Abstract

The water supply and waste water management has been studied through the questionnaire system and official data of Pudukkottai Municipality. Over all satisfaction of the water supply to the public is satisfied in the consumer aspect. But as per the official records, the supply of water at the percapita requirement level was not met to the standards (90LPCD). Like wise drainage system also covered only 32% which means coverage of drain is not comleted yet. Since the UGD systeme is under project stage, disposal of waste water is not an organised manner. Hence some technicl interventions should be made to improve the quantity of water to meet out the LPCD level and to improve drainage system.
