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 />

8.1.4 Demand Supply Scenario<br />

Distribution system Details<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 />
