    (Addis Ababa University, 2011-05) Bambore, Mulu; Feseha, Mulugeta (PhD)
    While conducting this research first, initial assessment and field observation, consultation with different officials and concerned bodies was carried out to visualize the status and shortage of water in Durame town. Based on walk over survey, measured data, and information from different stakeholders, it is observed that the town has critical water shortage and system problem in the distribution and ancillary works. This water shortage problem has hindered individual endeavors, micro-enterprises, hotels, institution and investments etc. which are without or meager water supply. In this paper institutional, socioeconomic, environmental and technical related problems are assessed and discussed in detail. In light of the major identified problems recommendation are suggested. It is proposed that redesigning the existing distribution system by considering the proposed source as input; managing the proposed and the existing well field from potential pollutant; developing and implementing appropriate organizational structure parallel to the system can correct the problem.
