Log the weekly condition of a Kibera water kiosk (2026-07-20)

Kibera's private water kiosks are how most residents in villages like Kianda and Gatwekera buy their daily water, but a leaking tap or broken meter at one kiosk can go unfixed for weeks with no record of the problem. A short weekly condition log builds the case to get a fault fixed fast. Standard: WHO Guidelines for Drinking-water Quality; SDG 6.1 Proof: weekly kiosk condition log with photos Method (WHO Guidelines for Drinking-water Quality; SDG 6.1): 1. Visit the kiosk at its normal operating hours. 2. Check the tap, meter, and storage tank for leaks or damage. 3. Photograph any fault found, with a close-up and a wide shot. 4. Note the queue length and price posted that day. 5. Submit the log with photos and the date. Done when: weekly kiosk condition log with photos

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 30–60 minutes. Method of record: EPA drinking-water sampling (3Ts / LCR first-draw where lead is in scope)

Bring

• GPS-capable phone
• test kit for each named analyte (nitrate/coliform/arsenic/lead as specified)
• clean sample bottle + label
• nitrile gloves
• camera

Steps

1. 1. Navigate to the sampling point; confirm GPS is inside the posting radius; record the waypoint.
2. 2. Photograph the tap or wellhead with a legible timestamp.
3. 3. If first-draw is required, sample after >=6h stagnation; if flushed, run the tap 2-3 minutes first, then sample.
4. 4. Fill the bottle without touching the inside; cap immediately.
5. 5. Run each test per kit instructions; wait the exact develop/incubation time; read and record every value with units.
6. 6. Record coliform as present/absent after the stated incubation window.
7. 7. Enter all readings, units, GPS, time, and photos into the proof record; sign it.

If it does not match the plan

• Nitrate > 10 mg/L -> tag 'exceeds EPA MCL'; advise no infant consumption pending certified-lab confirmation.
• Total coliform present -> advise disinfection + retest; recommend lab confirmation.
• Arsenic > 10 ppb or Lead > 15 ppb -> tag exceedance; recommend certified-lab confirmation before any consumption guidance.

What counts as done

• GPS waypoint recorded inside the posting radius
• Timestamped photo of the exact sampling point
• Each required analyte recorded with a numeric value + units (or present/absent)
• Sampling type (first-draw vs flushed) explicitly noted

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
