Mumbai Water Supply- Broad Features Mumbai’s Current Population:13 million Mumbai’s water supply: 3350 MLD Non-revenue water:20-25% Domestic per capita water availability:180 lpcd (excluding 20% leakage & Ind./Com. Demand) Avg. Hours of Supply:2 to 4 hours The per capita water availability in some cities having 24X7 water supply:- London : 150 lpcd Singapore: 160 lpcd Kuala Lumpur: 120 lpcd Paris: 150 lpcd Phnom-Penh: 45 lpcd Thus Mumbai has enough water to switch over from the present intermittent pattern to Continuous pattern of water supply provided: 1. Non revenue water is reduced significantly 2. Customer Demand is managed (including wastage) 3. Supply is augmented as per rising demand (new sources for future demand are created)

24X7 Water Supply- Myths & Realities 24X7 water supply is an achievable objective with proper technical & Managerial reforms. Myth: The continuous water supply:  Needs more water  Expensive  Is it necessary?  Is it achievable? Truth: The intermittent water supply  Consumes more water.  Requires huge capital investment & coping costs  Associated with the water pollution & leakage management problems  The system is never designed for intermittent supply  Reduces the asset life

Intermittent System Consumes More Water 1.Consumer taps are usually kept open. 2.There is a tendency to store more water what is required. 3.The ‘STALE’ water is thrown to store ‘FRESH’ water. 4.High peak needs strong network and more capital investment. 5.Low pressures increases the coping cost of the consumer 6.Leak detection & management is difficult.

Benefits of 24 x 7 Water Supply 1.Improved public health through reduction of water pollution. 2.Better system: Demand management by efficient metering and rationalization of tariff 3.Better leak detection & control measures. 4.Higher consumer satisfaction: willingness to pay more and on time. 5.Investments in the network can be optimised. 6.Consumer can utilize his time more productively. 7.Reduction in the coping cost on the consumers. 8.The unregulated ground water exploitation and its negative environmental impact prevented. 9.Overall economic boost: Improved infrastructure attracts Industry / Commerce.

11 Major Water Sector Initiatives  Source Augmentation  Demand-side Management  Supply-side Management Transition from Intermittent to 24X7 Water Supply

12 Source Augmentation - Long Term Plan In the year 1993, the Govt. of Maharashtra appointed an expert committee under the chairmanship of Dr M A Chitale (Ex-Secretary, Irrigation Dept) for advice on the long term planning for augmentation of water supply to Mumbai. The committee recommended development of following sources in phases The GoM has accepted the Dr. Chitale Committee recommendations and has approved allotment of these sources. The MCGM has therefore taken up the Middle Vaitarna Project as an immediate additional source of water supply.Simultaneously feasibility of Gargai and Pinjal Projects is currently being studied and the report of the Consultants, M/s Mot Mcdonald & Co. in this regard is currently under scrutiny.

Demand Supply Scenario lakhs lakhs lakhs Source: Dr. Chitale Committee Report Demand in Mld Supply in Mld Present Supply 3350 Mld

14 Source Augmentation III A Mumbai Water Supply Project Project based on Bhatsa Dam Original cost: Rs. 667 cr; Revised estimate: Rs.739 cr Earlier scheduled for completion in 2009, this project is fully commissioned in May 2007, giving 355 mld of additional water to Mumbai Present allocation of 355 mld water for the project has been renewed for 5 more yrs after Additional allocation of 300 mld okayed for Mumbai from Bhatsa Dam for five years till Middle Vaitarna Project is completed.

15  Project is based on a new dam to be constructed between Upper Vaitarna dam and Modak Sagar  Environmental Clearance along with permission for diversion of 634 ha of forest land received from the Ministry of Environment & Forest, Govt. of India  Detailed estimates of all the components of the scheme prepared through Consultants.  Tenders invited for most of the components of the Project Agency fixed for the Tunnel & Pipeline components  The work on the Project expected to start in Oct  Rehabilitation Plan for the 43 Project Affected Persons has been submitted to the District Rehabilitation Officer Thane for implementation after securing approval of the State Rehabilitation Authority Approved Project Cost: Rs.1, crore Proposal for financing under JNNURM cleared in February ’07 by the Government of India.1 st installment of grant released.

18 Demand/Supply Side Initiatives Apart from source augmentation, the Corporation is also taking a number of measures on both, the Demand side as well as the Supply side to ensure greater efficiency and consumer satisfaction.

19 Demand Side initiatives Universal metering is being introduced to enable the citizens pay as per their consumption Expressions of Interest have been called for short-listing one or more agencies for supply, installation, operation/maintenance & reading of water meters throughout Mumbai. The agency will be appointed by the end of November Telescopic Rates to encourage conservation of water are proposed to be introduced after installation of meters on the connections to domestic consumers of planned buildings Proposed Tariff Structure is as under : Upto 150 lpcd One time 150 to 200 lpcd Two times 200 to 250 lpcd Three times 250 lpcd & above Four times Proposal is under consideration at the level of the Group Leaders and the Standing Committee. Prepaid water meters- water connections with prepaid meters are proposed to be given to the inhabitants of unauthorised slums & structures so as to avoid stealing of water & tampering of the watermains and thereby cut down the wasteful use of water.

20 Supply Side initiatives Comprehensive Water Supply Distribution Improvement Programme is being taken up under the guidance of a reputed Consultant, broadly along the following lines - Water Distribution Management & NRW Reduction: 1. Digital mapping of the utility on GIS compatible base maps. 2. Hydraulic modeling of the entire network. 3.Hydraulic model of DMA, each comprising about 1000 connections % Consumer metering, Bulk metering and District Metering set-up. 5.Water balance and estimation of NRW/UFW 6.Leakage detection, Repairs / Rehabilitation / Replacement plan 7.Water balance. If NRW within limits, implement 24X7 supply 8.Introduce pressure regulating devices for equitable distribution 9.Introduce / upgrade Distribution management tool ‘SCADA’
