FOREWORD

/ The Centrally SponsoredAcceleratedRural Watcr Supply Programme(ARWSP)was started~nthecountry in 1972-73to supplementthe efforts of (lie States/UTsfor supply of safedrinkingwaterin theidentified problemvillages. With the introduction of the Minimum NeedsProgramme(MNP) in 1974-75 arid inclusionofrural walersupplyaspartoftheMNP, theARWSPwaswithdrawnConsidering the magnitudeof the task and thepaucity of resources,the ARWSP had to bereintroducedin 1977-78 to acceleratethe coverageof the problem villageswith safedrinkingwater.The first setolguidelinesfor the implementationof theARWSPwere issuedin August 1986The programme\~-asalsogiven the statusof the TechnologyMission by launching ‘TechnologyMission on Drinking Waterin villagesand RelatedWater Management’as oneof the five nationalsocietalmissionsfor cnsunngsafedrinking watersupply in the problemvillagesby the endof theSeventhFive M~arPlan andalso to provide continuousand regulam scieniific and technologicalinputs for upgradingthe quality andeffectivenessof the ongoingprogrammes.

2 A Centrally SponsoredRural SanitationProgramme(CRSP) was introducedin 1986 with the

objectiveof improvingthe quality of life of the rural peopleand to pro~ideprivacy anddignity tothe women throughthe adoptionof scientific hygieneandsanitarypractices

RECOMMENDEDDESIGN CRIThRIAIn view of the largenumberof prol)Iem vil-lagesgot to be providedwith safewatersup-

piy systemsandthelimited financialresourcesavailableto implement the schemesin suchvillages, it hasbeenconsiderednecessarytohavea secondlook at thecriteriaadoptedinthe designof suchschemes.The primaryob-jectiveof the programmeis to coverasm~inyvillagesaspossiblewithin theresourcesavail-ableandthis canbe achievedonly by design-ing the schemesmost economicallyandgiv-ing priorities for suchschemesin the first in-stanceto have someconstraintson the fac-tors contributingto theestimatedcostsoftheschemesin generaland thefollowing revisedcriteriahavebeensuggestediin respectof theprojectsto be preparedfor inclusion underthe Accelerated Rural Water SupplyProgramme.

POPULkTIONThe manualon watersupplyand treatmentpublishedby the CPHEEOrecommendsthattherural watersupplyschemesshouldhedc-signedfor a future populationexpected30yearshence.This appliesin general,to allpiped water supply systemsto be imple-mentedon aroutinebasis. But in the caseofa crashprogrammelike thepresentAcceler-atedRuralWaterSupplyProgramme,whereavery largenumberofvillagesareto be tackledat onetime,economyin capitalcost,economy

in theuseof pipesandmaterialsandeconomyin constructiontime would form the guidingfactors Oneway ofachievingthis is to restrictthedesignpopulation It is recommendedthatall thenews~hemesto be includedundertheprogrammeshall be designedfor a futurepopulationexpectedat theendofa 10-15 earsperiod,but in no caseshould be iiicreasedbymorethan30 percent of thepresentpopula-tion. The limit maybe relaxedwhen all theprobli~mvillages areassuredof watersupplyfacilities to the extentpossible.

PER CAPITA RATE OF SUPPLYA rate of 40 !pcd for villages wherewater issuppliedthroughstandpostsand70 lpcd forvillages wherehouseserviceconnectionsarecontemplated,are recommendedin themanualon watersupply and treatmentpub-lished by the CPHEEO.In someof theSouthAmericancouniries,wherethe utilisation ofwater wasstudiedby WHO experts, it wasfoundthat alittle over 10 litres percapitaperday~~‘asusedby therural populationdrawingwaterfrom public stanclpostsand in suchcasesadesignrateof 15 lpcd was recommendedto

As In the Sixth Plan,the rural watersUpplycontinuesto be a part of the Minimum Needsprogramme(~[NP) aswell as the revised20-PointProgrammeduring the SeventhPlan.However, In order to achievethe maximum coverageof rural population during the SeventhPlan,the scopeof rural watersupplyunder MNP needsto be extendedto all villages where asit waarestrictedto ldentffiedproblemvillagesuntil the endof the SixthPlan.This approachin the SeventhPlanhasmade it necessarythat thecriteria for allocationof resourcesunderthe AcceleratedRural WaterSupplyProgrammeto the States/UTsshouldtake into accounttherural population,area,povertyand thebacklogof theproblemvillages.This criteria wouldtakeinto accountthe needsof the deprivedsectionsof the populationandalsoeconomicallydisadvantagedareas.2 Accordingly, it Is proposedto allocatefundsto StatesftlTsundertheAcceleratedRural WaterSupply Progranimeaccordingto thefollowing allocationcriteria:a) 50 per centweightagebeinggiven to the ruralpopulationin aState-datataken1981 cen-SusU) 20 per centweight,agebeinggiven to theareaof the State.c) 20 per centweightagebeinggiven to the incidenceof poverty in the State-datatakenfrom38th roundof NSS.d) 10 percentwelght,agebeinggiven to the problemvillageswhich arespill overof the SixthPlan(List of April 1, 1980).3.

1. Attention Is Invited to page3 of the SupplementaryDocumenton the TechnologyMissionon Drinking Water in Villagesand RelatedWaterManagementrelating to mission objectives.The most important objective Is to cover 2.27 lakh residualproblem villagesby 1990.2. Attention is also invited to page 30 of this documentwhereinfinancial resourceshavebeenIndicated to achievethe objectivesthrough theavailablefunds underthe CentrallySponsoredAccelerated Rural Water Supply Programme,part of the funds underRLEGPC~?DDP to bedovetailedto achievethe objectivesand StateSectorMinimum NeedsProgramme,DPAP andNREE It is clearthat eventhe StatesectorMNF outlay for rural water supply hasto beessen-tiadly utiJisedfor providingpotablewaterto 2.27 lakhproblemvillages.3 According to this Department’ssanctionletter numberQ.11016/11/87-PHE(RWS)datedApril 1, 1987,funds releasedasfirst instalmentof grants-In-aidto the States/UTsduring1987-88,shouldbeutilisedby giving priority to the sptilovervillagesof the Sixth FIve YearPlan, if any, and theresidualproblemvillages asperthe targetsof TechnologyMission,vil-lagesunderthe targetof five Sub Missionsvis (a) source finding; (b) control of fluorosis; (c)eradicationof guineaworm;(d) removalof brackishness;and (e) removalof iron m this orderof priority.4. It is obvious from the abovedetailsthat thereis no provisionfor coverageof non-problemvillagesunderMNP However, caseshavecometo noticethatdue to certain local pressureandother reasonsstateshavetakenup coverageof non-problemvillages with MNF funds. Whilesuchcoveragemaybejustified in certainexceptionalcaseson the techno-econoniicconsider-ations like pipeline schemepassingthrough non-problemvillage being extendedto such avillage; thesecasesshouldbe exceptionsonly. Evenaccordingto the SeventhPlanDocument,apartfrom 1.92 lakh problemvillages,47,000otherthanproblemvillageswere estimatedtohavebeenprovidedwith water supplyfacilitiesby the endof the SixthPlan. Diversion ofMNP funds for such a large number of non-problemvillages will put a further con-straint on resources available to achievethe objective of the Technology-Mission andthe aim of the Seventh Plan to provide safedrinking water to the entire rural popu-lation.

The problemof the accumulationof hugeunspentfunds in the handsof the agenciesimple-mentingthe schemesof this Ministry hasbeenengagingour attentionfor sometime.Consideringthe sensitivenatureof the schemeswhich attendto the mostvulnerablesectionsof the societyandthe fact that the projectsarebeingImplementedright up to the GramPanchayatlevel, we havebeenfollowing a releaseprocedureIn which (i) 50 per centof theamount allocatedfor theyearis releasedautomaticallyat thebeginningof theyearasfirstinstalment, (ii) the remaining50 per centis releasedon utilisation of 50 per centof theavailablefunds and(lii) the unttlised funds at the end of the year do not lapseand areal-lowedto be carriedover to thenextyearwithin acertain limit.However, it hasbeenobservedthatover the years,therehasbeenamarkedincreasein theaccumulationof openingbalance~fith the States/statelevel agenciesin respectof the schemesbeingImplementedby this Ministry, as indicatedby the figures gIvenbelow:

OPENING BALANCE

Total. 1,095 1,866 2,335 2,862 3,614

This position is partly attributableto the increaseIn theextentof funds allocatedto thisMinistry (In 1992-1993the allocationwasRs 2,568.46crore, andfor 1997-1998the alloca-tion is Rs 9,100crore) andmain]y dueto the Inability of the Implementingagenciesto absorbandutilise the funds. Though the requestsfor secondInstalmentof 50 per centshouldnor-mally be sentby the monthof October,in most of the Districts the proposalsare receivedin

January,February— andmany evenIn March. The releaseof thesecondmstalmentof 50 percentat the f~gendof theyearand the releaseof the first instalmentof 50 per centatthebeginning of thenext year on ad hocbasishaveresultedin the hugeaccumulationof unspentbalanceswith the Statelevelagencies.

This parking of funds with the Implementing agencieshasbeenviewedwith concernby theMinistry of Finance,andover the last few months,this Ministry hasalso interactedwith theStateGovernmentsin orderto find a solution to this problem The revision of the existingprocedurefor release of funds such as increasingthe number of instalments,etc, wasdiscussedin the meetingof the StateSecretarieson February14, 1996, wherethe consensuswasthat we shouldcontinueto releasein two instalmentsbut the secondinstalment shouldbe agradedreleaseof funds,dependingon the paceof expenditure.

The overall objectiveof DWCRA is to developthe group asa receivingsystemsothat It iseffectivein obtainingbenefitsmeantfor the targetgroup (Para11 9 of the YRDPManual) Inkeepingwith this broadobjective, it is necessarythat womenare involved both in the decisionmaking of developmentalschemesand identified asa specialtargetgroup for all developmentprogrammesparticularly thosewhich are of critical importanceto women.

3h. Important Role for Voluntary Agenciesin the Field ofRural Development

D O.No. L 12012/21/87-PcDated November 23, 1987

IThe SeventhFive-yearPlanenvisagesan importantrole fdr vofuntaryagenciesin the variousdevelopmentprogrammes,particularly in the field of rural development.Theseagenciescanprovide abasis for innovativeaction with new modelsandapproachesfor securingthe in-volvementof the peoplein the developmentprocess.An amount of Rs 150 crore has in factbeenearmarkedfor suchactivitiesby voluntary organisationsin the SeventhPlan While theCentralGovernmentis activelypursuing throughCAPART to involve the voluntary agenciesinthe implementationof rural developmentprogrammesat the centrallevel, a correspondingeffort from the Statesis still to takeshape.2. The formerPrime Minister, lateSmtIndira Gandilhi in her letterof October4, 1982,ad-dressedto all the Chief Ministershadsuggestedthe settingup of aConsultativeGroupofvoluntaryagenciesunder aseniorofficer like the DevelopmentConunissioneror the ChiefSecretaryto give impetusto tbi.s process.My predecessorSbri Buta Sigh hadalsowritten toyou on April 19, 1985,suggestingtheestablishmentof a registeredsocietyat the statelevelfor coordinatingvoluntaryactionjust asCAPART is functioning at the central level. In spite ofthesesuggestions,I am afraid that enoughis not beingdoneto get the involvementof volun-tary agenciesin our rural developmentprogrammes.To give properdirection to our strategyfor promotingvoluntary actionin rural development,it would be necessaryto identify oneofthe departmentsin the StateSecretariatasanodaldepartmentfor the purpose.This couldbethe Statedepartmentof rural developmentor PanchayatiRaj.3. The functionsof this nodaldepartmentmayinclude:a) identificationof all voluntary agenciesin the State;b) to actasa friend, philosopherandguideto voluntary agencies,anda clearinghousefor -.

them;c) to build up a liaison with the Council for Advancementof People’sAction andRural

Technology(CAPART) which is thenationalagencyunderthis Departmentfor promotingvoluntary action,

d) to help voluntary agenciesin the Stateto prepareprojectsandsubmitthe sametoCAPART for sanction,and

e) to list suchnationalagenciesworking in their State,which haveexpertisein thefield ofrural development,andto collaboratewith them.

4. The existingguidelinesfor IntegratedRural DevelopmentProgramme(IRDP) andNationalRural EmploymentProgramme(NREP) alreadyprovidefor the StateGovernmentsand DRDAsto earmark fundsandalsofinanceprojectsthroughvoluntary organisatlons.Not muchusehasbeenmadeof this provision. DRDAS shouldthereforebe askedto sanctionprojectsunderthesetwo programmesthroughvoluntary organisatlonsup to a limit of 10 per centof thetotal allocation for the district. The StateLevelCoordmationCommitteecanbestmomtor theprogressin this regard. -

SchemesunderRLEGP andARWSPare fundedandsanctionedby the CentralGovernment.Iam askingmy officers to earmarkupto 10 per oentof funds undereachof theseprogrammesin eachStatefor voluntary action.You shouldaskthe concerneddepartmentsat the Statelevel to preparean~submitprojectunder thesetwo programmesto the Governmentof Indiafor beingtakenup by voluntary organisations.Careshould,however,betakento ensurethatin each projectthe administrativeandoverheadcostsof the voluntary organisationarekeptlow and In anycasedo not exceed5 per centof the projectcost.7 StateGovernmentsshouldalsoidentltr suitableplanschemesunderthe DepartmentsofAnimal Husbandry;Forests,WasteLandDevelopment,SocialWelfare, HealthandFamilyWelfare, Youth and Sports,Public Health Engineering,etc, for implementationthrough volun-tary organisations.Upto 10 percentof the funds underappropriateschemesof thesedepart-inentscanbe earmarkedfor this purpose.A committeeunderthe chairmanshipof ChiefSecretarycansanctionsuchprojectsandalsomonitor the progress.8 The challengeof reducmgandultimately eliminatingpoverty in our country is a formidableLask. Though Governmentefforts overthe yearshaveshownsome results,much still remainsto be done.It is thereforenecessarythat in our continuedeffortswe providemuchgreateropportunitiesfor voluntary organisatlonsto join us in this task.

OperationandMaintenanceof watersupplyassetscreatedwith hugeInvestmentbothunderthe State sector Minimum NeedsProgrammeand the Centrally SponsoredAcceleratedRuralWaterSupplyProgramme(.ARWSP) is crucial for sustainedavailability of safedrinking waterto the rural peoplein villages covered partially or fully under the National Drinking WaterMission.

3o. Training of Community Volunteers as Hand PumpMechanics Under TRYSEM

SS.R. Sankaran D.OLetterNo R-2001i/8/91-IRD-II

Secretary(Rural Development) Dated:July 2, 1991

Subject: Training of CommunityVolunteersas Hand Pump Mechanics Under TRYSEM

There are over 15 lakh hand pumpswhich have been installed in thecountryfor providingdrinking water supply in the villages. In order to maintain thesepumps in proper workingconditions, we have to create and improve the level of maintenance capabilities of the localcommunity. For this purpose it would be useful to train community volunteers ashand pumpmechanicssothat immediateand minor repairs can be attended to at the level of the localcommunity itself.2. Taking into account the large number of hand pumpswhich are already installed and arelikely to be installed in the coming years, it is consideredthat at least two personsin eachvillage canbe trained ashand pump mechanics.One of thesecould be a woman. The trainingimparted should enablerepair of hand pump unit In the village itself; for major repairs, thetraining should enabletaking out of the pumps or motors from the bore well to the nearestrepair centre.3. The programme of TRYSEM contains provision for imparting of the type of training whichis envisagedfor this purpose. While in someof the DRDAs, training of this nature has beentaken up, this has not been doneall over the country. It is expectedthat the linking up of thetraining with the maintenance of hand pumps would result in the emergenceof a large bodyof trained personsat local levelswho will naturally cater to the demand for this still in themarket, achieving the objective of community-based maintenance in this process.4. This will require a coordinated programme to be undertaken by the Department of RuralDevelopmentand DRDAsin the State in coordination with the Rural Water Supply/Public HealthEngineering Departments. It is consideredthat a training for a period of 45 days may be ad-equate. The funds for training and Infrastructurecan be met from the provisions under TRYSEMand If any additionalfunds are needed,theywill be provided by the Government of India.5. There are a number of voluntary agencieswho are alreadyattending to this programme insome of the Statessuch asRajasthan. The servicesof the voluntary organisations may beenlisted for this purpose.6. It is also requestedthat a meetingmay kindly be convened at the statelevel to discussthedetails and prepare a plan of training In the State. The personnelof the Public Health Engi-neering, Rural Water Supply, Groundwater Surveyand other agenciescould be pooled togetherand support of UNICEF may alsobe availed oL After working out a broad outline at the Statelevel, a District level Committee under the Chairmanship of the District Collector/ChairmanDRDA may work out local level details and coordinate the programme. Close monitoring of theprogramme at the District levelwill have to be done from the State level. The training coursescan be conductedall over the State at the sametime to ensure success.7. Necessaryaction may be taken accordingly and the plan of action by the Statesmay also beintimated to this Department by the middle of August.

Subject:OperationandMaintenanceof WaterSupplySchemes,ParticularlyHandPumpsandStandpostsin Bural Areas

Sir,Propermaintenance of hand pumps,standpostsand other safesourcesof water hasbeenaproblemin the field. Someefforts havebeenmadeby the Statesto involve the local panchayatsand thewaterusercommitteesin managingtheoperationandmaintenanceat the local level.However, the reports receivedfrom the States,the results of the recent habitation survey andan independent evaluationby the Expert Committee(Dr SundaresanCommittee)appointedbythe Govermnentof India show that a large numberof sourcesarein astateof badrepair orare not properly maintained either by the Department or by the local communities orpanchayatswho are the beneficiaries.To supplementthe instructions already issuedand tostrengthenthe operationandmaintenancesystem,the following instructions/guidelinesareissued:

DEFINITION OF SOURCE2. A safesourceis not just a sproutsourcefrom which water is taken; whether it be a handpump, standpost,sanitarywell or awater harvestingstructure. It shouldbe well protectedandmaintainedandshouldgive anaestheticappearance.Sourcesshouldbe locatedconve-ment to all usersspeciallythe poor andunderprivileged.In the case of handpumpsandstandposts,the platform, drains, separatewashingplatforms andarrangementsfor wastewaterdisposalmto a soakagepit will ensuresafetyandsustainabilityof thesourceandwillalsoenhancetheir utility. The areacoveringthesestructuresmay haveto be protectedby afenceor hedgesof greenplantsandbusheswith seatingarrangementslake benchesfor peoplewaiting for water. Wherever,cattle trapsare to be providedparticularly in DesertDevelopmentProgramme Areas, it shouldbe carefully designed sothat the cattleget cleanwater andat thesametime, womenfolk andchildrencantakewater from the source,without being disturbedby the cattle A driaktng water sourceshouldbe treatedascompletedonly afterall theseaspectshavebeenfully implementedandsourceoperatedfor sometime on this basis A fewdesignsin annexureare illustrative. Local adaptationscould be madeon thesemodelscon-forming to descriptiongiven above.

CONVERSION OF EXISTING SOURCES (HAND PUMPS/STANDPOSTS)TO THEDESIRED STANDARD3 The cost for creationof a sourcemay vary depending on the design and the typeof thematerialusedand the location. As Is well understood most of the sourcesdo not conform tothe descriptiongiven above.Therefore,the task is to Improve the existing sourceto comeuptothe abovedescriptionand to construct new sourcesusing any of the designsor their adapta-tiolls to meetthe requirementsdescribedabove.In both improvement and new work, the costof constructioncouldbe high if it is takenasa puredepartmentalwork. The involvementof

e communitywould considerablybring downthe cost andalso makethe arrangements:u~ceptableto the commumty Local community/beneficiarygroupcouldbe consultedat the

me of locatingthe site, at the time of decidingon the componentsto be built or improved,iiound handpump/standpostandduring construction.They could be requestedto sharethe‘ost by contributmg in material and labour.

4 Action has to be Immediatelyimtiated to convertall the old sourcesto comeup to thestandardswithin a specifiedperiod preferablyby the endof Eighth FlveYearplan. After con-versionandrunning satisfactorilyfor a month thehandpumpand its facilities aroundshouldbe handedover for normal maintenance.The responsibilityfor specialrepairs,etc will remainwith the engineeringdepartment.The conversionis an enormoustask and involveshugeresourcesboth from the communityand from the governments.The following maintenancesysteminvolving the local user committeesandpanchayats Is suggestedas a model.h The proposedsystemwill havethe following set up:

OperatIonand maintenanceof the specialrepairsmay be closelymonitoredby the DistrictPanchayatCommitteechairedby the District Panchayat Presidenteverymonth.Superinten-dentEngineer!Executive Engineer,PH]), should be responsiblefor presentingthe progressreportsand problemsto theCommitteeand for taking guidance from the Committee.

f. State Level Monitoring15. The head of the Engineering Department (Engineering Chief! Chief Engineer), Chairman!ManagingDirector of the WaterCorporationshouldclosely monitor the progressof operationand maintenance and theseshould be reviewed at least every quarterIn a committee chairedby the Secretaryof the Engineering Department and with the membersfrom the CommunityDevelopment Department, the Education Department and other related departments. Thecopies of the minutes of such reviewsmaybe sent to the Mission Director by the Chief Execu-tive of the Engineering Department! Corporation.

NEW SOURCESTO BE CREATED16. For all the new sourcesto be created asper new standard, general guidelines above willapply. However, the following additional guidelines may be observed.1) The User Committee at the habitation level shouldbe formed and made operativebefore

the selectionof the site for the new source.ii) Sufficient motivation and mobilisatlon sl~iou1dbe done before the sourceis located soas

to get the 20 per cent contribution with the local community for the facilities to be pro-vided at, the new source.

lii) The departmentshouldcreatethe facifities to the standardand maintain It for a monthto the satisfactionof the UserCommitteeand hand them over to the Committeesforfuture maintenance.

FUNDING17. There are two major componentsof expenditure:a) Initial capital expenditure thr Improving/creating the facilities aroundthe sourcemen-

tioned earlier.b) The recurring cost of operation and maintenance.18. The first item couldbe the sharedresponsibility of both the Central andStateGovern-ments’ EngineeringDepartmentand the local panchayatand beneficiary groups. It is sug-gestedthat the total capital expenditureinvolved in Improving the existingsourcesto thedesired standard referred to earlier may be worked out and maybe phasedout to be coveredthis year and the coming two years of the Eighth Plan. This expenditurecanbe sharedbe-tween Centre, State and local panchayat and user groups in the ratio of 30:30:25J5

Actions Required At The State Levels And Field Levels20 While the preparation of estimatesandplanningcould take sometime, StateGovernmentsmay straightaway initiate action in Improving the existing sourcesin all the Districts usingthe availablefunds underABWSPandMNP with them. By Initiating early action to form WateruserCommittees, the community participation andtheir contributionshouldbe ensured.21 It is requestedthat the detailed instructions based on the above guidelines may bepre-paredbothin English andin local language for implementationat the field levelby thepanchayat functionaries andthe local officersof the Engineering Department.It Is reiteratedherethat rural water supplyis oneof the Important items in the list of 29 schemesentrustedU; the panchayatsfor implementationasper the recentenactmentof the Panchayati Ra,j Act.It is also suggestedthat thIs programmefor upgradationmaybe closely monitored andre-viewedand the copiesof eachreview maybe senton a quarterly basis to theJoint SecretaryandMission Directorof the Rajiv Gandhi National Drinking WaterMission, 9th Floor,Paryavaran Bhavan, COOComplex, Lodhi Road,NewDellfi-110 003 (Fax - 4364113)by thefl)Ilvenor of the StateCommitteefor monitoring.

Minister of Rural Areas and Employment ]iO.No. 68+IVIT/M (RA&EM)96D&ed: september3, 1996 t.

DearThe Conferenceof ChiefMinistersheld on JuJy4-6, 1996,at NewDelhi recommendedthat =

high priority shouldbe given to providing safedrinking water to every personIn the countrywithin thenexttwo-threeyears.2. You are awarethat under the Rajiv Gandht NationalDrinking WaterMission (RGNDWM)such a programmeis already under implementationand it is reasonableto expectthat therewill be increasedallocationfor this programme.3. The experience,however,has beenthatwhile new assetsare created,operation& mainte-nance(O&M) has not receivedthe desiredattention.Lack of financial resources,apartfrom anumberof other factors,has led to this deficiency~4. TheEmpoweredCoimuitteeof theRG~DWMsetup undertheChairmanship of the CabinetSecretary of which the SecretaryInchargeof Rural WaterSupp]yof your State is amember,had decided that the operation and maintenance of this schemeshould be transferredto thepanchayats.The panchayatswould, however,needfinancial andother resources.I would,therefore, request that the State Finance Commissionwhich hasbeensetup underArticle243 of the Constitutionto recommenddevolutlonof resourcesto thePanchayatiRaJ Institu-tions (PRI8), should be requestedto keep this requirementin viewwhile making their recom-mendation,sothat the panchayatsare not starved of funds to ensureproperoperationandmaintenanceof theseschemes.

With regardsYours sincerely,

Subject:Identification of SC/STLocalities and Hamlets Which do not HaveDrinking Water IFacilities ~I

Under ABWSP/lvlfl Instructionsexist that harijan bastj.s with even 25 housesshould beprovidedwith separatehand pumps. It is also a part of Instruction that priority shouldbegiven to Installation of hand pumpsin harijan ba.stis. While theseare the Instructions, thereis wide belief that they are not strictly ImplementedIn practice. It is, therefore,proposedthatinstead of asking the PEEDor Water Boards for veritying thesereports,we should, throughIndependentmeans, identiflj localities andhamletsof SCs/STswhich do not havedrinkingwater facilities. This identificationcanbedoneby acommitteeto be set up under the Chair-manship of Collectorsandconsistingof l~(Fs,MLAs and socialactivistswith sympathyfor SCsISTs. In the first phase,the processof identification maybe confined to hamletsof SCs/STswithat least40 households.2. This committeecandeviseits own methodof work for identification. It can invite represen-tation from interestedgroups,voluntary agenciesthrough generaladvertisement/announce-ments throughAll India Radio andDoordarshan.It canalso visit harijan bastis and find foritself the true conditions.The committeemaybe askedto give its findings within a period ofsay onemonth. The identified locationscanalso becheckedby the District Collector3. On the basisof the reportof the Committee,if aconsolidatedproposalis sent to the Govern-mentof India, additionalCentral assistancefor Installing a handpump in all theselocationswin be issuedby the Governmentof India. The Implementationof this schemeshouldbewatchedby the sameCommittee.4. If the list of locationsIdentifiedby the Committeeis keptwith the Collector, it maybepossible,later on, to add In theseharl.jan bastis,other facilities like schools,anganwadis orother similar programmes.

SPARE PARTS ORGANISATIONSpare partsmanagementIs anIntegral part of any mechanicaloperation.These becomeparticularly critical in drilling operationsbecausethe efficiencyof the sparepartsorganisatlonhasa direct bearingon the optimum utllisatlon of the equipment.The lack ofconsumablessuchasdrilling hammersanddrifi bits during 1984 and 1985 contributedtoconsiderablerig down time. Full utilisatlon of equipmentis only possibleif the sparepartavailability Is assuredon a continuousbasis.It is, therefore,necessarythat StateGovern-mentsshouldsetup suitablesparepartsorganisatlonsandensurea proper inventorybuildup.

IMPROVEMENT OF UTILISATIONIt maybe pointed out that future allotment of UNICEF rigs wouldcertainlytakeInto accountthe utilisatlon of the existing rigs (uNICEF andStateacquiredrigs). In fact, UTNICEF mayperhapsfind It difficult to justt~jfurther Investmentin this areaunlessthereis plannedimprovementin the rig performanceandutilisatlon.

NEWINPUTSAs you are aware, therequirementof drilling rigs to achievethe decadeobjectiveof providingwater supply to the entire rural population wasassessedby aconimitteeconstitutedby theGovernmentof IncUs, andcopiesof the report havealso beenmadeavailableto the States.Thisinformation is also being utlilsed while programmingthe procurementof rigs throughUTNTLCEF However,with the passageof time andexperiencegainedfrom the newrigs deployed,there may now be a need for somespecific type of drilling equipment or somedifficulties mayhave comeup with the equipmentalreadysupplied.Detailedinformation on theseaspectsshouldbe sent to the Departmentof Rural Developmentsothat the procurementof rigs infuture couldbe suitablymodified.

UTILISATION OF OLD GENERATION RIGS -

It maybe notedthat UNICEF will not be procuringanysparepartsIn the future for the oldgenerationrigs suppliedbetween1969and 1976.It is suggestedthat the Statesmaykindlyconsiderwriting off thoserigs which are beyondeconomicrepairs,cannibalisingsomeforsparesand repairingothersby usinglocal spares(for example,Atlas CopcoIndia manufac-turesall sparesfor the Cop-4 drifi rig).

Secretary(Rural Development) ]DO.No. M-i2014/6187-RWS IDated October27,1987

Pleasefind encloseda circular for the monitoringsystemof rigs suppliedby UNICEF ownedby StateGovernmentsandalso thosewhich areoperatingundercontractorsIn the DrinkingWater rogrammes.While monitoring theperformanceof the rigs, It wasfoundthat anad-equatescientific systemof monitoringhasnot beenIntroduced at the Statelevel. This hasresultedin larger failure of boreholesandconsequentfinancial loss.Although the UNICEF proposalwas to introduce monitoring on the performanceof TJTNICEFassistedrigs, we think that you ‘will also welcomethe extensionof the samesystemto covernot only State-ownedrigs but also other rigs of privatecontractorsworkingunderPHEDe-partments.It is necessaryto fix the target for the different rigs according to the strataandworkingcondition andto monitor their performance.We proposeto send technical teamsto discusswith your officials andto observetheperfor-maiice of the drilling rigs andadvisethemto arrive at proper norms. It is possiblethat a largenumberof rigs may be of the old generation andcannotachievebreakevenpoint. We wouldlike to offer the servicesof the CentralGroundwaterBoard(CGWB) and UNICEF advisersfornecessarystepsto makethem functional. This teamcanalso adviseregardingthe rigs whicharefit to be written off.We have organisedtraining programmesfor Statepersonnelboth in geo-bydrologicalandgeophysicalexploration aswell asfor drilling techniquesthrough the CentralGroundwaterBoard, New Delhi, and the National GeophysicalResearchInstitute, Hyderabad.It is foundthat the responseis very poor. You would agreethat unlessproperly trained personnelareavailable,sophisticatedrigs will not beof much use.I would urge uponyou to advisetheSecretaries,PIlE Departments,to ensurethatanadequatenumberof personsaresenttothesetraining programmesorganisedunderTeclmolo~Mission.Besidesthe rigs underthe PILE Department,a largenumber of rigs areavailable underGroundwater Corporations/Boards andMIn~orIrrigation Departments.It would also be neces-saryfor the Statesto pool all its resourcesand to monitor themcentrally at the Statelevel toachieveoptimumperformance.Employmentof private rigs without achievingthe optimumperformanceof governmentownedrigs Is not justified.

Subject:UNICEF DevelopedComputerisedRig Monitoring Systemto be Extendedto the StateOwnedRigs and the Rigs Operatingunder Contract -

Attention is Invited to para3C re]atlng to reportsandreturnsof theguidelinesfor Implemen-tation of the AcceleratedRural WaterSupply Programme.Thesereportshave beenprescribedto enableauthorities,bothatthe Centreandthe Statelevels,to monitor the progress of theperformanceandto takeappropriatecorrectivemeasures.2. The quarterlyprogressreport which is to be submittedby the25th of the monthfollowingthe quarter,Includesareport on the utllisation of rigs in the proforma,a copyof which isenclosedasAnnexure I. Similarly, the annualreportof achievementsunderthe programmetobe furnishedby the endof May of the succeedIngyear alsoincludes performance of drillingrigs in the format, a copyof which Is given in .AnnexureII.3. It hasbeennoticed that the quarterly andannual progressreports relating to performanceof rigs arenotbeing receivedin this department.UNICEF hadalsobrought to the notice ofthis departmentthat the rigs suppliedby themto thevarious Statesare not fully utilised.4. UNiCEF has developedaRigMonitoring Systemwherebythe performanceof over a lOCUNICEF supplied,new generationdrilling rigs is closelymonitored through the useof an in-housecomputer(WANG VS-iCC). The monthly progressreport (which was carefully reviewedand thoroughly field testedin threeStates- Andlira Pradesh,OrissaandRajasthan)has

remained the only requiredentry format and forms the basis for analysing andprocessingofthe datathrough the useof computer. Fiveoutput reports are obtainedthrough the computerand thesereports are usedfor various applications. The use of thesereports is described inthe detailedchart indicating the description of the report and its use.A copy of eachreport Isattached,(Annexurem* andAnnerureW~)alongwith the monthly progressreport format5 UNICEF is now in the processof developingadecentralisedRig Monitoring Systemfor theirzoneoffices,whereby the raw datareceivedvide the monthly progressreportswould be

processedat the zonelevelby the useof IBM compatthleWANG PC units. Theseprogrammesare being developedusingthe DBASE m programme.6. As apart of UNICEF oneof the objectivesIs to further strengthenthe capacityof the coun-

cT terpart ministry/departmentin the field of rig monitoring in order to increaserig perfor-

manceand output. This would apply to both Central Government and StateGovernmentmonitoring cells.7 Recently,the CentralGovernmenthassanctionedassistancefor purchaseof rigs andotherequipmentto the droughtaffectedStates.While releasingfunds,the Ministry of FinancehasImposedcertain specific conditionsfor incurring expenditureon rigs. Theseconditions areIndicatedbelow:(a) Statewill appoint additional qualified stafffor drilling aswell as for Geophysicalexplora-

tion and suchstaff wifi be trained immediately under the Central Groundwater Board.

normal flooding of the areas,andpotential sourceof contaminatedwater in vicinity of thehand pumpsite, which flows down to the aquiferof theboreholein the absenceof propersanitarysealingaroundthe casing pipe.Efforts were,however,madeearlierin 1981-82by tThJICEFto promotethe provisioning ofsanitarysealto theborewells,but unfortunately,it was not takenup with seriousness,possi-bly dueto lack of training of the drilling crewsandsupervisorystaffandproperappreciationat appropriatelevels.It hasbeendecidedto intensiflj the training on providingsanitaryprotectionsealsto theborewellsto arrestthe flow of contaminantsto theboreholeaquifer.Accordingly, it hasbeendecidedto conducta three-daytraining programmeon All InthaBasis’ atfive differentcentresfor a groupof States,to providetraining to the trainersat thelevelof AssistantEngineers,Junior EngineersandDrillers who haveaptitudefor field work,sothat they could further provide training to the drilling crewson thefield.Thetraining will be Impartedfor threedaysof which oneday will be in the classroomandtwodaysfor actual demonstrationof providing sanitaryprotectionto theborewellsin the field.In the light of the above,it is requestedthat the namesof the officers who are associatedmthe areasof constructionof bore/tubewellsfor rural water supply,as indicatedIn theAnnexure*maykindly becommunicatedto this ministry by the 30th of this month,sothatthe training schedulescan be finalisedaccordingly.

Subject:Training on ‘SanitaryProtectionof Borewells’ For SeniorLevel Officers

The study sponsoredby UNICEF on the quality of water from handpumpborewells,wascarriedout by the regionalcentreof the National EnvironmentalEngineeringResearchInstitute (NEERI) in variousdistricts of Ra,jasthan,andit hadconfirmedbacteriologicalcontaminationof waterfrom such sources.Absenceof propersanitarysealingaround thecasingpipehasbeenidentified asthe main reasonfor suchcontamination.Incidentally,similar studies,carried out in the past In other States,hadalso indicated contaminationofwater from the bore/tubewellsdueto stagnantwater aroundthe handpumps,normal floodingof the areas,andpotential sourceof contaminatedwater in the vicinity of the handpumpsites,flowing down to the aquifersof theboreholes.Efforts were, however,madeearlierin 1981-82 by ITNICEF to promoteprovisioning of sani-tary sealto the borewells,but regrettably,thesamehasnotbeentakenup with dueserious-ness,maybedueto lack of training on the part of the drilling crewandsupervisorystaffandInsu.fficientappreciationof the matter atappropriatelevels.Smcethe matter hadassumedalarmingproportions, it has now beendecidedto conductsultabletraining programmeson thevarioustechniquesof providingappropriatesanitarysealsto the borewellsto arrest the flow of contaminantsto the groundwateraquifersthroughthe annular spacebetweencasingpipe andborehole.With the supportof the UNICEF~tosensitisetheseniorofficersat the level of ExecutiveEngineers,SuperintendentEngineersandChiefEngineerswho happento be also involvedin policy formulationson watersupply in theStates.The duration of the training coursewill be threedays,andit is proposedto cover theoreticalaspectsof sanitaryprotectionof borewellsandalsoconductpracticaldemonstrationsofproviding sanitarysealto the borewellsin the field. The training programmeswill beorganisedat five places,Bhopal, Bangalore,Dehradun,RanchiandGuwaliati.I would requestyou, that the namesof officers, who aredirectly associatedwith the field workin the areas of construction of bore/tubewells for installation of hanWpowerpumpsat thelevelsandfor the slots asindicatedin the Annexure* may kindly be conununicatedto theMission by the endof this month, for fixing the training schedules.

AttentionIs Invited to thepolicyneedmentioned on page34 ofthenewTechnolo~Missiondocumentwherementionhasbeenmadeaboutreservationof waterfor drinkingpurposesin allirrigation projects.In coordinationmeetingsof thethreeMinistriesconcernedwith water, thatis, water resources,rural develqpmentandurban development,it waspointedout thatIn spiteofwriting to the StateRuralor Urban Water SupplyDepartments, the Information regarding therequirement of total quantum of water for drinking water purposeshasnot beenIntimatedtothe StateIrrigatlonl Minor Irrigation Departments.Unlessthe requirement ofwateris projectedin designingthe irrigation project a problem would emergeat a laterstagewhen the demandfordrinking water supply would beplaced onthe system.Moreover, If theyareprojected In time Itwould bepossiblefor theIrrigation Department to dovetail the basicstructurefor the supply ofwater for which no additional costwill haveto beborne by the StateWater Supply Departmentsat present. In the NationalWaterPolicywhich is on the anvil, this ideais likely to beIncorpo-rated. This issueis particularly Important for all Stateswhich arefacingrepeateddrought condi-tions, andwhere drinking water needwould supersedeother usesof water.

Guidelines on Staffing Pattern, Recruitment Rules and Trainingetc for PersonnelEngagedon Drilling

Ground water is an assuredsourceof water supply for drinking, irrigation and otheruses.About 75 per cent of the total population of India is coveredby safedrinkingwater throughborewells.Theconstructionof suchtubewellsis likely to increasefur-ther, dueto rapid increaseofpopulations, thereby requiring deploymentofmore rigsfor tappinggroundwaterresourcesbecauseofcomparativeeaseandsp~edwith whichground water can be put to use.Sincethe newgeneration,all hydraulic operated rigs are more sophisticatedfastrigs,theserequirebetterhandsto handlethem at operationalandmanagementlevel foroptimum use.The crews operating thesecostly equipments need to be paid salary/wagescommensuratewith the Job and the equipment they handle for induction ofbetter technically qualified peopleinto thehazardousprofession.Accordingly, fol]ow-ing suggestionson staffing pattern, recruitment rules, experienceand training, etc,relevantto therecruitmentof staff for drilling programmesaremadefor information

PRACTICAL TRAININGAfter thecompletion of three months theoretical and practical lessonsin theworkshop, thetraineesshould be sent to field for work under the experienceddrillers and supervisors,whowould finally take independentshifts and operate the rig for at least three monthsWith thecompletion of six months’ course as above, the traineeswill undergo a test and onbeing successfulwill be provided with a certificate by the governmentto that effect.

AUGMENTATION OF EXISTING COURSESThe existing ITT certificate coursecan alsoprovide coachingon waterwell drilling technologywhich will be very helpful for thenew entrants to adapt to field work.Groundwaterandwaterwell drilling techniquescan be included as a subject in MechanicalEngineeringat Diploma level. Similarly for engineeringgraduates,drilling engineeringandenvironmentalsanitaryengineeringcanbeincludedasoptional subjectsin degreecourse.

Guidelinesfor Implementation of Central Rural Sanitation SProgramme, Department of Rural Development,Ministry ofAgriculture, Government of India, October 1986 5

INTRODUCTION1.1 The SeventhPlan envisagesprovision of sanitationfacilities to at least25 5per centof the rural population. Lack of proper sanitary facilities is oneof thefactors adverselyaffecting the quality of life in the rural areas.Not muchhasbeendonein thesectorsofar and at theendoftheSixth Plan only 0.72 per cent Sof therural population ha~accessto Sanitation facilities. A major effort would,therefore, be required in this sector to achieve the objectives.1.2Appreciating the needfor improving the sanitary facilities in the rural areas, 5

specially with an emphasison upholding the dignity of women, an integratedprogramme for construction of rural sanitary latrines under NREP and RLEGP Swas launchedin January1986. In addition to this, different Stateshave StateSector Programmes for improving sanitation facilities. However, theseeffortsmade through different schemeswould still be inadequate, judging from the 5magnitudeoftheproblem. Moreover, there is a needto coverother rural house-holds under the programme in addition to the ScheduledCastes/ScheduledTribes householdsfor whom schemesare taken up under theNREP/RLEGP The 5centrally sponsoredCentral Rural Sanitation Programme (CRSP) hasbeen in-troducedto supplementtheefforts ofthe States/LIEs,soas to achieveIntensive Scoverageof villageswith sanitationfacilities.

2. OBJECTWESThe CentralRural Sanitation Programme (CRSP) would supplementthe effortsmadeunder different Central and Statesectorprogrammes by providing sanita-tion facilities in the rural areas through construction of rural sanitary latrinesfor Individualhouseholdssoas to improve thequality of life in the rural areas. 5

3. STRATEGYThe aim would be to provide sanitation facilities to 25 per cent of the ruralpopulation by 1991 and the thrust would be for intensivecoverageof the vil- S

lageswith sanitationfacilities. Resourceswould beoptimallyutilisedbysimpleand low costmethods,using low costlocal materials to theextent possible.Thecommunity, specially, would be involved in theprogramme at all stages;starting 5from the formulation of the schemeto the executionand maintenanceof thesanitary latrines. This would, to a great extent, assureacceptability, correct us- S

ageand longer life of thefacilities. .

4. CRITERIA FOR IDENTIFICATION OF BENEFICIARIES UNDER THE PROGRAMME4.1The following criteria hasbeenadoptedin order ofpriority for theselectionof beneficiariesfor construction ofsanitary latrines for individual households:(i) membersbelonging to ScheduledCastesi&heduledTribes,(ii) personidentified asbelow the poverty line, and(iii) other persons.4.2 Pre’~erencewt..uld be given to:(i) fami1 esalready assistedunder Integrated Rural DevelopmentProgramme(IRDP),(ii) families identified for assistanceunder IRDP; and(iii) householdsheadedby womenmembersin eachof the abovecategories.

OF SUBSIDY(i) In the caseofthe beneficiariesbelonging to the ScheduledCastesand the

ScheduledTribes and thosebelow the povertyline, the entire costofconstruc-tion of the sanitary latrines would be met out of the resourcesunder theprogramme.(ii) In the caseof personsbelonging to other categories,part of the cost ofconstruction will be provided as subsidy and the balance amount would becontributed bythe beneficiariesout oftheir own resourcesor obtainedas loans.The executingagencyshallensuretheavailabilityof institutional financein suchcase.The extent ofsubsidyin suchcaseswill be the sameasthe prevailing Statenorms. In casetherearenoStatenorms,suitable normsmay be formulated bythe Stateswith the approval of the Central Committee on Rural Landless Em-ployment GuaranteeProgramme (RLEGP).

6. LINKAGE WITH RLEGP/NREPThe excessrequirement ofthe non-wagecomponent,if any, under Rural Land-lessEmployment GuaranteeProgramme (RLEGP) andNational Rural Employ-ment Programme (NREP) may bemet under this programme.

7. EXECUTING AGENCIESThe agencyimplementing the rural sanitation Programme under the RLEGPshall normally executethe projects under this programme in order to ensurehomogeneity in approach. Where such an agencyis not available, it will beopenfor theStateGovernmentto designateany other agencyAs far aspossiblethe individual beneficiaries should be involved in construction of their ownsanitarylatrines under the overall supervisionof the executingagencies.

17. TYPES OF SANITARY LATRINESThere are different typesofsanitary latrines — flush system,drop system,la-trines, compostlatrine. Theselectionofthe type ofsanitary latrinesshould bebasedon the habits of the community and availability of water.

18. LOCATION OF LATRINEIt is important to considerthe following points before deciding upon the loca-tion. S(I) The position of the proposedsanitary latrine in relation to the drinking wa-ter sourcesto prevent pollution of water. S(ii) The condition ofsubsoil.(iii) The proximity ofthe latrine to the house/hut.(iv) Space/landavailable to the beneficiary. S

19. MAINTENANCE 5

It is essentialto train thecommunity, particularly womenin theproper upkeepand maintenanceof the sanitation facilities provided. S

20. TRAINING S(i) Training should be imparted to the beneficiariesto enablethem to constructtheir own sanitary latrines, specially the pit for the latrines and soakpits by us-ing locally available inexpensivematerials. The training could be imparted on 5

theTRYSEM pattern.(ii) Training particularly for women,should be arranged for the maintenanceof Sthesanitation facilities provided. This may be doneunder existingprogrammesuch as DWCRA or training programmes may be organised specially for thispurpose.(iii) Voluntary organisationsshouldbe involved in trainingthecommunity,spe-cially womenin the construction,maintenanceand correctusageof thesani- Stary latrines.

21. HEALTh EDUGATIONProvisionof sanitarylatrinesfor individual householdswill not be enoughtoensuresanitaryconditionsin thevillage. It is essentialto imparthealtheduca-tion to makethe rural communityawareof the needfor practicinghygienichabits.The Nodal Departmentshould, in coordinationwith the Public Rela- Stions Departmentof the State Government,launch masscommunicationprogrammesto promotepublic healtheducation.

S4.0 PROGRAMMESThe newprogrammes are as under:a) Construction of village sanitation complex (Gram Hamam) consistingof sanitaryIa-

trines, hand pump, and biogas plant for utilising the waste.The biogas will providelight for the complexat night and alsolight the PanchayatGhar, if not electrified. Dual 5

fuel biogaspumpsetsand generatorswill be usedwhere possible.b) Construction ofexclusivecomplexesfor women,providing completefacilities for bath. S

ing, sanitation and washing,along with suchcomplexesfor menfolk, where demandcomesfrom villages. -

c) Construction ofindividual latrines in a clusterof 20 or 50 or 100 householdsin avil-lage.

d) Constructionof sanitaryindividual householdlatrinesfor weakersections— SCsandSTh andpersonsbelow the poverty line with higher quantum of subsidy (ninety fIveper cent) where demandexists.Village complexwith hamam (Baths), 15, 30, or 60 cubic metre capacitybiogasplantsdependingonsizeand geographicconsiderationsofvillage, hand pump, latrines, drain-agefacilities, etc. -

4.1 The first schemeinvolvesconstruction of sanitarycomplexesin villages where thereare adequatearrangementsfor maintenanceofsuch facilities by the panchayats.The - -

proposed sanitary latrine complex will have bathing facilities and an attached biogasplant and conversionequipment for utilising the waste.The estimated cost of eachcomplexwill be Rs 3 lakhs excluding the cost of Rs 2 lakh for biogasplant andassoci-atedsystems.The costofcomplexwill bemet by the Central Government, StateGov-ernment and the panchayatson a sharing basis of 3:2:1.

6.0 EXECUTING AGENCIESThe agencyimplementingtherural sanitationprogrammeundertheJRY shall normallyex-ecutetheprojects under this programme in order to ensurehomogeneityin approach.Wheresuch an agencyis notavailable, it will beopento theStateGovernment to designateanyotheragency.As far as possiblethe individual beneficiaries should be involved in construction oftheir own sanitary latrines under theoverall supervisionofthe executingagencies.

7.0 SELECTION OF VILLAGES S

The selectionof thevillages to be taken up for intensive coverageshould be on the basisofthe following criteria: - -

i. availability of adequatewater supply to support the provision of sanitary latrines;ii. those villages which have been or are proposed to be taken up for the construction ofsanitarylatrinesfor ScheduledCastesandScheduledTribes;iii thosevillages in which construction of sanitary latrines havealready beentaken up underother programmes. -

8.0 CRITERIA FOR ALLOCATION OF CENTRAL ASSISTANCE TO STATES8.1 - (i) Funds available under annual plan will beallocatedto the States/UThin accordance

with following formula:a) 50 per centweightagebeing given to incidenceof poverty in States/UT~b) 40 per cent being to rural population;c) 10 percentweightagebeinggiv~nto therecognisedhill Statesand hilly areason thebasisof their population.Within the allocated funds to the States/Un,up to 20 per cent will be earmarked toprovide sanitation facilities to SCs/S~and personsbelowpoverty line dependingupontheir felt needsand response.However, if there is inadequateresponsefrom theweakersections,the earmarked funds would be utilised for the generalpublic.

9.0 RELEASEOF FUNDS9.1 The expenditure under the programme shall be borne by the Government of India

fully except for the beneficiary’s contribution, if any. The Central assistanceshall bereleasedto theStates/IJTh in installments subject to the following conditions:a) utihisationof at least50 percentofresourcesavailable with States/U1~beforereleaseof third installment;b) utilisation of at least 35 per centof annual allocation by Septemberof the financialyearunlessa particularState/UTtakesprior approvalofCentralGovernment;c) receipt of prescribedreports and returns; andd) any other condiçionsthat maybe prescribed from time to time.

9~2 While releasingthe Central assistancethe quantum of unutilised fundsavailablewiththeStates,UI~in relation to total allocationfor theyear shallbe kept in view. Normally,

a carry-over of funds to the extent of 25 per cent of total allocation for theyear will be• allowed.• 9.3 The States/[JTs shall have to releasetheentire amount of Central assistanceprovided to

them to the executingagenciesimmediately without delay.• 9.4 The Central assistancewill be releasedto StateGovernment on receipt of a certificate• that thepanchayatshave raised/depositedtheir contribution/share.

9.5 The implementation of the programme will be reviewed by the Department of Rural• DevelopmentasNodal Department on quarterly basis.The Stateswhich are not in a

- position to utilise their allocatedamount will be informed that the balance of theallo-S catedamount will be shifted to other Stateswhich achievebetter resultsand showbet-• ter demand for construction ofvillage complexeslindividual householdlatrines in clus-

ters.• 9.6 The Departmentof Rural Developmentwill explore the possibility of raising soft loans

from financial institutionswhich canbegivento thepanchayatsfor financingtheircon-• tribution/share of the cost of construction of individual household latrines as well as• village complexes.Linkageswill beestablishedwith lED programme, district building

programmes (IEC) to generatedemand for rural sanitation particularly through the tar-• get audienceof women and youth, primary middle and high schoolsis an important

elementof the programme. Individual motivation for sanitation is the most important• factor for successof thelatrine construction programme.

5 10.0 DESIGN CRITERIA -~ - - -

SSanitarylatrines would be constructed for individual households.One sanitary latrine wouldnormally caterto a family of six members.Emphasiswill be given to the useof low costmated-

• als to theextent possiblethe ceiling of cost,pattern and extentof subsidy,designand specifica-tions will be approved by the State Government as in the caseof sanitary latrine constructed
