Water management activities within the National Irrigation Administration are outlined, with special emphasis on those adopted by the Upper Pampanga River Project. This project, not yet complete, will have reservoir storage for the dry season crop. The system of rotational irrigation being implemented in the project area is described, and its problems are discussed. The problems include improving the effective use of rain water, and organizing and educating farmers for more efficient water use. The findings are supported with water-use data from a pilot area.

In International Rice Research Institute, Water management in Philippine irrigation systems: Research and operations (pp. 113-126). Los Banos, Laguna, Philippines: International Rice Research Institute.
(Location: IWMI-HQ Call no: 631.7.6 G732 INT Record No: H013)
Two multiple regression models are used to relate antecedent rainfall to dry seasons flow of 14 rivers serving diversion irrigation systems in the Philippines. The first model expresses streamflow as a function of the bimonthly rainfall totals in centimeters from the preceding 8 months, and the second model relies on the two bimonthly totals most highly correlated to flow and the number of rainy days with 25 mm or more rainfall from the preceding 6 month period. The models have little difference in their predictive accuracy. Although the standard error estimate is relatively high, equations for half of the rivers studied could explain more than 60 percent of the variation in streamflow, and for some rivers over 80 percent in the second model.

Examines the responsibilities undertaken by government agencies at the central, provincial and local government levels in the field of irrigation and drainage development in the context of the objectives and targets of Indonesia's development plan, Repelita III. Identifies the current level of financial contributions being made to perform these responsibilities by central and local governments respectively and any other significant sources such as international aid and payments to village officials. Considers current target levels of operation and maintenance expenditure and examines current methods of determining local variations in O & M requirements. Examines possible problems caused by the multiplicity of sources of finance for irrigation and drainage O & M and by the absence of local taxes or charges specifically earmarked for this function. Also examines possible problems caused by the different boundaries of the ecologically determined zones on which irrigation management is organized and of the administrative zones of the kabupatens. Finally, the paper suggests what criteria might be adopted in assessing the future scale and structure of central and local government financial contributions to the execution of irrigation and drainage programs at the provincial and local government levels and what degrees of discretion should be allotted to local government agencies in deciding their detailed use.

The villagers of Central Java have demonstrated their ability to operate effective water users' associations, evolving organizational structures and irrigation practices to suit their needs as these have changed with the increased pressure of population on natural resources. Two contrasting villages are used to demonstrate the cultural and ecological characteristics which influence such evolution and to show the degree of flexibility that must be allowed for within a general policy of encouraging such water associations.
