    1.Introduction

    Access towater and sanitation services inurban India iswidespread,but little isknown

    about the quality and level of service, and coverage of the poor households. For new

    investments in the sector tobe effective, it is important to assess theperformance of the

    existingsystemandensureitssustainabilityandreachforthepoorandunserved.

    CentreforEnvironmentalPlanningandTechnology(CEPT)Universityhasreceivedamajor

    grant from the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation for developing and implementing a

    performanceassessmentsystemforurbanwaterandsanitationinGujaratandMaharashtra.

    Theaimofthisresearchprogrammeistodevelopbetterinformationonwaterandsanitation

    performance and to ensure its useby the cities for extending services to all, strive for

    financialviabilityandimprovereliabilityandqualityofservices.

    This research shall focus on the use of these performance indicators andbenchmarks to

    facilitateconsistentreporting,monitoring,planning,budgetingand investing inwaterand

    sanitationservicesin400urbanareasofGujaratandMaharashtrastates.

    2.OverviewofWaterSupplyinKalol

    Kalol is located incentralGujarat,about20kmbyroad from thestatecapitalanddistrict

    headquarter ofGandhinagar, and about 30 km fromAhmedabad, in thewesternpart of

    India. It has a population of approximately 150,000 (111,700 as per 2001 census) and is

    classifiedasAClassmunicipalitywithapopulationofmorethan1lakh.

    Whilethemajorityofthepopulationisdependentonfarmingandtradingoffarmproduce,

    rapidindustrialisationinGujarathasledtothesettingupofvariousmediumandlargescale

    industries in the fertiliser, engineering and pharmaceutical sectors, providing ample

    employmentopportunitiesto the localpopulation.Thishasalso led torapidurbanisation,

    migrationfromruralareasandriseinpopulationinandaroundthecityofKalol,whichis

    destined tobecome an important suburb ofAhmedabad. It is also emerging as amajor

    educationcentre.

    Thishasoverburdenedtheexistingwatersupplyandseweragesystem,withthecityalready

    facingproblem

    of

    scarce

    resources

    and

    lack

    of

    proper

    funds

    to

    create

    additional

    facilities;

    insufficientrevenuegenerationdoesnotpermittheassetstobecomeselfsustaining.

    So,inFebruary2010,CEPTawardedthecontractformeasuringandestimatingwaterlosses

    forthecityofKalol.ThiscontractwasforfourtosixweeksandwasundertakenbySapient

    Techno Consultants Pvt Ltd in association with Multi Media Consultants Pvt Ltd. The

    studies commenced on February 1, 2010, and were concluded on March 9, 2010, and

    includedmeasurementofflowatsourcetoestimatethesysteminput,flowmeasurementto

    estimatethesupplyinputtodistributionnetworkandassessthecombinedlossesintreated

    watermains andwaterdistribution stations, and flowmeasurement at enduser location

    (householdconnection)toestimateconsumptionandlossesinsupplynetwork.

    2.1PopulationandWaterDemandofKalolCity

    Asper2001IndiaCensus,KalolCitywasestimatedtohaveapopulationofabout111,700

    (0.112million).AspermunicipalofficialsofKalol,thepresentpopulationisestimatedtobe

    around150,000(0.15million)duetotherapidgrowththatthecityhaswitnessedinthelast

    fewyears.

    Considering135lpcd(litrespercapitaperday)supplyandallowingfor15percentlossesas

    pertheCentralPublicHealthandEnvironmentalEngineeringOrganisation(CPHEEO),the

    householdconsumerdemand isestimated tobeabout15.07MLD (million litresperday),

    requiringproduction

    at

    source

    of

    17.74

    MLD

    (considering

    a

    population

    of

    0.112

    million

    as

    perthe2001Census).

    However,assumingthatthepresentpopulationis0.15million,itwouldrequireabout20.25

    MLD tomeethousehold consumerdemand,whichwould, in turn, requireproduction at

    sourceof23.8MLD.

    3.TheApproachtoWaterAuditinKalol

    The water audit is a well established procedure that identifies productive uses and

    needlesswaste.

    Ifone

    knows

    where

    water

    is

    used

    and

    lost,

    a

    saving

    plan

    of

    water

    can

    be

    planned.

    By

    conductingawateraudit,onecantrackwaterusageandfocusonactivitiesthatcausewater

    lossandwhatthatlosscoststheutility.Identifyingandrepairing leakssavesasubstantial

    quantityofwater,savingexpenditure for theULBandalsoavoiding theneed to look for

    newwatersources tomeet the increase inwaterdemand.Thus,awaterauditcandeliver

    expected results by identifying and fixing water problems and make a water utility

    financiallysustainable.

    The overall goal of a water audit should be to select and implement programmes that

    reduce water losses.By conducting awater audit, an assessment of the capacity of total

    water produced and actual quantity water distributed is worked out. This will help to

    computeestimationofwaterlossesinthesystem.

    In the caseofKalol, the studywas limited to abasicwater audit tomake apreliminary

    assessmentofwaterlossesbymeasuringflowsatsource,intermediatelocationsinnetwork

    aspermissibleandat the consumers end (random sampling).The studywas carriedout

    over a period of onemonth. It focused ondeveloping good estimates of total supply of

    waterandwaterreceivedattheconsumersend.Amoredetailedwaterauditwhichwould

    QuantityMeasurement:

    WTPs as well as measurement of ground water resource supply, that is,

    tube/bore wells. System input (water produced at source) was measured

    usingportableultrasonic flowmeters.The sourcemeasurement comprised

    Step3:EstimatingTreatedWaterConveyanceESR+Direct

    The supply to thedistributionnetwork is through12ESRsand11borewells feeding thenetwork directly. Out of 12 ESRs, 11 are fedbybooster pumps provided in associated

    UGSRs andoneESR isbeing filleddirectlyby aborewell.Thedetails are elaborated in

    Annexures3and4.

    ThesupplytotheESRfromtheUGSRanddirectsupplyfromgroundwatersourceswere

    measuredusingportable flowmeter. Formainwaterworks, thedatawere taken asper

    flowmeter,wasnotpossible.Theflowsweremeasuredindividuallyateachlocation,with

    supplyderivedbyassessingflowandtimeofpumpoperation.

    As canbe observed from the measurements as per Annexure 3, the total treated waterconveyancefromUGSR/directbyborewellwasobservedtobe15.58MLDasagainstsupply

    of17.17MLD(excludingpublicutilitysupply),whichindicatesalossofabout9.26percent

    Step4:MeasurementofConsumption

    As per the details obtained from the ULB, the city has 17,874 authorised water supply

    connections comprising 17,783 inch connections, 58 inch connections and 33 1inch

    5.SuggestionsforReducingNonrevenueWater

    Based on the observationsmadeduring thebasicwater audit and its results, a few key

    suggestions for improved measurement of NRW as well as for its reduction havebeen

    identified.Thefirstsetofsuggestions includesthosethatcanbetaken immediatelyandat

    relatively lower costsby the Kalol municipality. A second set of suggestions for moredetailed studies is also identified for further diagnostic to reduce NRW and improve

    efficiencyinserviceprovision.

    Urgent/immediatestepsforNRWmeasurementandreduction:

    RepairESRsand leakingvalves,and reduceoverflowof tanks:From thestandardIWAwaterbalance (Table8), it isnoticed that3.5percentwater lossesareat the

    WDS level.These aremainlydue to leakage invalves and storage tanks andalso

    their overflow. Field studies and results showed that Kalyanpura, Divada, Sarda

    Nagar, Sardarbag and Navjivan ESRs are leaking heavily and require immediate

    repair.

    Maintenanceofvalvesandfittingssuchastightening loosebolts,positioninggland

    packing,replacingdamagedpartsofvalvesandfittings,etc,areneededtoreduceor

    Identify and regularise illegal connections: Illegal withdrawal of water fromdistributionlinesisoneofthereasonsresultinginloworevennegativepressure.To

    overcome this, Kalol municipality needs to undertake steps to detect and then

    regularise illegal connections to reduce NRW. This will also avoid illegal use of

    boosterpumps

    and

    result

    in

    improved

    performance

    of

    Creating awareness and training the staff is needed for maintaining proper log

    books. It is also necessary to set up a system to report the hours of pumping to

    concernedofficersofthewatersupplydepartment.Thisinformationshouldthenbe

    usedwiththecalibratedpumpdischargefromthebasicwateraudit,tocalculatethe

    water quantity supplied from various sources and WDS. This will help improve
