The Krishna River Basin has witnessed high rainfall and consequent floods of various intensities during the last few years. These floods have both the positive as well as negative impacts on the population and the resources. Increase in the ground water potential and availability of additional surface water resources are amongst the logically expected positive impacts. Evaluation of the impacts of high rainfall and consequent floods on ground water and surface water resources would pave a way for managing the additional available water for development. At the outset the study report briefly presents the characteristics of the basin, followed up by objectives, scope, methodology and approach adopted during the study, details of the data collected and their analyses. This is followed up by detailed account of hydrology, geology and geo-hydrology of the basin. The findings and recommendations are recorded in the concluding sections of the study report.
