The project involves setting up of a run-off-the-river scheme with two units of 30 MW across Umtru, a tributary of Brahmaputra. Water from the Umiam basin is diverted into the adjacent Umtru basin thus enhancing the water flow of the Umtru River where all five power stations are constructed. In a similar manner, the water from the Khri River is also diverted to the existing reservoirs at the Umtru River to further enhance the power generation at the existing system.
