The Government of Tamil Nadu vide G.O No. 50/dated 1-6-2012 has directed to take up the investigation works of this Scheme which was announced in the floor of the Assembly during 2012.
Detailed Project Report has been Administratively sanctioned for Rs 130.46/- Crore to install and Rs 3.91/-to maintain annually vide G.O.(MS) No 156/ Dated 19.10.2013.
Prefatory :
The Project area covers 7 Town Panchayats namely Thondamuthur, Vedapatty, Dhaliyur, Perur, Thenkarai, Pooluvapatti and Alandurai and 134 rural habitations in 10 Village Panchayats namely Devarayapuram, Zakirnaikenpalayam, Vellimalai pattinam, Narasipuram, Thennamanallur, Ikkaraiboluvampatty, Maduvarayapuram, Madampatti, Theethipalayam and Perurchettipalayam of Thondamuthur Union of Coimbatore District. The beneficiaries are located on either sides of the State Highways Road from Coimbatore to Siruvani .The main occupation of the people in these area is agriculture. The Panchayats are located at about 10-25 km. radius of Coimbatore City.
Existing Water Supply Arrangements:
Town Panchayats
All the 7 Town Panchayats under the scope of this Scheme are the way side beneficiaries of the existing Water Supply Augmentation Scheme to Coimbatore Corporation with Siruvani Reservoir as Source. The present level of service of the Town Panchayats are varying from 12-16lpcd.
Village Panchayats
The coverage of river source from the Water Supply Augmentation Scheme to Coimbatore Corporation with Siruvani Reservoir as Source in the Village Panchayats in Thondamuthur Union varies from 6 to 19 lpcd.
Necessity of the Scheme :
The present supply of water from Siruvani WSS and local sources in the Town Panchayats and 134 rural habitations is not adequate to meet the present and future demands. During summer, due to poor storage level in Siruvani Dam, the supply from this source is totally affected every year. During such adverse seasons, it is possible to supply only 15 lpcd from the ground water sources in the area. Hence it is necessarily required to augment the source of water supply to provide the required quantity of water throughout the year. It is not possible to draw additional quantity from Siruvani source. Hence it is required to formulate a new combined water supply scheme from and alternate perennial source.
Population Projection:
The population projection for the 7 Town Panchayats and Rural habitations the Population Projection are as below :
Town Panchayat | Population | |||
---|---|---|---|---|
Census 2011 | Base Year 2014 | Intermediate Stage 2029 | Ultimate Stage 2044 | |
Thondamuthur | 10420 | 10800 | 12900 | 15300 |

TOTAL | 137191 | 144263 | 163118 | 182964 |
Demand :
Since UGSS will be implemented soon to all the Town Panchayats per capita supply of 90 lpcd has been adopted for all the 7 Town Panchayats.
Out of the 10 Village Panchayats under the scope of this scheme, Perurchettipalayam Village Panchayat is located adjacent to Coimbatore Corporation. Also most of the hamlets are urban in nature due to settlement of people from the Corporation area resulting in rapid development of new colonies. Hence pro-rata supply has been increased one level up from 40 lpcd to 70 lpcd for arriving the demand for this Village Panchayat alone. For the remaining 9 Village Panchayats 40 lpcd as per rural norms has been adopted.
The net demand for the proposed Scheme has been arrived after deducting the existing quantity supplied from Siruvani WSS. There are a number of educational and other popular institutions in the project area. Hence provision of 10% of the domestic demand has been given towards commercial requirement. The proposed perennial source River Bhavani is located at about 40 Km from the Project area. Considering the large network of piping system 10% of the total demand has been provided towards transmission loss. Raw water quantity has been arrived including provision of 5% towards water required for back washing and other losses in treatment plant.
