\n\t\t\t\tNorth Gaza Emergency Sewage Treatment Project (p074595)<\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tStatus of Implementation<\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tAs of October 4, 2007<\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\n\t\t\t\tThe project comprises 2 parts, Part A (Effluent Transfer) and Part B (Wastewater Treatment Plant). The completion of Part A<\/strong> will have the biggest impact in mitigating the risk of system failure which could be a hazard to human life of the surrounding communities. Part B<\/strong> is important for environmental reasons but its completion will not materially reduce the risks in the short term.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tPart A: Effluent Transfer (Under Construction)<\/u><\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tThis part is composed of three contracts. Namely they are: 1) the terminal pumping station, 2) the transmission line and 3) the infiltration basins. The completion of the three corresponding contracts is necessary to have the desired risk of reducing impacts. Coordination with IDF is ongoing but the lack of clearances from IDF for the entry of materials into Gaza and site accessibility remains a critical obstacle that hinders the completion of the three contracts.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
\n\t\t\t\tThe total value of this part is about US$ 15.0 million and is financed by an IDA trust fund (US$5.9million) and an EIB loan through the MOF (US$ 5.4 million) and MOF contribution (US$2.5 million). IDA allocations have been fully disbursed, and MOF has transferred to the NGEST account US$1.9million. MOF needs to transfer the remaining fund to the NGEST accounts promptly.<\/strong>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\t§<\/span>        <\/span> <\/span>Sewage Transmission line<\/strong><\/i><\/span>: Substantially completed. The remaining works are related to installation of valves, which are currently available in Israel. The transfer of these valves to <\/span>Gaza needs to be cleared by IDF. <\/span>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n

\n\t\t\t\tThe correct operation of the Beit Lahia lake facilities will be an important part of the successful risk mitigation strategy.  Currently, pumping from the lake is being done on an ad hoc basis and without a strategic concept. The Bank had asked the CMWU to prepare and implement a coherent Operation Plan early April 2007. A draft has been submitted on June 28, 2007 and is expected to be finalized for review on Thursday October 18, 2007.  <\/strong> The Bank team is<\/strong> monitoring the preparation and will review the submitted plan for immediate implementation.\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n
