HDPE v PVC pipes
By Blue Planet Network Posted on Sat 14 Oct 2006, over 19 years ago
Which pipes do you use?
Everyone appears to be moving away from PVC, because its so toxic to manufacture and impossible to dispose off. HDPE is non toxic, lasts for many years longer and is totally recyclable.
Finally, Blue Planet Run may be having access to HDPE pipe supplier for our projects. Interested?
Sanitation Component of Proposal
By WaterAid Posted on Tue 17 Oct 2006, over 19 years ago
Thank you for your proposal and work in India over the past twenty years. We at WaterAid America are interested in further learning about the sanitation component of this proposal. Your submission underscores the need for RWH due to arsenic contamination of groundwater, however the proposal appears to address sanitation as well (an approach we whole-heartedly support).
total number of beneficiaries? maintenance and tracking program?
By Project Well Posted on Tue 17 Oct 2006, over 19 years ago
1. Is the total number of people receiving benefits 4000 or 12,000? (2) In West Bengal there are examples where RWH has failed due to lack of proper maintainance and management and there are some where it is successful, is there any tracking system managed by BFC to ensure maintenance of the system to make it sustainable and durable?
RWH
By Watershed Organization Trust Posted on Wed 18 Oct 2006, over 19 years ago
Thank you very much for the project description. But it is not clear how the RWH system will benefit or satisfy the need of safe drinking of the children? Please elaborate how this collected rain water will be stored and what is the storage capacity? also what are the techniques being used for the purification of water.
