At Ground Water Company, we offer expert Ground Water and Hydrological Consulting Services tailored to the unique geography and hydro-geological conditions of Uttarakhand. With a deep understanding of Himalayan terrains, aquifer behavior, and watershed systems, we provide practical and sustainable water management solutions that serve both development and environmental needs.
🌧️ Why Uttarakhand Needs Ground Water & Hydrological Expertise
Uttarakhand’s fragile ecology, steep slopes, high rainfall variability, and population pressure make water management incredibly complex. While some areas suffer from scarcity, others are prone to flooding, runoff, or contamination.
Our consulting services help local governments, private developers, NGOs, and communities manage these issues with precision and foresight.
⚠️ Local Water Challenges in Uttarakhand
🚱 Seasonal Water Scarcity
- Villages in districts like Pauri, Almora, and Tehri often run dry in summer due to shallow or drying aquifers.
- Spring-fed systems are declining rapidly due to land use change and climate stress.
🕳️ Groundwater Depletion & Poor Recharge
- Over-extraction and poor recharge are common in Doon Valley and lower hill towns like Haldwani and Ramnagar.
- Unplanned borewells are drying fast due to lack of proper hydrogeological planning.
💧 Contamination in Drinking Water
- Natural leaching of heavy metals, especially iron and fluoride, in parts of Pithoragarh and Bageshwar.
- Septic tank leakage and runoff mixing with springs in populated hill towns.
🌊 Surface Water Mismanagement
- Poor catchment planning leads to excess runoff, loss of rainwater, and erosion.
- Unscientific diversion of streams and nallahs affects recharge and downstream supply.
