Source Vulnerability Study

Dear All,
This is a query regarding SVA study of water for a plant. In doing so, how exactly should we address the issue for the villages in the buffer zone for canal water source and drawing a future projection. Kindly share your valuable inputs. Thank you.

Comment by Sangeeta Mukherjee on March 12, 2015 at 1:20am: Right Sir. I'm considering all those points. I needed a particular suggestion in case of canal water source without any watershed in that facility area.. Till what extent of the canal should I include in the impact zone. Thank you.

Comment by Dr S B Katoley on March 12, 2015 at 1:06am: It is a complex study and has to consider the following:

Surface Water(Reservior) Basin

Surface water Recharge Areas

Local Community Water Availability

Community Water Resource Sustainability

Facility Impacts

Treatment System and Distribution Effectiveness

Treatment System

Vulnerability of the water source

Requirements for Facilities that Source Water Directly from the Environment

Raw Water Intake/Extraction Systems

Surface water Access Rights

Potential Pollutant Sources

Current Water Quality and Related Trends within Watershed

Stakeholders

The issues are location specific and would need additions in the study depending on the water requirement of the facility, alternative options to meet the water needs like GW (which will again involve a study of Micro-watershed and hydro-geological studies of the watershed) rainfall patterns etc in the study area.
