1. Salient Features of Vizianagaram District Vizianagaram District with its district headquarters at Vizianagaram town is one of the north coastal districts of Andhra Pradesh state. It is surrounded on the East by Srikakulam District, on the South and West by Visakhapatnam district, on the South-East by Bay of Bengal, and on North-West by Odisha state. The district is formed in the year 1979 by carving out certain border parts from both the neighbouring districts of Srikakulam and Visakhapatnam. The district derives its name from the most popular and historical town in the region ‘Vizianagaram’. It lies between 17º 15’ and 19º 15’ of the North latitude and 83º 00’’ and 83º 45’ of East longitude which extends over an area of 6539 Sq. Kms. with a coastline of 29 Kms.

1.1 Administrative Setup

The District is divided into 2 Revenue Divisions (Vizianagaram and Parvathipuram), 34 Mandals, 14 towns and 1,520 villages. The District is naturally divided into Coastal Plains and Upland Zones. Northern region of the district is under Parvatipuram revenue division and comprises mostly of agency tract with hill ranges viz., Dumakonda, Antikonda, Palakonda, Kodagandi and Gamatikonda. These form a part of Eastern Ghats and they run North-East to South-West direction parallel to the coast. The height of these hills is 914 metres on an average, where the highest peak is found at 1615 metres. These hilly areas are seen with dense forest grown with wooded trees and nature’s beautiful locations. There are 3 Parliamentary and 9 Assembly constituencies in the

1.2 Drainage

There are six rivers draining the district, viz. Nagavali, Gosthani, Suvarnamukhi, Champavathi, Vegavathi, and Gomukhi. They originate in the Eastern Ghats and after flowing through the district, finally join Bay of Bengal. The Nagavali is the main river that flows for 112 KM in the district and joins the sea near Mofuzbander, Srikakulam district. It is also known as Langulya, has 200 KM of total length and has a catchment area of 8,964 KM. It originates in Odisha state and flows through Komarada, Jiyyammavalasa and Garugubilli mandals before entering Srikakulam district. Important tributaries of the Nagavali River are Suvarnamukhi, Vegavathi, Janjhavathi and Vottigedda. The Gostani River originates in the Ananthagiri forest area of Srungavarapukota near Borra caves. It flows through Jami mandal before entering Visakhapatnam district. The River Suvarnamukhi originates in the hills of Saluru, flows eastward in Bobbili area before joining Nagavali River near Palakonda of Srikakulam district. The Vegavathi River starts from Pachipenta hills of Pachipenta mandal, flows parallel to Suvarnamukhi before joining Nagavali River. The Gomukhi River originates in the Eastern Ghats and drains in the North-West direction of Saluru. The Champavathi River originates from Eastern Ghats in Srikakulam district, passes through Saluru mandal and Vizianagaram mandal. It finally joins Bay of Bengal near Konada village, Pusapatirega mandal of the district.

Fig.3 Drainage Network and Surface Water bodies of the District

Agriculturally, the importance of the above sources is more as they not only feed minor irrigation tanks but also provide sources for lift irrigation and boost ground water potential. There are 8 reservoirs, 5983 tanks, and 45 ponds in the district. Few important irrigation sources are Thotapally barrage, Denkada, Tatipudi reservoir, Seethanagaram, Pedda Ankalamma anicut, Vottigedda, Vengalarayasagaram, Andra (Extn), Janjavathi, and Peddagedda reservoir. The registered ayacut of these project/canals is 45,036 hectares.

1.3 Climate and Rainfall

The climate of the district is characterized as high humidity almost throughout the year with extreme summer and adequate seasonal rainfall. The summer is normally from the month of March to June. The rainy season is followed in the form of South-West monsoon till the middle of October. Retreating monsoon is followed till November. During the period from December to February, the district experiences good weather with cool temperatures. The northern hilly parts are cooler than plains as they receive higher rainfall and also due to higher elevations. The maximum and minimum temperatures are recorded in the month of May and December respectively. The Automatic Weather Stations (AWS) are established at all mandals by A.P. State Developmental Planning Society (APSDPS), Planning Department, Govt. of A.P. (Fig.5) and the data from these stations is received every day. The annual average rainfall of the district is 1081 mm, of which 922 mm falls as South West (June-September) and 159 mm as North East (October-December) monsoon. The actual rainfall in the district was 1069.0 mm in the year of 2015-16. The mean minimum and maximum temperature recorded in the district were 19.4° C in December and 37.5° C in May, respectively.

2. Land Utilization, Forest and Slope of Vizianagaram District

The Land Use / Land Cover (LULC) pattern of any region is an outcome of various physical and cultural factors, and their utilization by man in time and space. Land use refers to the type of utilization to which man has put the land. It also refers to the evaluation of the land with respect to various natural characteristics. But, land cover describes the vegetal attributes of land. Land use/land cover data is essential for planners, decision makers and those concerned with land resources management. For proper understanding of the influence of various human-induced land use practices with regard to the environmental change, it is essential to help simulate the land use changes. Remote sensing technology is considered the most effective as it provides timely and authentic information about the spatial distribution of land use/land cover, while Geographical Information System (GIS) provides a flexible digital environment for collecting, storing, visualizing and analyzing the spatial data. Remote sensing as a vital tool helps for rapid assessment and monitoring of a natural resource. When combined with GIS, it makes it possible to map land use/cover phenomena in detail for further planning, development, and decision-making, which is essential for meeting the increasing demands and welfare of the ever-growing population.

2.1 Land Use / Land Cover Classification

Various land use/land cover categories have been delineated by using 3 seasons (Kharif, Rabi & Zaid) satellite data under level-3 classification. For on-screen digitization, visual image interpretation techniques (size, shape, color, tone, texture, association and pattern) have been used for classifying the land use/land cover map (NRSA, 2006). This information is used for general planning purposes at district/mandal level. The broad categories are built-up, agricultural, forest, wastelands, wetlands and water bodies. The major part of the district is arable land with substantial forest cover in the north, northeast and southwest of Salur.

small lakes of impounded waterways constructed on land surface for irrigation. They are associated with croplands, low lands and reservoirs surrounded by hills without vegetation. This includes all reservoirs/tanks with water spread seen at least during one season in a year is considered under the permanent category. This category occupies an area of 22.18 sq.kms.

Reservoir/Tanks-Seasonal

Dry reservoirs/tanks are those, which do not have water spread throughout the year are considered seasonal. It is found that many of the tanks are under seasonal category with an area of 203.66 sq. km.

2.2 Slope Map of the District

The concept of measuring slope from a topographic map is a familiar one for most professionals in the natural resources and landscape planning / management and surveying professions. Slope is a measurement of how steep the ground surface is. Steeper the ground surface, greater is the slope. Slope is measured by calculating the tangent of the surface. The tangent is calculated by dividing the vertical change in elevation by the horizontal distance. Slope is normally expressed in planning as a percent slope which is the tangent (slope) multiplied by 100.

Percent Slope = Height / Base * 100 Reliable estimation of the stability of slopes and foundations is very demanding because it is important for terrain analysis to understand the natural process in the disciplines of topography, geology, soils, hydro-geology, infrastructure planning, hazard management both at surface and subsurface. In view of this, slope plays an important role while carrying out decentralized planning at grass root level. Traditionally contour information from 1:50,000 or 1:25,000 topographic maps are used for preparation of slope by manual procedures based on contour value difference for unit horizontal distance. The emergence of remote sensing & GIS systems and the availability of topographic data in DEM or TIN formats, slope maps can be generated using image processing and GIS methods. Representation of

42

slope in percentage is understandable rationale for the resource mapping and planning. As one of the GIS layers, Slope information plays an important role in natural resources and district planning process. It is proposed to generate the necessary slope layer from the available digital topographic data such as Carto- DEM and open source Digital Elevation Model data (NRSC, 2009).

Fig. 13 General Slope of Vizianagaram District

Slope data generated from DEM using GIS techniques produces triangular nature slope polygon. To generate meaningful slope layer, it is suggested to aggregate slope polygons by using manual procedures. However, the slope generated from GIS analysis can be used directly for any decision making/ planning purpose. The accuracy of the slope is dependent on accuracy of the DEM used for slope generation. The DEM should bare earth and should not have spikes or dips which are common in automatic DEM generation. Therefore, to use Carto-DEM, conversion to bare earth DEM has to be carried out before slope layer generation.

3. Agriculture and Horticulture Resources in the District

Agriculture is the backbone of the economy of the district. More than half of its rural population are engaged in agriculture in order to earn their livelihood. Since the district has no big irrigation project, the farmers of the district are solely dependent on rain water. The chief agricultural products in the district are paddy, groundnut, cotton, sugarcane, pulses, etc. Every year a huge chunk of revenue comes from the agricultural products in the district and helps its economy to a great extent. According to agricultural census 2015-16, the total cropped area of the district was 3.82 Lakh Hects of which net area sown was 2.74 Lakh hectares, gross irrigated area was 1.88 lakh Hects and net area irrigated was 1.58 lakh Hects (DES, 2015-16). Mainly three types of soils are seen in the district viz., Red soils, Sandy-loams and Sandy-clay. These three types of soils contribute to 96% of area, while small sandy soils constitute 0.7% along the fringes of the sea coast.

Remote sensing technology has been successfully used by APSAC during the last two decades in the areas of agriculture both in spatial and temporal domain under various projects. APSAC carried out in-season forecasting of acreage for major crops i.e. Kharif rice, Rabi rice, cotton, groundnut etc, at state/ district level for the last two decades in Andhra Pradesh to enable the administrators and planners to take strategic decisions on import-export policy matters and trade negotiations. Rice and Cotton are the dominant crops in Andhra Pradesh in both Kharif and Rabi seasons. In this connection, Department of Agriculture and Directorate of Economics & Statistics are generating data on conventional methods for estimation of crop area and production. In this regard, satellite remote sensing plays a pivotal role with limited field visits for timely estimation and monitoring of the crops.

4. Coastal Resources and Aquaculture of Vizianagaram District

4.1 Status of Shoreline Change in Vizianagaram District

Vizianagaram District was formed in the State on 1st June, 1979 with Headquarters at Vizianagaram. The district is a part of the Northern Coastal plains of Andhra Pradesh and lies between 17° 15’ and 19° 15’ of the Northern Latitude and 83° 0’ to 83° 45’ of the Eastern Longitude. It is bounded on the East by Srikakulam district, on the West and South by Visakhapatnam district, on the South-East by Bay of Bengal and North-West by Odisha State. The district was formed with 12 taluks. The district is drained by the rivers of Nagavali, Gosthani, Suvarnamukhi, Champavathi, Vegavathi and Gomukhi which pass through plain and hilly regions. The district mostly gets rainfall during both the monsoon seasons of Southwest and North East. The normal rainfall during South-west monsoon months, June to September amounts to 71% of the annual rainfall and that during North East monsoon months of October to December constitutes 11 % of the annual rainfall.

The shoreline change estimation was carried out for entire Vizianagaram coast which is about 21.44 km in length. In this study, shorelines were extracted visual interpretation from satellite images of 1989, 1999, 2005, 2010 and 2012.

As a result of the analyses, the most significant changes were observed at Vizianagaram Coast. Summary of statistics for the coastal changes is given in Table-12. The analysis discovered that about 34.47% of the coastlines were under accretion, whereas remaining 14.79% region was experiencing varying erosion and 50.73% of the coast has stable form. While near north side of Barripetta, Chinapathivada area and Veluduru beach is noticed with high accretion and Kummaripalem and Puligeddapalem has the most eroded area.

5.1.1 Major and Medium Irrigation Projects

Irrigation has assumed an increasing significance in agriculture in the context of new technology, where high yielding varieties and multiple cropping is being practiced. The main reasons for low yields are inadequate rainfall, uneven and uncertain rains during the period of crop growth. It is generally found that the introduction of irrigation is associated with changes in the cropping pattern. The shift from traditional cropping pattern to the most advantageous cropping pattern is possible only in the presence of irrigation facilities. The new agricultural technology is highly based on sufficient moisture conditions. Thus, the development of irrigation is crucial for increasing agricultural production. The irrigation projects are classified as major, medium and minor irrigation projects

5.1.2 Major Irrigation Project: The ongoing major irrigation work in

5.2.1 Geology of Vizianagaram District

Geologically, the district constitutes a part of Eastern Ghats Mobile Belt of Archaean age. It includes rocks of Khondalite Group, Charnockite Group and Migmatite complex. Sediments of Upper Gondwana, Cainozoic laterite and Quaternary deposits overlie the Archaeans. The lithological units of Khondalite Group include quartzite, talc- granulite and talc-silicate rock with bands and pockets of crystalline limestone +- scapolite +- wollastonite and garnetiferous quartzofeldspathic gneiss with Sillimanite +- graphite. Khondalite is at places sheared and silicified with thin bands of chert. The various units of Charnockite Group include pyroxene granulite (basic Charnockite) and charnockite (acid/intermediate). The Migmatite complex includes porphyroblastic hypersthene-biotite gneiss, hypersthene-quartz-feldspar augen gneiss, cordierite-hypersthene gneiss +- biotite, and at places, granitoid gneiss. Gneissosity in the granite gneiss is more pronounced in the vicinity of Khondalite. Thick veins of pegmatite traverse these rocks in the north-western part of the area. Upper Gondwana sandstone (containing plant fossils viz Hausmania sp. And Cladophlebis sp. and indeterminate bark impressions occur close to the coast, in the southeast. Extensive capping of aluminous laterite is seen over Khondalite

Group. Quarternary formations, including brown, residual soil, and fluvial and marine sediments, occur along the river courses and coast, respectively. Thick mantle of flood plain deposits comprising clay and silt are restricted to the Gostani, Champavati, Kandivalasa, Vegavati, Suvarnamukhi, and Nagavali river valleys. Coastal deposits comprising beach sand and dune sand occur as a narrow belt of 500-m to 2 km wide, along the coast between Konada and Duvapeta. Khondalite shows two distinct trends of foliation. In the west, it shows NE-SW to ENE-WSW trend with dips ranging from 50' to 809 towards SE. In the east, the general trend of foliation is N 30` W - S 30' E which swerves, at places to WNW-ESE. The dip varies from 40' to 70° easterly or southerly. However, reversal of dips is also noted. The area has undergone poly phase deformation. Nagavali River is marked by a major NNW-SSE trending lineament and the area to the east of the river represents a faulted block.

phosphorus. The deposits around Garbham, Garividi, Perumali, Chipurupalle and Salur have sizeable reserves. These are used for Steel Industry, used as a Catalyst, as rubber additive and to decolourise glass.

Graphite: Rich disseminations of graphite are seen in Khondalite in the northwest and south. It generally occurs as disseminated flakes in gneiss. Rich pockets are noticed near Paluru and southeast of Lakshmipur. The graphite is generally of low to medium grade with 10-30% carbon. It also occurs as pockets and stringers within Khondalite near Sivalingapuram, Tumaravalli, Marupalli, west of Budarayavalasa, Kondamosuru and Dolemba. Small quantities of graphite are exploited from the deposits near Sivalingapuram. It is used for pencil Industry, refractories, chemical industries and Ayurvedic medicine.

Mica: Pegmatite veins carrying muscovite are reported from the hill about 800m SW of Dolemba and near Kurupam. Pockets of pholgopite occur at places where honey-coloured carbonate veins transect pyroxenite, near Kosiguda and are used as thermal electronic equipment as electrical insulators, in paints as a pigment extender. It helps brighten the tone of coloured pigments

Clay: Moderately plastic, silty clay occurring in tank beds is used for manufacturing tiles and drainage pipes. A tile factory using tank mud is located near Jamunarayanapuram, along Vizianagaram - Denkad road. The clay is used for Ceramic and Refractories.

Quartzite: At some places, quartzite occurring as bands within Khondalite is free from impurities and is used in the manufacture of ferro-silicon and also in Software, Electrical and Glass Industry.

Molybdenite: Thin stringers and streaks of Molybdenite are reported from Kotagandredu area in quartzo-feldspathic veins traversing pyroxene granulite.

Sillimanite: Sillimanite occurs as shreds and bundles in Khondalite rocks southwest of Vizianagaram and near Peddarayam (6 km south of Garbham). It is used for Metal, Glass Ceramic and Cement Industry.

Iron Ore: Most important iron ore Deposits are found in Sedimentary rock. They are formed from chemical reactions that combine iron and oxygen in marine and fresh water. The two most important minerals in these deposits are iron oxides hematite (Fe2O3) and Magnatite (Fe3O4).

The major minerals are Manganese and Quartzite, and the others are Moulding Sand, Lime Kankar, Feldspar, Mica, Graphite, and Semi Precious stones. Minor Minerals occurring in this district are Road Metal, Building Stone, Gravel and Colour Granite. Use of Iron ore is the basic raw material mainly used in the making of pig iron, sponge iron, steel and alloy steel. Iron & steel industry is the major consumer of iron ore in the country. This industry uses iron ore in lumps as well as fines after pelletization, sintering or briquetting. Sponge iron is another major consumer of iron ore. Sponge iron is used as a substitute in place of scrap in electric arc furnaces and in mini-steel plants.

5.2.3 Geomorphology of Vizianagaram District Using IRS satellite data and GIS, detailed map of geology, geomorphology and structure of Vizianagaram District was generated on 1:50000 scale as per Rajiv Gandhi National Drinking Water Mission (RGNDWM) guidelines. The objective is to integrate them to locate potential ground water zones and to recommend suitable structures for ground water recharge. Various hydrogeomorphic units are delineated and suitable recharge structures are proposed for the drinking water affected villages. The geomorphic units of different origins (Fig.14) are mapped and described pertaining to Vizianagaram District.

5.2.4. Landforms of fluvial origin

The word fluvial is used in Earth science to refer to processes and landforms produced by running water. As with other surficial processes, running water can either erode material from the earth’s landscape, or deposit layers of sediment. The resulting landforms can thus be classified as either erosional landforms or depositional landforms. The incredible power of running water in carving various erosional and depositional landforms is well known. Although the quantity of water in stream is small at one time during the course of the year, very large volumes of water flow through the channel, and they form an important component in the hydrological cycle. The fluvial dissection of the landscape consists of valleys and their included channel ways organized into a system of connection known as a drainage network. Drainage networks display many types of quantitative regularity that are useful in analyzing both the fluvial systems and the terrains that they dissect (NRSA, 2007).

Channel Bar: Channel bars are formed in the braided river course due to vertical

accretion of the sediments. It represents a highly productive shallow aquifer with good recharge from the river flow.

Flood plain: The surface or strip of relatively smooth land adjacent to a river

channel constructed (or in the process of being constructed) by the present river in its existing regimen and covered with water when the river overflows its banks at times of high water. It is built of alluvium carried by the river during floods and deposited in the sluggish water beyond the influence of the swiftest current.

5.2.5. Landforms of Coastal origin

Coasts are also the loci of a unique assemblage of erosional and depositional processes. The various landforms of coastal areas are almost exclusively the result of the action of ocean waves. Wave action creates some of the world’s most spectacular erosional landforms. Where wave energy is reduced, depositional landforms like beaches are created. The source of energy for coastal erosion and sediment transport is wave action. A wave possesses potential energy as a result of its position above the wave trough, and kinetic energy caused by the motion of the water within the wave. This wave energy is generated by the frictional effect of winds moving over the ocean surface. Higher the wind speed and Longer the fetch or distance of open water across which the wind blows and waves travel, larger the waves and the more energy they therefore possess. Long open ocean waves or swells travel faster than short, locally generated sea waves. Beach Ridges: A low, essentially continuous mound of beach or beach and dune material (sand, gravel, shingle) heaped up by the action of waves and currents on the backshore of a beach beyond the present limit of storm waves or the reach of ordinary tides, and occurring singly or as one of a series of approximately parallel

District Survey Report - 2018

77

deposits. The ridges are roughly parallel to the shoreline and represent successive positions of an advancing shoreline.

5.2.6. Landforms of Structural Origin

Landform of structural origin is related to structural aspect of the area. Most of the landforms under this class has genesis related to underlying structure. Structure plays an important role for reducing the resistance of rock which manifests itself in different geomorphic forms. Some of the variations are minor and some are in mega scale. The mega scale forms have a dramatic effect on the genesis of landforms and hence mapping of such forms indirectly indicates the structural set up of the area. The mega scale structural features like fault and fold depending on its type plays an important role in genesis of structural landform. The influence of geologic structures on the development and appearance of landscapes is prominent. The influence of geologic structures ranges from large features, which exert a dominant influence on the form of an entire landscape, to small features, which affect an individual landform and the geomorphic processes operating on it. The structural control could be active structures whose form is directly impressed on the modern landscape or ancient structural features whose influence on a modern landscape is due primarily to differential erosion (NRSA, 2007). Structural Hills: Hills and valleys, which are originated due to tectonic process and are highly dissected by the drainage lines. This can be further classified as highly, moderately and low dissection depending on the density of joints and drainage. Mostly this will be interpreted from a planimetric satellite data and the classification is highly subjective.

5.2.7. Landforms of Denudational origin

Landform of denudational origin is formed where the denudation process dominates over the other process. Most of the landform resulting due to this

Page 78: DEPARTMENT OF MINES AND GEOLOGY Government of Andhra ... · Vizianagaram District with its district headquarters at Vizianagaram town is one of the north coastal districts of Andhra

District Survey Report - 2018

78

process is the combined effect of mechanical and chemical weathering. Denudation is the process of removal of material by erosion and weathering. This has direct influence on the relief of the area especially in the reduction of relief to the base level. The agents are mostly water, ice and wind. The major factors affecting denudation are geology, climate, tectonics and anthropogenic effects. All rocks and minerals at or near surface are attacked by physical and chemical process. The effect of this process is not the same everywhere because of rocks’ varying resistance to change. As a result, weathering and erosion yield a number of landforms, which have typical shape and forms. Weathering is an essential part of the rock cycle. The parent material, or rock weathered material is disaggregated to form smaller fragments and some of the minerals are dissolved and removed by the agent of water. This removal of material is erosion and is accomplished by running water, wind, glacier etc. The weathering provides a raw material for the sedimentary rock and soil (NRSA, 2007). Pediplain: An extensive, multi-concave, rock cut erosion surface formed by the coalescence of two or more adjacent pediments and occasional desert domes, and representing the end result (the “peneplain”) of the mature stage of the erosion cycle. Based on the thickness of weathering, they are further classified as shallow, moderate and deep pediplains. Pediment: A broad, flat or gently sloping, rock floored erosion surface or plain of low relief, typically developed by sub aerial agents (including running water) in an arid or semiarid region at the base of an abrupt and receding mountain front or plateau escarpment, and underlain by bedrock (occasionally by older alluvial deposits) that may be bare but more often partly mantled with a discontinuous veneer of alluvium derived from the upland masses and in transit across the surface.

Denudational Hill: It is a highly dissected hill which has obliterated structures.

5.3 Structural Features of Vizianagaram District

Vizianagaram District has consolidated formations which include crystallines (Khondalites, Charnockites and granitic gneisses) and meta sediments (Dolomites, shales, phyllites and quartzites) of Archaean and Pre-cambrian periods, respectively. The Khondalite Group of rocks are seen as prominent hill ranges (strike ridges). The rocks of Khondalite and Charnockite groups, and the layered complex show foliation trending dominantly N-S with local swerves to NE-SW and NW-SE (GSI, 2000). The semi consolidated formations are represented by Tertiary formations (Rajahmundry & Gollapalli sandstones) and unconsolidated formations comprise deltaic alluvial deposits of Quaternary period (CGWB, 2013).

5.4. Ground Water Prospects in the District

Ground water occurs in most of the geological formations and its potential depends upon the nature of geological formations, geographical setup, incidence of rainfall, recharge and other hydrogeological characters of the aquifer. In consolidated formations, ground water occurs under unconfined to semi-confined conditions. Ground water is developed in these formations by dug wells, dug cum bore wells and bore wells tapping weathered and fractured zones. The yields are in the range

Page 81: DEPARTMENT OF MINES AND GEOLOGY Government of Andhra ... · Vizianagaram District with its district headquarters at Vizianagaram town is one of the north coastal districts of Andhra

District Survey Report - 2018

81

of 20 to 70 m3/day. The occurrence of fractures in the crystalline formations is limited down to 30 to 40 m bgl and occasionally extends down to 70 - 100 m bgl. The bore wells constructed in the crystalline formations generally tap the weathered and fractured zones. The yields of the bore wells generally range from 80 to 400 m3/day.

Fig.28 Ground Water prospects in Vizianagaram District

The higher yields are limited to the available thickness of fractured and jointed zones. In the meta sediments, the yields are very limited and are in the range of 10 to 80 m3/day. Higher yields occur in limestone formations. Ground water in semi-consolidated formations occurs under unconfined to confined conditions. Ground water is developed in these formations by dug cum tube wells and tube wells. These formations are potential aquifers. The yields of the dug cum tube wells are in the range of 30 to 45 m3/day. Granularity of the sandstone bed is the deciding factor of the yield potential as the higher yields are recorded in the Rajahmundry

5.5 Ground Water Quality of the District

Ground water samples were collected for the entire District from 2126 habitations out of 3141 habitations representing two seasons i.e., post monsoon and pre monsoon in December 2012 and June 2014. The water samples were collected from Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Department (RWS & S) and analyzed for physico-chemical parameters like TDS, TH, Cl, NO3, pH, F, Fe, TA and SO4 using standard techniques in the laboratory and compared with the BIS (10500-2015), in terms of desirable, permissible and non potable classes. Blue, yellow and red colours indicate pre monsoon quality and + , - , . symbols indicate post monsoon quality for desirable, permissible and non-potable classes, respectively. From the analysis, it has been observed that the ground water is polluted in pre monsoon and post monsoon in about 25% of the area is under non potable category due to high concentration of Nitrate and Total Hardness. About 45% of the area is in potable category and 30% of the area is covered by hills and water bodies of entire District. The occurrence and movement of ground water in an area is governed by several factors such as topography, lithology, geological structure, depth of weathering, extent of fractures, drainage pattern, climate conditions and their inter-relationship between these factors.
