Hilden Project
13 April 2010 | by Auroville Water Harvest
Tags: check dams rain water catchment saltwater intrusion hydrology recharge ponds rainwater harvesting
From 2006 to 2008 Harvest worked on the Hilden project. Two objectives of this projects were to improve the irrigation capacity of dry land farmers by constructing series of check dams and to recharge the ground water by storage in the ponds and minimize the ground water depletion. To reach those objective check dams, recharge ponds, recharge wells, observation wells, and sand filters have been put into place.
