Background Central Government constituted the Central Ground Water Authority (hereinafter referred to as the Authority) vide notification Number S.O. 38(E), dated 14th January, 1997, followed by notification number S.O. 1124(E) dated 6th November, 2000 and S.O. 1121 (E) dated 13th May, 2010 of the Government of India in the Ministry of Environment & Forests, for the purposes of regulation and control of ground water development and management in the whole of India and to issue necessary regulatory directions. The Ministry of Jal Shakti has issued ‘Guidelines to control and regulate ground water extraction in India’ vide notification number S.O. 3289(E) dated 24th September, 2020, notified by Department of Water Resources, River Development and Ganga Rejuvenation, Ministry of Jal Shakti, wherein Paragraph 4.1 (iii) provided that “All industries abstracting ground water in excess of 100 m3/d shall be required to undertake annual water audit through Confederation of Indian Industries (CII)/ Federation Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (FICCI)/ National Productivity Council (NPC) certified auditors and submit audit reports within three months of completion of the same to CGWA. All such industries shall be required to reduce their ground water use by at least 20% over the next three years through appropriate means.” 2. Applicability of Water audit Amendment Notification dated 29.03.2023 has been further issued by Ministry of Jal Shakti, published in the Gazette of India, Extraordinary, Part II, section 3, sub- section (ii), vide Notification number S.O. 1509 (E), wherein Paragraph 5(i) provides the amendment of the above provision as ‘All industries abstracting ground water in excess of 100 m3/day shall be required to undertake biennial (once in two years) water audit through certified auditors of agencies as approved by CGWA and submit audit reports within three months of completion of the same to CGWA. Compliance of the कें द्रीय भूक्तम जल प्राक्तधकरण, नई ददल्ली Central Ground Water Authority, New Delhi 1  SOP for Preparation of Water Audit Report and its Evaluation Criteria, August 2024 earlier given reports may be checked by certified water auditors after one year and the report in this regard may be shared with CGWA. All such industries shall be required to reduce their ground water use by at least 20% over the next three years through appropriate means.’ As per the approval from the Ministry of Jal Shakti, Govt of India, vide letter No. T-81011/53/2022-GW Section-MOWR dated 27.09.2022, entrusted Rajiv Gandhi National Ground Water and Training Institute (RGNGWTRI), Naya Raipur, Chhattisgarh in collaboration with National Water Academy (NWA), Pune, Maharashtra to conduct training certificate course. The submission of ‘Water Audit Report’ is applicable to all industries abstracting ground water in excess of 100 m3/day and shall be required to undertake biennial (once in two years) water audit. 3. Need for SOP: It is observed that the report submitted by the Water Auditors has varied topics and needs revision in terms of recommendation as per the Notified guidelines. To standardize the water audit report as per the compliance of the NOC and to rationalize the need of Water Auditing, the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for Preparation of Water Audit Report is developed. It also contains the Evaluation Criteria and applicability of Water Audit Report.
