CCC Study

Image Added
on On Tuesday 2.13 we met with Lizera Polanco Barahona, Mirna Argueta and Oscar Membreno of SANAA to discuss the terms of the CCC study. SANAA agreed to provide the technicians to monitor the CCC's in the communities that we will use for the study. SANAA has chosen 5 communities for the study (3 that will have the CCC installed, and 2 that will serve as a contol) in an area that SANAA currently has budgeting for.
Antonio will give an introduction to the study next Monday 2.23 to SANAA technicians and a more formal presentation on how the CCC's operate on 3.2.09. Antonio will make the contacts with the Junta's of these communities to evaluate their interest in this project. The Junta will be responsible for monitoring the pH, turbidity and chlorine residual.
