Bangalore platue: FPC2 will become the main source of water for the area of Bangalore platue. The rivers which feed the FPC2 from the level above 900 mts AMSL are tributary to ayyanakere, Hagari, shimsha, Arkavathi, Palar, Yagachi, Hemavathi, Kaveri, Lakshmanatheertha, Kabini, Nugu, Suvarnavathi, Uduthorehalla, Palar. Total FPC2 CRL Length in Kms is 1219.74 Total canal length we are going to save with CE, RE, DCC, BD in Kms is 215.01 Total length of the CE, RE, DCC, BD put together in Kms is 11.89 The Length (Actual) of the probable FPC2 in Kms is 1016.62 The capacity (Volume) of storable water (with the canal width of 200 mts, depth of 25 mts, but the maximum level maintained will be 20 mts) in the FPC2 (4066.48 million cubic meters) is 150.13 TMC. FPC2 cannot be filled and discharged any number of times, unlike FPC1 and FPC4, as FPC2 is not having the ‘ever flowing rivers as its feeder’. Still, it can provide sufficient water to the Bangalore platue in the land which lays between ‘900 to 500mts AMSL’, because, All the water, which is generated from the river Cauvery and the its tributaries will be providing water only to the limited area of land between 900 to 500 mts AMSL, and the area which is below 500mts AMSL need not get the water from the river Cauvery and its tributaries as they will be irrigated by FPC1. The water which is going to be absorbed by the ground / percolating in to the ground / the water which shifts underground as subsurface flow will decrease as the underground water will be saturated with water of the FPC1, thus ‘over the surface’ availability of the water from the river Cauvery and its tributaries will become more and it will be available for irrigation even in summer.
