Abstract
Providing the rural poor with safe drinking water has been a national priority for the South African government since 1994, in line with the internationally embraced millennium development goals. After more than a decade of sustained and significant investment, it is time to address the sustained efficiency of the multitude of rural water supply systems that had been built. This paper reports on a proposed framework for allowing the rapid assessment of such a small rural water supply system.
