Manual Drilled Boreholes and Borehole Repairs Issues Sample Clauses

Manual Drilled Boreholes and Borehole Repairs Issues. In the area of manual drilling, the main challenge we faced was how to repair and reproduce the drilling tools. It took us some time to work with staff of a machine shop in Assin South District to be able to reproduce the tools, which had to be imported from Niger because of the substantially lower price point available. In the area of borehole repairs, access to some of the communities to conduct repair operations proved difficult. In some instances, the contractor’s track was unable to make it to the community due to road and other conditions, and communities members had to carry the drilling tools and materials. This, however is the advantage of manual drilling the tools can be transported to places where large rigs cannot go. For the repair works, the main challenge continues to be ensuring that communities have sufficient commitment and capacity to maintain their boreholes. Some of the WatSan Committees will require constant monitoring and training, but the DWST in both Assin North and Assin South districts have demonstrated their lack financial logistics capacity to carry out these kinds of activities. In addition, pump mechanics also complained of instances when they repaired boreholes, but the communities were unable to pay them; it has become apparent that in some communities the watsan account is what the whole community depends on for their funeral, travel and other costs. To address this, we will do what we can: We will continue to meet with the community leaders and elders to emphasise the need for the funds to be set aside for repairs and maintenance only.
