Some of the early incorporation of stormwater engineering is evidenced in ancient Greece.

Rainwater collected from the roofs of houses and local institutions can make an important contribution to the availability of drinking water.

He enumerated coping strategies, such as polyculture, rainwater harvesting, migration, and afforestation.

People wading through the 'lakes' formed by the rain can also be seen.

So every one of our schools have rain water collection systems, very low cost.

A sensitivity analysis shows that the GSBR technology is less sensitive to land price and more sensitive to rain water flow.

Another important point of these sand banks is that when it rains, the rainwater soaks down into the soil. So, it's gone.

Farmers were still not allowed to use the water of Mas'adah Lake, dig wells or collect water from rain or snow.

Water collected from the ground, sometimes from areas which are especially prepared for this purpose, is called stormwater harvesting.

Rainwater harvesting is also widely employed as a relatively low cost option, both for household use and for small scale irrigation.

This is true both for the public infrastructure (drains, depressions where water accumulates during the rainy season, broken drinking water supply pipes) and in the private homes (roof top, drinking water tanks, and water collections inside and around the house).

The wall was obstructing many water run off flows in the Qalqiliya region that normally diverted water and prevented floods.

Now the water table is falling at a dangerous pace, as the underground water is being pumped much faster than the rains are recharging it.

Some Parties considered the following measures establishment of seed banks and identifying least cost measures, such as switching crops and or cultivars, soil improvement, and rainwater management.

It had taken years of careful planning and infrastructural works to alleviate the flood situation and channel as much rainwater as possible into reservoirs.

The more nutrients that enter the water (run off from nearby land), the more the algae are favored, until, at some point, they take over.

For instance, poor planning can be witnessed in the hastily built system that deviates the rain waters to protect the airport of Skanes Monastir and the neighboring presidential summer palace.

The water system starts with rain water, processed for drinking, then washing, then plant watering, then toilet flushing, and finally black water is recycled again for more plant watering.

Poor peasants use their own seeds from the preceding season, lack fertilizer, depend on rain rather than irrigation, and have little if any mechanization beyond a traditional hoe.

Specific support will focus on community management of local water resources, including rainwater harvesting (for use by households and schools, and groundwater recharge), micro watershed management and operational research.

The movement s influence within the judiciary ensures that its members transgressions remain unchallenged.

There are many ways of curbing big banks excesses.

The seasonal cycle of rainfall is marked, with the rainy season concentrated between December and March.

Water scarcity could be addressed through modern water conservation techniques in agriculture (such as drip irrigation, on farm water management, lining of watercourses and canals, etc.) and through more traditional techniques (such as rainwater harvesting).

The bad rainy season with rainfall far below the annual average occurred in summer 2006 07.

Living standards could be improved significantly and rapidly through low cost targeted investments in malaria control, school feeding programs, rainwater harvesting for drinking water, mobile health clinics, and boreholes for livestock and irrigation in appropriate locations.

Measures taken to improve drinking water facilities included establishing the drinking water supply through a network of piped systems, installing a water reservoir, providing mobile and fixed water tanks and testing drinking water.

Several delegations expressed support for paragraph 1, while others felt that it opened the door to many possible abuses.
