1. WATER SECURITY PLAN FOR ENSURING SUSTAINABILITY OF SOURCES – INSTITUTIONAL ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES JALANIDHI

2. WATER Water is essential to the life of the planet and to the prosperity of its people. Whether it is food security, nutrition security, poverty reduction, economic growth, energy production, human health—water is the nexus

3.  WATER security is the capacity of a population to ensure that they continue to have access to potable water..  Water security implies affordable access to clean water for agricultural industrial or HH usage and is thus important part of human security  Water security also means addressing environmental protection and the negative effects of poor management. WATER SECURITY

4. GLOBAL SCENARIO NEED OF WATER SECURITY

5. India has  2% of world’s land  4% of world’s freshwater resources  16% of world’s population  17% of world’s cattle population  Precipitation  Most of it is confined to monsoon of just about 100 h out of the total 8760 h in a year  Makes irrigation imperative for reliable agricultural production  Necessitates storage in various forms NATIONAL SCENARIO

6.  Per capita availability as on 2001- 1820cm/year  Per capita availability as on 2050- 1140cm/year  Expected population on 2050- 1640 million  Total utilizable SW – 690cubic km  Total replenishable GW- 432cubic km  Annual pption including snow fall- 4000cubic km Indian Scenario

7.  44 rivers  3000 mm annual rain fall  About 29 fresh water reservoirs and lakes  Highest well density  Chain of back water bodies  About 600 km coast line Inspite of all these  Rivers dry up in summer  Ground water is declining  Ponds dry up in summer  Declining discharge of Springs STATE SCENARIO

8.  Is a demand driven project  scientific source identification done Challenges in  Sustainability of sources identified  Water scooping studies to improve sustainability of sources, still sustainability of sources were yet to be achieved This calls for  Reliable source finding  Identifying suitable site for ground water recharging  Conserving and developing ground water.  Better Management of surface and underground water resources JALANIDHI PHASE I

9.  Kerala has limited ground water resources.  In recent times there has been considerable increase in demand for water due to increase in population as well as standard of living and also greater use of water for irrigation and industrial purpose.  Thus it becomes imperative that any large scale water supply project using ground water addresses the sustainability of the resource. WHY WATER SECURITY PLAN IN JALANIDHI PHASE II ?

10.  Sustainability of this limited resource is possible only through implementation of artificial recharge and water conservation measures on a water shed basis wherever feasible.  Hence in JALANIDHI PHASE II Locating and deriving location specific water security plans giving focus on recharging mechanisms is a prerequisite

11. WATER AVAILABILITY IN A REGION HOW WATER SECURITY PLAN ? RAINFALLSURFACE WATERGROUND WATER WATER SHED AQUIFER(WELLS) GROUND WATER PROSPECT PREPARATION OF WATER SECURITY PLAN

13.  The Hydro geological status of the area  The yield and quality  Scope for further development  Plan for artificial recharge  Water budgeting for a specific period  Measures for maintenance of environmental health NEED OF A WATER SECURITY PLAN WSP PROVIDES A COMPREHENSIVE ACCOUNT ABOUT

14.  Preparing a water development plan on the GIS/ available map showing the water resources both ground and surface and plotting the habitations/ wards requiring water.  Identifying good source in terms of quality and quantity  Providing appropriate ground water recharge measures for the selected sources  Rain water harvesting measures required to ensure reliability.  Conjunctive use of surface water ground water and rain water harvesting  water security plan encompassing (i) water quality monitoring at BG level using field test kits, (ii) water quality monitoring at district level, (iii) mechanism to take corrective actions, (iv)water quality surveillance preferably by Government of Kerala, Health department or by agencies as decided by KRWSA  A operating plan - identifying standard operating functions and who will do them OBJECTIVES OF WATER SECURITY PLAN

15.  To generate a scientific data base on ground water souce finding.  The ground water prospect map narrow down the target zones facilitating systematic site selection for drilling  Identifies sites suitable for recharge interventions ensuring sustainability of the source.  Indicate ground water potential zones and critical zones USE OF WATER SECURITY PLAN

16.  Improved water cycle management  Checks misuse of water bodies  Prevents mismatched rate of withdrawal and recharge  WSP provides the platform on which a recharge and conservation programme can be built WATER SECURITY PLAN ENSURES
