Study on Sustainable Planning, Design and Management of Micro-Watershed for Basavana Bagewadi Taluka of Vijayapur District

The water supply system is very important aspect on a global level, which is used for supply of water for various useful purposes and without which life seems to be very difficult to be sustained. Hence the supply of pure water has been a major concern from years and is still developing. Recent developments involve the use of software's for simulating the hydraulic and water quality. Basavana Bagewadi Taluk of Vijayapur district has number of village tanks that to go dry frequently due to scanty rainfall and on many occasions even drinking water is scarce in summer. In order to take care of this extreme drought situation and to provide drinking water facility to the population of villages and to enable assured irrigation, fishery development it is proposed to pump water from Krishna River during a monsoon month to fill a 10 tanks in this area this will help to recharge ground water table in the region by the use of hydrological model i.e., SWAT. This approach significantly saves time and cost and is able not only to determine the suitable locations, but also to determine the best region for construction of rainwater harvesting structures.
