In my group the district chairman of Soroti, Stephen Ochola, was sitting alongside a Katine primary school headteacher, a borehole committee member and a local councillor.
Children attending Nyamaropa Primary school frequently used boreholes and wells (51.2% and 32.6% respectively).
We met with the Soroti district chairman, visited a health centre and a local primary school in Ojom, a borehole in Amorikot, which is now providing villagers with clean water and one of the village savings and loans associations (VSLAs).
More than half (56%) of the households had a borehole as their primary water source.
Table 4 displays differences in symptom reporting across the three different primary sources of drinking water (borehole, sachet, and emergency water) in Ogale.
There were no significant differences in self-reported symptoms between Ogale participants who reported their primary drinking water source as borehole water, sachet water or emergency water.
Clearly, thermal stress analysis of open and cased boreholes is of primary interest for drilling and completion planning, as bottom-hole temperature changes can have as large an impact as bottom-hole pressure changes.
At the roof of this primary seal, in all these boreholes, siliciclastic deposits of the Purbeck facies, Weald, Aptian-Albian complex and Utrillas Formation are present, all with large lateral facies changes.
Whenever it failed to work, Etuwat said he would have to fetch water from the nearest borehole at Ojom community primary school.
Borehole (BH) assessments form the primary source of heat production and flow information but such measurements are often sparse.
