  • 6. Water Quality ------61 6.1 Surface Water Quality Observations ------61 6.2 Ground Water Quality Observations ------62 7
    Version 2.0 Krishna Basin Preface Optimal management of water resources is the necessity of time in the wake of development and growing need of population of India. The National Water Policy of India (2002) recognizes that development and management of water resources need to be governed by national perspectives in order to develop and conserve the scarce water resources in an integrated and environmentally sound basis. The policy emphasizes the need for effective management of water resources by intensifying research efforts in use of remote sensing technology and developing an information system. In this reference a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) was signed on December 3, 2008 between the Central Water Commission (CWC) and National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC), Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) to execute the project “Generation of Database and Implementation of Web enabled Water resources Information System in the Country” short named as India-WRIS WebGIS. India-WRIS WebGIS has been developed and is in public domain since December 2010 (www.india- wris.nrsc.gov.in). It provides a ‘Single Window solution’ for all water resources data and information in a standardized national GIS framework and allow users to search, access, visualize, understand and analyze comprehensive and contextual water resources data and information for planning, development and Integrated Water Resources Management (IWRM). Basin is recognized as the ideal and practical unit of water resources management because it allows the holistic understanding of upstream-downstream hydrological interactions and solutions for management for all competing sectors of water demand. The practice of basin planning has developed due to the changing demands on river systems and the changing conditions of rivers by human interventions.

  • Impact of Urban Growth on Water Bodies the Case of Hyderabad
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Research Papers in Economics Working Paper No. 60 September 2004 Impact of Urban Growth on Water Bodies The Case of Hyderabad C. Ramachandraiah Sheela Prasad CENTRE FOR ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL STUDIES Begumpet, Hyderabad-500016 1 Impact of Urban Growth on Water Bodies The Case of Hyderabad C. Ramachandraiah* Sheela Prasad** Abstract Being located in the Deccan Plateau region, Hyderabad city has been dotted with a number of lakes, which formed very important component of its physical environment. With the increasing control of the State and private agencies over the years, and rapid urban sprawl of the city, many of the water bodies have been totally lost. Many have been shrunk in size while the waters of several lakes got polluted with the discharge of untreated domestic and industrial effluents. This study makes an attempt to analyse the transformation of common property resources (the lakes) into private property. The adverse consequences of the loss of water bodies are felt in the steep decline in water table and the resultant water crisis in several areas. Further, the severity of flooding that was witnessed in August 2000 was also due to a reduction in the carrying capacity of lakes and water channels. The State has not bothered to either implement the existing laws or pay attention to the suggestions of environmental organisations in this regard. The paper argues that in this process of loss of water bodies in Hyderabad, the State is as much responsible as private agencies in terms of the policies that it has formulated and the lack of ensuring legislation and implementation.

    International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research, Volume 6, Issue 8, August-2015 1550 ISSN 2229-5518 WATER QUALITY OF SOME POLLUTED LAKES IN GHMC AREA, HYDERABAD - INDIA T.Vidya Sagar Abstract: The present research work has been carried out in surface water in Greater Hyderabad Metropolitan City (GHMC), Telanga State, India during 2012-2013 to assess its quality for drinking and irrigation. Out of many lakes in GHMC, Saroornagar Lake, Miralam Tank, Hasmathpet Lake, Nallacheruvu, Safilguda Lake, Kapra Lake, Fox Sagar, Mallapur Tank, Pedda Cheruvu in Phirjadiguda, Noor Md. Kunta and Premajipet Tank are presented in this study. Results of the water quality shows alkaline character (pH: 6.4 to 7.6) with TDS varying fresh (878 to 950 mg/L) to brackish (1,056 to 3,984 mg/L). The Lakes show RSC negative (-1.3, to -4.1 and Premajipet Tank counts -28 me/L) indicates reduced risk of sodium accumulation due to offsetting levels of calcium and magnesium. The lakes represent Medium Hazard Class under Guidelines of Irrigation Hazard Water Quality Rating (Ir.HWQR) in respect of %Na, and Excellent (non hazard) in re- spect of SAR. Average EC are in the range 1463 – 2275, represent Medium except Noor Md. Kunta and Premajipet Tank, which represent High and Very High Hazard Class under Ir.HWQR with large negative RSC (-28). Premajipet Tank is Heavy Pollution receptor and Noor Md. Kunta follows it. The Lakes lie on Class E due to Low DO and High BOD as per CPCB Primary water quality criteria for "designated best uses" except Premajipet Tank and Noor Md.

  • Bhoj Brief 7Dec03
    1 7Dec03 BHOJ WETLAND Dr.M.S.Kodarkar, Head, Indian Association of Aquatic Biologists (IAAB), Hyderabad – 500 095 (Andhra Pradesh) India 1. INTRODUCTION : South Asia, home to over one fifth of the world’s population is facing water crisis. This region is in the grip of flood and draught cycles and there is a need to have a long term strategy for management of its water resources. Big and small water bodies in the form of lakes and reservoirs dot landscape of south Asia. These ecosystems impound precious freshwater and make up the most easily accessible source for many human uses. Historically, major cities in this region flourished in geographical regions with assured water supply that sustained civilization for centauries. Unfortunately, last half of 20th Centaury is witness to large scale degradation of environment in general and water resources in particular, due to a number of anthropogenic factors like un-precedented population growth and consequent urbanization, industrialization and chemical intensive agriculture (Kodarkar, 1995). The first victims of this degradative process were the lakes and reservoirs in the vicinity of urban areas that underwent large scale pollution due to sewage and/or industrial effluents and toxic chemicals. In most of the cases nutrient enrichment led to eutrophication (Edmondson, 1991) with a number of negative manifestations like : 1. Permanent algal blooms and poor water quality 2. Wild growth of macrophytes like water hyacinth and loss of biodiversity 3. Water pollution and Breeding of vectors like mosquitoes and snails and impacts on public health* (*water contamination could spread water borne diseases such as Cholera, typhoid, paratyphoid, diarrhea, and dysentery.

    Rec. zoo I. Surv. India: 102 (Part 1-2) : 155-167,2004 A STUDY ON THE CLADOCERAN FAUNA OF HYDERABAD AND ITS ENVIRONS, ANDHRA PRADESH s. V. A. CHANDRASEKHAR Freshwater Biological Station, Zoological Survey of India, 1-1-300IB, Ashoknagar, Hyderabad-500 020, Andhra Pradesh, India INTRODUCTION Hyderabad, the historical city of lakes and gardens, can be called as 'Limnological capital of India' , due to its sheer number of major and minor water bodies (approximately 170) in its metropolitan limits. The city of Hyderabad was founded on the bank of river Musi in the year 1591 AD by Sultan Mohd. Quli Qutubshah, the 5th ruler of Kutubsahi dynasty and today it is the 5th largest Metropolitan city in India. The Musi river flowing through the city is one of the major tributaries of the Krishna river. River Musi is heavily contaminated with domestic sewage and industrial effluents loaded with toxic chemicals and metals. The river traverses a distance of about 15 km through the heart of Hyderabad and lies between 17°21" to 17°24" Nand 78°25" to 78°32" E. There is no regular flow of water in the river from the upstream due to the construction of two reservoirs like Osmansagar and Himayatsagar which are the major sources of supply of drinking water to the city: Ahson Mohammed (1980), Jaya Devi (1985), Chandrasekhar (1997), Malathi (2002) made some of the major contributions on the ecological studies of the lakes in Hyderabad and its surroundings in which the composition of the cladoceran fauna was emphasized. Some major contributions on the cladoceran fauna in particular, of these water bodies have been confined to Patil (1986), Siddiqi and Chandrasekhar (1993), Chandrasekhar (1995, 1996 and 1998) and Chandrasekhar and Kodarkar (1994).
