Chapters: Coimbatore, Coimbatore District, Indira Gandhi Wildlife Sanctuary and National Park, Amaravathi Reservoir, Kovaipudur. Excerpt: Amaravathi Reservoir at Amaravathinagar, 25 km (15.53 mi) south on NH 17 from Udumalpet, is located in Indira Gandhi Wildlife Sanctuary and National Park in Tirupur district, Tamil Nadu, India. The reservoir was created by the steep Amaravathi Dam built across the Amaravathi River. Amaravathi river is tributary of kaveri. It is notable for its high fisheries yield and South India's largest wild breeding population of Mugger Crocodiles, living there and in the rivers leading to it. History Amaravathi DamThe dam was built in 1957 during the K. Kamaraj administration across the Amaravathi River about 25 km (15.53 mi) upstream and south from Thirumoorthy Dam. Capacity of the dam has shrunk 25 % from 4 tmcft to 3 tmcft due to siltation. The dam was built primarily for irrigation and flood control. In 2005 - 2006 the state reported revenue from medium commercial irrigation from the Amaravathi Reservoir Project was Rs. 43,51,000. During 2003-04, the Tamil Nadu Electricity Board proposed to increase the dams utility by installing 4 MW capacity hydro-electric power station, which is now operating. Fisheries The non-indigenous Tilapia fish was introduced here in the 1950s and subsequently this reservoir had highest fish yield in the state by the 1970s. Tilapia now accounts for a major portion of the fish caught in the reservoir. . Cast nets are commonly used for subsistence fishing. Normally, one fisherman can catch over 20 kg/day of fish here. The Fisheries department normally expects a yield of 110 tonnes /year of fishes from the reservoir. In 1972, a fish yield of 168 kg/ha/yr (168 kg/yr x 931 ha = 156,408 kg/yr. = 156.408 tonnes/yr.) was Books, , Coimbatore-District~~Books-Llc, 999999999, Coimbatore District, Books Llc, 1156711495, General Books LLC, , , , , General Books LLC<
