Yemen Solar Water Project 60 to 70Mt deep
As Per guidelines of the Ministries, a licensed engineer must be available alongside project coordinator of implementing partner (Muslim Aid Partner on the ground) to visit potential sites to properly examine water longevity and tests for safe drinking. To locate the wells, Yemen Aid works in close collaboration with the responsible government authorities that are authorized by Yemen Government and Ministry of Planning and International Cooperation.
