The Samburu Project's 12 Well Initiative for 2013 will bring the total number of wells drilled to 63. Each 70-meter well provides access to clean, safe drinking water to approximately 1,000 people.

Implementation Status: pending Mon 27 May 2013, About 12 Years agoStart Date Set
Kristen and Lucas met with Kariuki, TSP hydrogeologist and Ajay Shah, TSP well driller, in Nairobi. After much conversation, it was decided that site selection for the 2013 Well Drill would begin on June 15. Kariuki and Lucas will mobilize communities and determine viable wells sites. Updates on surveys and site selection forthcoming.
After site are selected and permits secured, well drilling is scheduled to begin in August.
How it Works
Every field note helps building a history of activity at the project site. Every visit should result in a field note, including visits by peers and 3rd parties. Visits can be before implementation, during implementation and during operational state.
If the field note is during the operating phase of the project, then PWX considers the note as a verification note. Verification can show if the current operating state is different from that in the 'final' report and thus draw attention and resources to resolve issues.
Soon PWX AnalytiX will track the number of projects verified and combine that with the amount of time elapsed since 'completion', to summarize monitoring efforts and the sustainability of projects.
