Agenda Item No. 07 Evaluation of Preparatory phase of Projects SLNA held on 13 -02 -2013, suggested that only government organisations be considered for empanelling as midterm evaluators. We have addressed to all government agencies &institutions The response is very meagre i. e. Only 7 responded. Do. LR have empanelled the seven institutions. Kerala Agricultural University agreed to undertake evaluation provided the budget provision for evaluation (1% of the project cost) should be handed over directly from SLNA to the university account We have already engaged CPCRI, Kasargod and Kayamkulam for evaluation of 7 projects Evaluation of all the remaining projects may be entrusted to Kerala Agricultural University by execution of an Mo. U for evaluation of all projects under IWMP on a comprehensive project mode. SLNA may approve the above proposal.

Agenda Item No. 8: Overlapping of watershed programmes • Certain micro watersheds within the cluster of micro watersheds selected under IWMP is selected for implementation under other watershed development schemes like RIDF, WGDP etc. • This causes difficulty in implementation as well as duplication and overlapping. • To avoid this necessary instruction may be given to concerned agencies The SLNA may take a suitable decision.

Agenda Item No 12 Entrusting of WDT/WCDC with the task of DPR Preperation. In the quarterly review meeting held at the Mo. RD in New Delhi on 2/08/2013 it has been suggested that in the event of all WCDC/WDT experts are positioned in Kerala, the state can impart adequate technical training to the experts and entrust them with the task of preparation of DPR as per the instructions already issued under para 51 of Common Guidelines. A decision may be taken to entrust WDT/WCDC with the task of DPR preparation from next batch onwards. A series of trainings can be organised with the technical support of SIRD, Kottarakkara, CWRDM, Kozhikode and IWDMK, Chadayamangalam etc. -Submitting this proposal for the resolution of this committee.

Agenda Item No 13 Institutional Grant As per G. O. (MS)No. 141/2010 dated. 3/7/2010 and G. O. (Rt)NO. 1000/2013/LSGD dated, 16/04/2013 Government have accorded sanction for the creation of 10 posts in SLNA and 42 post in WCDCS. 8 posts in SLNA and 33 posts in WCDCs are filled up. Action is being taken to fill up the remaining posts. Annual requirement for meeting the establishment expenditure of SLNA and WCDCs comes to Rs. 243. 50 lakh. DOLR has released only an amount of Rs. 76. 20 lakh as Intuitional Grant to our State. Proposals along with Audit statement and Utilization Certificate have already been submitted to DOLR for releasing 2 nd instalment of Institutional Grant. At present no funds are available in SLNA for releasing funds to WCDCs for paying the salary of their staff. Hence as a temporary measure, the interest in Programme Fund may be re appropriated for the above purpose and the same may be recouped as and when the funds is received from DOLR. Details of annual requirement are enclosed as Annexure VI. Sanction may be accorded for re appropriating the interest of programme fund for paying salary.

Construction of check dam across Odamthode Watershed in Alathur, Palakkad district- IWMP-II-A 1/2009 -10 Odamthodu in kizhakkenchery panchayath has 173 families. People depend on agriculture for their daily living. The main water source in this area is odamthodu. The two sides of this watershed are rounded with forest land. It is above 885 feet above from sea level. Total area of Odamthode watershed is 614 ha but treatable area is 481 ha • There are 614 ha in Odamthodu watershed out of which 481 ha is selected as treatable area, for EPA work the estimated amount is 1500000. The EPA work in this region is a shuttered check dam across Odamthodu. The check dam construction is beneficial for the people in this region as it will reduce the water storage. • As this is a hilly area, the water that they get during rainy season flow away and it cause severe water shortage during summer. There is not enough water for agricultural purpose and it is badly affecting agricultural production. Due to the construction of check dam across Odamthodu, the people in the region came together and supported the work and are benefited in their agricultural works and for daily use of Water. Outcomes • Sufficient water for daily use • Enhancement to production of agriculture • Reduction of water scarcity • Brought Unity among the People of Odamthodu •

Palambra Thode: Kodakara in Thrissur District. IWMP 1/2010 -11 Palambra Thode is a rivulet in Varantharappilly Panchayath of Allencherry Padam_ Kallanthodu Microwatershed (17 K 28 b) having an area of 2483. 11 hec. This rivulet was completely in a shattered condition and used to submerge the locale during the monsoon. The VCB was too old to deliver any benefit to 52 acres of land of the populace. Then IWMP was appeared as a panacea. • The renovation of Plambra Thode was selected as an Entry Point Activity of Kodakara PIA earmarking Rs. 7 lakhs. A user group was immediately formed to start the work. The work was inaugurated on 08 -03 -2013 by Sri. Sivaraman, Block Panchayath President of Kodakara to complete it on 15 -05 -2013. Two sides of the stream was packed with rubbles spanning 80 meters and well plastered over it. A VCB having length of 8 meters were also built. The direct beneficiaries of this programme are the people living around this stream. OUTCOMES • (1)The water runs thorough this stream in the summer can be preserved to reduce the intensity of water scarcity to a greater extend • (2) Re-energise the paddy and other Agri. cultivation • (3) Checking the flow of water during monsoon to reduce the intensity of deluge. • As far as IWMP is concerned it is one of the better Advertisement/ Publicity of this Programme as the work is well executed and eye catching. In addition to this, it is a good example of great will and collective manpower of a user group that can be replicated in other programmes. •

Renovation of pond at Koyipra paddy field of Kannilamthodu watershed- IWMP Payyannur- Kannur district- IWMP 1/2010 -11 • The user group proposed renovation of pond at Koyipra paddy field. This pond had been beneficial for 200 farmers, as it was providing adequate water for cultivation. Over the years, the pond was neglected and the side walls were fallen down as a result its depth and water storage capacity were reduced the farmers were forced to stop cultivation for several years. The activities involved are in two phases 1) In Entry Point Activity (EPA), Extra deepening of pond by 2. 1 m and retaining wall construction using laterite boulders. 2) In NRM-Retaining wall, Pitching on sloped surface of the pond also steps for conveyance and protection wall allaround

OUTCOME…. . • We could increase storage capacity of pond by 473 cum through this work. • Paddy cultivation and Horticulture will increase • A soil mining company has been stopped from mining the land due to the construction of pond. So, the area has been saved from land degradation, decreasing water table leading to topographic disorder, habitat destruction, destruction of agricultural land etc. All these factors could have led to ecological imbalance of the area. • User group is planning for Aqua cultivation after completion of the work • As a result of the work, almost all the families of the watershed participate in all the IEC & capacity building programmes conducted by the PIA.

Kochukayal Pipe Culvert -Alappuzha District is IWMP-I/2010 -11 at Champakulam • A pipe culvert of 10 meter length and 3 meter width (Kochukayal Pipe Culvert) was constructed under entry point activity of IWMP • One side of the structure is paddy field and the other side is water logged area • This construction helps to regulate water flow in 65 acres of paddy field and the other side fresh water pisciculture is possible in an area of 4 acres and it is taken in the annual plan 2013 -14 in convergence with MGNREGS and Fisheries department. The project cost is Rs. 2, 20, 000/-. This work is done by the user group of Naduthuruthu. • It also provides a footway for 100 families and childrens of nearby Anganvadi where boat service is the only connectivity to other places. • The major problem faced by the people in the area is difficulty of material conveyance. The earth for the work was brought from Kottayam district, 40 Kms away by lorry, then carried to material transportation boat with the help of skilled labour. The poured earth again transported to the worksite by trolly. For the poor people who are living in the area, unable to bear huge conveyance charge. Hence the work taken through EPA was whole-heartedly welcomed by the natives.
