The Development Objective of the Urban Water Supply and Sanitation Project is to increase access to sustainable water supply and sanitation services in Addis Ababa and four secondary cities. The project is designed (i) to produce and distribute more water to reduce the alarming gap between the supply and demand for water in Addis Ababa and four other secondary cities; (ii) to improve operational efficiency in all five cities by reducing non-revenue water, and improving financial management, billing and collection, and customer management; and (iii) to improve governance by the water boards and to introduce performance incentives for operators. There are three components to the project. Component 1, Addis Ababa Water Supply and Sanitation, will provide funds to Addis Ababa City to: (i) produce and distribute more water and improve sanitation services; (ii) improve operational efficiency by reducing non revenue water, and improving financial management, billing and collection, and customer management; and (iii) to improve governance by the water boards and to introduce performance incentives for operators. Component 2, Secondary Cities Water Supply and Sanitation, will provide funds to the secondary cities to: (i) produce and distribute more water and improve sanitation services; (ii) improve operational efficiency by reducing non revenue water, and improving financial management, billing and collection, and customer management; and (iii) to improve governance by the water boards and to introduce performance incentives for operators. Component 3, Program Management and M&E, will provide funds for costs associated with project implementation, to synthesize existing water and sanitation access data to determine baseline figures and to monitor progress under this project. This component also includes training, workshops and other capacity building measures and support for environmental and social management.
