Implementation of Aquifer Level Ground Water Management Project in
Seven districts of Maharashtra

1. Background:
The Government of Maharashtra is implementing the Maharashtra Rural Water Supply and
Sanitation Sector Improvement Program “Jalswarajya-II (JS-II)” since March 2014.The
project development objective is to improve the performance of Maharashtra’s sector
institutions in planning, implementation and monitoring of its RWSS program and to improve
access to quality and sustainable services in peri-urban villages, and in water–stressed and
water quality-affected areas.

Ground Water Survey and Development Agency (GSDA) is one of the key state level
institutions for implementing this project. To fulfill the project objectives, GSDA started
implementation of six different activities under JS-II project. The implementation of Aquifer
level groundwater management project is one of the key activities. JS-II proposes to
implement this project in 97 villages from 12 watersheds in seven districts (Ahmednager,
Amravati, Aurangabad, Buldhana, Pune, Satara and Jalgaon).

At this stage, GSDA has decided to work in selected 97 villages from 12 watersheds in
above 7 districts and initiated community mobilization; Ground Water Management
Association (GWMA) registration and DPR preparation work with assistance of Support
Organization (SOs). Currently seven SOs are extending support to GSDA for implementing
the project in seven districts along with Zilla Parishad (ZP), Minor Irrigation Division (MID)
and Agriculture Department. The overall objective of Aquifer Level Groundwater
Management initiative is to make the groundwater resource sustainable so as to enhance
the sustainability of groundwater based drinking water sources by implementing various
conventional & unconventional measures and demand side management interventions
through community involvement.

Considering the project spread, quantum of work and expected results, providing technical
and process management support to the facilitator / implementers, as well as decision
makers at the state levels is equally important. This will help in streamlining the project work
and timely completion of project implementation work. Accordingly, Reform Support and
Project management Unit (RSPMU) has decided to hire services of Project Management
Consultant having experience of delivering similar services.

The RSPMU hereby invites proposal from the State/ Principal Key Resource Centers (P-
KRCs),empanelled by Water Supply and Sanitation Department, Government of
