Ground Water Seepage Solutions in Odisha

Ground Water Company, we specialize in ground water Seepage  solutions tailored for Odisha’s environmental challenges. From the dry uplands of Western Odisha to the flood-prone coastal belt, we understand the region-specific water stress Odisha faces. Our mission is to revive groundwater levels, strengthen water security, and build climate resilience across the state.

Key Ground Water Seepage Challenges in Odisha

1. Seepage in Irrigation Canals (Western & Coastal Odisha)

  • In districts like Bargarh, Sambalpur, and Kendrapara, unlined irrigation canals lead to excessive seepage into porous soil.
  • This reduces water reaching downstream farms, leading to crop water stress and inefficient irrigation.
  • Traditional canal systems, especially in delta regions, worsen this issue during peak summer.

2. Water Loss in Ponds and Tanks (Rural & Tribal Belts)

  • Odisha has thousands of community tanks and ponds in districts like Koraput, Malkangiri, and Kandhamal, but many face underground seepage through fractured rock beds.
  • Poor maintenance and lack of seepage control lining cause these resources to dry up faster than expected.

3. Groundwater Seepage in Mining Zones (Angul, Keonjhar, Talcher)

  • In coal and iron ore mining belts, groundwater seeps into mines, requiring continuous pumping and leading to groundwater depletion.
  • This also increases treatment costs and risk of aquifer contamination.

4. Foundation & Basement Seepage in Urban Areas

  • Cities like Bhubaneswar and Cuttack face issues of groundwater seepage into building basements, damaging infrastructure and increasing repair costs.
  • Rising water tables during monsoons exacerbate the problem in low-lying urban zones.

Our Ground Water Seepage Solutions for Odisha

✅ Canal and Water Body Lining

  • Use of geo-membranes, bentonite clay linings, and cement mortar plastering for canals and reservoirs.
  • Effective in reducing seepage in irrigation canals of Bargarh, Jajpur, and Nayagarh.

✅ Seepage Control in Mines and Industrial Zones

  • Grouting, sealing of fractures, and pumping system optimization to reduce water ingress in mines.
  • Customized solutions for open-pit and underground mines in Keonjhar, Talcher, and Jharsuguda.

✅ Ground Water Flow Mapping

  • Use of geophysical tools and seepage analysis to identify hidden leakage pathways.
  • Mapping natural fractures in rocky areas of Kandhamal, Koraput, and Rayagada to control seepage in tanks and wells.

✅ Urban Basement and Structure Protection

  • Sub-soil drainage systems, waterproofing membranes, and barrier walls to control seepage in building foundations in cities like Bhubaneswar, Cuttack, and Berhampur.

Why Odisha Needs Effective Seepage Control

  • To preserve valuable irrigation water in canal-dependent regions.
  • To increase the lifespan of rural ponds, tanks, and reservoirs.
  • To cut water treatment and pumping costs in mining areas.
  • To protect infrastructure from water damage and maintain building integrity.
  • To enhance overall groundwater sustainability and reduce unintended losses.
