7. ANALYSIS OF DATA

7.a ‘Precipitation and the Need Of Water” in Bulandshahr

Proposed area in Bulandshahr allotted for different uses = 3210 hectare

                                                      Peak rainfall intensity = 25 mm/ 15 min

                                                                 Annual rainfall = 700 mm

                                                                      Type of soil = sandy to clayey

                                                                       Water table = 190-192m above MSL

                                                          Rain water received = 3210H104 sqmH0.7 m

                                                                                          = 2247H104cum

                                                                   (a) =2.25H1010 lit

                                               Population of Bulandshahr = 3 lakh (2021 year)

                          Water requirement per person (average) = 200 lit a day

                                                                  Hence for year = 3H105H200H365 lit

                                                                   (b) = 2.19H1010 lit

                                                                Here we find (a)=(b)

                                                         Rain water received = Total water requirement

                                                                                      (Excluding industrial and irrigation)

                          Therefore, we should be able to ‘catch and hold all the drops!’
