Hyderabad Launches Green Water Tanker Service to Promote Treated Wastewater Use
The Hyderabad Metropolitan Water Supply and Sewerage Board (HMWSSB) launched a green water tanker service on its 37th Foundation Day to supply treated wastewater from Sewage Treatment Plants for non-potable uses like landscaping, construction, and industrial activities. This initiative, directed by Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, aims to conserve potable water amid rainfall deficits and El Niño concerns. Initially, 21 green tankers operate from 19 STPs, with special officers overseeing quality and distribution. The program encourages government departments and industries to reduce fresh water use for non-domestic purposes.
