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

  2. 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 WATER

  3. WATER SECURITY • 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.

  4. NEED OF WATER SECURITY GLOBAL SCENARIO

  5. NATIONAL SCENARIO • 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

  6. Indian Scenario • 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

  7. STATE SCENARIO • 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

  8. JALANIDHI PHASE I • 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

  9. WHY WATER SECURITY PLAN IN JALANIDHI PHASE II ? • 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.

  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. HOW WATER SECURITY PLAN ? WATER AVAILABILITY IN A REGION RAINFALL SURFACE WATER GROUND WATER AQUIFER(WELLS) WATER SHED GROUND WATER PROSPECT PREPARATION OF WATER SECURITY PLAN

  12. NEED OF A WATER SECURITY PLANWSP PROVIDES A COMPREHENSIVE ACCOUNT ABOUT • 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

  13. OBJECTIVES OF WATER SECURITY PLAN • 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

  14. USE OF WATER SECURITY PLAN • 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

  15. WATER SECURITY PLAN ENSURES • 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

  16. STAKE HOLDERS OF WATER SECURITY PLAN 1. STATE/KRWSA 2. PRI/GP 3. NGO/SO 4. BG/USER GROUP

  17. ROLE OF STAKE HOLDERS • 1. ROLE OF KRWSA/STATE • is responsible for the preparation of TOR for the consultant’s preparation of water security plan of GP • Ensure that approved TOR will be followed for the preparation of water security plans of all GPs • Procurement, selection and placement of consultant for the preparation of water security plan for the GPs as per the procurement norms. • To execute the agreement with the selected consultant and monitor the works. • is responsible for review the progress, evaluate and approve the reports of the water security plan submitted by the consultant. release of payments to the consultant as per the conditions of the contract on approval of the reports • Audit of accounts

  18. 2. ROLE OF GP/PRI • To extend all required support to the water security plan preparation consultant • Ensure that reports are prepared timely by the consultant • To ensure that the draft water security plan is presented before the GP council for their information and awareness. • ENSURE THE SUSTAINABILITY OF THE SOURCES IN THE GP

  19. 3. ROLE OF SO • Provide available baseline data and other records collected regarding GP to the water security consultant for the preparation of Water Security Plan. • Provide the required field level facilitation support for the preparation of water security plan for ensuring the sustainability of all sources selected . • Motivating and supporting implementation of interventions proposed in the WSP

  20. 4. ROLE OF BG • Provide basic data of terrain of area • Provide the required field level facilitation support for the preparation of water security plan • Ensure that the source selected is sustainable by implementing the interventions proposed in the WSP. • Monitor the water quality and water level so as to ensure sustainability
