Bengaluru: Bengaluru Jalamandali (BWSSB) has devised a World Bank-assisted project to stop the flow of sewage water into 19 lakes under the BBMP.

 A plan to set up Sewage Water Treatment Plants (SPT) has been submitted to the World Bank and its approval is in the final stage. The Jalamandali has planned to complete the installation of STP in one year after getting the approval.

 As per the instructions of the National Green Tribunal, water supply and sewerage lines will be installed in 110 villages on the 'trunked pipeline' model. So that the sewage water does not flow outside. Millions of liters of sewage water from 38 villages and about 30 new layouts under their jurisdiction are directly entering the lakes every day. To prevent this, 9 STPs are installed to drain the treated water into the lake. From this, a plan has been made to drain only treated water in the lakes of this part and the series of canals after it.

 Along with these STPs 10 Intermediate Sewage Pumping Stations (ISPS) are also being set up. The total cost of the project including setting up of ISPS units near lakes where STPs cannot be set up and pumping sewage water to STPs is estimated to be around ₹1 thousand crore.

 A plan has been made to install STP and ISPS to prevent sewage water from flowing into 19 lakes. World Bank assistance has been sought for this and administrative approval has been obtained. As soon as the financial approval is received, the tender process will be completed and the units will be installed, said Jalamandali Chairman Ram Prasat Manohar.

Now a plan has been prepared to treat the sewage water of 38 villages. Similar units will be set up in 110 villages in the coming days. Financial assistance and grants are being checked for this,' he said.

 Action to stop sewage flows to all lakes: Ram Prasat

 "Sewage water flowing into lakes in the city is a perennial problem. This is being gradually reduced and steps will be taken to ensure that sewage water does not flow directly into any lake in the next few years. Only treated water is thought to flow into the lake. Ram Prasat Manohar, president of Bengaluru Jalamandali said that many projects have been prepared for this purpose and the water board will try to save the environment of the lakes.
