The experience of the past year with a new site for a dam has also been successful. The place we found, enclosed by a small dam, has well functioned. Now the dam is being heightened. The clay that is present in the natural basin will be taken out. In total there will be a water-basin of 1.200 m3. For sure the condition is that rain should fall! The interventions will be coordinated by Kenneko Dara. In autumn, when the basin will be filled, we are going to study a simple method to transfer water to the lower village. By foot about 5 – 10 minutes are needed, which is much better than the actual walk needing 40 minutes uphill from the plain, and necessary when the water in the first basin is exhausted.
