Bansal Director, PIET Dr. Sushmita Sharma PU, Jaipur PREFACE Water is a vital resource gifted by nature to living beings on the earth. Water is not only essential to sustain life, but also to support ecosystems, economic development, community well-being, and cultural values. Water no longer can be taken for granted. It is one of the most challenging tasks to ensure adequate water of good quality and food to our present and future generations. The availability of water resources in our country is highly variable both in space and time. Occurrences of droughts and floods often cause depletion of water availability and excess of water leading to significant water stress to regional economic activities and society and heavy damage to human life and again economic losses. It is important to note that cities meet their needs for water by withdrawing it from the nearest river, lake or reservoir. Ground water pumped from beneath the earth’s surface is often cheaper, more convenient and less vulnerable to pollution than surface water. Therefore, it is commonly used for public water supplies throughout the world. Underground reservoirs contain far more water than the capacity of all surface reservoirs and lakes. In some areas, ground water may be the only option. One of the most useful techniques to augment ground water table is to utilize rainwater harvesting technique. It is the accumulation and deposition of rainwater for reuse before it reaches the aquifer. Implementing rainwater harvesting is beneficial because it reduces demand on existing water supply, and reduces run- off, erosion and contamination of surface water. Similarly the quality of water is extremely important for various uses like drinking water, irrigation water, household uses, gardening etc. The quality of rain water, river water, well water, lake water, spring water etc. also vary greatly. Hence, it is very important to discuss and deliberate to arrive at appropriate methods to treat, model and forecast the quality. Various tools, technologies have been developed to address a wide spectrum of water resource problems. Models are being used for assessment of water resources, water availability and reservoir system operations etc. With more powerful and modern computing systems and tools, a greater number of economical remote sensing tools, radar and satellite imaging, isotopic techniques, hydrological models enable water resources managers to move beyond the conventional techniques. The goal of this National Conference is to discuss and improve knowledge on water resources management including rain water harvesting and water quality and other related areas through collaborative information sharing and capability building. The principle objective of the National Conference is to bring together water resources professionals, practicing field engineers, decision makers, faculty & students including stakeholders of the different water resources and hydrology enterprises from various parts of India, to a single platform to exchange their views and share knowledge. This would help in building a roadmap for achieving improved availability of water to cope with the water scarcity and to maintain the sustainability of ecosystems. On behalf of Poornima Group of Institutions I thank the National Institute of Hydrology for technical collaboration and the Indian Council of Agricultural Research, New Delhi for liberal sponsorship. I express my heartfelt gratitude to Dr. S. M. Seth, Chairman, Poornima Group of Colleges for continuous encouragement and motivation. We are also grateful to Dr. K. K. S. Bhatia, President, Poornima University for his continuous support and guidance. Mr. Shashikant Singhi, Director General, Poornima Group of Colleges and Mr. M. K. M. Shah, Director (Admin & Finance) deserve many-many thanks for their kind support. I congratulate Prof. Pankaj Dhemla, Dr. Pran Nath Dadhich and Dr. A. K. Jain who have worked tirelessly to organize the Conference. I am also thankful to members of various committees. I am sure that the deliberation at this Conference will come out with the proposal of easy and cheaper ways to augment water resources having good quality. Lastly I would like to say – Harvesting rain water – Harnessing life Catch the water – where it drops Care for ground water – before it becomes rare Dr. N. C.
