City Sanitation Plan, Uttarakhand
CHAPTER-3
Waste Water Management
3.1 Liquid Waste Management / Waste Water management/ sewerage and sewage treatment
scheme
As per the secondary data analysis from ULB Muni ki reti, average daily water supply is 70 Lpcd. As
per the sewage return factor of 0.80 (80 percent of the water supply of Lpcd) the existing waste water
generated is about (based on the population figure of about 10,000 persons) the total waste water
generation is about 0.560 mld. (10,000 persons *70 Lpcd * 0.80 return factor * 1/ 10, 00,000). Nallas
are getting chocked due to improper and direct disposal of waste therefore bad smell in the
surroundings, threats to health, bad aesthetic vision and ultimately a bad image of the city is
spreading about the city and administration. Drainage facilities must be proper in the town especially
near parking area, markets, and hotels to manage the bulk amount of waste water. As the town is not
industrial in nature therefore the grey water problem is not very serious in the town. The main
component of the municipal liquid waste includes sullage and the liquid waste from the open road
side drains.
The roadsides open drains were found choked at few places due to collection of road garbage and
solid waste and polythene waste. This situation creates problem during rainy season as due to
choking of drains the rain water could not find its way for flow and causes water logging at few places
in the locality.
Domestic liquid waste / waste water is ultimately made to discharge in to the open nallas through big
open drains in the town. At few of the places where people have open spaces in front of their houses
they have channelized their kitchen waste water in to their kitchen garden for irrigation purpose as all
the road has not been supplemented with roadside open drains.
