Originally Deg Nullah outfalls in River Ravi near Syedwala but due to construction of Deg Diversion Channel its outfall point changed and now it outfalls in Deg Diversion Channel. The old abounded portion needs to be channelized as two major drains outfall in it, beside runoff of rainwater of the area will also be catered for in this project. (Approximate length 20.0 mile & discharge at outfall 300 Cs). The existing bed width and depth of drain vary from 20-30 feet and 4-6 feet respectively. After the construction of Deg Diversion Chanel (DOC), the old route of Deg Nullah from DOC to the Q.B. Link canal was abandoned. With the increase in local population, urban and industrial expansion and cultivatable areas, this route has become vital in order to provide better drainage and flood control measure to the local public and their economic condition.

In addition to this, two major drains outfalls in this reach. This reach also needs to be constructed to cater for the drainage/seepage water of the local area in order help the drainage and water logging problem. Already a natural channel exists in most part. The initial design suggests the following parameters for proposed channel:

• Bed Width = 35.0 feet
• Full Capacity Depth = 6.0 feet
• Free Board = 2.0 feet
