摘要: Abstract Water development planning requires both technical and social considerations. is gathered used predominantly by women in rural areas of developing countries, yet they are not always included the planning. A hydrogeological study was undertaken to estimate sustainable yield from a shallow aquifer while serving as Peace Corps volunteer Malian village (population 1200). This required “pumping” tests determine hydraulic properties aquifer. Village provided assistance hand-drawing (bailing) water wells at near constant rate. Local also participated water-use interviews that were identify community needs. The pumping test survey data computational models subsurface hydrology effectiveness pump installation. Two electrically powered pumps, atop drilled wells, separated least 500 m, could be supply needs (50,000 L/day) instead 64 dug currently use, many which have poor quality unreliable production. shows local can practical resource for water-related
