Objective 2: Assessment of existing water demands for agriculture purposes, residential, industry, energy and environmental flows for the command and catchment areas of the two-canal irrigation systems (by CSWCRTI, Denradun).
2.1 Developing methodology for existing demand assessment
for each sector
2.2 Water demand assessment (for the last two years of operations of both the canals that is 2006 and 2007) for agriculture, domestic, industry based on primary survey in the
canal command areas
2.3 Water demand assessment (first two years of the project that is 2008 and 2009) for agriculture, domestic, industry based
on primary survey in the canal command areas
2.4 Water demand met from groundwater using tubewells for agriculture, domestic, industry based on secondary survey (for
2006, 2007, 2008 and 2009) in the canal command areas
2.5 Assessment of energy (animal power, electricity and fossil
fuels) used for this purpose
2.6 Secondary data collection for land use, soil, soil properties, ground water levels, electricity generation and stream discharge
in the canal command areas
2.7 Group discussion and supplementary information required

Objective 3: Assessment of future water demands for agriculture, domestic, industrial, energy and environmental flows for the command areas of the two canal irrigation systems (by CSWCRTI)
3.1 Developing methodology for future demand assessment
for each sector 3.2 Secondary data collection for possible changes in land
use, soil, soil properties, ground water levels, electricity generation and stream discharge in the canal command
areas for future years 3.3 Water demand assessment for agriculture, and
domestic purposes based on the projection methods
identified in 3.1 3.4 Water demand assessment for industry based on
projection methods identified in 3.1 3.5 Other databases (secondary sources if needed) for all
the above sectors, 3.6 Water demand of groundwater using tubewells for
agriculture, domestic, industry based on future projection
methods 3.7 Assessment of energy (animal power, electricity and

4.1 Framework for Economic Cost Benefit analysis for
canal irrigation system 4.2 Framework to capture energy linkages 4.3 Framework to Capture Climate change linkages (GHG
emissions due to energy used for irrigation purposes) 4.4 Integrating these individual frameworks in a broad
analytical framework
Objective 5: Application of energy-economic-environment models to integrate energy and water implications on Indian agriculture at national level (by IIMA)
5.1 Model selection and validation 5.2 Linking water balance output from hydrology model
into energy models 5.3 Elaborating Energy-Economic-climate linkages and

Deliverables
• There is a specific year-wise and institute-wise list
of technical deliverables and milestones at the end
of each financial year. These are linked with the 6
objectives and include:
– Frameworks (individual and integrated)
– Databases
– Case studies for 2 canal irrigation systems, including cost
benefit analyses
– Water demand projections (methodology and projections)
– Water availability for agriculture (projections)
– Interlinking agriculture, water and energy through
soft-linking hydrology and economic-energy-environment
models
– Impacts of climate change on the above
– Policy implications
Deliverable Timings
• Half-yearly progress reports (technical)
– INRM and CSWCRTI to send to IIMA
immediately upon completion of 6 months
– The report should follow the work coverage as
detailed in the “Project implementation plan” of
the approved proposal
– IIMA to synthesize and send to NAIP within one
month
• Annual Statement of expenditure and
Audited reports
