Basing my rating on the history WfP has in the community. Am concerned about the pipe and whether the mtce fee will allow for replacements in a few years.

I read WFPs response and I still dont understand why they dont use the water project as the carrot to motivate the community to build latrines first. I am sure the water project is needed, will be well built, etc. but it is too bad not to get at least some sanitation coverage into this project now
