Storm Water Drains

 

Strom water drains

Sivakasi has an effective network of storm water drains with a length of 85.87 Km. The entire network in the town is “Pucca type” (However it is broken at several places). All the storm water drains discharge in to the Sirukulam and Periyakulam tanks. Due to garbage dumping, and encroachments along and across the drains, free flow in the drains is affected resulting in blockage and stagnation of water. Most of storm water drains carry sewage. Absence of safe collection, treatment and disposal system for sewage adversely affects the environments of the town. This problem will grow with further growth in population. In order to improve the preparation of DPR for Under ground sewerage in Sivakasi Municipality.
