have been constructed for water level and quality momtoring.

Under ground water exploratory programme 24 No. exploratory wells at
different location have been constructed.

Under demonstrative project, artificial recharge structures have been
constructed in Bel watershed in Amla block.




2.0 Rainfall & Climate



The climate of Betul is characterized by a hot summer and general dryness except
rainfall during the south- west monsoon season. The year can be divided into four
seasons. The cold season, December to February is followed by hot season from March to
about first week of J une is the summer season. The period from the middle J une to
September is the south-west monsoon season. May is the hottest month of the year with
average temperature of 39.3
o
C. The minimum during the December is 10.3
o
C. The
normal annual mean maximum and minimum temperature is 30.7
o
C and 17.9
o

C
respectively.
The south-west monsoon starts from middle of J une and lasts till end of
September. October and middle of November constitute the post monsoon or retreating
monsoon season. The normal annual rainfall of Betul district is 1192.6 mm. About 86.6%
of annual rainfall is received during monsoon season. Only 13.4% of annual rainfall takes
place between October to May.

The humidity comes down lowest in April. It varies between 31% to 91% at
different time in different seasons. The wind velocity is high during the monsoon period
as compared to pre and post monsoon. The wind velocity is higher in J une around
8.5Km/hr and lowest is 3.8 km/hr in November.

3.0 Physiography and soil



The district has four district physiographic division viz (i) Satpura plateau in
Tawa and Morand valleys (ii) The Satpura plateau in central and (iii) southern part of the
district (iv) and Tapti valley. The whole district lies on Satpura plateau at an elevation of
365 m above mean sea level. The general elevation is about 609m at Kilendeo form the
highest peak in the northern and central parts of the district. Tawa valleys lies at on
elevation of 396m amsl between peaks of Kilandeo and Bhogwangar, the general scope
of the valley is towards the north west.

The country is mainly undertaking with presence of few residual hills and is inter
sector by large number of stream joining Taw the high land mass of the district sub sides
into the fringing ravenous country of Wardha and tributaries of the Kanhan. The went of
Khamla is highest point 1137 m amsl in the entire country and forms the part of Gwagarh
hills.

The drainage of the district is diverted in all direction from the eastern high mass
of Satpura plateau. The northern and central part of the district drains into the Narmada in
the north through Tawa, Machna Morand and the Bhange. The Tapti bengh basically
consequent river and flowing to the west drain water of the western and southern central
part of the Purna, Mam and Wadha occupy small areas of their drainage in the southern
part of the district.

In the district, there are five types of soils namely kali soil, Morand soil, Matbarra
soils, Bardi soil Sihar and retard soils. The southern central and eastern part of the district
is covered by black cotton soil.
















4.0 Ground Water Scenario


4.1 Hydrogeology
Betul district is underlain by various geological formations, forming different
types of the aquifer in the area. Main geological units of the area are, Archean,
Gondwana Lameta, Deccan traps, Laterite and soils. Occurence and movement of ground
water in hard rocks is mainly controlled by secondary porosity through joints and
fractures primary porosity in gondwana sandstone and vasicular basalts. In deccan traps
play an important role in ground water movement ground water is general occurs under
unconfined and semi confined to confined conditions.

The occurrence and movement of ground water is different geological formations
is described below:

Archeans
The crystalline metamorphic and igneous rocks covers approximately 20% of the
total district area. The igneous rocks are intensive granite and pegmetiteviens intending
the motopohic rocks. Quartz pegmatite views are common features and occurs as broad
dykes and thin strings. The ground basins are conterminous with surface drainage sub
basin thus ground water flow system are of local types where end system has its recharge
area at topographic low. The archeans are mainly occupying the Beutal, Chichab, Multai
and Amla blocks. These rocks do not have primary porosity and hydraulic conductivity.
The weathered part of the crystalline rocks are called saprolite, which is of particular
interest from the point of view of storage zone for ground water and as an aquifer for
open well and shallow tube wells. The thickness of this zones in the entire district area
ranges from 2.5 to 30.00 m. in this formation, aquifers also occurs where bed rock and
quartz pegmatite intensive vien are jointed and fractures. The yield depends upon
saturated thickness of the weathered mantle and fracture pattern of the rocks. The open
wells that exist in this formation range in depth of 8.00-20.00 mbgl generally the coloum
of water available during pre monsoon season varies from 2.00 4.00 m. The general
yield potential of archean formation less than 180 lpm. However at places the yield
potential in deeper aquifer are found to the tune of 600 lpm. The specific capacity ranges
between 54 to 162.69 lpm/m/min and permeability ranges from 9.57 to 29.83 m
2

/day in
shallow aquifers.
Gondwana
The Gondwana rocks are comprising succession of sand stone, shales with seems
of coal lying over the meta morphic rocks of crystalline archean system with a district
unconformity. The beds of Gondwana rocks are distributed in patches and lie in a liner
trends coinceding almost with the present river valleys. There rocks show considerable
faulting. The Talchir beds consisting of sandstone and green clays with boulders contain
plant fossits. There are bounded by fanlts. The west and north west of Betul, there are out
of Gondwana rocks which separates deccan traps from archeans rocks. Barkars of
Gondwana group contains coal seams. In Gondwana system mostly groundwater
structures tapped sandstone and argillaccos shales and rarely clays. The groundwater
structure in Barkar series ranges in depth from 5-16.30 mbgl where as in Talchir series
the depth of dug wells ranges from 8-14 mbgl there rocks are occuping Ghoradongri
Shahpur and part of Bhimpura blocks. The yield potential of Gondwana ranges from 100
lpm to 300 lpm tapping semi confined and unconfined aquifers.

Deccan Traps
Deccan traps comprising varies types of basaltic lava flows and most extensive rocks in
the district. There rocks occuping in Betul, Multai, Bhimpura, Chicholi, Bhainsdehi,
Atner and Prabkat pattam blocks. The base of the flow consist of a porons layers of
earthy basalt which passes rapidly into the main body. Of flow consiting of great
thickness of hard basalt. Generally the deccan trap in the area occens in the form of
fractures, weathered and vesicular basalts. The groundwater structure occurring the
fractures basalt tapped the ground water resource between the depth range 6 to 14.00
mbgl. In the weathered basalt the depth of ground structures varies from 4.15 10-20
mbgl, while in vesicular type of flows the depth of ground water structures ranges from 3
to 20-00 mbgl. The yield of shallow aquifer in this formation ranges between 60 to 300
lpm.

DEPTH TO WATER LEVELS
Pre Mansoon (May, 2006)
Central ground water board has been carrying out water level monitoring through
ground water monitoring wells since last two decades. The water levels of there
monitoring wells are being monitored form time is a years during the month J an, May,
August and November. A hydrogeological map (Fig-2). Of Betul district has been
prepared on the basis of available data. To study ground water regime of the area, pre
monsoon and post monsoon depth to water level maps of the district has been prepared.
The central part of the district is highly undulating and forested. In this are there ane few
wells are available for monitoring of water level pre monsoon (may 2006) in general
depth to water level in the district, ranges between 2.75 m below ground level at
Nempani in Shahpur block and 12.15 m bgl at J unapani in Multai block area. In major
part of the district, depth to water level ranges between 5 to 10 mbgl recorded in most of
the blocks (fig. -3) depth to water level ranges more 10m has been recorded at another,
Bhainsdehi, Multai and Shahpur.

Post Monsoon (November 2006)
During post monsoon season of year 2006 depth to water level varies from 0.36
mbgl at J hallar to 7.90 mbgl at. Masod in basalt terrain (fig.4).Shallow water level in
thean 6 mbgl are observed in most part of the district. However depth to water level 6-10
mbgl are observed at J ogli Sasudra and Masod in the north western and southern part of
the district.

Water level fluctuation between pre and post monsoon season 2006
In the entire Betul district, rise in water between pre and post monsoon season
have been recorded. Rise in water level ranges from 0.m at Pattan in South eastern part of
the district to 8.50 m Athner is southern part of the district Rise in water level less than 2
in observed at Satunadra Water level rise between 2 and 4 m is recorded at J ogli in
western part the district. Rise in water level more than 4 m is reported in the remaining
monitoring wells.


Ground Water Level Trend May 1997 to May 2006.
Analyisis of ground water level data of pre monsoon period indicate that these is
decling water trend in Amla, Bainsdehi, Multai and Prabhat pattan blocks. In general
0.050 to 0.487 m/year water level declines have been observed in the district however
these is also rise in water level between 0.027 m to 0.30 m have been recorded in the
Betul and Ghoradongri blocks.

Ground Water Level Trend (November 1997 to November 2006).
Analysis of ground water level data of post monsoon period indicate that there in
declining trend of water level the decline of 0.04 to 0.057 m/year has been recorded in the
entire district.

Aquifer parameters
CGWB has drilled 28 exploratory wells in the district hydrogeological data of
exploratory wells in the district is given in table-3. Table- 3 shown that yield of arhean
vary from 0.5 to 16.00 and drawdown ranges between 4.20 to 45 m. The yield of deccan
trap in the district very from 0.75 to 14.0 lps and drawdown was observed between 2.83
to 25.5 in the yield of Gondwana ranges between 0.40 to 1.80 lps. The transivity values
ranges between 3.16 to 553.35 m

.
4.2 Ground Water Resources
Ground Water Resources estimation of Betul district has been computed for the
base year 2004 on blockwise basis except Amla block falling in semi critical category,
entire district are falling under safe category. Except Betul blocks falling in both non
command and command area, entire district is falling under non command area. Higher
stage of development is computed on 85% for Amla block and Lowest is computed as 15
por Ghoradongi block.

As per ground water resources estimation figures, net ground water availability in
Betul district is 854.67 MCM and ground water draft for all user is 414.07 MCM making
stage of ground water development 48% as whole for district after making all allocation
for future domestic and industrial supply for next 25 years, balance available ground
water for future irrigation would be 33.80 MCM at 50% stage of ground water
development safe limit in Betul district. Blockwise ground water resource estimation data
of Betul district is given in table 4 and data is also presented in fig. 5.

4.3 Ground Water Quality
The groundwater samples are being collected form each monitoring wells during
the month of May every year. The quality of ground water in district is being described
by the analysis of groundwater samples from 7 ground water monitoring wells. The
analysis of water samples for year 2006 indicate that the pH values of all water samples
varies between 7.63 to 8.10 showing alkaline nature of water in the district. The electrical
conductivity (EC) values were found in the range of 350and 1300 us/cm at 25C. The
nitrate in ground water of Betul district is varying between 3-145 mg/l Nitrate more than
100 mg/l was found in only one village namely

Nimpani (145 mg/l) The higher concentration of NO
3

may be due to excessive
use of fertilizer and localized pollution. The study of analyzed data shows that this
district does not have any problem of fluoride since all the wells have fluoride less than
1.5 mg/1 permissible limits. No arsenic content was detected in the groundwater. Ground
water quality in the district is generally good for drinking .
The chemical quality of groundwater is an important factor to be considered in
evaluating its suitability for irrigation purpose. The parameters such as EC, Sodium
Absorption Ratio (SAR), percent sodium (% Na) and Residual Sodium Carbonate (RSC)
are used to classify the water quality for irrigation purpose. US Salinity Laboratory
suggested a diagram of classifying waters for irrigation purposes in 1954. The plot of US
Salinity Laboratory diagram suggested that except are observed under C
2
-S
1
class
(medium salinity and low sodium) which means that these waters can be used for all type
of crops on soils of low to high permeability and C
2
-S
1

(high salinity and low sodium)
class. How ever ground water in the district in generally safe for irrigation but proper
drainage system is required where EC is more than 1500 us/cm at 25C.

5.0 Ground Water Management Strategy



5.0 Ground Water Development
As per ground water resources estimation of Betul district for the year 2004 the
available ground water resources and gross ground water draft are 854.67 MCM and
414.07 MCM respectively, making state of ground wate development 48% as whole for
the district, Amla blocks is categorize as semi critical blocks. Except Amla block all
blocks fall under safe category. However Multai and Athner blocks are advancing towaed
semi critical category. The decadal water level trend analysis reveals mixed trend of
water level during pre and post monsoon season. After making the allocation for future
domestic and industrial supply up to 25 years, balance available at 50% stage of ground
water development under safe limit of Betul district would be 429.98 mcm if 70% baleen
available ground water resources in to be developed through dug wells and 30% through
tube wells, than at suitable hydrogeological location tentatively. 60060 new dug wells
and 12870 tube wells for irrigation can be constructed in the district considering unit draft
of dug wells and tube well .005 and .01 mcm respectively. The area recommended for
future development is given in fig. 6. dug wells are feasible in all geological formation
however tube wells are feasible in Gondwana. However tube wells are feasible in
Gondwana and deccan traps at appropriate locations. DTH rigs are to be deployed in the
district and at places combination rigs may be deployed.




6.0 Ground Water Related Issues and Problem

Long term water level trend analysis shows mixed results. Depletion of ground
water levels is observed during pre and post monsoon season in ground water monitoring
well in Athner Multai and Prabhat pattan and Amla block. The stage of development of
ground water in Multai and Athner blocks. Are advancing from safe to semi critical
categories due to fast agricultural development in these blocks. The drilling problems in
Athner and Bhaindehi blocks are observed due to presence of three to four inter trapping
beds encountered in the basaltic lavas flows. In Betul blocks, lameta beds of sedimentary
origin is encountered below 120m which creates the drilling problem as below this depth
rotary rig is not operative.

Since there is thermal plant station at Sarni, the possibilities of ground water
pollution in the area due to fly ash may occurs in future.







7.0 Awareness and Training Activities

7.1 Mass Awareness Programme (MAP) and water management Training
programme (WMT) by CGWB

Three mass awareness programme have been organized by CGWB in Betul
district one MAP was organized on 19.9.05 at J aywanti Hoskar college, Betul which was
attended by PHED officers, Nagar Palika officers, NGOs and other citizens. The second
MAP was origized by CGWB at Sasundra, High school Betual and more than 150 student
and Panchayat Karmis participated this programme on 12.09.06. The third map was
organized on 7.10.06 at pump honur of Athner distict betul more than 170 villages
Panchayat Karmis and NGO participated in this programme. Two water management
training programmes were organized by CGWB, The first WMTP was held on 17.09.05
at PAthakheda, WCL auditorium 60 Participated from western coal field officers were
trained in this programme. The second WMTP was organized at Utsav hotel, Betul on
6.10.06 for the officer and official of PHED and Nagar Palika. 70 Participants attended
this training programme.

7.2 Participants in Exhibition, Mela etc.
CGWB has not taken any participation in exhibition, Mela and fair etc. in Betul
district.

7.3 Presentation, Lectures delivered in Public forum Radio/TV etc.
CGWB has not done such activities in Betul district.


8.0 Area Notified by CGWA / SGWA

In Betul district, no area is notified by CGWA / SGWA.
Rainwater Conservation and Artificial Recharge
The central ground water board, under the central sector scheme, has been
extending technical and financial support to the state government for implementing rain
water harvesting and artificial recharge structures in Betul district. The project on
artificial recharge to ground water in Bel- watershed in Amla block in under progress
which is being implemented by Public Heath Engg. Department, Govt. of M.P.

While working for the project of Artificial recharge to ground water in Bed water
shed is found that the optimum monsoon runoff is to tune of 281.0 MCM is considered as
surplus monsoon runoff. The total requirement of water is worked out 149 MCM.
Ministry of Water Resource has financed Rs. 99.81 lakhs to construct the various
artificial recharge structure in Bel watershed of Betul district. Under this project 23
number RCC check dam 3 number of de-silting of tanks with 2 no of recharge shafts and
40 no piezometer have been constructed.

Like wise the priority should be given in Multai, Athner, Prabhat pattan and Betul
blocks for constructed of artificial recharge structures to check the declining trend of
water level in the these blocks.

9.0 Recommendations


a. In Amla, Multai, Athner and Prabhat Pattan blocks, average water levels are deep
decadal fluction and long term trend are showing a decline in water level and
balance of ground water is left limited. The population and progress coupled with
poor aquifer are responsible for the critical situation. Thus special attention is to
be taken white developing the ground water resource in there blocks. At large
scale artificial recharge practices are to be adopted which one shown in fig.

b. In Amla, Betul and Mulla blocks, sngarcane and soyabean crops are being grown
in the area. The sugarcane is high intensive water crop. Change in cropping
pattern is another measures which will relieve the situation.

c. In Ghoradongri, Shahpur, Chicholi Bhanpur and Bhainsdeh blocks, the stage of
ground water is low, falling in safe category which provide ample scope for
ground water development for irrigation by increasing the numbers of dug wells
and tube wells at 50% stage of ground water of a development stage.

d. Drilling problem Athner, Bhainshdehi and Betul blocks are reported where inter -
trappean and intratrappen are encountered at variable depth so proper drilling
technique is to use adopted in hard and soft rocks and proper well assembly is to
be designed in basalts rocks.
