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.

Sustainability
Creating and measuring long-term impact
For 40 dugwells USD1360
Other Issues
Unusual and unexpected issues faced during project execution
Research and Development is part of the project. The arsenic level was 11 PPB tested on 30th June 2008. The Total coliform and Fecal coliform are 40 and 'undetected' respectively. Date of water collection for bacteria tests was on 6th December 2008.
Learnings
Knowledge of project and process for sharing
The construction cost of this 16 feet depth dugwell was USD469 instead of USD424

This dugwell is not being used now.
In september 5 2008, families (19 consumers) were drinking water from this dugwell and stopped from october onwards due to technical problem. Due to heavy rainfall the water became turbid and two rings got displaced. Repair work has been scheduled.
Register is being created.
People Getting Other Benefits: 50
Health meeting and villages meetings have been organized in this community-based-group. The discussion were on on arsenic health effects and personal hygiene. A training program on the maintenance of the dugwells (including chlorination) is given to develop a sense of ownership and to make the program sustainable. The register is being created.
