<p><span class="em">E09: main method of water supply</span>
<br />Because water is one of the basic human needs, it is the subject of many investment programs (among other programs, we can cite the PEPAM) from the government and the community. The purpose of this question is to assess the main mode of water supply used by the household. Further (in question E10), we will deal mainly with water used for drinking only.
<br /><span class="pg">[p. 61]</span>
<br />We distinguish safe water sources, including water vendors, tanker services, taps (indoor, neighboring, public) and other protected sources (protected wells, boreholes) on the one hand and, on the other hand, unsafe water sources which are unprotected sources (unprotected wells) and open-air water points (source/waterways).</p>

If the household has a mode or several modes of water supply, go with hold the most used type. If the source varies depending on the season, go with the source at the time of your visit.
