WATER CONSERVATION & MANAGEMENT
SCENARIO IN RURAL AREAS OF PUNJAB
Water is essential for sustaining life.
Conservation and management of this scarce commodity is utmost need in present times.
2
The water conservation efforts can be categorised for:
Habitat conservation. Minimizing human water use helps to preserve fresh water habitats.
Sustainability. To ensure availability for future generations, the withdrawal of fresh water from an ecosystem should not exceed its natural replacement rate.
Energy conservation. Water pumping, delivery, and wastewater treatment facilities consume a significant amount of energy. Energy conservation is one of the most important part in improving water management practices.
Rooftop Rain water harvesting. The method of recharging ground water by harvesting rainwater has gained importance. It has been made mandatory for all new water supply schemes being constructed. 3
Govt. of Punjab has already approved a Rural Water Supply & Sanitation Policy 2014 on 24.2.14 that supports water conservation & improving water management practices

Realizing the need for institutional and investment reforms in the rural water supply and sanitation sector, Government of Punjab has reworked its rural water supply and sanitation policy:-•Sustainable water supply: To ensure the availability, quality and sustainability of domestic water supplies by
(1) conserving existing water sources (2) improving the efficiency of existing schemes
(including reduction of losses) and their financial viability; (3) using all possible options of water treatment as per
requirement; •User participation: To ensure effective participation of users in developing, operating and maintaining water supply services and to empower them to manage their own water supply and environmental sanitation services.•Institutional capacity: To improve institutional capacity and human resources of government departments to provide efficient, effective and sustainable water and sanitation services, by working with empowered and capacitated local communities
In order to rationalize the consumer payment as per consumption of water, metered connections are being / proposed to be provided. It has been observed that wastage of water has been curtailed to a large extent and there is increase in public satisfaction particularly among poor sections of the society.
Now DWSS shall pursue the following initiatives: Convert all existing unmetered water connections to metered ones within the next 5
years Ensure that all household connections from new water supply schemes are given
metered connections Phase out public taps by ensuring 100% rural households with individual water
connections Provide private water connections inside of outer boundary of individual houses in a
phased manner, as per priority given below: Priority 1: Villages with more than 70% households with private water connections Priority 2: Villages with 50-70% households with private water connections Priority 3: Villages with less than 50% households with private water connections
Prioritize provision of private water connections for scheduled caste and scheduled tribe households in all villages
6
Punjab Govt. through DWSS has successfully completed and closed on 31.12.14, first World Bank Aided Rural Water Supply & Sanitation Project wherein participation of Panchayati Raj Institutions/ Beneficiaries under Sector Wide Approach was key focus for implementation with following salient features:
7
PRIs through GPWSC to be responsible for up gradation and management of all intra-village RWSS facilities & services
DWSS to be responsible for managing complex multi village water supply schemes with improved fiscal & operational performance, and provide support to Gram Panchayat Water Supply & Sanitation Committees(GPWSCs) for single village schemes
Introducing Partial Capital Cost Sharing by users as an expression of their demand/personal involvement
Realization of user charges & funding for recurrent O&M cost from the user community
Redefining DWSS role from direct service delivery to facilitation and partnership
I. Need Based to Demand Based Water Supply Schemes
Adopting Sector Wide Approach (SWAp) for all Schemes implemented under MTP with partial capital cost sharing by users
II. Role of Governance from Provider to Facilitator Changed role of DWSS to effectively manage and
monitor the use of participatory processes and demand responsive approach
Work closely with empowered PRIs and local communitiesIII. Financial and Operational Sustainability of Scheme
Empowerment of villages & GPWSCs by using creative social recognition & Capacity Building programs
SWAp-Paradigm Shift
8
Orientation of DWSS from Civil to Social Engineering role through:
Overall RWSS program management including IEC and M&E of activities, outcomes and impacts
Planning and construction of community sanitation schemes with active participation of GPs and households
Organizing social, technical and management support to GPs and GPWSCs for all intra-village RWS schemes
SWAp-Decentralized Service Delivery Approach
9
Harnessing Stakeholder for the New Roles
Orientation of (GPs / GPWSCs) for: Planning, technology selection Procurement, construction O&M management of water supply schemes
Tools Employed:
Training of PRIs on PRWSS project Training on Operation and Maintenance Training for women empowerment Training of village technician, Plumber, Operator waterworks and GPWSC membersTraining on Quality Aspects
Capacity Building of Stakeholders
