1. Background for the workshop
The Municipality of Al-Bireh is going to extend the existing sewage collection system - presently
serving approximately 70% of the catchment areas of Central, North and South - to "Lower South"
and "Upper North", two city districts with high rates of population growth. The final goal is to get
approximately 80% of Al-Bireh's total population (44,000 inhabitants at present) connected to the
sewerage system. Furthermore, the construction of a modern waste water treatment plant (WWTP)
will start early next year and shall go into operation by the end of 1998. At that time, 80% of Al-
Bireh's sewage shall be treated in order to reduce groundwater pollution and health risks.
The expansion of the main sewage network "Lower South" and the construction of the WWTP will
be financed by the German Government, represented by KfW, Frankfurt. The Municipality of Al-
Bireh will contribute NIS 2 million within the next two years to the lateral pipelaying in "Lower
South". A total investment of about NIS 50 million is planned for this ambitous infrastructure
improvement plan. ©
To prepare the extended sewerage system - including the WWTP - the GTZ, Germany's Agency for
Technical Assistance has commissioned Dr. Peter Braun to develop proposals for a new sewerage
tariff. The main principles for setting this tariff are to recover all capital and running»costs, on the
one hand, and to introduce an economically fair and socially affordable tariff, on the other hand.’ The
main aspects of the sewerage tariff - which should be based on water consumption instead of ’
propesty and built-up areas - will be “discussed in the forthcoming workshop. .
2. Topics for the Workshop Discussion ‘ ; :
Because the inauguration of the extended sewage collection network as well’as the WWTP is still
two years away, the Municipality of Al-Bireh and other sonsemned partners have enough time to find
__ answers to the following questions: .
