1. Portfolio Committee on Human Settlements Framework for the development of Water and Sanitation Master Plan By NDHS and DWA 31 October 2012

2. Scope of Project Development of a Sanitation Master Plan Water Supply, Sanitation and Hygiene (WASH) Conduct Institutional analysis of Sanitation strategy Development of technical variants for a sustainable operation of sanitation systems (on-site sanitation and water-borne sewer systems) Determination and presentation of future sanitation conditions using (ArcView) GIS Socio-economic survey (household interviews, survey of focus groups and key informants) 2

3. Ultimate aim of the Master Plan The ultimate aim of the Master Plan is to strengthen institutional capacity in order to: –attain Open Defecation Free (ODF) status, –Promote sustainable hygiene behavior for people’s health improvement, –Promote central, regional, district, municipality and –Institutionalise Village Development Committees (VDC) levels to back up sanitation movement at strategic and operational levels Top Secret 3

4. Guiding Principles of a Sanitation Master Plan ODF as the bottom line of all sanitation interventions. Universal access to sanitation in water supply and sanitation project areas. Informed technological choices for household toilets. Leadership of the local bodies in sanitation sector activities. VDC and municipality as the minimum basic unit of sanitation program intervention. Locally managed financial support mechanism Mandatory provisions of sanitation facilities in all institutions. Mandatory provision of toilet in new built up buildings. Focuses on hand washing with soap and other basic behavior build up process. Top Secret4

5. Four Pillars Four action steps for hygiene and sanitation promotion: Institutional building (formation and reformation of steering committee and coordination committees at the centre, region, district, municipality and VDC levels), planning and programming (formulation of unified plan/plan of action and capacity development activities), ODF campaigning (triggering and mass sensitization activities), post-ODF campaigning (total sanitation and behavioral build up process) Top Secret5

6. Access to Sanitation Access to effective sanitation in RSA, like in many African cities, is limited and is not keeping pace with the rapid rate of urbanisation and industrial growth in cities Less than 20% of citizens are currently served by a public sewer with the vast majority reliant on various forms of on-site sanitation of variable quality and effectiveness. Top Secret6

7. What Master Plan will entails The Masterplan will include key principal objectives. –Firstly, define realistic design criteria for an integrated sanitation system with special regard to institutional strengths and weaknesses, community preferences as well as environmental considerations –Secondly, identify areas where on-site sanitation proves the most economic and appropriate solution and, –thirdly, develop alternate solutions for on-site sanitation systems or a centralised water-borne sewer system. Top Secret7

8. Project components Population served: 50 million Project area: RSA size km² Sewer system connection rate at the time of the study: 20% Capacity of existing sewage treatment plant:m³/d Survey of some 10,000 households Group consultations/ sector/ constituency, etc Top Secret8

9. Water and Sanitation value chain Potable water supply Drinking water treatment Waste Water Disposal Waste Water Treatment Waste Water reuse Top Secret9

10. Portable and Drinking Water Treatment OBJECTIVE: extension of the existing water supply systems as well as complex rehabilitation and modernisation of the filter halls and filtration plants of all major waterworks ( eg 27 wastewater treatment works and 4 potable water treatment works in the eThekwini Municipal Area) PROJECT SCOPE Audit of all Water Resources, dams and rivers Improved harvesting of rainwater Enhancement of all Water Works at various provinces Topographic surveys Subsoil investigations Hydrogeological studies Geophysical studies Hydraulic investigations Sites selection Top Secret10

11. Waste Water disposal OBJECTIVE: Review of designs of all waste- and stormwater disposal facilities in most major cities and towns of RSA PROJECT SCOPE Conceptual design for determining the appropriate drainage systems Hydrodynamic calculations for the existing and newly planned sewer networks country-wide Design of the combined sewer system (all planning stages) Treatment of the surface water runoff eg from all national highways Simulation of surface water inflows from external areas Study of retention measures Co-ordinated planning of utility lines for all water preservation projects Top Secret11

12. Waste Water Treatment OBJECTIVE: Rehabilitation and extension of Waste Water disposal facilities in major town and cities PROJECT SCOPE appraisal of all WWDFs Detailed engineering designs conducted by municipalities Construction supervisions planned and costed for new plants Project management & cost controlling measures initiated Technical assistance availed for all municipalities Awareness building for all stakeholders Public / Community relations to ensure citizen activism Top Secret12

13. Waste Water reuse OBJECTIVE: Master Plan for en effective and sustainable use of treated effluent and other sources of reclaimed water PROJECT SCOPE Inventory of all WWTPs, Water Boards, PPPs, sec 78 assessments Economic / financial studies – financing modeling Socio-economic studies – grey and clean water/ blue drop Subsoil investigations Hydrogeological studies Hydraulic investigations Geographic Information Systems (GIS) Pre-feasibility studies and Preliminary designs Top Secret13

14. Funding and estimated costs Sanitation requirement based on 30-year timeline Demography and population spread and growth trends Urbanization and fast growing cities key to future city infrastructure planning The fiscus will fund most infrastructure programme estimated at trillion plus For every R1 spent on water, R2 is required for sanitation Top Secret14

15. Project timeline The process commenced in October 2012 Time lines will be negotiated Top Secret15
