2. The Off-Grid Sanitation Construction was the continuation of the earlier Phase One project that was completed under an Environmental Justice grant from the US EPA. Phase One provided safe drinking water for families who were obtaining their drinking water from unsafe local water sources. The project installed temporary water storage systems in 10 homes in Black Falls and launched a community water hauling coop to deliver water from a new pipeline access point constructed by the US Indian Health Service.
3. The Phase Two project was a collaboration between US Indian Health Service and the Black Falls Water Project, a coop of families in the Black Falls area of the Navajo Nation.
4. The IHS installed solar-powered underground cisterns, septic systems, and provided the plumbing for the bathrooms. The families were responsible for the bathroom construction and were assisted by the coop.
5. The project continued the Grassroots Driven Development approach where the local community manages the planning and implementation of development projects.
6. Work on the project was a joint effort between the community coop and the families. Here, John Knight breaks ground for his foundation.
