2.2 HYDROLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS

The hydrological response of a catchment is controlled by a combination of climate, vegetation,
drainage, soils and land use. Our dedicated hydrologists and engineers have experience in providing
detailed hydrological assessments which are carried out as part of our flood risk and drainage
assessments. These use a combination of topographical information, site investigations, hydrological
data, flow surveys, rainfall data, geological information and other historic data to determine the
extent of catchment areas contributing runoff and the flows in watercourses and drainage systems.

2.2.1 Site visit and investigation at the core area

During the conceptual planning of a project, a preliminary site investigation will be carried out.
During site visit, a thorough investigation of the local site conditions shall be conducted by the VEXL
field survey experts. This survey will be concentrated on the core area where the food industry has
to be erected. Also, the investigation shall be extended to the study area that is 10 km radius from
the boundary of project site. The key properties to be studied during site visit are landform features,
drainage, slope or surface gradients, soil type, field sampling, groundwater records etc.

2.2.2 Study of the local drainage (streams/nallahs/creeks/tanks/ponds etc.) in the project area
Drainage system is the pattern formed by streams, rivers and lakes in a drainage basin. As an
indivisible part of the land, drainage system is an important component in terrain analysis. In a
drainage basin, a number of factors such as topography, soil type, bedrock type, climate and
vegetation cover, influence input, output and transport of sediment and water. Hence studying the
local drainage is a key step in hydrological study of the area. The drainage patterns for the project
area will be developed by compiling input data in three stages:

i. Primary data collection: This includes data obtained through field visit and directly studying
the topography.
ii. Secondary data collection: Secondary data such as Survey of India (SOI) toposheets serves as
an important source for identifying drainage network such as ponds, tanks, streams and
nallahs. Toposheets from SOI are to be provided for this purpose.
iii. iii) Tertiary data collection: Remote sensing and Geographic Information System (GIS)
technologies are widely used by VEXL to generate drainage networks. Sources such as
Google Earth elevations and India WRIS data have been extensively used for the past
projects for identifying natural drainage patterns prior to siting of industries. One such
example can be found in the map shown below.

2.2.3 Review of topographical features of the proposed site

Conducting reconnaissance survey and collection of secondary data are major activities to be carried
out at this point. The study of topographical features is performed to determine the planimetric
location and/or elevation of surface or subsurface features, facilities, or utilities. These surveys are
normally used to prepare highly detailed site plan maps of a project site, facilities, or utility
infrastructure. Topography describes the physical features of an area of land. Review of
topographical features will typically include natural formations such as mountains, rivers, lakes, and
valleys. Manmade features such as roads, dams, and cities will also be included. SOI toposheets will
be used as an input for this purpose. Contour maps will be prepared using the elevation data.

2.2.4 Review and analysis of rainfall information to arrive at design storm scenarios
PO No. SERC/MC1/23575410/415
PO Date : 07/05/2019

The total rainfall received in a given period at a location is highly variable from one year to another.
The variability depends on the type of climate and the length of the considered period. In general, it
can be stated that the drier the climate, the higher the variability of rainfall in time. The same holds
for the length of the period: the shorter the period the higher the annual variability of rainfall in that
period. The rainfall analysis will be carried out using the available hourly rainfall record for a long-
term period, which can be collected from the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD). The
methodology adopted for rainfall analysis is as given below:

i. Analysis of the annual rainfall distribution in the area: This analysis will give the annual
rainfall distribution over the entire period for which rainfall data will be available.
ii. Monthly rainfall distribution: This analysis will give the monthly rainfall distribution and
determine the months with highest rainfall.
iii. Rainfall event analysis: Rainfall event statistics such as identifying rainfall individual events
and corresponding event statistics will be computed from the long-term hourly time series.

2.2.5 Estimation of peak rainfall intensity for different durations and return periods
Peak rainfall intensity will be estimated using IDF analysis is carried out to understand the
relationship between rainfall intensity, duration and its return period. These curves play an
important role in the design of hydrological, hydraulic and water resource systems. The curves are
obtained through frequency analysis of hourly rainfall data over a long period of time.

2.2.6 Estimation of flood hydrographs

The estimation of the flood hydrograph will be carried out through rainfall-runoff modeling.

2.2.7 Estimation and routing of design flood hydrograph considering boundary conditions
Flow routing within a conduit link in PCSWMM is governed by the conservation of mass and
momentum equations for gradually varied, unsteady flow i.e., the Saint Venant flow equations.

2.2.8 Preparation of drainage network diagram

Drainage network will be designed based on elevation data and project area site conditions.
Hydraulic model will be developed to design the capacity of the storm drains to handle and convey
the expected runoff.

2.2.9 Suggesting final disposal point for the storm water & plant drainage
The final disposal point for storm water will be based on the feasibility at the site. This will be
decided only after completion of all the above steps. Lowest point at the site must be identified to
determine the outfall of the drainage network. Also based on the site visit and review of the
topographical features, availability of nearby water body suitable for disposal or re-utilization of the
storm water will be determined based on the client requirement.

2.3 HYDROGEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATIONS

Hydrogeological investigation involves collection, analysis, and interpretation of subsurface data.

2.3.1 Data Collection

It is now common practice to start a groundwater investigation project is with analyses of existing
data. Hydrogeological data may be available in different forms, such as satellite imagery, air photos,
geological maps, reports, geophysical data, etc., but the usefulness of these rests ultimately on the
availability of borehole data to control their interpretations. Central Ground Water Board (CGWB)
serves as a repository for these data and hence collection all existing data and maps will be the first
step in hydrogeological investigation.

2.3.2 Delineating Potential aquifers for ground water development

India is broadly divided into different segments depicting different hydrogeological framework.
Central Ground Water Board (CGWB, 2014) has identified fourteen principal aquifers systems in
India.

Vendor will use GIS based methodologies for further delineation of potential aquifers. Largely, below
features will be identified for developing potential aquifers:

i) Potential recharge zones from landcover survey data.

ii) Location of possible confined and unconfined aquifers
iii) Type of soil deposits and sediments at the site
iv) GPS survey for collecting well coordinates

2.3.3 Observation of water level from the existing dug/ tube wells
Static levels of water will be determined using strings and weight. Ground water levels are being
measured by Central Ground Water Board four times a year during January, March/April/ May,
August and November. A network of 23125 observation wells, as on 31.03.2017, located all over
India, is being monitored. Maharashtra alone has 1850 observatory wells, from which data will be
obtained for the wells located nearest to the proposed site.

2.3.4 Collection of water samples from select dug/ tube wells and surface water source
Ground water samples are collected from these observation wells once a year during the month of
March/April/ May to obtain background information of ground water quality changes on regional
scale. This database thus generated will form the basis for planning the ground water development
and management programs. In case of absence of water quality information, water samples will be
collected to assess the quality of the water. Samples will be taken from locations that are
representative of the water source. The most important tests used in water-quality surveillance are
those for microbiological quality (by the measurement of indicator bacteria) and turbidity and for
free chlorine residual and pH where chlorination is used.

The test conducted on water samples from the region by CGWB have shown that water is alkaline in
nature & TDS is less than 2000 mg/l in most parts of Maharashtra.

2.3.5 Collection of data related to water utilization.

CGWB collects pre-monsoon water level data is from all the monitoring stations during the months
of March/ April/ May, depending on the climatological conditions of the region. Water levels during
August are monitored to access the impact of monsoon on the ground water resources. Post
monsoon data collected during November reflects the cumulative effect of ground water recharge
and withdrawal of ground water for various purposes. January water level data indicates the effect
PO No. SERC/MC1/23575410/415
PO Date : 07/05/2019

of withdrawal for rabi crops. The data is analyzed to know about the frequency distribution of water
levels during different periods and seasonal, annual and decadal fluctuations in water levels. Hence
all the above will be collected for the nearest wells to study the groundwater utilization. Also, during
field visit, purpose of water utilization will be examined by interacting with local population.

2.3.6 Collection of different hydrogeological information connected to groundwater storage

The hydrological properties (Hydraulic conductivity, Transmissivity, Storage Coefficient & specific
capacity etc.) of each and individual aquifer group and cumulative aquifer groups will be collected
and examined by conducting hydrological tests on tube wells. Physiographic units and drainages
information will also be examined. Lithological logs, Electrical logs & linear cross sections & fence
diagram will be obtained to further understand the aquifer system. Additionally, for each district,
CGWB publishes GW brochure each year which will be collected for further understanding.
2.3.7 Conducting pump test on existing bore well and dug well
As per the requirement, pumping test will be conducted wherever required. Pumping test will be
carried out usually at a constant rate and measuring water levels in the pumped well and any nearby
wells (observation wells) or surface water bodies during and after pumping. This will be used as a
practical, reliable method for estimating well performance, well yield, the zone of influence of the
well and aquifer characteristics i.e., the aquifer’s ability to store and transmit water, aquifer extent,
presence of boundary conditions and possible hydraulic connection to surface water.

The common types of pumping tests conducted include the following:

• Constant-rate tests: In this test it is necessary to maintain pumping at the control well at
a constant rate. This is the most commonly used pumping test method for obtaining
estimates of aquifer properties. These tests are carried out by pumping at a constant
rate for a much longer period of time than the step test, and primarily designed to
provide information on the hydraulic characteristics of the aquifer. Information on the
aquifer storage coefficient can be deduced only if data are available from suitable
observation boreholes.
• Step-drawdown tests: These tests proceed through a sequence of constant-rate steps at
the control well to determine well performance characteristics such as well loss and well
efficiency. Step tests are designed to establish the short-term relationship between yield
and drawdown for the borehole being tested. It consists of pumping the borehole in a
series of steps, each at a different discharge rate, usually with the rate increasing with
each step. The final step should approach the estimated maximum yield of the borehole
• Recovery tests: These tests use water-level (residual drawdown) measurements after
the termination of pumping. Although often interpreted separately, a recovery test is an
integral part of any pumping test. Recovery test are carried out by monitoring the
recovery of water levels on cessation of pumping at the end of a constant-rate test (and
sometimes after a step test). It provides a useful check on the aquifer characteristics
derived from the other tests but is valid only if a foot-valve is fitted to the rising main;
otherwise water surges back into the borehole.

2.3.8 Water quality mapping in 10 km radius from the proposed Project.

The water quality analysis will be conducted based on Indian standards for portable water (ISO
10500- 1991). The water should be potable chemically as well as microbiologically. Firstly, the water
samples should be collected from the available boreholes within 10 km radius from the proposed
project area. The water samples will be subjected to various test mainly for E. coli, total hardness,
total suspended solids, total dissolved solids, pH, color, turbidity, Iron, Lead, Zinc, chromium,
cadmium and fluoride, COD, BOD5, DO etc. to verify the if the water quality of water is preferable or

not. In GIS platform, water quality maps will be prepared to understand the variability of water
quality for the entire region.
