Safe Water & Latrines for Honduran Village

Project Report | Jul 10, 2007
Progress Report August 2006

By Jessica Brooks | Donor Care Specialist

Construction Construction of the water system is nearing completion. The spring has been completely capped and the main pipeline installed; the distribution tank and distribution network have also been completed. The final stages of system construction are in motion, including installation of individual household water connections and washbasins. Significant progress is still being made on household latrine construction, with most of the participating households having fully excavated their tanks and begun installation. The community continues to actively participate in each part of the project and provided all of the labor and local materials.

Training Trainings are still ongoing in the community and are scheduled for completion at approximately the same time as construction is completed. A significant portion of this final reporting period will focus on health and sanitation education. Currently, trainings on system operation, maintenance and watershed protection are in process. In addition, community members continue to attend a series of training workshops focusing on water system administration and hygiene and sanitation education.

Organizing The water administration board continues to oversee the construction of the new water system. They have divided the completion of the project into two work groups who each take control of the community contribution and they assign work rolls and monitor the progress of specific activities throughout the project.
