Sinilar casting models were to have been set up for<br />
the other activities of WDA, namely the bailding of<br />
surface water catchment facilities, and the<br />
installat ion of urban water supply systems.<br />
Unfortunatefy, the limited manpower available to the<br />
Planning Unit, and the lack of good cost data,<br />
prevented this from being completed. This should be a<br />
priority of WDA for the future, so that the relative<br />
costs of alternative methods 05 providing water can be<br />
cornpared. The comp~t-ehensive model designed for wall<br />
construction should serve as a blueprint for this<br />
exercise.<br />
For the same reasons that prevented resource planning<br />
schedules beinq established throughout the regions, it<br />
was not possible to study in any depth the revenue<br />
coX3ectian procedures of WDA. A Revenue Accounting<br />
Manual (Coopers and Lybrand, 1884), is already in<br />
existence which bas not been properly implemented.<br />
Comments on the actual and potential pricing structure<br />
are derived from the economic analysis, and are<br />
presented in Section 4.0 of this volume of the report.<br />
Observations from the Bay Region on the practice of<br />
fee cclX1zction within the community around well sites<br />
are Ciscussed in Section 3,U.<br />
3. Socioeconomic monitoring and evaluation.<br />
A socioecono=ic impact monitoring and evaluation<br />
system was designed and also field tested in the Bay<br />
Region. This is described in Section 3 -0 of this<br />
volume of the report, where the limited data available<br />
from the surveys carried out is also discussed,<br />
4. Policy studies.<br />
The policy sf~~dy objectives were very much a concern<br />
in designing the monitoring and evaluation systems<br />
which were tested and are presented Ln this report.<br />
From the limited data collected, palicy options are<br />
discussed as follaws:<br />
1) wzter pricing economics in section 4.3,<br />
2) the potential for community <strong>part</strong>icipation in<br />
operation and maintenance in Section 2 .5,<br />
3) control and methods of revenue collection, in<br />
Section 3.8.<br />
The Planning Unit has entered all barehole data from the<br />
1973 UNDP/FAO st?~dy into a conputerised database.<br />
~dditioaally, this initial well inventory includes all data
