July 2006 - The Hindu : Karnataka / Bangalore News : New layouts to have dual water supply system

The Hindu : Karnataka / Bangalore News : New layouts to have dual water supply system: "

To ensure use of recycled water and prevent over-exploitation of ground water, Bangalore Water Supply and Sewerage Board (BWSSB) has drawn up a plan to put in place a dual water supply system in all new layouts and apartment complexes coming up in the city.

The new system will have two water lines — one for potable water and the other for recycled water.

BWSSB officials are working on a proposal to set up a committee to monitor the implementation of such a system in new buildings.

It is also thinking of involving all the other service providers, including the Bangalore Mahanagara Palike (BMP) and the State Pollution Control Board, in this endeavour, according to the officials.

To start with, BWSSB has asked the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) to set up a dual water supply system in all its new layouts.
