- Notes
- Alex went back to witness the fourth day of borehole drilling in Kisiro. Because of the hard rock, it has taken the drillers more days to try reach the depth to hit more water and create enough water storage for the water got. On a very good note, they managed to get more water and estimated about 1200L/ hr of water. After four days of extensive work, the borehole was confirmed successful after the drillers yield of 1200L/ hr and very good recovery.
