Study Methodology The steps of analysis are shown below. Step 1: Figure out sewer service area, population Step 2: Presume contributory population of target sewers of network Step 3: Presume design flow of each sewer Step 4: Figure out diameter, length, and slope of each sewer Step 5: Figure out flow velocity and flow capacity of each sewer (Manning’s formula) Step 6: Compare the flow capacity with the design flow and judge Assumptions as shown in Table 32.12 are set for the analysis on the sewer network for evaluation of sewer network capacity. Table 32.12 Assumptions for Sewer Network Analysis Item Assumption Population Adopt population mentioned in the Report for year 2001 Connection rate 100%, that is whole wastewater generated is discharged into sewers Contributory population of each sewer Distribute zone population to each sewer catchments proportional to its sewer length Sewer cross-section area reduction due to Not considered silting Flow capacity margin Not considered b. Sewerage Zone wise Population and Wastewater Quantity Sewerage zone wise population and generated wastewater quantity in year 2001 have been considered as shown in Table 32.6. c.

Mission Rabies Goa Monthly Report – May 2018
Mission Rabies Goa Monthly Report – May 2018 By Julie Corfmat, Project Manager Vaccination Total number of dogs vaccinated in May 2018 = 5,177 May 2018 has been an extremely hot and humid month making working conditions even more difficult for the vaccination teams. All the tourists have departed, leaving behind deserted beaches (Figure 1) and a rough pre- monsoon sea. However, the five teams have powered on and have managed to vaccinate over 5,000 dogs against rabies. The South squad completed another taluka – Sanguem (Figure 2) and moved to Canacona taluka in the far south of Goa. The map in Figure 3 shows the coverage achieved at the end of May 2018. Canacona is expected to take another month to complete. The North squad have started and are continuing to work their way across Pernem taluka in the far North of Goa (Figure 4). Figure 1. Deserted beach ahead of the monsoon 1 Sanguem Taluka Total Vaccination Coverage Figure 2. Sanguem Taluka – Total vaccination coverage 27th April to 24th May 2018 The hand catching teams are also progressing well and towards the end of May 2018 a new hand-catching team was introduced to the North squad. The hand-catching teams consist of a team leader and one animal handler. They cover their areas on foot and by scooter trying to vaccinate as many free-roaming dogs as possible (Figures 5 – 10). Many of the dogs in Goa run away at the sight and smell of the nets so we hope to achieve better coverage with this method. However, the hand-catching is still very much in the trial phase and its impact is yet to be fully assessed. -
