Engineers Without Borders-USA 2009 Midwest Workshop

2Engineers Without Borders - USA Simajhuleu, Guatemala Located 30 miles NW of Guatemala City Mayan village of 2500 inhabitants Subsistence farming and raising cattle Languages: Spanish and Kachiquel Partner Organization: Long Way Home

3Engineers Without Borders - USA Assessment 1: January 2008 WORK: WATER SUPPLY AND DISTRIBUTION INTO THE COMMUNITY FINDINGS: FRAGILE SPRINGS AND PIPES STRUCTURE

4Engineers Without Borders - USA Assessment 2: July 2009 WORK: DISTRIBUTION WITHIN THE COMMUNITY FINDINGS: WATER NEEDS AND MAP OF DISTRIBUTION

5Engineers Without Borders - USA Alternatives to Address the Need Current Sources: Natural Springs Improving Current System Repairing Existing Pipeline New Well Rainwater Harvesting System Reducing Dependence with Alternative Sources

6Engineers Without Borders - USA Selection of School HOW? Elevated tank can be connected to our tank Reduce dependence on main line Reliable water source WHY? Ensure the Supply goes to the most vulnerable members of the village, the children. Example of rain water harvesting system that could be replicated around village Large Surface Area will yield appreciable amounts of rainwater. Possibility of expansion.
