Final Report TNUDP III<br />

2. A database consisting of model bid documents, success models, sector wise PPP<br />

consultants and operators can also be formulated.<br />

Infrastructural Projects:<br />

Water supply project<br />

1. As regards water supply projects, the consultant proposes using available local sources<br />

(surface water) in lieu of capital intensive projects from far off sources. The enforcement of<br />

RWH in all buildings is a commendable initiative, which has proven successful in improving<br />

the quality and quantity of ground water table according to a recent study. Rejuvenation and<br />

protection of water bodies and recycling, reuse of water is also a major issue to be<br />

addressed in this regard. Participation of SHGS, voluntary organizations, resident welfare<br />

associations need to be sought.<br />

UGSS project<br />

1. Highly engineered and mechanized conventional sewage treatment requires large Capital<br />

Investment; demand high maintenance costs are not feasible for the developing countries<br />

like India. Capital intensive and highly technological waste disposal solutions, utilizing<br />

indiscriminate collection and large-scale disposal, do not consider the value of recovering<br />

organic waste resources and do not promote recycling. The land required for the disposal of<br />

treated wastewater in the conventional treatment systems is not readily available in and<br />

around urban area. Alternative treatment systems like Root zone treatment methods could<br />

be used.<br />

2. GoTN may also encourage recycle of water, to meet requisite standards rather than let them<br />

out into streams or sewage farms. This will not only promote water recycling , but also<br />

resource recovery of minerals.<br />
