Watershed area studies and water resources assessment and development are carried out by SAKOO to determine and to implement the utilization of the water resources in river basins. These studies frequently involve multi-purpose development and include: Dams and reservoirs, Watershed management; Flood planning and control; River management and water quality; Hydroelectric power generation; and Erosion control. Our work and experience covers nearly all aspects of water cycle from management and control of water resources to the final transmission to the end user.
