Subject:- Regarding Order of Hon'ble National Green Tribunal (WZ, Bench at Pune) dated 19/08/2020

Reference:- Email received from Maharashtra Pollution Control Board, Aurangabad dated 23/11/2020

With respect to above referred subject, the Committee has inspected 6 wells situated at Adgao

(Khu.) Taluka and District Aurangabad on 06/11/2020. The samples were collected from the wells and

those samples have been tested by Maharashtra Pollution Control Board, Aurangabad. The water

testing report was received on 23/11/2020 through e-mail. According to the reports so received, the

water samples from the wells are tested on the parameters viz.; pH, Conductivity, Chloride, and

sulphate and based on those parameters the tests are conducted by Agricultural Department whether

the water is good for irrigation or not. The reports of water testing received from your department

reveal that, the units of the tests are based on parameter "ppm" instead of "pH" and "Conductivity".

More so, the unit for the parameter "conductivity" are in "Microsemens/cm".

The unit of the tests conducted by Agricultural Department is "mg/I" instead of IpH" and

"Conductivity". More so, the unit of conductivity is "Desi-simens/Meter". Therefore, for sake,the units

of the tests which are conducted by this department have been converted to the units of similar

parameters from your report.

The water grading for the purpose is done as per the table below:

Sr.no. Parameter Permissible limits Medium limits Impermissible Limits

1. pH 6.5 to 7.5 7.5 to 8.5 > 8.5

2. Conductivity <250 250 to 2250 >2250

3. Carbonate{ppm) <0 15 to 45 >45

4. Bicarbonate{ppm) <92 92 0488 >488

5. Chloride{ppm) < 140 140 to 350 > 350

6. Sulphate (ppm) < 96 96 to 576 > 5767. Residual Sodium Carbonate <1.25 1.25 to 2.5 >2.5

{mg/I}8. SodiumAbsorption Ratio <10 10 to 26 > 269. Magnesium Calcium Ratio <1.5 1.5 to 3 >3.0

10. Boron (ppm) <1.0 1.0 to 2.0 > 2.0

The conclusions of reports of Water tests from the above-mentioned table based on above-mentionedsimilar parameters, are as follows:
