  2. LetpanElectric River water pumping Project Specific objectives of the project • To improve factors related to irrigation that effecting paddy production. • To achieve self-sufficient in paddy production by electric river water pumping project at Hlaye Kuu Township in Dry Zone. • To provide water for 9300 acres in paddy production

  3. Time frame-2006-2008(3 years) Activities in 2006 • To negotiate with (village pace and development council/ Ministry of agriculture and Irrigation /Project team/water user) • To prepare for project proposal(fact finding, possible problems over the project, estimating and appraisal) • To submit the project proposal to Special Projects Implementing Committee • To get the approval from the Committee
