Towards Groundwater Management:<br />
Sustainability <strong>of</strong> As-free water supply?<br />
Apply Calibrated Model to<br />
evaluate alternative pumping schemes<br />
– Criteria<br />
• location <strong>of</strong> recharge (arsenic-free area?)<br />
• travel time (if from arsenic area)<br />
– 3 Pumping schemes<br />
• All Shallow (actual state)<br />
• All <strong>Deep</strong> (current management direction)<br />
• Shallow Irrigation Pumping, <strong>Deep</strong> Domestic Pumping

Conclusions<br />
♦ Management <strong>of</strong> arsenic rich groundwater is a big challenge<br />
for Bangladesh;<br />
♦ Groundwater has been the major source <strong>of</strong> safe drinking<br />
water <strong>and</strong> irrigation; would remain so in the coming years;<br />
♦ Proper groundwater management is needed along with<br />
national water quality monitoring <strong>and</strong> surveillance;<br />
♦ Concepts <strong>of</strong> safe drinking water rather than arsenic safe<br />
drinking water has to be adopted;<br />
♦ While introducing a new source,care should be taken to avoid<br />
possible risk substitution;<br />
♦ Arsenic mitigation should be made part <strong>of</strong> the overall water<br />
resources management;<br />
♦ Capacity building at local, regional <strong>and</strong> national scale.
