Generous Donors

We have been fortunate to have two donors so far donate equipment to the water supply project we are going to work on.
Heron Instruments in Canada (http://www.heroninstruments.com/) have donated a Dipper T water level meter for gauging water depths in ground water bores. They also provided a water level logger kit. This will allow studies of ground water levels to monitor bore production capabilities and see if there are any seasonal level fluctuations of the bore levels that may affect amount of water the bores can yield.

The Enviroequip division (http://www.enviroequip.com/) of Biolab Australia donated a range of basic equipment for taking water samples from bores. Equipment like bailers and foot valves, a fox whistle for simple depth gauging, and some water quality measuring test strips, will enable anyone to take a sample from any bore to enable the water quality to be accessed for suitability standards.

Thanks to these organisations as their equipment will be valuable out in the field to enable the local people do their own bore monitoring.
