Advancing Sustainable Water Management in Solapur through Continuous Groundwater Monitoring with Piezometers and Automatic Water Level Recorders: Insights from the Atal Bhujal Yojana

Abstract

This research focuses on the application of piezometers with automatic water level recorders in the context of the Atal Bhujal Yojana in Solapur, aiming to enhance sustainable groundwater management practices in 114 gram panchayat. The objectives include assessing groundwater dynamics, identifying trends, and evaluating the impact of the monitoring system on local water management. The methodology involved a comprehensive selection of piezometer locations based on hydrogeological assessments, GIS analysis, community consultation, and stakeholder input. Installation procedures and calibration of automatic water level recorders were detailed to ensure accurate data collection. Key findings highlight the significance of continuous monitoring, with identified long-term trends, seasonal fluctuations, and spatial variations in groundwater levels. Positive outcomes include improved community engagement, optimized agricultural practices, and informed decision-making, contributing to the overall goals of the Atal Bhujal Yojana. In conclusion, the research underscores the importance of piezometers with automatic water level recorders in providing real-time, precise data for sustainable water management. The positive impact on local practices, community awareness, and policy implementation reaffirms the effectiveness of this approach in aligning with national groundwater conservation initiatives. Keywords:- Groundwater Monitoring, Piezometers, Automatic Water Level Recorders, Sustainable Water Management, Atal Bhujal Yojana.
