The goal is to increase water storage by 148.6 million cubic metres by 2026 and enhance sustainability of constructed water structures.
Ministry of Water also aims at building and maintaining 70km of dykes, 125 water pans and dams, and drilling 203 boreholes.
You may soon be required to have gutters on your house or building to harvest and store rain water, once regulations by the Ministry of Water are enforced.
The water harvesting and storage regulations are now in place, while the strategy is at the final stage of Cabinet approval, said Water Cabinet Secretary Sicily Kariuki at the launch of the National Water Harvesting and Storage Authority’s Strategic Plan 2022–2027 in Nairobi yesterday.
