INTRODUCTION

1.1 GENERAL INFORMATION

This work is intended for providing clear water pumping main in Aryanadu and
Uzhamalakkal Grama Panchayath in Thiruvananthapuram District.

GEOGRAPHICAL FEATURES
The project area comprises of Aryanadu and Uzhamalakkal Grama Panchayath. The
scheme area is in Nedumangadu Taluk of Thiruvananthapuram district.The project is
mainly intended to give uninterrupted water supply to Aryanadu and Uzhamalakkal
Grama Panchayath, since the existing water supply facilities in Aryanadu and
Uzhamalakkal Grama Panchayath is inadequate. The topography of the project area is
undulating/sloping.

The Panchayath is spread along the sides of Western ghats. The majority of the people
here are farmers. The total area of the Aryanadu Grama Panchayath is 104.92 sq.km and
the Uzhamalakkal Grama Panchayath is 18.74 sq km respectively. The population of the
Aryanadu Grama panchayath is 33396 as per 2011 census. There are 18 wards in this
Panchayath. The population of the Uzhamalakkal Grama panchayath is 21472 as per 2011
census. There are 15 wards in this Panchayath.The boundaries of these Panchayaths share
with Nedumaagadu Muncipality,Aruvikkara Grama Panchayath,Vellanadu Grama
Panchayath,Kuttichal Grama Panchayath and Kattakkada Taluk. Karamana River and
Nedumangad Shorlacode road passing through these Panchayaths

METHOD OF EXTRACTION AND SUPPLY OF TREATED WATER

The existing Water Supply are not sufficient to meet the present water demand in
the project area. There is acute scarcity of drinking water in the elevated places. So In
order to supply sufficient safe drinking water to the villages, the comprehensive
scheme is required to be implemented with proper treatment methods and hence
the present proposal The source of the entire scheme is Karamana River.
