Week In Review! August 10, 2009

It's been a busy week for Project Milagro. Here's what has transpired. A view from the foundation trenches around the complete Rebombeo #1. 

The redistribution tank (Rebombeo #1) is finished.  It has been filled with water for over a week now and remains leak-free.  The tank is vital because it acts as a buffer in the water flow.  If there is a problem in the water flow from the well site (i.e. power outages, etc.), it will prevent the in-line pumps from being damaged.

The next step is to construct a protective wall around the outside of this tank and install a smaller, assist pump.  To accomplish this, The Crossing Church will arrive August 15 from Costa Mesa, CA to support local volunteers in wall construction. Trenches have been dug as we wait for the foundation to be laid for the wall.

Another major development last Wednesday was a general assembly meeting that Community members fired off questions to ADSA members for over an hour.took place in the Las Delicias municipal hall.  About 200 people attended in the sweltering dusk to hear ADSA present a progress report on Project Milagro.  ENLACE provided a handout illustrating both the steps completed and remaining.  (Click here.)

Along with providing basic information about the project's progress, such meetings are one of the integral functions of ADSA for two reasons. ADSA's transparency is of the utmost importance as it sends a message that encourages trust from the community.  Additionally, the more well-informed a community is the more cohesive it becomes.  At the end of the assembly meeting, after an hour of ADSA answering questions and addressing concerns, the community members filed out of the casa comunál (assembly hall) content and committed to moving forward on this phase.
