 The bore well in the colony has saline water  There is a need for installation of a solar pump on the larger tank in order to ensure constant supply during power cuts  The condition of taps is poor resulting in high levels of water wastage  The community has proposed that the smaller bore well which is 130 ft deep and under repair could be used for installation of a possible purification system.

 For water management, It is best to improve on what they already have, rather than implement a whole new plan, which would cost a lot more, and also take a lot more time to complete.  Fix up the non-working tank, well, and also the pump, so that more water can be attained for the villagers.  Filter for underground rainwater tank.

 Saline water  Bacteria  Minerals  Sedimentation

 Chlorination  Carbon Filter  Reverse Osmosis

 Hugely reduces salinity and bacteria infection in water  Easily filtrated out of water in case of too much chlorine

 Removes chlorine, sediment, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from water.  Ineffective at removing minerals, salts, and dissolved inorganic compounds.

 Removes large molecules and ions  Removes large dirt particles and impurities

 As there is two water tanks that are in operation that are supplied from the same bore water source  There is a tank on the eastern side of the town that is out of use along with the water suppling it

 A tank can be made with a frame and metal shell  With polystyrene insulation  Cost effective  Easily acquired  Stable supports

 Capacity: 1800 or 2000 L  Dimensions: 1200x2000x700 or 825

 Great for limited spaces  Easy to install  Productive use of the flooding water  Water stays cooler due to no direct sunlight  Out of sight  Produced from strong, robust materials
