PREVIOUS WORK

"I fie (•\i'ea ha<b been shidied by the Rooloqical Hurvey of

fndia m the late suities, which are di<->cussed as follows.

District and concluded that the aquifers B.r<--i interconnected

m nattirea lUs worl- w< s o-i generalised natui'e as it pertairied

to the study of the whole district rather than specific

basin„

Nazeer and Fahmi (1986) sludged the hydrog€?o3 ogy and

the groundwater resource potential of the A.MJJ. Campus.. They

delineated the oqui(sr system in the area through a fence

diagram down to the taedroci- and tiirough the hydrogeoloqica ]

c ross-sDctions „ ALI (1987) studied in duta\il the hyrirogefjlogy

of the &reo lying around the A.H.U. Campus. He also

rielineated the aquifer system, and water quality m the

Campus and around. However, Ahmad & Ali (1990) studied in

parts the hydrogeology of Aligarh city and they delineated

the gruundwaiter trough m the southern p£*i'1 of ttie city as a

resultant effect of excessive withdrawals. As, the ground

w£\tor IS the only source of water supply in the city. The

heavy withdrawal of groundwc^ter has recently resulted in

water level decline in the city and environ airound it.

Besides, determining the aquifer geometry and water quality,

the rate of decline per year and remedici. 1 measure to contain

the situation remains to be done.

The present study comprises reconnaissance survey

•f'ol lowed by the detailed hydrogeological investigation,

involving setting up of 50 observation wells network,

collection of hydrogeological data and Wciter samples from the

d u g w e 11 s „ R e p e a t w a t e r 1 e v e 1 m e a s u r s m e n t d u r i n g t h e p r e a n (:;l

post-mansoon periods were carried out during 1989.

Sand samples from a drilling site in the arcssn were

collected and mechanically analysed and their hydrological

p a ram e t r e s were s t u d i e d.

In all 29 water samples of dug wells were collected., The

water samples were chemically analysed in order to study the

chemical quality of the ground waiter in the area. Out of 29

samples, 6 samples were analysed for the trace element

studies and 23 samples were studied for the major ions.

On the basis of the data collected, soil map of the

area was prepare?d «

Rain f a 11 data were co 11 ec ted , pre:)cessed , p 1 o11ed and ,

analysed, and the frequency of drought analysis were made on

the basis of the departure from the normal.

The hydrogeological data were processed and utilised

for the preparaition of depth to water level, waiter level

fluctuation and, water table contour maps of the area. In

ordejr to depict the aquifer disposition penal diagram and

various hydrogeological cross-sections were prepared.

The results of the chemical analysis we;re utilized in

the preparation of specific conductance, isochlore and

hardness maps. Besides, sodium percentage diagram, U.S.

Salinity diagram were also prepared. Moreover, water balance

study of the? arBs. was also carried out to estimate the

utilizable groundwater resource potential and also to suggest

remedial measures to contain the declining trend of the water

table. Finally, all these were utilised in the quantitative

and quailitative evaluation of the groundwater resourcces of

the study area in the form of the present dissertation.

PHYSIOGRAPHY &

DRAINAGE

Page 20: AQUIFER SYSTEM AND GROUNDWATER POTENTIAL OF KARWAN … · Table 1. Result of Statistical analysis of annual rainfall at Aligarh, Tehsil Kol, Distt. Aligarh. Table 2. Result of drought

PHYSIOGRAPHY

The arect under i n v e o s t i g a t o i n may be de^vided i n t o two

d i s t i n c t p h y s i o g r a p h i c u n i t s .

1. Central Depression.

2. Western Upland.

3. .. Central Depression

West of the upper Ganga canal lies a broad centraxl

depression continuing throughout the Tehsil from NW to SE

bounded roughly by upper Ganga canal on one side and G raind

Trunk Road on the other.

It is charaxcterised by a heavy clay soil, imperfect

natural drainage and numerous lakes in which the surface

water collects without finding an cid equate outlet. In

consequences of the resultant saturation, the fertility is

ma^rred by frequent stretches of bai.rren usa^rs and soil

sa 1 in isa t ion pa. tc hes .

The d express ion appE>ars to be caxrved out by any big

river. Another possibility regarding the origin of this

depression is attributed to a saigging in the bedrock

topography, which was latter filled up by the Gannga a.nd its

t r i b u t a r i e s . T' h e 1 e v e 1 v a r i e s f i'- o m M W t o S E with a n a. v e r a g e

gradient of 0.26 meter/ki lomete^r«

2.Western Upland

Beyond the central depression the surfc:ice rises up

which forms the Western upland. The G.T. Roa d passes over

this upla\nd.

It is charaicterised by sajndy to sandy loam. In the

North-West, the general chairatc teristics of the Doata arei

Page 21: AQUIFER SYSTEM AND GROUNDWATER POTENTIAL OF KARWAN … · Table 1. Result of Statistical analysis of annual rainfall at Aligarh, Tehsil Kol, Distt. Aligarh. Table 2. Result of drought

maintained by loam alternating with clay in the depressions

and lighter ground on the banks of few dr^iinage channels.

Further West of Aligarh city presents some what remairkable

features i.e., a light sailed and distinctly sandy tract of a

very homogenous type, in which there ars practica11y no

depresions, whereas the only variation in the general level

o f the CoL.in tr• y are those f ormed by the minu.tB valley of

Ka rwan and the 1 ines o f sand h i 11 s .

DRAINAGE

As far as the drainage is concerned the study area is

drained merely by Aligarh Drain. Which enters into the areci

from north and passes through the western part of the city

and flows further due south.

CLIMATE AND RAINFALL

Climate

The area falls under sub-tropical climatic zona and is

characterised by hot summer and chilly Winter. During summer

the temperature shoots up to 47''''C and in Winter some times

falls to 2°C.

Rain -fall

The monsoon norma 11 y breaks in the se?cond wee|:: of June

and ends in September. Heavy precipitation takes place in

the months of July and August. The airea on an average

recieves 760 mm rainfall per year.

Areal Distribution Q-f Rainfall

topography of the terrian, leading to the terrigenous clastic

depositional system, which sort's typically represented as the

channel, flood plain and back swamp deposits.

CHANNEL DEPOSITS

The typical channel deposits of the river 6anga as

observed in the study area from bottom upward cQmpri'->e

coarse through me-?dium to fine sand, and a. very thin clay

layer on the top. This top clay and some fine sand layers

a.re washed away during the succeeedincj flood period and a

fresh body of sand with fining upward sequence is deposited

a g a i n 6> a c h Y e a r, forming thereby a re a s o n a b 1 e t h i c k

terrigeneous deposits till the river changes its course due

to some tectonic control through convulsion. These thick

bodies of sand form the potential aquifers.

FLOOD PLAIN DEPOSITS

During the flood season when the flood water overflows

the banks, medium to fine sand bodies of moderate thickness

and of limited areal extent are deposited over the flood

plain. These lenticular bodies of sand form the moderately

potential 1 aquifers in compearison to the highly potential

aquifers of the channel deposits. The lenticular shape of

these aquifers is due to the fact that flooding takes place

in a limited stretch of the river banks at a time.

BACK-SWAMP DEPOSITS

From the high banks, the flood water, moves down the

slope towards the low lying areas where it is left

Page 39: AQUIFER SYSTEM AND GROUNDWATER POTENTIAL OF KARWAN … · Table 1. Result of Statistical analysis of annual rainfall at Aligarh, Tehsil Kol, Distt. Aligarh. Table 2. Result of drought

23

predominantly with the suspended materials only, which get.

settled under the influence of gravity and form a lensoid

body of sand which is latter on overlain by clayey hori2:on.

Thus there occurs enclaves of sand bodies intercalated within

the underlying and overlying thick clay beds. Such taodie?s of

sand form the poor aquifers. These aquifers are typical

representatives of back swamp enviorenme^nt.

Further, as the river changes its course, the position

of the channel, flood plain and baick swamp deposits also

continue changing with the passage of time. This is the

re^ason that no continous body of sand or clay &re found in a.

borehole except in the extraordinary geologic conditions.

Thus the lithological variations stres attributed to their mode

of deposition by the constantly shifting nature of the stream

draining the-? area.

The various aquifer systems, thus generated by river

Yamuna and its tributers Carvan and Sengar are as follows

(ax) The channel deposits are thick bodies of aquifers of

infinite areal extent, hence form the most potential

groundwater reservoirs.

(ta) Floodplain deposits form the lenticular type of

aquifers, limited in thickness and areal extent and are only

moderately potential.

(c) Lensoid bodies of sand occuring as enclaves or

stringers within the thick clay bed, generally forms the low

potential aquifejrs often with quality problems-

AQUIFER GEOMETRY

The fence diagram (F'la tes Vll) and various geological

cross-sections (Plate V111~X1) of the study &re& depict the

lateral and vertical disposition of the aquifers. Th» litho--

Units show alternate clay and sand formations. There occurs

three to four-tier aquifer system. Aquifers seem to merge

with each other and thus developing a single bodied aquifer.

The granular zones comprise 40 to 50 pc-:;rcent of the; total

formations encountered at various depths. The deepest well

drilled is down to the depth 150 meters b.g.l, which lies in

the vicinity of Aligarh City and situated in the western

upland. Here the Claty formation has attijined considerable

thickness, and predominance of the clay to the granular zones

merely form 50"/. of the total litho-Units encountered.

However,, the Clay beds pinch-out laterally. In the central

depression the; granular ::oneos a^re considerably thick and

forms about 55 percent of the litho-Units down to the depth

of 110 meters b.g.l.

Fine through medium to coarse sand generally comprise

the aquifer material in the area, and are of varying shades.

The nature is predominently micaceous. Eiased on the persual

of ff^nce diagram as well as the geological cross-sections,

lithologs of bore holes and their hydrogeological properties,

the aquifers can obviously be described into two categories.

a. Shallow aquifers - They occur to the depth of 50

meters b.g.l.

a.Shallow Aquifers

Shallow aqui-fers mainly comprise fine to medium sand

and varies in thickness from 3 meters to 26 meters. The

groundwater occurs in these aquifers under pheratic

conditions. These aquifer are generally tapped by open wells,

strained. The discharge of these wells varies from 30 to

50m'~'/hour at nominal drawdown of 3 to 4.5 meters.

b.Deeper Aquifers

The deeper £^quifers sire encountered generally within

the depth range of 50 to 150m b.g.l. The perusal of fence

diagram and geological cross-sections re?veal that the deeper

aquifers are semi-confined to confined in nature and by and

large they form an interconnected aquifer system. The

thickness of the aquifers range between a minimum of 3 meters

(Plate XI) to a maximum of 28 mt^ters (F'late IX) m-aximum. The

state tubwells tape the granular zones lying in the depth

range of 38 to 150 meters.b.g.1. The discharge of these wells

varies from 50m'^/hour to 227m'"'/hour with a drawdown varying

from 2 to 11.7 meters.

DEPTH TO WATER LEVEL

Water table is the upper surface of the zone of

saturation in an unconfined aquifer, at which the water

pressure* is equal to the atmospheric pressure. It is

defined by the levels at which water stands in the wells that

penetrates the aqui+'er, just G?nough to hold standing water.

However, in c^eneral the water level standing in dug wells are

considered accurate enough to represent water table of an

area.

Water level data of 50 dugwells evenly spaxce d at a

distance of one kilometer were utili2:ed to prepare the depth

to water level maps of the study area. Plates XII and XIII

show depth to water for the pre-monsoon (June--S9) and post-

monsoon (November--89) periods respectiv£?ly„ In the pre-

monsoon period the depth to water ranges between 8.7 to 15.00

meters b.g.l. and in post-monsoon period it rangers between

8.06 to 14.05 meters b.g.l. The arBB. has been divided into

five depth to water ::ones varying from (1) less than 8m, (2)

S t0 10m.b.g.l., (3) 10 to 12m (4) 12 to 14m <5> 14 to 16m

.b.g.l. The deepest water level 15m. b.g.l was recordcv?d at

Rasaiganj in the western upland and the shallowest 8.70

m.b.g.l. at Flathgawan in the central deipression. A perusal

of the map shows that in the upland ansa, the depth to i-jater

generally, varies from 11.50m to 15 m. b.g.l. which covers

major portion of the study area.

The shallow water table in the central depression

is the indicative of the recharge through the run-off from

upland area. The deep water table in the upland area is due

to the presence of thick clay beds and low recharge.

MOVEMENT OF SRQUNDWftTER

Water level data of wells c;:c)llG?cted during the pre

monsoon and post monsoon periods, were analysed and altitudes

of water level with reference to the mean sea level were

worked out. The reduced level of water with reference to the

mean sea le)vel were plotted and water table contour map was

prepared, with contour interval of one meter.

The water table contour maps are used in deciphering

the groundwater flow direction, gradient and area of recharge

and discharge. In such maps convex contours indicate the area

of groundwater recharge and the concave contours the area, of

groundwater discharges, (Todd, 1980),

The elevation of water table ranges between 179 meters

in north-west to 171 meter's in south-east above the mean sea

level. A perusal of water taible contour (Plates XIV & XV)

show that the general direction of groundwater is from North­

west to South-East with little variation at places caiused by

the local factors. In the Northern part of the area, flow is

from east to west. In general, the gradient varies from

o.37m/Km to 0.1m/Km. The areas with wide contour spacing

(flat gradient) seems to posses high hydraulic conductivity

than those with a narrow spacing i.e. steep gradients.

In the Noth-Western part of the area the

hydraulic gradient is very steep i.e. 5m/km. This steep

gradient is due to low permeability of aquifer material.

Plates XIV and XV show that two groundwater

troughs have been formed in the western and south-eastern

parts of the area. These troughs are the indicative of

HYDROBRAPH

The water levels o-f the key observation well has

been utilised -for preparing continuous hydrograph of the well

with a view to study its behaviour with respect to time and

space and its dependence to natural phenomenon. The

hydrograph o-f the well for the period of 1980 to 1990 is

given in Plate XVI. A perusal of hydrograph indicate that the

water level variation is cyclic and sinosoidal as a function

of time and space. The water level is deepest during the

month of June and shallowe^st during the month of November. It

is observed that water level starts rising by the last week

of June and attains shallowest level in November. F"rom mid-

November onward there is sharp decline in water level till

January. From January onward the recession in water level is

slow indicating natural groundwater discharge through steady

sub-surface outflow, in harmony with regional ground water

movement.

From the above? discussion it will be seen that the

water level has a rising and declining trend with respect to

time and a function which causes such rises in water lesvels

i.e input source of groundwater (ram fall).

WATER-LEVEL FLUCTUATION

The waiter level fluctuation is a function of time

and space in response to precipitation. The change in water

levels in an aquifer can also be caused due to the excessive

pjrincipal source of groundwater recharge, water table rise

has sympathetic relation to a rainfall in a particular

period. Intensity, duration and distribution of rainft^ll Bre

the controlling factors for groundwater recharge. However

topography also plays a vital role on the water table

fluctuation and quantum of recharge. It is observed that the

water tables is de e p in topographic; high and shallow in

topographic lows; correspondingly, the annual fluctuation of

water tatble is more in the uplands and less in the

depressions. Water level fluctuation map (Plate XVII) shows

the difference in Pre and post-monsoon water levels. In all

there are four distinct water level fluctuation zones, viz

(1) <0.2m (2) 0.2-0.4m (3) 0.4-0.6m (4) >0.6m. In genera1 the

water level fluctuation is recorded between 0.2-0.4 and 0.4-

GRAIN SIZE ANALYSIS OF THE AQUIFER MATERIAL.

F'article size of Bangetic alluvial deposit is an

important tejctural element as it is related to the

hydrodynamic condition of transportation and d£-?position«

The most common methods of measuring particle size is

sieving. The f:>urpos£? of the mechauiical analysis is to obtain

graphic or numerical data about the particle size in a

sediment. Size analysis has been used in determining, if a

sand will contain water.

Various workers have attempted particle size ainalysis

to determine various hydrogeological parameters like

effective grain size, uniformity coe f f icient, hydrau„ilic

coductivity etc. (Kruabezn & Monk 1942, Bedinger 1961, Cohin

1963, Preuss & Todd, 1963, Masch 1966, Uma et.al., 1989,).

In the present study aquifer materials collected from a

drilling site were mechianicaly analysed.

The equipment required for sievt^ analysis include a

small hot plate for drying the samples, a set of standard

testing sieves and an accurate physical balaince for weighing

the aquifer material . A repressentative sample of 100gm was

taken in laboratory by coning and quatering, ovan dried and

Page 59: AQUIFER SYSTEM AND GROUNDWATER POTENTIAL OF KARWAN … · Table 1. Result of Statistical analysis of annual rainfall at Aligarh, Tehsil Kol, Distt. Aligarh. Table 2. Result of drought

e;;act weight poured into the top sieve and covered with a

lid. The whole nest was shaken through electrical sieve

shaker for about 15 minutes and material retained in each

sieve was accurately weighed auid data obtained were

statistically analysed Appendix (IVA &. IVB) . F-'ercentage of

material passing through e ach sieve gave a point on grading

curve. The grading curve was plotted on a semi-log paper

(Plate XIX) and following parameters were deprived.

1 - Effective grain size.

The term effective grain size was developed by Allen

Hazenf (1892), in his studies of filter sands, he defined as

particle size where 107. of sand is finer and 907. coarser.

Uniformity co£^fficient of a sediment is a measure? of

how well sorted or poorly sorted it is. The uniformity

coefficient CU is the ratio of the grain size i.e.^ 60Z

finer by weight , d . 0, to the grain size i.e., 107. finer by

weight, dj^ .

CU - d 0/di(g

A sample with a CU less than 4 is well sorted, if the

CU is more than 6, it is poorly sorted.

Hydraulic Conductivity;

Hydraulic conductivity was evaluate?d by using formula

of Uma et.al., (1989).

K = A (di0)2

Where

A is a constant halving value 6 for alluvial aguifers

dj0 is effective grain size.

The result of size; analysis shows that the effective

grain size ranges betweejn 0.088 to 0.12, which shows that the

samd size ranges between medium to fine..

The uniformity coefficient ranges between 0.183 to

2.27. The? result of uniformity coefficient shows that the

porosity of upper aquifer is higher than the deeper one. The

hydraulic conductivity ranges between 77.15 m/day to 40.08

m/day. The result shows that the hydraulic conductivity

decreases with depth.

Quantification of groundwater and surface water

resources of any taasin (or area) involves the application of

principle of conscervation of mass, to account for the

quantitative changes occuring in the various components of

hydrogeologic cycle as applied to the basin. The quantitative

changes may be expressed as a water balance equation, in

which the inf 1 ow, outf low and change in stc:;raige in a pe>r• iod

of time are represented by individual components. The

groundwater balance may be expressed in the form of an

equation as;

I - 0 ~ s

For the proper, management and conservation of

groundwater, refined quantitative answers are require^d. In

Uttar-Pradesh, on the one hand, there is a large scale water

logging in all canal command areas, on the othe- r hand, the

excessive withdrawal has resulted into the declining water

leivel in all tubewell irrigated arenas.

In thej study area groundwater forms the only source of

water supply for domestic, industrial and irrigational

purposes. So, in accordance to the present situation the

precise evaluation of groundwater resource at the block/

city/ village level is required as it forms the lowest unit

of administration and development xn India.

Page 64: AQUIFER SYSTEM AND GROUNDWATER POTENTIAL OF KARWAN … · Table 1. Result of Statistical analysis of annual rainfall at Aligarh, Tehsil Kol, Distt. Aligarh. Table 2. Result of drought

The study area has no canal except a Kol distributary

which traverse a small portion in the North East of the

study is^rea.

GROUNDWATER RECHARGE

The groundwater recharge p^irameter forms an important

element of groundwater resource evaluation. It is a product

not only of hydrometeorologic and hydrologic process taking

place on the surface, but also of complex sub-surface

lithologic characterstics and changing situa\tions imposed by

groundv^ater recharge, movement and discharge.

The major sources of groundwater recharge in the axrea

&ri5 as follows:

Recharge through rainfall.

Recharge through irrigation return flow.

Filecharge through distributory.

There are various methods to estimate ground waiter

recharge, two of them a.re as under­

water level fluctuation -- specific yield method.

Water be*lanee method .

Here water level fluctuation - specific yield method

has been adopted for the evaluation of groundwater recharge.

GROUNDWATER RECHARGE BY SPECIFIC YIELD METHOD;

Total arBB. - 152 sq. km

Average fluctuation in water level over 10 yrs = 0.94 m period (1980 -• 89)

T he qua 1 i ty of g rou.nd wa. tBr is as impor tan t as i ts

quantity. Water being univer-sal solvent its purity can not

remain intact. The pollution of grounwater can impair its use

and can create ha;:ards to public health through toxicity or

the spre^ad o-f diseases.

In order to study the quality of graundw£*ter in

Aligarh city water samples from groundwater structure were

collected. In all 29 samples were collected and analysed, of

which 23 samples were analysed for major ions and 6 for trace

element s t u d i e s.

Method of Sampling

The samples for partial chemical analysis were

collected in well cleaned one litre capacity double stoppered

polythene bottles. The bottles after collection of samples

were i n s t a n 11y c a p ped an d sea1ed w i t h wa K i n t he f i e1d.

For the trace element studies, water samples were

collected in one litre capacity bottles and duly treated with

5 ml of 6N.HNG;;;, capped and sealed on the site as above.

Analytical Procedure

The samples for detailed chemical analysis (major

and trace) were analysed in the Geochemical Laboratory of the

C:)eology Department, Aligarh Muslim University, Aligarh, as

per standard methods recommt^nded by APHA (1975). The Samples

were analysed for major elements like Na, K, Ca, Mg, CI, CQ-T ,

HCG-T and SO^. The chlorides, Carbonates and Bicarbonates were

analysed by volumetric method where? ais the concentration of

other major elements like Na, K, Ca and Mg were determined by

Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer. The determination of

trace elements like Fe, Cu, Zrij, Mil, Ni, Co, Pb, Cd, was

carried out in the same laboratory with the help o-f Atomic

Absorption Spectrophotometer.

Series of blank samples were? prepared -for the

Spectrophotometric analysis of each element in order to

Hydrogen Ion Concentration (pH)

In cjeneral the groundwater of the area is

moderately alkaline in reaction with the pH values varying

from 7»1 to 8.6. The highest va\lu€5 8.6 of pH was recorded

in the wi .ter sample of Sarai Rahman.

Electrical Conductivity (micromhos/Cm at 25°C)

Electrical conductivity is the measure of the

mineralisation and is indicative of the salinity of

groundwater. The specific conductivity valuers in the? areax

varies between 434 to 1375 microhoms/Cm at 25*'''c. The sample

MAJOR ELEMENTS

Carbonates!

The concentration of carbonate ranges between nil

to 29 ppm only- The highest value of carbonate i.e, 29 ppm

is rejcorded at Diwani Kaxcheri.

Bicarbonates:

The bi c j.r b on a te?s concentration in groundwater

depend upon the partial pressure of the Cartaondioxide in

ppm to 885 ppm. The highest value (E)S5 ppm) is recorded in

the sample of Barai Subhangarhi only.

Chlorides;

Indian Council of Medical Research (1975) while

recommending 250 ppm as desirable limit of chloride in

potable water, has also laid down 1000 ppm as maKimum

permissible limit where no other alternative source is

available.

The concentratoin of chloride varies from 13 ppm to

152 ppm. The values indicate that the groundwater in the

B.rfsa. is suitable for irriqcition and drinking purposes,, as

per IChR (1975). The chloride map has also been prepatred

(Plate XXI) to show the chloride distribution of the

grounwater in the study area.

Sulphate;

The sulphatoi> concentration has been found to vary

from 25ppm.to 228ppm, The highest concentration was found in

water sampler of Mir:-:apur Siya., So, the sulphate; concentration

was found well within the limit of 250ppm= Low concentration

of sulphate may be because of less o;;idation of sulphide to

sulphate.

Sodium:

The concentration of sodium ranges between 22ppm to

245ppm. "I"hie h ig hes t c oncen t ra t i on i . e, 245ppm wai3 recorded in

Calcium;

It is a common constituent of groundwatc?r. The

dissolved CO-, generally controls the Ca~ion concentration in

natural water (Psthak^1980). Calcium is also an essential

element, and human body reguires 0.7 to 2.0 gm per day. The

concentration of cailcium ranges between 23ppm and 170 ppm.

Magnesium;

It is one of the constituents responsible) for

hardness of water, while low concentrations ana not harmful,

higher concentrations are luKative,, The concentration of

Magnesium varies from 16ppm to 29ppm. The highest

Deficiencies of 2!0-24 elements in animal and man

(Frzedin, 1972 ) and 13 to 17 elements in plants have been

recongnised (Epsteinf 1965). It must, be stated that it is

not the overall concentration of an element that is

importcint, but the species of metal present in water that is

available to an organism or plant that must be taken into

concentration,, The present study depicts; the total

concentration of trace elements present in groundwater of the

area.,

Traice elements like Fe, Cu, Zn, Mn, Ni,, Co, Pbn Cd, and

Rb were determined. The results of the analytical data show a

higher concentration of to;;ic heavy metals in shallow

GROUNDWATER QUALITY CRITERIA

The term quality ats applied to water embr-aces the

combined physical, chemical and biological characteristics

and is a deminent fe^ctor in determining the adequacy of any

supply to satisfy the requirements of various water uses.

The interpretation of chemical analysis is highly

subjective? matter, and is not possible to have a single

criterion that can have universal application. This is

because the water quality of an area should satisfy the

requirements set for the specific uses, namely domestic,

irrigational and industrial uses. However, keeping with this

object in veiw following criteria has been adopted for the

interpretation of the results. The main classes of uses are

as follows ;

WATER QUALITY FOR DOMESTIC USES

Various organisations all over the world, viz., USPHA

(1962), MHO (1975, 1984) and Indian Council of Medical

Research (1975) haxve laid down certain guidelines for

evaluation of water quality for domestic supplies. The

primary aim of these guidelines is the protection of public

health.

Accordingly, the concentration of various major and

trace elements determined in the water samples of the study

3.reB. B.re depicted in Table No. ( 4 ).

The table shows that the concentration of pH, Ca, Mg

auid CI and total hairdne^ss B.r& well within the permissible?

limits as recommended by HHO and INCR. The groundwater is

safe for drinking purpose, on the other hand concentration of

some trace eleme?nts like?, Fe, Mn, Cd and Pb Bre found higher

than thei r s tandard 1im i ts. These t race e1emen ts spec ia 11y Cd

and Pb have adverse effects on human health. It has been

studied by many workers (Craun and WcCade, 1975f Neri

et.al.f 1975 ; and Olnin, 1977). A significaint positive

correlation between mortality from various types of c.B.v\c.Gr

cind concentraition of trace elements in water supplies has

also been described (Berg and Btirbank, 1972).

Salinity and Sodium Hazards;

Irrigation water is one of the maj or cQntributors of

soluble salts to the soil in addition to those already

present. Water present in the soil is mainly removed by

evaporation and transpiration, and these are the two process

which altimately control the ds^gree o-f osmotic stress to

which plant will be exposed » In the shallow water table

area wftere g round is sa 1 ine, the evapotr£inspi ration procE;SS

also creates a suction force that may produce 3.n appreciable

upward flow of waiter and salts to the root zone by which

many types of soi 1 s become sa 1 inize(d and the water soil

sa 1 ini.ty becmes; so high a.s to retard the ge;rmination of seed

In place of rigid limits of salinity, for irrigation

water, water quality is expressed by classes of relative

suitability (Wilco;;, 1955). WilcoK prepared a. classification

6:

The study areas i.e., Aligarh city spreads over an area

of 152 Sq. Km, forms a part of Central Ganga basin. Regarding

the origin of the Ganga basin there are many shades of

opinion, it was interpreted to be a foredeep; or a rift

valley which was latter filled up with alluviam of the

thickness 4.5 Km to 6 Km. A third view regards it a sagging

in the crust, while the fourth more accepted view presents it

as a buckling down in the crust. According to a recent view,

it is thought to be a resultant of phenomenal sagging of the

Northern platform of the Bundelkhand shield following the

main Himalayan episode. Another view regards the Indo-

Gangetic plain, a peripheral foreland basin formed as a

result of continent-continent collission between Indian and

Asian Plates.

The wells drilled by O.N.G.C. and C.G.W.B in the Ganga

basin depict the sub-surface topography, it is found that the

Sub-surface topography beneath the Quaternary alluviam,

consist of alternate spurs and depressions. The northern

fringe of the peninsula is intact close to the right bank of

the Ganga, but Ganga itself flows presently along the fault

plane, the northern side of which is a downthrown side.

Accordingly the thickness of the alluvium increases due north

which attains its maximum close to the foothill. Quarternary

sediments, comprising clay and sands of various grades in

multiple alternation. were deposited on the eroded and

upturned surface of upper Vindhyan rocks leading to the

present configuration of the Ganga basin.

Hydrogeologically speaking, there occurs three to four

tier aquifer system down to the depth of 340 m.b.g.l. The

aquifer material consists of fine through medium to coarse

sand of varying shades. The nature is predominantly

micaceous. The thickness of the aquifer varies from 3 meters

to 28 meters.

The granular zones generally comprise 50% of the total

lithounits encountered. The discharge of the shallow

tubewells varies from 30 to 50 ra /hr with a nominal drawdown

of 3 to 4.5 meters. The discharge of heavy duty tubewells

varies from 50 to 227 m /hr with a drawdown varying from 2 to

11.7 meters. The groundwater of the area accurs in pheratic

condition in shallow aquifer and semi-confined to cofined

conditions in the deeper aquifers.

The pre-monsoon depth to water level ranges between

8.70 to 15 m.b.g.l. and in the post-monsoon period it ranges

between 8.06 to 14.05 m. b.g.l. In general water level

fluctuation is recorded between 0.4 to 0.6ra. Regional flow of

groundwater is from NW to SE with little variation at places

caused by local factors.

A perusal of the water table contour map shows two

groundwater troughs have formed in the Western and south­

eastern parts of the area, which is due to the excesive

withdrawal from shallow aquifers, moreover this excessive

withdrawal has generated declining trend of water table. Some

provision for recharge of the depleting aquifers should be

made. A canal may be passed through the area in order to

Page 97: AQUIFER SYSTEM AND GROUNDWATER POTENTIAL OF KARWAN … · Table 1. Result of Statistical analysis of annual rainfall at Aligarh, Tehsil Kol, Distt. Aligarh. Table 2. Result of drought

63

arrest the declining trend of the water level in the area.

Sand analysis was done to delineate the

hydrodynamic condition of the aquifer material. The study

revealed that the sand size ranges between meduim to fine,

the porosity of upper aquifer is higher than the deeper one

and the hydraulic conductivity decreases with depth.

Water balance studies show that the net recharge is

26.82 MCM and the net draft is 18.65 MCM, leaving a balance

of 8.17 MCM as utilizable groundwater resource potential. As

per NABARD'S norm the status of groundwater development is

69.53% and accordingly, the area falls under the 'Grey'

category.

In view of the 69.53% groundwater development,

cautious groundwater development is required to avoid any

scarcity of the groundwater in the area. Further it is

suggested to develop the deep aquifers rather than the top

aquifers which are already under great strain.

In groundwater resource evaluation, the quality is as

important as the quantity. Qualitatively the groundwater of

the area is moderately alkaline in reaction, hard and

slightly mineralised, and is suitable for irrigational and

industrial purposes. The shallow aquifers being polluted with

heavy toxic metals (Fe,Pb,Mn,Cd,) and the metals are in

higher concentration than the permissible limits, may not be

safe for drinking puposes. For the safe drinking water,

groundwater from the deeper aquifers should be supplied, duly

disinfected at the pumping site itself, for the population in

Page 98: AQUIFER SYSTEM AND GROUNDWATER POTENTIAL OF KARWAN … · Table 1. Result of Statistical analysis of annual rainfall at Aligarh, Tehsil Kol, Distt. Aligarh. Table 2. Result of drought

64

the area.

In the years to come when, the area will reach its

optirauin development, sometimes in the 21st century, the major

problem will be that of artificial recharge to augment the

reservoir potential of the depleting aquifers in Karwan-

Sengar Doab. It is necessary, therefore, to continue

monitoring of water level for the proper understanding of the

groundwater behaviour vis-a-vis the pace of development of

groundwater in the area and continue searching various

alternatives for scientifically planned water management

programme.
