Problem
The natural drainage streams around the park have been disrupted by surrounding construction, significantly reducing the flow of runoff into the area. As a result, the park is missing the opportunity to recharge approximately 54.5 crore litres of water annually through soil percolation. Currently, there are no recharge structures within or around the park, and recent concretization of an unpaved road (near Gate 2) has further limited infiltration. Additionally, nearby vacant lands hold potential for groundwater conservation if landowners and stakeholders are engaged. To ensure long-term success, proper maintenance and deployment of caretakers will be essential after implementing conservation measures.
Solution
The proposed solution involves constructing three injection bore wells, each 45–50 meters deep, to recharge the aquifer using 0.32 crore litres of roof runoff from adjacent buildings and 0.15 crore litres of surface runoff from the park annually. These bore wells will be installed at three of the five identified recharge points, selected based on site feasibility. Existing tanks within the Techno Park premises will collect and direct runoff to the bore wells for percolation. Additionally, a nearby building under construction near Gate 2 offers an opportunity to integrate roof water and STP effluent diversion into the recharge system through plumbing design, requiring engagement and collaboration with the building owners to include them as stakeholders.
