3.2) Utilization of well How many families depend on this source: Other water sources in the neighborhood?

320 people 2 boreholes, a dam and streams

How far away are they?

The question was not asked in this community.

Is it always access to this alternative water source?

The question was not asked in this community.

3.3) Villagers experience and opinions Is the yield acceptable? Yes. Does it run dry?

It runs dry in the dry season but high yield in the rainy season.

Is it sensitive for high utilization only in the dry season?

The well is sensitive for many users.

Is the pump always accessible or is it open during certain hours only?

The pump is locked to prevent children from mishandling it. In the dry season it is also locked during the day for recovery and opens for use again next morning.

If the community has a maintenance account, how much on the account?

Yes, there is a maintenance account with GHc 120.00

Who is managing the account?

200 people Two boreholes 50 meters away from the well. They have access to water from this alternative water source all year round.

Is it always access to this alternative water source? 3.3) Villagers experience and opinions Is the yield acceptable? The well yield is only acceptable during the rainy season but in the dry season the well yield is low. The current increase in water level is due to the recent rains in the area.

However, it was used earlier in the morning and they fetched about 5-10 buckets. The recent rains has changed the color of the water so the people fetch from the boreholes and use the well less. But they said after some time the water color will be ok.
