| Dewatering and Pumping |
Trinity Woods and Acres is a 7.5 acres residential community. As part of Rainwater Harvesting implementation it was decided to dig a 6ft diameter and 40ft deep recharge well at one of the lowest points in the layout that is near their currently yielding borewell (which is adjacent to Sarjapura Road)
 |
| 6ft of Water |
 |
| Dewatering with a bucket does not work out |
Work proceeded uneventfully till we struck water at about 9ft. The water had no odour, looked clean , pH 7.5 and TDS 1100ppm. The water seemed to continuously flow in at about 6-10 litres per minute. This made further digging difficult and with a dewatering pump we were able to deepen the well only till about 15ft below ground level. Water had to continually be pumped out every 5-10 minutes to aid digging. Rings were placed immediately to prevent the collapse of the mud walls.
 |
| Discussing Next Steps |
Work was temporarily put on hold due to Ganesh Chaturthi. When we returned 4 days hence to the well this morning we saw clean water – about 6-7ft of it ( 5000 litres +). The apartment is of course very happy and would like to see the well as a source of water
Some of the key questions to which we would like to find answers for are :
- How much water will this well yield per day and for how many days of the year ?
- Is this rainwater ? What is causing the high TDS .
- How are the soil/rock layers below this source of water ? How is it that water is available at 9ft below ground level and not at 1000ft below ground level in the same vicinity
 |
| Covering the Well temporarily – after End of Day |
Further monitoring and data collection will reveal interesting results. We are quite looking forward to it
great!
Sounds good. I am expecting few more updates on this.
And I want to know where in Bangalore, I can test our bore well water? Is it possible to do it on our own? Please guide me.
Thanks.
