MESSAGE
Ground water utilization has increased significantly during the last two decades. The unplanned and indiscriminate use of this vital resource has resulted in declining water levels and water quality deterioration in certain areas. The apparent stress on ground water resources is more often a management issue, and this needs to be addressed in a holistic manner, for its long term sustainability, through an integrated approach. Aquifer mapping is an essential step towards the effective management of ground water resources. The atlas entitled “Aquifer Systems of Himachal Pradesh” is a step towards achieving the ultimate goal of aquifer wise management of ground water resources in Himachal Pradesh State.
l congratulate Central Ground Water Board, Ministry of Water Resources for its efforts to bring out this document containing data and information pertaining to various aspects of ground water including aquifer disposition in the State. I am sure this atlas will be of immense use to planners, policy makers, researchers and users involved in ground water sector.

Foreword
Availability of fresh water has always been a prime consideration in fostering the socio economic
growth of the people. Rapid urbanization coupled with industrialization has resulted in increased
demand of ground water at an alarming rate. Dependence on ground water is increasing
continuously in order to supplement the domestic, agricultural and industrial requirements. In the
last two decades there is a paradigm from development to management of Ground Water. The
management of ground water is to be focussed on aquifers, which act as the repository of ground
water.
To meet these challenges, it has become imperative to formulate aquifer management plan to
establish the priorities for ground water use with community involvement at various levels of
implementation. Central Ground Water Board over the years has generated enormous data on
various aspects of ground water and has been utilised to prepare aquifer maps depicting their
extent and characteristics and are compiled in the form of Atlas on “Aquifer Systems of Himachal
Pradesh”.
This will provide a framework for prioritizing the aquifer level management strategies and build
inventory of the aquifers for better understanding of the groundwater resources. An attempt has
been made to present various aquifer systems in the form of maps by integrating all thematic
information to formulate the aquifer wise ground water management plans.
The sincere efforts of the dedicated team of officers of Central Ground Water Board, North
Himalayan Region, Dharamshala is highly appreciated. I am sure this atlas would be of immense
use in formulating scientifically viable implementable strategies for efficient management of ground
water resources ensuring sustainability.

Preamble
Himachal Pradesh is one of the hilly State in Himalayan Region with a
geographical area of 55673 sq.km. The population of the State is 6.6 mil-
lion, out of which 90 percent resides in rural areas. The high and rugged
mountain ranges are thinly populated and valley areas are densely popu-
lated. Ground water irrigation through bore wells is confined to valley
areas with a limited use of lifi/tank irrigation. The main crop in the State
is grown during the Kharif season and commercial crops such as apple,
mango, litchi and flowers are grown during the other seasons. Fish and
prawn farming are also popular in the State.
The average annual rainfall for the State is l490 mm spreading over 65
rainy days. Lahaul & Spiti receives lowest rainfall (450 mm) and
Dharamshala of Kangra district receives highest rainfall of 3000 mm.
Snowfall occurs at higher elevations in Chamba, Shimla and Kinnaur dis-
tricts. Geomorphologically, Himachal Region is an integrate mosaic of
mountain ranges, hills and valleys having elevation upto 6500 m. The
major mountain ranges fall under Dhauladhar ranges in Kangra district
and Pir Panjal, Great Himalaya and Zanskar ranges in Lahaul Spiti Dis-
trict.
Chenab, Ravi, Beas, Satluj and Yamuna rivers drain the State with differ-
ent size of catchment. Govind Sagar, Pong dam and Pandoh dam are the
major water storage reservoirs in the State. In addition, there are 66 major
lakes in the State which are being used for irrigation, domestic needs and
ground water recharge. Structurally controlled springs of Himachal Pra-
desh are the major source for drinking water supply especially in hilly
districts. More than 500 springs are tapped by district authorities for
drinking purpose and for bottling of mineral water. The major glaciers of
the State are Barashingi, Chandra, Badal, Bhaga and Keylong.
Geologically, the State is underlained by un-consolidated to consolidated
rock formations of Archaen age to Recent age. The Recent alluvial de-
posits occupies the valley fills/ river courses and Tertiaries of Siwaliks &
ciystallines of Archaen occupies the Higher elevations. CGWB has con-
structed l82 exploratory wells down to 300m depth in the Alluvial and
Sandstone aquifers. The discharges of tube wells varies generally from
100 lpm to 1000 lpm and at places goes to 3000 lpm.
Irrigation and Public health department, Govt. of HP has drilled 30,000
bore wells upto maximum depth 90 m in different parts of the State, and
hand pumps/power pumps has been installed for domestic uses. About
1596 tube wells were constructed for public utility particularly for irriga-
tion and domestic uses by same agencies.
The analysis of the exploratory wells data indicate that in Una, Nallagarh
and Indaura valleys granular zones are limited to 150 m depth. Ground
Water in the State is being monitored four timesa year through network

Increased thrust on Ground Water usage, ex-
Data gaps identification on proposed grid at
1:50,000 map using DGPS survey / orthograph-
pected demands from various sectors Vis— Vis re-
source availability calls for paradigm shift in wa
management practices. Isolated approach has
been promulgated by various departments, aca-
demia, NGOs and Vos for water management.
There is need to synergize the efforts made by
various stakeholders and develop a manageme
frame work for sustenance of this resource using
multidisciplinary approach.
The present endeavor of delineation of the aqui-
fers on 1:250,000 scale is a proactive approach
tegrating available data of CGWB and other agen-
ic data of the Remote Sensing.
tel . Taking up hydrogeological / Hydrochemical/
geophysical studies and wells construction de-
tails at gaps sites.
. In valleys areas, three dimensional conceptual
model of the area along with isopach, thick-
ness of saturation zones, thickness of weath-
nt ered zones, thickness of valley fills and depth
of valley floor etc may be prepared .
. In the Hilly areas studies may be taken using
non-conventional techniques such as remote
sensing with limited field checks. The mapping
in- of the springs and their springsheds along with
their pereniality and discharges can be taken
up for improvement of discharges and sustain-
cies. This has helped in development of a synop-
tic view of aquifers and preparation of aquifer
wise management plan. Since, ground water is
being developed locally by community/
individually, there is need to delineate local aqui-
fers on larger scale and establish their potentia
This compilation will form base for detailed aqui-
fers mapping at 1:50,000 or larger scales. Fur-
ability.
. Preparation of Aquifer Management Plan after
delineation of Surplus Resource Areas, GW Re-
sources depleting and water scarce areas, Spe-
cial industrial zones, Water intensive crop are-
as, Recreation activities etc.
l.
. Demarcation of Aquifer for remediation, aqui-
fers needed regulation and ares for spring-
sheds development.
ther, to achieve the objectives of the National Aq-
uifer Mapping Program proposed during 12th
Five Year Plan, the following road map is envis-
aged :-
. The aquifer maps presented in the atlas on t
1:250,000 scale will form the base of the de-
tailed aquifer mapping to be taken up on
1:50,000 scale.
. Defining priority areas on the basis of water
management issues of the state .
Defining grid size and depth of drilling up to
which data is to be collected. “
The data collected through these studies need to
be integrated in GIS format and fed in to numeri-
cal models to simulate present and future scenar-
io for suggesting optimal water utilization strate-
he gies. The model out put need to be shared with
stakeholders for participatory management of the
ground water resources at village level and reori-
entation of the water utilization pattern of the area.
