The increasing number of returnees also exerts additional pressure on the limited water supply points, causing several inter and intra-group conflicts, particularly during summertime. It is envisaged that access to water through improved/rehabilitated and/or construction of additional/new water sources can help reducing tensions between water users, especially in Tundia area. Past water interventions endeavored by the community, NGOs and government, lacked proper planning, real technical input and therefore did not bring long-term sustainable solutions. Notwithstanding other problems and development challenges facing the area, the 5 year plan (2007 - 2011) for development of the area, devised by the Tundia Development and Management Committee has put emphasis on development of water supply sources. The overall objective of this water needs assessment is to contribute to alleviate the water problem, thus improving the socioeconomic conditions and mitigating water-related conflict in Tundia area. To achieve this objective a baseline survey study (supported by the World Bank, April, 2010) was conducted, focusing on a water needs assessment and highlighting the main problems that the population faces in the area. Subsequently, water development options have been suggested.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOACCESS TO SAFE DRINKING WATERACCESS TO WATERAGRICULTURAL DEVELOPMENTAGRICULTURAL PRODUCTIONANNUAL RAINFALLAQUIFERAQUIFERSAVAILABILITY OF WATERAVAILABLE WATERAVAILABLE WATER SUPPLYAVERAGE ANNUAL RAINFALLBOREHOLESCAPACITY WATERCATCHMENTCATCHMENT AREACHANNELCHANNELSCLAYCLIMATIC CONDITIONSCOMMUNITY CONTRIBUTIONCOMMUNITY DEVELOPMENTCOMMUNITY EFFORTSCOMMUNITY MEMBERSCOMMUNITY PARTICIPATIONCONSTRUCTIONCONTAMINANTSCOVERINGCROP FAILURECROP PRODUCTIONCUBIC METERCUBIC METERSCULTIVATED AREADEBRISDEVELOPMENT OF WATER SUPPLYDISCHARGEDISSOLVED SOLIDSDISTRIBUTION OF WATERDISTRIBUTION SYSTEMDIVERSIONDOMESTIC USESDOMESTIC WATERDOMESTIC WATER SUPPLYDRAINAGEDRINKING WATERDRINKING WATER SUPPLYDROUGHTENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT ASSESSMENTENVIRONMENTAL IMPACTSEROSIONEVAPORATIONFARMINGFIXATIONFOLDSGEOLOGICAL FORMATIONSGRAVELGRAZINGGROUNDWATERGROUNDWATER DEVELOPMENTGROUNDWATER QUALITYGROUNDWATER RESOURCESGROUNDWATER SOURCESHAND DUG WELLSHAND PUMPHAND PUMPSHEALTH CONDITIONSHIGH WATERHOUSEHOLDSHUMAN WATER CONSUMPTIONHYDROLOGICAL SURVEYSIRRIGATIONIRRIGATION WATERLEAKAGELIFTING WATERLIVESTOCK PRODUCTIONLOCAL COMMUNITYLOCALITYLOW RAINFALLMANAGEMENT OF WATERMANAGEMENT OF WATER SUPPLYMEASUREMENTSMOTORIZED PUMPSNATURAL RESOURCESOPEN WELLSOPERATORSPIPEPIPESPOLLUTIONPOPULATION DENSITYPOPULATION DISTRIBUTIONPOROSITYPRESSUREPROVISION OF WATERPROVISION OF WATER SUPPLYPUBLIC WATERPUMPINGPUMPING TESTPUMPSRAINRAIN GAUGERAW WATERRAW WATER QUALITYRECHARGEREMOTE SENSINGRESPONSIBILITY FOR WATERRUNOFFSAFE WATERSAFE WATER SUPPLYSALINITYSANDSANITATIONSECURE WATER SUPPLYSEEPAGESILTSLUICE GATESSMALL EARTH DAMSSOCIAL SERVICESSOILSSPARE PARTSSPECIFIC YIELDSUBMERSIBLE PUMPSSURFACE WATERSURFACE WATER HARVESTINGSURFACE WATER RESOURCESTOWNVALVESWASHINGWATER AVAILABILITYWATER CHANNELSWATER COLLECTIONWATER COLLECTION TIMEWATER CONSUMPTIONWATER DEMANDWATER DEVELOPMENTWATER DISTRIBUTIONWATER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMWATER DIVIDEWATER NEEDSWATER POINTSWATER PROJECTSWATER PUMPINGWATER QUANTITYWATER RESOURCEWATER RESOURCESWATER RESOURCES DEVELOPMENTWATER RESOURCES MANAGEMENTWATER SHORTAGEWATER SOURCEWATER SOURCESWATER STORAGEWATER STORAGE TANKSWATER SUPPLIESWATER SUPPLYWATER SUPPLY PROJECTSWATER SYSTEMWATER TAPSWATER TARIFFWATER TRANSPORTWATER USEWATER USERSWATER YIELDWATERSHEDSWELLSWorld Bank10.1596/13037
