1 Domestic WastewaterManagement in Mega Manila: Partnership in Action Leonor C. Cleofas Deputy Administrator Metropolitan Waterworks and Sewerage System Securing the Future Today The MWSS Privatization On August 01, 1997, the operation of Metro Manila s waterworks and sewerage system was privatized under a Concession Agreement for 25 years. The entire service area was divided into east and west service areas with specific targets for water supply, sewerage & sanitation. Assets still belong to MWSS. Objectives Transfer financial burden to the private sector Improve service standards Increase operational efficiency Minimize tariff impact 2 1

2 MWSS Service Area As of December 2010 West Zone Maynilad East Zone Manila Water Land Area (sq. km.) 540 1,400 Service Area 17 cities/ Municipalities 23 cities/ Municipalities The world s largest water concession arrangement covering 1,940 sq. km and serving 15.8 million people (2011) Securing the Future Today Total Population Population Served Raw Water Allocation % Water Supply Coverage % Sewerage Coverage 8.40 M 6.80 M 7.40 M 5.90 M 2,400 mld 1,600 mld 88% 87% 8% 23% Outline Conditions Prior to PPP Evolution of Service Coverage Strategies Addressing Challenges Progress 4 2

5 Outline Conditions Prior to PPP Evolution of Service Coverage Strategies Addressing Challenges Progress 9 The Approach 1997 Concession Agreement Vision: Centralized STPs and Dedicated Sewer Systems Huge Investment = Higher Tariff Significant Construction Impact Customer Resistance (Water as a Priority) Difficulty in Securing Land Decentralized dupgrade of Eiti Existing CSTs Septage Management Combined Sewer Drainage Systems 10 5

6 Key Strategies Upgrade of Communal Septic Tanks (CSTs) Septage Management Combined Sewer Drainage System Convert existing CSTs to decentralized STPs Utilize pre existing dedicated (separate) sewer networks Septic Tank kdesludging For areas served by every 3 5 years individual septic tanks and Septic tank sludge sent to with no existing sewer treatment facilities network 11 Key Strategies Upgrade of Communal Septic Tanks (CSTs) Septage Management Combined Sewer Drainage System Convert existing CSTs to decentralized STPs Utilize pre existing dedicated (separate) sewer networks Septic Tank kdesludging For areas served by every 3 5 years individual septic tanks and Septic tank sludge sent to with no existing sewer treatment facilities network 12 6

11 Main Challenges Land Availability Stakeholder Endorsement Cooperation with Government Agencies Social Acceptability Operational Challenges 21 Land Availability Scarcity of large available ailable spaces High cost of land Feasible locations for STPs mostly occupied by informal settlers or privately owned 22 11

12 Challenges Solid Waste & Drainage Maintenance Drainage systems are clogged with solid wastes Indiscriminate dumping of solid wastes in canals, creeks, river systems Wastewater utility should not be the solid waste manager Technology Options that will give a smaller footprints 23 Challenges MWSS/Concessionaires need to comply with the Clean Water Act and to comply with the decision of the Supreme Court in the clean up and rehabilitation of Manila Bay Concessionaires shall implement the MWSS Master Plan to broaden and fast track the sewerage and sanitation services Implementation of a combined system for areas where separate system is not doable Due to land constraints, different technology options are being considered that will result in a smaller footprints Coordinated advocacies and policies towards behavioral changes on dumping of solid wastes 24 12
