Salient Features of Krishna District Krishna District with its district headquarters at Machilipatnam is the coastal district of Andhra Pradesh. It was formerly called as Machilipatnam District. Later it was renamed as Krishna District after the holy river Krishna, by adding certain Taluks of the abolished Guntur District in 1859. Again in 1925, Krishna District was further divided into Krishna and West Godavari Districts. It lies between 15º 43’ 02’’ and 17º 08’ 17’’ of the North latitude and 80º 07’ 24’’ and 81º 34’ 51’’ of East longitude which extends over an area of 8727 Sq. Kms. with a coastline of 88 Kms. It was surrounded on the east by Bay of Bengal and West Godavari District, on south by Bay of Bengal on west by Guntur and Nalgonda Districts and on north by Khammam District. 1.1 Administrative Setup The District is divided into 50 Mandals (Fig.1) covering 4 Revenue Divisions viz., 1. Bandar 2. Vijayawada 3. Gudivada 4. Nuzvid. The District is naturally divided into Delta and Upland Zones. All the Mandals existing in Bandar, Gudivada divisions and part of Vijayawada division (Penamaluru, Kankipadu, Thotlavalluru part of Vijayawada Rural) comprise delta and Unguturu, Vuyyuru, Pamidimukkala and part of Gannavaram and Bapulapadu Mandals of Nuzvid Division and all the mandals existing in Nuzvid division and the remaining Mandals of Vijayawada Division constitute upland (DES, 2015). The upland consists of an undulating broken terrain by low ranges of Eastern Ghats. The main sources of Irrigation in upland are tanks. It is being benefited by the water of Nargarjuna Sagar also. The delta land is being irrigated by canals of river Krishna. There are five municipalities DMG, GoAP 1 District Survey Report - 2018 viz., 1. Machilipatnam 2. Pedana 3. Gudivada 4.Nuzvid and 5. Jaggaiahpeta and one Municipal Corporation in Vijayawada. Fig.1 Administrative Boundaries of Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh 1.2 Drainage The famous river Krishna is flowing in this District (Fig.2). It is perennial in nature and flows along the western boundary of the District. Part of upland mandals as well as the delta mandals is now having the facility of utilizing the Krishna river water for irrigation purpose. Krishna being a great and sacred river of South India DMG, GoAP 2 District Survey Report - 2018 like Godavari and Cauvery flows almost across the Peninsula from West to East and finally joins the sea by two principal mouths. Among the other streams and tributaries Muniyeru, Budameru and Tammileru are significant. Muniyeru is the chief tributary of the river Krishna and it flows from north to south across erstwhile Jaggaiahpeta and Nandigama taluks. This is an additional irrigation source available in this District. The Budameru is another hill stream which flows through several mandals viz., Mylavaram, G.Konduru, Unguturu, Vijayawada, Gannavaram, Gudivada, Mandavalli, Kaikaluru and finally falls into Kolleru Lake.

As a known fact, state is endowed with all resources both surface and ground water resources. The proposed capital region is locating almost midst of the state and well opted for the establishment of capital. Amaravathi is climatologically good and geologically strong. All the previous conditions like cyclone frequency, flood occurrence, and seismotectonic activities in the past were taken into considerations. But more conscious is needed while developing Amaravathi as capital. Keywords: Lithology, Lineaments, Geomorphology, Natural Disasters and Social Problems INTRODUCTION Andhra Pradesh is one of the best agrarian states in India. Physiographically it is situated with plateau, hills and plain regions. Plateau region is best for mineral resources, hills are covered with forest resources and sources for streams and small rivulets and plains are rich with agricultural yields.

The contacts associated with an outlier in biotite gneiss and sandstones near Tiruvuru, Krishna district, Andhra Pradesh which are generally favourable for groundwater occurrence were investi- gated employing refraction seismic method. Results were examined by correlating the signals with local geology, bore well data and other available information in order to improve the reliability of interpretation. 1.

Chimpiriah4 1,2 & 4 Research scholar, Dept of Environmental Sciences, Acharya Nagarjuna University, Guntur 3 Assistant Professor, Dept of Zoology, Acharya Nagarjuna University, Guntur ---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------- Abstract - The groundwater quality is very important for Ground water is believed to be comparatively much clear the drinking purpose where the surface water is not available than the surface water. Over usage of ground water for and near industrial developments in the world, in India it is drinking, irrigation and domestic purpose has resulted in mandatory for monitoring the quality of water due to heavy rapid depletion of water and pollution of ground water discharge of effluents directly, in the present study five aquifers has made many of the wells unfit for consumption sampling stations were selected for the assessing the (Chutia and Sarma, 2009). People around the world have groundwater quality in kondapalli industrial region,and used ground water as a source of drinking water and even assessing the physicochemical parameters like The samples today more than half of the world’s population depends on were analyzed various water quality parameters such as pH, ground water for survival (UNESCO-2000). So it is believed electrical conductivity (EC), Total Dissolved Solids (TDS), Total to be comparatively much clean and free from pollution than Hardness (TH), Chloride, sulphate, nitrates, iron, calcium, surface water.
