Rainfall, environment and water resource development in Somaliland and the Sahel

This thesis has relevance to any water and/or environment initiatives in both the Somaliland region and the Sahel. It aims to answer the desire among growing numbers of water managers and environmentalists to bring a more lateral approach to the water management debate globally. This thesis explores the general inter-relation between hydrological and man-oriented processes, in relation to current models for water resource development and natural resource management in Somaliland. Extensive reference is drawn to studies published elsewhere in the Sahel. The Sahel and Somaliland are introduced, along with definitions of drought and land degradation. An understanding of paradigms in development co-operation and sustainable development are shown, through a review of the evolution of guiding principles of water resource development in developing countries, and a statement of their usefulness in water scarce developing countries. The EU guidelines for strategic water resource development are reviewed amongst others.

Prefeasibility and Geophysical Investigations, Garowe Town Water supply, Puntland State Somalia

Earth Water Ltd was commissioned by Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) Somalia to Carry out pre-feasibility geophysical and hydro geological investigations to determine the presence of an aquifer in the surroundings of Garowe town in the Nugal region of the Puntland State of North Eastern Somalia. The investigations were executed in a multi-step approach: I) Desk study 2) Field reconnaissance study 3) Data acquisition 4) Data analysis and reporting The Client requires detailed information on the availability of groundwater resources to be used for the development of a central water supply for Garowe town. The projected water demand for domestic consumption is in the order of 800 m3 /day. The objective of the present study is to assess the available groundwater, to recommend the best possible sites for further detailed investigations to develop a centralized weilfield for drilling of several boreholes, the required depth, expected yield and water quality. For this purpose all the available hydro geological information of the area has been analyzed and a geophysical survey carried out.
