Today is World Water Resources Day. This year, the main theme of the Water Day is groundwater. In Tatarstan, the first field work on the revision of water intake wells for economic and drinking purposes of rural settlements will begin in the near future. The list of districts includes Arsky, Atninsky, Baltasinsky, Verkhneuslonsky, Vysokogorsky, Zelenodolsky, Kukmorsky, Laishevsky, Pestrechinsky, Rybno-Slobodsky, Sabinsky and Tyulyachinsky. The main tasks during the audit are to determine the availability of drinking water sources in rural settlements, assessment of the technical condition of water intake wells (springs), availability of documentation, assessment of the hydrochemical composition of the extracted water. The result of the work will be recommendations necessary to provide the population of rural settlements with high-quality drinking water from underground sources and springs. The audit of the remaining municipal districts is planned to be carried out in 2023-2024. Let us recall that in 2021, as a pilot project, a survey of the Kaibitsky and Apastovsky districts was conducted in order to objectively assess the real situation regarding the technical and sanitary condition of water intakes and the quality of drinking water.
