Before you hire a consultant, you should see what you will get. Here are three recent reports of ours, one of each kind. Client names and sensitive figures are left out.
Mine · Comprehensive Hydrogeological Report with numerical modelOpencast coal mine, West Bokaro Coalfield, Jharkhand
195 pages93 figures33 tables10-km study areaSubmitted for NOC renewal
Prepared for a CGWA NOC renewal. It shows how much water the pit draws, year by year, what that does to wells in the villages around, and how the water is reused.
What is inside
- Salient features of the proposal
- Project setting: land use, terrain, drainage, wetlands
- Geology and geophysical (VES) survey
- Aquifers, pumping tests, water levels and long-term trends
- Water quality of wells and nearby water bodies
- Approved mine plan, year 1 to year 5
- Mine seepage and advanced dewatering plan
- Numerical groundwater model: set-up, calibration, predictions
- Mine water management and water balance
- Impacts and mitigation: rainwater harvesting, treatment, reuse
- Summary and conclusions
- Accreditation certificate and references
What you can act on
Seepage into the pit, by depth and year
Drawdown maps for each aquifer layer: at NOC start, NOC end, 5 and 10 years
A resilience scenario showing the benefit of recharge
Water balance: how every litre of pit water is used
Rainwater harvesting structures, built and proposed
Sample pages
Industry · Impact Assessment Report with analytical modelEngineering manufacturing plant, Vadodara, Gujarat
70 pages40 figures13 tablesAlluvium and Deccan Trap
Prepared for a CGWA NOC for an industrial unit. It sets out the groundwater picture around the plant, the effect of its pumping, and its plan to save and reuse water.
What is inside
- Salient features of the proposal
- Location, land use, terrain and drainage
- Geology: alluvium and Deccan Trap
- Water table, pre- and post-monsoon levels, seasonal change
- Long-term hydrographs, including the plant's own piezometer
- Water quality, then and now
- Existing borewells
- Impact on groundwater, surface water and quality
- Analytical groundwater model and its results
- Rainwater harvesting, recharge wells and ponds
- STP, recycling and the water balance
- Summary, conclusions and accreditation
What you can act on
How far the plant's pumping reaches, and how much the water level drops
Water table and depth-to-water maps for the 5 km area
Water quality compared over six years
A water balance showing fresh and recycled water by use
Recharge already built, and what to add
Sample pages
Special study · Seepage investigation and management planIron ore mine, Gadchiroli, Maharashtra
102 pages74 figures35 tables15 VES + 4 ERT lines
A problem-solving study: water was seeping out of mine benches towards the crusher. We traced where it comes from and designed a plan to stop it.
What is inside
- Background, objective and scope
- Location, terrain, drainage and rainfall
- Geology and structure of the lease
- Hydrogeology and water levels
- Geophysics: 15 resistivity soundings and 4 ERT lines
- Integrated interpretation and 3-D fence diagram
- Seepage points mapped on the benches
- Conceptual groundwater model
- Five-tier seepage management plan
- Surface runoff, culverts and settling ponds
- Conclusions and recommendations
What you can act on
Exactly where the water enters, and the path it takes
Risk zones marked on every ERT line
A five-tier plan: cap, drain, intercept, collect, protect, monitor
Locations for garland drains, culverts and 12 settling ponds
Monitoring to check the plan works
