Sub-Regional Plan for Haryana Sub-Region of NCR-2021 Chapter 9 Sewerage, Solid Waste Management, Drainage & Irrigation Town and Country Planning Department, Haryana 207 Chapter 9: SEWERAGE, SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT, DRAINAGE & IRRIGATION 9.1 Sewerage Sewage, also known as “wastewater”, is water-carried waste, in solution or in suspension and intended to be removed from the community. Sewerage refers to the infrastructure that carries sewage. It encompasses components such as sewers, manholes, pumping station and sewage treatment plants. It is estimated that 80% of water supplied find its way into the sewerage system. With rise in population & depleting water resources, the need for recycling of treated waste water is becoming more important. The treated waste water can be used for irrigation, wash rooms, air-conditioning of large buildings, flushing of toilets, cooling towers, thermal power plants, motor garages for washing of cars, etc. 9.1.1 Existing Situation of Sewerage System: As mentioned in Draft revised Regional Plan of NCR 2021, each participating State with the help of the specialized agencies and experts should prepare detailed and integrated Sewerage Master Plans for each city integrated with Land Use Plan of the city. The Master Plan be for at least 20 year horizon period and must cover the extended boundary of the city as per proposed land use. Plan should address area for onsite sanitation and area for offsite sanitation (sewerage system). It should identify land required for STPs and their locations. The plan should provide rehabilitation of the existing network, STPs and Sewage Pumping Stations; extension of the sewer network, increase in treatment capacity, effluent requirements, disposal system, recycling the treated effluent for irrigation, ‘peri-urban agriculture’, urban agriculture, gardening, flushing of sewers and cooling in industries/hotels etc. In many towns sewerage system is quite old. Many of the joints are leaking and is a cause of concern because it pollutes the ground water. It is also observed that untreated sewage is discharged in to the nearest river or drain violating the pollution control Act. However during the non-monsoon period, some sewage is used for irrigation purpose but is limited to small areas in the region and for a few months only.

Chapter 9: SEWERAGE, SOLID WASTE MANAGEMENT, DRAINAGE & IRRIGATION

9.1 Sewerage

Sewage, also known as “wastewater”, is water-carried waste, in solution or in suspension and intended to be removed from the community. Sewerage refers to the infrastructure that carries sewage. It encompasses components such as sewers, manholes, pumping station and sewage treatment plants. It is estimated that 80% of water supplied find its way into the sewerage system. With rise in population & depleting water resources, the need for recycling of treated waste water is becoming more important. The treated waste water can be used for irrigation, wash rooms, air-conditioning of large buildings, flushing of toilets, cooling towers, thermal power plants, motor garages for washing of cars, etc.

9.1.1 Existing Situation of Sewerage System:

As mentioned in Draft revised Regional Plan of NCR 2021, each participating State with the help of the specialized agencies and experts should prepare detailed and integrated Sewerage Master Plans for each city integrated with Land Use Plan of the city. The Master Plan be for at least 20 year horizon period and must cover the extended boundary of the city as per proposed land use. Plan should address area for onsite sanitation and area for offsite sanitation (sewerage system). It should identify land required for STPs and their locations. The plan should provide rehabilitation of the existing network, STPs and Sewage Pumping Stations; extension of the sewer network, increase in treatment capacity, effluent requirements, disposal system, recycling the treated effluent for irrigation, ‘peri-urban agriculture’, urban agriculture, gardening, flushing of sewers and cooling in industries/hotels etc. In many towns sewerage system is quite old. Many of the joints are leaking and is a cause of concern because it pollutes the ground water. It is also observed that untreated sewage is discharged in to the nearest river or drain violating the pollution control Act. However during the non-monsoon period, some sewage is used for irrigation purpose but is limited to small areas in the region and for a few months only. Town wise existing sewage generation & network has been given in the following table 9.1. Table 9.1: Present status of Sewerage system in Sub-Region

There is a projected gap in the treatment capacity of sewage by 554.06 MLD in Haryana Sub-Region of NCR which at the rate of Rs. 7.7 crores per MLD for system and treatment would work out to Rs. 4266.26 crores for the period 2013-21. Public Health Engineering Department in consultation with Haryana Urban Development Authority and Haryana State Industrial and Infrastructure Development Corporation will work out a strategy within a year to cover this gap.

9.1.3 List of projects undertaken with loan assistance of NCRPB:

The details of the projects funded by NCRPB in the Haryana Sub-region relating to sewerage, solid waste management and drainage are at Annexure 9.1 and 9.2.

9.1.4 Issues and Challenges

(a) Recycling of Treated Sewage

The short-comings in the existing sewage treatment plants of Sub-Region will need to be rectified by 2021 and the treated sewage will need to be within the pollution control norms of the Ministry of Environment and Forests. Since, present sewage treatment plants are based on biological digestion process of organic matter; the fecal coli form count in treated sewage will be higher. Further, the use of anaerobic processes for treatment of sewage results in higher count of pathogens in treated sewage as compared to sewage treated using aerobic processes. This may result in spreading of diseases among the users mostly farmers. Hence, it shall be disinfected before being used for horticulture or irrigation. Since, the conventional method of disinfection using chlorination will severely hamper the self purification capacity of natural streams, rivers, canals, etc since aerobic organisms present in natural streams will get oxidized (killed) by the residual chlorine that would remain in disinfected treated sewage which gets finally mixed with natural waters. Hence, treated sewage shall not be disinfected with the chlorination process. It is proposed to disinfect treated sewage using Ultra-Violet method, which is not only economical but also does not have

any residual disinfection effects. Thus, it will not result in killing of naturally growing micro-organisms that are present in all natural waters and contribute to self purification capacity of streams.

(b) Treating sewage upto reusable

standards

A new technology for low cost treatment of sewage should be developed. In this technology, such a design would require more effective designs of flocculation unit, tube settlers, graded series sand filters in addition to primary treatment units such as sedimentation tank and skimmer and more effective grit removal channel upstream of existing sewage treatment plant or membrane bio-reactors, and other modern technologies. It will also require disciplined operation of sewage treatment plant in terms of sludge removal and regular cleaning of polishing / oxidation ponds. There are several pros and cons associated with this technology.

The treated sewage can be supplied to non-beverage industries at a rate lower than the current

one, generating additional revenue and making it self-sustainable. Presently, the sewage treatment

is a liability on urban local bodies and many municipalities and municipal corporations are forced to

(planning) introduce tariffs on sewage.

The water that is not consumed for domestic or industrial usage can be simply discharged into the

river.

Due to the technology being new the scaling up may take up to 3-5 years.

The technology is risky hence it should be made available as a regular practice only after sufficient

trained manpower is available for its design, operations and maintenance. The risk is high because

the biological treatment process discharges very large quantity of E-Coli forms with high

percentage of pathogens and even the slightest failure of disinfection unit due to power failure

may result in outbreak of epidemic in the town.

Since the quantity of colloidal suspended matter is high in sewage treated using conventional

treatment plants, the required dosage of coagulant would be higher. Similarly, due to increased

count of microorganisms in water, the cost of disinfectant would be higher. The prior disinfection

by Ultra-Violet rays would not reduce the dosage of chorine for secondary disinfection since the

chlorine would react and get consumed in oxidizing the mutated (dead) micro-organisms.

waste minimization and utilization of treated waste water for non-drinking purposes

9.2 Solid Waste Management

Solid Waste management is the collection, transportation, processing and disposal, managing and monitoring of solid waste materials. The term usually relates to materials produced by human activity, and the process is generally undertaken to reduce their effect on health, the environment or aesthetics. Solid Wastes are categorized into municipal wastes, hazardous wastes, medical wastes and radioactive wastes. Managing solid waste generally involves planning, financing, construction and operation of facilities for the collection, transportation, recycling and final disposition of the waste.

9.2.1 Existing Situation

The Haryana Sub-Region has a highly productive agricultural economy as well as a robust Industrial base which implies that there are three distinct typologies of waste generation – Urban Areas, Industrial Estates, Bio-Medical Wastes producing sites & Rural Areas and each typology would require a different approach. Urban areas usually generate household waste with a larger biodegradable and relatively smaller non-biodegradable content while commercial establishments generate large volumes of non-bio-degradable waste and e-waste. Industries producing hazardous waste need specialized treatment before any method of disposal may be adopted. Thus, the different typologies of waste depending on their generation source require different management systems to deliver the most efficient results. The varying nature of solid waste generated by different areas may form the base for classification and identification of zones.

Industrial Areas Industrial areas generate effluents as well as solid waste. Smaller industrial units discharge polluting

effluents, which may share the infrastructure by pooling for Common Effluent Treatment Plants (CETP)

while larger industries may be required to set up their own Effluent Treatment facilities. It should be

mandatory to segregate and recycle solid waste. The bio-degradable waste may be treated to generate

electricity. Thus, a zero waste policy may be adopted for all industrial areas. Any hazardous waste should

be governed by the Hazardous Waste Management Rules.

At the moment there is no hazardous waste management site in the Sub-Region. The location of these sites

is governed by the hazardous waste management rules and selection of site location should require an

environmental clearance from the MoEF.

Thermal Power Plants All coal based thermal power plants generate huge volumes of ash. The Haryana Sub-region of NCR has an

operational thermal power plant at Panipat while two more are proposed in Jhajjar (1500+1320 MW). The

ash may be used for the manufacturing of fly ash bricks and as landfill material for roads and other

construction sites.

Urban Areas Sub-region covers an area of 13428 Km2 over 9 districts and accommodates 11.03 million population in

2011. The urban population is 4.78 million . The urban population of Sub-Region is expected to increase

10.65 million by 2021.

The rate of solid waste generation in the region is not recorded by any local body. However, the rate of

solid waste collection indicates that the average generation rate is approximately 0.3 kg/day/capita for

urban areas and that this is expected to increase due to the growing size of cities and increase in income

levels.

Household Waste The quantity and nature of household waste generated depends upon number of factors such as

foodhabits, standard of living, income levels, levels of urbanization and climate. It is estimated that solid

waste generated in small, medium and large cities and towns in India is about 0.1 kg, 0.3 – 0.4 kg and 0.5 kg

per capita per day respectively. Studies carried out by National Environmental Engineering Research

Institute (NEERI) indicates that the per capita generation rate increases with the size of the city and varies

between 0.3 to 0.6 kg/d. In the metropolitan areas, values up to 0.5 kg / capita / day have been recorded.

The estimated annual increase in per capita waste quantity is about 1.33% per year.

The composition and the quantity of MSW generated form the basis on which the management system

needs to be planned, designed and operated. Household waste generally consists mainly of a large organic

fraction (40–60%), ash and fine earth (30–40%), paper (3–6%) and plastic, glass and metals (each less than

1%). The C/N ratio ranges between 20 and 30, and the calorific value ranges between 800 and 1000 kcal/kg.

The nature of waste generated may therefore be classified in three distinct categories:

a. Category 1 & 2 – Large Cities Category 1 includes large urban complexes of Gurgaon and Faridabad which are projected to have more than 1500 MT of solid waste daily. Category 2 includes larger urban areas with a projected generation in the range of 100 MT solid waste daily. Households characteristically produce large volumes of waste per capita and have a lower kitchen waste component. The activity chain for effective management of waste requires integrated logistics to ensure safe disposal and feasible treatment alternatives to cater the population. Disposal mechanisms cannot be limited to landfills since land is a scarce resource and the volumes of waste generated make it impractical. The policy of reduce, recycle and reuse needs to be adopted. Electricity generation and composting from waste and other newer technologies may be adopted on the principles of waste to wealth.

b. Category 3 & 4 – Small Towns Category 3 areas would generate solid waste in the range of 30 to 50 MT daily while Category 4 is small towns which would generate not more than 20 MT daily. The smaller towns generate comparatively lesser volumes of waste and it would be viable to adopt vermin-composting and other intermediate and low cost bio-technologies to effectively dispose waste. Dharuhera, Bawal, Jhajjar, Sohna, Kharkhoda, Ganaur, Gohana are the towns expected to fall in category 3.

c. Category 5 – Rural Areas Rural households generate mostly compostable wastes which may be converted to green manure for each village. Design of such plants is available with the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) and made available to all panchayats for implementation. O&M and other details may be worked out through community participation. Technologies for rural areas could focus on manure generation and biomethanation plants. The manure generated may be used in the same village or marketed through a centralized system. The gas may be used for the purposes of street lighting and cooking. All villages will be included in this zone and the location of treatment facilities may be located as approved by the village panchayats and Block Development Officers.

addition, MSW processing facilities for Panipat, Bahadurgarh, Hodel, Dharuhera, Ferozpur Jhirka and

Farukhnagar are at various stages of planning/ implementation.

Bio Medical Waste

Bio-medical waste generated from hospitals should be treated in accordance with the Bio Medical Waste

Treatment (BMWT) Rules notified under the Environmental Protection Act. However, smaller nursing

homes and clinics find such rules very difficult to follow. Thus, these centers may share the waste

treatment infrastructure with larger hospitals. The common bio-medical waste treatment facilities in

Haryana have been detailed in the table.

These facilities may prove inadequate in course of time and new facilities may be contemplated taking into consideration the increase in the number of beds.

Commercial Waste Commercial establishments in urban areas generate large quantities of very specific waste. A printing shop

will have large amounts of waste paper while a restaurant will generate large amounts of compostable

waste. Each commercial establishment may be required to estimate the volumes of major typologies of

waste generated and submit this at regular intervals mandatorily to the competent authority responsible

for solid waste management of the particular urban area. This would facilitate route policies. Commercial

waste in many cities is being handled by private agencies who find it profitable to treat, recycle and reuse

such waste. These may generate considerable amount of energy and other commercial products.

9.2.2 Process of Solid Waste Management

Solid Waste Management is the primary responsibility of the ULBs and the Municipal Act 1973 details the

provisions for collection, transport and disposal of waste. Also, the MoEF has notified MSW (Management

Common BMWT Facility Equipments No of Est. and Handling) Rules, 2000 under the Environment

Protection Act, 19 vide No. S.O.908 (B) dated the 25th September 2000.

The major functions of civic bodies include:

Prohibiting littering of street

Organizing house to house waste collection.

Conducting awareness programs to disseminate information to public.

Providing adequate community storage facilities.

Use of color code bins and promotion of waste segregation.

Transport of wastes in covered vehicles.

Processing of wastes by adopting an appropriate combination of composting, anaerobic

digestion.

Upgradation of the existing dump sites and disposal of inert wastes in sanitary landfills.

As per the Rules, the citizens are responsible for:

Segregation of wastes at source.

Avoid littering of streets.

Delivery of wastes in accordance with the delivery system notified by the respective civic body.

Also, guidelines and rules for Biomedical Waste and Hazardous Waste have been issued by CPCB, which are

annexed at Annexure 9.3 for reference.

9.2.3 Issues and Challenges

The Sub-Region has seen commendable urbanization and growth in industrial investment which is likely to

continue owing to the positive investment climate of the region. This intensive activity would require a

robust infrastructure back up not only in terms of inputs like water, power and transport but also in terms

of waste management. Municipal Corporation of Gurgaon (MCG) along with Municipal Corporation,

Faridabad, has set up an advanced integrated solid waste processing facility at Bandhwari. The current

status of waste management in the Sub-Region is unsatisfactory. Waste was traditionally dumped without

treatment. However, with the increase in the volumes of waste generated and the growing demand on

land, this practice has been found impracticable. The Regional Plan-2021 for NCR outlined certain

actionable points which have been partially achieved as detailed below:

Local bodies have been assigned the responsibility of SWM but most municipal bodies face insurmountable challenges in their bid to deliver an efficient SWM system. Lack of knowledge, funds and awareness and organizational inadequacies are the major reasons for poor SWM infrastructure. Thus, each ULB shall prepare a Solid Waste Management Plan by formulation of a generic format and specifying the detailed methodology; complying all norms, standards, guidelines and legislation and relevant best practices and mandating a timeline and governance structures. Specific inputs for resource mobilization, institutional improvements and training may be organized as a common forum for regular exchange. Major issues in Solid Waste Management are as follows:

No organized and scientifically planned source segregation.

Municipal solid waste is usually disposed as it is without any treatment. Most of MSW is still disposed off in dumps causing severe environmental and health risks.

Lot of materials can be recovered from waste for recycling which can then serve as an input for manufacturing of particular significance are cellulosic materials, plastic, metals and glass.

A vigorous policy framework to give a direction and thrust to environmentally sound waste management is required.

To support waste management one of the most pressing issues is the availability of funds.

9.2.4 Policies and Proposals

Department of Urban Local Bodies (DoULB), has proposed to construct Sanitary landfills and supporting Composting plant for disposal of Solid Waste by grouping 2-3 towns with bigger towns in the vicinity where either land is available or can be made available. As an exercise to this effect the DoULB has identified 19 Urban Centres in services of disposal of Solid Waste and status of land and collection of Solid Waste generation. In addition, Detail Project Reports (DPRs) for Solid Waste Management for Rohtak city has been approved by Ministry of Urban Development, GoI under JNNURM & UIDSSMT schemes.

As per the above table, it is observed that Gurgaon, Faridabad, Sonipat & Rewari are leading districts in waste generation due to their urban characteristics. The following policies and proposals are recommended for effective solid waste management:

An amount of Rs. 149.9 crores would be required for Solid Waste Disposal for the period 2013-21.

Segregation at household level should be encouraged / at source into biodegradable (wet) waste and non-biodegradable (dry) waste.

Door-to-door collection of waste should take place on a daily basis on either pushcarts or rickshaws (non-polluting transportation).

The non-biodegradable waste should be segregated by category at the waste handling site. The recyclable waste can be sold to companies that have machinery and expertise to recycle the material.

All employees of ULB need to be trained in SWM, including the linkage between a deteriorating environment, waste, and human health, the treatment and management of waste, principles behind composting and recycling, occupational hazards, health and hygiene, collection and transportation procedures, etc.

An important step to motivate and engage the general public is via continuous public awareness campaigns based on a public strategy (IEC- Information, Education & Communication).

SWM requires the involvement not only of a technical staff with knowledge of the SWM system but also of the whole of civil society.

9.3 DRAINAGE

9.3.1 Background and Existing Situation Drainage is an important element of physical infrastructure and constitutes removal and disposal of surplus

rain/irrigation water from the land. It has two aspects namely flood protection and removal of storm

water. The extremely gentle gradient prevalent almost all over the region restricts the degradation

activities of the streams/drains. It is, therefore, necessary to plan the drainage system in an integrated

manner with adjoining States. Topography, rainfall intensity, soil characteristics, irrigation methods, crops

and vegetation cover are important factors for deciding the type and design of drainage system. Since

urban expansion is inevitable, increased run off would require remodeling of the existing drains as well as

provisions of new/supplementary drains, implementation of appropriate flood protection measures,

protection of natural drainage course, improved ground water recharge, and other environmental

improvement measures such as prevention of sewer flows into the storm drains, pollution of river Yamuna

etc.

Drainage area of Yamuna Sub Basin comprises of area of Yamuna Nagar (part), Karnal, Panipat, Sonepat,

Rohtak, Jhajjar, Rewari, Gurgaon, Mahendergarh, Jind (part), Faridabad districts. It covers about 40% area

of the state and it drains into river Yamuna. Experiencing high flooding during heavy rainfall, diversion

drains were constructed in the northern portion of this catchment namely channelization of Chautang

Nallah, Main Drain No. 2 and Diversion drain No. 8 out falling into river Yamuna in the North of Delhi. Ujina

Diversion Drain was constructed to outfall into river Yamuna in Haryana territory in the South of Delhi to

check drainage congestion through Khaluka Regulator in Rajasthan. Due to the construction of a

number of bunds in Rajasthan territory in catchment area of river Sahibi, Krishnawati, Dohan and

Landoha Nallah originating from Aravali hills of Rajasthan, now the flood problem in Rewari,

Mahendargarh, Jhajjar and Mewat has reduced considerably. The problem arises only when there is heavy

downpour in low lying pockets.

Sub-Regional Plan for Haryana Sub-Region of NCR-2021 Chapter 9 Sewerage, Solid Waste Management, Drainage & Irrigation

Town and Country Planning Department, Haryana 219

Important drains of Yamuna Sub Basin area are Chautang Nallah, Dhanaura Escape, Nissing Drain, Indri

Drain, Main Drain No. 2, Nai Nallah Drain, Drain No. 8, Diversion Drain No. 8, Out-fall Drain No. 8, Najafgarh

Drain, Chhapra Drain, Meham-Lakhanmajra Drain, KCB Drain, Supplementary Drain, Nuh Drain, Ujina

drain, Ujina diversion Drain, Gaunchi Main Drain.

Some of the towns have combined system of disposal for sewage and storm water. However generally it is

not designed as such but by default in absence of sewerage system, the drains actually act as combined

system both for sewage and drainage. The disposal of storm water is generally not planned properly and

takes natural course on land, depressions, ponds etc. Separate systems for sewage and storm water

disposal are recommended for implementation.

9.3.2 Issues and Challenges Untreated sewage continues to flow in most of the drains in the region and ultimately falls into Yamuna.

Encroachment by slums along the drains cause choking of drains and flooding in the upstream areas due to

reduced carrying capacity. Dumping of solid waste in the drains also causes blockage. Drainage Master

Plans are required to be prepared district wise and city wise. Ideally, hydraulic survey should be carried

out regularly to assess the conditions of the drains.

Lack of Regional Approach There is a need to adopt integrated regional approach for drainage planning. Each major drainage system

under basins/sub-basins of NCR at micro level should be critically examined by each constituent State

Government to assess the deficiencies in planning, design, maintenance and to suggest remedial measures

including remodeling/improvement work wherever necessary.

9.3.3 Policies and Proposals The Regional Plan envisages the following strategies and policies to improve the drainage system:

A. Regional Approach to Drainage Integrated Regional Drainage Plan at the regional level and sub-regional level; Drainage Master Plans at the district level and city level should be prepared after critically examining each major drainage system under basins/sub-basins of NCR at micro level by the State Governments and ULBs incorporating the improvement proposals for enhancing the quality of Sub-regional and local drains taking into account the present/future development and settlement pattern in the region. The area drainage plan should be considered as an integrated part of the Master Plan of the area and this drainage plan should take into account the land development planning for the region. All developments in controlled areas falling in dark and over exploited block declared or to be declared in future by CGWB should aim towards zero run off within the controlled areas. The ponds/lakes/wetlands (existing and proposed), bunds/check dams etc. should be developed/protected to increase the run off time of storm water in order to help in ground water recharging.

B. Norms and Standards The urban drainage system should be designed as per norms and standards stipulated in CPHEEO manual for Sewerage for internal as well as peripheral drains. The likely time of concentration for each case may be worked out and corresponding storm values adopted.

i. The rural drainage system may be designed for three days rainfall of five years frequency to be drained in three days. An appropriate area dispersal factor should be adopted for computing the run off.

ii. The coefficient of runoff may be calculated for areas with composite land use pattern on the basis of anticipated land use in the new areas and existing land use pattern for the areas already developed.

Page 14: Haryana Sub Regional Plan SRP FOR WEB-HOSTING/09... · Sub-Regional Plan for Haryana Sub-Region of NCR-2021 ... al f ate r D ) Capacity of STPs ... 7 Rohtak 3,81,798 7,64,603 171

Sub-Regional Plan for Haryana Sub-Region of NCR-2021 Chapter 9 Sewerage, Solid Waste Management, Drainage & Irrigation

Town and Country Planning Department, Haryana 220

iii. Where it is not possible to work out the run off coefficient due to land use policies not indicated, run off coefficient not less than 0.2 may be adopted for rural areas with flat to moderate slopes and 0.4 for steeper slopes. For urban area, run off coefficient not less than 0.6 may be adopted in absence of adequate details of the areas.

C. Prevention of Storm Water Drains from Pollution Measures should be taken to prevent the use of storm water drains for conveying sewage and dumping of solid wastes and sludge in open drains. Enforcement should be done under the Environment Protection Act, 1986. Unauthorized development/encroachment/slum dwellings in the drainage system should be prohibited.

D. Irrigation Water Where irrigation canal escapes including the tail escapes outfall into the drains or in the neighbouring ponds, provision for efficient draining of surplus irrigation water by enhancing their capacity should be made while planning for improvement in the integrated Regional Drainage System.

E. Provision of Funds Provision of adequate funds should be made for upgradation and regular maintenance of the drains on the same lines as for the irrigation channels.

F. Avoid Piecemeal Approach In cities sometimes drains are constructed to drain water from some road/locality without considering final disposal of storm water. This only leads to a shift of the problem. As such first master plan of drain should be prepared and only then drains should be provided so as to integrate with master plan proposals.

G. Other Measures i. Drainage system which requires pumping should be avoided as far as possible ii. Planning of drainage system should be based on the concept of retention of rain water where it is

received as much as possible, by ponding, retardation dams, grass waterways, pavements with interspaces, rain water harvesting structures, etc.

iii. Follow the principle that the drains should carry only rain water. iv. Develop land around drain as public recreation place. v. Protect drainage area from pollution vi. The operation and maintenance of drains should be done regularly and properly. The growth of

grass and plants need to be removed to maintain the carrying capacity of the channels. vii. The drains have become dumping grounds of solid waste and carriers of sewage due to absence

of Solid Waste Management and absence of sewerage system in the cities. This is blocking drains, reducing flow capacity and making drains to emanate foul smell. The natural gravity flows are restricted and require O & M at high cost in removal of debris and silt deposits. As such cities should be covered with solid waste management system and sewerage system to make drainage system effective and functional.

viii. Industrial waste disposal in drains to be stopped.

H. Plan of Action and Phasing of Implementation of Strategies/Policies/Proposals In order to implement the policies of drainage in the region, it is imperative to have a phase wise plan of action so that the implementation of policies and proposals can be dovetailed with the five-year plans. In view of this, each recommendation has been phased plan-wise where certain activities are to be completed within first five-year of the implementation. The area of Haryana falling in NCR have been provided efficient drainage system but the effort should be to ensure that the entire NCR does not get flooded and the runoff is drained effectively. Similarly, there is an

effective flood control system in NCR that protects the area. The drainage system and flood control works will be rehabilitated to keep them fit. Some of the activities which need to be implemented include preparation of Integrated Regional Drainage Plan at the regional level and Drainage Master Plans at the District level to manage regional and local drains, avert mixing of sewage and solid waste in storm water drains, creation of mass awareness, waste minimization through recycling of waste, regular maintenance and upgradation of drains etc. Investment requirement in this sector will depend upon the District Level drainage Master Plans to be prepared by the respective State Governments and the Integrated Regional Drainage Plan.

9.4 IRRIGATION

9.4.1 Background and existing situation:

Irrigation and Water Resources Department is the principal department of the Haryana state for development and management of surface water resources, operation, maintenance & construction of canals and watercourses, flood control & management, river training works. One of the main responsibilities of the department is to ensure availability of water from various rivers according to the various interstate agreements & orders and further equitable distribution in the State for irrigation and other uses. Canal System For supply of irrigation water, Haryana has developed an extensive irrigation network consisting of 1479 channels having a length of 14541.81 km. There are two main canal systems in Haryana namely Bhakra Canal System & Western Yamuna Canal System. Bhakra Canal System with the Culturable Command Area (CCA) of 12.91 Lac Hectares receives water from Haryana’s share in Satluj, Ravi and Beas Rivers whereas Western Yamuna Canal System with the CCA of 8.62 Lac Hectares receives Haryana’s share in Yamuna River. Both the systems have been linked with each other so as to use the water from one system in other and vice versa. Lift Irrigation System having CCA of 8.19 Lac Hectares was constructed to lift water upto 464 feet in stages to provide canal water by gravity flow to adversely sloping areas. The NCR area of Haryana has a well-connected canal system for irrigation and this system also provides raw water for drinking water schemes of major towns. This system is fed water from both the sources i.e. Bhakra canal system and Yamuna canal system. Since many areas in NCR, particularly the districts of Rewari, Jhajjar, Rohtak and Mewat, are at higher elevation, this area is given water by the Lift Irrigation System. The National Capital of Delhi is also supplied water for drinking needs and for irrigation from the canal system of Haryana. In recent times, Haryana has constructed two canals namely NCR Channel and Carrier Lined Channel for supplying water to NCR areas of Gurgaon & adjoin areas and Delhi respectively. Thus the present canal system of Haryana is well developed not only for the State but also for the area of Haryana falling in NCR.

Water Requirement:

Drinking water requirement for the Haryana Sub-Region in the year 2005 was 460 MCM and the projections for the year 2021 are 789 MCM. The estimated annual water demand of the Sub-Region in the year 2021 for drinking water, industry and agriculture is projected to be 9775 MCM as mentioned below:

Drinking Water : 789 MCM/annum

Industrial use : 286 MCM/annum

Irrigation : 8700 MCM/annum

Total Demand : 9775 MCM/annum

Sub-Regional Plan for Haryana Sub-Region of NCR-2021 Chapter 9 Sewerage, Solid Waste Management, Drainage & Irrigation

Town and Country Planning Department, Haryana 222

This water requirement cannot be met from river Yamuna alone. The average annual water availability of

river Yamuna up to Delhi has been assessed at 12,000 MCM. The Ganga basin is also water deficit up to

Allahabad. Present canal system of Yamuna, Ganga and Bhakra Beas meet the surface water demand of

NCR and NCT-Delhi. A part of the demand is also met from ground water. However, entire NCR, including

Haryana Sub-Region, has been witnessing decline in ground water levels. A more detailed analysis of

ground water availability and decline in water levels is given in chapter 8 on Water.

9.4.2 Issues and Challenges

Since Haryana does not have a perennial source of surface water, the State draws its share in waters of the

rivers of Satluj, Ravi and Beas of Indus basin and river Yamuna of Ganga basin. But the availability of water

is far less than 50% (including surface water and groundwater) of the total demand and the State is even

unable to draw its allocated legitimate share due to non-completion of Satluj Yamuna Link canal and linking

of BML-Hansi Branch-Butana Branch Multipurpose Link Channel.

In such a scenario, multi-pronged approach needs to be adopted, i.e. demand management instead of

supply management, conservation of available water, augmenting availability of water by adopting short-

term and long-term measures. In short-term, early completion of SYL canal and linking of BML-Hansi-

Branch-Butana Branch Multipurpose Link Channel can substantially increase availability of water to NCR.

Further, completion of upstream storage dams namely Renuka, Kishau & Lakhwar Vyasi on river Yamuna

and Sarda-Yamuna Link proposed by NWDA are long term measures ensuring availability of water for NCR

areas of Haryana.

(a) Lack of Ground Water Recharging Resulting in the Depletion of Ground Water The rate of development of the groundwater resources is unsustainable with most of the districts of the

Haryana Sub-Region of NCR sliding into the dark zone category. This is due to lack of ground water

recharging, higher rate of withdrawal; fast pace of urbanization and reduction in run off time for rainwater.

Thus, recharge of groundwater needs to be taken upon priority.

(b) Sources Outside the Region Planning and development in the Sub-Region, for the existing situation, is based upon the assurance of

water supply from the three proposed dams in the Himalayas, for augmenting surface flow. The

infrastructure work on these dams is held up for want of clearances. Even if the construction is initiated

immediately, these dams would not be ready for use for next 10-15 years, thus jeopardizing the water

supply.

Further, an MOU was signed on 12.05.1994 between the Chief Ministers of the Co-basin States of Haryana,

Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh, Himachal Pradesh and NCT Delhi regarding annual allocation of water with an

objective to take care of the irrigation and consumptive drinking water needs. As per this agreement,

annual allocation to Haryana is 5730 MCM. The MOU also provides for separate agreement to be executed

in respect of each storage identified in the Upper Yamuna river basin within the overall allocation made

under the agreement.

9.4.3 Policies and Proposals

Haryana is deficit in availability of water as to the State is only 14 MAF as compared to the requirement of

36 MAF. Moreover, demand of water is likely to increase with the development of NCR. In such a scenario,

multi-pronged approach needs to be adopted, i.e. demand management instead of supply management,

conservation of available water, augmenting availability of water by adopting short-term and long-term

Page 17: Haryana Sub Regional Plan SRP FOR WEB-HOSTING/09... · Sub-Regional Plan for Haryana Sub-Region of NCR-2021 ... al f ate r D ) Capacity of STPs ... 7 Rohtak 3,81,798 7,64,603 171

Sub-Regional Plan for Haryana Sub-Region of NCR-2021 Chapter 9 Sewerage, Solid Waste Management, Drainage & Irrigation

measures. In short-term, (i) immediate commissioning of Carrier Lined Channel, (ii) early completion of SYL

canal and (iii) linking of BML-Hansi-Branch-Butana Branch Multipurpose Link Channel can substantially

increase availability of water to NCR. Further, (i) completion of upstream storage dams namely Renuka,

Kishau & Lakhwar Vyasi on river Yamuna and (ii) Sarda-Yamuna Link proposed by NWDA are long term

measures for water resource availability of NCR.

Another important issue is pollution of Yamuna river while passing through 22 km stretch in Delhi area.

Proper treatment of wastewater and effluent will also provide water for secondary uses, which will reduce

burden on demand of freshwater.

Haryana Irrigation and Water Resources Department has an extensive network of irrigation channels which

is catering to the irrigation and drinking water needs of the areas of Haryana falling in NCR and a

comprehensive plan needs to be prepared for keeping the system always functional by taking suitable

structural measures.

(i) Artificial Recharging and Ground Water Harvesting:

a) Artificial recharge through rainwater harvesting in ponds, Yamuna flood plains, paleo-channels, ox-

bow channels, construction of small check dams at favorable locations in part of the Ridge for

recharge, etc.

b) Utilizing surplus canal water during monsoon period for recharging the depleted aquifers.

c) Roof-top rainwater harvesting has been made mandatory in building bye-laws.

(ii) Demand Management of Water:

a) It is expected that the treated waste water from sewerage system in the region would be around

387 MCM per annum which must be put for agricultural/non-potable use to reduce the overall

demand for water for irrigation purposes.

b) It is expected that water requirement for industrial purposes by the year 2021 in the region would

be 286 MCM per annum, therefore, it is recommended that water based industries should not be

allowed in the region.

c) Drip Irrigation method should be promoted in the region to save water from irrigation sector. Even

if 25% of the water is saved, it would amount to saving of 2175 MCM per annum.

d) Decentralization of authority, responsibility and technical units along with community awareness,

participation and monitoring of various aspects is a must for any successful water resource

management system.

(iii) Plan of Action and Phasing of Implementation of Strategies/Policies/Proposals In order to implement the policies of irrigation in the sub-region, it is imperative to have a phase wise plan

of action so that the implementation of policies and proposals can be dovetailed in the five-year plans.

These include Integrated Water Resource Management Approach for the region for optimum water

resources utilization and demand management, augmentation of water resources by adopting rainwater

harvesting (micro and macro) and recycling/reuse of treated waste water, adopting sprinkler/drip

irrigation. Investment Plan shall be prepared at micro level planning at the town/district level by the

concerned Department.

receiving residues of waste processing facilities or mixed waste or waste having contamination of hazardous materials (such as aerosols, bleaches, polishes, batteries, waste oils, paint products and pesticides) minimum liner specifications shall be a composite barrier having 1.5 mm high density polyethylene (HDPE) geomembrane, or equivalent, overlying 90 cm of soil (clay or amended soil) having permeability coefficient not greater than 1 x 10

-7 cm/sec. The highest level of water table shall be at least two meter below the base

of clay or amended soil barrier layer; c. Provisions for management of leachates collection and treatment shall be made. The treated leachates shall

meet the standards specified in Schedule- IV; d. Prevention of run-off from landfill area entering any stream, river, lake or pond.

Water Quality Monitoring 23. Before establishing any landfill site, baseline data of ground water quality in the area shall be collected and kept

in record for future reference. The ground water quality within 50 metres of the periphery of landfill site shall be periodically monitored to ensure that the ground water is not contaminated beyond acceptable limit as decided by the Ground Water Board or the State Board or the Committee. Such monitoring shall be carried out to cover different seasons in a year that is, summer, monsoon and post-monsoon period.

24. Usage of groundwater in and around landfill sites for any purpose (including drinking and irrigation) is to be considered after ensuring its quality. The following specifications for drinking water quality shall apply for monitoring purpose, namely :-

S.No. Parameters IS 10500: 1991 Desirable limit ( mg/l except for pH)

Ambient Air Quality Monitoring 25. Installation of landfill gas control system including gas collection system shall be made at landfill site to minimize

odour generation, prevent off-site migration of gases and to protect vegetation planted on the rehabilitated landfill surface.

26. The concentration of methane gas generated at landfill site shall not exceed 25 per cent of the lower explosive limit (LEL).

27. The landfill gas from the collection facility at a landfill site shall be utilized for either direct thermal applications or power generation, as per viability. Otherwise, landfill gas shall be burnt (flared) and shall not be allowed to directly escape to the atmosphere or for illegal tapping. Passive venting shall be allowed if its utiliztion or flaring is not possible.

28. Ambient air quality at the landfill site and at the vicinity shall be monitored to meet the following specified standards, namely :-

S.No. Parameters Acceptable levels

(i) Sulphur dioxide 120 mg/m3 ( 24 hours)

(ii) Suspended Particulate Matter 500 mg/m3

(iii) Methane Not to exceed 25 per cent of the lower explosive limit (equivalent to 650 mg/m

3 )

(iv) Ammonia daily average(Sample duration 24 hrs) 0.4 mg/m3 (400

(v) Carbon monoxide 1 hour average : 2 mg/m3

8 hour average : 1 mg/m3

29. The ambient air quality monitoring shall be carried out by the concerned authority as per the following schedule, namely:-

(a) Six times in a year for cities having population of more than fifty lakhs; (b) Four times in a year for cities having population between ten and fifty lakhs; (c) Two times in a year for town or cities having population between one and ten lakhs.

Plantation at Landfill Site 30. A vegetative cover shall be provided over the completed site in accordance with the and following specifications,

namely :- (a) Selection of locally adopted non-edible perennial plants that are resistant to drought and extreme

temperatures shall be allowed to grow; (b) The plants grown be such that their roots do not penetrate more than 30 cms. This condition shall apply

till the landfill is stabilized; (c) Selected plants shall have ability to thrive on low-nutrient soil with minimum nutrient addition; (d) Plantation to be made in sufficient density to minimize soil erosion.

Closure of Landfill Site and Post-care 31. The post-closure care of landfill site shall be conducted for at least fifteen years and long term monitoring or

care plan shall consist of the following, namely :- (a) Maintaining the integrity and effectiveness of final cover, making repairs and preventing run-on and run-

off from eroding or otherwise damaging the final cover; (b) Monitoring leachate collection system in accordance with the requirement; (c) Monitoring of ground water in accordance with requirements and maintaining ground water quality; (d) Maintaining and operating the landfill gas collection system to meet the standards.

32. Use of closed landfill sites after fifteen years of post-closure monitoring can be considered for human settlement or otherwise only after ensuring that gaseous and leachate analyses comply with the specified standards.
