Chandrachoodeshwarer temple tank of Hosur acts as water conservation structure, whilst being important for the sustainability of the environment and the economy of villages it serves. Temple tanks are the vital link in the water system and cater to the community scale of use. Temple tanks therefore can be looked upon as available infrastructure to help replenish the ground water levels, synergising modern technology with age-old infrastructure and knowledge.
