Abstract

Excess water during the rainy season and shortage during the dry season require proper management of water resources. The diminishing water availability of Krueng Aceh irrigation that impact on the insufficiency of water supply to irrigate the rice fields in Krueng Aceh led to harvest failure of rice crop. Along with the population growth, demand for water continues to increase. However, water availability for consumption purpose decreases. Thus, analysis potency of water availability and water demand of Krueng Aceh watershed is required. Method used in this research was direct observation. Results of the study showed that water availability in Krueng Aceh watershed in 2014 amounted to 700 million m3 and water consumption demand equaled to 47.9 million m3, resulted in water surplus of 652 million m3. To accommodate the excess water, building of dams, reservoirs and ponds is needed. Moreover, irrigation and drainage channels are important to be developed to optimize the rice field irrigation system. The Indonesian Drinking Water Company (PDAM) should improve the condition of piping facilities to avoid water wasted during distribution to the customer.
