Reconstruction of Olweny Irrigation Scheme and Agoro Irrigation Scheme (Lot 1)

Project involved

• Assessing rehabilitation/reconstruction requirements, carrying out relevant technical investigations and studies (comprising of but not limited to hydrological and hydraulic studies, topographical surveys, geotechnical investigations, socio-economic assessment), and preparing engineering designs to facilitate rehabilitation and construction of civil and hydraulic structures.
• Supervising the rehabilitation works ensuring that they are constructed in accordance with the design specifications aimed at restoring the irrigation potential of the identified schemes so that they can contribute towards improvement of farm incomes, rural livelihood and food security. The focus was to physically rehabilitate the schemes and put in place a management system for operation and maintenance that would reduce the burden on the government and make the scheme farmers take ownership of the operation and maintenance for sustainability.
