In 2005, Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) did not have enough water supply to meet demand from its 6 million inhabitants. Less than half the city was connected to the network. More than 40 percent of water produced was lost as leakage. Supply was intermittent.

Global Program to Support the Use of NRW PBCs

Objective:

Develop good practices on Performance Based Contract in the Marketplace to Manage Non-Revenue Water

The purpose of the Tool is to:

• –  Document current NRW Management Practices

• –  Prepare a quantitative Rating on the completeness and maturity of current NRW Practices – in six Practice Fields

• –  Identify strengths and weaknesses of the current practices, and priority areas for improvement

• –  Support preparation of an NRW Plan, Program and Budget

• –  Identify areas for possible “outsourcing”

• –  Monitor progress on improvement of Practices

In 2007, the World Bank committed to provide financing to support the modernization of the water sector in Honduras and promote decentralization of water services, through a project called PROMOSAS. The Tegucigalpa Performance Based Contract—to address non-revenue water—was created under this project to help the city’s water public utility to manage twin problems of a deficient water network and severe water deficit. Not only did the World Bank provide funding assistance it also assisted the city in project structuring and executing the tender process.

The adage “Where there’s muck, there’s money” rings ever truer as global municipal solid waste management budgets approach about $375 billion per year. Bringing PPP initiatives into the waste sector has the potential to introduce significant efficiency gains, but requires creative thinking to safeguard the desired outcomes. These examples show how mid-course corrections are critical to an iterative learning process.

Maharashtra is Number one state in pollution of rivers according to report published by Ministry of Water Resources. The worst polluted river in the state is ‘Panchganga’ according to report. More than 28 rivers are most polluted river in state. The increasing industrialization along the river are cost and direct entrance chemically polluted water in river flow are the major reasons. Chemical, processing, sugar and related Industries highly contribute to the river water pollution in Maharashtra state.

PROJECT HIGHLIGHTS

Thames Tideway Tunnel is widely considered to be a landmark project and it has received broad recognition for some of its leading features. Some of the project highlights are considered to be:

• An innovative example of a substantive operating utility business contracting out a significant bolt-on project rather than undertaking the project itself.

• Competitive tender process for cost of capital achieved benefits for customers in an uncertain regulatory environment.

As the World Bank and partners aim to support governments in the Middle East and North Africa address the challenges that confront the water and sanitation sector, the development of an effective regulatory framework is seen as increasingly salient.

The sequence of PPPs was as follows:

• Armenia’s experience with water PPPs began in 2000 with a 5-year management contract in the capital city Yerevan, which had a service area of about 1.2 million people;

• In 2004, a management contract was put in place for the Armenia Water and Sewerage Company (AWSC), a utility that covered almost 320 cities, 37 urban centers and 283 rural communities with a total population of about 620,000 spread through most of the secondary cities, towns and villages in the rest of the country;
