Determining a Solution
After much discussion, it appeared the well installationoption was not good due to the low production of anexisting nearby well.

In addition, there does not appear to be any close local surface water supply available for treatment.
Determining a Solution
ROTARY CLUBOf
SARATOGA
The best solution: install piping to connect to anexisting treated water source
Proposed Solution
ROTARY CLUBOf
SARATOGA
Existing Water Treatment Plant

Above Ground Tank on a Hill
An above ground tank will be installed at the temple site to provide a reliable water supply with sufficient pressure
ROTARY CLUBOf
SARATOGA
Proposed Solution
Piping will be installed by a contractor to tank site (~1400 meters) and then to the village center (~1500 meters). At that point, villagers will hand dig to extend water main and provide services.
