This paper discusses the introduction of control system in design technology which enable better assessment of irrigation channel systems' operation under real conditions. The open channel network configuration and its control system are closely connected. This means that the control system must suit the configuration, but the configuration also depends on the control system. Therefore, the analysis of their interaction is very important. In this approach to the irrigation channel design it is not acceptable to make a final decision on which systems configuration to adopt before the control system has been successfully applied. An important part of the overall process is to provide an appropriate mathematical model of the irrigation channel network.

This paper discusses a possible solution for reconstruction of large systems aiming to take as much advantage from existing hydraulic structures as possible. An example presented here shows reconstruction of the "Nadela" drainage system into the system which can be used for both the irrigation and drainage. In order to evaluate as many alternatives as possible and to provide technically and financially appropriate solutions, designers applied a kind of the optimization procedure. The design followed these previous evaluations, it was precisely defined and easily carried out proving in advance that the resulting solution is suitable, especially from financial viewpoint.
