Problem Dossier & Community Findings

During torrential rainfall, low-lying drainage pathways backflow into residential zones within twenty minutes, contaminating local groundwater sources and halting transit corridors. Municipal sensors are sparse, leaving emergency responders without real-time depth metrics.

Ground conditions for the filtration units at North Cistern

The water intake fluctuates violently after monsoon downpours. Please note the cartridges need replaceable pre-strainers or silt blocks will saturate inside 48 hours.
