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

 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.

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
Dumping of solid waste on the
road side; a common scene.

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.
Stagnation of drainage channels
due to dumping of solid waste.
