The Deduru Oya Dam is an embankment dam built across the Deduru River in Kurunegala District of Sri Lanka. Built in 2014, the primary purpose of the dam is to retain approximately a billion cubic metres of water for irrigation purposes, which would otherwise flow out to sea. Site studies of the dam began in 2006 and construction started in 2008. It was ceremonially completed in 2014, with the presence of the then President Mahinda Rajapaksa.

  • El Deduru Oya és un embassament o presa construït al riu Deduru al districte de Kurunegala de Sri Lanka. Construït el 2014, el propòsit primari de la presa és el de retenir aproximadament un bilió de metres cúbics d'aigua per propòsits de regatge, el qual altrament fluiria mar endins. La construcció de la presa va començar el 2006 i fou formalment completada el 2014, amb la presència de l'ex president Mahinda Rajapaksa. Estudis de lloc i disseny de la presa van ser fets per enginyers del Ministeri de Regs. La presa, la qual mesura aproximadament 2,400 metres d'ample, va crear la Reserva de Deduru Oya que té una capacitat de 75,000,000 m3. L'aigua de la reserva irriga aproximadament 11,000 hectàrees de terres agrícoles i també produïa 1.5 megawatt 1.5 megawatt a l'estació de producció hidroelèctrica que opera el Ministeri de Electricitat i Energia. A més del vuit portes, l'aigua de la reserva és canalitzada des de la reserva (per a reg) via tres canals, és a dir el Canal Esquerre, el Canal Central i el Canal del Sud. El del sud és un canal de 33 km (21 mi) km conduint l'aigua de la reserva o embassament Deduru Oya a l'embassament Inginimitiya a un índex de flux de 8.5 m3/s. (ca)
  • The Deduru Oya Dam is an embankment dam built across the Deduru River in Kurunegala District of Sri Lanka. Built in 2014, the primary purpose of the dam is to retain approximately a billion cubic metres of water for irrigation purposes, which would otherwise flow out to sea. Site studies of the dam began in 2006 and construction started in 2008. It was ceremonially completed in 2014, with the presence of the then President Mahinda Rajapaksa. Site studies and design of the dam was done by engineers from the Ministry of Irrigation. The dam, which measures approximately 2,400 m (7,900 ft) wide, creates the Deduru Oya Reservoir, which has a capacity of 75,000,000 m3 (2.6×109 cu ft). Water from the reservoir is used to irrigate approximately 11,000 hectares (27,000 acres) of farmland, while also powering a 1.5 megawatt hydroelectric power station, operated by the Ministry of Power and Energy. In addition to the eight sluice gates, water from the reservoir is channelled from the reservoir (for irrigation) via three canals, namely the Left Canal, Central Canal, and the South Canal. The South Canal is a trans-basin concrete canal measuring 33 km (21 mi), channelling water from the Deduru Oya Reservoir to the Inginimitiya Reservoir at a flow rate of 300 cu ft/s (8.5 m3/s). (en)
