3 Background The programme was initiated in 2008, first Green Drop report published in 2009. The Green Drop process measures and compares the results of the performance of WSIs, and subsequently rewards (or penalises) the institution upon evidence of their excellence (or failures) according to the minimum standards or requirements that has been defined. The Green Water Services Audit and the Progress Assessment Tool (PAT) are the tools whereby incentive- and risk-based regulation is conducted in South Africa. The Green Drop regulation programme is an Incentive Based Regulation that seeks to identify and develop the core competencies required for the sector that, if strengthened, will gradually and sustainably improve the level of wastewater management in South Africa.

4 Background Green Drop audits and certification takes place every 2nd year, using the full set of Green Water Services Audit (GWSA) criteria to assess performance of the wastewater system Output = Green Drop Report Progress assessments takes place during the Green Drop ‘gap’ year, using the PAT to assess the cumulative risk status of treatment systems Output = Green Drop Progress Report

5 Green Drop Overview Audits conducted for 152 Water Services Authorities (WSA or municipalities) in the 9 provinces of South Africa 824 Wastewater Treatment Works (WWTW) assessed in the municipal sector; 4 WWTW’s for Private Systems ( Sun City, Nedbank- Olwazini, Sasol Synfuels and Sasol Infrachem) 13 WWTW’s for Department of Environmental Affairs(Kruger National Park)

8 CUMULATIVE RISK COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS
The overall risk profile of wastewater treatment plants remained reasonably constant over the period 2008 to 2013. However, regress in the performance of municipal treatment facilities is evident for 2014. The lack of the incentive (non recognition of best performers due to non-release of the 2013 Green Drop Report) contributed to the regression. Results indicated that, despite significant regulatory pressure, processes or evidence are still lacking in terms of in-flow and/or effluent quality monitoring.

10 2014 National Risk Profile The majority of plants are in high risk (259 plants) and medium risk (218 plants), with 212 plants in critical risk and 135 plants in low risk space. The plants that regressed by taking up increased risk ratios will be placed under surveillance and continuously monitored for implementation of corrective interventions and risk mitigation measures.

33 Challenges Department of Water and Sanitation:
2015 Green Drop Assessments not undertaken due to delayed approval to advertise tender for appointment of PSP. Lack of capacity at DWS CD:WSR to undertake Green Drop Assessments internally. Delayed release of the Green Drop Report leads to lack of trust from the WSA’s and is an institutional risk. Water Services Authorities: Process Controlling: Insufficient skilled process controllers; Vacancies. Monitoring: Data uploading on Green Drop System( analytical results not loaded thus giving misleading compliance data countrywide). Water Services Institutions lack or minimal maintenance of sewer pump stations (lack of investment on infrastructure). Vandalism of infrastructure.

34 Recommendations The WSAs need to prioritize implementation of a risk-based action plan that would start to identify and address the most critical risks pertaining to wastewater treatment performance; Installation of meters for inflow measurement ; Undertake process audits to determine priority infrastructure interventions; Training and appointment of process controllers to meet minimum level of technical and supervisory expertise.

35 Recommendations Infrastructure asset management for optimal WWTW and pumpstations performance. Focused attention on sludge management. Release of the Green Drop Report to encourage data submission (Individual municipality assessments to be released once the report is completed). Explore opportunities for mutual partnerships with the private sector such as water stewardship e.g Kumba Iron Ore and Tsantsabane LM (Northern Cape) initiative to cooperate and improve wastewater services.

36 Way Forward Fast tracking the PSP appointment to undertake the 2015/2016 Green Drop Assessments. Assemble the Departments (DWS) internal team to conduct 2015 Green Drop Progress Assessment Tool (PAT) assessments.
