WATER
Freshwater is a basic natural resource which sustains life and
provides for various social and economic needs. In its natural state, water is
an integral part of the environment whose quantity and quality determine how it
can be used. Safe drinking water and good sanitation practices are basic
considerations for human health. The use of contaminated sources poses health
risks to the population as evidenced by the incidences of water borne diseases
such as diarrhoea and cholera. Despite its importance to our lives and
development, water is unevenly distributed in time, space, quantity and with
great variations in quality. Furthermore, water is a finite and a vulnerable
resource
Ilemela
Constituency to a great extent is supplied with clean water. The availability
of clean piped water is mainly from lake Victoria through Mwanza Urban Water
Supply and Sewerage Authority (MWAUWASA). The Urban wards which get service
from MWAUWASA are Kirumba, Nyamanoro, Kitangiri, Pasiasi, Ilemela, Nyakato and
parts of Buswelu. The piped water network in Ilemela is about 220 Km and serve
about 298,210 out of 331,344 people which is about 65%.
Apart
from piped water supply in most of the municipal areas, there are also areas
serviced with Municipal Council, those rural wards are Bugogwa, Sangabuye and
the remaining parts of Buswelu. Those areas get service through underground
water (shallow wells and boreholes), traditional wells, rainwater harvesting,
spring source and wetland. Coverage of water supply in rural areas is about 51%
of total population.
