EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This Annual Progress Report is prepared as per WSDP PAD 2006, it describes and analyses performance for the period from July, 2009 to June, 2010. It captures what has been implemented during the financial year 2009/2010 in accordance to the WSDP work-plan, budget and procurement plan of which implementation is done funds from the basket and earmarked projects as sourced from development partners and the government. It is envisaged that the report will be useful in planning and decision making with regard to further implementation of the Programme.

During 2009/2010, Component 1 of WSDP, which is Water Resources Management, the approved budget was Tshs. 24.47 billion of which, Tshs 3.1billion was for water laboratory; and TShs 979.5million was collected as economic water fees in all 9 water basins. The fund released during the year was Tshs. 16.55billion where Tsh 15.45 billion equivalent to 93% was spent. The component experienced progressive improvements in all sub components except priority water resources investments, which experienced slow progress.

With regard to Component 2; which is Scaling up of Rural Water Supply and Sanitation, the approved budget was TShs. 120 billion out of which, TShs 78.6 billion, equivalent to 66%; was released including earmarked projects. A total of TShs. 60.54 billion, equivalent to 80 %; was spent, mostly because expenditure performance in LGAs was 33% due to the fact that most of works were in the initial stages. Performance in LGAs were noted in the areas of capital investment, where out of 5,726 planned water points; 3,000 were built/rehabilitated, which is equivalent to 52.3%. These are enough to serve 585,250 people. Also, a total of 1,027 demonstration latrines were built.

The approved budget for Component 3; which is Urban Water Supply and Sanitation, was Tsh 127.4.bn, out of which, TShs 84 billion (Tshs 49billion from basket including local funds and Tshs 35billion from earmarked partners), equivalent to 66% were released. Total expenditure performance for this component during the year was 83% of the released fund. Tshs 8.3billion was used for management support and Tshs 61.2billion was used for investments, where large part of it was invested in Dar es Salaam. Performance of this component continued to improve in most of urban areas. For instance, Water production for 19 UWSAs in the year 2009/2010 increased to 113.11 million m3 compared to 110.64 million m3 in 2008/2009. Water production in Dar es Salaam increased to 92.7 million m3 in 2009/2010 compared to 91.7 million m3 in 2008/2009; and the overall production of 205.78 million m3 is equivalent to 67.1% of the total water demand in regional urban centers, which is 306 million m3. The percentage of population served stood at 84% at 19 average hours of service in the 19 regional UWSAs by June 2010.

The budget for Component 4, which is Institutional strengthening and Capacity Building; was TShs. 21.9billion, out of which, TShs 14.6 billion, equivalent to 65.7%, was released. The total expenditure performance for this component was TShs 14.5, which is 99.8% of the released funds. Using this amount, several projects were implemented, including rehabilitation/construction of offices at Ubungo; design of new office building; acquisition and

vii

distribution of working tools such as vehicles, motorcycles, computers, printers and furniture delivered to the IAs; training of MoWI staff, LGAs and Regional Secretariats; acquisition of Drilling equipments for Drilling and Dam Construction Agency (DDCA); transformation of the Water Resources Institute (WDMI) into an agency; Preparation of the programme management information system and provision of technical support to EWURA.

Other areas of good progress include strengthening the compliance to environmental and social safeguards; where 16 of 34 WRM projects were screened for environmental and social impacts and out of 622 dams evaluated, 18 dams were prioritized for rehabilitation. In RWSS component, only 32 districts have submitted their environment reports; where 208 projects have been screened, out of which, only 10 projects need full EIA. In the UWSS Component, out of 56 sub-projects; 31 projects were screened and 21 qualified for full EIA. The remaining 10 projects fell under category C that required a checklist. For strengthening the capacity in this area, the MoWI has recruited 11 environmental engineers and 8 social experts.

The progress on procurement was also good as three Basins (Pangani, Rufiji and Wami/Ruvu) established Procurement Management Units (PMUs) and their Tender Boards in 2009. The component has 10 consultancies under preparation for Wami/Ruvu, one consultancy procured for Rufiji; and 5 consultancies in execution stage in Wami/Ruvu. For RWSS Component, out of 132 LGAs, 123 have signed the consultancy contracts to support LGAs in provision of technical and facilitation services. Consultants engaged by LGAs are in different stages of implementation. Under UWSS Component, 41.5% of the planned contracts for consultancy services have been initiated as scheduled in the procurement plan for 19 UWSAs, DAWASA/DAWASCO, 118 small towns/DUWSAs and seven National Projects. In the IS&CB Component, the procurement exercise covers MoWI headquarters (including WDMI, DDCA and MCS). A total of 36 contracts have been signed. About 26.4% of planned contracts were initiated.

Main Challenges: The challenges noted during the joint supervision missions conducted in September 2009 and March 2010 was found to agree with those reported in the components. These include inadequate sector monitoring system that affects quality, timeliness and accuracy of program reporting; degradation of water sources and catchment areas; limited sector capacity at all levels; and low community participation in the implementation of water sub-projects in terms of cash and in kind.

2 SUMMARY OF PROGRESS - FY 2009/2010

2.1 Summary of Progress - Component 1

Implementation of Component 1: Water Resources Management and Development is

progressively improving compared to previous years. Sub components 1A (Strengthening basin

level water resources management) realized achievement in strengthening and establishment

of WUAs, strengthening of water resources monitoring networks and protection of important

water sources as well as monitoring and enforcement. The sub-component achieved its plan by

81.2%. 1B (Integrated river and lake basin management and development plans) Preparation of

two (Rufiji and Internal Drainage basins) out of seven IWRM Plans started. Procurement of

consultants for the other five (Pangani, Ruvuma, Lake Tanganyika, Lake Rukwa and Lake Nyasa

basins) was at a stage of short listing the consultants. Preparation of IWRM plan for Lake

Victoria basin will be funded by Lake Victoria Basin commission under LVEMP II while for

Wami/Ruvu basin it will be funded by JICA.

2

Preparation of Terms of Reference for the two plans started during the year. and 1D

(Determination of quality of different water sources in the country and strengthening water

laboratories) made significant progress, A total of 3,655 water samples out of 3,500 targeted

were collected from different water sources including wells, rivers, springs and lakes and

analyzed for physical-chemical and bacteriological tests. 3,456 samples (94.6%) were found to

be within the required standards. A total of 60 monitoring water points have been identified in

Dar es Salaam; Sub component 1C (Priority water resources management infrastructure

investment) is still slow.


For the period of F/Y 2009/2010, out of 5,726 water points planned to be built/rehabilitated 3,000 water points were built/rehabilitated, which is equivalent to 52.3%. Also, out of 3,000 water points built/rehabilitated 2,341 are functioning, which is equivalent to 78%. The functioning water points are enough to serve 585,250 people. A total of 1,027 latrines were built. Details for the year can be seen in Annex B1(a) and Annex B1(b). Up to June 2010, the provision of consultancy services in ten villages for LGAs was at various stages of implementation including procurement of consultants in 10 villages, prepare inception reports, conducting scoping studies, detailed designs, preparation of bidding documents for drilling of exploratory boreholes and reaming them if found to be productive, advertisement and evaluation of bidding documents for exploratory boreholes and procuring contractors for construction of water sub projects. During the F/Y 2009/2010 capacity development guidelines and strategies were disseminated to all LGAs and RSs. The documents were used to develop capacity development plans in the respective institution.


During the year 2009/2010 the overall performance shows a continuous improvement in most of the indicators in almost all UWSAs as compared to the year 2008/2009. General view of the performance is summarized as follows:- (i) The water production of 19 UWSAs in the year 2009/2010 increased to 113.11 million m3 compared to 110.64 million m3 reported in 2008/2009. Dar es Salaam reported water production of 92.7 million m3 in 2009/2010 as compared to 91.7 million m3 of 2008/2009. The overall production reported of 205.78 million m3 is 67.1% proportion of the estimated current water demand of all regional urban centers which stands at 306 million m3; (ii) Unaccounted for Water in the year 2009/2010 including Dar es Salaam improved to 35%

from 37% reported by the end of 2008/2009. This improvement has been due to the efforts made by most of the UWSAs to control non revenue water, rehabilitation of water distribution system and increased domestic metering.

Status of Implementation for activities under this category is as follows:- (i) Strengthening of the Dam Safety Unit

Visual Evaluation/Inventory of dams Total of 641 dams were evaluated in Lake Victoria, Lake Tanganyika, Wami/Ruvu, Internal Drainage, Pangani, Rufiji and Ruvuma and Southern Coast. Most of them found to have problems in the: embankment settlement comprising leakage, erosion of crest, upstream and downstream slopes, availability of holes and bushes; spillway comprising concrete crest weir, bottom disposition and presence of bushes; On the reservoir comprising retention capacity and floating weeds were evaluated. For the dam inventory; dam location, water use for the dam, dam type, size of the dam (embankment, spillway and reservoir), construction materials used and spillway type were identified. Generally observation for the visual evaluation and dam inventory can be summarized as:- (a) More than 80% of the dams are Homogenous (Earth fill dams) and are poorly

constructed; (b) Most of the dams experience embankment settlements especially in Wami/Ruvu Basin

(70%);

13

(c) Most of the dams are in bushes so they hinder access e.g. Ruvuma and Southern Coast Rivers Basin 43% of the dams are in bushes, Wami/Ruvu Basin (68%) and Lake Victoria Basin (78%);

(d) Most of the dams have anthills and holes: Ruvuma and Southern Coast Rivers Basin 42%, Wami Ruvu Basin (25%) and Lake Victoria Basin (84%). This could be one reason for failure of some of these dams;

(e) Some of the dams are broken;Ruvuma and Southern Coast Rivers Basin (3 dams) are broken, Wami Ruvu Basin (8 dams) and Lake Victoria Basin (13 dams);

(f) Leakage and inadequate spillway is a general problem to all visited dams.

The DDCA Strategic Plan and its Client Service Charter are in place. The corporate business plan was completed in July 2010. The recruitment of the Chief Executive Officer for DDCA is in the vetting stage before interview; while the recruitment of other two senior posts (Technical Support Manager and Business Support Manager) will follow after the CEO.

Support Water Development and Management Institute and other Sector related training Institutions

Contract for purchase of 3 Pick up Double Cabin vehicles and 1 minibus was signed in February 2010 and delivery is expected to be in October, 2010. Opening of the bid documents for purchase of laboratory equipments and chemicals reagents was done in June, 2010, evaluation was conducted and completed, the report was sent to the WB for approval. Recruitment of the Chief Executive Officer is at the vetting stage; however Chairman of the Board is in place. ToR for procuring consultant for the design and supervision services for the rehabilitation and construction of hostel blocks, lecture theatres, laboratories, Classrooms and conference hall were sent to World Bank for No objection by mid July, 2010. As part of Capacity Building process the contract for purchase of library books was signed and over 50% of first consignment was delivered to WDMI. The rest will be delivered early in September, 2010. Student enrollment has increased from 100 in 2008 up to 120 per intake in 2009/2010 academic year. However rate of increase in student’s enrollment at WDMI is rather low due to limited number of students sponsored by MoWI, and the number of privately sponsored students is not growing and it is likely to decrease due to lack of loan opportunities.

For instance, last year 25 female students were qualified for registration but could not enroll as they were not able to pay. The curricular for two new courses (Diploma in Irrigation Engineering and Bachelor of Science in Water Supply Engineering) had been prepared and submitted to NACTE for approval by the mid of June, 2010. Currently, the WDMI is implementing the capacity Building projects under EU/GTZ project on human resources and organizational development in the Water Sector. A draft report on market needs and demands of WDMI was ready in the mid of March, 2010. The Institute is also developing a plan for becoming a competitive and autonomous training institution with sustainable funding. The project also involves improvement of the capacity of WDMI to offer improved training programmes and courses as part of the continuous education scheme in the water sector. This includes developing appropriate curriculum and start a process of course accreditation, develop new/update staff capacities, market the specific courses through website and other means and conduct initial courses.

Support of the NGOs and CBOs Awareness training on the role of CSOs and CBOs in implementing WSDP, opportunities and challenges in Water Resources Management Act and Water Supply and Sanitation, understanding of NAWAPO, Water Sector Reforms, Water Sector Development Strategic Plans and Framework for Capacity Development in the Water Sector has been provided to 65 representatives from CBOs and CSOs in February, 2010.

4 PROGRESS ON ENVIRONMENTAL AND SOCIAL SAFEGUARDS Safeguards comprising Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) provide

mechanisms for ensuring that potential environmental and social impacts of the project are

identified, assessed and mitigated as appropriate, through an environmental and social

screening process. In this way, the results of the screening process can complement the

Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) process.

The safeguard issues include procedures for meeting the environmental and social

management requirements, as outlined in the EIA guidelines. It also complements Operational

Procedures for environmental management of projects where specific details are not yet

known.

The Environmental Assessment category assigned for the WSSP is “A”. The Safeguards policies triggered for the Project include: (i) Environmental Assessment (OP/BP 4.01), (ii) Involuntary Resettlement (OP/BP 4.12), Safety of Dams (OP/BP 4.37), and Projects on International Waterways (OP/BP 7.50). Both the Environmental and Social Management Framework (ESMF) and the Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF) were in place when the implementation of the project commenced in July 1, 2008. The program finances the implementation of civil works and the environmental and social impacts of these activities are supposed to be monitored by MoWI’s Environmental Compliance Unit (ECU) staff.

Planned Activities carried out in this category are outlined below:- Sub-Project Screening

Continue with a retrospective review of the approved sub-projects in the annual work plans of the districts and business plans of the utilities that have been approved for funding or have received funds under the WSDP;

To determine if and how the environmental screening was done and whether any corrective action is required;

Carry out awareness and training on the utilization of the ESMF and RPF to all Implementing Agencies.

Communication Strategy Action Plan

Develop a Public Consultations and Participation Plan at National, District and Community levels and intensify the program awareness/sensitization/implementation process particularly to Regional/District/community level;

Conduct Stakeholder Workshop and Develop Water Sector Reform Poverty and Social Impact Analysis ToRs.

4.1 Component 1- Water Resources Management

Environmental and social screening exercise has been undertaken for 16 projects out of 34

projects including basin office buildings, out of which three (3) projects fall under category “A”

which are Kimbiji well field, Kidunda and Ndembera dams and the remaining 7 (Office building)

are of category C. The screening criteria used were the one provided in the ESMF. Moreover on

this year also, the environmental and social screening exercise has been completed in 18 dams

in the internal drainage basin and one dam in Lake Victoria Basins. 622 dams have been

evaluated in all 9 basins. 18 dams have been prioritized for rehabilitation and hence the

screening forms were completed for final evaluation. Engineering drawings for all 18 prioritized

dams of Internal Drainage Basin and one dam in Lake Victoria Basins has been completed.

Preparation of tender documents have already been prepared, six tender were prepared. Also

topographical survey of Mchema profiling in Masasi district, Mtwara region has been carried

out. Designs BOQ, and engineering drawings will be produced, and tender document will be

produced for also procurement process.

Safeguards reports for projects from Rukwa, Wami-Ruvu, Rufiji, Pangani and Lake Victoria basins were received. Pangani basin has 43 projects, 37 projects were screened, 35 projects fall under category C and 2 projects fall under category B; Lake Victoria basin has no new projects; Rufiji basin has 2 projects but screening has not being done; Wami-Ruvu basin has 60 projects, only 2 projects have been screened (Kidunda dam and Karibu Textiles Ltd) and fall under category A, in that case EIA was required. EIA for Kimbiji and Mpera well fields has been done; the EIS has been distributed to stakeholders for comments. Consultant for conducting EIA for Kidunda dam has been procured and the work to be conducted after down payment is done. Meanwhile the consultant is collecting data and establishing office premises. Karibu Textiles Ltd has completed and submitted EIA and Environmental audit reports.

Municipal/Industrial/Mines inspections for environmental/social compliancy

Other activities on environmental protection includes Municipal/Industrial/Mines inspections

and water quality monitoring for compliance were conducted where by 3,380 samples were

analyzed to ensure the quality of water and results showed that 96.6% of samples were of good

quality for human consumption.

The water pollution control was also conducted, where by the Ministry continued to ensure the

quality of effluent before discharged to the water bodies. About 265 samples were collected

from sewerage systems at Arusha, Morogoro, Dodoma and Iringa municipalities, Dar es salaam

and Mwanza Cities for analysis. The results showed that 88% of the samples were of required

standards of effluent prior to discharge.

4.2 Component 2 – Local Level: Scaling –Up of Rural WSS Delivery

Only 32 districts have submitted their environment reports. Those districts are the ones within Kagera, Tanga, Morogoro, Tabora, Rukwa, and Singida regions. Only 208 projects have been screened and only 10 projects need full EIA, those projects should be tendered for EIA (see Table 3). The remaining category C projects shall proceed with construction after establishing a checklist for environmental and social management and monitoring plan.

4.3 Component 3: Scaling Up of Urban WSS Delivery

Under the Urban WSS there were 56 approved sub-projects including small towns in the annual

work plans. Only 31 projects have undertaken screening process and 21 qualified for full EIA,

the remaining 10 projects fell under category C that required a checklist. 4 projects have

completed the EIA reports but not yet submitted to NEMC for approval. All the projects under

DAWASA were screened and classified as “B Category” while the project in Mwanza Water

supply and Sanitation phase II was “A Category” hence both are preparing ToR for EIA.

Songea, Dodoma, Mbeya and Pangani Urban Water Supply Authority have done the screening

and classified their projects as “C Category” of which after screening no further assessment was

required except an environmental management checklist. The remaining projects are at

different stages of preparation.

In general UWSS is implementing water supply projects to meet MDGs target at 95% while the

provision of sewerage services is at 35%. This ratio is insufficient to reduce the impacts of

wastewater pollution in urban areas. UWSS have been urged to review their plans and include

in their immediate intervention the issue of wastewater removal from un-sewered settlements

areas.

Total number of projects qualified for environmental screening under WSDP and the current

status are outlined in the table below:-

5.2 Component 2: Scaling Up of Rural Water Supply and Sanitation

The financial requirements for implementation of WSDP for Financial Year 2009/2010 has been calculated considering the slow pace of implementation in the first two years (FY 2007/2008 and FY 2008/2009). The first two years marked as a preparatory phase which focused on procurement of goods, works and services. It is now expected that for the FY 2009/2010, the priority will be scaling up the implementation of large scale schemes. Approved Budget and Expenditures

The total approved budget for the year 2009/2010 for Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Sub programme was TShs. 120billion (Local contribution TShs. 14.37billion and foreign contribution TShs105.7 billion), out of which, the released funds were TShs 78.6 billion, was released including those for earmarked projects. This is equivalent to 66% of the total budget approved. A total of TShs. 60.54 billion was spent by the component which is equivalent to 80 %. However, total funds available for this component including opening balance totaled Tshs 132.7billion therefore, this represent a performance of 45%. Of the amount spent by LGAs infrastracture sub-componet shows expenditure performance of only 33% because most of the works were in the initial stages. Most expenditure were recorded in the sub component of office construction and consultancy.

Other sources of funds

For FY 2009/2010, a total of Shs 8.26billion were utilized in implementation of sub projects of

water supply and sanitation. Out of this amount Donors contributed Shs 6.6billion LGAs

6.3 Component 3: Urban Water Supply and Sanitation

Procurement under this component covers 19 UWSAs, DAWASA/DAWASCO, 118 small towns/DUWSAs and some National Projects (KASHWASA, Chalinze, Wanging’ombe, Mugambo/Kiabakari, Maswa, HTM and Makonde). Although this component has been able to contract consultancy services more rapidly than component 2, nevertheless 41.5% of the planned tenders have been initiated as scheduled in the procurement plan. This can be attributed to the delays in the completion of design and tender documents. Likewise some works contracts were frontloaded on the basis that consultants would be procured as scheduled. The main procurement challenges in this Component include: Delays in the completion of design and preparation of tender documents; The designed works estimates are far beyond Procurement Plan estimates; The consultants will be instructed by the user departments to scale down the activities by putting them into phases.

6.4 Component 4: Institutional Strengthening and Capacity Building

Procurement under this component covers the procurement done by MoWI (including WDMI, DDCA and MCS). A total of 36 contracts have been signed. About 26.4% of component 4 contracts were initiated as scheduled in the Procurement Plan. It has been agreed that one consultant will be hired in FY 2009/2010 to do annual ESMF/RPF audits, annual financial audits and annual procurement audits; evaluation report has been approved by the Bank and NOL obtained for further process. For the financial year 2008/09 procurement audit has been executed by National Audit Authority (NAO). Regarding supply and distribution of capacity building equipment, three aggregated tenders on supply of motorcycles, motor vehicles and office equipment for Ministry of Water and Irrigation and all other WSDP implementing entities were tendered out under the MoWI. Contracts have been signed and delivery and supply of goods has been achieved well though there are delays in shipping of items. Distribution of the motor vehicles, motor cycle and office equipment has been done for about 50%. Experience during the first two years of implementation of WSDP has clearly demonstrated that the traditional annual planning and budgeting exercise is of limited practical use on a large sector program where the project cycle from release of the EoI to the conclusion of works may span well over 3 years and will rarely take less than 2 years. Added to this the many uncertainties and externalities in the procurement process make any accurate planning and budgeting extremely difficult. The decentralized design of WSDP, that has delegated the responsibility for program’s procurement and contract and financial management to almost 200 implementing entities, further compounds this difficulty.

7 PROGRESS IN MONITORING AND EVALUATION

Monitoring by MoWI, DPs and PMO-RALG

In September 2009 and March 2010 MoWI, PMO-RALG and donor partners conducted the fourth and fifth joint supervision mission to LGAs. The main issues raised during the field visits were: monitoring and evaluation system is still inadequate as a result there is still lack of a comprehensive and accurate sector monitoring performance data, problems in the operation and maintenance of the schemes because tariffs are too low for sustainability, degradation of the water source catchment areas, limited capacity at all levels in the sector as there are major shortfalls in the number of engineers and technicians in the water departments of all visited LGAs, concern on the quality, timeliness and accuracy of program reporting, selection criteria for 10 villages projects were applied in such a way that projects did not only serve the most needy villages and sanitation has not received adequate prioritization at all levels.

Technical Oversight and Monitoring by RSs

Out of 21 RSs, 19 RSs reported to have visited LGAs and out of these 13 incorporated comments in their progress reports and 6 have reported to have no comments. The comments include: Execution of the contract agreement should be honored accordingly i.e. working schedule by consultants. In sanitation and hygiene promotion training, the area of household water treatment should be highlighted during awareness creation to the community. There are delays of report submission from the consultant. There is incompetence of consultants due to lack of experienced technical personnel in the consultant office in respective LGA. Also the consultant should have to make sure all key personnel as stipulated in the contract agreement spend their man month in the field effectively. The baseline sanitation data of the earmarked village in the program should be provided (the consultant should come up with Sanitation baseline data for earmarked villages with project). Water quality should be tested and the report to be included in the documents that consultant has to submit to the client. The consultant should start building awareness on formulation of water user entity instead of VWCs. Training on preparation of environmental screening forms (Safeguard) should be conducted. The Consultant is advised to use solar energy in pumping schemes where is applicable and appropriate. Awareness creation on sense of water project ownership should continue so that vandalism of water infrastructure can be stopped. The District advised to reinforce the supervision of rural water supply and sanitation project consultant. Community should be facilitated on awareness on community contribution as well as O&M. Also LGAs are advised to take action on registration of water user groups to make operation and maintenance of water projects sustainable. It is advised that LGA water department offices should not be utilized with other council departments. Details can be seen in Annex B3.

Monitoring Reports of Urban Water Supplies and Sewerage Utilities: There are 19 Urban Water supply and sewerage authorities (UWSAs) in operation. These Authorities have been managed by the Board of Directors which are fully responsible for carrying out all functions and supervise business and affairs of the Authorities including tariff setting, revenue collection and budgeting. The Authorities are graded under three categories of A, B and C as per water regulation of 1997, and are monitored, regulated and supported by the Urban Water Supply and Sewerage Division and EWURA. The annual report gives a brief summary of the performance attained by the UWSAs measured by using the indicators stipulated in the Memorandum of Understanding MoU. The basis of analysis and evaluation in this report is on the respective monthly, quarterly and annual reports submitted by the authorities and match up with the data reported in the Maji Information System database (MajIs). The total outstanding TANESCO bills for the 19 authorities excluding DAWASCO by the end of this year was Tshs 841 million while the total debt to suppliers amounted to Tshs 1.989billion compared to Tshs 1.53 billion of the previous year. The total amount of arrears during the year 2009/2010 was Tshs 8.672 billion compared to Tshs. 7.74 billion reported in the previous year and amongst these, the Government Institutions arrears are Tshs. 2.822 billion and private customer’s arrears are Tshs. 5.850 billion.

8 CHALLENGES The reported challenges from the WSDP components, that have in one way or another contributed to

bottlenecks in the implementation of some of the Programme planned activities during the reporting

financial year include aavailability of reliable data from various sources to enhance timely

preparation of quarterly reports, approval and sharing of reports; delayed and inadequate

disbursements that cause delay in implementation of the sub sector work plans, Overdue

payments of signed Contracts which needs to be paid as most works have stalled . Challenges

reported by each component are shown below:

Component I : Water Resource Management

(i) Limited enforcement mechanism contingent on the new water law as the regulations are not yet in place;

(ii) Delayed and inadequate disbursement and incompatible to Basin work and plans and budgets;

(iii) Limited human resources with requisite knowledge in IWRM, negotiation skills, conflict resolution, social assessment, water resources economics and international water law;

(iv) Inadequate and old working facilities, monitoring equipments and tools; (v) Inadequate transport to facilitate the implementation of activities such as data

collection and monitoring; and (vi) Low rate of collection of economic water user fees.

Component 2: Rural Water Supply and Sanitation

(i) The new reporting format provided, which lead to missing some important and relevant information such as monitoring, sanitation and financial issues was adopted; Some RSs and LGAs did not manage to submit their reports in time;

(ii) Sanitation issues are still not given priority in some LGAs and RSs;

(iii) Inadequate number of competent, qualified and skilled staff at all levels including the Ministries, RSs, LGAs and private sector. The situation hinders routine operations of water user entities, supervision and monitoring and reporting progress on water schemes in time; and

(iv) Low response of the community in participation in the implementation of water sub-projects in terms of cash and in kind.

Component 3: Urban Water Supply and Sanitation (i) Shortage of funds that led to omitting the implementation of projects including towns

that has finished studies, for instance, Tabora (Urambo and Sikonge), Babati (Orkesumet, Karatu and Katesh);

(ii) Delay by UWSAs in acquiring title deeds for construction of offices for utilities; (iii) Delay of submission of implementation reports by UWSAs, small towns and national

projects that led to difficulties on preparation of progress report on time;

54

(iv) Delay and inadequate release of funds contributes to delay in payment to contractors and service providers which result to payment of extra (interest) funds as a result of mishandlings of contract conditions. The delay also caused some of the projects like the study for Kidunda dam and construction of Kibaigwa water supply project ceases to start as the consultant and contractors are not yet paid the advance payment;

(v) Accumulation of unpaid bills for the utilities that the programme is helping in supporting. This led to power cut by TANESCO to some utilities like Mugango/Kiabakari National Project which resulted in shortage of water supply to the service area. This was caused by delay in release of funds from WSDP financiers;

(vi) Non-availability of competent and qualified staff in utilities especially in small towns, district UWSAs and National project schemes contributes to delay in projects implementation, decision making and also in reporting.

9 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

9.1 CONCLUSIONS

(i) During the FY 2009/2010 achievements for component one are as explained in the

previous chapters of this report. Level of implementation differs. Some of the plans

were successfully implemented and others partially. IAs applied a number of measures

to overcome the problems funds , such measures included optimal utilization of funds

and soliciting financial resources from other sources;

(ii) Partial implementation has to a large extent been contributed by the untimely

disbursement of financial resources and lack of transport facilities since most of the

plans need field visits and physical follow up. Irregular funds flow to the implementing

agencies has posed problem of implementation as some of the planned activities need

to be done at a specific period/time of the year. However, self efforts were made by the

DWR and BWOs to prioritize the use of financial resources in areas which can have

direct impact to the improvement of the water resources management;

(iii) Awareness campaigns on various issues such as water user fees were conducted to

stakeholders in some Basins to create awareness on value of water. Besides, the

collection and analysis of 3,655 water samples (i.e. 104%) from basins, rural, urban and

private sectors was achieved due to sensitization and awareness creation on the

importance of protecting water sources through different media;

(iv) Various stakeholders (municipalities, industries and authorities) are becoming aware on

pollution control; this is proved by regular effluent monitoring. 302 wastewater samples

analyzed, 280 (i.e. 92.7 %) were found to be within the required standard;

(v) Inadequate experienced staff and technical knowhow for the Basin staff especially for

the new Basins, retard the smooth implementation of the planned activities; In efforts

to minimize the negative effects, from time to time, technical personnel from

MoWI/Department level has supported the Basins in the implementation of various

activities including training of staff on various areas of expertise;

(vi) Implementation of the sub-projects is still slow due to various reasons including long

procurement procedures taken by some LGAs in procuring consultants for ten villages,

and low capacity of local contractors in the water sector;

56

(vii) In RWSS, there is no improvement in submission of progress reports. However, reports

from five RSs of Ruvuma, Dodoma, Mbeya, Arusha and Mara did not follow the new

format provided;

(viii) DCWSS has prepared the concept paper to be sent to financing partners example BADEA

and Saud Fund to request funds for implementation of the projects for the towns that

have finished their studies and designs; and

(ix) Roaster of technical staff from the DCWSS has been prepared so that the towns which

are implementing immediate works will be visited regularly.

9.2 RECOMMENDATIONS

As a matter of clarity, recommendations have been presented specifically for each component.

Therefore, in order to achieve the Components objectives, targets and plans it is recommended

that:-

1. Component 1: Water Resources Management

(i) Disbursement of WSDP funds should be on time for effective implementation of the plans;

(ii) Training and technical support is needed to strengthen BWO Skills gaps need to be filled through recruitments to facilitate or fast track the implementations of WSDP activities;

(iii) Basins Tender Boards needs to be strengthened to enable Basin Water Offices carry out their own procurement;

(iv) Awareness campaigns for the Water Resources Management Act are needed for the better implementation and effective enforcement;

(v) Offices construction and associated equipments such as furniture, computers etc. should be given priority, due to insufficient offices to accommodate new employees;

(vi) New water supply scheme should always be tested before use and old sources should be periodically checked for water quality changes; and

(vii) It is advised to consult Water Laboratory Services Division for determination of whether your water is safe for human consumption (periodic bacteriological tests) and also for mineral test content in order to classify usage requirements and other possible problems in order to select the methods and materials necessary for their correction.

2. Component 2: Rural Water Supply and Sanitation

(i) RSs are to provide technical support to LGAs and incorporate comments in the quarterly progress reports;

(ii) Expenditures should be reported by components; (iii) Implementation of earmarked projects should be reported; and (iv) RSs should make timely submission of progress reports to PMO-RALG and MoWI, and

review all the reports from LGAs.

57

3. Component 3: Urban Water Supply and Sanitation

(i) In order to avoid payment of interest and to facilitate timely completion of the project,

disbursement of WSDP funds should be released on time.

4. Component 4: Institutional Strengthening and Capacity Building

The success of any programme depends on how the implementers are involved in every stage

of implementation process. This is important to assist every stakeholder to perform his/her

duties as required. Therefore there is a need to improve the understanding of the programme

implementation among sector staff, especially for those who are directly involved in the day to

day activities of WSDP particularly the preparation of reports.
