• Timeline conflict• Quincucirca wants to build intake pipeline this year• EWB-Davis cannot provide designs
Pre-2012 Assessment Trip
![Page 15: Bolivia Project](https://reader033.vdocument.in/reader033/viewer/2022052706/58a367191a28aba4138b5729/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• EWB-Davis lays out three options1) - No immediate construction
- EWB Davis assesses for entire potable water system2) - Distribution construction
- Quincucirca works on distribution system- EWB Davis assesses for pipeline
3) - Pipeline construction- Quincucirca works on transmission line- EWB Davis assesses for distribution
