The groundwater levels can be improved by artificial recharge method such as rainwater harvesting (RWH). Rainwater harvesting is a procedure of group and storage of rainwater into ordinary reservoirs or it can be refreshed into sub surface aquifers. This study aims to assess the variation of groundwater levels during recent years (20112018) by using the data collected from “Chennai Metro Water Supply and Sewerage Board”. Chennai city of Tamil Nadu is taken for study. The temporal and spatial distribution of water levels was studied. Change in storage and recharge for the study area is been calculated from the water level, specific yield and area of influence by using “groundwater estimation committee (GEC) norms”. Keywords: Groundwater, rainwater harvesting, recharge INTRODUCTION is improvement in groundwater after the Urban areas, such as Chennai, Mumbai implementation of RWH (20032011) but and Delhi, are facing two major problems. the impact of RWHs may be reduced after One is acute water scarcity and another 2011 due to improper maintenance of one is flooding during the monsoons RWHs [5]. which occur frequently [1]. However, this rainfall occurs during short span of time Pawar et al. [7], overviewed the success with high intensities. Due to this, most of story of rooftop RWH program in Renavi the rain water falling on the surface fails to village in Sangli district of Maharashtra recharge fully and leads to runoff [2]. As India. The methodology involves rainfall Chennai being coastal area, there will be a analysis; calculation of potential rainfall chance of sea water intrusion, this can be supply, groundwater quality assessment overcome by ‘artificial recharge’. One of from bore well and opens well. From the the best artificial methods is the discussion, it is noticed that RWH is “Rainwater Harvesting” (RWH) method essential in Renavi village even though that if capturing the runoff [3]. Collection there is no shortage of water, as the level and storage of rain water at surface or in of fluoride and arsenic is above the sub-surface aquifer, before it is lost as permissible limit. Rainwater is practically surface run off called rainwater harvesting. free of dissolved solids. About 6.57 The Tamil Nadu government passed an act million liters of rain water is collected in 2003 for implementation of RWHs; it through RWHs which can meet the needs was effectively done only in domestic of annual cooking and drinking need of houses and not in public buildings / spaces population.

  • Community Initiatives in Water Resource Management for Rural Drinking Water Supply
    A Partnership with the Government and Communities in the Maharashtra Water and Sanitation Programs Community Initiatives in Water Resource Management for Rural Drinking Water Supply Best Practice Document March 2007 Maharashtra Transforming water scarcity to water sufficiency has been the goal of the reforms in rural drinking water sector under the 10th Five Year Plan of Government of India (GOI). This has signified a paradigm shift in government policy with interchanging roles of the government from a service provider, singularly executing all rural water supply schemes to that of a facilitator, strengthening community initiatives in water resource management. In this approach, the hitherto function of rural communities as mere end- users of water schemes has transitioned to equal partners in the planning, implementation, operation and maintenance of schemes of their choice. Thereby promoting synergy between the community and state efforts through a bottom-up, participatory and decentralized system for water management. Coverage 33 districts. UNICEF Support Capacity building and information, education and In Maharashtra, the UNICEF Child’s communication (IEC) activities in all the 33 districts. Environment Project (CEP) partners with Technical support in 10 districts, viz. Ahmednagar, the state government to facilitate community Aurangabad, Chandrapur, Latur, Nandurbar, Nashik, initiatives in rural drinking water sector.

It is a special urban hydrology which is the collection and case of hydrology which is applied for cities i.e. deposition of rainwater for reuse, rather than the area with a very high level of human allowing it to run off. Rains are the main source of interference with natural processes. As we know water and if rainwater is conserved, the scarcity of the human population is increasing day by day water can be reduced. The use of this conservation which creates a scope of hydrological studies. system will help to overcome local erosion and Today, due to the increased population we are flooding caused by runoff from impervious area i.e. facing problems in finding and utilizing new covered area (pavement, covered parking etc) same water sources to satisfy the need.

  • Groundwater Resourcedevelopment and Management in Hard Rocks
    ABSTRACT VOLUME National Conference on Groundwater Resource Development and Management in Hard Rocks Edited by Namdeo J. Pawar Raymond A. Duraiswami Subhajyoti Das Supported by Department of Geology, University of Pune, Geological Society of India, Bangalore, Groundwater Surveys and Development Agency Department of Science and Technology, GoI February, 2010 Preface Ever increasing demand for groundwater resources in hard rock regions with limited renewable potential poses a serious threat to life. This precious resource therefore needs to be managed judiciously to ensure adequate supplies of dependable quantity and quality. It is a natural resource with economic, strategic and environmental value, which is under stress both due to changing climatic and anthropogenic factors. Therefore, the management strategies need to be aimed at sustenance of this limited resource. In India, and also elsewhere in the World, major parts of the semi-arid regions are occupied by hard rocks and it is of vital importance to understand the nature of the aquifer systems and its current stress conditions. Though the achievements through scientific development in exploration and exploitation are commendable, its exploitation has adversely affected the hard rock aquifer system, both in terms of quantity and quality; which is of major concern today. In order to reverse the situation, better management strategy of groundwater resources needs to be devised for prevention of further degradation of quality, and meeting the future quantitative demand. This necessitates understanding the flow mechanism, evaluating the potential and evolving optimal utilization schemes and assessing and monitoring quality in the changing scenario of anthropegenically induced influence from urban, agricultural, mining and industrial sectors besides preparing for resource management in view of the impending harsh and erratic climatic pattern.
