Hi Zachary,
For more context about how the villagers access the river, check out the project opportunities in Design Area 2- Water Supply.
The existing river water pump located downstream, which is currently not functional, is for agricultural purposes.
Another water collection point is on the sloping riverbank (see Interactives: 360 Site Walkthroughs, where we have video footage of Chen collecting water).
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Jean
