Operator Institutional Arrangements Projects

TRB

Armenia flagArmenia: With assistance from the International Development Association (IDA), the capital city of Yerevan and surrounding municipalities are recieving more  reliable water services. This has been accomplished through the collective impact of the Municipal Development Project which supported the introduction of a private international operator to manage Yerevan’s water utility. This was followed by two interelated initiatives in the form of the Municipal Water and Wastewater Project and Yerevan Water and Wastewater Project which continue to strengthen Yerevan’s water supply and coverage  while reducing environmental pollution.
 Burkina Faso: The  Ouagadougou Water Supply Project increased access to adequate and reliable potable water through expansion of the distribution, and tertiary water networks, and, through improvements in the urban water sub-sector management. Project components include construction, technical assistance and capacity building. The project supports the corporate and technical development of the National Office for Water and Sanitation (ONEA), as well as developing, and implementing management training programs. 
 Colombia: The key objective of the  First Santa Fe Water Supply & Sewerage Rehabilitation Project is to support and consolidate the transition of Empresa de Acueducto y Alcantarillado de Bogota (EAAB) from a technically capable but operationally inefficient public service agency to a commercially-run public utility company. The Feature Story on  Local Solutions Improve Water Supply and Sanitation Services in Colombia stresses that the government has been a pioneer in adopting sound water sector policies, and has made substantial progress in the expansion of water supply and sanitation.
 Vietnam: In 1993, Hai Phong Water Supply Company was mostly accountable to the local authority (its owner, the Hai Phong Provincial People Committee) and the central government. Service provision to customers was very poor. As a reaction, the HPPC hired a new utility management team with a clear mandate. The utility has extended its water supply system by 42500 connections, financed by the World Bank  Water Supply Project
 Gaza: The  Water and Sanitation Services Project addressed urgent priorities aimed at improving the quality, quantity and management of water and wastewater services in Gaza. The project improved the water supply system considerably. Unaccounted-for water dropped from around 50 percent in 1995 to 30 percent in 2001 and per capita water consumption rose by 50 percent.  The Management Contract in Gaza is about the key development objectives of improving the water supply and sanitation services in Gaza.
