WASH Priority needs are: 1. Water supply 2. Solid waste management

Water situation: Before there was one water station providing water to the village that is
totally destroyed, There is a tower water tank with a capacity of 50m^3 and 10m high + 20m
on a higher elevation land than the water well, static functioning, there is one borehole with a
yield of 40m3/hr, Static water level 111m, Dynamic water level 120m but it’s not equipped,
and local electricity network is not functioning in the village. See figure 1.

η = pump efficiency η = 75 %
Water demand in emergency “community” 35 liters/person/Day
