Rainwater Catchment - Intro

Project Team Leader: Eric Sauder

The largest problem currently facing Jacob's Ladder is the lack of water on site. Residents and caretakers currently rely on water trucked in from nearby towns, which is not a sustainable long-term solution. Due to the remoteness of the site, it is not feasible to pipe in water to meet the daily need. The water table is also very deep, eliminating the possibility of drilling wells.
