CBFEWS at Gagan River, Siraha

The Community Based Flood Early Warning System (CBFEWS) has been implemented along the Gagan River flowing through Nepal and into India. The Gagan River is a trans-boundary river between Nepal and India, originating in the Siwalik Hills and flowing through the Terai region of Nepal –the northern extension of the Indo-Gangetic plain—and into India through Bihar.

The telemetry based CBFEWS instrument is designated to be installed at Balahi, Siraha to act as a source for flood early warning and facilitate complete implementation of CBFEWS.
