Stuff fromlast year


This year's work is a continuation of my masters thesis from last year. Two classmates and I spent 3 1/2 weeks in Rwanda last year assessing the water situation, doing water testing, visiting villages and understanding the area. We then wrote 3 theses about our work. Pictures from last year and our final reports are available at web.mit.edu/kdoyle04/Public. This year, Bernie and I will return to the same village to test the water quality in the newly installed tanks and to test the quality of water running off the rooftops. This work will be used in my final thesis and to provide guidelines for the installation of "first flush" devices throughout the village.
