Discussions on the Concept Note

• Scope of the Study– Sources (only GW?)– Traditional Sources before interventions?– Baseline information on individual GPs (existing database)

• Adequacy of Indicators– Rainfall and Water level (need for water balance)– Health indicators, Sanitation Extent ??

• Adequacy of Tests – OT test, Water level

• Infrastructure of the GPs• Capacity of the GPs

Discussion of CTARA’s Role• Source Mapping – Zoning of GPs– Mapping of GPs based on the source type, usage,

adequacy• Development of Indicators– Depending on the region, source, treatment, usage

patterns• Guidelines and Standardisation– Regarding identification of sampling spots, collection

and storage of samples, precautions to be taken while sampling and storage, sample preparation

• Framework for Safe Water Plans– GP level water balance plans

Safe Water Plan for GPs

• Survey of supply and demand - projection in next 20 years

• Identification of Drinking water sources for GPs from both Surface and ground water sources

• Developing a water augmenting and management plan• Developing Safe water management systems and

procedures• Developing policy and legal frame work for SDW• Developing capacity building of stake holders• Developing appropriate institutional mechanism
