census. As the city lacks a perennial water source, catering the water requirements of the population has remained an arduous task.

With the population increasing over the decades, the city has faced water supply shortages, and its ground water levels have been depleted. An earlier <a href="/wiki/Veeranam_Lake" title="Veeranam Lake">Veeranam Lake project</a> aimed at augmenting the city's water supply failed. However, the New Veeranam project, which became operational in September 2004, has greatly reduced dependency on distant sources.

The city has constructed a couple of <a href="/wiki/Desalination" title="Desalination">sea water desalination plants</a> to further increase the water supply, with the two functioning since 2010 and 2013, respectively. A third one has been planned. However, Chennai is expected to face a huge deficit of 713 million litres per day (MLD) as the demand is projected at 2,248 MLD and supply estimated at only 1,535 MLD in 2026.

The first proposal to tap water from <a href="/wiki/Kortalayar_river" class="mw-redirect" title="Kortalayar river">Kortalayar river</a> situated about 160 km northwest of the city was forwarded by Fraser, a civil engineer. The <span style="white-space: nowrap">₹</span> 1.85-million project involved construction of a masonry weir across Kortalayar River at <a href="/wiki/Tamaraipakkam" class="mw-redirect" title="Tamaraipakkam">Tamaraipakkam</a> and diverting the water into <a href="/wiki/Cholavaram_lake" class="mw-redirect" title="Cholavaram lake">Cholavaram lake</a> and further into the <a href="/wiki/Red_Hills_Lake" class="mw-redirect" title="Red Hills Lake">Red Hills Lake</a> by means of a channel. This established the first scientifically designed <a href="/wiki/Water_distribution_system" title="Water distribution system">water distribution system</a> in the city. The primary works were completed in 1870, and in 1872, a valve house at Red Hills and a gravity-aided earthen supply channel to supply water were built. Within the city, water was delivered by gravity into a masonry shaft at <a href="/wiki/Kilpauk" title="Kilpauk">Kilpauk</a>, where the channel ended. From here, the <a href="/wiki/Cast_iron" title="Cast iron">cast iron</a> mains of the city branched off to carry water to different parts of the city. According to J. W. Madeley, a pioneer of Chennai water supply and sewerage system during 1914–1918, these were considered sufficient for an anticipated population of 660,000 in 1961 at a rate of 25 gallons per head per day. However, the need for further improvement was felt in 1936.<sup id="cite_ref-CMW_History_5-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-CMW_History-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Estimates say that the expanse of water bodies in and around Chennai contracted from 12.6 square kilometers in 1893 to 3.2 square kilometers in 2017.
