Abstract

This program aims at maintaining a proper hydrological balance in Vanur aquifer, by recharging groundwater through artificial methods. The project will be implemented in Vanur Taluk, where the groundwater resources are seriously depleting and threatened by sea water intrusion. The program targets the Vanur sandstone coastal aquifer, which is the main aquifer of the region and source of irrigation for the agriculture of Vanur block. Moreover, this aquifer is also supplying the city of Tindivanam.
