About The Manual
The objective of developing sector specific guidance manual for Townships & Area
Development Projects is to provide clear and concise information to all the stakeholders i.e.
project proponent, environmental consultant, Rajasthan State Pollution Control Board
officials and the public to have a better understanding on the relevant environmental aspects
in the initial stage itself. This manual covers the legal requirements, clearance process,
environmental standards and maintenance of statutory records. The manual will also cover
the environmental aspects due to Townships & Area Development projects. The project
proponent may use this manual to ensure that all the aspects of the environment due to the
project are addressed and adequate mitigation measures are planned in the environmental
management plan and he will be fully aware of the environmental process and
requirements. The consultants will have similar understanding of the sector and the
procedures involved, so that the quality of EMP reports will be improved. The reviewers
across the board may have same understanding about the sector and helps them in the
process of review and appraisal. Public who are concerned about Townships & Area
Development projects, will have information about the environmental aspects, standards,
regulatory requirements etc., and have a better understanding about the Townships & Area
Development projects.
The preparation of sector specific guidance manual by Rajasthan State Pollution Control
Board is in line with National Environmental Policy 2006, which emphasizes on:
- Formulate and periodically update, codes of good practices for environment for
different category of projects
- Ensure faster decision making with greater transparency and access to information,
together with necessary capacity building
The manual is meant to serve as a guidance purpose only. Although every care has been taken
to avoid errors or omissions, we will not be responsible for any damage or loss to any person,
for the result of any action taken on the basis of this manual. Any discrepancy found may be
brought to the notice of the Board. In case of interpretation of any question related to law, the
provisions of the original law and the rules made thereunder with various government
directions/resolutions will have to be read and followed. In case of amendment to the original

Cool roof A property of a surface that describes its ability to reflect and reject heat.
Cool roof surfaces have both a light color (high solar reflectance) and a
emittance (can reject heat back to the environment)
Day lighted area The daylight illuminated floor area under horizontal fenestration (skylight)


or adjacent to vertical fenestration (window)
Effective Aperture Visible Light Transmittance x Window-to-Wall Ratio (EA= VLT x WWR)
Horizontal The area under a skylight, monitor, or sawtooth configuration with an
Fenestration effective aperture greater than 0.001 (0.1%). The day lighted area is calculated
as the horizontal dimension in each direction equal to the top aperture
dimension in that direction plus either the floor-to-ceiling height (H) for
skylights, or 1.5H for monitors, or H or 2H for the sawtooth configuration, or
the distance to the nearest 1000mm (42in) or higher opaque partition, or one-
half the distance to an adjacent skylight or vertical glazing, whichever is least
Vertical The floor area adjacent to side apertures (vertical fenestration in walls) with
Fenestration an effective aperture greater than 0.06 (6%). The day lighted area extends
into the separate perpendicular to the side aperture a distance either two
times the head height of the side aperture or to the nearest 1.35m (54 in) or
higher opaque partition, whichever is less. In the direction parallel to the
window, the day lighted area extends a horizontal dimension equal to the
width of the window plus either 1m (3.3 ft) on each side of the aperture, the
distance to an opaque partition, or one-half the distance to an adjacent
skylight or window, whichever is least.
Enclosed building A building that is totally enclosed by walls, floors, roofs and operable
devices such as doors and operable windows
Energy Efficiency Performance of smaller chillers and rooftop units is frequently measured in
Ratio (EER) EER rather than 1/ (kW/ton). It is the ratio of net cooling capacity in Btu/h
to total rate of electric input in watts under designated operating conditions.
The higher the EER, the more efficient the unit
Faade area Area of the facade, including overhanging soffits, cornices, and protruding
columns, measured in elevation in a vertical plane, parallel to the plane of
the face of the building. Non-horizontal roof surfaces shall be included in the
calculations of vertical faade area by measuring the area in a plane parallel
to the surface
Fenestration All areas (including the frames) in the building envelope that let in light,
including windows, plastic panels, clerestories, skylights, glass doors that are
more than one-half glass, and glass block walls
Skylight A fenestration surface having a slope of less than 60 degrees from the
horizontal plane. Other fenestration, even if mounted on the roof of a
building, is considered vertical fenestration
Fenestration area Total area of the fenestration measured using the rough opening and
including the glazing, sash, and frame. For doors where the glazed vision
area is less than 50% of the door area, the fenestration area is the glazed
vision area. For all other doors, the fenestration area is the door area
HVAC system The equipment, distribution systems, and terminals that provide, either
collectively or individually, the processes of heating, ventilating, or air
conditioned to a building or portion of a building
Lighting Efficacy The quotient of the total lumens emitted from a lamp or lamp/ballast
(LE) combination divided by the watts of input power, expressed in lumens per
watt
Lighting Power The maximum lighting power per unit of area of a building classification of
Density (LPD) space function


Lumen It is the unit of a total light output from a light source. If a lamp or fixture
were surrounded by a transparent bubble, the total light flow through the
bubble is measured in lumens. Lamps are rated in lumens, which is the total
amount of light they emit, not their brightness and not the light level on a
surface. Typical indoor lamps have light output ranging from 50 to 10,000
lumens. Lumen value is used for purchasing and comparing lamps and their
outputs. Lumen output of a lamp is not related to the light distribution
pattern of a lamp
Luminaries A complete lighting unit consisting of a lamp or lamps together with the
housing designed to distribute the light, position and protect the lamps, and
connect the lamps to the power supply
R-Value (thermal The reciprocal of the time rate of heat flow through a unit area induced by a
resistance) unit temperature difference between two defined surfaces of material or
construction under steady-state conditions. Units of R are m2 .K/W
(h.ft2.0F/Btu). For the perspective building envelope option, R-value is for
the insulation alone and does not include building materials or air films
Reflectance The ration of the light reflected by a surface to the light incident upon it
Shading coefficient The ratio of solar heat gain at normal incidence through glazing to that
(SC) occurring through 3mm (1/8 in) thick clear, double-strength glass. Shading
coefficient, as used herein, does not include interior, exterior, or integral
shading devices
Skylight roof ratio The ratio of the total skylight area of the roof, measured to the outside of the
(SRR) frame, to the gross exterior roof
Solar Heat Gain The ratio of the solar heat gain entering the space through the fenestration
Coefficient area to the incident solar radiation, typically ranging from 0.9 to 0.1, where
(SHGC) lower values indicate lower solar gain. Solar heat gain includes directly
transmitted solar heat and absorbed solar radiation, which is then
reradiating, conducted, or convected into the space
Tinted (As applied to fenestration) Bronze, green, or grey coloring that is integral
with the glazing material. Tinting does not include surface applied films
such as reflective coatings, applied either in the field or during the
manufacturing process

Transmittance) construction and the boundary air films, induced by unit temperature
difference between the environments on each side. Units of U are W/m2-0C
(Btu/h ft2 0F).
Window Wall The ratio of vertical fenestration area to gross exterior wall area. Gross
Ratio (WWR) exterior wall area is measures horizontally from the exterior surface; it is
measured vertically from the top of the floor to the bottom of the roof
Urban Heat Island An Urban Heat Island is a metropolitan urban area, which is significantly
Effect warmer than its surroundings. As population centres grow in size, they tend
to have a corresponding increase in average temperature. Scientists refer to
this phenomenon as the Urban Heat Island Effect. The two main causes of
the urban heat island is modification of the land surface by urban
development and waste heat generated by energy usage. One consequence
of urban heat island is the increased energy required for air conditioning and
refrigeration in cities that are in comparatively hot climates

Design layout - to ensure adequate solar access and ventilation
Depending upon the geographical latitude and sky conditions a precise analysis of the local
climate; surroundings, urban development and surrounding terrain in relation to solar
access, daylight availability and predominant air movement should be carried out. This
would control minimum distances to be kept between the built up volume and open spaces.
The design of the layout should allow for wind protection and solar access in winter, and at
the same time provide adequate sun protection and ventilation in summer months. The size
and density of the layout should provide desired comfort levels maximum from natural
resources. Solar path analysis and wind pattern assessment should be carried out in the
design stage that would help developers decide upon the alternatives for the type of layout
and the proportion of the built volume and open space in the layout.
The submittals should be provided only to indicate the optimized layout of buildings on the
site with respect to sun path and optimized solar access and availability of wind for natural
ventilation. Following are the factors, may be considered during the lay out design.
Open spaces
The proportion of open space and its built-up edges should be designed such that it ensures
winter solar access and summer ventilation. Vegetation may provide as shading and
promote evaporative cooling. In hot dry climates, evaporative cooling through appropriately
sized wet surfaces or fountains have a desirable effect.
Design layout should ensure the following
Area allotted for Sewage Treatment plant

Area allotted for of Garbage Segregation
Area allotted for of DG Sets
Parking requirement should meet - the local body requirements, NBC 2005 and MoEF
Area for visitors parking
Area for green belt and lawns

Sustainable site planning
Site planning is a vital component of any type of development activity and is the first
step. However, ideally the design team should be involved in site selection and
should assess the appropriateness of the site relative to the proposed development. Analysis
and assessment of the site characteristics in terms of its capacity to provide natural resources
inside the building such as light, air and water without damaging the natural environment
should be carried out during site selection and analysis process
Sustainable site planning is a critical phase of the green design process. When selecting a
potential site, you should look to eliminate or minimize the disruption of the existing
environment as much as possible. Using the topography of the site is paramount. This
allows for detailed planning that outline the existing and proposed design concepts to
include the home location, vegetation, land slope, setbacks, and other crucial factors
Cut and fill: Preserve natural slopes to aid natural drainage. The amount of excavation
should be minimized as far as possible. Removing or importing soil (also known as cut and
fill) adds to environmental emissions via the transporting of the soil. Furthermore,
rearranging the landscape may disturb the flow of water being directed away from the
project. This may affects the original contours of the surrounding areas
Landscaping: Preserve natural landscaping whereever possible and use vegetation of native
to the environment. Layout and form of the project must conform to the landscape of
the area without unduly affecting the scenic features of that place.
Land use distribution at scheme level: Land use distribution at scheme level shall be
planned while designing the project lay out.
Ambient environment quality in the region: Levels of air, noise and water pollution should
be surveyed and considered carefully before implementing the building design.
Availability of infrastructure: Infrastructure requirement should be properly assessed such

as:
Development of Roads
Development of Drainage
Providing Water supply
Providing Power and Telecom facilities
Planting trees along with roads
Storm water management and Rain water Harvesting System
Street lights
Onsite management of waste: The following requirements are very important from
environmental consideration

Land acquired should be minimum but sufficient to provide for a green belt
wherein the treated wastewater, if possible/ suitable, could be utilized from wastewater
treatment systems
Adequate space may be provided for storing solid wastes. The space and the waste can
be made available for possible reuse in future.
Adequate space shall be provided for construction of STP
Estimation of water demand
The water requirements for different types of buildings should be estimated as given in
Annexure 13
Estimation of solid waste generation
The garbage quantity needs to be estimated by adopting 0.5 kg/head for residential areas
and 0.3 kg/head for commercial areas. Other solid wastes anticipated are STP sludge, waste
oils, batteries, and bio medical wastes.
Construction Phase: The following should be considered during the construction stage:
Road construction
Storm water drainage construction
Other infrastructure
Material requirement and lead distances
Cut and fill quantities (excavation)
Disposal of excess cut material and or source of fill materials including lead distances.
Walkable streets
Street network
Access to surrounding vicinity
Heat island reduction
Water recycling
Composting of garbage and use of manure
Use of solar lighting and street lighting
Use of solar heating

CHAPTER 6
Good Practices
6.0 Water Conservation
In view of critical shortage of water, conservation of water by rainwater harvesting and by

use of recycled water to the maximum extent possible should be explored. In this regard the
following provisions may be explored:
The local authority preparing a town-planning scheme or a development plan should see
that the local water bodies are preserved, and if dry, are activated by directing water-
courses appropriately. If required, the same should be enlarged, deepened etc
The water body should be protected by ensuring that no permanent/temporary
construction development takes place around it up to a distance of 50m from the edge of
water body and the same shall be suitably landscaped. Further, the public shall have
easy access to the water body the rain water run-off shall be suitably directed to
Recharging Wells in plots belonging to the local authority and of appropriate design
Tue local authority should encourage for collection of rainwater from roofs and terraces
and direct the same either to a storage tank or to a recharging well
Buildings having central air-conditioning plants requiring water for cooling purposes
may not be allowed to use fresh water for the purpose
Commercial or residential multi-storey complexes may use recycled water for flushing of
toilets. Separate storage tanks and separate distribution pipes shall be provided for the
purpose
6.1 Parking Spaces
Parking space provided for vehicles
For car, the minimum parking space to be 3m X 6m when individual parking space is
required and 2.75m X 5m when common parking space is required
Space for scooter/two wheeler and bicycle to be not less than 1.25m2 and 1.00m2
respectively
Area for each equivalent car space inclusive of circulation area is 23m2 for open parking,
28m2 for ground floor covered parking and 32m2 for basement
(Source: National Building Code of India, 2005)
6.2 Dual plumbing system and grey water treatment
Water from toilets is called black water (Sewage), while water from laundry, kitchens,
and baths is called grey water (sullage).
Grey water constitutes 70% of the wastewater, which can be treated by using simple and
cost-effective systems and can be reused for landscaping, external washing, and toilet
flushing. Reusing grey water can reduce the dependence on municipal and bore water
by up to 60%.
Dual plumbing system separates grey water and black water at the source of generation,
following which specific treatment options either for grey or black water can be adopted.
Separating grey water and treating it onsite for reuse reduces the volume of
the wastewater to be collected and treated and, hence, reduces the stress of public
sewage lines and centralized wastewater treatment systems.
6.3 Location of the Septic Tanks
A sub-soil dispersion system shall not be closer than 18m from any source of drinking water,
such as well, to mitigate the possibility of bacterial pollution of water supply. It shall also be
as far removed from the nearest habitable building as economically feasible but not closer
than 6m, to avoid damage to the structures. Under no circumstances shall effluent from a
septic tank be allowed into an open channel drain or body of water without adequate
treatment.
6.4 Energy Labeling Programme
The energy-labeling program offers significant benefits to the consumers. It enables

consumers to reduce their monthly energy bills while using Air Conditioners and provides
information on energy use. There is wide variation in energy consumption of different
makes of Air conditioners. This led to the continuous availability of inefficient Air
conditioners in the market and purchase by consumers, leading to waste of precious and
costly energy. The energy labeling program sets out to correct this situation in the India Air
conditioner market. Minimum efficiency performance standards have been prescribed by
BEE and the appliances are rated on the basis of energy efficiency indicated by suitable
number of stars on the nameplate label. The no. of stars can vary from 1 to 5. Higher stars
indicate higher energy efficiency and more energy bill savings for the customers
Energy labeling program is mandatory from January 2010 for the following products
Frost-free Refrigerators
Room Air Conditioners
TFL
Distribution Transformers
6.5 Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC)
The Energy Conservation Act, 2001 (52 of 2001) empowers the Central Government under
Section 14(p) read with Section 56(2)(1) to prescribe Energy Conservation Building Code
(ECBC). The code defines norms and standards for the energy performance of building and
their components based on the climate zone in which they are located. In May 2007, the
Ministry of Power, Government of India formally launched the ECBC for its voluntary
adoption in the country.
The code is applicable to buildings or building complexes that have a connected load of 500
kW or greater or a contract demand of 600 KVA or greater. Generally, buildings or
complexes having conditioned area of 1,000 m2 or more will fall under this category. The
code is presently under voluntary adoption in the country. The code would become
mandatory as and when it is notified by the Central and State government in the official

Gazette under clause (p) of 14 or clause (a) of 15 of the Energy Conservation Act
2001 (52 of 2001)
The provisions of the Code apply to:
Building envelops, except for unconditioned storage or warehouses

Mechanical systems and equipment, including heating, ventilating and air conditioning
(HVAC)
Service hot water heating
Interior and exterior lighting
Electric power and motors
6.6 ECBC User Guide 2009
The purpose of Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC) is to provide minimum

requirements for energy-efficient deign and construction of buildings and their systems. The
building sector represents about 33%of electricity consumption in India, with commercial
sector and residential sector accounting for 8% and 25% respectively. Estimates based on
computer simulation models indicate that ECBC- complaint buildings can use 40 to 50% less
energy than conventional buildings. It is estimated that the nationwide mandatory
enforcement of the ECBC will yield annual savings of approximately 1.7 billion kWh. The
ECBC is expected to overcome market barriers, which otherwise result in under-investment
in building energy efficiency.
The ECBC User Guide provides detailed guidance to building owners, designers, engineers,
builders, energy consultants, and other on how to comply with the code. It provides
expanded interpretation, examples, and supplementary information to assist in applying
ECBC during the design and construction of new buildings as well as additions and
alteration to existing buildings. This guide can also be used as a document by authorities
having jurisdiction in the enforcement of the code once it is made mandatory. The guide
follows the nomenclature of the code. It is written both as a reference and as an instructional
guide, and can be helpful for anyone who is directly or indirectly involved in the design and
construction of ECBC-complaint buildings
6.7 BEE Star Rating for Office Buildings
Energy audit studies in buildings have shown large potential for energy savings both in
government and commercial office buildings. Study of the available data has shown that
there is an urgent need for improved energy efficiency of buildings. National commercial
energy benchmarking initiative was taken up with a goal to establish a framework to
standardize energy data collection, baseline setting for typical commercial buildings,
energy performance target setting and monitoring, and use the information to improve
energy efficiency in buildings. This information can help the users and other stakeholders to
evaluate building energy efficiency and track improvements compared to other buildings
and recognize the top performers.
The Star Rating Program for buildings would create a demand in the market for energy
efficient buildings based on actual performance of the building in terms of specific energy
usage. This programme would rate office building on a 1-5 Star scale with 5 Star
labeled buildings being the most efficient.
Five categories of buildings office buildings, hotels, hospitals, retail malls, and IT Parks in
five climate zones in the country have been identified for this programme. Initially, the
programme targets the following 3 climatic zones for air-conditioned and non-air
conditioned office buildings:
Warm and Humid

Composite
Hot and Dry
To apply for rating of office buildings, BEE developed standardized formats for collection of
actual energy consumption: data required includes buildings built up area, conditioned and
non-conditioned area, type of building, hours of operation of the building in a day, climatic
zone in which building is located, and other related information of the facility.
6.8 Cool Roofs
Depending on the material and construction, a roof will have different properties that
determine how it conducts heat to the inside of the building. Cool Roofs are roofs covered
with a reflective coating that has a high emissivity property that is very effective in reflecting
the suns energy way from the roof surface. These cool roofs are known to stay 100C to
160C cooler than a normal roof under a hot summer sun; this quality greatly reduces heat
gain inside the building and the cooling load that needs to be met by the HVAC system
(Source: Energy Conservation Building Code (ECBC -User Guide, 2009)
6.9 Good Practices in Design and Construction
Longer dimensions of buildings should face north and south (with a maximum deviation
of 50 off north) and shorter dimensions should face east and west. In multistoried
apartments, the sides having openings should face either north or south
A building designed according to solar path remains comparatively cool in summers
and warm in winters, thus obviating the need for artificial heating or cooling
For external lighting, 50% - 100% of outdoor lighting should be based on solar
photovoltaics alone or in combination with other renewable sources of energy such as
biomass
The switches used for outdoor lighting generally do not take seasonal variation or a
timer should be used that is sensitive to seasonal variations and adjusts on the basis of
actual length of day/night
Solar passive buildings are designed to provide thermal and visual comfort by using
natural energy sources and sinks like solar radiation, outside air, wet surfaces,
vegetation and so on. The solar passive buildings have potential to reduce energy
demand by 5% - 20%
Roof is the largest source of heat gain, especially in low-rise buildings. Hence, proper
treatment of roof is necessary to reduce heat gains during daytime. Treatment of roofs
provides comfort levels and reduces cooling loads inside a building. Thermally
insulating the roof reduces the U-value (thermal conductivity) for the roof section. All
exposed roof shall have a maximum U-factor of 0.261 W/m2 0C or a

minimum R-value (the measure of its resistance to heat flow. The higher the R-value, the
more the material insulates. It is the reciprocal of U-factor) of 3.5 m2 0C/W
All heating and cooling equipment should meet the minimum efficiency requirements,
as specified in the ECBC (Energy Conservation Building Code), 2007
Solar water heating system should be explored. A solar water heater uses the energy
from sun to heat water, which is used for different applications such as bathing,
washing, cooking. The overall potential of solar water heating in India is estimated as
140 million sq.meters and about 1 million sq.meters of solar collector area has been
realized
Water saving fittings should be planned. An old single flush toilet could use up to 12
liters of water per flush, while a standard dual-flush toilet uses just a quarter of this on a
half-flush
Use of electronic flushing system or magic eye sensor can further reduce the flow of
water to 0.4 litre per flush, and waterless urinals use no water
A standard showerhead may use up to 25 litres of water per minute, whereas water-
efficient showerhead might use as little as 7 litres of water per minute which is less than
a third of that consumed by standard showerhead
Grey water after treatment should be explored for landscaping purpose in order to
conserve fresh water intake. If no grey water or waste water treatment is undertaken on
the site, the total landscape water requirement per annum should not exceed the total
amount of rainwater colleted per annum
Water demand in landscape should be reduced by planting native and low water
consuming plants
Providing dual plumbing system for separating wastewater and grey water and for
using treated grey water should be explored. A wastewater treatment system should be
provided only where sewerage network with STP is not available. In all the cases grey
water recycling should be explored
Construction and demolition waste management plan should be drawn
Waste should be segregated in to biodegradable and non biodegradable and proper
disposal plan should be prepared. All recyclables should be sent to recycling units.
Should explore composting, vermin composting etc., to dispose biodegradable waste
Re-use of swimming pool discharge water for toilet flushing purpose etc.

The maximum permissible sound pressure level for new diesel generator (DG) sets with
rated capacity up to 1000 KVA, manufactured on or after the 1st July, 2003 shall be 75 dB (A)
at 1 meter from the enclosure surface
The diesel generator sets should be provided with integral acoustic enclosure at the
manufacturing stage itself
The implementation of noise limit for these diesel generator sets shall be regulated as given
in paragraph 3 below
2. Noise limit for DG sets not covered by paragraph 1
Noise limits for diesel generator sets not covered by paragraph 1, shall be as follows:
2.1 Noise from DG set shall be controlled by providing an acoustic enclosure or by treating
the room acoustically, at the users end
2.2 The acoustic enclosure or acoustic treatment of the room shall be designed for minimum
25 dB (A) insertion loss or for meeting the ambient noise standards, whichever is on the
higher side (if the actual ambient noise is on the higher side, it may not be possible to check
the performance of the acoustic enclosure/acoustic treatment. Under such circumstances the
performance may be checked for noise reduction up to actual ambient noise level,
preferably, in the nighttime). The measurement for insertion loss may be done at different
points at 0.5m from the acoustic enclosure/room, and then averaged
2.3 The DG set shall be provided with proper exhaust muffler with insertion loss of
minimum 25 dB (A)
2.4 these limits shall be regulated by the State Pollution Control Boards and the State
Pollution Control Committees
2.5 Guidelines for the manufacturers/users of Diesel Generator sets shall be as under:
01 The manufacturer shall offer to the user a standard acoustic enclosure of 25 dB (A)
insertion loss and also a suitable exhaust muffler with insertion loss of 25 dB(A)
02 The user shall make efforts to bring down the noise levels due to the DG set; outside
hid premises, within the ambient noise requirements by proper siting and control
measures

03 Installation of a DG set must be strictly in compliance with the

recommendations of the DG set manufacturer
04 A proper routine and preventive maintenance procedure for the DG set should be set
and followed in consultation with the DG set manufacturer which would help prevent
noise levels of the DG set from deteriorating with use

Annexure - 16
Rain Water Harvesting Structures
Rainwater available from rooftops of buildings, paved and unpaved areas goes waste. This
water can be recharged to aquifer and can be utilized gainfully at the time of need. The
rainwater harvesting system needs to be designed in a way that it does not occupy large
space for collection and recharge system. A few techniques of roof top rainwater harvesting
in urban areas are described below.
Roof Top Rain Water Harvesting Through Recharge Pit

In alluvial areas where permeable rocks are exposed on the land surface or at very
shallow depth, roof top rainwater harvesting can be done through recharge pits.
The technique is suitable for buildings having a roof area of 100 sq.m. and are
constructed for recharging the shallow aquifers.
Recharge Pits may be of any shape and size and are generally constructed 1.0 to 2.0 m.
wide and 2.0 to 3.0 deep, which are back filled with boulders (5 - 20 cm), gravels (5 10
mm) and coarse sand (1.5 - 2.0 mm) in graded form. Boulders at the bottom, gravels in
between and coarse sand at the top so that the silt content that will come with runoff will
be deposited on the top of the coarse sand layer and can easily be removed. For smaller
roof area, pit may be filled with broken bricks/ cobbles.
A mesh should be provided at the roof so that leaves or any other solid waste / debris is
prevented from entering the pit and a desilting /collection chamber may also be
provided at the ground to arrest the flow of finer particles to the recharge pit.
The top layer of sand should be cleaned periodically to maintain the recharge rate.
By-pass arrangement be provided before the collection chamber to reject the first
showers.

Roof Top Rain Water Harvesting Through Recharge Trench

Recharge trenches are suitable for buildings having roof area of 200-300 sq. m. and
where a permeable stratum is available at shallow depths
Trench may be 0.5 to 1.0 m wide, 1.0 to 1.5 m deep and 10 to 20 m. long depending upon
availability of water to be recharge
These are back filled with boulders (5-20cm), gravel (5-10 mm) and coarse sand (1.5-2.0
mm) in graded form boulders at the bottom, gravel in between and coarse sand at the
top so that the silt content that will come with runoff will be coarse sand at the top of the
sand layer and can easily be removed
A mesh should be provided at the roof so that leaves or any other solid waste/debris is
prevented from entering the trenches and a desilting/collection chamber may also be
provided on ground to arrest the flow of finer particles to the trench
By-pass arrangement be provided before the collection chamber to reject the first
showers
The top layer of sand should be cleaned periodically to maintain the recharge rate

Roof Top Rain Water Harvesting Through Existing Tube wells

In areas where the shallow aquifers have dried up and existing tube wells are tapping
deeper aquifer, roof to rain water harvesting through existing tube well can be adopted
to recharge the deeper aquifers
PVC pipes of 10 cm dia are connected to roof drains to collect rainwater. The first roof
runoff is let off through the bottom of drainpipe. After closing the bottom pipe, the
rainwater of subsequent rain showers is taken through a T to an online PVC filter. The
filter may be provided before water enters the tube wells. The filter is 1 1.2 m. in length
and is made up of PVC pipe. Its diameter should vary depending on the area of roof, 15
cm if roof area is less than 150 sq m and 20 cm if the roof area is more. The filter is
provided with a reducer of 6.25 cm on both the sides. Filter is divided into three
chambers by PVC screens so that filter material is not mixed up. The first chamber is
filled up with gravel (6-10mm), middle chamber with pebbles (12-20 mm) and last
chamber with bigger pebbles (20-40 mm)
If the roof area is more, a filter pit may be provided. Rainwater from roofs is taken to
collection/desilting chambers located on ground. These collection chambers are
interconnected as well as connected to the filter pit through pipes having a slop of 1:15.
The filter pit may vary in shape and size depending upon available runoff and are back-
filled with graded material, boulder at the bottom, gravel in the middle and sand at the
top with varying thickness (0.30- 0.50m) and may be separated by screen. The pit is
divided into two chambers, filter material in one chamber and other chamber is kept
empty to accommodate excess filtered water and to monitor the quality of filtered water.
A connecting pipe with recharge well is provided at the bottom of the pit for recharging
of filtered water through well

Roof Top Rain Water Harvesting Through Trench With Recharge Well
In areas where the surface soil is impervious and large quantities of roof water or surface
runoff is available within a very short period of heavy rainfall, the use of trench/ pits is
made to store the water in a filter media and subsequently recharge to ground water
through specially constructed recharge wells
This techniques is ideally suited for area where permeable horizon is within 3m below
ground level
Recharge well of 100-300 diameter is constructed to a depth of at least 3.0 to 5.0 m below
the water level. Based on the lithology of the area well assembly is designed with slotted
pipe against the shallow and deeper aquifer
A lateral trench of 1.5-to 3.0 m width and 10 to 30 m length, depending upon the
availability of water is constructed with the recharge well in the centre
The number of recharge wells in the trench can be decided on the basis of water
availability and local vertical permeability of the rocks
The trench is backfilled with boulders, gravels and coarse sand to act as a filter media for
the recharge wells
If the aquifer is available at greater depth say more than 20 m, a shallow shaft of 2.0 to
5.0 m diameter and 3.0 5.0 meters deep may be constructed depending upon
availability of runoff. Inside the shaft a recharge well of 100-300 mm dia is constructed
for recharging the available water to the deeper aquifers. At the bottom of the shaft a
filter media is provided to avoid choking of recharge well

Water Quality Inlets
Water quality inlets (WQIs), also commonly called oil/grit separators or oil/water
separators, consist of a series of chambers that promote sedimentation of coarse materials
and separation of free oil (as opposed to emulsified or dissolved oil) from storm water. Most
WQIs also contain screens to help retain larger or floating debris, and many of the newer
designs also include a coalescing unit that helps to promote oil/water separation. WQIs
typically capture only the first portion of runoff for treatment and are generally used for
pretreatment before discharging to other best management practices (BMPs).
A typical WQI, as shown in following Figure, consists of a sedimentation chamber, an oil

separation chamber, and a discharge chamber. The basic WQI design is often modified to
improve performance.
Advantages and Disadvantages
WQIs can effectively trap trash, debris, oil and grease, and other floatables that would
otherwise be discharged to surface waters (Schueler, 1992). In addition, a properly esigned
and maintained WQI can serve as an effective BMP for reducing hydrocarbon contamination
in receiving water sediments. While WQIs are effective in removing heavy sediments and
floating oil and grease, they have demonstrated limited ability to separate dissolved or
emulsified oil from runoff. WQIs are also not very effective at removing pollutants such as
nutrients or metals, except where the metals removal is directly related to sediment removal.
