Description
-
The report presents a hydrogeology-based management plan for springs in Khar, Darchula District, Nepal, focusing on the Dallekh-Sundamunda springshed. It identifies 48 springs, emphasizing their dependence on geological features, such as slates and fractures, for groundwater movement and accumulation. To enhance water availability, the report recommends targeted recharge measures, like constructing contour trenches and check-dams, particularly in areas with dense vegetation and agricultural land. The study highlights the need for ongoing data collection, geological assessments of additional springs, and training local residents in groundwater management practices.
