Finished Surface Handover
Irrigation Surface Handover
An irrigation-surface handover combines measured field geometry with the intended water-control arrangement. Dry-surface checks should be followed by appropriate operating observations where possible.
Plan the surface handover
BeforeConfirm the design and inlet/outlet references.
Work stageCheck field levels, local low areas and connections at banks and structures.
AfterRecord observations during a controlled irrigation event.
What to verify
Compare the observed route with the intended operation.
The finished purpose sets the acceptance question. Agree the receiving contractor or operator, the design reference and the evidence required before construction starts. Keep geometric checks separate from material and operational checks so the handover states what has actually been established.
Scope and limits
No water-saving percentage is established without appropriate before-and-after evidence.
