AQUIFER MAPS AND GROUND WATER MANAGEMENT PLAN, AKOLA DISTRICT 1.0 Introduction

National Aquifer Mapping (NAQUIM) has been taken up in XII five year plan by CGWB to carry out detailed hydrogeological investigation on toposheet scale of 1:50,000. The NAQUIM has been prioritized to study Over-exploited, Critical and Semi-Critical blocks as well as the other stress areas recommended by the State Govt. Aquifer mapping is a process wherein a combination of geologic, geophysical, hydrologic and chemical analyses is applied to characterize the quantity, quality and sustainability of ground water in aquifers.

The vagaries of rainfall, inherent heterogeneity & unsustainable nature of hard rock aquifers, over exploitation of once copious alluvial aquifers, lack of regulation mechanism has a detrimental effect on ground water scenario of the Country in last decade or so. Thus, prompting the paradigm shift from “traditional groundwater development concept” to “modern groundwater management concept”.

Varied and diverse hydrogeological settings demand precise and comprehensive mapping of aquifers down to the optimum possible depth at appropriate scale to arrive at the robust and implementable ground water management plans. The proposed management plans will provide the “Road Map” for ensuring sustainable management and equitable distribution of ground water resources, thereby primarily improving drinking water security and irrigation coverage. Thus the crux of NAQUIM is not merely mapping, but reaching the goal-that of ground water management through community participation. The aquifer maps and management plans will be shared with the Administration of Akola district, Maharashtra for its effective implementation.

The activities under NAQUIM are aimed at: Identifying the aquifer geometry, Aquifer characteristics and their yield potential Quality of water occurring at various depths, Aquifer wise assessment of ground water resources Preparation of aquifer maps and Formulate ground water management plan

Akola district has been taken up under NAQUIM study during the year 2016-17.The total area of the district is about 5420 sq km. The district is categorized as safe as per Ground Water Resources Estimation as on March 2013. The Administrative and Index map of the study area is presented in Fig. 1.1 (a & b).

Ground water exploratory drilling in the district has been taken up in different phases since 1957. The ground water exploration has been done in Alluvial and hard rock areas occupied by Deccan Trap Basalt. To establish the aquifer geometry, disposition and potential of aquifers, ground water exploration down to the depth of 200 m bgl has been taken up where the data gap exists and accordingly 11 exploratory wells and 6 observation wells and 01 Piezometer have been constructed during 2016-17. A total of 112 EW, 35 OW and 15 Piezometers have been constructed till March 2017. Salient Features of Ground Water Exploration are given in Annexure-I.

39 existing ground water monitoring stations were being monitored 4 times in a year to assess the ground water scenario of the district. Based on data gap analysis additional 66 KOWs and 176 wells were inventoried to acquire micro level hydrogeological data to decipher the water level scenario, sub-surface lithological disposition and hydrogeological setup of shallow aquifer (Aquifer-I). The details of KOWs, GWM and micro level wells are given in Annexure-II and III. Locations of existing ground water monitoring stations and exploratory wells are shown in Fig.1.2.

2.0 Physiography, Drainage and Soil Types

The northern fringe of the district is hilly and forms part of Satpura Range. South of these hill ranges, covering almost entire north-central part constitutes the alluvial plain. The Purna River has formed a fertile basin covering four blocks of district viz., Akola, Akot, Balapur and Murtijapur blocks and also known as “PAYANGHAT”. Southern part of the district is characterized by hilly rugged terrain as a part of Deccan Plateau. Purna is the main river flowing through the district. The river Purna originates in Satpura hills in Betul district of Madhya Pradesh. Other important rivers are Man, Uma, Pedhi, Aas, Shahnur, Van, Morna, Nirguna and Katepurna (Fig. 2.1)

Figure 2.1: Physiography and Drainage

CGWB, CR, Nagpur 4

Aquifer Maps and Ground Water Management Plan, Akola District, Maharashtra-2018

The soils in the district are derived from the Deccan basalt formation. Two types of soils; medium black soil occurring in central part are rich in clay content and deep black soil occur in northern and southern parts of the district. Along the major river/tributaries silty loam soil (>100 cm) is observed. The thematic map of soil distribution in the district is shown in Fig. 2.2.

4.0 Geology

Geologically, the area is divided into two parts i.e., Alluvium and Deccan Trap Basalt formations. The generalized geological sequence occurring in the area is given in Table 4.1 and the geological map with basaltic flows is shown in Fig. 4.1.

Table 4.1: Generalized Geological sequence Akola district Geologic Period Stratigraphic unit Lithology Recent to Sub-Recent River Alluvium Clay, Silt, Sand, Gravel, Kanker etc. Eocene to Upper Deccan traps Basalt hard, massive, vesicular, Cretaceous amygdaloidal varieties with intertrappean.

Purna Alluvium:

Alluvium, belonging to the Quaternary period forms the most prominent Aquifer in the north central part of the district and consists of boulders, Cobbles, Pebbles, Gravels, sand, silt, clay and Kankar. The clast size decreases from north to south towards Purna river; Graveliferous alluvium occupies the foothills of Satpura hills and with progressive decrease in dominant clast size, the sandy alluvium occupies the central part of the district and further toward south Alluvium gets rich in clay content. The Purna alluvium attains a thickness of about 421 m as deciphered in the exploratory wells of CGWB. Alluvium is thickest in north of the district near Akot town and decreases towards south. The Alluvium can be divided into younger and older alluvium. The younger Alluvium is about 70-80 m thick and include mostly sub angular to sub rounded basaltic gravel and sand; and forms the productive Zone. On the other hand, the older alluvium is more than 250 m thick consisting of mainly clay.

Deccan Trap Basalt:

The northern and southern parts of the district are occupied by Deccan trap basaltic lava flows of upper Cretaceous to lower Eocene age. The Deccan lava sequence is grouped under Satpura group in the northern part whereas in southern part it is grouped under Sahyadri Group. The Satpura comprises of three formations viz, the uppermost Bargonda formation followed by Indore formation and lower most Kalisindhi Formation. The basaltic flows belonging to Sahyadri Group occupying southern part of the district are classified under Ajanta, Chikli, Buldhana and Karanja formations. Each individual lava flow consists of lower massive part becoming vesicular /amygdaloidal towards top, ranges in their individual thickness from a few centimeters to tens of meters. The flows have wide variation in colour and texture especially when they are amygdaloidal in nature with secondary mineral infillings such as Zeolites, calcite, and Agate and Chalcedony etc. The red /green/black bole beds constituting the marker horizons separating the two flows were discontinuous and generally inconsistent.

5.0 Major Aquifer Systems Alluvium and Basalt form the main aquifers in the district. Two aquifer Systems in Basalt and three in Alluvium are found to be prevailing in the district. Based on the existing data and the data generated so far, map of major aquifer has been prepared and depicted in Fig. 5.1.

Figure 5.1: Major Aquifers

5.1 Hydrogeology Deccan Trap Basalt of upper Cretaceous to lower Eocene age is the major rock formation in the district covering the southern part, whereas almost entire northern part is underlain by Recent Alluvium. A map depicting hydrogeological features is presented in Fig. 5.2. Northern part of the district, covering about 2650 sq km in parts of Akot, Akola and Telhara, Murtijapur blocks is underlain by Purna Alluvium. In Alluvial deposits, inter pore spaces constitutes the potential water bearing zones and prevalence of sand and gravels renders them a high degree of porosity and permeability and make them a potential ground water reservoir. However lithological variation results in variable water yielding capacity depending upon the predominance of sand-clay ratio. Purna Alluvium has a proven thickness

CGWB, CR, Nagpur 10

Aquifer Maps and Ground Water Management Plan, Akola District, Maharashtra-2018 of more than 421 meters. Based on studies the entire thickness of Alluvium has been divided into younger Alluvium and older Alluvium. The younger Alluvium consists of comparatively more sand layers and thus forms good aquifer. The older Alluvium, which is more clayey with thin horizons of sand and silt, forms a comparatively lesser potential aquifer. Ground water in Alluvium occurs both under water table and semi-confined to confined conditions. Shallow Aquifer occurs from 2 to 72 m bgl depth with water levels ranging from 1.3 to 30.3 m bgl. The yield varies from 50-300 m3/day. The deeper Aquifer is being tapped by borewells and it ranges from 11.3 to 421 m bgl, with the water level ranging from 8 to 55 m bgl.

Figure 5.2- Hydrogeology Deccan basalts are hydro geologically in-homogeneous rocks. The weathered and jointed /fractured parts of the rock constitute the zone of ground water storage and flow. The existence of multiple aquifers is characteristic of basalt and is indicative of wide

CGWB, CR, Nagpur 11

Aquifer Maps and Ground Water Management Plan, Akola District, Maharashtra-2018 variation in the joint/fracture pattern and intensity. The yield of wells is function of the permeability and transmissivity of aquifer and it depends upon the degree of weathering, intensity of joints\fractures and topographic setting of the aquifer. Due to wide variation in secondary openings, the potential areas for ground water are generally localized. In general Ground water occurs under phreatic/unconfined to semi-confined conditions in basalts. Shallow Aquifer is generally tapped by the dug wells of 5 to 34 m depth, water levels range from 3.6 to 21.6 m bgl and yield varies from 10-100 m3/day. The deeper Aquifer is being tapped by borewells with depth ranging from 20-180 m bgl and the water level from 6 to 33 m bgl.

CGWB, CR, Nagpur 21

Aquifer Maps and Ground Water Management Plan, Akola District, Maharashtra-2018 and Telhara Blocks and in isolated part of Murtijapur block of the district. This may be due to overexploitation of ground water in Graveliferous alluvial zone. The premonsoon depth to water level for Aquifer -II is given in Fig. 6.3.

Postmonsoon Depth to Water Level (Nov.-2016) In Aquifer-II, the post monsoon depth to water levels in Akola District during Nov. 2016 range between 6.00 (Unkhed, Murtijapur block) and 27.00 mbgl (Shivpur 1, Akot block). Depth to water level less than 10 m bgl has been observed in the southern and south-central part of the district and in parts of Telhara, Akot and Murtijapur blocks. The major part of the district shows deeper water levels ranging between 10 and 20 mbgl. The deepest water level of more than 20 mbgl is observed in the northern parts of Telhara and Akot blocks.

6.3 Water Level Trend (2007-2016) During pre-monsoon, rise in water level trend has been recorded at 52 stations and ranges from 0.00085 (Kanshivani, Akola block) to 0.363 m/year (Kautha, Murtijapur block) while falling trend was observed in 41 stations varying from 0.006383 (Panchagavan, Telhara block) to 1.982 m/year (Wangargaon, Telhara block). During pre-monsoon, declining water level trend has been observed in about 2942 sq km area i.e., 54 % of the area. Significant decline more than 0.20 m/year has been observed in 829 sq km, i.e., 15.29 % area covering major part of Telhara and Akot blocks and isolated parts of Patur, Balapur and Akola blocks. Rise in water level trend has been observed in central part of the district covering major part of Akola, Balapur and Murtijapur blocks and in part of Patur and Barshi Takli blocks. (Fig.6.5) During post monsoon, rise in water level trend has been recorded at 27 stations and it ranges between 0.0134 m/year (Mandoli, Balapur block) to 0.48 (Akola, Akola block) while falling trend was observed in 41 stations varying from 0.0037 (Shahanur, Akot block) to 0.794 m/year (Thar, Telhara block). Rising water level trend has been observed in central part of district

CGWB, CR, Nagpur 22

Aquifer Maps and Ground Water Management Plan, Akola District, Maharashtra-2018 covering major part of the Akola, Balapur, Murtijapur blocks and southern portion of the Barshi Takli block. Fall in water level trend has been observed in the northern and southern portion of the Purna River covering almost entire area of Telhara, Akot and Patur blocks and parts of Barshi Takli and Murtijapur blocks. Significant decline, more than 0.20 m/year has been observed in 1454 sq km area. (Fig 6.6) In Alluvium part of the district, declining trend more than 0.2 m/year has been observed in both during pre and postmonsoon periods. These declines may be due to the overexploitation of ground water in Graveliferous alluvial zone.

6.4 Hydrograph Analysis The variation in short term and long-term water level trends may be due to variation in natural recharge due to rainfall and withdrawal of groundwater for various agricultural activities, domestic requirements and industrial needs. The analysis of hydrographs show that the annual rising limbs in hydrographs indicate the natural recharge of groundwater regime due to monsoon rainfall, as the monsoon rainfall is the sole source of natural recharge to the ground water regime (Fig. 6.7 a to 6.7 f). However, continuous increase in the groundwater draft is indicated by the recessionary limb.

7.2 Nitrate: Nitrogen in the form of dissolved nitrate nutrient for vegetation, and the element is essential to all life. The major contribution in ground water is from sewage, waste disposal, nitrate fertilizer and decaying of organic matter. In Akola district nitrate concentration varies between BDL to 1424 mg/l. As per BIS (2012) the desirable limit is 45 mg/l. In shallow aquifer, 98 samples were analyzed; out of this 49 water samples show the nitrate concentrations exceeding the desirable limit of 45 mg/l. The high concentration of Nitrate may be due to domestic waste and sewage in the urban and rural parts of district. In deeper aquifer, 79 wells were analyzed, out of this 38 water samples show nitrate concentration exceeding the desirable limit of 45 mg/l. The deeper aquifer are also affected by nitrate contamination, it may be due to percolation of nitrate

7.3 Fluoride:

In shallow aquifer, concentration of fluoride ranges from BDL to 3.04 mg/l. out of 98 samples were analyzed, only 10 samples show fluoride concertation more than 1 mg/l. In shallow aquifer, the highest concentration of fluoride is found in Kunda village, Akot block (3.04 mg/l). In Deeper Aquifer, concentration of fluoride ranges from BDL to 3.68 mg/l. Out of 79 samples analyzed, 14 samples show fluoride concertation more than 1 mg/l. In Deeper aquifer, the highest concentration of fluoride is found in Jamb (3.68 mg/l), Pandurna and Umra villages are also showing fluoride concentration >1 mg/l, it may due to the lithological reason only. Aquifer wise fluoride concentration is given in Table 7.3.

7.4 SUITABILITY OF GROUND WATER FOR DRINKING PURPOSE

In shallow aquifer, 23 % samples are having TDS more than maximum permissible limit (MPL) and 51 % of samples have TDS concentration above the Desirable limit (DL) but below the MPL. The water from such area is not fit for drinking purpose if directly consumed without treatment. It is also seen that about 14 to 50 % samples are beyond the maximum permissible limit for the parameters like TH, Ca, Mg, Cl, So4 and No3 indicating that the water is not suitable for drinking purpose. Concentration of Chemical constituents in shallow Aquifer is given in Table 7.4. In Deeper aquifer, 19 % samples are having TDS more than maximum permissible limit (MPL) and 46 % of samples have TDS concentration above the Desirable limit (DL) but below the MPL. The water from such area is not fit for drinking purpose if directly consumed without treatment. It is also seen that about 4 to 27 % samples are beyond the maximum permissible limit for the parameters like TH, Ca, Mg, Cl, SO4 and NO3 indicating that the water is not suitable for drinking purpose. Concentration of Chemical constituents in Deeper Aquifer is given in Table 7.5.

The CGWB, CR, Nagpur 28

Aquifer Maps and Ground Water Management Plan, Akola District, Maharashtra-2018

quality of irrigation water depends primarily on the presence of dissolved salts and their concentrations. The Electrical Conductivity (EC), Sodium Absorption Ratio (SAR) and Residual Sodium Carbonate (RSC) are the most important quality criteria, which asses the water quality and its suitability for irrigation.

Electrical Conductivity (EC) The amount of dissolved ions in the water is represented by the electrical conductivity. The classification of water for irrigation based on the EC values is given in Table 7.6 and discussed as follows: - Low Salinity Water (EC: 100-250 µS/cm): This water can be used for irrigation with most crops on most soils with little likelihood that salinity will develop. Medium Salinity Water (EC: 250 – 750 µS/cm): This water can be used if moderate amount of leaching occurs. Plants with moderate salt tolerance can be grown in most cases without special practices for salinity control. High Salinity Water (EC: 750 – 2250 µS/cm): This water cannot be used on soils with restricted drainage. Even with adequate drainage, special management for salinity control may be required and plants with good salt tolerance should be selected. Very High Salinity Water (EC: >2250 µS/cm): This water is not suitable for irrigation under ordinary condition. The soils must be permeable, drainage must be adequate, irrigation water must be applied in excess to provide considerable leaching and very salt tolerant crops should be selected.

Table 7.6: Classification of Ground water for Irrigation based on EC values S. No Water Quality Type EC in µS/cm shallow aquifer Deeper Aquifer No. of % of No. of % of Samples samples samples samples 1 Low Salinity Water < 250 0 0 0 0 2 Medium Salinity Water >250-750 19 19 30 37 3 High Salinity Water >750-2250 42 43 26 32 4 Very High Salinity Water > 2250 37 38 23 28 Total 98 100 79 100

In shallow aquifer, maximum numbers of samples fall under the category of high to very high salinity type of water. In deeper Aquifer, maximum numbers of samples fall under the category of medium to high salinity type of water. The areas where very high salinity prevails (>2250 µS/cm) ground water can be used for irrigation for very high salt tolerant crops and with proper soil and crop management practices

Sodium Absorption Ratio (SAR) Excess of sodium in water render it unsuitable for irrigation on soil containing exchangeable Calcium and Magnesium ions. Soil containing exchangeable Calcium and Magnesium takes up sodium of irrigation water in exchange for Calcium and Magnesium, the ratio reflects the Sodium hazard. The SAR indicates the relative activity of the Sodium ions in exchange reactions with the soil. The main problem with high sodium concentration is its effect on soil permeability; hardening of soil & water irrigation system. Sodium also contributes directly to the total salinity of the water and may be toxic to sensitive crops such as fruit trees. The higher value of SAR indicates soil structure damage.

In shallow aquifer, out of 98 samples analyzed and 22 samples are having SAR more than 10 in Alluvium parts of Akot, Telhara, Akola and Balapur block where EC is also more than 3000

CGWB, CR, Nagpur 29

µS/cm and 76 samples are having SAR value less than 10 in Basaltic and Alluvium formation in northern part of the district. In deeper aquifer, out of 79 samples 13 samples are having SAR value more than 10 in alluvium part of Akola, Akot, Balapur and Telhara blocks and Basalt part of Akola block. The classification of ground water samples based on SAR values for its suitability for irrigation purpose is shown in Table 7.7.

Table 7.7: Classification of Ground water for Irrigation based on SAR values Characteristics Quality SAR value < 10 10-18 18-26 > 26 Good Good to Permissible Doubtful Bad (Unsuitable) Total No % No % No % No % Number of GW samples Shallow Aquifer 98 76 77.55 16 16.33 4 4.08 2 2.04 Deeper Aquifer 79 66 83.54 11 13.92 2 2.53 0 0.00 Total 177 142 80.23 27 15.25 6 3.39 2 1.13

Residual Sodium Carbonate (RSC) Residual Sodium Carbonate (RSC) is considered to be superior to SAR as a measure of sodacity particularly at low salinity levels. Calcium reacts with bi-carbonate and precipitate as

CaCO3. Magnesium salt is more soluble and so there are fewer tendencies for it to precipitate. When calcium and magnesium are lost from the water, the proportion of sodium is increased resulting in the increase in sodium hazard. This hazard is evaluated in terms of RSC.

9.0 Ground Water Related Issues 9.1 Declining Water Levels The ground water exploitation has resulted in decline of water levels over the period of time. In premonsoon season, decline more than 0.20 m/year has been observed in 829 sq km, i.e., 15.29 % area covering major part of Telhara and Akot blocks and isolated parts of Patur, Balapur and Akola blocks. In post monsoon season, decline of more than 0.20 m/year has been observed in 1454 sq km, i.e., 27 % area covering major part of Telhara and Akot blocks and isolated parts of Patur, Balapur and Barshi Takli blocks.

Premonsoon Fall @>0.2/year 829 Sq km Postmonsoon Fall@>0.2/year 1454 Sq km 9.2 Rainfall and Droughts Based on the long term rainfall analysis from 1901 to 2015 it is observed that Balapur, Barshitakli and Patur blocks experienced declining rainfall trend. Severe droughts have been observed in Akot and Telhara 4 times, 3 times in Patur, 2 times in Akola and Murtijapur and once in Balapur blocks during 1901 to 2015 with exception of Barshitakli block which has never experienced severe drought conditions during the last 18 years; however it has experienced Moderate droughts 11 times during last 18 years period. Deeper water levels of more than 20 mbgl are also observed in parts of Telhara and Akot blocks.

9.3 Purna Inland salinity In Purna Alluvial basin, in parts of the area lying south of Akot and Telhara blocks and north of Akola and Balapur blocks, ground water is brackish to saline with EC ranging from 2250 to more than 10000  mhos/cm at 25°C and covered about 1818 sq km. It is inferred that these areas of Purna River Alluvium are affected by inland salinity due to diagenetically altered meteoric water having longer residence time. It is restricted to the aquifers in alluvium areas with predominantly clayey admixtures which reduces the transmissivity of the aquifer and increases the residence time thereby reducing the subsurface circulation of ground water resulting in poor ground water quality.

9.4 Caving and loss of drilling formation: Red boles, black boles, the intertrappean beds, have collapsible nature when they are saturated. The weathered/highly fractured saturated formation at the contact zones also collapses as a result of which drill rods assembly gets stuck up. This sometimes leads to loss of circulation of fluid there by compounding the problems further. The red bole is usually encountered at the depth of more than 170 m in this area with thickness ranging from 8 to 10 m. The water bearing zones encountered fills up the bore well and that infuses the bole beds in the succession resulting in the collapse of the bole beds. The casing or cement sealing of the red bole is not possible below 100 mbgl, as the present rig is equipped to lower casing down to 100 mbgl depth.

Loss of air in jointed and fractured Basalt was observed during drilling. The problem can be solved by sealing the zones by lowering casing or by cement sealing. This process may often damage the potential aquifer zones if not carried out meticulously with proper equipment. This problem was noticed during drilling of exploratory well at Shivni at 256 mbgl.

10.0 Ground Water Management Plan The management plan has been proposed to manage the ground water resources and to arrest further decline in water levels. The management plan comprises two components namely supply-side management and demand side management. The supply side management is proposed based on surplus surface water availability and the unsaturated thickness of aquifer whereas the demand side management is proposed by use of micro irrigation techniques and change in cropping pattern.

10.1 Supply Side Management The supply side management of ground water resources can be done through the artificial recharge of surplus runoff available within river sub basins and micro watersheds. Also, it

CGWB, CR, Nagpur 35

Aquifer Maps and Ground Water Management Plan, Akola District, Maharashtra-2018 is necessary to understand the unsaturated aquifer volume available for recharge. The unsaturated volume of aquifer was computed based on the area feasible for recharge, unsaturated depth below 5 mbgl and the specific yield of the aquifer. The Table 10.1 gives the block wise volume available for the recharge.

Table 10.1: Area feasible and volume available for Artificial Recharge

The total unsaturated volume available for artificial recharge is 8025.21 MCM and it ranges from 590 MCM in Patur block to 1510 MCM in Akot block. The available surplus runoff can be utilized for artificial recharge through construction of percolation tanks, Check dams and recharge shafts at suitable sites.

Thus, after taking into consideration all the factors, only 47.57 MCM of surplus water can be utilised for recharge, which is given in table 10.2. This surplus water can be utilized for constructing 185 check dams, 174 percolation tanks and 121 recharge shafts at suitable sites. The number of feasible artificial recharge structures was calculated by considering 0.20 MCM per percolation tanks, 0.03 MCM per check dam and 0.06 MCM per recharge shafts. This intervention should lead to recharge @ 75% efficiency of about 35.71 MCM/year. Tentative locations of these structures are given in Fig. 10.1 and details also given in annexures VI, VII and VIII.

In salinity affected area to reclaim the land for normal cultivation; farm pond may be beneficial in bringing down the salinity over the time; total 1167 farm ponds are proposed in saline patches of the district. Area recommended for construction of farm ponds is shown in Fig. 10.2 and proposed number of farm ponds in saline patches is given in Table 10.3.

The rainwater harvesting in urban areas can be adopted in 25% of the household with 50 sq. km roof area. A total of 2.117 MCM potential can be generated by taking 80% runoff coefficient.

11.0 Sum Up

A thorough study was carried out based on data gap analysis, data generated in-house; data acquired from State Govt. departments and GIS maps prepared for various themes. All the available data was brought on GIS platform and an integrated approach was adopted for preparation of block wise aquifer maps and aquifer management plans of Akola district.

Akola district covering an area of 5420 sq km, out of this 278.95 sq km is hilly area. Geologically, the area is occupied by Basalt and Alluvium formations. The stage of ground water development is 43.44 %.The area has witnessed Inland Salinity, Declining water level and low yield potential aquifers are the major issues in the district. Declining water level trend of more than 0.20 m/year has been observed in 829 sq km (15.29 % area of the total area) during pre- monsoon. Declining water level trend of more than 0.20 m/year has been observed in 1454 sq.km (26.82% area of the total area) during post monsoon. These declines may be due to overexploitation of Graveliferous alluvial zone.

The management plan has been proposed to manage the ground water resources and to arrest further decline in water levels. The management plan comprises two components namely supply-side management and demand side management.

As a part of Supply side Management, a total 174 Percolation tanks, 185 Check dams and 121 Recharge shafts are proposed, which will augment ground water resources to the tune of 35.70 MCM (26.1 MCM by Percolation tanks, 4.16 MCM by Check dams and 5.44 MCM by Recharge Shafts).

In salinity affected area to reclaim the land for normal cultivation and reducing the salinity over the time. A total 1167 farm ponds are proposed in saline patches of the district.

In Akola District, A total 35.70 MCM ground water resources will be augmented after adopting artificial recharge measures and 18.89 MCM water harvesting potential through farm ponds can be created in saline zone which will improve quality of ground water and soil moisture.

Considering the low stage of ground water development in the district demand side interventions have not been proposed. However, this is the right time to further enhance the micro irrigation practices in the selected areas to manage the resources perceiving the future demand of resources.

The ground water development plan has been proposed in view of the developing additional ground water resources available after supply side interventions to bring the stage of ground water development up to 60%. The 88.39 MCM volume of ground water generated can bring 135.97 sq km additional area under assured ground water irrigation with average crop water requirement of 0.65 m by constructing 5304 Dug wells and 589 Borewells.

These interventions also need to be supported by regulation for deeper aquifer and hence it is recommended to regulate/ban deeper tubewells/borewells of more than 60 m depth in these blocks, so that the deeper ground water resources are protected for future generation and also serve as ground water sanctuary in times of distress/drought. IEC activities and capacity building activities needs to be aggressively propagated to establish the institutional framework for participatory ground water management.

Variation in Major & Minor Elements Phreatic Aquifer EC > 2250 µS/cm has been observed in eastern and southern parts of the block towards Purna river covering about 207.18 sq km area. Ground water is suitable for irrigation in major part of the block whereas it is suitable for all purpose in northern part of the block. Ground water is suitable for irrigation purpose in western and north central parts of the block with proper salinity control measures. However, the water from such area is not fit for drinking purpose without treatment. Few villages are also affected by Nitrate and Fluoride contamination. Semiconfined/Confined Aquifer Deeper aquifer is also affected by high salinity; EC > 2250 µS/cm is observed in eastern and southern parts of the block towards Purna river covering about 182 sq km area. Ground water is suitable for all purpose in northern part of the block. Ground water in central and south-central parts of the block is suitable for irrigation purpose; however the water from such area is also not fit for drinking purpose without treatment. Few Villages are also affected by Nitrate and Fluoride contamination.
