Abstract
Availability of ground water in
Sangamner Taluka is ranging in between 5.5 and 10.25 m
below ground level, out of the available ground water
sources about 75 % is unfit for drinking purpose. Scenario
becomes worse during the summer. Most of the
groundwater sources are contaminated due to intensive
irrigation and effluent discharge by Sugar Factories in the
Pravara river basin. Ground water is depleting day by day
leading to increased concentration of contaminant such as
TDS, Alkalinity , Hardness , Ca, Mg ,Cl. Rural areas are
facing drinking water scarcity due to increased use of
available ground water sources for irrigation use and
deteriorating water quality due to intensive irrigation,
excessive use of fertilizer and other anthropogenic sources.
Overall ground water quality scenario is not
bright. Looking to situation the samples were collected for
the study area from dug well, bore well, hand pump and
percolation well during Pre monsoon and Post monsoon
period. Collected samples were analyzed by physicchemical
method recommended by NEERI. Obtained
results were further used for assessing the ground water
quality status by using NSFWQI method.
Normal statistic of the parameters is computed
and tabulated. Moreover, Correlation Coefficient is
calculated amongst the all water quality parameters
obtained during the analysis. These results are further used
for regression analysis. The parameters which are strongly
correlated with each other are selected for developing the
Regression Equation. The equation thus formed provides
the mathematical tool for assessing the Water Quality and
to frame the Management Plan accordingly.
