Command
-economic conditions of the farmers. The
Area CAD
Development and Water programme was restructured and renamed as
Management (CADWM) progranmme in the year 2004.
oanuah Caidl project was included under
vear 1974 havigtotal Command Area Development (CAD) programme m te
two canal
Culturable Command Area (CCA) a 60 Jakh ha The
systems Eastern Canal System and Gandak canal project corisis
Scheme is 3.99 lakh ha. Western Canal System. The CCA of Western Gandak Canal
Command Area Development (CAD) programme in
1974. Since then 2.81 lakh ha area ofcCA of Western Gandak Canal Scheme had also been
initiated in
the proiect has been covered under CAD
out of which 1.79 lakh ha has been covered by works
katcha field channels and 1.02 lakh ha has been
pucca field channels. Therefore, the balance area left covered oy
for command area development is 1.18
lakn hd.
In principle, the control and management of irrigation network
below the government controlled
outlets is the responsibility of Water Users' Association, As land is not
acquired by government for
CADWM inteventions and the assets created under CADWM not
accounted as government assets, tne
regular maintenance of field channel created under CADWM programme is not be construed as
responsibility of the government; and funds are not be released by default for its routine maintenance.
After construction of field channel it is handed over to the concerned WUA. The repair and maintenance
of the constructed field channels is the responsibility of the concerned WUA.
In the year 2015-16, CADWM Programme has been included as "HarKhetkoPani' component
under 'Prime Minister KrishiSinchaiYojana (PMKSY)'. Twoschemes of Bihar namely Durgawati Reservoir
Scheme and Punpun Barrage Scheme has been included in the list of 99 - Prioritized projects under
'Accelerated Irrigation Benefit Programme (AlBP)'. Out of these only Durgawati CADVWM project is being
executed.
For CADWM related works of other irrigation schemes, a new scheme namely 'Incentivization
Scheme for Bridging Irrigation Gap (1SBIG)' has been proposed by Ministry of Jal Shakti, Govt. of India
which is yet to be approved by Govt. of India. The CADWM related work of balance CCA of Western
Gandak Canal scheme will be proposed under ISBIG. As per draft guidelines of ISBIG, 30% of balance CCA is
mandatory to be covered by Micro Irrigation (M.).
The CAD Works should ensure flow of channelized irrigation water to every individual
farm under the targeted Chak/outlet command through the combination of lined and
unlined channels.
The layout of field channel should be designed to feed farnms on both sides of the
channels, and an optimal length of the channel network (including both lined and unlined
portions) should be arrived in amanner acceptable to the farmers of the targeted outlets
command.
At each head, suitable device for regulating/controlling flow of water should be provided
So as to prevent wastage of water. The field channels should remain above the adjacent
farm levels for ensuring gravity flow of water to the fields.
3.4 SCOPE OF WORK
Analysis of the existing provisions in the project and preparation of the project as a development plan related
to irrigation, flood control with a specific objective of providing best techno-economical viable methodology

improvement in
existing canal system, drainage improvement and command area developmentand
conjunctive use of groundwater with a provision of micro irrigation along with mitigations of
with improvement of drainage tloods alois
system.
Under ie scope of work, the consultant has tonrenare three DPR's in two phases which are
as folloWS!-
A. PHASE-I
Irrigation
The objectives of project are to improve the existing canal
system and maximize dgricuture
production in order to enhance the income of local farmers. The various works proposed should
Comprise optimize use of waterand automation technology i.e installation of discharge measurement
devices & SCADAsystem for canal operations. Depending upon the topography & techno-economical
Viability, the recharge wells, lift irrigation, bandhara irrigation& sub-surface irrigation system will also
be explored & depending upon the soil strata & climatic data by adopting the fundamental irrigation
practices like crop rotation, irrigation frequency &sub-surface drainage to minimize the salinity of soil
will also be taken into consideration. Utmost upgradation of canals through WAPCOS, construction of
sufficient number of outlets and ghats and plantation & beautification works should also be taken into
consideration

Hydrologicalevaluation through application of HydrologicalDecision Support System Too
HydrologIcal Decision Support System Tool will be applied to the delineated plant
watershed.
Hyarological Decision Support System should be developed interactive software developed on AC
GIS platform for doing complete
spatial analysis.
Hydrological Decision Support System shouldcomprise software Modules on hydroloEY
contaminant transport, sediment movement, crop growth, agricultural BMPs (Best Management
Practices), soil moisture.
Tool should have strong computational ability that captures physics of nature such as infiltration
of raintall in soil matrix, movement of soil mojsture, conversion of rainfall in to surface and
groundwater, evaporation from surface, plant and trees.
Derives physically based inputs (climate data, land, soil)
Uses Globally relevant data from satellite and secondary sources
SRTM (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission) satellite data on topography
b. Indian Meteorological Department (|MD)
C. Food andAgriculture Organization (FAO) soil data, 2012
d. IWMI (International Water Management Institute) Land use data
Currently analyzes 35 years of daily rainfalldata
Outputs distributed both in space and time (outputs can be captured in space in form of maps
that show pockets of highs and lows; and variance can be seen over 35 years)
Converts on-ground databases into millionsof interactive pixels
The analysis of the above databases will be processed (Inputs) to obtain Hydrological Decision Support
System outcomes.
Note: -Water Resources Department ,Bihar will provide survey and investigation data if available with
them to consultant. In case of unavailability of data, the consultant will have to make their own
arrangement for the same.
B. PHASE II
