III, DETAILED WORK PLAN

A. Task 4: Inventory of Existing Infonnation

Overview' While much information exists relative to the MWSI project's focus
areas, relatively little. is readily available and understandable from a regional and
cooperative perspective, As a first step toward development of cooperative water
supply solutions, an adequate and readily accessible knowledge base must be
provided. Task 4 consists of a series of 14 sub-tasks designed to provide such a
knowledge base. In their respective subject areas, these sub-tasks will:

. review and compile readily available existing information,

. identify information disparities,

. make recommendations to the T AC to conduct, contract for or sponsor studies
to supply critical missing information, and

. report in layman's terms on this background review.
