This illustration of the design for an innovative multiple use water supply system that was recently constructed in the hills of Nepal. It included two storage tanks linked to a spring source, the first for domestic water and the second, only filled after domestic demands are met, for small-scale irrigation. There are two separate piped networks to supply houses and small irrigated plots where efficient drip irrigation techniques are utilised.
