Subproject 3 Clause Samples

Subproject 3. 4.2.1 Socio-economic Conditions along Galle- Matara 132 kV Transmission Line Water Resources: Surface water availability in Galle and Matara districts is influenced by the annual rainfall and its distribution over the year. Mean annual rainfall in the two districts is about 2600 mm and the monthly rainfall remains above 150 mm for about 75% of the year. Also two large rivers; Nilwala Ganga and Gin Ganga originating in the Sinharaja rain forest flow across the two districts. Therefore, the surface water availability in the region is generally favourable. Infrastructure Facilities: Galle-Matara region has a network of roads that lead to most interior parts of the two districts, though the quality of minor roads is not very high. The total length of roads in the Southern province that encompasses the two districts is 1290 km.
