The spring at this oasis supplies water for several thousand livestock a day; camels, donkeys, goats, and sheep. It also supplies people. Though it looks like dirt, most of the soil surrounding this spring is layers of dung built up over generations. In the coming year Blood:Water will fund the rehabilitation of this spring. It will be excavated by the local people, backfilled, and then capped with an outlet that will run “down stream” so livestock can drink without contaminating the water. A separate tap will be made so that people can obtain water without fighting for space from the animals.
