NORAD Outputs
The Programme will aim at achieving its
goals through the development of specific outputs, which will be managed by the Department
of Water Affairs and Forestry. These outputs will include:
- A higher success rate and sustainability in groundwater based community water supply
projects.
- Raised understanding among decision-makers and water services planners and providers
regarding the benefits and the key factors determining the success of community water
supply from groundwater.
- More efficient and effective information provision for water services development
and management from groundwater.
- A widespread and measurable recognition of the value of groundwater and the need to
protect it through appropriate management measures.
- Appropriate technologies for groundwater development widely understood and taken up
into water services implementation practice.
- Significantly improved groundwater management at local level based on groundwater
source monitoring as part of scheme management.
- Communities participating actively in the protection of their own groundwater
sources.
- Improved water supply in rural areas through increased emphasis on groundwater as a
resource, a higher success rate in groundwater projects and increased public awareness of
the measures needed for the resource to be sustainable.

STANDARD
BOREHOLE DESCRIPTORS
Long
awaited documentation that is attempting to standardise the way the
data related to groundwater, and boreholes in particular is
available for general perusal. Substantial amount of work is behind
the pages that can now be downloaded for daily reference. The
project that generated the document
was enabled thanks to generous support of the NORAD, the Norwegian
Agency for the Development Cooperation.
