Water samples from three sources (water tanks, distribution points, and beneficiaries’ tanks) will be collected and FRC tests as part of the standard practice for quality monitoring.
●	Water supply in communities: Rehabilitation of 3 water pumping stations including maintenance and provision of new electrical and mechanical equipment, constructing two solar powered systems, and supporting the running cost for operating these stations as well as establishing the cost recovery system.

Emergency shelter activities will target 7 camps which are same camps targeted under WASH rehabilitation activities (in Maaret Tamsrin and Armanaz sub-districts) for a total of 6620 IDP individuals. The activities are gravelling of roads post WASH rehab activities to ensure safe and dignified living conditions for the IDPs residing in these temporary shelter sites, and mitigate the effects of floods in winter. Levelling and gravelling of roads will  be conducted after installing/rehabilitating the water and sewage networks. Where needed and in case the road gets higher than the tents due to the gravelling activities, affected tents will be provided with ground insulation to raise the tents to a level preventing water leak into the tents. 
The 7 proposed camps are registered on CCCM ISIMM tool with Pcodes as BoQs show.
