Ground water Recharge – One time investment, Lifetime
Advantage, No replacement, No maintenance!
You do it today, influence all your
neighbors tomorrow and if you are lucky,
you will have pure water sparkling in
your own well!
Rainwater
from roof tops of buildings, roads, payments, playgrounds and many such
surfaces flow out of our city in a normal course. Most of us neglect this
precious water and may consider this as a nuisance!
Simple
interventions which you take in your house or your premises will make a sea
change and literally you can create your own underground lake.
Divert
rainwater in to an existing old well, even if it is dry. Make sure the
rainwater is filtered to avoid debris to enter the well.
or
You
can create a cement ring well. Cement ring wells can be built by digging the
ground (circular shape of 3 or 4 ft diameter) to the required depth (minimum 10
feet) followed by inserting precast cement rings to avoid caving in of the side
soil. Fill up the remaining excavated pit around the rings with jellie
(aggregates or boulders). Do not fill
anything inside the cement rings. Rainwater may be allowed directly
into the well for ground water recharge.
Ground water recharge can also be done through check
bunds, infiltration trenches and infiltration galleries.
Rainwater from the well passes through many layers
of soil and will reach the water table to create large underground lakes.
“We are giving back water to our mother
earth”
You do it today, influence all your
neighbors tomorrow and if you are lucky,
you will have pure water sparkling in
your own well!
