5. COMPUTATION OF GROUND WATER RESOURCES IN MADHYA PRADESH

5.1 Salient features of the dynamic ground water resource assessments Year of assessment– Estimation of ground water resources has been carried out based on the methodology recommended by the Ground Water Estimation Committee (GEC –1997) and on advice of R&D committee. The base year for the assessment of ground water resources is 2012-13 and data of rainfall, ground water structures, canal, tanks ponds etc. are collected of five years from 2008 to 2012. The water level data are used from 2003 to 2012.

Assessment Unit The administrative block has been considered as a unit of assessment. The unit is further divided into sub-unit i.e. Command and Non-Command. The ground water resources have been computed for all 313 blocks of the State.

5.2 Sub-Unit-Wise Method Adopted for Computing Rainfall Recharge During Monsoon Season

The following sub-units are taken into account for the computation of various figures in the methodology and have been considered as given below: -

(a) Hilly Area

Area having more than 20% slopes has been excluded for ground water recharge computation.

(b) Poor Ground Water Quality Area

There is no clear cut demarcated area of poor quality in the State for computation of ground water resources. Apart from this, statistical data of ground water structure is also not available. Hence this unit has not been considered for resource estimation.

In the methodology, it is recommended that dynamic ground water resources estimation should be carried out for command area and non command area separately. This has been followed. For computation of ground water resources of command area only medium and major command areas have been considered so that area falling under this category be clearly identified on the map and other isolated pockets are omitted. By doing so it will be very clear in the block map, area showing under various categories (semi critical and over exploited) are in continuation and same may be used for further works etc. Block-wise total geographical areas, hilly area, command area, non command area and area worthy for ground recharge are given in Annexure IIIA-1, whereas district-wise geographical areas, hilly area, command area, non command area and area worthy for ground recharge are shown in Table-7

5.3 Ground Water Resources of Madhya Pradesh

Groundwater resources of MadhyaPradeshState have been computed according to Methodology and norms described in Chapter-3. The block wise details have been provided in Annexure (III A -1 to III F). The Salient features of the computations are given below.

5.3.1 Recharge from Rainfall

Recharge from rainfall has been computed separately for monsoon and non- monsoon periods as well as for command and non-command areas. Recharge from rainfall is mainly a function of geographical area of the district, normal monsoon rainfall and lithology of the area.

The recharge from rainfall during monsoon season has been computed using mainly Water Level Fluctuation Method, whereas recharge from rainfall during non-monsoon period has been computed using Rainfall Infiltration Factor Method. Details of the block- wise monsoon rainfall recharge and non-monsoon rainfall recharge have been given in Annexure III D 1 & Annexure IV. District-wise recharge from rainfall is given in Table-6 by adding up block wise figures of the respective districts. Non-monsoon rainfall recharge is taken into account in Annupur, BalaghatBhind, BetulChhindwara, Dewas, Dindori, Gwalior, Jabalpur, MandlaMorena, RewaSatnaSeoniShahdolSidhi and Umaria districts where non monsoon rainfall is more than 10% of the total annual rainfall.

Total recharge from rainfall in the State is of the order of 2940961ham, (29.41 bcm) with Hoshangabad district having the highest recharge of 148472 ham and Alirajpur district has minimum recharge of the order of 19192 ham.

5.3.2 Recharge from Other Sources

Total Recharge to ground water has several components, rainfall being the major one. The other component include seepage from canals, return flow from surface water irrigation, return flow from ground water irrigation, seepage from Tanks and Ponds etc. for command area. For non–command area seepage from canals and return flow from

surface water irrigation is not applicable. Block wise recharge from other sources has been given in Annexure III D 1 & Annexure IV. District- wise recharge from other sources is given Table-8. Component of recharge from other sources is highest in Hoshangabad district (70814 ham) followed by Dhar district (25043 ham) and Ratlamdistrict (23551 ham) where maximum canal irrigation facility is available. Lowest value of recharge from other source is recorded in Annupur (329 ham) and Dindori (516 ham) being tribal districts where use of ground water as well surface water for irrigation purpose is very low. Total recharge from rainfall is 2940961 ham, (29.41 bcm) whereas from other sources is 656892 ham (6.57 bcm).

5.3.3 Recharge from All Sources Total replenishable ground water resources including rainfall recharge and recharge from other sources have been computed on block- wise and by adding up block wise figures of the respective districts which is presented in Annexure III D 1 & Annexure IV and Table-8. Total annual recharge from all sources in the State is of the order of 3597853ham, (35.97 bcm), with Hoshangabad district having the highest recharge of 219286 ham and Alirajpur district has minimum recharge of the order of 21464 ham. A thematic map showing annual replenishable ground water resources (m/unit area) is prepared (Figure-5). The thematic map shows that annual replenishable ground water resources in metre per unit area is maximum at Hoshangabad (0.65 m/area) followed by Babai (0.44 m/ area) and then followed by SeoniMalwa (0.37 m/ area). In 33 blocks, the annual replenishable ground water resources in the state is found between < 0.06 in 80 blocks falls between 0.06 to 0.09 m/ area, whereas in 142 blocks, between 0.10 to 0.15 m/ area and 41 blocks have 0.16-0.19 m/unit area & in 17 blocks is >0.20. The average annual replenishable ground water resources of the State is 0.12 m/ area

5.3.4 Unaccounted Natural Discharge and Net Ground Water Availability

The total annual ground water recharge of the area is the sum of monsoon and non-monsoon recharge. An allowance of 5% of total annual ground water recharge has been kept for natural discharge in the non-monsoon season recharge is considered of WLF method is employed to compute rainfall recharge during monsoon season otherwise 10%. The balance ground water available accounts for existing net ground water availability for various uses and potential for future development. Block wise unaccounted natural discharge and net ground water availability is given in Annexure III D 1 & Annexure IV whereas district wise unaccounted natural discharge and net ground water availability is given in Table -8. Total unaccounted natural discharge in the State is of the order of 181969 ham (1.82 bcm), with Hoshangabad district having the highest discharge of 10964 ham and Alirajpur with lowest of 1073 ham. The net ground water availability in the state is 3415884ham (34.16 bcm) with Hoshangabad district having the highest net ground water availability of 208322 ham and Alirajpur with lowest of 20390 ham.

5.3.5 Ground Water Draft for Various Uses

Ground water draft for various uses has been calculated separately for command and non-command areas. Details of block-wise groundwater draft for various uses are given in Annexure – III D – 1 & Annexure - V. District-wise ground water draft figures are also compiled and given in Table – 9 Total draft of ground water for all uses in state is calculated as 1936160 ham (19.36 bcm). From the Table-9, it is seen that maximum ground water drawl for all uses is 98250 ham in Ratlam district and minimum draft of ground water for all uses is 2332 ham in Annupur district at eastern part of Madhya Pradesh. Comparison of ground water draft for various uses reveals that draft for irrigation accounts for more than 93% of total ground water draft, where as draft for domestic & industrial supply accounts for meager 7% of the total ground water draft in the state.

5.3.6 Stage of Ground Water Development and Categorization of Blocks

The distributions of various categorized blocks are shown in the Figure-7. The entire command areas of different blocks are falling under safe category. Non command areas of 58 blocks are falling in semi-critical category, 2 blocks of in critical category, and 25 blocks of the state are categorized as over-exploited. List of semi-critical, critical and over-exploited area is given in Table-10 and in annexure III E and III F. Almost all over-exploited blocks are falling in western part of Madhya Pradesh, which is known as “MALWA AREA” where ground water draft has increased many folds during past decades. District wise analysis of data of ground water availability and annual ground water drafts indicate that four districts namely Indore Mandsaur, Ratlam&Shajapur are districts where stage of ground water development is more than 100% as a whole. The stage of development of the State is 57 %.

5.3.7 Ground Water Available for Future Irrigation and Irrigations Potential Block-wise balance ground water for future irrigation potential is determined for all 313 blocks of Madhya Pradesh by deducting ground water draft for irrigation and allocation for next 25 years (upto year 2037) for drinking and industrial water supply from net ground water availability. Block-wise, data of Ground Water Available for irrigation is given in Annexure- III D -1 Contd& Annexure V and district wise irrigation potential are shown in Table-. 9. From Table-9, it is seen that in Madhya Pradesh 1386209ham (13.86 bcm) ground water is estimated to be available for future irrigation, Four districts namely Indore Mandsaur, Ratlam&Shajapur as whole fall under “Over Exploited” Category during the assessment year.

5.4 Spatial Variation of the Ground Water Recharge, Development Scenario and Comparison with Base Year 2010/11

For comparison of ground water resources data computed using GEC ’97 analysis of district wise figures is made for year 2010/11 & 2012/13, which is given in Table-12. Total recharge from rainfall in the State is of the order of 2940961ham, (29.41 bcm) with Hoshangabad district having the highest recharge of 14872 ham and Alirajpur district has minimum recharge of the order of 19192 ham Component of recharge from other sources is highest in Hoshangabad district (70814 ham) followed by Dhar district (25043 ham) and Ratlam district (23551 ham) where maximum canal irrigation facility is available. Lowest value of recharge from other source is recorded in Annupur (329 ham) and Dindori (516 ham) being tribal districts where use of ground water as well surface water for irrigation purpose is very low. Total recharge from rainfall is 2940961ham, (29.41 bcm) whereas from other sources is 656892 ham (6.57 bcm ). The thematic map shows that annual replenishable ground water resources in metre per unit area is maximum at Hoshangabad (0.65 m/area) followed by Babai (0.44 m/ area) and then followed by SeoniMalwa (0.37 m/ area). In 33 blocks, the annual replenishable ground water resources in the state is found between < 0.06 in 80 blocks falls between 0.06 to 0.09 m/ area, whereas in 142 blocks, between 0.10 to 0.15 m/ area and 41 blocks have 0.16-0.19 m/unit area & in 17 blocks is >0.20. The average annual replenishable ground water resources of the State is 0.12 m/ area

Total unaccounted natural discharge in the State is of the order of 181969 ham (1.82 bcm), with Hoshangabad district having the highest discharge of 10964 ham and Alirajpur with lowest of 1073 ham. The net ground water availability in the state is 3415884ham (34.16 bcm) with Hoshangabad district having the highest net ground water availability of 208322 ham and Alirajpur with lowest of 20390.48 ham.

Total draft of ground water for all uses in state is calculated as 1936160 ham (19.36 bcm). From the Table-9, it is seen that maximum ground water drawl for all uses is 98250 ham in Ratlam district and minimum draft of ground water for all uses is 2331 ham in Annupur district at eastern part of Madhya Pradesh. Comparison of ground water draft for various uses reveals that draft for irrigation accounts for more than 93% of total ground water draft, where as draft for domestic & industrial supply accounts for meager 7% of the total ground water draft in the state. The entire command areas of different blocks are falling under safe category. Non command areas of 58 blocks are falling in semi-critical category, 2 blocks of in critical category, and 25 blocks of the state are categorized as over-exploited. List of semi-critical, critical and over-exploited area is given in Table-10 and in annexure III E and III F. Almost all over- exploited blocks are falling in western part of Madhya Pradesh, which is known as “MALWA AREA” where ground water draft has increased many folds during past decades. District wise analysis of data of ground water availability and annual ground water drafts indicate that four districts namely Indore Mandsaur, Ratlam&Shajapur are districts where stage of ground water development is more than 100% as a whole. The stage of development of the State is 57 %.

The net ground water availability in the state computed in 2010/11 was 33, 28,860ham which is almost same as compared to current data of 3415884ham. In general, the reasons for

changes are attributed to increase in recharge because of localized improvement in rainfall pattern, increased in activity on rainwater harvesting and water conservation measures etc. In addition, management practices like efficient water use practices with community participation, increased awareness etc. also helped in improving water use efficiency of ground water resources in stressed areas. In majority of the cases, it is the combination of the above mentioned reasons which have brought in the changes in category. Though total draft of ground water for all uses in state is increased by 2.80 % whereas stage of ground water development has reached to 56.68.% as compared to 56.57% in assessment year 2010/11 In the assessment year-2010/11, 67blocks falling in semi-critical category has decreased to 58 in 2012/13 whereas blocks under critical and over-exploited category remain same as 4 and 24 respectively in the year 2010/11 reached to 2 & 25 in the assessmrnt year 2012/13. The details 0f block’s categorization improved & deteriorated is given in Table no 11. The status of changing the category from semi critical to safe and reduction of ground water stage of development in blocks and districts are due to improving of the ground water condition by recharge from other resources, decrease in unit draft of ground structures and receiving good normal rainfall etc. Table no 11 Change in Categorization from 2011 assessment to 2013 assessment District Block (non Categorization Categorization command in the in the area) assessment assessment 2011 2013 Agar Agar Critical Semi-Critical Bhopal Barasia Semi-Critical Safe Datia Datia Semi-Critical Safe Guna Guna Semi-Critical Safe Jabalpur Shahpur Semi-Critical Safe Morena Sabalgarh Semi-Critical Safe Morena Kailaras Semi-Critical Safe Narsinghpur Chanwarpatha Semi-Critical Safe Narsinghpur Narsinghpur Critical Semi-Critical Narsinghpur Kareli Semi-Critical Safe Rewa Gangao Semi-Critical Safe Sagar Sagar Semi-Critical Safe Satna Amarpatan Critical Semi Critical Categorization of Block Deteriorated Barwani Rajpur Semi Critical Over Exploited Neemuch Neemuch Semi Critical Critical

The ground water resources of the individual block /assessment unit show wide variation in the resource available and stage of ground water development. In Madhya Pradesh, the ground water development concentrates mainly in the western (Malwa Region), Central (Narsinghpur districts), Budelkhand Region and part of Bagkhelkhand Region of the State. The other part of the state has very low development of ground water. Seventeen districts in the state have stage

of development between 60% and 90 %, whereas one district has stage of ground water development 90 to 100 %. The Indore (117%), Mandsaur (100%), Ratlam (127%) and Shajapur (102%) districts reached at highest ground water development and Anuppur with 6% of development is lowest developed district in state. The overall development of Madhya Pradesh in ground water point of view is 57 %, which is moderate. District-wise ground water resource scenario is described below.

ARTIFICIAL RECHARGE RECOMMENDATIONS:- The dependency on groundwater has increased many folds during the recent years and the groundwater extraction for irrigation, domestic and industries have resulted in lowering of water levels, long-term water level declining trend and even drying up of wells. The best option lies in improving the recharge component in any well defined administrative or natural boundary (Block/ Water shed) by an integrated scientific approach with people participatory program. Such program also needs to include cost effective structures and best practices possible without deteriorating the existing surface and ground water resources in terms of quantity and quality. In order to regulate the groundwater development, Central Ground Water Board in association with State Ground Water Departments has computed Dynamic Groundwater Resources and categorized blocks as Over Exploited, Critical, Semi Critical and Safe. Hence, there is an urgent need to implement artificial recharge schemes to augment ground water so that artificial recharge would be a part of Sustainable Management of ground water. The guidelines which can be used in the formulation of scheme proposal can be enumerated as follows.

Criteria for selection of priority area 1. Area characterized by significant declining post monsoon long term water level trend 2. Area characterized by deeper post monsoon water level. 3. The area having high stage of groundwater development & cauterized as OE, Critical ground water assessment units. 4. The aquifer under stress needs to be considered for artificial recharge & priority to be given for recharging at the recharge area of the confined aquifer, viz., crystalline- sedimentary contacts, palaeo- channels, beach terraces, upstream side of fractures/lineaments.
