Problems and factors which retard the development and the utilization of groundwater for drinking purposes in the Khartoum state-SUDAN
The annual municipal water consumption in the Khartoum State is half milliard cubic meters from the River Nile plants and the drilled water supply wells.Sixty percent of this amount is derived from the groundwater sources.Examination of the drilling recorded data of over 2000 wells distributed all over the Khartoum state and enhanced by a review of the previous groundwater studies has indicated that the factors and problems which retarded the best utilization and management of groundwater for drinking water purposes in the state fall into five aspects.These are the geological control, water quality constrain, pollution hazard, technical factors and the absence of groundwater monitoring data.This paper suggests possible solutions, recommendations and mitigations to overcome these problems such as (1)Transfer of water from nearby freshwater sources to villages which lack completely ground water or contain bad quality.(2)Construction of proper sewerage system with proper and adequate and save treatment in order to evade construction of latrine pits and septic tanks which usually result in the pollution of the groundwater reservoirs.(3)Technical Supervision of well drilling specification in the Khartoum state by the concerned ministry.(4) Establishment of a network of monitoring system for the water level and the water quality of groundwater especially near the large diameter and high capacity emergence production wells which were recently drilled in the Khartoum state.
