    Rob,

    This may be helpful:

    Water Resources Assessment of Jamaica circa 2001:

    http://large.stanford.edu/courses/20.../ace-feb01.pdf

    Both Hanover and Westmorland parishes have water aquafers in the limestone deposits.
    This study suggests hand pumps vs mechanical pumps.
    Mechanical pumps would drain the aquafer too quickly.

    NOTE: The repeated statements of water quality through out the report.

    All of us are praying for a quick solution to the water crisis in Negril.
