Regional hydrogeology of the Tendong Hills and a rapid hydrogeological assessment for Kitam
The report discusses the complex hydrogeological dynamics of the Tendong Hills and Kitam area in Sikkim, highlighting the interplay of diverse rock types and structures that influence the region's aquifers and spring systems. It emphasizes the importance of incorporating geological insights into watershed and spring development programs to enhance water security, especially in light of climate change and human activities. ACWADAM is actively involved in developing hydrogeologically informed recharge strategies for springs in these areas, aiming to improve water management and community capacity building. The report also outlines specific recharge areas and spring characteristics, underscoring the need for careful monitoring and management to ensure sustainable water supply.
