MDF has carried out a feasibility report study on water quality in 2022. In addition, MDF has carried out water quality and hydrogeological surveys on the project site to determine the quality of water and to propose a suitable drilling spot. The project has benefited the school with a new treatment facility that serves more than 1000 students and staff at the institution.
Currently, MDF intends to develop a Technical Report that will be useful to students who are carrying out our project in this area and also will benefit future researchers who are carrying out water quality projects in the project area MDF has visited.
To that end, we will need the support of three Online Volunteers who can extract vital information from the report MDF has produced and compile a corresponding technical report concerning the study that was carried out.
The collaboration with volunteers under this online assignment will help MDF in achieving its objective of supporting and carrying out community development projects to help the rural and urban community in PNG to have good quality water and improving their quality of life.
