Former 18A needing advice, (18A = no actual hard skill possessed, of course):

I saw a presentation from a young woman at my church today, about a mission trip she took to the Dom Rep and Haiti. During the Haiti portion of the trip, she commented that the village obtained their washing, cooking and drinking water from a small creek. They probably could use a well, one that could be drilled/built by indig. Any ideas? I've looked into the Agua Yaku type well in the past, but have no experience with this and could use some advice.

Anyone, Bueller?

FWIW - We have several extensive threads here dealing with procuring potable water.
