Piave - Borehole Project
05.10.2007
Water is essential for life. In July 2007, ROTH had a borehole dug in order to service both the community and the Piave Health Centre. Special machinery was brought in to dig an impressive 167 metres underground. The well yields an average of 5000 litres per hour of exploitable water.
Thanks to our generous donors and wonderful sponsors at Sonitec, we were able to install a pump to extract this water and turn it over to the community. A “Piave Borehole Committee” was established to make decisions over water allocation and borehole maintenance in August 2007.
Members of the Piave Community welcome the machinery that will be used to dig the borehole.
The machines get to work digging the borehole.
