The “water positive” goes beyond the concept of net-zero water usage. It aims to return more water to freshwater sources than is withdrawn. Being water positive involves actively contributing to water conservation and replenishment. Companies and organizations that adopt water-positive practices take steps to minimize their water footprint and actively replenish water resources. This commitment helps address environmental and climate concerns related to water scarcity and quality

Water audit is a systematic process of objectively obtaining a water balance by measuring flow of water from the site of water withdrawal or treatment, through the distribution system, and into areas where it is used and finally discharged. Conducting a water audit involves calculating water balance, water use and identifying ways for saving water. Water audit involves preliminary water survey and detailed water audit. Preliminary water survey is conducted to collect background information regarding plant activities, water consumption and water discharge pattern and water billing, rates and water cess. After the analysis of the secondary data collected from the industry, detailed water audit is conducted, which involves the following steps:  On site training and discussion with facility manager and personnel  Water system analysis  Quantification of baseline water map  Monitoring and measurements using pressure and flow meters and various other devices  Quantification of inefficiencies and leaks  Quantification of water quality loads and discharges  Quantification of variability in flows and quality parameters  Strategies for water treatment and reuse or direct use A detailed water balance is finally developed. Water quality requirement at various user areas is mapped, which helps in developing „recycle‟ and „reuse‟ opportunities. The detailed water audit report contains the following:  Water consumption and wastewater generation pattern  Specific water use and conservation  Complete water balance of the facility  Water saving opportunities  Method of implementing the proposals  Full description and figures  Investment required Industries can undertake following measures for water conservation:  Setting up of norms for water budgeting  Modernization of industrial process to reduce water consumption  Recycling water with a re-circulating cooling system  Ozonation cooling water approach which can result in five fold reduction in blow down when compared to traditional chemical treatment  Reduction in reuse of de-ionized water by eliminating some plenum flushes, converting from a continuous flow to an intermittent flow system and improving control on the use  Use of wastewater for use of gardening  Proper processing of effluents to adhere to the norms of disposal.

CGWA Clearance Central Ground Water Board (CGWB) . Statement indicating position of pending cases received for NOC for ground water withdrawal. Statement showing list of project proposals to whom NOC for ground water withdrawal has been issued. The annual replenishable ground water resources availability plays an important role in defining the guidelines. The latest assessment of the state wise ground water resources as on 31.03.2009 is available at the Central Ground Water Board . As per the ground water resource estimates of 2009, out of the 5842 assessment units (Blocks, Mandals, Talukas, districts), 802 over-exploited units, 169 critical units, 523 semi-critical units, 4277 safe units and 71 saline units have been identified across the country by Central Ground Water Board. The Annual replenishable ground water resources have been estimated as 431 Billion Cubic Meters (bcm). The Net Ground Water Availability is 396 bcm and the overall stage of ground water development of the country is 61%. Therefore, prior permission/NOC from CGWA has to be obtained before construction of any Groundwater abstraction structure viz. Tube wells, Bore wells, Dug wells etc. Allegiance can offers its client the following services: Examining the area of the groundwater against availability Water requirement Availability of aquifer A Shallow aquifer B Deeper aquifer Status of the groundwater development of the area Preparation of proposal for augmentation of groundwater abstraction Preparation and implementation of water conservation measures Facilitation for obtaining NOC from CGWA, New Delhi
