The AguaClara team designed a water treatment plant for the town of Tamara, Honduras during the Fall of 2007. The foundation stone for the Tamara, Honduras water treatment plant was official set in concrete on January 13, 2008. The water treatment plant will serve 3500 people and will incorporate a long list of design improvements. The $70,000 project is being financed by a dozen Rotary Clubs with the Northeast Westchester and Somers Rotary Clubs taking the lead.
In December 2007 the AguaClara team completed the design of a water treatment plant for the town of Tamara Honduras with the goal of beginning construction in January 2008. The water treatment plant will serve 3500 people and will incorporate a long list of design improvements.
The AguaClara team is also providing design assistance for our partner, National Rural Water Association, as they retrofit a failed filter system in Marcala Honduras and convert it into an AguaClara water treatment plant. The Marcala plant will serve 10,000 people. The Marcala construction project is underway and is expected to finish in the late spring of 2008.
Through generous support from our sponsors, we have two AguaClara Engineers Abroad, John Erickson and Carol Serna, who are on assignment in Honduras for a full year starting in August, 2007.
