Over 25 million Egyptians have access to clean water and sanitation thanks to USAID-funded water systems and wastewater treatment plants.
USAID recently funded construction of 45,000 new or improved water connections in homes and over 850 km of pipelines that provide water to surrounding villages. Combined, these improvements serve more than 1.8 million Egyptians – many of whom received potable water and sanitation for the first time.
From 2012-2014, USAID created employment opportunities for thousands of day laborers in constructing water facilities, providing 460,000 days of labor.
Current Activities
North Sinai Initiative: This project increases access to potable water and improves sanitation for residents in the restive North Sinai area, where access to clean water and sanitation services is scarce. Water access and infrastructure is improved through the drilling of deep wells; construction of desalination plants, potable water transmission and distribution lines, and water reservoirs; as well as procurement of water distribution trucks. Implementing Partner: HCWW; Life of Project: October 1, 2014-September 30, 2017; Total USAID Funding: $50 million; Bilateral Agreement: North Sinai Initiative.
Egypt Utilities Management: Similar to the North Sinai Initiative, this program improves access to water and sanitation in underserved communities of rural Upper Egypt, including Beni Suef, Assiut, Sohag, Luxor, and Aswan, by providing access to safe water, constructing wastewater facilities for basic sanitation, and supporting water and sanitation policy and governance. Implementing Partner: HCWW; Life of Project: October 1, 2014-June 30, 2018; Total USAID Funding: $30 million; Bilateral Agreement: Egypt Utilities Management.
Thanks for the ping; post. Very interesting.
Feds are guilty until proven innocent. When do we get to start the Nuremberg trial against the Feds?
We need to treat Feds the way they treat us peasants. Star chambers, no due process, and jury intimidation. After going through the formalities, burn ‘em at the stake.
