Water is an essential requirement for the body of the any living organisms. The human body contains morethan 70% of water and many essential minerals required for human body are present in the purer water. Mother Naturehas provided us the several sources of the pure water located in surface and subsurface of the earth. But we humans forsatisfying our needs have generated pollution in these natural sources making the source of water unfit for the use.Hence, water has to be treated by the local water supplying authority of a town before supplying water to the societyfrom the source to facilitate public with clean, fresh and palatable water. Therefore, Water Treatment Plant (WTP) is anessential requirement for the society of any town. So, the focus of this research paper is on the hydraulically designing aWTP. This paper particularly deals with the proposed hydraulic design for a 3 MLD WTP to be constructed atDhikwalGaon of Srinagar municipal board at PauriGarhwal district situated in state of Uttarakhand, India. The WTPproject has been launched by UttarakhandPey Jal Nigam. In this study, all the necessary units of a WTP have beenproposed and hydraulically designed considering the key factors such as source, society demand and degree of watertreatment required.
