Research Activities under HP-II Purpose Driven Study (PDS)  PDS on “Optimisation of stream gauge and rain gauge network for Upper Bhima basin in Maharashtra” was carried out by CWPRS in association with Govt. of Maharashtra (GoM).  Bhima basin up to Ujjani reservoir was chosen as a pilot basin for the study. Scope of the work included reviewing the preliminary work done by GoM and providing additional technical inputs.  Three workshops on the study were conducted during and jointly by CWPRS and Government of Maharashtra (GoM) at Jal Vigyan Bhawan, Nasik; with about 100 officials trained through the workshops. 12

Research Activities under HP-II (Contd...) Purpose Driven Study (PDS)  Technical Report based on the study was submitted to WRD, GoM and PCS in December  Five technical papers were published in international/ national journals based on the results of PDS. 13

Research Activities under HP-II (Contd...) Purpose Driven Study (PDS)  For Hydrographic survey for Tawa reservoir CWPRS completed field survey jointly with the WRD officials of Govt of Madhya Pradesh during Feb.-Mar, Report on the study under preparation. 14

Research Activities under HP-II DSS (Planning)  CWPRS representives actively participated in all the meetings and workshops, training programmes of DSS (P) during conceptualisation of DSS (P) model, customisation and scenario simulation stages of DSS (P)  CWPRS is a member of `Maharashtra State Decision Support System (DSS) Expert Group’  Generic DSS solutions software developed by the DSS (P) consultants, (DHI, Denmark) is installed on the workstation computer procured for the purpose by CWPRS. 15

Research Activities under HP-II DSS (Planning) 16 Participation of Dr. C. Ramesh, SRO, CWPRS in the 3-weeks training course on “Use of DSS in Water Resources Management and Application of the Developed DSS Software”, organised by DHI, Denmark during 19 th September to 7 th October 2011

Financial Achievements In accordance with WB document of HP-II, the budgetary cost allocated for CWPRS is about 3.69 crore initially and subsequently revised to 4.64 crore during various RCTs.

 SCADA system developed at CWPRS under HP II will be utilised to carry our research in this field, to demonstrate automated control of canal operations and impart training of officials from various state and central agencies.  Trainings received by CWPRS officers in DSS(P) and the infrastructure developed at CWPRS for DSS(P) would be useful during the sustenance of DSS(P), for arranging trainings in this field and also basin specific studies can be undertaken.  Physical and IT infrastructure strengthened during HP-II would be effectively utilised for undertaking client sponsored studies and research in the field of Hydrology and Water Resources Analysis. 18 Post project plan for implementation of HP-II activities

 Periodical (internal and external) review was helped in achieving the physical and financial targets of the project.  Collaboration with state/ central agencies was helped CWPRS to know about their activities and its implementation schemes in water resources projects.  Better technical exchange of ideas with national/ international experts would be helpful.  Training on procurement procedures and reimbursement during the implementation period of the project from to time was helpful to CWPRS. 19 Lessons learnt from HP-II

Plan for information Dissemination CWPRS had shared its experience in hydrological and water resources studies through organising 10+1 training programmes on various technical aspects. Further CWPRS officials had participated in various National/ International training programmes and workshops organised at different institutes under HP II. CWPRS can play active role in R&D activities under the proposed HP III. 20
