Title

A Case Study on Existing Status of Water Supply in Ward No. 17 of Belagavi City

Abstract

Belagavi district is the fourth largest district in Karnataka and is located in northern Karnataka, bordering the states of Maharashtra and Goa. Belagavi has an average rainfall of about 808 mm usually (the state average being 1035 mm) with a substantial water table. As per the 2011 Census, Belagavi City Corporation (BCC) situated in Belagavi Taluka, has a population of about six lakh. The town is situated nearly 2,500 feet (762 m) above mean sea-level. The main source of water for Belagavi is “Rakaskopa” and “Hidkal” reservoirs. The weak monsoon had lead to the deflection of water level at “Rakaskopa” and “Hidkal” reservoirs. The levels at the “Rakaskopa” across the Markandeya river, the main source of water to the city situated 18 km away was hardly one feet above the bed in April 2015. The concerned authorities are drawing 9-10 MGD of water from “Hidkal” dam across Ghataprabha river nearly 51 km from the city to suffice the drinking water needs of the residents. Out of the 58 wards from the Belagavi city the ward taken under the consideration for the case study is the ward No. 17. It consists mainly 5 percent of the Belagavi’s area. It has the population of 10,176 according to the 2011 census obtained from the city Municipal Commission Belagavi. Four houses were selected from ward No. 17 and determination of discharge is carried out. Based on the frequency of supply and duration per capita supply was determined as 71.424 lpcd, which is very less considering the needs. The people are deviating to alternate source i.e. groundwater for their water needs. There are 79 open wells and 34 borewells from which an average of 1500 liters are extracted. Supply from the Municipality for the selected area is 169.5 m3 per day and Alternate sources provide an additional 726.79 m3 per day. Total quantity of water used by the people in ward No. 17 is 896.26m3 per day.
