The ISR Cell of PHCASC had organized a dam cleaning drive to create awareness about water reticulation, water demand management and water conservation. Sedimentation in dams results in loss of storage capacity; increases pressure on the dam structure, and can have a wide range of possible negative impacts on the environment.
