The work has been carried out under the guidance of Defense and Urban Development Ministry Secretary Gotabhaya Rajapaksa and this work was initiated by the Sri Lanka Land Reclamation and Development Corporation (SLLR&DC) based on a hydrological study carried out by JICA together with SLLR&DC for the preparation of a Master Plan to control flooding in Nugegoda, Rattanapitiya, Borelasgamuwa, Maha Ela and Ratmalana areas.
