The service period of most water infrastructure facilities built in the country is more than 50-60 years, and their technical condition is deteriorating every year. In particular, most of the canals of irrigation systems are going for filtration by soil, and seepage losses remain high. In addition, 77 percent of the canals of the irrigation system require repair and rehabilitation, and 20 percent - reconstruction. 77% of irrigation networks of associations of water users and farms are ground, 44% of the network needs repair and rehabilitation, 10% of the network needs reconstruction.

Most of the existing u-shaped canal networks have been in operation for more than 30 years and 70% of them require reconstruction and replacement. This article analyzes the above scientific and technical problems.
