Certain kinds of irrigation development projects in hot climates have important adverse implications for human health. This article reviews aspects of such projects in relation to their effects on vector-borne disease; the specific diseases associated with these developments are discussed and tabulated. It introduces the concept of environmental management for disease control and this is discussed in relation to the various phases of project planning and establishment. It concludes by making recommendations for action to be taken towards ensuring the general acceptance and implementation of such techniques.

A methodology for forecasting the health impact of proposed reservoirs is outlined. A simple reservoir model is described and an index of the extent of potential vector habitat around reservoir margins is proposed. Further components of the overall methodology require development based on detailed field studies and it is intended to use the completed model to compare impacts of small and large scale irrigation reservoirs.
