      Is there a map of the current water infrastructure in Loidahar?

        Hi Rhys

        Unfortunately not, it’s a rural community. There’s dense foliage, which made mapping very difficult. From our visit however

        – There are 11no. retention ponds scattered throughout the village, each measuring approx 15m x 10m

        – There are numerous underground springs

        – Small concrete water storage tanks (which receives piped supply from the springs) supply 4-5 households each

        – Only a handful of water storage tanks have solar powered water level indicators

        – Water infrastructure is an ad-hoc assortment of small diameter metal pipes, water stands with taps, some PVC

        Hope that helps
