Chapter ñ 8 Final Report: Ambur <strong>Municipal</strong>ity<br />
The current practice of water transmission and distribution indicates that the water is<br />
drawn both through pumping and gravity methods from the sources and<br />
transmitted to the Ground level service Reservoirs located at various zones. Then the<br />
water is distributed for the local supply through individual service connections and<br />
public stand posts located at the various locations.<br />
The existing distribution system comprises of distribution network from the service<br />
reservoirs to the individual house service connections and public fountains/stand<br />
posts, which covers 63% of the total municipal road length (105 Km) in the town. The<br />
existing network system is laid out to cover dense population located in the different<br />
parts of the town.<br />

Network length 66.55 km<br />
Storage capacity 19.2 Lakhs Liter<br />
Storage reservoirs 8 Nos<br />
At present, the per capita supply of water is 67.1 lpcd which is supplied for the<br />
duration of two hours at alternative day to all household connections and public<br />
fountains. The current water requirement is 89.90 Lakh litres per day. As per CPHEEO<br />
standard for a town which has a sewerage system, required to supply water @ 135<br />
lpcd. So the demand of water supply is calculated @ 135 lpcd. Table 8.6 summarises<br />
the demand supply scenario in the town.<br />
