wiLl essist t5cse enployees vhc have n ~ t been exposed to the<br />
pro3 ect . In the interest of insuring continuity of effort,<br />
appropriate trzkzing prograzs for the v~riour disciplines should<br />
be developed. These prograss should be short term and<br />
preferably be given in Somalia. The problems and conditions<br />
existing in-country shauld serve as the basis for any additional<br />
training. Ail too often, training received in other countries<br />
has limited application %hen trainees retu,m. Conditions<br />
in-country are dif Zeuent , and the high-tethnoXogy equipment on<br />
which they ti-vs trained is often lacking.<br />
Areas fn vhich adOftia~n1 trainicg for current eIEp10yces<br />
should be cansidered inclzde; hydrogeologic report preparation,<br />
driver education, welding, pu~p naintenance and repair, and<br />
English language, Kydrugeoiogic report preparation should be<br />
taught to those hydrugeologists that have a good grasp of the<br />
overall tasks perfamed in groundvater investigations. Nearly<br />
all publfcatians in SaaaPfa pertaining ro groundwater have been<br />
prepare6 by a-rltsfde rons.~ltants. Personnel of WDA should learn<br />
how to conduct regional hydroqeologfc investigations and how to<br />
prepare mean ing Eul reports. Kith the current available<br />
database, regional reports, or other divisional unit reports,<br />
should be prepared. These repores shauld be made available to<br />
ather agencies aad to the general public vhe~ large water-using<br />
pro-jects are ndsr consideraffsn.<br />
Driver educativn c~usses, both classroom and practical, are<br />
especially important for thcsa individuals driving heavy duty<br />
trucks and the drillizg rigs+ The large number of vehicle<br />
repairs could be significantly reduced by improved driving<br />
standards, Trazsmlssfons, brakes, tires, etc. could be saved<br />
from excessive usar and failure if traineO drivers were assigned<br />
to t3e vehicles. This trai3ing skould extend to preventive<br />
aa f ntenance ,<br />
Weiding teckniqves; shocld be. provided to all drillers and<br />
zb the aechanics- Sore trai~lng in ueldixg techxiques was given<br />
during the CGC?, however, lock u2 the and otker difficulties<br />
prevented a nore intensive prograzi. Welding, end associated<br />
cutting and bendicg techni~~es are a2 integral <strong>part</strong> of moat<br />
drilling operations and of aaEy nechznical repair tasks, If<br />
welding is provided in che curriculum of the local trade or<br />
technical school prograas, arran~a~ents should be made for<br />
drillers and ~schanlcs to attend- Dsihlers with good welding<br />
tecknkqces will save zany kours of lost tine that result from<br />
casi~g fzilzres and relared sr~bleas.<br />
Because xost of t5o pap work associated with the CGDP<br />
i~*~*olved i~sZailat ion of puxp , there were limited<br />
oppxfiunicies to provide trainixg in the ziaintenance and repair<br />
