With a view to meeting the future water supply requirements of the growing population of Gurgaon, the Haryana Urban Development Authority (HUDA) will construct a second water treatment plant for the city at a cost of Rs 86.44 crore.
The estimates regarding the project have been approved by the state government. The tender pre-qualification bid has also been received by HUDA and work will be allotted soon.
Disclosing this here today, the HUDA administrator, G. Anupama, said this second water-treatment plant at Chandu-Budhera would be constructed in two phases.
The construction of the 22-MGD water treatment plant would be done in the first phase and remaining 44 MGD in the second phase. Thus, it would have storage capacity of 66 MGD. She pointed out that the construction work of the third water treatment plant of 20 MGD at Basai was already in progress and it was likely to be functional by March 2009.
