Ex-Ante EvaluationLoan Agreement • January 28th, 2019
Contract Type FiledJanuary 28th, 2019In Iraq, water supply facilities have not been properly rehabilitated or expanded due to the two wars and economic sanctions. These facilities have aged and deteriorated without proper maintenance. In particular, in the Kurdistan Region, lack of investment in the water supply sector has led to a significant decline in water intake and treatment capacity and the deterioration of water transmission and distribution facilities. As a result, the region is suffering from lack of water supply, left with no choice but to restrict water supply to one hour per day in Sulaymaniya and Duhok Governorates and four to five hours per day in Erbil Governorate.
