In the north-west of Mount Kenya a research project is being carried out. Water is one of the limiting factors in regard to further development of the region. The most important results from the hydrological investigations made so far, are presented in the map. An inventory of the water supply installations is also given. All known features of the technical installations are listed for reasons of a practical use. The explanatory text gives supplementary information. The hydrological data base is given by the measurements of 23 years (1960-1982). The hydrological behaviour of 12 river basins is described by means of the terms ‘long term discharge’, ‘yield’, ‘annual runoff regime’ and ‘duration curve of river runoff. Preliminary results are given concerning precipitation, spring- and groundwater and concerning the study in the test drainage basin Naro Moru River.
