Objectives
irrigation development of 13,000 ha, 26m earthfill dam (Kalebe Dam) across the Ngono East River.
The project will help to reclaim 7,000 ha that are currently swampy due to flooding and poor natural drainage in the Ngono valley, and will also allow
for restoration of critically degraded 'hotspots"' in the 3,200 km2 catchment upstream of the proposed dam.
