monitored which may be due to largest industrial area at Nagpur city.The observed average

concentration of CO for all monitoring stations varies from 0.9 to 2.1 mg/m3.

� Heavy Metals in Suspended Particular Matter: Air born particles are important carriers of metals.

Some of which possess toxic properties. The concentration and size distributions of trace metals are

governed by the nature of emission to the atmosphere, as well as rates of wet and dry deposition,

cloud processing, and exchange of air between the boundary layer and the free atmosphere, and

chemical transformation.

2. Drinking (Tap) Water Quality

• Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) is supplying drinking water through its distribution

system. As a part of health concern, water quality monitoring was carried out at the end of

the distribution point i.e. ESR (Elevated Storage Reservoir)

• Water samples were collected from 17 locations from different part of the city and analyzed

for drinking water parameters as per IS 10500:2012.The quality of drinking water at the

consumer end w.r.t. physico-chemical and bacteriological report

Conclusion :

• From the physico-chemical and bacteriological characteristics of drinking water quality of entire

Nagpur city are safe for drinking. Its indicating that local body is very much concern about

awareness and water quality. Further NMC maintaining properly all water distribution system.

• Furthermore, Daily 3000 tap water samples were collected from all ten zones of Nagpur city for

residual chlorine content and it is found that residual chlorine more than 0.2 ppm is presented in

more than 97% samples .

• Total 600 samples were collected from each zone and analyzed for presence of total coliform and

thermo tolerant species

3. Groundwater Quality

• As per the sources data by Central Groundwater Board (CGWB), Nagpur, it is estimated

that potential of groundwater availability in Nagpur to be above 25 mcm per year.

• The depth of groundwater table varies from 1.65-1.95 m in most of the central part of the

city and extends up to 16 m in the peripheral areas

• With the increased population growth and developmental activities the demand of water

supply will increase tremendously thereby need to tap the groundwater source for potable

or non-potable usage. For above facts and uses of ground, it is essential to assess the

ground water quality for its suitability for different usages.

• Ground water samples were collected during summer 2014 from Nagpur city [19 samples]

and analyzed for selected environmental parameters viz Physical, Chemical and

bacteriological. Ground water quality characteristics.

CONCLUSION

1. DISSOLVED OXYGEN : All the ground water samples have DO as range of 5.2 to 6.4 mg/l.

Low DO value is quite natural for ground waters, which are not in much exposure with air

environment.

2. CHEMICAL OXYGEN DEMAND (COD): All water samples are indicating very low organic

pollution load in terms of COD and all COD values are within the prescribed limit (< 250.0 mg/l)

as in IS 2490:1982.

3. DISSOLVED SOLIDS: All 19 ground water samples have Dissolved Solids ranges from 230.0

918.0 mg/l respectively, which are well below prescribed limit of 2000 mg/l as given in IS

10500:2012.

4. FLUORIDES : All 19 ground water samples have fluoride content ranges from 0.19 to 1.05mg/l4. FLUORIDES : All 19 ground water samples have fluoride content ranges from 0.19 to 1.05mg/l

respectively which are lower than desirable limit of 1.0 mg/l as given in IS 10500:2012

5. NITRATE: All 19 ground water samples have nitrate concentration ranges from 1.0 to 19.4 mg/l

respectively, and much below the desirable limit of 45 mg/l.

6. Total Coliform : All ground water samples 10) have the load of total coliform and Faceal coliform

0.0 to 17.0 MPN/100ml and 0.0 to 14.0 MPN/100ml.

7. Oil and Grease:. All 19 ground water samples have O & G content is below detectable limit

respectively.

8. Overall quality of water samples are showing that the water sources of the area are not

polluted. Some water samples getting contamination from surface run-off or domestic uses.

The coliforms values are exception otherwise all the water samples are indicating its

characteristics within limit as given in relevant Indian Standards. Water levels – Water

sources in the area are shallow in nature

4. Lake Water Quality

1. Nagpur city is covered with natural and

manmade lakes. The significant lakes are

Futala, Ambazari, Sonegaon, Gandhi Sagar,

Sakkardara, Naik and Lendi Talav.

2. These lakes are being used for

anthropogenic and recreational purposes

3. On the bank of these lakes, some of the

slums are located, which are using lake

water for washing, bathing and domestic

activities.

4. NMC has taken steps to protect these lakes

Conclusion :i. It was observed that these lakes are

exerting organic load in the form of

BOD and COD due to manmade

activities.

ii. The mineral contents are found to be

high and increased every year with

respect to dissolved solids, sulphates,

hardness and chloride.

iii. Nutrient load in terms of nitrate and4. NMC has taken steps to protect these lakes

for being polluted due to local activities.

5. Every year samples were collected from all

these lakes and analyzed for physico-

chemical parameters to know the water

quality status of these lakes.

iii. Nutrient load in terms of nitrate and

phosphate are found to be increased

except Ambazari, Futala, Sukkrawari and

Sakkardhara and therefore these are on

the verge of eutrophication.

iv. The lakes are periodically deterioting

and need attention.

v. The heavy metals in some of the lakes

are also found to be exceeded the

permissible limits of drinking water.

Lake water Quality Report

Surface Water Resources at Nagpur

• There are mainly two surface water body namely

Nag River and Pilli River flowing through the city

areas.

• The Nag River flows through the major part of the

city carrying mostly sewage generated from that

particular areas.

• The river Pilli passing through mostly outskirts

of city also carrying domestic sewage generated

from the locality besides the river.

• The rivers jointly meet Kanhan river and

ultimately in the Gossikhurd reservoi.Drainage Map of Waste water

Observations of Surface Water Drains

� Due to discharge of sewage into these drains,

converted in waste carrying streams only with no

further assimilation potential

� With uncontrolled discharge of solid and semi-

solid waste into these drains, heavy deposits of

sludge (mostly organics) at the bottom restricting

the flow of the drains.

� The unprotected (embankment) edges of the

drains (both sides) creates lot of siltation problem

and produce uncertainty to the local habitation

residing on the bank of these drains.

Observation :1. The rivers flowing through the city covers the 16

kms stretch from its origin to discharge into the

Kanhan at Saongi in eastern part of the Nagpur

district.

2. Sample were collected along the stretch of the

river and analyzed for different parameters to

characterize the present status of rivers.

Solid Waste Management

� Solid waste handling is a major problem for most of the local governmental

agencies which requires drastic measures to be taken up.

� Three main aspects are involved in solid waste

i. increase in quantity of the waste generation by urban residents;

ii. regular change in the quality of waste generated and

iii. the disposal method of waste collected by land-fill and incineration etc.

� Solid waste generation is based on the changing and adopted life style of

community) (rich, medium and low income group).

� Indian cities are generating more solid wastes based on their improved livelihood.� Indian cities are generating more solid wastes based on their improved livelihood.

Category of Solid Waste Generation

Solid waste can be categorized into different types depending on their sources:

� Household waste is generally classified as municipal waste

� Industrial waste as hazardous waste

� Biomedical waste or hospital waste as infections waste

� Slaughter House waste

1. Municipal Solid Waste

• Municipal solid waste generation mostly

comprising of household waste (hotels,

restaurants, mangal karlayas, lawns etc.)

construction and demolition debris (excavated

materials, iron, building construction materials),

sanitation residue and waste from streets,

hospitals, slaughter houses, market areas

(Agriculture Waste).

• This is generated mainly from residential and

commercial complexes.

NMC Operational System

• The Solid Waste activity is managed and operated

by Health Department.

• The work of collection and disposal is managed

by a

• Senior Sanitary Inspectors and Sanitary

Inspectors (Total 56) , 129 Jamdars supervise , the

work of 7261 sanitary workers.

• The management of solid waste involves four

steps. These are:

1. AIR ENVIRONMENT

� The qualitative and quantitative assessment of the different parts of the study

area (Nagpur) indicated that the quantum of air pollution is different and

hence it is utmost important that proper attention should be given in

controlling and minimizing those activities which causes this pollution.

� There should be adequate control norms for emissions into air which should

be observed religiously. So, it is indeed necessary to focus and delineate our

priorities towards minimizing the air pollution load.priorities towards minimizing the air pollution load.

� Besides, a carefully drafted policy considering different air pollution

dynamics of different areas i.e. Residential, Commercial and Industrial for

reduce air pollution .

� The air pollution problem can be minimized at the source by making use of

the following measures

i. Substitution of the raw materials.

ii. Modification in the process.

iii. Alterations in the particular equipment or component.

iv. Removal of pollutants at the source.

Recommendations for Air Environment

� Background stations must be included in the network to assess the

anthropogenic impact

� Analytical quality control exercises may be carried out regularly to

analyze and to improve the quality of data.

� A comprehensive urban air quality management strategy should be

formulated and action plan should be regularly reviewed keeping into

view of the results of implementation.

� Studies on inventory of air polluting sources and source

apportionment may be undertaken to improve the action plan to

control air pollution.

� Epidemiological studies should be undertaken to develop dose-

response relationships.

� Monitoring of hazardous air pollutants may be undertaken as they are

well known to have marked effect on human health and environment.

2. NOISE ENVIRONMENT

� Regular monitoring of noise levels in

different parts of the city areas

(commercial, industrial and sensitive

zone).

� Transportation activities need to be routed

during day and night time mostly for the

heavy vehicles entering into the city.

� Aggravation of the vehicular activities

near the sensitive and residential areas be

restricted to avoid any health problem

� There is possibility of increasing noise level

during the festival periods because of the

loudspeakers and the speeches, so

restrictions on such activities be imposed

during night time (time schedule for

permission of such activities).

� Proper monitoring of noise generating

vehicles through RTO authorities/ traffic

police and impose of penalty for such

vehiclesrestricted to avoid any health problem

to the residing community.

Awareness Generation:

� Display of existing noise levels on

squares, residential and sensitive areas and

awareness generation activities to be

undertaken through media.

� Display of ill effect of noise levels on

human through electronic media on the

squares to appraise the people and

measures to be taken..

vehicles

� Restrictions on unnecessary honking of

horns near the signals in calm zones or

silence zones.

Responsibility:

� NMC (Traffic Department)

� NMC (Health Department)

� NMC (Environment Department)

� RTO

3. WATER ENVIRONMENT

Surface water {Raw and Tap Water}

� Regular monitoring (Season wise) both physico-chemically and

bacteriologically be carried out through MPCB in association with the

public health department (Raw water of main sources, ESRs, MBRs,

Treated Water and tap water etc.).

� Disinfection of water with optimized chlorine dosage shall be done

continuously at the water treatment plants and also in the ESRs.

� Regular monitoring of distribution system (operation & maintenance)Responsibility :� NMC (Water Works� Regular monitoring of distribution system (operation & maintenance)

should be carried out properly and regular monitoring of leakages be

done for immediate rectification.

� Cleaning of ESRs be carried out regularly twice in year to avoid any

algal growth and development of bacterial contamination.

� Performance evaluation of all the units of Water treatment Plants

should be carried out to check its efficiency and effectively as per the

design.

� Residual chlorine of 0.2 ppm should be maintained at the tail ends.

2.Lake Water• Proper cleaning and maintenance of the area

near the vicinity of the lake.

• Regular monitoring of lake water

quality

especially before and after festival periods

like

Ganesha and Durga Festival.

• Installation of proper sanitation and

hygienic facilities for the people to avoid

river pollution.

• Cleaning of road side storm water drainage

system to avoid over flow.

• Restriction on bathing and washing

activities around the lakes and throwing of

waste materials. This is necessary to avoid

addition of nutrient load within the lake

which supports the photosynthetic activities

and is responsible for the eutrophication of

the lake.

• Restrictions on immersion of idols in lakes

should be strictly practiced.

• Provision for collection centers/space to besystem to avoid over flow.

• Entrapping the discharge points of the

sewage into the lakes, if any.

• Restriction on discharge of domestic waste

from nearby habitation.

• Restriction on open defecation on the bank

of the lake.

• Provision of public toilet with sufficient

seats (as per the population of slum and

standard norms) is a must for slum residing

near lakeside with proper O&M facility

• Provision for collection centers/space to be

provided for the collection of flowers,

garlands before the immersion of idols in

the water body.

• Construction of artificial pond is

recommended for idol immersion activity.

Every year the artificial pond should be

cleaned and the waste should be disposed

off scientifically to avoid further pollution.

.

• The ground water sources (dug well/bore wells/hand pumps)

needs to be checked and disinfected prior to drinking.

• Wherever there are public wells disinfection should be done

on regular basis and checked periodically for contamination

through bacterial population.

• Maintenance of hygienic conditions around the tube wells/

dug wells/ hand pumps be practiced to avoid groundwater

contamination through washing/bathing etc. specially in the

slum areas.

• Regular monitoring of ground water quality with respect to

physico-chemical & bacteriology should be done. If the

Environment Management Plan for solid waste Nirmalaya Management:

• NMC should plan for the collection of

Nirmalayas from the Ganesh & Durga

Pandols in the city.

• The NMC should Chalkout effective

awareness programmes in

consultation with local NGOs and

social organization well ahead of the

start of these festivals and• Implementation of Recycling

programme.

• Training for NMC staff regarding solid

waste management.

• Development of an intensive public

education programme.

• Association of stake holders for

consultation

• Spread the message among the

common masses of the effects of

throwing of Nirmalayas into the lake

water body.

• Deploy special vehicles for collection

of the Nirmalaya..

• Encourage the organisors as well as

common people for the collection of

Nirmalayas and give incentives&

rewards

• Finally the vermicomposting of the

Nirmalayas should be practiced

Slaughter House Waste Management

• Replacement of the Existing Slaughter

Houses: The existing slaughter houses

(authorized and unauthorized) are to be

replaced in a suitably identified site, away

from the community places, mostly outskirt

of the city area creating slaughtering

facilities and disposal network.

• Solid waste generated from the slaughter

houses can be utilized by converting to bone

meal and meat meal which are the foods for

• Hygienic condition should be maintained

around the slaughter houses.

• Illegal slaughter houses should be

removed immediately and action needs

to be taken against them.

• In different developing areas provision

should be made to establish a proper

slaughter house with waste management

facility. This will ensure cleanliness in

the area.meal and meat meal which are the foods for

fish and animals.

• Co-composting of slaughter house waste can

be done with adjustment of carbon to

nitrogen ratio.

• The compost can be applied for agriculture

purpose after assessing the quality of the

compost as per guidelines/standards

specified in the MSW rules.

• Scientific treatment of the slaughter house

• Waste to energy project to be explore

Waste from Health Care Facility (Biomedical Waste)

• It should be ensured that the hospitals shall manage & treat

the biomedical waste as per the prescribed norms.

• It is always recommended that there should be a common

waster treatment facility existing on the outskirts of the city

limits. Individual treatment should be avoided so as to check

the air pollution level within the city.

• Hence, effort to register all the city hospitals should be made

for the common treatment & disposal of the biomedical

waste.
