Errata
In the section "Discharging characteristics - Rule of thumb" there are a number of "it's" that should be "its". Too, there's a sentence fragment "which is quickly dropping to" which would probably sound better as "which quickly drops to".
Many thanks for the book!

I enjoyed reading your book, especially the case studies. I found a couple minor typos:
Page 215:, line 8-9: This rural city, which seems more more like a big village, sits up the the river Niger just before it dips South crossing into Niger and onto Nigeria.
page 225 10 lines from bottom: For this first phase, a more thorough security system was left to be implemented in the future,, when time could be found to find an easier interface for controlling access.
