In response to continuous rainfall, the spill gates of both the Rajanganaya and Angamuwa reservoirs have been opened to release excess water into the Kala Oya.
According to irrigation engineers, six spill gates of the Rajanganaya Reservoir have been opened by five feet each, while two spill gates of the Angamuwa Reservoir have been opened by two feet each. The move aims to prevent any potential overflow and maintain safety levels at the reservoirs.
Authorities have urged residents and farmers in the vicinity to remain cautious as the excess water flow into Kala Oya may impact surrounding areas. Local officials are closely monitoring the situation to ensure that any necessary precautions are taken.
Further updates will be provided as the situation develops.
