Dire Groundwater Problems

For a number of reasons, groundwater levels are down to a low 64 meters below ground in a number of Delhi neighborhoods. In a city where 17% of the population has no piped water, where most people have two to four hours of water service a day, and where the poor must pay high rates to water tankers, it’s no surprise that many illegally drilled bore wells are extracting large quantities of groundwater. To make things worse, groundwater contamination has been reported in parts of the city.

Construction is booming in the area and new buildings, which often lack permits, cover too much surface area, hindering absorption of stormwater.

Hope for the Future

Officials hope Delhi’s new plan will alleviate some of the city’s water problems. Delhi’s wastewater reuse project is on track to dwarf even Orange County’s massive Groundwater Replenishment System (GWRS), the largest wastewater reuse system to date. Summing up the reuse plan, Jain explained:

'Our government is committed to Clean Yamuna [River] and improve depleting ground water levels of Delhi. On the same lines DJB started using the treated water for activities other than drinking like horticulture purposes or giving it to various other agencies/organizations who can use this water to wash buses, trains, etc.'
