Abstract:

About14 water samples have been collected from 10 different locations to know the status of the ground water quality in and around Cuddalore, Cuddalor district, Tamilnadu. The collected water samples were chemically analyzed by adopting standard procedures and the results were run into HYCH software to classify the water. The results show that whether it is shallow or deep aquifer systems the salt concentrations are increasing during post-monsoon period due to leaching of salts from the surrounding rocks.The deep aquifer water quality is better and its water quality parameters were within the permissible limits of WHO standard. It is suggested that the utilization of deepaquifer water is better than using shallow aquifer water to meet the water demand of people living in and around the Cuddalore town
