Community Well Water Analysis in Santo Domingo Barrio Bajo Etla

From Nelly Fernandez Tellez Water for Humans– Mexico Operations

On 25 April, I paid a visit to the community of Santo Domingo Barrio Bajo Etla.


I was there to obtain a copy of the results from annual analysis of community well water conducted last year, and to talk with the manager of the water committee.


Initial results show the water is fairly good quality, however the well pump failed last year and the new replacement pump is starting to show some corrosion.  Currently, the municipality does not have the funds to perform new water analysis, and they have asked Water for Humans to help them determine the root cause of the pump failure and better understand the water quality.

In response we are invigorating the costs of performing a more complete water analysis, and forecasting the funding requirements to support this request.
