- Description
- These wells are located in historically underserved areas approximately 100km north of Araouane (2 wells), and 45km north of Timbuktu (3 wells). Due to the lack of water sources, these wells are natural meeting places and fall along lines of trafficking of men, weapons, and equipment moving across Mali. The wells were built by the US in 1980s. This project is the number one priority for the nomads and adding a wall and watering trough would increase the ease of watering the camel caravans as well as protecting the well from contamination. Second order effect GWOT would be access and placement for DOD elements in addition to combating a serious civil vulnerability that makes that population more susceptible to EVO influence and recruitment. CMSE has coordinated and deconflicted with USAID Mali and the West African Water Initiative to ensure project is consistent with USAID Program and Strategy the Theater Cooperation Plan and stated Goals number 2 and 3 of the Mali MSP. The contractor shall furnish all labor transportation materials equipment and services necessary to build the walls and trough around the well. Updates should include a one meter wall one meter from the well, a trough extending out from the wall and an updated pulley system to remove the water from the well.
