All industries depending on for requirement of water will have to install sensor-based flow meter, a water measuring device at their intake points.
The state <a href="https://exam.pscnotes.com/water-Resources“>Water Resources department has directed the office of engineer-in-chief (EIC), planning and design to co-ordinate with the state industries department, industrial promotion and Investment corporation ofOdisha Limited(IPICOL) and other agencies to finalize a standard specification of flow meter and ensure its timely installation in all industries.
The decision to install the meter in all industries has been taken after success of two pilot projects–one atIFFCO, Paradeep and other atIMFAsChoudwarunit.
The water flow meter is an instrument used to measure the volume of water passing through a particular channel (pipe). With installation of the meter, the state government can keep a tab on actual use of water by various industries vis–vis their demand.
The department has asked the EICs office to communicate to all industries to install flow meter at their intake points, failing which penalty will be charged by the department. After installation of the flow meters, the industries will have to calibrate it periodically with legal metrology.
