Panaji: However, cave is not a country emphasized, all water estimates in the state are not available for human consumption.
The country does not have reliable and quality data on the availability of water and river discharge.
Therefore, strict research is needed to assess the actual availability of water in cave from various sources and therefore the Atlas of Water for the state needs to be prepared, declaring the Draft of State Water Policy 2021 prepared for Goa by the Department of Water Resources (WRD).
“The annual availability of per capita (in Goa) is 1.807Cum.
If the amount of renewable water in a country is less than 1,700 cum per person per year the country is said to have experienced water stress.
With this benchmark, the availability of water in the cave seems to be far above water pressure .
However, all water estimates are not available for human consumption, “Document reading 2021.
The state does not even have data about river release.
“In all nine river basins, there are only two river gauges managed by the Central Air Commission, the two sites are in the Mandovi (Mahadayi) basin.
Data on these two sites has been analyzed extensively and the conclusion is that data quality is not satisfactory.
With Thus, there is no reliable and long-term discharge data available on any river in Goa, “record water policy.
Without the required data, Cave Water Resources Planning is a challenge, stating the 2021 policy.
“Data is a fuel that encourages planning machines, and there is currently a lack of data in a cave state, both on the resource side or on the utilization side.
While the data matrix The whole is very large, urgent steps must be taken to improve data collection, “declare a new water policy.
RTDA (real time data acquisition system) and SCADA system (Understanding supervisor and data acquisition) have been installed in several places for hydro-mic data acquisition.
Recommended by the policy that this system must be extended to all water bodies throughout the state.
“Strict hydrological studies must be carried out based on RTDA and other data.
Data mapping must be carried out to prepare water atlas for cave conditions, based on data collected and analyzed,” it is recommended by water policy.
All data collected by cave must also be stored in the appropriate digital format as an independent scholar requires water-related data for their research, stating the policy.
“All data must be freely available without obstacles, on the internet,” declare the policy.
Also, write policies, in Goa, ground water in the area of 430.3 square kilometers, with groundwater resources in storage estimated at 68mcum, has been found poorly found in Goa.
Goa does not have quality data about water availability
