The change is the result of an escalation in local construction costs as well as a provision for subsurface water conditions, which may affect the final construction cost.

(g) Construction of “qanats”, underground dykes and tunnels for the transfer of subsurface water to the surface by gravity (for agriculture or consumption);

(a) The provision of support for and development of local technologies, including those promoting shallow wells, subsurface dams, water harvesting techniques, local seed varieties, planting of indigenous tree species and marketing of local products;

Support should be provided for the development and installation of simple local technologies, such as those promoting shallow wells, subsurface dams, water-harvesting techniques, for the access of water for domestic consumption and hygiene, and for economic activities such as cattle raising, brick making or small-scale agricultural activities.
