The plants used in the filter are locally available reed called ‘tambok’ (Phragmites karka). It was grown during the construction phase in a nursery at the relocation site. The tambok was cut for the first time in 2008 and it was decided that it should henceforth be cut annually. The reeds also act as an odour barrier during the filling process of cell 1.
