The Central Ground Water Authority (CGWA) under the Ministry of Jal Shakti has issued comprehensive guidelines for regulating groundwater extraction and promoting sustainable practices like rainwater harvesting and piezometer installation. Here's a breakdown tailored to your interests in borewell services and community education: --- 🛠️ CGWA Guidelines Overview 1. Piezometer Installation - Mandatory for industries and infrastructure projects extracting groundwater. - Must be installed to monitor groundwater levels and quality. - Data from piezometers should be recorded monthly and submitted to CGWA. - Specifications include:   - Minimum depth: same as the borewell.   - Proper casing and locking to prevent contamination.   - GPS-tagged location and unique identification. 2. Borewell Regulation - No Objection Certificate (NOC) is required from CGWA before drilling or using borewells in notified areas. - Borewell construction must follow approved technical stand...

Groundwater is a vital resource for various purposes, including drinking water, agriculture, and industrial use. Monitoring groundwater levels and quality is essential for sustainable water management. Tools such as observation well instruments, groundwater monitoring devices, and water level measuring tools play a crucial role in understanding subsurface water dynamics. Observation Well Instruments: Observation well instruments are specialized tools used to monitor groundwater levels in observation wells. These instruments provide accurate data about aquifer behavior, helping in water resource planning and management. With real-time data, they assist in making informed decisions about groundwater extraction and recharge. Groundwater Monitoring Devices: Groundwater monitoring devices are advanced systems designed to track changes in groundwater levels and quality. These devices are essential for assessing the impact of activiti...
