This document discusses the lengths and capacities of various sections of the proposed Flat Primary Canal 1 (FPC1) that is part of a larger interlinking canal system between Indian rivers. It provides details on the lengths and capacities of the FPC1 West Extension (FPC1 WE) and FPC1 East Extension (FPC1 EE) sections. It also lists locations and lengths of various regulating structures, depressed canals, bypasses and other hydraulic structures that will be part of FPC1, including examples on the Narmada River and between the Pennar, Ponniyar and Kaveri Rivers. The total estimated length of FPC1 WE is over 1110 km with a storage capacity of 142.

All these lengths are with the major curves on
the surface, in the same level in case of FPC, and
in declining fashion in case of PC and other
canals.
616

59. Topic series: 448. Topic 1: FPC1 – RE, CE, DCC, BD and others:
Minor curves that come in the canal paths are not
focused and it is not possible by me alone.
So the exact length of the canal will be known only
after doing the micro survey of different segments
of the canal by different teams.

60. Topic series: 448. Topic 1: FPC1 – RE, CE, DCC, BD and others:
My effort is to guide them in this way to

that there will be less errors in the future
with the satellite based survey.
