INTRODUCTION
• National Ganga River Basin Authority (NGRBA) has taken up projects
for “Mission Clean Ganga” under which no untreated municipal
sewage or industrial effluent would be allowed to be discharged into
the river Ganga by the year 2020.
• NGRBA Objective - to provide integrated sewerage system for
collection of sewage and providing STP for treatment before
discharging sewage into River Ganga and preventing pollution of river
Ganges and for sustainable development of surrounding areas.
• NGRBA has taken up sewerage project initially in Allahabad & Kanpur
cities.
• Tata Consulting Engineers Ltd. was awarded Consultancy Services for
“Technical Review, Financial Analysis and Preparation of Bid
Documents of projects under NGRBA for Kanpur District- I &
Allahabad District- A and District- C sewerage system” in November
2011.

PROJECT DETAILS
 Kanpur is the biggest city of the State of Uttar Pradesh and is main centre
of commercial and industrial activities.
 Kanpur city population - 29.42 lakhs (2011).
 It is administratively divided into 6 zones and 110 wards.
 As per Master Plan report, Kanpur city is divided into four sewerage
districts from I to IV.
 In District-I, about 70% area is sewered and remaining 30% is un-
sewered. Area is 33.20 km2 and has 34 wards.
 In unsewered area, local residents have own arrangement with septic
tanks and the effluent is discharged into nearby drains/nala which finally
discharged into river Ganga.
 District-I have 25 wards in old city (inner old area) and 9 wards in north-
east area and is situated on right bank of river Ganga which is mainly
residential area & famous for commercial centre and reputed institutes.

PROJECT DETAILS – SUB PROJECT AREA
 11 wards of District –I are having narrow streets and busy and
congested area.
 106km of existing sewers. Most of the existing sewers are RCC Pipes.
Large sized sewers are of Brick Masonry egg shaped sewer.
 Sewage from 11 wards is proposed to be connected to trunk sewers
located along the Mall Road (Parade-Bada chauraha-Phool Bagh road)
and leading to Jajmau STP.
 Old trunk sewer (1000 mm dia) and another new trunk sewer (1000mm-
1200mm-1400mm dia) along Mall Road.
 Due to already defined invert levels of existing trunk sewers, the efforts
made for connecting sewers of 11 wards by gravity to existing trunk
sewers.
 Sewer network was optimized using software with minimum pumping
station and avoiding deep excavation. Hydraulic design of sewers is
done using SewerCAD software.

PROJECT DETAILS
 Sewage Pumping Station has been proposed near Chacha Nehru
Hospital to avoid the deep sewer excavations in downstream area.
 There is a local depression in Patkapur area, where ground levels
are in the range of 119.75 to 122.00m compared to surrounding
ground levels of 124.00m. Lift Station is proposed to pump sewage
to nearby outfall.
 For utilisation of existing sewers in project area, extensive survey
and data collection was carried out in the field to assess the
condition of sewers.
 Interacted with ULBs for required information such as sewer
collapse, choking, overflow, etc. and verified existing alignment at
site and its connectivity.

SURVEY OF EXISTING SEWERS
Physical survey was done for obtaining details of existing sewers. The sewer
condition (including manholes) were observed physically by opening
manholes.

12. CONSULTING ENGINEERS LIMITED
PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS
 Existing sewers which were in good condition and laid within past
15-20 years, are utilized in overall planning and designing for next
30 years horizon.
 Silted sewers which are in good condition are proposed to be
used after desilting.
 Heavily silted sewers are being discarded.
 Sewers of 400mm dia. and above sizes are proposed for internal
lining by rehabilitation techniques.
 GRP slip lining for egg-shaped sewers
 Polyurea coating for circular sewers
 Trenchless technology for laying of new sewers in busy road
crossings and speedy execution
 At narrow streets, the use of HDPE pipes and pre-cast RCC
manholes is proposed to speed up the work.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS
 During execution stage, Contractor shall first have to carry out
detailed condition assessment survey for sewers and obtain
concurrence regarding their utilization from the Department.
 Egg-shaped brick sewers are proposed to be rehabilitated with
GRP segment pipes. For this, the Contractor will require to carry
out CCTV survey, submit the assessment report and provide GRP
segment lining for identified stretches.
 Similarly, for circular sewers the Contractor will require to carry
out CCTV Survey, submit the assessment report and provide
polyurea coating for identified stretches.
 Wherever, existing sewers are to be replaced by new sewers, the
existing system will continue to operate by sequential construction
program and temporary pumping so as to minimize the
inconvenience to users.
