Community Management of Rural Water Supply
Author: Paul HutchingsPublisher: Routledge
ISBN: 1315313316
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 258
Book Description
The supply of reliable and safe water is a key challenge for developing countries, particularly India. Community management has long been the declared model for rural water supply and is recognised to be critical for its implementation and success. Based on 20 detailed successful case studies from across India, this book outlines future rural water supply approaches for all lower-income countries as they start to follow India on the economic growth (and subsequent service levels) transition. The case studies cover state-level wealth varying from US$2,600 to US$10,000 GDP per person and a mix of gravity flow, single village and multi-village groundwater and surface water schemes. The research reported covers 17 states and surveys of 2,400 households. Together, they provide a spread of cases directly relevant to policy-makers in lower-income economies planning to upgrade the quality and sustainability of rural water supply to meet the Sustainable Development Goals, particularly in the context of economic growth.

Aimed to enhance the capacity of urban managers and decision-makers in water resources management. Topics covered at the symposium include rainwater utilisation, water reuse, aquifer recharge, leakage control, and water demand management, as approaches for securing water by efficient use of existing water sources to avoid water shortages in urban areas. Presentations and discussions in each session covered the advantages, special features, and characteristics of each approach, including obstacles and barriers to be overcome. Case studies of efficient water use and effective management practices of water resources were also profiled.

Operation and Maintenance of Urban Water Supply and Sanitation Systems
Author: World Health OrganizationPublisher:
ISBN: 9789241544719
Category : Maintenance
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Describes a systems approach to the operation and maintenance of drinking-water and sanitation services in urban areas of developing countries. Addressed to managers and other personnel with decision-making responsibilities, the book responds to ample evidence that poor management has had the greatest single negative impact on the quality of water supply and sanitation services. The guide, which is intended to serve as a reference source and conceptual framework, covers virtually all the procedures, activities, projects, and areas of managerial responsibility, at different levels, needed to ensure that water supply and sanitation services function continuously, efficiently, and to their full capacity. Emphasis is placed on procedures that can help control water losses. The book has five parts. The first describes the use of the management systems approach to analyse the functions of drinking-water and sanitation agencies and to solve operation and maintenance problems. Part two, on management, provides a step-by-step account of the key responsibilities and functions involved in managing an agency's operation and maintenance activities. The third and most extensive part serves as a detailed guide to the planning and control of operation and maintenance procedures. While most attention is given to projects for controlling water loss, part three also covers programmes for controlling the production and quality of drinking-water, and for sewage collection, treatment, re-use, and disposal. The remaining chapters describe information systems and the procedures and stages of implementation. Of particular practical value is a five-page tabular presentation of performance indicators that can be used to assess the effectiveness of specific activities.
