Check Dams- 5000 (CM)

The primary purpose of a check dam is to reduce the effective slope of water channels, thereby reducing the velocity of flowing water, allowing sediment to settle and reducing erosion. Local communities are involved in each and every aspect of this scheme and they are be responsible for carrying out the maintenance and other costs when required. NGO MPAP Danna with the help of its Cos/VOs identified following three villages for construction of 3000 Cubic Meter(CM) check dams:


Rain Water Harvesting Structures

In order to utilize the surface water source, it was proposed by the COs and VOs of the project area to construct 18 Rain Water Harvesting Structures in the villages selected by local communities. These Structures to harness the rain and stream water for irrigation purpose and may aNGO MPAP act as soil conservation structure, which reduces the sediment load in the streams. Furthermore, these structures enable local communities to store sufficient quantity of water for the consumption of their livestock especially in dry weather and to support the activities like kitchen gardening. NGO MPAP Danna hired the services of a civil engineer to get the cost estimates and design of the water harvesting structures.

COs are takeing extra care to ensure that the main beneficiaries of these water harvesting structures should be the vulnerable or small landholding farmers. This scheme has been aimed for the following villages of U/C Danna:

Retaining Walls- 6000 (CM)

During the heavy monsoon rainfall of last year, there have been reported several cases of losses of agricultural lands either through land sliding or by the floods in local nallahs. In order to protect these affected lands from further losses and destruction, COs strongly demanded the construction of the retaining walls. Due to financial constraint NGO MPAP Danna has decided with the consensus of its COs to target following 3 most affected villages for this scheme:

Bagna, Darbang, Dacha ,Bagla Sikhan
