ABSTRACT:
This is a method and apparatus for the collection and utilization of environmental water in remote locations wherein the invention features the utilization of dome-protected water collection reservoirs suitable to collect rain in major or minor amounts, evaporative moistures such as dew, fog and the like. The invention is characterized by the utilization of a trough-like member having a dome-like cover to prevent undue evaporation and wherein the dome cover is provided with access ports such that animals can obtain water from the collected water. Alternately, the dome covering may be omitted and a conduit provided from the trough to another non-evaporative container.
