Water Supply

Existence of much more iron, Arsenic and Calcium Carbonate in the water makes the supply water of the municipality is the only source of pure drinking water. Excluding the municipality people, surrounding Union people are also used this supply water as their source of drinking water.

The Municipality operated piped water supply system of Satkhira was first commissioned in 1918. Pond water was the source with a small treatment plant with a slow sand filtration. According to a 1963 report by DPHE, there were one production well, one small steel overhead reservoir and 4.8 km pipe lines at Satkhira Town. Under the “27 Sub-Divisional Towns Scheme” another 6” production well was sunk in the North-Western part of the town (Palashpur), and 4.5 km of pipe lines were completed. In the year 1981, one overhead tank (600 m3 capacity) and another 5 km pipe lines had been completed with Dutch assistance. The 101.47 km. of water supply distribution pier had been completed under I8 DTP-DPHE Project through Dutch assistance in the year of 1993 to 2000. Presently the water supply is going on with 2 overhead tanks and 3 treatment plants.
