Abstract

This is an intervention assessment study concerned with technology-enabled allocation of water at the end-user level. Sourcing and distribution of water has always been a societal problem as well as to government. The methodology employed in this study involves collection of base data, intervention using a laboratory designed microprocessor model and collection of post intervention data. Descriptive statistical approach was used in analysing the data collected. The result of the study showed that water resource has been grossly abused through unaccounted water along with energy used. The study recommends this model to water managers where water remains a public utility and where water rate subsidy operates.
