Success!!! We turned the water on in Buca last night and it all works! Even the furthest connections in the distribution system had good pressure and flow. Our design was solid, but we were certainly sweating initially placing the system into service - the most nervous time for an engineer is before you hit the ON button. It felt like a ton of bricks were lifted off our shoulders as we drove through the village and saw people using their new taps as usual.
Now it's time for a weary victory lap. Buca is planning a six-hour party for us tonight, and we're hoping we make it through the festivities without falling asleep!
