1. Salient Features of Krishna District

Krishna District with its district headquarters at Machilipatnam is the coastal

district of Andhra Pradesh. It was formerly called as Machilipatnam District. Later it

was renamed as Krishna District after the holy river Krishna, by adding certain

Taluks of the abolished Guntur District in 1859. Again in 1925, Krishna District was

further divided into Krishna and West Godavari Districts. It lies between 15º 43’ 02’’ and 17º 08’ 17’’ of the North latitude and 80º 07’ 24’’ and 81º 34’ 51’’ of East

longitude which extends over an area of 8727 Sq. Kms. with a coastline of 88 Kms.

It was surrounded on the east by Bay of Bengal and West Godavari District, on

south by Bay of Bengal on west by Guntur and Nalgonda Districts and on north by

Khammam District.

1.1 Administrative Setup

The District is divided into 50 Mandals (Fig.1) covering 4 Revenue Divisions viz., 1.

Bandar 2. Vijayawada 3. Gudivada 4. Nuzvid. The District is naturally divided into

Delta and Upland Zones. All the Mandals existing in Bandar, Gudivada divisions

and part of Vijayawada division (Penamaluru, Kankipadu, Thotlavalluru part of

Vijayawada Rural) comprise delta and Unguturu, Vuyyuru, Pamidimukkala and

part of Gannavaram and Bapulapadu Mandals of Nuzvid Division and all the

mandals existing in Nuzvid division and the remaining Mandals of Vijayawada

Division constitute upland (DES, 2015). The upland consists of an undulating

broken terrain by low ranges of Eastern Ghats. The main sources of Irrigation in

upland are tanks. It is being benefited by the water of Nargarjuna Sagar also. The

delta land is being irrigated by canals of river Krishna. There are five municipalities

viz., 1. Machilipatnam 2. Pedana 3. Gudivada 4.Nuzvid and 5. Jaggaiahpeta and

one Municipal Corporation in Vijayawada.

Fig.1 Administrative Boundaries of Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh

1.2 Drainage

The famous river Krishna is flowing in this District (Fig.2). It is perennial in nature

and flows along the western boundary of the District. Part of upland mandals as

well as the delta mandals is now having the facility of utilizing the Krishna river

water for irrigation purpose. Krishna being a great and sacred river of South India

like Godavari and Cauvery flows almost across the Peninsula from West to East

and finally joins the sea by two principal mouths. Among the other streams and

tributaries Muniyeru, Budameru and Tammileru are significant. Muniyeru is the

chief tributary of the river Krishna and it flows from north to south across erstwhile

Jaggaiahpeta and Nandigama taluks. This is an additional irrigation source

available in this District. The Budameru is another hill stream which flows through

several mandals viz., Mylavaram, G.Konduru, Unguturu, Vijayawada, Gannavaram,

Gudivada, Mandavalli, Kaikaluru and finally falls into Kolleru Lake. Agriculturally,

the importance of the above sources is more as they not only feed minor irrigation

tanks but also provide for lift irrigation sources and ground water potential. South

of Avanigadda the river Krishna bifurcates into four branches before it debouches

into the Bay of Bengal. The general drainage pattern is dendritic to sub-dendritic.

The drainage density is high in consolidated formations, low in semi-consolidated

formations, whereas in alluvial areas the density is meagre (CGWB, 2013).

Fig.2 Drainage Network and Surface Water bodies of the District

The Kolleru Lake having a shallow depression area of about 388.5 Sq. Km lies in

Kaikaluru and Kalidindi mandals and is located between Krishna and Godavari

delta and spans into two districts - Krishna and West Godavari. It acts as a

reservoir for drainage water of surrounding delta areas during monsoon and it

dries up in summer. Kolleru Lake is the largest freshwater lake in Asia. The lake

serves as a natural flood-balancing reservoir for these two rivers. The lake is fed

directly by water from the seasonal Budameru and Tammileru rivers, and is

connected to the Krishna and Godavari systems by over 68 inflowing drains and

channels. The lake is an important habitat for an estimated 20 million resident and

migratory birds. It is known the world over for the famous Kolleru Bird Sanctuary.

1.3 Climate and Rainfall

Tropical climate conditions with extreme hot summer and cold winter prevail in

this District. April to June is the hottest months with high temperature in May. The

climate of the district is moderate and characterized by tropical rainy climate with

aggressive summer. The period from December to middle of February is generally

the season of fine weather. The summer season is from March to May. This is

followed by monsoon period from June to September, the post monsoon from

October to December and the winter season from January to February. The

monsoon usually breaks in the middle of June and brings good rains up to middle

of October. The average annual rainfall of the district is 1011.2 mm, which ranges

from nil rainfall in January and March to 216.8 mm in July. The mean seasonal

rainfall distribution is 700 mm in southwest monsoon (June- September), 241 mm

in northeast monsoon (Oct-Dec), 6.3 mm rainfall in winter (Jan-Feb) and 64 mm in

summer (March–May). The percentage distribution of rainfall, season-wise, is

69.25% in southwest monsoon, 23.82 % in northeast monsoon, 0.62 percentage in

winter and 6.31% in summer (CGWB, 2013). In general, the amount of rainfall

increases from west to east. The distribution of rainfall in Krishna District is shown

in the form of isohyets (Fig.3).The mean daily maximum temperature in the District

is about 38°C in May and the mean daily minimum temperature is about 20°C in

December/ January. Temperature in the District begins to rise from the middle of

February till May. With the onset of southwest monsoon in June, the temperature

decreases to about 20°C and is more or less uniform during the monsoon period.

The relative humidity in the District is of the order of 80% in the mornings

throughout the year, whereas in the evenings the relative humidity varies from

about 70 to more than 80% (CGWB, 2013).

1.4 Agriculture and Soils

Endowed with a rich variety of soils, the district occupies an important place in

agriculture which is the most important occupation and paddy is the main food

crop produced. According to agricultural census 2012-13 the gross cropped area

of the district was 7.01 Lakh Hects of which gross irrigated area was 3.63 lakh

Hects. While 2011-12 the gross cropped area of the district was 7.26 Lakh Hects of

which gross irrigated area was 3.75 lakh Hects (DES, 2015). Three types of soils

viz., 1. Black soil which constitute 57.6% of the villages 2. Sandy Clay-loams with

22.3% and 3. Red loamy with 19.4% of the villages are prevalent in this District,

while a small sandy soils constitute 0.7% along the fringes of the seacoast.

Krishna District accounts for approximately 37 per cent of the total aqua farm area

of Andhra Pradesh (Fig.6). Many paddy cultivators have shifted to shrimp culture,

attracted by the tremendous difference in profitability. Apart from this, in Krishna

District, where water salinity is a problem, many agriculturists shifted to

aquaculture, because farmers at the tail end of the irrigation canals had little

access to fresh water, and are forced to use saline water. In this situation, shrimp

culture stands as a promising option. The profits made in the first year are used to

buy or lease more land for the second season, which lead the aqua farms to

increase manifold. Mandal wise distribution of existing aquaculture and

dry/abandoned/potential areas is given in the Table-1. High resolution satellite

remote sensing based aquaculture mapping in Krishna District shows that the

existing aquaculture area is 60,226 ha and dry/abandoned/potential for

aquaculture development is 23,085 ha (APSAC, 2017a).

1.8 Important Places

1.8a Places of Tourist Interest

Vijayawada: The 4014 feet long Prakasam Barrage-road bridge-cum regulator

across river Krishna which links Krishna and Guntur districts and benefits an

ayacut of about 12 lakh acres in Krishna Delta offers a pleasant sight. There is a 56

feet Stupa on the Gandhi Hill besides a library on Gandhian literature along with a

children train and a Planetarium on the hill. The Mogalrajapuram caves are

another attraction for tourists. Of the three caves temples dating back to fifth

century, only one is still in good shape. It contains the idols of Lord Nataraja and

Vinayaka among others. The Arthanareeswara Murthy found here is regarded as

the only one in the entire South India. The other famous caves are the Undavalli

caves, situated about 8 Kms from Vijayawada. These caves were built in 7th

century A.D (DES, 2015).

2. Geology and Mineral Resources of the District

2.1 Geology of Krishna District

Krishna district is underlain by variety of geological formations comprising from

the oldest Archaeans to Recent Alluvium (Fig.7). Hydrogeologically, these

formations are classified as consolidated (Hard), semi-consolidated (Soft) and

unconsolidated (Soft) formations. The consolidated formations include crystallines

(Khondalites, Charnockites and granitic gneisses) and meta sediments (Dolomites,

shales, phyllites and quartzites) of Archaean and Pre-cambrian periods

respectively. The semi consolidated formations are represented by Tertiary

formations (Rajahmundry & Gollapalli sandstones) and unconsolidated formations

comprise deltaic alluvial deposits of Quaternary period (CGWB, 2013).

Consolidated formations occur in the northern part of the District. Among

consolidated formations occurrence of meta sediments is restricted to NW part of

the District i.e., in parts of Jaggayyapeta, Penuganchiprolu, Nandigama and

Chandralapadu mandals. Semi-consolidated formations occur in the north-

eastern part of the District and its extension is limited to small area i.e., in parts of

Musunuru, Nuzividu, Bapulapadu and Gannavaram mandals. Unconsolidated

formations occur in the southern part of the District i.e., in the delta area.

The Geological Survey of India (GSI, 2000) gave a detailed account of the

geology/lithology of the District with a map on 1: 2,50,000 scale (Fig.7) and an

elaborate legend with stratigraphic sequence (Fig.8). The description given by GSI

is as follows.

The Eastern Ghats Super Group comprising Khondalite and Chamockite Groups is

exposed in the central part of the upland area. They consist of quartz, K-feldspar,


DMG, GoAP

18

garnet, sillimanite, graphite, with or without corundum. In the north eastern part, a

number of calc granulite and quartzite bands are present, within Khondalite. Acid

and intermediate varieties of charnockite with patches of pyroxene granulite

metagabbro (north of Krishna River in the Kondapalli hill ranges) and minor

magnetite-hypersthene-quartz granulite extend SW of Kondavidu hill ranges.

Layered igneous rocks comprising anorthosite, gabbroic noritic anorthisite, leuco

gabbro noritic gabbro and pyroxenite, associated with chromite ore occur as

feeble bands within chamockites (GSI, 2000).

The rocks of the Peninsular Gneissic Complex are mostly in the form of

migmatized gneisses with enclaves of older metamorphic rocks, such as

amphibolite, pyroxene granulite and actinolite schist. The grey granite gneiss,

which is mostly confined to the western part is always well banded, the bands

being alternately light and dark in colour. The gneissic rocks are intruded by dykes

of dolerite, pegmatite and aplite. The rocks of Archaean age are overlain by

Proterozoic cover sequences of Cuddapah Super Group and Kumool Group. The

contact between the older crystallines and the younger sediments is marked by a

pronounced unconformity known as the Eparchaean Unconformity. The

Cuddapah Super Group is represented in the area by Cumbum Formation (Shale,

phyllite, dolomite, limestone, quartzite). The Kurnool Group comprises

Banganapalle Conglomerate Quartzite and Narji Limestone. Micaceous quartzite

of Mulug Group of Pakhal Super Group occurs as discontinuous outcrops east of

Nandigama. The Pakhal Super Group is considered to be the time-equivalent of

Cuddapah Super Group.

Rocks of Upper Gondwana Group of the Gondwana Super Group, comprising

Tirupathi Sandstone, Gollapalle, Chintalapudi Sandstone and Kamthi Sandstone


DMG, GoAP

19

are exposed north, northwest and east of Nuzvid. These rocks trend NE-SW with

20° dip towards SE.

Unconformably overlying the Gondwana rocks is a small patch of Rajahmundry

Sandstone, occurring NE of Nuzvid. The sandstone is brick red in colour and

contains nodules of clay. The Krishna River built up its delta, south of Vijayawada.

It flows southwards up to Avanigadda, where it bifurcates into two channels, the

main channel continues to flow southwards up to its confluence with the sea near

Nagayalanka and the branch at Avanigadda flows eastwards up to its confluence

with the sea near Hamsaldeevi.

2.2 Mineral Resources of Krishna District

As per literature (GSI, 2000) the following minerals are available in Krishna District.

Diamond: Ancient workings for diamond the gravel beds of Krishna River are seen

near Paritala, Mogaluru, Buttalapadu, Alkur, Kondavatikallu. Between the years

1890 and 1894, the Hyderabad Deccan Company carried out prospecting of

these deposits and recovered nearly 2,500 diamonds. In recent years, the gravel

occurrences near Kanchikacherla, Chadralapadu, Malavalli, Ustapalli were

prospected by G.S.I and a few diamonds recovered.

Sulphur: Native sulphur occurs near Kana over an area of 10 to 15 hectares, down

to a depth of 6 m. Sulphur is impregnated as tiny grains over clayey soil, the

concentration of which increases gradually from the surface downward, the

maximum being at a depth of 0.5 m. Bacterial activity is considered to be the

cause for the precipitation of sulphur.

Barytes: Barytes in small quantities is found near Vemulanarva.

Mica: Old workings of mica area a r e seen near Jammalavoidurgam, Gasavidu

and Lakshmipuram of Tiruvuru taluk.

In view of the present demand for chromite for Visakhapatnam Steel Plant, it may

be worthwhile to carry out detailed exploration to assess the grade and reserves.

As regards diamonds, detailed exploration of diamondiferrous gravels of Paritala

and other areas is taken up by Geological Survey of India to assess the potentiality

of the deposits. Most of the iron ore from Jaggayapeta area has already been

mined and exported and the mining industry was closed down (DES, 2015).

Limestone

Occurrence: Limestone occurs only in Jaggayyapet mandal of Krishna

District. The litho unit Limestone is generally associated in the area with Shale

Quartzites and Phyllites of the Palnad Basin. The Narji Limestone formation of

Palnad Sub-basin is of economic value. The area is occupied by the flaggy

outcrops of Narji Limestone with localized patches of brown soil, lateritic gravel

and intercalations of shale. Based on the shale content the limestone is divided

into high grade, low grade and shally limestone of which high & low grade are

potential for cement manufacturing. As such the cement plants are established in

the mandal Jaggayyapet.

The Limestone is dark gray in colour, fine grained and massive. honeycomb and

elephant-skin patterns are in the weathered surface of limestone due to differential

weathering exhibiting conchoidal fracture. The reports on the area inferred the

limestone is cement grade basing on the silica content and chemical

characteristics.

The mineral limestone occurs exclusively in the villages viz. Jayanthipuram,

Ravirala, Budavada, Vedadri, Muktyala and R.F of the Jaggayyapeta mandal.

There are 13 mining leases exists in the area. They are consuming the mineral for

their own cement plants.


DMG, GoAP

24

In the district there are five cement plants established basing on the immense

limestone potential of the area. These units/plants are contributing not only

revenue to the exchequer and also providing employment directly or indirectly.

Whereas the Government Enterpriser M/s. Rastriya Ispat Nigam Limited (RINL) is

also having a mining lease and using the limestone as flux in its steel plant at

Visakhapatnam blending with the Dolomite etc., available in their captive mines

elsewhere in the State as well as other States.

Quartz

Occurrence:

Geologically the occurrence of Quartz in the district as intrusive belongs to

Peninsular Gneissic Complex of Archaean Age. The vein deposit of the quartz in

the district observe in association with two litho units viz. (1) Quartz vein with

Feldspar as Hanging wall and (2) quartz vein with muscovite schist. The quartz

body is generally covered by the soil and Feldspar in the lower altitudes i.e. on

either side of the Quartz vein. The Quartz is massive, glassy in nature. It is

colourless to translucent. General strike of the Quartz vein is NW-SE. Feldspar

occurs as a hanging wall over the exposed Quartz Bodies.

Quartz mineral is precisely occur in 5 Mandals viz,(1) Kambhampadu, Vallampatla

Quartz is widely used in the paint industry and glass industry.

Chromite

Occurrence:

Chromite occurs here as small impersistent irregular lenses and disseminations

within steeply dipping pyroxenites. From the traces of the ore body noticed on the

walls of two old pits, it appears that chromite is in very small proportion in the

pyroxenite. The pyroxenite bodies themselves are small, further it is found that


DMG, GoAP

27

most of the chromite here is of poor quality. It also reported that the pits in the

locality have reached a depth of about 5 to 15 m.

Three types of chromite, viz, hard, soft and detrital ores, occur in the area. The hard

ore is a well-cemented, massive and dense chromite ore with or without

pyroxenes and occurs as lenses, bands, veins and pockets. The disseminated ores

rarely give rise to such hard ores near the surface. Thin veinlets of pyroxenite are

commonly seen in the hard ore.

Disseminations of chromite within the pyroxenite give rise to soft ore on

weathering. The pyroxenes are easily broken down by percolating waters thus

releasing the cementing bond between the pyroxenes and the chromite grains.

This soft ore is a granular mixture of weathered pyroxenes and chromite.

The detrital ore is a dark brown, hard and dense float ore. Limonite occurs as

coatings on the chromite grains and also occupies the interstitial space in

between. The detrital ore occurs as small boulders along the flanks of the hill and

nalas

At present no mining leases are existing for Chromite in Krishna district. There are

abandoned Chromite quarries and trial pits at nine localities in the Kondapalli area

are prospected by the Geological Survey of India as detailed below;

1. Binnyꞌs Main quarry

area is locally known as Kadimpotavaram.

5. Gangadevi Gutta

: On one of the fact hills about 4 km. west of

Konduru.

6. Konduru quarry : At the southern end of Konduru hills about one

km. north of Konduru.


DMG, GoAP

7. Gangineni quarry : About one km. south-west of Gangineni R.S.

(16044ꞌ30" : 80031ꞌ15") 8. Trial pits on the

hill Silpiralla Venu

: On the eastern slope of a hill about 2 km. south

of the peak .1564.

9. Kanchaipolam trial

pits

: About 2.5 km. S.S.W. of Dongamarla Bhavi

R.H. (16041ꞌ: 80030ꞌ; 65 D/10).

In all these localities, except at Gangadevi Gutta, the chromite occurs as lenses,

bands, pockets and disseminations in steeply dipping and pitching lenticular

bodies (sheets) of pyroxenite. At Gangadevi Gutta, thin chromite veinlets are seen

on the walls of the chromite quarry occurring within intermediate charnockites, but

here also the main chromite deposit is probably confined to the pyroxenite body

with minor veinlets injected into the charnockitic wall rock.

Uses: The Chromite ores in both the areas are generally of poor quality; and even

those ores containing high Cr2O3 content generally show high iron content, thus

making then unsuitable for metallurgical purposes. These ores are, however, fit for

use in the chemical industry.

Oil & Natural Gas

Occurrence:

Crude Oil & Natural Gas occurs in West Godavari Sub Basin, the Early Cretaceous

and older sequences are known hydrocarbon habitants. Major tectonic elements

present in and around Kaza Horst, Kaikalur-Lingala Horst, and SW plunge of

Bantumilli- Bhimavaram high, Gudivada and Bantumilli grabens. The Bantumilli

high rising towards NE takes a NW swing at Suryaraopeta, Mahadevapatnam

area. The NW flank of the Bantumilli high is gentler as compared to the SE flank

towards Lakshmipuram. Similarly, the Kaikalur high has steeper SE flanks as

compared to gentler NW flanks where Kaikalur-Lingala fields are located. The SE

faults extend from basement to Basalt levels suggesting continued tectonic activity

till Paleocene. This has brought out a typical half graben geometry to Bantumilli

graben, filled with coarser to finer clastic rocks of fluvial to marginal marine

environment over Archean basement. End of rift fill is marked by Aptian- Albian

sedimentation of High Gamma High resistivity shale unit. This HG-HR sequence of


DMG, GoAP

29

Lower Cretaceous (Aptian-Albian) age is bounded by regional unconformities at

top and bottom and overlies the rift fill.

The basin tilt towards SE which resulted open marine conditions. This argillaceous

Raghavapuram litho unit is overlain by Tirupathi sandstone prograding towards SE

and grade into prodelta/deep marine Chintalapalli shales beyond Marsyapuri-

Palakollu fault.

The structural readjustment appears to have taken place during post igneous

activity (Razole trap) times. The Matsyapuri Palakollu faulting influenced the

structural readjustment in this part of the basin resulting in the formation of gentler

terrace features over the NW parts of the Major highs.

Granite

Occurrence:

The rock (Granite) useful for cutting and polishing occurs only in the western part

of the district. Geologically the area comprises of Granitic gneissic of Archaean

age. The general litho units are Feldspar granites, Gneissic granodiorite-quartz

diorite and migmatites. Dolerite dykes exposed as small mounds and may be

intrusive in to the country rock granite and granitic gneiss. The rock is black

coloured, medium to fine grained equi-qranular in texture. In certain pockets white

crystals of plagioclase embedded in black matrix. Petrographically, the dolerite

consists of plagioclase feldspar and augite with accessory minerals biotite and

other ferro-magnesium minerals.

The granite deposit areas are located at Anumanchipalli, Ramchandrunipet &

Tekkalapadu villages of Jaggayyapeta mandal, Doddadevarapadu &

Narasimharaopalem villages of Veerulapadu mandal and Makkapet village of

Vatsavai mandal

As per office records there are 20- quarry leases existing in the district, however, 10

Sand

Occurrence:

The river Krishna flows through entire Krishna district before it empties itself into

Bay of Bengal near Hamsaladeevi village of Krishna district. Hence, there are huge

potential sand deposits available in Krishna River.

At present Government of Andhra Pradesh vide Memo No. 3066/M-II(1)/2016-3, Dt:

04.03.2016 has changed the sand policy and sand make available to the public

without charging any fee from 2nd March, 2016.

Prakasam Barrage is a tail end project of the river Krishna located beside

Vijayawada city, just 80 km from the sea confluence point. It is found that 71 Lakh

Cubic metres of sediment deposits have been accumulated in the reservoir and 5

Reaches are under Sand reaches through De-siltation process for the quantity of 9

Lakh Cubic meters in the Krishna Reservoir area upto 13.50 Kms from Prakasam

Barrage in KLF Bank of Krishna District.

In upstream of the Barrage, Sand is also available in meager quantities along the

banks of the 4th order streams i.e., Krishna and Munneru and 3rd order streams of

Paleru, Katleru and Wyra, which drains in western part of the district. There is no

huge deposit of sand exploitable. However sand excavation is permitted under

APWALTA. However, the sand can use local needs and flagship programmes of

Governmental works under Rule 23 (1)(A) under APWALTA Rules, 2004.

Using IRS satellite data and GIS detailed geomorphological and structural map of

Krishna District was generated as per Rajiv Gandhi National Drinking Water

Mission (RGNDWM) guidelines on I: 50,000 scale. The objective of this mapping is

to map lithology, geomorphology and structural characteristics of an area on

1:50,000 scale and to integrate the same to locate potential ground water prospect

zones and to recommend suitable structures for ground water recharge. Various


DMG, GoAP

37

hydrogeomorphic units are delineated and suitable recharge structures are

proposed at drinking water affected villages under this project. The description of

geomorphic units of different origins (Fig.9) mapped in Krishna District are

described as follows.

2.3a. Landforms of fluvial origin

The word fluvial is used in Earth science to refer to processes and landforms

produced by running water. As with other surficial processes, running water can

either erode material from the earth’s landscape, or deposit layers of sediment.

The resulting landforms can thus be classified as either erosional landforms or

depositional landforms. The incredible power of running water in carving various

erosional and depositional landforms is well known. Although the quantity of water

in stream is small at one time during the course of the year, very large volumes of

water moves through the channel and they form an important component in the

hydrological cycle. The fluvial dissection of the landscape consists of valleys and

their included channel ways organized into a system of connection known as a

drainage network. Drainage networks display many types of quantitative regularity

that are useful in analyzing both the fluvial systems and the terrains that they

dissect (NRSA,2007).

Alluvial plain: A level or gently sloping tract or a slightly undulating land surface

produced by extensive deposition of alluvium, usually adjacent to a river that

periodically overflows its banks; it may be situated on a flood plain, a delta, or

alluvial fan. This landform is predominantly seen on the southern part of the

District.


DMG, GoAP

38

Palaeochannel: Deep valleys cut in the bedrock terrain and today filled largely

with alluvium, glacial outwash gravels and sands or with tills. These are good

source for underground water.

Flood plain: The surface or strip of relatively smooth land adjacent to a river

channel constructed (or in the process of being constructed) by the present river

in its existing regimen and covered with water when the river overflows its banks

at times of high water. It is built of alluvium carried by the river during floods and

deposited in the sluggish water beyond the influence of the swiftest current.

Delta: The low, nearly flat, alluvial tract of land deposited at or near the mouth of a

river, commonly forming a triangular or fan shaped plain of considerable area

enclosed and crossed by many distributaries of the main river, perhaps extending

beyond the general trend of the coast, and resulting from the accumulation in a

wider body of water (usually a sea) of sediment supplied by a river in such

quantities that it is not removed by tides, waves and currents.

Valley fill: The unconsolidated sediment deposited by any agent so as to fill or

partly fill a valley.

2.3b Landforms of coastal origin

Coasts are also the loci of a unique assemblage of erosional and depositional

processes. The various landforms of coastal areas are almost exclusively the result

of the action of ocean waves. Wave action creates some of the world’s most

spectacular erosional landforms. Where wave energy is reduced, depositional

landforms like beaches are created. The source of energy for coastal erosion and

sediment transport is wave action. A wave possesses potential energy as a result

of its position above the wave trough, and kinetic energy caused by the motion of


DMG, GoAP

39

the water within the wave. This wave energy is generated by the frictional effect of

winds moving over the ocean surface. The higher the wind speed and the longer

the fetch or distance of open water across which the wind blows and waves travel,

the larger the waves and the more energy they therefore possess. Long open

ocean waves or swells travel faster than short, locally generated sea waves. They

also have longer wave periods and this is how they are distinguished from the

short sea waves on reaching the coast. Long swells, which have travelled

hundreds of kilometers, may have wave periods of upto 20 seconds. Smaller sea

waves have wave periods of 5 to 8 seconds. Where ocean depths are greater than

the length of the waves, the wave motion does not extend to the ocean floor and

therefore remains unaffected by the floor. As the ocean depth falls below half the

wavelength, the bottom increasingly affects the wave motion. As the depth of

water decreases, the wave height increases rapidly and the wavelength

decreases rapidly. Thus, the wave becomes more and more peaked as it

approaches the shore, finally curling over as a breaker and breaking on the shore.

As the wave breaks, its potential energy is converted into kinetic energy, providing

a large amount of energy for the wave to do work along the shoreline.

Transportation by waves and currents is necessary in order to move rock particles

eroded from one part of a coastline to a place of deposition elsewhere. One of the

most important transport mechanisms results from wave refraction. Since waves

rarely break onto a shore at right angles, the upward movement of water onto the

beach (swash) occurs at an oblique angle. However, the return of water

(backwash) is at right angles to the beach, resulting in the net movement of beach

material laterally. This movement is known as beach drift. The endless cycle of

swash and backwash and resulting beach drift can be observed on all beaches.

Frequently, backwash and rip currents cannot remove water from the shore zone

as fast as it is piled up there by waves. As a result, there is a build up of water that

results in the lateral movement of water and sediment just offshore in a direction


DMG, GoAP

40

with the waves. The currents produced by the lateral movement of water are

known as long shore currents. The movement of sediment is known as long shore

drift, which is distinct from the beach drift described earlier, which operates on

land at the beach. The combined movement of sediment via long shore drift and

beach drift is known as littoral drift. Tidal currents along coasts can also be

effective in moving eroded material. While incoming and outgoing tides produce

currents in opposite directions on a daily basis, the current in one direction is

usually stronger than in the other resulting in a net one-way transport of sediment.

Long shore drift, long shore currents, and tidal currents in combination determine

the net direction of sediment transport and areas of deposition. Using multi-

temporal satellite data can bring out the dynamics of the coast (NRSA, 2007).

Beach: A gently sloping zone, typically with a concave profile, of unconsolidated

material that extends landward from the low-water line to the place where there is

a definite change in material or physiographic form (such as a cliff) or to the line of

permanent vegetation (usually of the effective limit of the highest storm waves).

Beach ridge: A low, essentially continuous mound of beach or beach and dune

material (sand, gravel, shingle) heaped up by the action of waves and currents on

the backshore of a beach beyond the present limit of storm waves or the reach of

ordinary tides, and occurring singly or as one of a series of approximately parallel

deposits. The ridges are roughly parallel to the shoreline and represent successive

positions of an advancing shoreline.

Coastal plain: A low, generally broad but sometimes narrow plain that has its

margin on the shore of a large body of water (esp. the ocean) and its strata either

horizontal or very gently sloping toward the water, and that generally represents a

strip of recently emerged sea floor or continental shelf.


DMG, GoAP

41

Dune and Swale complex: It is a large complex of parallel wetland swales and

upland beach ridges (dunes) found in coastal embayment and on large sand spits

along the shorelines of the Great Lakes. The upland dune ridges are typically

forested, while the low swales support a variety of herbaceous or forested wetland

types, with open wetlands more common near the shoreline and forested

wetlands more prevalent further from the lake.

Tidal flat: An extensive, nearly horizontal, marshy or barren tract of land that is

alternately covered and uncovered by the rise and fall of the tide, and consisting of

unconsolidated sediment (mostly mud and sand). It may form the top surface of a

deltaic deposit.

2.3c Landforms of Structural Origin

Landform of structural origin is related to structural aspect of the area. Most of the

landforms under this class has genesis related to underlying structure. Structure

plays an important role for reducing the resistance of rock which manifests itself in

different geomorphic forms. Some of the variation is minor and some are in mega

scale. The mega scale forms have a dramatic effect on the genesis of landforms

and hence mapping of such forms indirectly indicates the structural set up of the

area. The mega scale structural features like fault and fold depending on its type

plays an important role in genesis of structural landform. The influence of geologic

structures on the development and appearance of landscapes is prominent. The

influence of geologic structures ranges from large features, which exert a

dominant influence on the form of an entire landscape, to small features, which

affect an individual landform and the geomorphic processes operating on it. The

structural control could be active structures whose form is directly impressed on

the modern landscape or ancient structural features whose influence on a modern

landscape is due primarily to differential erosion (NRSA, 2007).


DMG, GoAP

42

Dome: A general term for any dome shaped landform or rock mass, such as a

smoothly rounded rock-capped mountain summit, roughly resembling the dome

of a building.

Structural Hills: Hills and valleys, which are originated due to tectonic process

and are highly dissected by the drainage lines. This can be further classified as

highly, moderately and low dissection depending on the density of joints and

drainage. Mostly this will be interpreted from a planimetric satellite data and the

classification is highly subjective.

Dyke Ridge: Intrusive features that are emplaced within the pre-existing fractures

or where the fluid pressure is great enough for them to form their own fracture

during emplacements. They are discordant bodies.

Cuesta: A hill or ridge with a gentle slope on one side and a steep slope on the

other; specifically an asymmetric ridge with one face (dip slope) long and gentle

and conforming with the dip of the resistant bed or beds that form it, and the

opposite face (scarp slope) steep or even cliff-like and formed by the out crop of

the resistant rocks, the formation of the ridge being controlled by the differential

erosion of the gently inclined strata.

2.3d. Landforms of denudational origin

Landform of denudational origin is formed where the denudation process

dominates over the other process. Most of the landform resulting due to this

process is the combined effect of mechanical and chemical weathering.

Denudation is the process of removal of material by erosion and weathering. This

has direct influence on the relief of the area especially in the reduction of relief to

the base level. The agents are mostly water, ice and wind. The major factors


DMG, GoAP

43

affecting denudation are geology, climate, tectonics and anthropogenic effects. All

rocks and minerals at or near surface are attacked by physical and chemical

process. The effect of this process is not same everywhere because of rocks

varying resistance to change. As a result weathering and erosion yield number of

landforms, which have typical shape and forms. Weathering is an essential part of

the rock cycle. The parent material, or rock weathered material is disaggregated to

form smaller fragments and some of the minerals are dissolved and removed by

the agent of water. This removal of material is erosion and is accomplished by

running water, wind, glacier etc. The weathering provides a raw material for the

sedimentary rock and soil (NRSA, 2007).

Denudational Hill: It is a highly dissected hill which has obliterated the structures.

Inselberg: A prominent, isolated, steep sided, usually smoothed and rounded,

residual knob, hill or small mountain of circumdenudation rising abruptly form and

surrounded by an extensive and nearly level, lowland erosion surface in a hot, dry

region (as in the deserts of southern Africa or Arabia), generally bare and rocky

although partly buried by the debris derived from and overlapping its slopes; it is

characteristic of an arid or semiarid landscape in a late stage of the erosion cycle.

Pediment: A broad, flat or gently sloping, rock floored erosion surface or plain of

low relief, typically developed by sub aerial agents (including running water) in an

arid or semiarid region at the base of an abrupt and receding mountain front or

plateau escarpment, and underlain by bedrock (occasionally by older alluvial

deposits) that may be bare but more often partly mantled with a and

discontinuous veneer of alluvium derived from the upland masses and in transit

across the surface.

Pediment-Inselberg Complex: The pediments dotted by numerous inselberg of

small sizes, which makes it difficult to distinguish from the pediments. Hence it is

called as a complex of pediment and inselberg.

Pediplain: An extensive, multi-concave, rock cut erosion surface formed by the

coalescence of two or more adjacent pediments and occasional desert domes,

and representing the end result (the “peneplain”) of the mature stage of the

erosion cycle. Based on the thickness of weathering they are further classified as

shallow, moderate and deep pediplains.

Residual Hill: A small remnant hill, which has witnessed all forms of denudation.

2.4 Structural Features of Krishna District

Krishna District has consolidated formations which include crystallines

(Khondalites, Charnockites and granitic gneisses) and meta sediments (Dolomites,

shales, phyllites and quartzites) of Archaean and Pre-cambrian periods

respectively. The Khondalite Group of rocks are seen as prominent hill ranges (strike

ridges) south of Vijayawada, extending towards north and northeast. The rocks of

Khondalite, Charnockite groups and the layered complex show foliation trending

dominantly N-S with local swerves to NE-SW and NW-SE (GSI, 2000). The semi

consolidated formations are represented by Tertiary formations (Rajahmundry &

Gollapalli sandstones) and unconsolidated formations comprise deltaic alluvial

deposits of Quaternary period (CGWB, 2013).

Fig.10 Structural Map of Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh

Consolidated formations occur in the northern part of the district. Among

consolidated formations occurrence of meta sediments is restricted to NW part of

the district i.e., in parts of Jaggayyapeta, Penuganchiprolu, Nandigama and

Chandralapadu mandals. Semi-consolidated formations occur in the north-

eastern part of the district and its extension is limited to small area i.e., in parts of

Musunuru, Nuzividu, Bapulapadu and Gannavaram mandals. These consolidated

which are part of eastern ghat mobile belt are highly disturbed (Fig.10). The semi-

consolidated rocks are also disturbed with tectonic activity. Unconsolidated

formations occur in the southern part of the district i.e., in the delta area and

lineaments cannot be deciphered due to alluvial cover. Prominent lineaments are

trending in NE-SW, NW-SE and NNE-SSW direction in the District (CGWB, 2013).

3. Ground Water Scenario and Quality of the District

3.1 Ground Water Prospects in the District

Fig.11 Ground Water Scenario in Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh


DMG, GoAP

48

Ground water occurs in all most all geological formations and its potential

depends upon the nature of geological formations, geographical setup, incidence

of rainfall, recharge and other hydrogeological characters of the aquifer. In

consolidated formations ground water occurs under unconfined to semi-confined

conditions. Ground water is developed in these formations by dug wells, dug cum

bore wells and bore wells tapping weathered and fractured zones. The yields are

in the range of 20 to 70 m3/day. The occurrence of fractures in the crystalline

formations is limited down to 30 to 40 m bgl and occasionally extends down to 70 -

100 m bgl. The bore wells constructed in the crystalline formations generally tap

the weathered and fractured zones. The yields of the bore wells generally range

between 80 to 400 m3/day. The higher yields are limited to the available thickness

of fractured and jointed zones. In the meta sediments the yields are very limited

and are in the range of 10 to 80 m3/day. Higher yields occur in limestone

formations. Ground water in semi-consolidated formations occurs under

unconfined to confined conditions. Ground water is developed in these formations

by dug cum tube wells and tube wells. These formations are potential aquifers.

The yields of the dug cum tube wells are in the range of 30 to 45 m3/day.

Granularity of the sandstone bed is the deciding factor of the yield potential as the

higher yields are recorded in the Rajahmundry sandstones tapping coarse

sandstone beds. The yields of the tube wells in Gollapalli sandstones and

Rajahmundry sandstones are in the range of 60 to 200 m3/day and 600 to 1500

m3/day respectively.

The deltaic area is underlain by alluvium of recent age consisting of varying

proportions of clay, silt, sand and gravel. The thickness of alluvium ranges from

few meters to about 600 m followed by tertiary formations. In deltaic area ground

water occurrence is controlled by landforms. In deltaic area also a lot of

heterogenity in hydrogeological conditions exist both spatially and vertically. Fresh


DMG, GoAP

49

water is generally limited to shallow to moderate depths only, whereas in the

southern part of the delta it occurs as pockets and lenses. Deep aquifers are

generally saline. Palaeo-channels are favourable locations for fresh water aquifers.

Ground water occurs under phreatic to confined conditions and is developed

through shallow dug wells, filter point wells and shallow tube wells. The depth of

dug wells ranges from about 2 to 7 m, while the depth of filter point wells varies

from 5 to 13 m and the depth of tube wells varies from 40 to 80 m. The yields

generally range in this aquifer between 250 to 400 m3/day. Occasionally high

yields up to 15 lps exist in the palaeo-channels. The transmissivity value of the

aquifer in the semi & unconsolidated formations varies from 2.5 to 5560 m2/day.

Water Level Scenario The depth to water levels during pre-monsoon season (May,

2012) in the district ranges between 2 and 10 m bgl. Water levels more than 5m

bgl occur in the parts of Gannavaram, Jaggayyapet, Reddygudem, Vissannapeta

and Tiruvuru mandals, whereas, water levels less than 2 m bgl occur in parts of

the Kalidindi and Ibrahimpatnam mandals. The depth to water level during post

monsoon season (Nov, 2012) in general is less than 2m bgl, whereas in parts of

Jaggayyapeta, Vijayawada, Musunuru water levels are more 2m bgl (CGWB,

2013).

3.2 Ground Water Quality of the District

Ground water samples were collected from 1250 habitations out of 1865

habitations representing for two seasons i.e., post monsoon and pre monsoon in

December 2012 and June 2014 for entire District. The water samples were

collected from Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Department (RWS & S) and

analyzed for physico-chemical parameters like TDS, TH, Cl, NO3, pH, F, Fe, TA and

SO4 using standard techniques in the laboratory and compared with the BIS

(10500-2015), in terms of desirable, permissible and non potable classes. Blue,

yellow and red colours indicate pre monsoon quality and +, - , . symbols indicate


DMG, GoAP

50

post monsoon quality for desirable, permissible and non-potable classes

respectively (NRSC, 2011).

From the analysis it has been observed that the ground water is polluted in pre

monsoon and post monsoon about 30% of the area is under non potable category

due to high concentration of Total Dissolved solids, Fluoride and Total Hardness

(APSAC, 2017b). About 60% of the area is potable category remaining 10% of the

area is covered in hills and water bodies of entire District (Fig.12). The occurrence

and movement of groundwater in an area is governed by several factors such as

topography, lithology, geological structure, depth of weathering, extent of factures,

drainage pattern, climate conditions and inter relationship between these factors

(APSAC, 2017b).

4. Surface Water and Irrigation Resources of the District

4.1 Major and Medium Irrigation Projects in Krishna district

Irrigation has assumed an increasing significance in agriculture in the context of

new technology, where high yielding varieties and multiple cropping is being

practiced. The main reasons for low yields are inadequate rainfall, uneven and

uncertain rains during the period of crop growth. It is generally found that the

introduction of irrigation is associated with changes in the cropping pattern. The

shift from traditional cropping pattern to the most advantageous cropping pattern

is possible only in the presence of irrigation facilities. The new agricultural

technology is highly based on sufficient moisture conditions. Thus, the

development of irrigation is crucial for increasing agricultural production. The

irrigation projects are classified as major, medium and minor irrigation projects.

4.2 Major Irrigation Project

The major irrigation projects covering Krishna district are Krishna Eastern Delta

(Prakasam Barriage) and Nagarjuna sagar Project. In Krishna eastern delta an

extant of 679,000 acres and in Nagarjuna Sagar Project an extant of 329,304 acres

are covered and they fall under eighteen assemblies. The mandals covered are

Avanigada, Gangavaram, Gudivada, Kaikalur, Machilipatnam, Pamarru, Pedana,

Penamaluru, Vijayawada East, Vijayawada West, and Vijayawada Central

respectively. The overall coverage under major irrigation project is 1,008,304 acres.

The major ongoing irrigation project is Indra Sagar project right main canal, Under

this ongoing project about 63,000 acres are covered that fall under five assemblies.

The mandals covered are Gangavaram, Mylavaram, Nuzvid, Vijayawada central

and Vijayawada west.

4.3 Medium Irrigation Project

The Medium Irrigation projects are Muniyeru Project and Tammileru Project.

These medium irrigation projects are falling under three assemblies with an

ayacut of 21,350 acres. The assemblies covered are Jaggayyapeta, Nandigama,

and Nuzvid.

4.4 Tank Information System

Andhra Pradesh Space Application centre was developed Web Portal GIS for Tank

Information System (TIS) in Andhra Pradesh. In web portal minor irrigation tanks

are classified as more than 40 ha, 10 to 40 ha and less than 10 ha command. In

Andhra Pradesh nearly 15,000 tanks information has published in APSAC website ,

for Krishna district so far 555 tanks information has published in the website, in that

information all are 10 to 40 ha categories. The each tank wise information is like

location details, hydrological details and other standard information related to the

tank. The following details are shown in website.

5. Land Utilization, Forest and Slope in the District

The Land Use / Land Cover (LULC) pattern of any region is an outcome of various

physical, cultural factors and their utilization by a man in time and space. Land use

refers to the type of utilization to which man has put the land. It also refers to the

evaluation of the land with respect to various natural characteristics. But land

cover describes the vegetal attributes of land. Land use/land cover data is

essential for planners, decision makers and those concerned with land resources

management. The proper understanding of the influence of the various human-

induced land use practices with regard to the environmental change, it is essential

to help simulate the land use changes. Remote sensing technology is considered

most effective as it provides timely and authentic information about the spatial

distribution of land use/land cover, while Geographical Information System (GIS)

provides a flexible digital environment for collecting, storing, visualizing and

analyzing the spatial data. Remote sensing as a vital tool helps for rapid

assessment and monitoring of a natural resource. When combined with GIS, it

makes it possible to map land use/cover phenomena in detailed for further

planning, development, and decision-making, which is essential for meeting the

increasing demands and welfare of the ever-growing population.

5.1 Land Use / Land Cover Classification

Various land use/land cover categories have been delineated by using 3 seasons

(Kharif, Rabi & Zaid) satellite data under level-3 classification. For on-screen

digitization, visual image interpretation techniques (size, shape, color, tone, texture,

association and pattern) have been used for classifying the land use/land cover

map (NRSA, 2006). This information is used for general planning purposes at

district/mandal level. The broad categories are built-up, agricultural, forest,

wastelands, wetlands and water bodies. The spatial distribution of land use/land

especially in notified forest areas. Most of these are located in uplands, coastal

areas within notified areas. Many of these can be identified based on the sharp

boundary exhibited by them. The distribution of forest plantation is 64.54 sq. km.

Scrub Forest

These are the forest areas which are generally seen at the fringes of dense forest

cover and settlements, where there is biotic and abiotic interference. Most times

they are located closer to habitations. Forest blanks which are the openings

deteriorating for lack of appropriate water and soil management or on account of

natural causes. Wastelands can result from inherent/imposed disabilities such as

by location, environment, chemical and physical properties of the soil or financial

or management constraints. The area under this category is 148.61 sq. km (1.70%).

Salt-affected land

These lands are containing an excessive concentration of salts (soluble salts or

exchangeable saline or both). Salinization can result from improper management

of canal irrigation water resulting in the rise of the water table and consequent

accumulation of salts in the root zone in arid, semi-arid and sub-humid (dry)

conditions and ingress of sea water in coastal regions and/or use of high-salt

containing ground water. They also become saline when soils have developed on

salt containing parent materials or have saline ground water. Coastal saline soils

may be with or without ingress or inundation by sea water. These lands are

accounted 0.26 sq. km only.

Dense scrub

The scrub is usually confined to topographically elevated areas, on the hill slopes

generally surrounded by agricultural lands. These areas possess shallow and

skeletal soils, at times chemically degraded, extremes of slopes, severely eroded


DMG, GoAP

67

and lands subjected to excessive aridity with scrubs dominating the landscape. It

is found with varying sizes of small to large areas having a contiguous or

dispersed pattern. The dense scrub is mostly identified on the hills and occupied

an area of 82.23 sq. km.

Open scrub

This category has a similar description as mentioned in the dense scrub excepting

that they possess sparse vegetation or devoid of scrub and have a thin soil cover.

The open scrub is found foothills surrounded by agricultural lands with an account

of 44.27 sq. km.

Coastal Sand

Coastal sands are the sands that are accumulated as a strip along the sea-coast.

Very high reflectance exhibited by this category especially in the NIR region of the

spectrum enable their separation with the salt-affected land. It is found in along

the coast and occupied an area of 19.61 sq. km (0.22%).

Riverine sand

Riverine sands are those that are seen as accumulations in the flood plain as

sheets which are the resultant phenomena of river flooding. The sandy areas

occurring within or in continuity to river course are to be excluded from this

category. These are found along the Krishna River and attributed only 0.23 sq. km.

mangrove, salt marsh/marsh with vegetation and other hydrophytic vegetation. It

is contributed an area of 138.46 sq. km (1.59%)

Coastal - Saltpans

Saltpans are flat expanses of areas covered with salt usually white under the Sum.

Saltpans are manmade saline ecosystem from which crude salt is extracted

during summer. These are un-drained, usually small and shallow, natural

depression or hollow in which brackish water accumulates and evaporates

leaving behind salt deposits. This category found nearer to Machilipatnam area

and attributed 27.03 sq, km.

Water Bodies

This category comprises areas with surface water, either impounded in the form of

ponds, lakes and reservoirs or flowing as streams, rivers, canals etc. These are

seen clearly on the satellite image in blue to dark blue or cyan color depending on

the depth of water. Waterbody category occupies an area about 513 sq. km with

5.88% of the district.

River/Stream-Perennial

Rivers/streams are the natural course of water flowing on the land surface along a

definite channel/slope regularly or intermittently towards a sea in most cases or a

lake or an inland basin in desert areas or a marsh or another river. These are the

rivers/streams that flow continuously throughout the year as considered perennial.

It contributes an area of 129.12 sq. km.

River/Stream-Non Perennial

The water covers the surface for less than nine months in each year considered as

non perennial. This also includes the dry part of river generally characterized by

the presence of sand or exposed rocks. It is found that most of the streams under

non perennial category and contributes an area of 151.45 sq. km.

Canal/Drain

Canals and drains are artificial watercourse constructed for irrigation, navigation or

to drain out excess water from agricultural lands. It is found mostly in coastal

plains with an area of 42.32 sq. km.

Reservoir/Tanks-Permanent

The reservoir is an artificial lake created by the construction of a dam across the

river specifically for hydel power generation, irrigation, and water supply for

domestic/ industrial needs, flood control, either singly or in combination. Tanks are

small lakes of impounded waterways constructed on land surface for irrigation.

They are associated with croplands, low lands and reservoirs surrounded by hills

without vegetation. This includes all reservoirs/tanks with water spread seen at

least during one season in a year is considered under the permanent category.

This category occupies an area of 42.32 sq. km.

Reservoir/Tanks-Seasonal

Dry reservoirs/tanks are those, which do not have water spread throughout the

year are considered as seasonal. It is found that many of the tanks under seasonal

category with an area of 122.43 sq. km.

5.2 Slope Map of the District

The concept of measuring slope from a topographic map is a familiar one for most

professionals in the natural resources and landscape planning / management and

surveying professions. Slope is a measurement of how steep the ground surface

is. The steeper the ground surface the greater the slope. Slope is measured by

calculating the tangent of the surface. The tangent is calculated by dividing the

vertical change in elevation by the horizontal distance. Slope is normally

expressed in planning as a percent slope which is the tangent (slope) multiplied

by 100. Percent Slope = Height / Base * 100

Reliable estimation of the stability of slopes and foundations is very demanding

because it is important for terrain analysis to understand the natural process in the

disciplines of topography, geology, soils, hydro-geology, infrastructure planning,


DMG, GoAP

71

hazard management both at surface and subsurface. In view of this, slope will

plays an important role while doing decentralized planning at grassroots level.

Traditionally contours information from 1:50,000 or 1:25,000 topographic maps are

used for preparation of slope by manual procedures based contour value

difference for unit horizontal distance. The emergence of remote sensing & GIS

systems and the availability of topographic data in DEM or TIN formats, slope

maps can be generated using image processing and GIS methods.

Representation of slope in percentage is understandable rationale for the resource

mapping and planning. Slope information one of the GIS layers play an important

role in natural resources and district planning process. It is proposed to generate

the necessary slope layer from the available digital topographic data such as

Carto DEM and open source Digital Elevation Model data (NRSC, 2009).

From Fig. 14 it is observed that majority of the District is covered with level to

nearly level slope.Moderately sloping areas are observed in parts of

Gampalagudem, A.Konduru, G. Konduru,Veerullapadu, Kanchikacherla,

Ibrahimpatnam, Vijayawada (Rural) and Agiripalli mandals. Very gently sloping to

gentle sloping categories are found in parts of Chatrai, Musunuru, Nuzvid and

Reddigudem mandals.


DMG, GoAP

72

Fig. 15 General Slope of Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh

Slope data generated from DEM using GIS techniques produces triangular nature

slope polygon. To generate meaningful slope layer it is suggested to aggregate

slope polygons by using manual procedures. However, the slope generated from

GIS analysis can be used directly for any decision-making planning purpose. The

accuracy of the slope is dependent on accuracy of the DEM used for slope

generation. The DEM should a bare earth and should not have spikes or dips

which are common in automatic DEM generation. Therefore, to use Carto DEM,

conversion to bare earth DEM has to be carried out before slope layer generation.

6. Agricultural Resources in the District

Remote sensing technology has been successfully used by APSAC during the last

two decades in the areas of agriculture both in spatial and temporal domain under

various projects. APSAC carried out in-season forecasting of acreage for major

crops i.e. Kharif rice, Rabi rice, cotton, groundnut etc, at state/ district level for

the last two decades, in Andhra Pradesh to enable the administrators and

planners to take strategic decisions on import-export policy matters and trade

negotiations. Rice and Cotton are the most dominant crop in Andhra Pradesh in

both Kharif seasons. In this connection, Department of Agriculture and Directorate

of Economics & Statistics are generating data on conventional methods for

estimation of crop area and production. In this regard, satellite remote sensing

plays a pivotal role with limited field visits for timely for estimation and monitoring

the crops.

6.1 Crop Acreage Estimation

The major crops cultivated in the Krishna district are paddy, sugarcane, maize,

cotton, chillies and pulses. Other crops such as banana, turmeric and mango are

also cultivated in some of the mandals. In addition to Kharif rice, Cotton, Rabi Rice

is also estimated using optical remote sensing and Microwave data in Krishna

District.

7.4 Overall view of Mining Activity in the District

The total Geographical area of the district is 8,72,700 Hectares of which the mining

/ quarrying activity is about 2,682 Hectares only. It is only 0.30 % of the total

Geographical area.

The available Major Minerals are Limestone (Cement Grade) and float ore of Iron.

The minor minerals are Road Metal, Granite, Gravel & Sand. In respect of the Major

Minerals there are 12 mining leases for Limestone (Cement Grade and 05 iron ore

Mining Leases existing. The Iron Ore mining leases are non-working due to

insufficient deposit and no present market.

Among the minor minerals the quarrying activity is predominate with road metal

and next is gravel. Granite occurs only in the Jaggaiahpeta Mandal having 11

leases and working intermittently due to lack of market. The existing Road metal

quarries (214 No's) are playing major role in the developmental activities of civil

constructions. In recent sand policy, sand available along the Krishna river and

Munneru river which are above 4th order is kept for free of cost to the public. As

such 12 sand bearing areas have been notified at Nandigama mandal,

Penuganchiprolu Mandal at Munneru river and Kanchikacherla, Chandarlapadu,

Thotlavalluru, Pamidimukkala and Challapalli Mandals at Krishna river and 5 Sand

reaches are notified under de-siltation process above Prakasam Barriage.

7.5. Availability of Sand, Gravel and Aggregate Resources

The river Krishna flows through entire Krishna district before it empties itself into

Bay of Bengal near Hamsaladeevi village of Krishna district. Hence, there are huge

potential sand deposits available in Krishna River.


DMG, GoAP

82

Prakasam Barrage is a tail end project of the river Krishna located beside

Vijayawada city, just 80 km from the sea confluence point. It is found that 71 Lakh

Cubic metres of sediment deposits have been accumulated in the reservoir and 5

Reaches are under Sand reaches through De-siltation process for the quantity of 9

Lakh Cubic meters in the Krishna Reservoir area upto 13.50 Kms from Prakasam

Barrage in KLF Bank of Krishna District.

Where as in upstream of the Barrage, Sand is also available in meager quantities

along the banks of the 4th order streams i.e., Krishna and Munneru and 3rd order

streams of Paleru, Katleru and Wyra, which drains in western part of the district.

There is no huge deposit of sand exploitable. However sand excavation are

permitted under APWALTA. However, the sand can use local needs and flagship

programmes of Governmental works under Rule 23 (1)(A) under APWALTA Rules,

2004.

In the downstream of the barrage, Sand reaches have been notified upto the point

of CRZ and at present 8 sand reaches notified for excavation of sand under Free

Sand Policy and further identification of sand reaches is under progress as per

APWALTA norms.

Road Metal is available precisely in 7 areas viz, Kachavaram, Kadimpothavaram,

Kondapalli, Loya, Vinagadapa, Chillakallu and Paritala areas and at present 214

quarry leases are present in the district. Most of the minerals potential area falls

under Reserve Forest.

Gravel is available in Vijayawada Rural, Gannavaram, Agiripalli, Bapulapadu,

Nuzvid, Nandigama, Chandarlapadu and Jaggaiahpeta mandals and at present
