Surekha Hemant Nerurkar, wife of Tata Steel Managing Director H M Nerurkar, inaugurated the project today, a company release said here.

The Aqua Park Rain Water Harvesting Project was opened in 2011 and the second Rain Water Harvesting Project was inaugurated at Central Camp, Noamundi on March 4.

It is estimated that on an average annually around 75,000 cubic meter of rain water would percolate in the Park from different high altitude sections around it, the release said.

With technical know-how from Chennai based rain water harvesting consultant KRG Rainwater Foundation, the project cost for this project is Rs 33 lakh.

The site of this project has been beautifully decorated with arches, models made by local artisans, artificial waterfalls, pathways and decorative lights.

Spread over 45 acres of land, the Sir Dorabji Tata Botanical Park had been once the site of mining but restored by creating a green oasis.
