MAJOR GROUND WATER PROBLEMS AND ISSUES The Basaltic rocks due to poor storage and transmission capability get fully saturated during monsoon but a situation of rejected recharge results in post- monsoon and early summer months. These aquifers also drain naturally due to high water table gradient formed by sloping and undulating topography. The available groundwater resources can better augmented by adopting scientific and multi-sectoral approach for making the future plan. The aspect related to conjunctive use, ground water legislation, involvement of NGO’S, woman and community participation, mass awareness, adoption of advanced Irrigation system etc will play an important role in conserving and developing the precious water resources 3 Ground Water Information Solapur District Contents 1.0 Introduction .......................................................................... 1 2.0 Climate and Rainfall ............................................................ 3 3.0 Geomorphology and Soil Types ........................................ 4 4.0 Ground Water Scenario ....................................................... 6 4.1 Hydrogeology ........................................................................................ 6 4.2 Water Level Scenario ............................................................................ 7 4.3 Yield of Wells ....................................................................................... 10 4.4 Findings of Sina Man Project ............................................................. 10 4.5 Ground Water Resources ................................................................... 11 4.6 Ground Water Quality ......................................................................... 12 5.0 Status of Ground water Development .............................. 14 5.1 Rural Water Supply ............................................................................. 15 6.0 Water Conservation Practices .......................................... 15 7.0 Mass Awareness and Training Activities ......................... 16 7.1 MAP and WMTP ................................................................................... 16 7.2 Area Notified ........................................................................................ 16 8.0 Reccomendations .............................................................. 16 List of Figures 1.

Introduction Solapur district is one of the four districts that form the region of Western Maharashtra. It is the fourth largest district in Maharashtra in terms of land area and seventh largest in terms of population. It is an important junction on the Central railway line. Solapur is a city with an array of small and medium scale industries. The district is well known for its textile industries and Solapur chadars and towels are famous around the globe. The district has the largest industry in Maharashtra for Beedi production. Solapur is also known for its oilseed-market. Solapur is situated on Deccan plateau. It has an average elevation of 458 metres. The district is spread over an area of around 14,895 square kilometers. It is located on the south east edge of the state and lies entirely in the Bhima and Seena basins. The entire district is drained by the Bhima River.

The district is divided into 11 talukas viz Akkalkot, Barshi, Karmala, Madha, Malshiras, Mangalwedhe, Mohol, Pandharpur, Solapur North and Solapu South. A location map taluka boundaries, taluka head quarters, ground water monitoring stations and physical features is shown in fig 1. 5 Figure 1: Administrative Divisions 1.1. Location and Communication The district lies between 17°21′N 75°10′E / 17.35°N 75.16°E - 18°19′N 76°09′E / 18.32°N 76.15°E . The city of Solapur is the district headquarters.
