  1. PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  2. Salient features- Water Supply • Mainly the rivers Damodar, and Ajoy are forming important surface water sources of the district. • Majority of the households are depending on ground water for drinking through own tube wells rather than depending upon those available for community as a whole. • Even in rural areas, the demand for piped water facility has been increasing. • Majority of people in urban areas are satisfied with the availability of potable water, whereas it is comparatively low in rural areas. • People prefer exclusive use of drinking water sources rather than depending upon common facilities PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  3. Salient features- Water Supply General Distribution of Persons in BPA by sources of Potable Water PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  4. Salient features- Water Supply Comparative assessment on average dependency of Urban(Municipal) and Rural population on source of potable water PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  5. Salient features- Water Supply Comparative representation of the ‘access to sources of drinking water by Urban(Municipal) and Rural populations PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  6. Salient features-Sanitation • Most crucial problem existing in BPA is the poor sanitation and drainage facilities available. • In many semi-urban areas, considerable percentage of the households use open space as latrine. PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  7. Salient features-Sanitation • In general, only 6.9% of populations in BPA are provided with a sewer system. • The systematic sewer system is totally absent in rural and the percentage of people practicing open defecation is increasing to the tune of 37% PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  8. Salient features-Sanitation • The percentage of people having the ‘exclusive use’ of toilet facility decreases from urban to rural areas. PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  9. Salient features-Drainage • On an average, the underground drainage system covers only 1.75% of households in BPA; while 53.14% and 12.3% of households have ‘open pucca’ and ‘open kutcha’ drain respectively. It is observed that nearly one-third of the total number of households live in premises without any drainage facility • Pucca drains are limited only to average 9.13% households in rural areas, whereas 62.56% have no facilities at all. PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  10. Salient features-Drainage • Most of the drainage channels are stagnant due to solid waste dumping. • It is learned that more than 50% of the households, even in many urban locations are facing water logging. PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  12. Salient features-Solid Waste Management • Only 18.21% of households are using the vats for disposal of solid wastes and majority of households are throwing the wastes either to road sides (42.69%) or open drains (2.32%), with 17.33% of them have no specific area for dumping. PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  13. Salient features-Solid Waste Management • The solid waste produced in urban centers of BPA are of domestic origin and in rural areas people are generating wastes from using cow dung, including domestic and other agricultural wastes. PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE

  14. Salient features-Solid Waste Management • There is no systematic arrangement for the collection and treatment of solid waste except for the central town area. • Road side dumping and burning of wastes are common. No specific sites are exclusively reserved for solid waste disposal and people are at liberty to dump wherever free and open spaces are available PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE Dumping of solid waste on the road side; a common scene.

  15. Salient features-Solid Waste Management • Exiting system of solid waste management, suffers much, due to the unplanned and ill managed traditional practice of collection and transportation of solid waste. Surely, solid waste management is one of the important areas demanding urgent attention. PHYSICAL INFRASTRUCTURE Stagnation of drainage channels due to dumping of solid waste.
