WATER CONSERVATION &
MANAGEMENT
SCENARIO IN RURAL AREAS OF
PUNJAB
2. Water is essential for
sustaining life.
Conservation and
management of this scarce
commodity is utmost need
in present times.
2
3. The water conservation efforts can be categorised for:
Habitat conservation. Minimizing human water use
helps to preserve fresh water habitats.
Sustainability. To ensure availability for future
generations, the withdrawal of fresh water from an
ecosystem should not exceed its natural replacement rate.
Energy conservation. Water pumping, delivery, and
wastewater treatment facilities consume a significant amount of
energy. Energy conservation is one of the most important part in
improving water management practices.
Rooftop Rain water harvesting. The method of
recharging ground water by harvesting rainwater has gained
importance. It has been made mandatory for all new water
supply schemes being constructed. 3
4. Govt. of Punjab has already
approved a Rural Water Supply &
Sanitation Policy 2014 on 24.2.14
that supports water conservation &
improving water management
practices
4
5. 5
Realizing the need for institutional and investment reforms in the rural water supply and
sanitation sector, Government of Punjab has reworked its rural water supply and sanitation
policy:-
•Sustainable water supply: To ensure the availability, quality and
sustainability of domestic water supplies by
(1) conserving existing water sources
(2) improving the efficiency of existing schemes (including reduction of losses)
and their financial viability;
(3) using all possible options of water treatment as per requirement;
•User participation: To ensure effective participation of users in developing,
operating and maintaining water supply services and to empower them to manage their
own water supply and environmental sanitation services.
•Institutional capacity: To improve institutional capacity and human
resources of government departments to provide efficient, effective and sustainable water
and sanitation services, by working with empowered and capacitated local communities
6. In order to rationalize the consumer payment as per
consumption of water, metered connections are being /
proposed to be provided. It has been observed that wastage of
water has been curtailed to a large extent and there is
increase in public satisfaction particularly among poor
sections of the society.
Now DWSS shall pursue the following initiatives:
Convert all existing unmetered water connections to metered ones within the next 5 years
Ensure that all household connections from new water supply schemes are given metered
connections
Phase out public taps by ensuring 100% rural households with individual water
connections
Provide private water connections inside of outer boundary of individual houses in a
phased manner, as per priority given below:
Priority 1: Villages with more than 70% households with private water connections
Priority 2: Villages with 50-70% households with private water connections
Priority 3: Villages with less than 50% households with private water connections
Prioritize provision of private water connections for scheduled caste and scheduled tribe
households in all villages 6
7. Punjab Govt. through DWSS has successfully completed and closed on 31.12.14,
first World Bank Aided Rural Water Supply & Sanitation Project wherein
participation of Panchayati Raj Institutions/ Beneficiaries under Sector Wide
Approach was key focus for implementation with following salient features:
7
PRIs through GPWSC to be
responsible for up gradation and
management of all intra-village RWSS
facilities & services
DWSS to be responsible for managing
complex multi village water supply
schemes with improved fiscal &
operational performance, and provide
support to Gram Panchayat Water Supply
& Sanitation Committees(GPWSCs) for
single village schemes
Introducing Partial Capital Cost
Sharing by users as an expression of
their demand/personal
involvement
Realization of user charges &
funding for recurrent O&M cost
from the user community
Redefining DWSS role from direct
service delivery to facilitation and
partnership
8. I. Need Based to Demand BasedWater Supply Schemes
Adopting Sector Wide Approach (SWAp) for all Schemes
implemented under MTP with partial capital cost sharing by
users
II. Role of Governance from Provider to Facilitator
Changed role of DWSS to effectively manage and monitor the
use of participatory processes and demand responsive approach
Work closely with empowered PRIs and local communities
III. Financial and Operational Sustainability of Scheme
Empowerment of villages & GPWSCs by using creative social
recognition & Capacity Building programs
SWAp-Paradigm Shift
8
9. Orientation of DWSS from
Civil to Social Engineering
role through:
Overall RWSS program management
including IEC and M&E of activities,
outcomes and impacts
Planning and construction of
community sanitation schemes with
active participation of GPs and
households
Organizing social, technical and
management support to GPs and
GPWSCs for all intra-village RWS
schemes
SWAp-Decentralized Service Delivery Approach
9
10. Harnessing Stakeholder for the New
Roles
Orientation of (GPs / GPWSCs) for:
Planning, technology selection
Procurement, construction
O&M management of water supply schemes
Tools Employed:
Training of PRIs on PRWSS project
Training on Operation and Maintenance
Training for women empowerment
Training of village technician, Plumber, Operator
waterworks and GPWSC members
Training on Quality Aspects
Capacity Building of Stakeholders

GOP’s vision was to develop an eco system to provide 24X7 water supply coverage to all villages in Punjab (including remote) with higher service standards and Individual household service connections coupled with modern underground waste water collection and disposal system.
Adoption of 5 point framework to realize the vision:
Rural local governments with user groups to be responsible for up gradation and management of all intra – village RWSS facilities and services.
DWSS to be responsible for managing complex multi village water supply schemes with improved fiscal & operational performance, and provide support to Gram Panchayat Water Supply & Sanitation Committees (GPWSCs) for single village schemes.
Introducing partial capital cost sharing by users as an expression of their demand; and
Financing of recurrent Operations & Maintenance cost by user communities
