2. Description de la Technologie de GDT
2.1 Courte description de la Technologie
Définition de la Technologie:
A rock catchment system is a water harvesting structure comprising a bare slopping rock surface (catchment area), a built concrete wall at a strategic point (weir), pipeline from the weir to the storage tank(s), storage tanks and water kiosk(s) connected to the water tanks by pipelines.
2.2 Description détaillée de la Technologie
Description:
A rock catchment system is a water harvesting structure comprising a bare slopping rock surface (catchment area), a built concrete wall at a strategic point (weir); a pipeline system running from the weir to the storage tanks; storage tanks and water kiosk(s). The Technology is built on an a gently sloping outcrop of a continuous rock on the hillside. The bare rock is the catchment surface from which rainwater is harvested. The weir is constructed at a strategic point for maximum collection at the lower end towards the foot of the hill. The weir dams the harvested water and channels the water through a piping system to the reservoirs, mostly masonry tanks, located at the foot of the hill. A weir is usually a concrete wall constructed and reinforced with iron bars to give it adequate strength that can withstand the weight of the dammed water. The length, height and thickness of a weir vary with the size and the slope of the rock catchment area. On average a weir will be 10 meters long, 2 meters high and 0.5 meters thick. At the base of the weir, an infiltration box of approximately 1 square meter is constructed and filled from the bottom with fine sand, coarse sand and gravel in that order for the purpose of sieving off impurities before the water is directed into the tanks. Metallic piping is recommended for connecting the weir to the storage tanks downhill due to high pressure exerted by flowing water. The piping distance would range from 15 to 300 meters from the weir to the storage tanks. Provision is usually provided for additional pipelines in case there is need for expansion of the system. At the bottom of the hill, masonry tanks are constructed ranging from 100 cubic meters and above depending on the catchment area, population, and available resources. The pipes join the tanks through a control chamber box meant for regulating water flow into the tanks. Adjacent to the tanks are a water kiosks room, where the community draws water. To gauge how much water is issued, a water meter is fitted inside the kiosk. Metering the water is a structural measure for accountability and control.
Construction of a rock catchment system needs heavy investment of materials - cement, quarry stones, ballast, iron bars, sand, hard-core stones, water, metallic (GI) pipes and fittings for plumbing. Construction of the system is labour intensive for both skilled and non-skilled. The main purpose of the rock catchment system is to harness, harvest, and store rainwater for domestic and a limited number of livestock use. For the case of the documented project, the benefiting communities are pastoralists who live in northern Kenya, a region characterised by chronic droughts, seasonal floods and acute water shortages.The communities have chronic and seasonal acute water shortages. The water situation is aggravated by increasing drought frequency and severity. On the other hand, the little rain received has often been destructive downstream, usually cutting off roads and causing massive soil erosion due to high water velocity flowing downhill. During the dry periods when the open water sources such as earth pans dry up, women travel long distances to search for water from hand dug shallow wells along the dry seasonal riverbeds. These wells are hazards to both livestock and the locals.

4.1 Dessin technique de la Technologie
4.2 Spécification/ explications techniques du dessin technique
A Rock catchment consists of the following main components:
Catchment area - vary between more or less than 100 square meters
Infiltration box - concrete box with approximately one square meter and 0.5 meters deep
Weir - a wall approximately 20 meters length, approx. 0.3-0.5 meters width, and 1.5 meters height; depending on the site the catchment can store between 150 and 700 cubic meter above the weir
Pipes - Galvanised steel pipes of varying diameters and length depending on catchment size and storage location and capacity
Tanks - tanks with varying capacities, of the same order of magnitude as the catchment storage capacity above the weir. Together, tanks and catchment can store some 10-20% of the annual precipitation falling over the rock catchment, which is enough to sustain water use during a normal year, but not during a year of exceptional water scarcity.

Revenus et coûts
diversité des sources de revenus
Commentaires/ spécifiez:
The time women used to spend in search of water has drastically reduced. They are now freer to engage and participating in social local networks and small businesses.
charge de travail
Commentaires/ spécifiez:
Women have benefited hugely from this Technology. Before the intervention, they would walk up to 5 kilometres in search of water for domestic use. This was particularly worse during drought or an extended dry spell as they also had to queue for many hours a day to get the water from available water points.
Autres impacts socio-économiques
Reduced conflicts over scarce water resources
Quantité avant la GDT:
N/A
Quantité après la GDT:
N/A
Commentaires/ spécifiez:
The pastoralist communities have in the recent decades experienced resources-based conflicts. These conflicts happen at regional, communal and family scales. The communities and families benefiting from this intervention no longer have to fight over the resource because it is adequate.
Impacts socioculturels
situation sanitaire
Quantité avant la GDT:
Little water available for hygiene practices such as handwashing
Quantité après la GDT:
Additional of 30 litres per day now available for good hygiene practices
Commentaires/ spécifiez:
The availability of water have drastically improved hygiene practices.
institutions communautaires
Quantité avant la GDT:
No properly functioning water managment committee
Quantité après la GDT:
There is a vibrant and dedicated water management committee
Commentaires/ spécifiez:
The implementation of the Technology has invigorated the community members and they have shown better organisation to prudently manage the water system. The management committee was existing before the technology was implemented when they managed other water sources. However, the motivation then was low coupled with low capacity to operate and maintain the water sources they had.
apaisement des conflits
Quantité avant la GDT:
Several occurences of conflict over water
Quantité après la GDT:
No more reason for conflict
Commentaires/ spécifiez:
The pastoral communities have in the recent decades experienced resources-based conflicts. These conflicts happen at regional, communal and family scales. The communities and families benefiting from this intervention no longer have to fight over the resource because it is adequate.
situation des groupes socialement et économiquement désavantagés
Quantité avant la GDT:
About 6 hours spent a day in search of water especially during the dry season
Quantité après la GDT:
A maximum of 30 minutes spent by a woman to fetch water
Commentaires/ spécifiez:
The Technology benefits women most who traditionally are socially and economically disadvantaged. Now they have more time to engage in other profitable activities. The Technology has also taken away the burden of proving water for the households, freeing them for greater social engagement
Impacts écologiques
Cycle de l'eau/ ruissellement
récolte/ collecte de l'eau
Commentaires/ spécifiez:
Water that would normally be lost almost after it has rained is now stored and kept for future use.
ruissellement de surface
Quantité avant la GDT:
All rainwater from the developed catchment was lost each time it rained.
Quantité après la GDT:
About 3500 cubic meters of water is retained within the locality of the community
Commentaires/ spécifiez:
There is increased control of surface runoff reducing its damaging effects on soil, vegetation and infrstrature. However, the the scale to which this is realised is low.

Commentaires/ spécifiez:
Due to reduced amount of water flowing from the hillside downstream, the ability of water to erode soil downstream is reduced though at very low scale.
Réduction des risques de catastrophe et des risques climatiques
impacts de la sécheresse
Quantité avant la GDT:
Water emergency supply at least two a year during the two dry spells.
Quantité après la GDT:
No single water trucking done in the last two years
Commentaires/ spécifiez:
Water has been the most affected livelihood commodity during drought events among the benefiting community. The impact had been acute water shortage leading to external emergency interventions. It was also happened that sometimes when food aid was provided, the community would have no water to cook. There is no longer need for water emergency in these communities.
6.2 Impacts hors site que la Technologie a montrés
dommages sur les infrastructures publiques/ privées
Commentaires/ spécifiez:
The high velocity water from the hills have been a constant menace in cutting or blocking roads downstream with debris. The harvesting of water has reduced the impact of this water at some sections of the hilly landscape.
Commentaires concernant l'évaluation des impacts:
Some aspects of information are difficult to establish and could be best evaluated by a household survey.
