Narrative Description of Project: |
|
|
|
|
The
purpose of this study is to establish baseline information regarding
solid and liquid wastes management in four Irrigation General
Directorates (West Sharkia, New Zifta, Quena and Aswan), where the
concept of Integrated Water Management District will be generalized.
The study is directed towards surveying population and facilities in
various population centers within the 28 irrigation districts.
The
study has compiled and analyzed data regarding the solid and liquid
wastes management including volume distribution, disposal methods,
side effects of system pollutions, with emphasis on the
watercourses. The baseline has provided necessary data to build
necessary process and outcome indicators for follow up wastes
control with the progress of IWMDs.
| i) |
Identify Population Center by
Name and Location, plotted on map. |
| ii) |
Population (male, age
disaggregated; female, age disaggregated). |
| iii) |
Political organization –
local council. |
| iv) |
Health facilities in center
(clinic, hospital, doctors, ..), including the diseases
the attributed to pollution (water borne, toxicity). |
| v) |
Education facilities-primary,
preparatory, post-preparatory. |
| vi) |
Volume of solid waste
(household, industry, agriculture; estimate volume of each
type), including solid waste collection and disposal methods. |
| vii) |
Volume of liquid waste
(household, industry, agriculture; estimate volume of each
type), including liquid waste collection and disposal methods. |
| viii) |
Assess interest in tacking
wastes problem (civil and private); their thoughts/ideas on
addressing the problems. |
| ix) |
NGOs operating in center
(name, contact person, interest area). |
