FOREWORD
The first post-independence development plan for Mumbai, formulated by the Mayer-MODAK Committee dates back to 1948 which suggested Satellite Towns North of Mumbai. Ten years later, the BARVE Committee suggested the formation of a township on the mainland across the Thane Creek as a counter-magnet to draw away population from the over crowded city. Accordingly NMMC was constituted on 17th Dec, 1991; by the state government for the catering to the requirements of 29 villages in CIDCO Navi Mumbai Project and 15 villages from KALYAN. The local Self Government started functioning from 1st Jan, 1992. NMMC has an area of 344.70 sq. km. under its supervision. The population in 1991 was just 3, 97,000; which rose to 7, 50,000 in 2001 census and during the last decade it has grown substantially. Navi Mumbai is a beautiful planned city; a Counter Magnet for Mumbai. It has been developed as an Independent, Fully Self Contained Metro City, having the Worlds Large, Totally Planned, Well Balanced, and Modern City. The Well Planned Transportation Net-Work consisting of Road, Rail, and Water Way System: makes Navi Mumbai easily accessible from all parts of the Country. The proposed Domestic cum International Airport is envisaged to further enhance this accessibility The development plan for Navi Mumbai envisages planning & development of various nodes [There are 8 nodes.] or township. The entire Navi Mumbai township is expected to have about 20 nodes with a population of about 2 million. The urban development consists of a Well Planned System for Sewerage & Water Supply exist in NMMC area. Such three Sewage Treatment Plants at BELPUR CBD, SANPADA & KOPARKHAIRNE having capacities of 19, 37.5, & 87.5 MLD are already in the process of becoming functional with under-ground drainage system in tow. In order to cope up with massive tasks taken on the shoulders, it has become imperative to draw up a coherent urbanization policy to implement the projects on mission mode such as J.N.N.U.R.M. Indian Register of Shipping (IRS) was appointed as Third Party Quality Audit of Sewage Treatment Plants vide letter of acceptance No. NMMC / EE (SS/PT) / 497 /20-11 dated 23rd Nov, 2011 and subsequent W.O.

SUGGESTIONS

24

TO IMPROVE LONGEVITY AND SAFETY OF STPs IN GENERAL Suggestions to improve Longevity and Safety of STPs in general: I.] It is observed in all STP s that the main walkways passing through C Tech Basins are provided Antiskid Ceramic Tiles along with Poly Carbonate Circular Roof and this is alright considering main area of operation as well as for Visiting Personals. However, the other walkways are left bare without tiling and the concrete finish is also rough. These walkways are on top of C Tech Basins wall portion projecting on either side. The rough finish on top of walk way will soak rainwater during rainy season. Further transverse cracks are observed in this slab which when saturated by rainwater can endanger reinforcement of slab as well as walls of C Tech Basins. This problem cannot be solved by just sealing the cracks even with epoxy. Therefore, it is suggested to cover this entire portion with Chequered tiles or any other suitable material. II.] The above walkways have SS railing on both sides with two horizontal runners, however the bottom [above the walkway slab] portion is left open without any arrester in the form toe flat, so that no accident can occur slipping through this large gap. Regular maintenance gangs will walk on this plant walkways and hence this precaution is necessary from safety point of view, for the workers. III.] Decanter Actuator Arm niche is open now and is susceptible for mishap. It is therefore suggested to have a raised platform so that any person will not hamper Arm Movement along with smooth ride. [Arm Movement will not be hampered along with smooth ride by any person.]
