B. PROJECT CONTEXT Summarize the rationale for Bank assistance. State: -what development challenge the project addresses, -the Borrower's overall strategy for addressing it, -Bank activities in this country (ies) and sector over the past year and how they performed, and -ongoing Bank and other externally financed activities that complement, overlap with or relate to this project. Please cite relevant sources. Comment on the strength and coherence of the rationale. [250 words maximum. Any additional narrative about the project's origins and history, if needed, must be placed in Annex 6: Project Narrative]

Nakuru, Kenya's fourth largest city is a major industrial and tourist centre. However, water supply problems have impacted negatively on the livelihoods of the residents resulting in scaling down and relocation of some industries. The GoK thus requested the Bank Group to fund a feasibility study for a medium term project for water supply and sanitation and a pre-feasibility study for long term interventions. The mid-term project was approved in July 2004 and seeks to improve water supply and sanitation services in urban, peri urban and rural communities under the Rift Valley Water Services Board's jurisdiction. In line with the Water Act 2002 and the National Water Services Strategy, the project objectives were to be achieved through creation of effectively functioning water and sewerage service institutions, rehabilitation and augmentation of water supply and sanitation systems, and implementation of a rural water supply and sanitation programme. The project was accorded a high priority in the Bank’s 2002-2004 CSP for Kenya, which advocates support to GOK’s efforts to achieve the water and sanitation MDGs, through rehabilitation and necessary expansion of infrastructure.

At project appraisal time, the Bank had financed water supply projects for the towns of Nairobi,Ndia,Thika,and Nanyuki including sewerage projects for Nyeri, Muranga, Kisii and Bungoma towns. The performance of these projects was satisfactory. Recently approved projects in the sector include (i) Water Services Boards Support Project (ii) Small Towns and Rural Water Supply and Sanitation Project projects, and (iii) The Nairobi Rivers Rehabilitation and Restoration Programme - Sewerage Improvement Project.

C. PROJECT OBJECTIVES AND LOGICAL FRAMEWORK

1. State the Project Development Objective(s) (as set out in the appraisal report)

The Objective of the project is to improve water supply and sanitation services in urban, peri-urban and rural communities within the service jurisdiction of the Rift-Valley Water Services Board

2. Describe the major project components and indicate how each will contribute to achieving the Project Development Objective(s).

Component Details Contribution to Project Objectives: A. Institutional support to Rift Valley Water Services Board (RVWSB) and Nakuru Water and Sanitation Services Company (NAWASSCO) which was aimed at enhancing their capacity to carry out their respective mandates as commercial oriented service institutions, per the Water Act (2002). B. Water Supply and Sanitation Improvements for Nakuru: This was to enable 290,000 people in Nakuru town access improved water and sanitation services through; Development of Olobanita wellfield with capacity of 15,000m3/day; Rehabilitation of existing sources to restore capacity from 30,000 to 40000m3/day, rehabilitation of water distribution, sewerage and storm water drainage systems; reduction of unaccounted for water and water wastage; provision of 15000 consumer meters, a meter test bench and meter repair kits, tools and equipment for operation and maintenance; provision of 106 public water kiosks, communal and public latrines for low income peril-urban areas; conduct public awareness campaigns on water, health, gender and other cross-cutting issues C .Water and Sanitation Improvements in Small towns in Rift Valley; This was to enable 120,000 people in the 5 towns of Njoro, Molo, Elburgon, Naivasha and Gilgil access improved water and sanitation services through implementation of feasible management options and short- term investment needs. D. Develop and implement a rural water supply and sanitation programme based on the demand responsive approach to benefit a total of 100,000 people.

PROJECT OBJECTIVES DIMENSIONS

ASSESSMENT WORKING

SCORE

RELEVANT

a) Relevant to the country's development priorities

The project is in line with the water sector policy of the country and the National Water Services Strategy(2003 - 2006) which seeks to promote wider access to water and sanitation services (See appraisal report and PRSP which links diminishing water resources, and access to water as contributing to growing poverty levels). The project is also in line with the national priorities of the MDGs and the Vision 2030 Social and economic pillars.

4

ACHIEVABLE

b) Objectives could in principle be achieved with the project inputs and in the expected timeframe

The objectives are largely achievable within the project inputs and time frame; however there were delays in the start up of the project activities due to delays in signing of lease agreement between RVWSB and NAWASSCO which took long to negotiate. Acquisition of land for the borehole sites also took time and the implementation of the rural water supply and sanitation program posed a challenge to the EA due to capacity constraints of the communities and supervision challenges as the projects were widely spared.

3

CONSISTENT

c) Consistent with the Bank's country or regional strategy

Consistent with the Bank’s 2002-2004 Country Strategy Paper focusing on poverty alleviation and MDG's.

4

d) Consistent with the Bank's corporate priorities

Support for infrastructure rehabilitation pursuant to achieving MDGs and expand medium term demand growth is in line with the Bank's Water supply and sanitation priorities. The project is also in line with the Bank Group’s Integrated Water Resources Management Policy (2000), which supports priority rehabilitation of existing infrastructure and encourages ultimate cost recovery while taking into account social equity.

2. Additional outcomes. Comment on the project's additional outcomes not captured in the log. frame, including cross-cutting issues (e.g., gender).

Improved access to water supply and sanitation facilities has contributed to a better quality of life for women and the girl child. Women and the girl child, who earlier had to walk long distances to fetch water for household use now have more time to devote to more meaningful endeavors such as earning income, schooling, household and personal hygiene. In addition, more women are involved in the management of the rural water supply and sanitation projects increasing the likelihood of better accountability and hence sustainability. The CPC process advocates for a minimum of 30% representation of women in the committees. A reduction of water borne diseases was reported at the Mukutani water project visited during the PCR mission. Projects employed rural workforce contributing to employment creation. RVWSB is now ISO 9001-2008 certified as a result of continually improving the quality of its management and services provision.

3. Risks to sustained achievement of outcomes. State the factors that affect, or could affect, the long-run or sustained achievement of project outcomes. Indicate if any new activity or institutional change is recommended to help sustain outcomes. The analysis should draw upon the sensitivity analysis in Annex 3, where appropriate.

Public health campaigns and awareness creation on health and sanitation in Nakuru town started late and was hence not fully incorporated into the project, coupled with the fact that the project did not directly finance the connections to the sewerage system, many households may decide to continue using their septic tank-soak away systems and pit latrines and hence the health gains in terms of reduced incidence of diseases may not be fully realized. Another risk to sustained achievement of outcomes is the rapidly growing population of Nakuru town. During the planning stage, the target population was set as 290,000 for Nakuru town. By 2009, (and due to the political instabilities of 2007/8), the population had already hit 473,288 and it set to grow even faster, hence the percentage of population served may decline unless new sources are developed immediately. Third, solid waste management continues to be a major challenge causing significant environmental pollution in the town and resulting in continued incidence of water borne diseases including malaria and typhoid fever. This must be addressed urgently. Fourthly, declining income base of the residents of the other towns in the projects, particularly Njoro, Elburgon, Molo means that a growing number may not be able to afford clean water from the installed and metered kiosks and may continue to use the highly contaminated sources (eg.River Njoro remains the main source of water for the poor in Njoro town). For the rural water supply and sanitation projects, the sustainability arrangements are not fully implemented for most projects and there is the risk of beneficiaries’ not meeting operation and maintenance costs if no follow up of these projects is made by RVWSB. Unaccounted for water remains very high at 46% and this needs to be addressed if the project is to make enough revenue and extend services to the low income areas. The project did not make resources available for the extension and expansion of the distribution network, which further contributed to the failure to reduce the UFW to the target levels. This is an area that new investment must be focused at. The new constitution in Kenya has provided a new legal framework whereby provision of water and sanitation services is through county governments with no mechanism of ring fencing revenues generated from water services. This may deprive the sector the much needed resources for offering improved services and expanding coverage.

E. PROJECT DESIGN AND READINESS FOR IMPLEMENTATION

1. State the extent to which the Bank and the Borrower ensured the project was commensurate with the Borrower’s capacity to implement by designing the project appropriately and by putting in place the necessary implementation arrangements. Consider all major design aspects, such as extent to which project design took into account lessons learned from previous PCRs in the sector or the country (please cite key PCRs); whether the project was informed by robust analytical work (please cite key documents); how well Bank and Borrower assessed the capacity of the implementing agencies and/or Project Implementation Unit; scope of consultations and partnerships; economic rationale of project; and provisions made for technical assistance.

[200 words maximum. Any additional narrative about implementation should be included at Annex 6: Project Narrative]

Extensive consultations on the project were held between the Bank and the Government between 1993 and 2004. The project was preceded by a feasibility study completed in 2000 and the appraisal conducted in 2004 only when key institutional reforms in the water sector were being implemented in the country and an environmental impact study undertaken. During the Appraisal Mission consultations were held with Development Partners active in the sector (such as World Bank, GTZ,AFD,SIDA,JICA and DANIDA). The need to have a service provision agreement between NAWASSCO and RVWSB and an on-lending agreement between MoF and RVWSB were part of the loan conditions including the appointment of key staff to RVWSB. Having in place a programme for regular tariff adjustment were also part of the loan conditions. As a key lesson from previous interventions, the project also focused on institutional capacity development and interventions in rural areas, in addition to the physical urban infrastructure development. The water sector reforms resulted in a new community-based RWSS approach to service provision and the project grant component provided an opportunity to test the new mechanism (CPC) for improved and sustainable service provision by using a need-based bottom up approach. The CPC approach involves extensive consultations and involvement of beneficiary communities. The project (by coinciding with the implementation of the new water act 2002) faced challenges of capacity constraints in the new institutions and this justified the TA support.

2. For each dimension of project design and readiness for implementation, provide a brief assessment (up to two sentences). Insert a working score, using the scoring scale provided in Appendix 1.

PROJECT DESIGN AND READINESS FOR IMPLEMENTATION DIMENSIONS

ASSESSMENT WORKING SCORE

REALISM

a) Project complexity is matched with country capacity and political commitment.

The GOK commitment in implementing the water sector reforms was evident with donors supporting various projects in the sector. GoK commitment and contributions envisaged was as expected.

4

RISK ASSESSMENT AND MITIGATION

b) Project design includes adequate risk analysis.

The project identified the following risks (i) effectiveness of new institutions (ii) water tariffs (iii) connectivity to sewer network. However, the risk of delayed implementation and availability of quality contractors for the rural water and sanitation component was underestimated. The assumption of achieving 25% reduction in unaccounted for water was over ambitious as the distribution network and metering problems were not fully addressed in the project.

USE OF COUNTRY SYSTEMS

c) Project procurement, financial management, monitoring and/or other systems are based on those already in use by government and/or other partners.

Procurement of all goods, works and services were in accordance with Banks rules and procedures. Despite initial challenges, the Executing Agency was able to implement the project in line with these procedures.

For the following dimensions, provide separate working scores for Bank performance and Borrower performance:

WORKING SCORE

Bank Borrower

CLARITY d) Responsibilities for project implementation were clearly defined.

The Executing agency was clearly identified as RVWSB. Capacity building of the EA was a key component of the project.

4 4

PROCUREMENT READINESS

e) Necessary implementation documents (e.g. specifications, design, procurement documents) were ready at appraisal.

The supervising consultants provided support in preparing the detailed specification and design documents. Bank procurement guidelines were provided and in due time the implementing agency was conversant with the bank procedures.

3 3

MONITORING READINESS

f) Monitoring indicators and monitoring plan were agreed upon before project launch.

The Appraisal Report had developed the logical frame work with monitoring indicators. Supervision schedules were specified but the MTR was not undertaken as planned.

3 3

BASELINE DATA

h) Baseline data were available or are were collected during project design.

Baseline data collected during appraisal was adequate for assessment of project achievements. The performance of NAWASSCO was assessed using monitoring guidelines in the service provision agreement with RVWSB and as approved by the regulator during the course of project implementation. Information from the regulator (from the Impact reports) was used in assessing the performance of both RVWSB and NAWASSCO.

F. IMPLEMENTATION 1. State the major characteristics of project implementation with reference to: adherence to schedules, quality of construction or other work, performance of consultants, effectiveness of Bank supervision, and effectiveness of Borrower oversight. Assess how well the Bank and the Borrower ensured compliance with safeguards. [200 words maximum. [Any additional narrative about implementation should be included at Annex 6: Project Narrative.]

Start-up activities were delayed due to delayed meeting of loan conditions and capacity limitations in the Executing Agency who did not fully understand Bank rules and procedures. Consequently, the project closing date was extended twice for a cumulative 18 months. However, through TA support and engagement of consultants, implementation of the urban water supply and sanitation component improved significantly with deadlines and schedules for most contracts being met. Supervision and consultancy services were to the required standards and quality of construction was good. The only implementation contract that was delayed was drilling whereby difficult geological conditions were encountered.

15

Delays in obtaining tax exemptions and processing disbursements negatively affected the project. Delays in disbursements resulted in penalties and interest payments. The rural water supply and sanitation component was delayed as implementation modalities for the CPC took time to be developed. Despite being designed to involve and empower communities, utilisation of funds in the special account posed challenges to the EA. The performance of civil works contractors for the rural component varied by project with low quality of construction in some projects due to lapses in supervision. The limited time allocated for supervision in the CPC model and the quality of supervision need urgent review if the CPC model is to be effective. In most of the rural water supply and sanitation projects the implementation of the planned operation and maintenance arrangements had not commenced at project closure and these need follow up by the RVWSB. The public health hygiene and awareness campaign was started late in Nakuru town and at the time of project closure was not yet concluded. Supervision by the Bank focused on technical aspects and procurement issues. Aide-memoires and follow-up letters sent to the Government pointed to the delayed implementation of the project. The Country Field Office played an increasing role in supervising the project including addressing procurement and financial management issues. Supervision missions included officers from the line Ministries of Finance, and Water and irrigation. Bank showed flexibility by approving successive extensions of the closing date that were necessary to complete the rural water supply and sanitation works. However, resources from exchange rate gains which could have been used to address the problems of UFW were not fully utilised in the project. It is encouraging to note that NAWASSCO is in the process of addressing the problem of the high UFW using internally generated resources. Key environmental monitoring indicators such as quality of drinking water, quality of raw and treated sewage are being monitored by NAWASSCO. However, although technical assistance was provided for installation of an aquifer management system, this was not realized due to various reasons, the main one being that the response to expression of interest was low and lack of adequate experience in the operations of such a system. The water production and water levels of the boreholes are being monitored on a dialy basis to ensure that the extraction does not exceed the safe yield.

2. Comment on the role of other partners (e.g. donors, NGOs, contractors, etc.). Assess the effectiveness of co-financing arrangements and of donor coordination, if applicable.

The urban water supply and sanitation component attracted competent private sector consultants and contractors and their performance was satisfactory. However, the capacity of the local private sector contractors was very limited for the rural water supply and sanitation component. The small size of the projects and remoteness did not attract competent civil works contractors. Participation of NGO's in the implementation of the project was limited though the Catholic Diocese of Nakuru participated as consultants in some of the rural water supply and sanitation projects.

3. Harmonization. State whether the Bank made explicit efforts to harmonize instruments, systems and/or approaches with other partners.

The Banks intervention took cognisance of other donor interventions in the country at the time of appraisal with extensive consultations being made with Development Partners in the sector. The interventions were planned to support the water sector reforms at the Rift valley water services Board. The rural water supply and sanitation program adopted the CPC approach as developed by the Water Services Trust Fund in collaboration with Development Partners (SIDA and DANIDA). In line with the donor partnership principles in the sector, there was no PIU and the RVWSB personnel were in charge of implementing the project.

4. For each dimension of project implementation, assess the extent to which the project achieved the following. Provide a brief assessment (up to two sentences) and insert a working score, using the scoring scale provided in Appendix 1.

The PCR was prepared by a Water and Sanitation officer in KEFO and a financial analyst from Head Office. The mission was conducted jointly with the borrower and the implementing agency (RVWSB). Initial meetings were held with the ResRep and CPO in KEFO. During the field visits, meetings and discussions were held with the board of directors of NAIVASSCO and NAWASSCO. The mission also visited a rural water supply and sanitation project in Baringo (Mukutani water users association) and interviewed the beneficiaries, local leaders and project officials, where women constituted 30% and held key posts such as treasurer and secretary. Comments on the PCR were received from procurement, financial management specialists and peer reviewers.

H. LESSONS LEARNED Summarize key lessons for the Bank and the Borrower suggested by the project’s outcomes [250 words maximum. Any additional narrative about lessons learned, if needed, must be placed in Annex 6: Project Narrative]

Delays in disbursements should be minimised as they affect project implementation and are costly to the client. Delayed processing of disbursement requests from contractors resulted in significant amounts of interest penalties being paid by the borrower. This is an area requiring improvement to avoid loss of limited resources towards payment of penalties. The provision of monthly statements from the Bank will help the borrower to track direct payments made by the Bank and hence follow up on outstanding payments; Agreements and Covenants between institutions/agencies involved in project implementation should be designed and concluded before project approval to increase project readiness. Delays in effectiveness of the project were due to loan conditions which required setting up of new institutions under the wider sector reforms, which took long to implement. This would have been avoided if at the time the project was approved, these core institutional reforms would have been undertaken.

18

Mid Term review is a good opportunity to fully restructure a project/programme. The project did not conduct a Mid Term Review and hence the opportunity to make adjustments to the project and make full use of all available resources in good time was missed. The cancelled resources were as a result of exchange rate gains and these could have been used to provide more meters and improve the distribution network. The assumption of achieving 25% reduction in unaccounted for water was too ambitious as the distribution network and metering problems were not fully addressed in the project. The operator was unable to fully investigate the areas of losses and also curtail losses associated with the old distribution network. Project design should carefully evaluate and accommodate the complexities of community involvement and participation in the implementation of rural water supply and sanitation programs. The implementation of the rural component of the project adopted the CPC approach, which takes long to implement. There is therefore need for a review of the CPC model and strengthen it for future rural interventions. Financial resources should not be spread too thinly. The project targeted one Water Services Board (WSB) enabling better focus by the Bank and avoided spreading the limited resources too thinly. This combined with institutional capacity building increased the likelihood of the project achieving the desired impacts. However, the capacity building component should have been extended (not only to NAWSSCO) to the Water Service Providers in the other towns of Naivasha, Gilgil, Njoro, Elburgon and Molo. All project components are important and should be started on time. There were delays in implementing the public health campaigns and this should have formed part of the initial project activities to create awareness among the Nakuru town beneficiaries on the significance of safe drinking water, appropriate use and maintenance of sewerage system, on-premise latrines, roles of stakeholders and need for women's representation in decision making. It is recommended that this activity continues with funding from the Government and involvement of all stakeholders especially the local authorities.

EIRR ANALYSIS ANNEX 3 RIFT VALLEY WATER SUPPLY & SANITATION PROJECT ASSUMPTIONS USED IN THE ECONOMIC EVALUATION

Currency: The analysis has been done in United States of America Dollars (USD).

Project's horizon: The EIRR evaluation has been done for a 15 year horizon considering that the interventions were meant to address the immediate short term needs of the target towns. Additional interventions, mainly in the reticulation systems will need to be undertaken to spread the coverage to other un-serviced areas. Population: The estimated beneficiaries are 761,000 residents of Nakuru, Naivasha, Molo, Njoro, Elburgon, Gilgil, including 144,000 for the RWSS interventions. The number of beneficiaries has been assumed constant due to the fact that the interventions were short term in nature and did not expand the distribution network, especially for the urban centres. They merely increased water availability from 6 hours per day to 18 hours per day, in the case of Nakuru. Water production: Water production in the 5 towns is 34,680m3/day made up of Nakuru – 30,000, Molo – 840, Naivasha – 2,560, Njoro – 880 and Elburgon – 400m3/day.

Unaccounted for water: UFW is 46% in Nakuru and has been applied across the board.

Average tariff: The average approved water tariff in Nakuru is US$1/m3. Taking into account the other small towns and the rural component, the average tariff for the project is discounted by 15% to US$ 0.85/m3. Costs Investment Costs: These are based on actual disbursements converted to USD based on the exchange rate at PCR date.

Operation and Maintenance Costs: These are assumed at 6% of the investment costs. Benefits and Savings The assumptions utilise the findings of the WHO Evaluation of Costs and Benefits of Water and Sanitation improvements assessment at the Global Level. These findings indicate the benefits arising from reduced costs of health interventions arising from improved water and sanitation improvements. For the treatment of diarrhoea, health service unit costs are taken from WHO regional unit cost databases. The following broad parameters constitute the variables for the assessment; (i) time savings related to water collection or accessing sanitary facilities; (ii) patient health treatment and travel costs saved; and (iii) value of less adults, infants and students falling sick with diarrhoea. Time savings due to reduced diarrhoea sickness: These are the estimated savings of time due to availability of water and sanitation facilities in convenient places.

Value of (adult) productive gained due to less diarrhoea illness: This value estimates the value gained from availability of the productive members of the society from reduced illnesses arising from improved facilities. Patient treatment and travel costs saved: This estimates the savings arising from reduced medical treatments arising from reduced infections from water borne illnesses. Outcome

Based on the above assumptions, the EIRR is estimated at 21.35%, indicating that there are significant positive economic gains coming out of the interventions. Given below is the summary calculation of the EIRR.

PROJECT NARRATIVE ANNEX 6

General Project Development Objective a) The project is designed to increase water supply and sanitation coverage in some parts of the Rift Valley Water

Services Board (i.e. Nakuru municipality and the town of Naivasha, Gilgil, Molo, Elburgon and Njoro and the rural communities). This will ensure that the RVWSB takes over schemes that have been rehabilitated to an acceptable state with low levels of UfW, and good knowledge of its consumers. The production capacity will be increased to meet current and medium term demand in Nakuru, current demand in the 5 other towns, and provide services to 100,000 rural consumers.

Project Background a) Nakuru is the fourth largest urban centre in Kenya with a population of about 285,000 and growing at an annual rate of

3.5%. It is situated on the northern shores of Lake Nakuru on the floor of the Great Rift Valley in Central Kenya, with rich agricultural hinterland and high tourism potential as a result of Lake Nakuru, an alkaline water body 1800m above sea level, habitat for one third of the world’s lesser flamingo, and the surrounding wildlife park. The area also has many industries.

b) Despite the importance of Nakuru in the Kenyan economy, the water supply suffers from the problems of (i) insufficient capacity of water sources and (ii) weak institutional capacity to operate and maintain, bill and collect revenues from the water supply and sanitation facilities. These problems reached a level where they are impacting on poverty levels, health and livelihood of the people, thereby causing an increase in water borne diseases with families buying water of doubtful quality at high cost from vendors. Some industries closed down or relocated to other areas, while there is increasing competition between the different sectors of demand. In view of these problems, the Government of Kenya, in 1993, requested the Bank Group to finance a feasibility study of a medium term project for water supply and sanitation for the town of Nakuru and a pre-feasibility study for the long-term project.

c) The study, completed in 2000, proposed a two-phased approach to the solution of the water and sanitation problems in Nakuru. The first phase, the Immediate Works Project, involves rehabilitation of the existing water supply and sanitation facilities to restore production from less than 30,000 m3/day to the design capacity of 40,000 m3/day; capacity augmentation by 15,000 m3/day by development of a new well field at Olobanita; and institutional capacity building to improve billing, revenue collection and reduce Unaccounted-for-Water (UfW). The second phase would involve construction of a dam on the Itare River to increase capacity to 100,000 m3/day and extension of the sewer network to other parts of the town.

d) In early 2001, the Government requested the Bank Group to finance the Immediate Works Project, but the appraisal process could not be completed due to failure to resolve key institutional and financial issues. The Government renewed the request for funding the project under ADF IX in October 2002, but this time included other towns and rural areas within the Rift Valley Water Services Board area, in line with the policy and institutional reforms initiated under the Water Act (2002). The Bank appraised the project in December 2003, with a follow up mission in March 2004 to firm up the outstanding institutional issues. This Appraisal Report is the outcome of these missions.

e) Unlike earlier Bank Group financed projects in Kenya, which focussed on physical infrastructure, this project will ensure that new institutions are put in place and strengthened while the infrastructure is being rehabilitated and extended. The project, as designed, will provide technical assistance to RVWSB and NAWASSCO, the WSP for Nakuru, to ensure that RVWSB develops adequate institutional capacity to manage its contracts with the WSPs, and that NAWASSCO will have adequate capacity for operation and maintenance, as well as financial management of the Nakuru schemes.

Project Implementation Institutional support to RVWSB and NAWASSCO

Institutional support to both RVWSB and NAWASSCO is fully implemented and has registered success with RVWSB being fully operational and exercising its mandate as per the Water Act 2002. The RVWSB is now ISO 9001-2008 certified as a result of continually improving the quality of its management and services provision. Support to the project included the performance audit of NAWASSCO which was undertaken by an independent consultancy firm (Norken International Ltd) during the project duration. The report not only acknowledges progress made in institutional strengthening but also makes recommendations for improvement in the areas of (i) non-revenue water (ii) revenue collection (iii) recruitment and training of suitable qualified persons at middle and lower levels including outsourcing opportunities. The performance report of Kenya’s water services sector (Impact issue no 4) by the regulator (WASREB) has ranked NAWASSCO favourably with a metering ratio of 92%, collection efficiency of 69%, coverage of 79%, 18 hours of water supply and non –revenue water of 53%. Monthly revenues collection has increased from KSh 5 Million in 2007 to KSh 40 Million in 2011.

Water Supply and Sanitation Improvements for Nakuru, and other Secondary towns

The project capital investment works, comprising new and major rehabilitation works of the existing water supply and sanitation facilities were satisfactorily implemented including the Rural Water Supply and Sanitation program.

LESSONS LEARNT

1.1 Delayed processing of disbursement requests from contractors has resulted in significant amounts of interest penalties being paid by the borrower. This is an area requiring improvement to avoid loss of limited resources towards payment of penalties. One possible solution would be the provision of monthly statements from the Bank which will enable the borrower to track direct payments made by the Bank;

1.2 Delays in effectiveness of the project were due to loan conditions requiring the establishment and operation of new institutions under the wider sector reforms which took long to implement. This would have been avoided if at the time the project was approved, these core institutional reforms would have been undertaken.

1.3 A holistic approach to reducing unaccounted for water (whereby both technical and commercial losses are addressed) is crucial to

the success of that objective. This project did not provide all zonal meters and improvements of the distribution network. Hence the operator was unable to fully investigate the areas of losses and also curtail losses associated with the old distribution network.

1.4 The implementation of the rural component of the project adopted the CPC approach, which takes long to implement. There is therefore need for a review of the CPC model and strengthen it for future rural interventions.

1.5 The project targeted one Water Services Board (WSB) and Water Service Provider under that WSB, enabling better focus by the

Bank and avoided spreading the limited resources too thinly. This combined with institutional capacity building increased the likelihood of the project achieving the desired impacts.

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Conclusions

Project Outcomes

The overall rating for the achievement of the project outcome is satisfactory with the project development objective being relevant and in line with the sector goal of ensuring equitable provision of adequate water and sanitation services. Achievement of outputs was satisfactory with implementation of key components under (i) the Institutional support to RVWSB and NAWASSCO; (ii) Rehabilitation of the existing urban water and sanitation facilities in Nakuru; (iii) 5 secondary towns under the RVWSB; and (iv) rural water supply and sanitation program.

Borrowers Performance

The Borrower’s performance is rated as satisfactory though delays in completing the setting up of the required institutions contributed to the delayed commencement of project implementation. The GoK remains committed to increasing access to water and sanitation services in the country through increased financing to the sector and sustained implementation of the sector reforms. Counterpart funding was provided though delays were experienced in the obtaining tax exemption. The Executing Agency was adequately staffed and progress reports submitted. Implementation of the planned activities was satisfactory.

Bank Performance

The performance of the Bank is rated as satisfactory with supervision missions having being conducted on a regular basis by both KEFO and Headquarters. Though no Medium Term Review for the project was conducted, key issues were identified during supervision and resolved.

Recommendations

Further to the agreed action points in section 4 of the Aide memoire, the following recommendations are made for the project:

There is need for extension of the distribution networks in all the towns to ensure the increased coverage of water supply and sanitation services;

The ability and capacity of NAIVAWASS to operate and maintain the infrastructure and provide water supply and sanitation services in Naivasha town needs to be urgently reviewed and immediate remedial action instituted.
