Puttenahalli lake is a 13-acre lake located in JP Nagar, Bengaluru between apartment complexes. It currently has public access and is surrounded by slum dwellings. The lake depth varies from 6 to 18 feet with a clay surface. It receives stormwater and treated water inflow totaling 4.5 lakh liters per day. The lake has an attached constructed wetland that is smaller in size and receives the inflow. It contains native plants and trees and sees algal blooms. There is also a small planted island in the lake and the surrounding slum residents grow some fruits and vegetables.
South Korea Enacts Tax Revision Bill: Update from International Tax Complianc...Nair and Co.

Lamborghini launches a rear-wheel drive version of its Huracán coupe, the Huracán LP 580-2, in India priced at INR 2.99 crore. The rear-wheel drive sports car is designed to provide an intense driving experience with reengineered styling, weight reduction, and recalibrated systems that emphasize rear-wheel driving fun. Key specs include 580 horsepower, a 0-100 km/h time of 3.4 seconds, and a top speed of 320 km/h.
Krishna Lilac employs an integrated water management approach with three prongs - water sub-metering to record individual household usage and bill transparency, rainwater harvesting with 90% roof coverage and storage in a shallow aquifer, and wastewater reclamation for gardening and car washing. This has helped reduce water demand by 15% to 165 liters per capita per day. Rainwater storage has decreased dependency on water tankers by one tanker load daily. Treated wastewater reuse could further reduce demand by 15% if used for all home flushing. While recharge has improved borewell yield, the effect was not as large as expected.

TWCA Annual Convention: TWCA Contested Case Hearing Reform, Derek SealTWCA
This document summarizes recent reforms to contested case hearings before the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ). The reforms, enacted through Senate Bill 709, aim to streamline the permitting process by narrowing the scope of who can request a hearing, establishing that a draft permit demonstrates prima facie compliance with requirements, and capping hearings at 180 days. The reforms have faced some criticism for potentially limiting public participation and judicial review of TCEQ permitting decisions. Implementation of the new law will be tested as the first cases subject to the reforms proceed.
