3. Fluoride contamination in drinking water is a
public health problem in many areas around
the world.
In addition to fluoride-affected Indian states
like Gujarat, Rajasthan, Punjab and Andhra
Pradesh the specified regions of Birbhum
and Purulia districts of West Bengal have
already been declared to be fluoride-polluted
by the Public Health Engineering
Department.
Fluoride is known to cause diseases like
dental fluorosis, Alzheimerโs disease,
dementia, skeletal fluorosis, abnormal
thyroid function and other hormonal
disturbances.

4. Arsenic Contamination of Groundwater
in which more than 137 million people
worldwide are at risk of various medical
disorder including cancer may be
termed as the Greatest Environmental
Disaster in Twentieth Century
The countries affected are Bangladesh,
India , Vietnam ,Inner Mongolia, China,
Eastern Europe, Western USA , Mexico ,
Chile, Argentina & covering new areas

5. Arsenic affected stretches in Ganga Plains in India with reference to
The Ganga-Meghna-Brahmaputra Plains.

6. 111 blocks in 12 districts have beyond permissible
limit of .05mg/l
Eastern side of Bhagirathi River in the districts of
Malda, Murshidabad, Nadia, North 24 Parganas
and South 24 Parganas. And western side of the
districts of Howrah, Hugli and Bardhman are
mostly affected with arsenic contamination.
Long term effects of Arsenic Poisoning :
Increased risk of cancer of lung, bladder, kidney,
liver. Severe damage to Nervous System and the
skin.

11. 1. Target Area : Considering more than 90% ground water usage
in Agriculture & Livestock and nearly 69% of population lives
in rural area , Target = Rural India
2. Approach Towards Safe Drinking Water : INDUCE Awareness
towards water quality, optimum use & conservation of water.
Selection of Purification Process based on Source, TDS ( Total
Dissolved Solids ) & type of Contaminations
Dr. Dipankar Adhya 51st
Annual Convention Of Indian Water Works Association
12. 1. Can cater even remotest rural population where piped water supply will be of high capital
& maintenance cost.
2. Bare minimum system loss
3. Supply of value added safe drinking water at a minimum cost induces sense of thriftiness
and optimum use of water in daily life.
4. Being rural area as primary coverage where 69% of Indian population resides and use more
than 90% ground water extracted โ A little more rationality in water use will have great
impact .
Dr. Dipankar Adhya 51st
Annual Convention Of Indian Water Works Association
13. 1. On identification of project site, awareness camps involving local population/ beneficiaries
especially women should be organized.
2. Selection of Technology Should be simple for O & M. with back up service from suppliers.
3. Project should add value to generate willingness to pay for the water.
4. Generate income / financial incentives for O & M group.
5. Generate Direct & indirect employment to the local youth.
6. Design of the System & project should develop a sense of confidence of the users & better rural
water management.
Dr. Dipankar Adhya 51st
Annual Convention Of Indian Water Works Association
14. 7. Treatment of arsenic rich sludge, if any, should be complied with and disposed off suitably.
8. Integrated Rain Water harvesting & Ground water recharge to develop a sense of appreciating
water as valuable & scarce commodity.
9. Create necessary awareness to the rural population to adopt better practices of agricultural
water management.
10. With reduction in water extraction for agriculture, construction of check dams and ground
water recharge the magnitude of arsenic contamination will decline in each zone with
implementation of such decentralised safe drinking water projects.

20. SUSTAINING WATER RESOURCES THROUGH
COMMUNITY BASED DECENTRALISED SAFE WATER
PROJECT
1. As far as possible adopt Media Based Purification System โ Less Process
waste as only back wash water is wasted.
2. In case of R.O. fix โRecovery %โ at just below maximum permissible limit
of harmful contaminants. This will ensure minimum possible reject
water.
3. Install operational and examplary โRain Water Harvestingโ and โGround
Water Rechargeโ . Try to reduce gap between Extraction & Recharge
4. Utilise waste water to public sanitation to reduce fresh water use.
21. SUSTAINING WATER QUALITY THROUGH
COMMUNITY BASED DECENTRALISED SAFE WATER
PROJECT
1. In Media based Filtration โ Back washed water should be disposed off to
ground water recharge or to drain only after sand bed filtration to avoid
deterioration of ground water quality.
2. In R.O. based system care should be taken not to discharge reject water
in open field or drain or stream leading to canal or river or to agricultural
field Reject water discharge in open field resulting to Arsenic or other heavy
metals leaching to aquifer and entering into food chain.
3. Reject water having high level of harmful contamination should be treated to
facilitate precipitation of arsenic etc as sludge which could be
Bioremediate suitably.
4. Solid waste generated either media based system or R.O. based system in
Arsenic affected zones should be discharged as per protocol or sent for
bioremediation. ( Presently majority of decentralised RO system
discharging reject water without any protocol or treatment )

25. COMMUNITY PARTICIPATION TO ENSURE SOCIAL
COMMITMENTS IN SAFE WATER DECENTRALISED
PROJECTS
1. Community Participatory projects comply social commitments unlike
individual entrepreneurship which tends towards Profit Maximization.
2. To ensure compliance towards laid down O&M norms , the followings should
be steps should be maintained :-
a) Awareness Camps & Consent for participation
b) Need Assessment Survey
c) Formation of Water Committee with participation from Panchayet ,
d) Installation of Projects
e) Operation & Maintenance (O&M) group and their training.
f) Quality Control team and their training.
g) Administration, Marketing/ distribution and Accounts.

30. FINANCIAL : Cost of Project ` 6 to 7 Lakhs.
Capacity โ 4,000 litres/day in single shift operation.
Sales /day @50 paise per litre ` 2,000
Pro rata O & M cost per day ` 550
Monthly Surplus or incentive ` 43,500

becoming physically, financially & Socially disabled due to
cancer and related diseases.
