NMMC mandates use of tertiary treated recycled water for construction projects.

The Regulation

In a major step towards water conservation, the Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation (NMMC) has made it mandatory for developers to use tertiary treated recycled water in all construction projects approved by the Town Planning Department.

The initiative aims to curb the rising demand for potable water as the city grapples with declining rainfall and increasing concerns over water scarcity. With several redevelopment projects underway, the consumption of drinking water for construction has surged, putting additional strain on resources.

To address this, NMMC is leveraging its advanced sewage treatment infrastructure. The city currently operates seven sewage treatment plants using Sequential Batch Reactor (SBR) technology. Additionally, tertiary treatment plants at Koparkhairane and Airoli utilize Ultra Filtration and Ultraviolet-Based Technology to further purify secondary treated water. This recycled water is already being supplied to industrial establishments in the Maharashtra Industrial Development Corporation (MIDC) area for non-potable use.

By enforcing the use of recycled water in construction, NMMC aims to reduce reliance on drinking water and promote sustainability. This regulation is expected to play a crucial role in preserving Navi Mumbai’s water resources for the future while ensuring responsible urban development.
