Agreement between Andhra Pradesh and Orissa. The project was appraised by the World Bank during 1983 under Credit 1997(IM). It is located near village Kenduguda in Gunupur Sub-Division of Rayagada District of Orissa, 130 KM away from Berhampur, it is located along the State Highway No.4<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Project was cleared by the Planning Commission in the year 1980.

The revised cost of the project stands Rs.10588.22 Lacs as per schedule of rates 1994.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As per original programme it was contemplated to complete the project works within 10 years form the date of commencement. Due to rise of cost of materials and financial constraint, the progress of the project got suffered. Then the project was included under World Bank aided WRCP Scheme Completion for completion of balance works. The date of completion was reschedules to the year 1999.<br>&nbsp;The main components of the project are Dam &amp; Dykes, Spillway, and Head race of the main canal.

Excavation of Main Canal, Branch Calans and Distributaries are completed. In case of minors and sub-minors the progress is about 66.50% of WRCP works. The Planning and design of Water Courses and Drainage system have already been completed by M\/s GMS Power Packs Pvt. Ltd., Bhubaneswar. The components covered under WRCP are enclosed in Annexure-I for information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The G.C.A. of the project is 13065 Ha and the ultimate potential (C.C.A.) of the project is 9800 Ha. Being 75% of G.C.A&#8230; The designed ayacut during for Khariff crop is 8653 Ha. While that of Rabi is 4950 Ha. Potential created prior to WRCP i.e. 1995 is 4000 Ha. Potential created during WRCP is 4400 Ha. Hence total irrigation potential created since inception of the project up to Khariff-2002 is 8400 Ha. And programme for 2002-03 is Nil. However irrigation water has been supplied during Khariff- 2003 to an extent of around 5000Ha due to lean monsoons and acute shortage of inflow of water into the reservoir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Official name<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 Badanalla Dam<br><strong>Impounds<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 Badanalla River<br><strong>Locale<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8211; Rayagada<br><strong>Maintained &amp; Operated by<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8211; Department of Water Resources<br><strong>Length<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 435m<br><strong>Height<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 48m<br><strong>Opening date<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 1997<br><strong>Construction Cost<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8211; 1182.23 Cr INR<br><strong>Capacity<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 67.1 million m3<br><strong>Catchment area<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8211; 83400 km2<br><strong>Surface area<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2013 1,085 ha<br><strong>Geographical Data (Location of map)<\/strong>&nbsp;&#8211; 20.39\u00b0N 82.66\u00b0E<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Location_information_Badanalla_Dam\"><\/span>Location information Badanalla Dam:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Address: Kandhachakunda Village, Rayagada District, 765025 Odisha.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"ClimateWeather_in_Badanalla_Dam\"><\/span><strong>Climate\/Weather in Badanalla Dam:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The climate is tropical with the rainfall is due to the South West&nbsp;monsoon.<strong>Summer &#8211; March to May<strong><\/strong><\/strong>Average Minimum Temperature &#8211; 36\u00b0 CAverage Minimum Temperature &#8211; 24\u00b0 CAverage Precipitation &#8211; 40 mm<strong>Monsoon &#8211; June to October<strong><\/strong><\/strong>Average Minimum Temperature &#8211; 32\u00b0 CAverage Minimum Temperature &#8211; 25\u00b0 CAverage Precipitation &#8211; 220 mm<strong>Summer &#8211; March to May<strong><\/strong><\/strong>Average Minimum Temperature &#8211; 28\u00b0 CAverage Minimum Temperature &#8211; 17\u00b0 CAverage Precipitation &#8211; 23 mm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"History_of_Badanalla_Dam\"><\/span>History of Badanalla Dam:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Languages_in_Badanalla_Dam\"><\/span>Languages in Badanalla Dam:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Odia<\/li><li>Hindi<\/li><li>English<\/li><li>Bengali<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Interesting_things_to_do_Badanalla_Dam\"><\/span>Interesting things to do Badanalla Dam:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>There are a number of exciting things to do in this place.
