These canals take off from the Kariyakoil reservoir at the head reaches and carry a discharge of 20 cusecs each. In addition, about 2631.79 acres of existing wet lands under 8 anicuts of old ayacut are stabilized. The entire new ayacut lies in the Villages of Malayalapatti, Thumbal and Edaiyapatty in Attur Taluk. DTP—II-1 (2)—1aFeb. 7, 2018] TAMIL NADU GOVERNMENT GAZETTE 13 2. The Catchment area at the Dam site is 27.03 sq.miles under hilly area and the yield as worked out at this site is 336.79 Mcft. 3. The River Kariyakoil originates from the slopes of the Kalrayan Hills in Attur Taluk and it confl uences with Ammapalayam River near Thumbal and then it is called Thumbal River which is a tributary of the River Vasishtanadhi. The Thumbal River joins the main River Vasishtanadhi at Kottavadi Anicut. It receives large discharges during the Monsoon period. 4. There is no irrigation above the dam site. However, there are 8 anicuts within a distance of 25 km downstream of the dam site, irrigating about 1776.08 acres of direct and 855.71 acres of indirect ayacut. 5. The Full Reservoir Level of the Reservoir is 454.00 m and the Top Bund Length is at 456.00 m. The maximum Flood Discharge of 27,200 cusecs is allowed through the masonry spillway having 3 vents of 9.00 m x 6.10m with crest level of 447.90 m. 6. The right side main canal at L.S. 218.00 m and the left side main canal at L.S. 592.00m are at the sill level of 438.00m and the size of the vent way of the sluice is 0.90m x 1.50m for both the canals. The length of right side main canal is 10.84 km with a carrying capacity of 20.19 cusecs and it feeds an ayacut of 1775 acres of dry lands. The length of left side main canal is 10.325 km with a carrying capacity of 21.72 cusecs and it feeds an ayacut of 1825 acres of dry lands. 7. The supply for 2631.79 acres under the following 8 anicuts and 5 tanks will be let down through both the canal sluices and diverted into main River with the screw gearing arrangements:- Sl.

Control: Regulation of supply from the reservoir shall be the responsibility of the Assistant Engineer or Junior Engineer in-charge of the Reservoir (who will hereafter be called as controlling offi cer) under the overall direction of the Assistant Executive Engineer. 2. Old Irrigation: Water is not fl owing throughout the year in Kariyakoil River. Normally, water fl ow occurs from the month of July due to South West Monsoon and heavy fl ow realized during October to December due to North East Monsoon. The major cultivation is based on the above fl ow. The old ayacut of 2631.79 acres under the 8 Nos. of anicuts will be stabilized during 1st September to 31st December. To safeguard the riparian irrigation rights of the traditional ayacutdhars in the lower reaches who were dependent on fl ow in the river even before the project was conceived (i.e old ayacut) initially water for irrigation shall normally be let out in the river on priority basis so as to cater to the needs of the anicuts and tanks under old ayacut in the manner prescribed below:-14 TAMIL NADU GOVERNMENT GAZETTE [Part II—Sec. 1 (a) In order to provide irrigation to the direct old ayacut of 1776.08 acres, the natural fl ow of the Kariakoil River shall be allowed directly without impounding in the Reservoir. Adopting a duty of 50 acres per cusecs with an average seepage loss of 20% over a distance of about 25 km the total requirement of water for 1776.08 acres comes to 45 cusecs. This quantum of water will be released from the reservoir through the right main canal and left main canal, whenever the water level is below the crest level and through spill way whenever the water level is above crest level. During this period, necessary turn system shall be adopted to assure equitable supply to this old direct ayacut. (b) To safeguard the riparian rights of the old ayacutdhars of the indirect ayacut of 855.71 acres, 2/3rd capacity of the existing fi ve tanks i.e (1) Kalleripatti tank, (2) Abinavam Tank, (3) Puthiragoundampalayam Tank, (4) Chinnammasamudram Tank, (5) Errammasamudram Tank (Panai Eri) under the above anicuts is allowed to be fi lled through the River before impounding the water in Kariyakoil Reservoir.
