Introduction of Check-dams in Wamrong

As a part of land management activity, the Royal Society for Protection of Nature (RSPN) field office in Wamrong demonstrated the construction of check dams to villagers in three pilot villages under Wamrong Dungkhag. Generally, the check dams can be used to store water during post monsoon season, reduce erosion, modify the velocity of stream flows, trap amounts of channel sediment, and help stabilize channel side-slope.
