Objective

To provide the occupants of the building with good potable quality water for drinking and/
or washing purposes as prescribed by the standards and to ensure that treated wastewater is
meeting the desired standards for reuse and/or disposal.

28.1 Commitment

28.1.1 Ensure water from all sources (such as groundwater, municipal water, treated wastewater)

towers (as given in National building code (NBC) 2005).


Note: In case the water quality cannot be ensured, provide necessary treatment of raw water for achieving the desired
concentrations for various applications.

28.2 Compliance
28.2.1 Provide water optimization plan (water flow diagram giving the complete collection,
treatment, and distribution for different applications)
28.2.2 Provide the potable and treated wastewater quality details from various sources before
and after treatment
28.2.3 Report/certificate from the local municipal authority for municipal water or certificate
