Assess river floods and mitigation measures and early warning systems for possible flash floods. 5.1 Collecting the rainfall data & river flow. 5.2 Preparation of digital elevation maps. 5.3 Capacity building programs for new technological applications. 5.4 Introducing flood mitigation structures. Develop water resource management plans and strategies for selected rivers in Sri Lanka adopting traditional knowledge and new technology. Adopt water-efficient technologies to ‘harvest’ water, conserve solid moisture (e.g. crop residue retention) and reduce siltation and saltwater intrusion. Modification of irrigation techniques, including amount, timing or technology.
