Proposal to monitor groundwater resources
August 25, 2009
Recently, a discussion on protecting and conserving groundwater resources was organized by the Central Ground Water Board (CGWB). Experts participating in the discussion stressed on monitoring and conserving ground water resources. A pilot project has been initiated involving the CGWB and the State Planning Board for efficient monitoring of groundwater. The use of satellites was recommended to uplink groundwater monitoring stations across the State.
The discussions also proposed a collaborative effort involving the Centre for Earth Science Studies, the Centre for Water Resources Development and Management, the Oil and Natural Gas Commission, the National Institute of Oceanography and the CGWB to study the impact of global warming on the coastal aquifer system as well.
