XIV Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) to Identify the Setting Priorities of the Sanitation Sector in West Bank By Baraa Yaseen Jararaa Supervisor Prof. Marwan Haddad

Abstract During the last two decades, millions of dollars have been invested in the sanitation sector in the Palestinian lands. Nonetheless, the sanitation sector is considered one of the sectors that have been neglected over the past decades as only 28% to 32% of the populations are provided with sewage systems. Such networks serve some of the main cities, camps and villages while most of the populations get rid of wastewater via cesspits. Many researches and studies have been conducted over the sanitation sector in Palestine, and many plans and strategies have been developed in this field over the past years. However, none of such researches and strategies managed to set the priorities of the areas in need to solve the problem of wastewater disposal. This research aims at identifying and setting the priorities of the areas in need to solve the problem of wastewater disposal by using Multiple

Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) approach in an attempt to start projects in such areas. The research has shown that the current way they are selecting target areas to sanitation projects are either based on the policies of the donor or on a non-scientific method. So they do not take all the right criteria to make the right decision. XV

The research has shown that the criteria which significantly affect the decision-making process in the sanitation sectors are: the demography, water consumption - wastewater production, reusing wastewater, environmental factor, the operation body, the risks of the industrial waste, the socio-economic factor, the geographical factor and political issues. The research discussed the evaluative mechanism of such criteria, and a mathematical relationship was found between the different criteria which facilitate identifying setting the priorities of areas. The number of communities whose population is expected to reach up to 10 thousand in 2013 is 97 communities. There are 33 communities served with sewage systems or in the design or implementation stages with funds specified for these communities. On the other hand, there are 64 communities that disposed of wastewater via cesspits. According to the PWA water sector plan for 2010-2030, the number of population of all communities shall have reached 10 thousand, all connected and served with a sewage system. The Multiple Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) approach, developed through this research and which is recommended to be put into use in 2010 and end by 2030 in accordance with the water sector plan, was applied to 64 communities which consider cesspits as a means of getting rid of wastewater. The 64 communities were ordered by priority. The study has put forward a number of recommendations such as that the Palestinian Water Authority set a long-term plan and a five-year plan to serve 20 communities ordered by priority and that donating bodies abide with this plan. 1 Chapter .1 Introductions

1.1 Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) or Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM) is a discipline aimed at supporting decision makers faced with making numerous and sometimes conflicting evaluations. MCDA aims at highlighting these conflicts and deriving a way to come to a compromise in a transparent process. Multi-criteria decision analysis has been recognized as an important tool in environmental decision-making for formalizing and addressing the problem of competing decision objectives (Janssen 1992, Lahdelma et al. 2000,

Linkov et al. 2006, Regan et al. 2007, Yatsalo et al. 2007). The decision-maker’s preferences over options depend on how well they perform according to a number of objectives or ―criteria‖ {C1…CM} that have been identified by relevant stakeholders to be the (only) issues on which a decision between options should be made. Unlike methods that assume the availability of measurements, measurements in MCDA are derived or interpreted subjectively as indicators of the strength of various preferences. Preferences differ from decision maker to other, so the outcome depends on who is making the decision and what their goals and preferences are. Here, we use MCDA method that depend on rankings of options for each criterion, and also weightings for the criteria. We chose the method because it has been employed widely in environmental and other decision-making

2 contexts (Janssen 1992, Lahdelma et al. 2000, Linkov et al. 2006, Regan et al. 2007, Yatsalo et al. 2007). Our chief concern is to highlight the impact that scoring scales and other assumptions in the process have on decision outcomes, and to suggest some resolutions for the identified problems.

1.2 Sanitation Sector in general The Sanitation problem is one of the problems facing communities and environment and thus affects the lives of humans, plants, and animals not only in Palestine but in all over the world. Therefore we need clear comprehensive and sustainable criteria for its development. There have been substantial developments in (waste) water management and treatment technology worldwide during the past decades (Gijzen, 2001). In spite of that, in 1997 three billion people on earth lacked adequate sanitation. In Africa alone, 80 million people are at risk of cholera, and 16 million cases of typhoid infections each year are a result of lack of clean drinking water and adequate sanitation (WHO, 1996). According to the Kyoto summit in 2003, two billion people will not have access to safe drinking water supplies in the year 2015. The Mediterranean countries are among the most affected region in the world. Wastewater has been identified as the main land-based point source pollutant causing contamination of the (coastal) marine environment (UNEP/GPA, 2000). The increase in population and therefore in sewage production poses a great challenge to developing and introducing sustainable sewage collection and treatment. The efforts in providing these essential services, especially for poorer regions of the world, are hindered by the

3 shortcomings of the current concept of urban water management and financial limitations.

Water is a scarce and precious resource in the Middle East. The Mediterranean countries are among the regions of water stress in the world (Water stress < 1700 m3/cap. year). Comparing the average international per capita minimum need according to the WHO (2006) standards (150 l/c/d) with the actual Palestinian water consumption (82 l/c/d); the deficit in water supply reached up to 41 million cubic meters (mcm) annually. Population growth, rising living standards and urbanization increase the pressure on the resource, leading to increasing costs of water supply.

Palestine is a typical example where scarce water resources are being massively contaminated by excessive use of both fertilizer and manure in agriculture and by uncontrolled discharge of municipal sewage into the environment. This might seriously endanger future potable water supplies of the population at large. In Palestine, the only substantial water resource available is groundwater. Presently, the application of wastewater treatment is limited due to high costs and the technological complexity of conventional systems. Seepage of domestic wastewater from on-site cesspits, inadequately performing off-site sewage treatment plants, together with the excessive use of fertilizer in agriculture has resulted in a dramatic increase of nitrate levels in aquifers. In the West Bank, signs of nitrate pollution in some agricultural wells and freshwater springs were reported every others, by Alawneh and Al-Sa`ed (1997).

4

Palestine suffers from both water scarcity and water pollution; water supply is dependent upon annual precipitation, which replenishes the aquifers, natural springs and streams in Palestinian territories. Ground water and rainwater collected in cisterns is exposed to severe pollution especially from untreated wastewater. In Palestine, domestic and industrial wastewaters are collected mainly in cesspits or, to a much lesser extent, in sewerage networks. In some villages and refugee camps, black wastewater is collected in cesspits (PCBS, 2007).

1.3 Research Question The following are the research questions:

1. What are the criteria that affect the decision-making in the sanitation sector in Palestine? And how to harmonize these criteria? 2. What are the locations of most need to solve the problem of sewage in West Bank?

1.4 Objectives of the Research This research aims to:  Overview and assess the sanitation sector investments, progress,

deficiencies, problems, existing and future plans.

 Identify the criteria that affect the decision-making in the sanitation sector and how to harmonize these criteria.  Develop a relationship to setting priorities of the sanitation sector according to the various criteria obtained by MCDA.

 Identify the areas which most need to solve the problem of sewage in the West Bank.

1.5 Methodology The research methodology goes through five phases. Figure 1.2 shows the relation between the phases. These phases are:

Phase 1: Data collection A. Review the present strategy of the PWA, MEnA and the PA environmental laws. B. Review the available documents, papers, reports, strategy of some

countries and studies on the sanitation sector. C. Identify the involved stakeholders in the sanitation sector such as institutions; organizations; ministries; universities and municipalities. D. Review the methods for determining the priorities in sanitation sector

in the ministries and relevant institutions. E. Review the selected criteria used in the sanitation projects. F. Review the performed projects in the sanitation sector (Investments). G. Address the current status of sanitation in the West Bank (sewage

systems, pumps, treatment plants, cesspits).

Phase 2: Criteria Identification A. Identify the criteria established by the laws and strategy in Palestine. B. Identify the criteria used in some countries.

C. Stakeholder Consultation such as institutions; organizations; ministries; universities and municipalities. D. Questionnaire for citizens. E. EIA Terms of Reference (TOR) of sanitation projects.

F. Determine the criteria followed by donors in the projects.

6

Phase 3: MCDA tools development A. Realistic evaluations should take into account multiple attributes in

decision making, so, in reality we have different attributes (criteria) that differ in importance. The ―difference in importance‖ makes it essential to give a weight for each attribute. This is done through consultation with stakeholders in the sanitation sector.

B. Normalize the weights by: Give a score for each attribute’s weight, compute the summation of all the scores, and divide the score of each attribute by the total score. See Table 1.1 and equation below:

Table 1.1 Calculate normalize weights to each attributes Attributes Weights Normalize weight 1 W1 W1/∑W 2 W2 W2/∑W 3 W3 W3/∑W ...... m Wm Wm/∑W

C. Each alternative carries a value rating for each attribute. The rating of

each alternative for each attribute indicates how well the alternative will perform as each attribute is considered. The rating will be determined by reference to the books, references and scientific papers and by reference to the owners of specialty in these attribute.

7

D. Managing uncertainty: The methodology for managing uncertainty developed for characterizing and quantifying uncertainty in the

decision-making process is showing in Figure 1.1 as can be seen from this figure, the decision-making process starts by defining the set of options of interest (i.e. potential, alternative solutions) for the analysed problem. At the same time, a set of criteria that will be used to

evaluate these optional solutions is identified too. This preliminary analysis is carried out by liaising with stakeholders and supported by the MCDA analyst. The objective is to identify/formulate planning decisions that could be potentially used to solve the problem analysed

and, at the same time, to define the quality standards that should be met by the implemented decision. This is an iterative process which eventually results in a list of optional solutions to be considered and the multiple criteria that will be used to evaluate and compare them.

Phase 4: Priorities settings A. Identify communities. We will take the towns that have population over 10 thousand people. In accordance with the directives of the PWA to resolve sanitation problems in the towns and villages with the population over 10 thousand people by 2030.

B. Compile information on each community through PCBS, PWA, EQA, various ministries, municipalities, and village councils. C. GIS application, expected the availability of the following maps: basins map, geological map, rainfall map, soil map, springs map, topography map, land use map, catchment area map, built up areas map, drainage systems map and satellite image.

11 Chapter 2 Literature review

2.1 Multi-Criteria Decision Analysis (MCDA) 2.1.1 Introduction Multiple criteria problems in general have received different approaches throughout history and different authors have been using multiple approaches and several methods for more than half a century. In that period, multiple criteria analysis has received ―different names‖ such as Multi-Criteria Decision Making (MCDM), Multi-Criteria Evaluation (MCE), Multi-Attribute Utility (MAU), and Multi-Objective Programming

(MOP). Terms to describe similar decision analysis methods in the literature vary. For example Doumpos (2002) uses the term ―multicriteria decision aid‖ (MCDA) and Dodgson et al, use a broader term ―multicriteria analysis‖ (MCA) which includes multicriteria decision analysis . For purposes of this thesis, the term ―multiple criteria decision analysis‖ (MCDA) will be used for the sake of consistency. Environmental managers of developing countries are faced with an additional problem. The situation they often face is one of a limited budget to implement all of their projects. They can perform cost effectiveness analyses to determine the best alternative and they can perform cost-benefit analyses to demonstrate that the project benefits outweigh the costs, but the issue they often encounter is that they have more justifiable projects than they have budget. The tools that these managers need are those that help them to determine which of

12 these justifiable projects are the most important. In other words, ―Which projects provide the most benefit to the successful management of their mission?‖ To make this determination, they need a tool to prioritize their projects in a manner, consistent with established criteria, that is satisfactory to all stakeholders (including ultimately the public and donor countries, which are typically the source of funding for such projects). Often the method that environmental managers resort to is one of ad hoc decision making. Disadvantages of this method are that such decisions are not transparent to other stakeholders and may appear unfair. With no structured basis for the decision process, it becomes less reliable and more difficult to defend to others. Often times experienced mangers set the right priorities based on ad hoc decision making, but cannot back up their decision satisfactorily to all stakeholders. According to Satterstrom Linkov, ―A systematic method of combining quantitative and qualitative inputs from scientific studies of risk, cost and cost-benefit analyses, and stakeholder views has yet to be fully developed for environmental decision making‖ (Linkov, et. al., 2006). More integrative decision analysis processes such as multiple criteria decision analysis (MCDA) may serve environmental managers better than the other tools. MCDA is an ―umbrella term to describe a collection of formal approaches which seek to take explicit account of multiple criteria in helping individuals or groups explore decisions that matter‖ (Belton and Stuart,

2002). MCDA facilitates understanding of the problem and uses the priorities and values of the decision makers to take the most appropriate

13 course of action. MCDA does not relieve the decision maker from the requirement to make a difficult decision; rather, it provides a structure within which decision makers and stakeholders express their values and priorities to each other, resulting in a better understanding of the problem, potential solutions, and areas in which different stakeholders agree. Many times a course of action results from the process that was not originally considered that reflects a compromise of the stakeholders. The MCDA process in general includes problem identification, problem structuring, model building, and implementation of the model to inform and challenge thinking, followed by determination of a course of action. MCDA ―… integrates common sense with empirical, quantitative, normative, descriptive, and value-judgment-based analysis‖ (Haimes, 2005). MCDA is supported by data management procedures, modeling methodologies, optimization and simulation techniques, and decision making approaches for the ultimate purpose of improving the decision making process (Haimes, 2005). According to Dodgson (2000), the main role of MCDA techniques is to ―deal with the difficulties that human decision-makers have been shown to have in handling large amounts of complex information in a consistent way. . . . [MCDA involves breaking a] problem into more manageable pieces to allow [for easier analysis] and then of reassembling the pieces to present a coherent overall picture to [aid in thinking and decision making.] As a set of techniques, MCDA provides different ways of disaggregating a complex problem, of measuring the

14 extent to which options achieve objectives, of weighting the objectives, and of reassembling the pieces‖ (Dodgson et al., 2000).

A common technique in MCDA models is the use a preference matrix that displays how each alternative under consideration compares to others in terms of the different selection criteria established for the evaluation. In simple applications, the analysis of the performance matrix directly may be all that is needed to determine the best solution. According to Dodgson (2000), in these situations one of the first steps is to determine ―if any of the [alternatives] are dominated by others. Dominance occurs when one option performs at least as well as another for all criteria and is better than the other for at least one criterion‖ (Dodgson et al., 2000). An analysis for dominance can be used to eliminate alternatives from consideration or to review the criteria used to determine if all applicable criteria has been included in the analysis.

In most MCDA applications, numerical analysis is conducted on the performance matrix to determine the preferred alternative. The analysis typically involves scoring in which a numerical score is assigned to each alternative based on strength of preference scale for each criterion.

Weighting is also commonly used to define the relative value or importance of each criterion. Models using this approach are referred to as compensatory techniques since low scores on some criteria can be offset by high scores on others. ―The most common way to combine scores on criteria, and relevant weights between criteria, is to calculate a simple weighted average of scores. Use of such weighted averages depends on the

15 assumption of mutual independence of preferences. This means that the judged strength of preference for an option on one criterion will be independent of its judged strength of preference on another‖ (Dodgson et al., 2000).

2.1.2 Multicriteria Solving Methodologies According to Saaty (1996), there are four major approaches or methodologies of multicriteria. First, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) that is a utility and value theory of economics based on the use of lottery comparisons. The second approach is probabilistic, based on Bayesian Theory.

Third, Outranking Method based on ordinal comparison of concordance and discordance. And fourth, Goal programming that is basically a modified version of Linear Programming.

2.1.3 Regulatory Uses of MCDA Decision process implementation is often based on the results of physical modelling and engineering optimization schemes. Even though federal agencies are required to consider social and political factors, the typical decision analysis process does not provide specifically for explicit consideration of such issues. Comparatively little effort is applied to engaging and understanding stakeholder perspectives (including the general public as well as potentially responsible parties and natural resource trustees) or to provide for potential learning among stakeholders. A result of this weakness in current and common decision models is that the process

16 tends to quickly become adversarial whereby there is little incentive to understand multiple perspectives or to share information. However, a review of regulatory and guidance documents reveals several programs in the United States where regulatory agencies involved in environmental issues are beginning to implement formal decision-analytic tools (such as MCDA) in their decision-making process.

2.1.3.1 U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Historically, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) has used essentially a single-measure approach to civil works, planning decisions through its Principles and Guidelines (P&G) framework (USACE 1983).

The USACE has primarily used net national economic development (NED) benefits as the single measure to choose among different alternatives. The P&G method makes use of a complex analysis of each alternative to determine the benefits and costs in terms of dollars and other non dollar measures (e.g., environmental quality and safety); the alternative with the highest net NED benefit (i.e., with no environmental degradation) is usually selected. The USACE uses a variety of mechanistic and deterministic fate and transport models to provide information in quantifying the various economic development and ecological restoration accounting requirements as dictated by P&G procedures. The level of complexity and scope addressed by these models is determined at the project level by a planning team. Issues such as uncertainty and risk are also addressed through formulation at the individual project management level.

17

While the P&G method is not specifically required for planning efforts related to military installation operation and maintenance, regulatory actions or operational or maintenance dredging, it presents a general decision approach that influences many USACE decisions. The USACE planning approach is essentially a mono criterion approach where a decision is based on a comparison of alternatives using 1 or 2 factors. Cost- benefit analysis, for example, is a mono criterion approach. The P&G approach has its challenges in that knowledge of the costs, benefits, impacts, and interactions is rarely precisely known. This single-number approach is limiting and may not always lead to an alternative or decision process satisfactory to stakeholders. In response to a USACE request for a review of P&G planning procedures, the National Research Council (NRC 1999) provided recommendations for streamlining planning processes, revising P&G guidelines, analyzing cost- sharing requirements, and estimating the effects of risk and uncertainty integration in the planning process. As an integration mechanism, the NRC (1999) recommended that further decision analysis tools be implemented to aid in the comparison and quantification of environmental benefits from restoration, flood damage reduction, and navigation projects. In addition, new USACE initiatives, such as the Environmental Operating Principles within USACE civil works planning, dictate that projects adhere to a concept of environmental sustainability that is defined as ―a synergistic process, whereby environmental and economic considerations are effectively balanced through the life of project planning, design,

18 construction, operation and maintenance to improve the quality of life for present and future generations‖ (USACE 2003a, p. 5).

In addition, revised planning procedures have been proposed to formulate more sustainable options through ―combined‖ economic development and ecosystem restoration plans (USACE 2003b). While still adhering to the overall P&G methodology, USACE (2003b) advises project delivery teams to formulate acceptable, combined economic development and ecosystem restoration alternatives using MCDA and trade-off methods (Males 2002). Despite the existence of new guidance and revisions on the application of MCDA techniques to environmental projects, there remains a need for a systematic strategy to implement these methods within specific USACE mission areas (e.g., navigation and restoration) as well as linkage with existing risk analysis and adaptive management procedures.

2.1.3.2 U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Stahl et al. (2002) and Stahl (2003) reviewed the decision analysis process in the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) and observed that although USEPA has a mandate to make decisions in the public interest pertaining to the protection of human health and welfare, there are barriers in current USEPA decision processes that may discourage stakeholder participation, integration of perspectives, learning about new alternatives, and consensus building. Similar to the USACE, the USEPA uses a variety of modeling tools to support its current decision-making processes. The majority of these tools are quantitative multimedia systems that assess

19 benefits and risks associated with each proposed alternative with the objective of selecting the best option (Stahl 2003).

Several USEPA guidance documents introduce decision-analytic tools and recommend their use. Multicriteria integrated resource assessment (MIRA) has been proposed as an alternative framework to existing decision analysis approaches at USEPA (Stahl et al. 2002; USEPA 2002; Stahl 2003). MIRA is a process that directs stakeholders to organize scientific data, establishes links between the results produced by the research community, and organizes applications in the regulatory community. MIRA utilizes AHP- based trade-off analysis to determine the relative importance of decision criteria. Multi-attribute product evaluation is inherent in the nature of life-cycle assessment, which has rapidly emerged as a tool to analyze and assess the environmental impacts associated with a product, process, or service

(Miettinen and Hamalainen 1997; Seppala et al. 2002). Further, the USEPA has developed the ―Framework for Responsible Environmental Decision- Making‖ to assist the Office of Pollution Prevention and Toxics in their development of guidelines for promoting the use of environmentally preferable products and services (USEPA 2000). The ―Framework for Responsible Environmental Decision-Making‖ decision-making method provides a foundation for linking life cycle indicator results with technical and economic factors for decision makers when quantifying the environmental performance of competing products.

20

2.1.3.3 U.S. Department of Energy Similar to the USACE and USEPA, the U.S. Department of Energy

(USDOE) uses a variety of multimedia models to support its decision- making process. A recent review (Corporate Project 7 Team 2003) concluded that even though there are a significant number of guidance documents, systems, and processes in use within the USDOE to determine, manage, and communicate risk, there is a great need for comparative risk assessment tools, risk management decision trees, and risk communication tools that would allow site managers to reach agreement with their regulators and other stakeholders while achieving mutual understanding of the relationship between risk parameters, regulatory constraints, and cleanup. Several USDOE models have been developed specifically for dealing with radiologically contaminated sites and sites with dual (chemical and radiological) contamination. Several of the current models are deterministic, although probabilistic multimedia models have also been developed and used (USDOE 2003). Several USDOE guidance documents introduce decision-analytical tools and recommend their use. Technical guidance developed for a wide range of USDOE decision needs (Baker et al. 2001) segregate the decision process into 8 sequential steps: defining the problem, determining the requirements, establishing the goals of the project, identifying alternative methods and products, defining the criteria of concern, selecting an appropriate decision-making tool for the particular situation, evaluating the alternatives against the criteria, and, finally, validating solution(s) against

21 the problem statement. Guidance also focuses on how to select a decision- making tool from among 5 recommended evaluation methods. These methods include pros-and-cons analysis, Kepner-Tregoe (K-T) decision analysis, AHP, MAUT, and cost-benefit analysis. The USDOE has developed a standard paradigm for selecting or developing a risk-based prioritization (RBP) system (USDOE 1998). The paradigm describes the issues that should be considered when comparing, selecting, or implementing RBP systems. It also identifies characteristics that should be used in evaluating the quality of a RBP system and its associated results. The USDOE (1998) recommends the use of MAUT as an RBP model because it is a flexible, quantitative decision analysis technique and management tool for clearly documenting the advantages and disadvantages of policy choices in a structured framework. The MAUT merits special consideration because it provides sound ways to combine quantitatively dissimilar measures of costs, risks, and benefits, along with decision-maker preferences, into high-level, aggregated measures that can be used to evaluate alternatives. The MAUT allows full aggregation of performance measures into 1 single measure of value that can be used for ranking alternatives. However, USDOE (1998) cautions that the results of MAUT analysis should not normally be used as the principal basis for decision making because decision making will generally require accounting for factors that cannot be readily quantified (e.g., equity). Furthermore,

USDOE (1998) guidance states that no technique can eliminate the need to

22 rely heavily on sound knowledge, data, and judgments or the need for a critical appraisal of results.

The USDOE has used a multi-attribute model as the core of its Environmental Restoration Priority System for prioritizing restoration projects developed in the late 1980s (Jenni et al. 1995). Although the Environmental Restoration Priority System was designed to operate with any specified set of values and tradeoffs, its use was limited to values that were elicited from USDOE managers, including those based on risk analysis. The USDOE has not applied the Environmental Restoration Priority System because of stakeholder opposition, although similar decision support systems have since been adopted for use at various USDOE sites (CRESP 1999). The USDOE has attempted to use simple weighting to aid program planning and budget formulation processes (CRESP 1999).

2.1.3.4 European Union A detailed review of the regulatory background and use of decision- analytic tools in the European Union (EU) was recently conducted within the EU-sponsored Contaminated Land Rehabilitation Network for

Environmental Technologies project (Bardos et al. 2002). The review found that environmental risk assessment, cost-benefit analysis, life cycle assessment, and MCDA were the principal analytical tools used to support environmental decision making for contaminated land management in 16

EU countries (Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy, the Netherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Sweden,

23

Switzerland, and the UK). Similar to the United States, quantitative methods such as risk assessment and cost-benefit analysis are presently the dominant decision support approaches, while MCDA and explicit tradeoffs are used less frequently. Pereira and Quintana (2002) reviewed the evolution of decision support systems for environmental applications developed by the EU Joint

Research Center. The concept of environmental decision support has evolved from highly technocratic systems aimed at improving understanding of technical issues by individual decision makers to a platform for helping all parties involved in a decision process engage in meaningful debate. Applications developed in the group include water resources management, sitting of waste disposal plants, hazardous substance transportation, urban transportation, management, and groundwater management.

2.1.4 MCDA Applications for Environmental Management and Related Uses The MCDA applications are relevant to environmental management, stakeholder involvement, and the management of contaminated lands.

Recent publications present more comprehensive reviews of studies relevant to management of terrestrial sites (Linkov et al. 2004) and contaminated sediments (Linkov et al. 2005). The use of MCDA is more strongly evident within the broad areas of environmental management and stakeholder involvement. Fewer efforts have been made to apply MCDA to the management of contaminated lands and risk analysis. It should be noted

24 that MCDA has also been applied in many other related policy development areas, such as manufacturing and services; medical, military, and public policy (Keefer et al. 2002a, 2002b); climate change (Bell et al. 2003); industrial facility sitting (Larichev and Olson 2001); energy policy (Hobbs and Meier 2000; Keefer et al. 2002a, 2002b); agricultural resource management (Hayashi 2000); and life-cycle assessment (Seppala et al.

2002).

2.1.4.1 Application to general environmental management The MCDA methods have been extensively applied to a range of environmental management challenge. Each of the examples identified in the course of this review were classified into 1 of 5 application areas: (1) prioritization of site/areas for industrial/military activity, (2) environmental/remedial technology selection, (3) environmental impact assessment, (4) stakeholder involvement, and (5) natural resource planning.

 Prioritization of sites/areas for industrial/military activity— Management of contaminated sites often requires site zoning for remediation, restoration, or other uses. Even though applications of

MCDA methods for contaminated site zoning could not be found in

this review, the MCDA methods described in (Kiker 2009) (e.g., multi-attribute value theory (MAUT/MAVT), analytical hierarchy process (AHP), and outranking) have been used, in conjunction with geographic information system, for selection of site boundaries and

the identification of geographical areas for related uses (e.g., industrial or military).

25

Mendoza et al. (2002) used AHP for allocating areas for military training exercises at Ford Hood, Texas, USA. Keisler and Sundell

(1997) and Sharifi et al. (2003) proposed a framework that integrates MAUT and spatial analysis to determine national park boundaries. Joerin and Musy (2000) developed a generic method to integrate multiple considerations, such as impacts, air quality, noise,

accessibility, climate, utility networks (e.g., water, electricity), and aesthetics related to land management. Vaillancourt and Waaub (2002) used outranking and a geographic information system framework to select a site for a new waste management facility in

Montreal, Quebec, Canada.  Environmental/remedial technology selection— the selection of a feasible remedial action is usually the final stage of a contaminated site investigation (e.g., as required under the U.S. Superfund

program). This review identified several instances in which MCDA methods were used to select the best technology or remedial method. For example, a MAUT-based method was applied to compare

current and alternative water control plans in the Missouri River,

USA (Prato 2003). A related problem of regulating water flow in a river–lake system was addressed by Hamalainen et al. (2001) from the perspectives of group decision theory and stakeholder consensus building. Wakeman (2003) used the simple multiattribute rating

technique (SMART) (Edwards 1977) to decide which action alternative to implement in handling the contaminated river sediment

26

at Milltown Dam, Montana, USA. Factors considered by Edwards (1977) included availability of materials and services, ability to

construct, and reliability. One of the most advanced applications of MCDA techniques in this area was implemented for nuclear accident emergency management as a part of the EU-RODOS project, which used a MAUT analysis for strategy selection for population

protection after a nuclear accident (Ehrhardt and Shershakov 1996).  Environmental impact assessment—Environmental impact assessments (EIA) are routinely conducted for all major projects in the United States with the potential to affect the environment. The

assessment of site contamination is often an integral part of EIA. Janssen (2001) reviewed 21 EIAs conducted in the Netherlands in the period 1992–2000. Most of the EIAs reviewed by Janssen (2001) used weighted summation methods, although a few projects used

either the AHP or a MAUT-based approach. Marttunen and Hamalainen (1995) reviewed MAUT/SMART and the AHP methods used for decision analysis in EIAs for the

assessment of environmental impacts of a water development project

in Finland. SMART was chosen over AHP because the AHP procedure proved to be too time consuming for stakeholders (Marttunen and Hamalainen 1995). Ramanathan (2001) recommended the use of AHP for considering multiple criteria and

multiple stakeholders in EIA as well as to assess the socioeconomic impact of a proposed liquefied petroleum gas recovery plant in an

27

industrial area in India. Rogers and Bruen (1998) used Elimination Et Choix Traduisant la Realite (ELECTRE) III (outranking)

methodology in evaluating thresholds for noise impacts from a highway project in Ireland. Al-Rashdan et al. (1999) used Preference Ranking Organization Method for Enrichment Evaluations (PROMETHEE) (outranking) methodology to rank environmental

impact assessments related to wastewater projects in ; the methodology was found to be very useful in solving problems with conflicting criteria.  Natural resource management—the management of natural

resources has involved the application of MCDA. Steiguer et al. (2003) developed an annotated bibliography that includes 124 examples of the application of MCDA to projects ranging from theoretical studies to real-world forest and natural resource

management situations. Steiguer et al. (2003) indicate that MCDA constitutes a newer and, perhaps, more acceptable method for quantifying and evaluating public preferences. Nevertheless, few

studies included empirical testing of MCDA utility or its feasibility

and, in most of the studies, researchers have used hypothetical data or, at best, simplified decision situations; few studies were designed to implement an MCDA-generated management strategy. The AHP approach within MCDA has received the most attention in

natural resource management applications (Steiguer et al. 2003). The application of AHP in natural resource planning is summarized in

28

Schmoldt et al. (2001) with Table 2.1 listing some representative publications. Schmoldt et al. (1994) and Schmoldt and Peterson

(2001b) used AHP to address different aspects of natural park management, including developing inventory and monitoring programs, as well as strategic management plans. Pavlikakis and Tsihrintzis (2003) evaluated the utility of MAUT and AHP in

selecting a technically suitable and socially acceptable management plan for a national park in eastern Macedonia and Thrace in Greece.

32

Methods of MCDA have been extensively applied to a wide range of projects in forest management; AHP was applied for a project-scale forest management problem by Rauscher et al. (2000), and MAUT analysis was applied to identify policy alternatives to manage a budworm outbreak in a local site in Canada (Levy et al. 2000). Kangas et al. (2001) tested the application of several MAUT and outranking methods for large-scale forest policy planning in Finland. Store and Kangas (2001) used MAUT-based methods to conduct a habitat suitability evaluation over large forested areas. Finally, Tran et al. (2002) used AHP to assess the environmental vulnerability of forests across the mid-Atlantic region in the United States.

The MCDA has also been applied to manage aquatic resources. Simon and Pascoe (1999) reviewed applications of MCDA in fisheries management. Brown et al. (2001) used weighting-based trade-off analysis to select a management option for Buccoo Reef Marine Park in Tobago; criteria evaluated included ecological, social, and economic factors. McDaniels (1995) used a MAUT approach to select among alternative commercial fishery openings involving conflicting long-term objectives for salmon management.

2.1.4.2 Application to Stakeholder Involvement Most of the examples presented here attempt to represent the value judgments of a single decision maker and incorporate these value judgments into the overall decision-making process. Stakeholder values are often considered as 1 attribute, along with others, such as costs or risk reduction. The MCDA can also be used as a framework that permits

33 stakeholders to structure their views about the pros and cons of different environmental and remedial management options. Applications of MCDA for group decision making in other areas have been reviewed by Bose et al. (1997) and Matsatsinis and Samaras (2001). Arvai and Gregory (2003) was the only study identified that addressed the application of decision-analytic tools to include stakeholder involvement at contaminated sites. Arvai and Gregory (2003) compared 2 approaches for involving stakeholders in identifying radioactive waste cleanup priorities at USDOE sites, (1) a traditional approach that involved communication of scientific information that is currently in use in many USDOE, USEPA, and other U.S. federal programs and (2) a values-oriented communication approach that helped stakeholders make difficult trade-offs across technical and social concerns. The 2nd approach has strong affinity to the MAUT- based trade-offs discussed earlier in this paper. Arvai and Gregory (2003) concluded that the incorporation of value-based trade-offs information leads stakeholders to making more informed choices. Several studies propose the use of MCDA tools for consensus building and advocate the utility of this application or illustrate the value-oriented approaches that are based on MAUT. In general, applications may include individual surveys and workshops designed to elicit value judgment and construct decision alternatives. Specific applications include water resource management (McDaniels et al. 1999; Gregory et al. 2001), mining

(Gregory and Keeny 1994), wilderness preservation (McDaniels and Roessler 1998), and estuary management (Gregory and Wellman 2001).

34

The McDaniels et al. (1999) study concludes that value-based approaches result in a higher level of comfort for participants and are useful in developing consensus-based management decisions. The MAUT-based applications appear to be used in stakeholder value elicitation for regional forest planning (Ananda and Herath 2003), air quality valuation (Kwak et al. 2001), and agricultural applications (Gomez-Limon et al. 2003). In addition, Schmoldt and Peterson (2001a) advocated the use of AHP as a decision support tool in workshop settings for forest resource management. The examples presented previously used MCDA to facilitate consensus building. An alternative application of MCDA is in the organization of diverse interests instead of seeking consensus-based middle ground. Gregory and Failing (2002) argue that a clear expression of difference facilitates development and acceptance of management plans. Another approach to ranking risk involves soliciting the views of participants both as individuals and in a group setting (Morgan et al. 2000; Florig et al. 2001). In this manner, decision makers can obtain information on the rankings of options that involve multiple objectives by weighing the attributes identified by individuals and groups developed from the 2 methods. Mental modeling (Morgan et al. 2002) may be a promising tool for assessing individual judgments. It involves individual, 1-on-1 interviews, leading participants through a jointly determined agenda of topics. The method allows free expression and encourages elaboration on topics in order to reveal individual perspectives at considerable depth. When

35 effectively done, analysts can identify what people believe and why they believe it. They are also able to compare analyses over time and provide insights into why beliefs change. Environmental applications of mental modeling include management of the Illinois River basin in eastern Oklahoma, USA, (Focht et al. 1999; Whitaker and Focht 2001) and in energy policy development (Gregory et al. 2003).

2.1.4.3 Application to Management of Contaminated Lands Most applications of MCDA have been conducted by USDOE to develop decision models to evaluate specific criteria for the selection of remediation technologies. Grelk (1997), Grelk et al. (1998), and Parnell et al. (2001) have developed a decision analysis value model that is based on the process required by the legislation in the United States supporting the Superfund program. The USDOE has also sponsored a series of studies designed to develop decision models used to perform analysis of remedial alternatives for a mixed-waste subsurface disposal site at Idaho National Environmental Engineering Laboratory, USA. Ralston et al. (1996) developed a generic model that incorporates life cycle cost and technological risk assessment for landfill waste site remediation. Timmerman et al. (1996) proposed the use of MAUT by USDOE for selecting technology judged to pose the lowest level of failure or development risks. Deschaine et al. (1998) used a MCDA simulation model based on AHP to select the most promising remediation projects from a 114 radiological site remediation portfolio at the USDOE Savannah River Site. Accorsi et al. (1999a, 1999b), Bonano et al. (2000), and Apostolakis (2001) developed a methodology that uses

36

AHP, influence diagrams, MAUT, and risk assessment techniques to integrate the results of advanced impact evaluation techniques with stakeholder preferences.

2.2 Sanitation Sector in Palestinian Territories 2.2.1 Introduction In 1999 the Palestinian Environmental Strategy was adopted. Its time span was until 2010. The strategy has paid special attention to the sanitation sector. However, a year later of the strategy adoption, the political situation was deteriorated and the consequences were damaging the Palestinian environmental plans and the environment as well. As a result, the sustainable projects changed to be emergency projects that deal with the moment situation. Although efforts have been undertaken to establish a regional Strategy for wastewater collection, treatment and disposal, these concepts have not been followed up on a more precise level. Such studies have been presented municipality-wise without coordinating efforts on a regional level. In 1997, UNDP has sponsored a Conceptual Strategy for the sewage disposal in the West bank Region. As a result in 1998 the Regional Plan for

West Bank Governorates Water and Wastewater has been elaborated. The preliminary objective of this master plan was to define the existing types of sewerage facilities and their locations; to make recommendations for the phasing of the required works and to identify the institutional set- ups needed to ensure efficient operation and maintenance and financial viability of the system, with particular attention to the option of

37 transforming the Jerusalem Water Undertaking (JWU) into a regional water and sewerage service provider.

The conceptual plan has been prepared as an integral part of necessary measures to remedy and improve these unsatisfactory conditions included:  Physical planning for implementation of sewerage systems  Institutional plan to comparatively evaluate potentially applicable

institutional types, and to determine the most visible and efficient institutional arrangement.  Financial and economical plans to comparatively evaluate potentially applicable utility organizational models, and to determine the most

feasible and economically efficient model. The Palestinian census in 2007 has revealed that only 28% of the West Bank communities are connected to a sanitation system. In addition, only 8% of the collected wastewater is being treated. The wastewater mostly disposed through cesspits or flow in the wadies, and though, there are serious risks of percolation of contaminants to the groundwater which is the main source of fresh water in the West Bank.

The uncontrolled discharge of the untreated raw wastewater to the subsurface poses potential risks to human health and contributed to the degradation of the environment. This ongoing practice has been responsible for contaminating and adversely impacting the scare water resources, particularly springs and shallow water bearing units.

During the past years, the Palestinian Water Policy and Strategy, and other legislative regulations were not effectively enforced reflected by actual

38 facts and figures, few of them are mentioned above. Thus the Palestinian Water Authority (PWA) recognizes that in terms of providing sustainable

Wastewater treatment facilities, it is facing a continuous battle in keeping pace with the impacts of disengagement, unilateral actions of the Israeli government and unfair Israeli Water Law. As the responsibility of regulation, formulation, promotion and monitoring of sanitation services are vested with the PA Government, Town and Village Councils and Local Authorities, all this calls for an urgent development of a unified Palestinian Wastewater Policy. Nowadays, there is an increasing interest in rehabilitating and developing the sanitation sector in the Palestinian territories.

2.2.2 Regulatory Framework Historically, the current water legal framework has been impacted by several administrative and political regimes. Between 1952 and 1967

Jordanian water legislations were enacted within the West Bank while the British system found application in the Gaza Strip, which was under the Egyptian administration. Stemmed within the Israeli Water Law of 1959, an Israeli Military Order No. 2 of 1967 affirmed that all water resources in the occupied Palestinian Territories as state owned by . However, in the Oslo II Accord Israel recognizes Palestinian water rights in the West Bank and these are to be transferred once agreed in the final status negotiations. Currently, the Article 40, the water treaty signed by the Israeli and Palestinian sides governs the wastewater management within the West Bank and Gaza strip. Also, the memorandum of Understanding (MoU,

39

2003), inserted updates and further rules and guidelines pertaining to establishment of wastewater treatment facilities and reuse schemes.

The Palestinian Water Authority (PWA) was established in April 1995 by the Palestinian Authority (PA) through Decree no. 90/1995. The PWA derives its authority from By-law No. 2 of 1996 and Water Law No. 3 of 2002. The Water Law established the National Water Council (NWC) consisting of representatives of the most important stakeholders in the water sector. The Palestinian National Authority (PNA) has formulated both a Water Policy and a Water Strategy to tackle the increased water scarcity and to manage, protect and conserve the limited water resources available. The strategy entailed major high politics as the Palestinian water rights and low politics like promotion of national water regulations, build institutional capacity, improve data, increase capital investment in water and wastewater sectors, enforce pollution control, and promote public participation. In addition, the Environmental Quality Authority (EQA; formerly Ministry of Environmental Affairs, MEnA) developed a Palestinian Environment Strategy (PES), where the overexploitation of water resources and the degradation of water quality were identified as the issues of highest priority. Also, an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) policy was endorsed by the Legislative Council, where new wastewater treatment facilities shall obtain an official permit for establishment through an environmental impact assessment study.

The key regulatory documents regarding wastewater treatment and reuse in the West Bank and Gaza are the Water Law No. (3) of year 2002; the

40

Agreements with Israel, particularly the MOU of December 2003; and the Environmental Law No. (7) of 1999.

2.2.2.1 Water Law No. 3, 2002 Water Law No. (3) of year 2002 which stresses the overall need to secure sustainable development of water resources in a equitable way, makes the following key provisions with regards to the disposal, treatment and reuse of wastewater:  Property: All water resources are considered public property (article 3);  Regulation: A license must be obtained to set up or operate a facility

for water or wastewater (article 4) in order to ensure that effluent discharges met standards that will not pollute existing resources;  Finance: A unified water tariff system should be set (article 20) in a fair and equitable manner in order to promote the best use of water

resources;  Institutions: The Water Authority has the juridical personality and full responsibility for managing the water resources and wastewater

in WBG; Water utilities will be established to provide water and

wastewater services (article 25); Regional utilities and water users associations shall set the prices of water for different usage, in accordance with the approved tariff system (article 26);  Protection of the Environment : Special guidelines for the

Environmental Impact Assessment for any activity related to water resources should be prepared (article 29); Anyone who causes

41

pollution in any water resource or its supply system must remove the pollution to that source or system at his own expense (article 32).

2.2.2.2 Joint Water Committee There are two agreements with Israel with relevance to waste water treatment and re-use:  The Memorandum of Understanding on Guidelines and Technical

Criteria for Sewerage Projects, signed 31st December 2003, Israeli – Palestinian Joint Water Committee; and  The Palestinian-Israeli Interim Agreement On The West Bank & The Gaza Strip, Washington, D.C., September 28, 1995; Annex III,

Protocol Concerning Civil Affairs, ARTICLE 40: Water and Sewerage. The MOU is the most recent document that governs treatment and reuse standards and will consequently drive the treatment technology and reuse strategies that will be used in WBG. The MOU sets out agreements for the collection systems, wastewater treatment, sludge treatment, effluent reuse and disposal, sludge reuse and disposal and cooperation between the two sides. The MOU’s very high standards will make implementation costly and very difficult even though a phased implementation approach to meeting requirements has been agreed. The implications and requirements of the MOU of December 2003 signed by the Israeli and Palestinian Joint Water Committee include the following elements:

42

 All sewerage projects must be complete systems – i.e. collection systems from source, conveyance to treatment plant, treatment plant,

a plan for reuse or safe disposal, conveyance to point of reuse or discharge, and safe reuse or disposal of sludge;  Treatment plants must be modular to allow for future expansion: In the first phase secondary treatment must be achieved; In the second

expansion phase tertiary treatment must be achieved;  Agricultural reuse is to be the primary focus for reuse. This must include sufficient seasonal effluent storage;  Other forms of reuse must gain mutual agreement from both parties;

 Industrial wastewater must be treated separately in a pre-treatment facility; and  Alternatives for the location of treatment plants must be presented to both parties and the selection will be agreed in the Joint Water

Committee.

2.2.2.3 Environment Law No. (7) of 1999 The environmental law No. (7) of 1999 provides for the protection of water resources related to treatment and reuse. The implications of the

Environment Law and effluent standards include:  The requirement to set standards and norms for collecting, treating, reusing and disposing wastewater and storm water in a sound manner which comply with the preservation of the environment and public

health;

43

 The requirement that any solid, liquid or other substance conforms to the conditions and standards that the competent agencies determine.

2.2.2.4 National Water Plan It is stated in the principles of water resources management in this plan that we should utilize all technically and economically viable alternative sources including wastewater re-use, brackish water and rainwater harvesting wherever, and to the extent, practical to supplement overall supply including artificial recharge to the groundwater aquifers by infiltration. It is stated also in this plan that farmers and relevant institutions should plan for maximum use of wastewater re-use in future including provision for necessary storage, health precautions and crop patterns. The use of treated wastewater and lower quality water must form a critical component of future agricultural strategy. The long term target is that only minimal fresh water will be provided for soil flushing and high value crops.

Other low quality water and conservation practices, including brackish water, storm water harvesting, blending of water and conjunctive use of saline and non-saline water, utilized to optimal economic and practical effect in accordance with specific targets such as utilizing of 40 million cubic meter per year in the West Bank and 63 in Gaza of treated effluent.

2.2.3 Waste Water Management Plan report (PWA Wastewater Policies) These section is explain the main point contained in the Waste Water

Management Plan report was prepared to PWA by Technical Directorate

44

Research And Development Department in august 2003 which is the last report in this field.

Management of wastewater, storm water and reuse should be administered through regional utilities for large systems wherever possible, and through other appropriate structures for smaller and remote areas, integrated with other sectors in national plans, and should result in a safe, healthy, and protected environment. All staff must be trained according to regulations, by donor organisation for the first phase and based on Palestinian organisations on long term basis. As a part of all new major developments focus must be given to the development of a Palestinian wastewater industry. Hence representatives for consultants, manufacturers, agents, universities and the relevant authorities must be included in the projects from the earliest preparation stage.

According to the report some policies that have to follow the Palestinian Water Authority:

2.2.3.1 Wastewater Collection Policies For all projects, all elements must be included, as least taken into consideration. The relevant elements of collection systems, like storm water harvesting, industrial connection, rainwater collection and upgrading of poor quality network must be addressed in any wastewater treatment plant development. PWA must make sure these elements are discussed and addressed in any big development project. If this is not done, the ambition levels described in the policy and the stated goals will not be reached.

45

The starting point is to establish clear regulations, specifications and standards for the wastewater handling, and to make sure that collection constructions fully comply. The collection system for wastewater from domestic use within a defined drainage area should be collected and managed separately from storm water, and every wastewater source within this area should be connected to the system. Sewerage system design should be based on gravity wherever appropriate and must include solutions for existing or potential flooding problems. Storm water should be collected and used as a supplementary water source.

Where direct use of storm water is not feasible, effective recharge projects should be planned and implemented. More rainwater must be collected directly into cistern and water tanks. The preliminary goal for year 2010 is to triple the existing collection volume in

Palestine compared to year 2000. Infiltration rates must be increased in areas where they are low today. These areas should within year 2010, recharge 3 % more of the precipitation than today (preliminary goal until more information is collected that makes it possible to establish goals with better basics). Flooding problems connected to storm water runoff must be identified in detail within the year 2001, and all major ones, solved within the year 2010.

Building codes of practice must encourage collection of precipitation and reuse in an optimum way according to the water quality.

46

For every project that involves construction of new sewerage systems or rehabilitation of existing system, storm water must be considered in order to separate systems, include storm water solutions in the plan and construction in accordance with policy and goals. Areas with low infiltration rates must be identified and studies planned which aims to increase the rates.

Within mid 2003 the goals must be quantified for short and long terms and divided into areas. The sewerage system, including pumping stations, storage systems, overflows, etc. should have a minimum negative impact on the environment. As long as the performances of the major treatment plants are uncertain, septic tanks, cess- pits and local other acceptable local treatment can be kept, as a pre-treatment or not connected. The detailed solutions will be decided in dialogue between PWA and the plant owners.

2.2.3.2 Industrial Wastewater Policies For all relevant development projects, industrial connections and treatment must be addressed. PWA must, through a permit process make sure this element is taken care of. Ministry of Industry must be involved according to agreed procedures. All industries should be regulated through discharge permits from PWA and comply with other PNA regulations (municipal by-laws, Ministry of

Environmental Affairs, Ministry of Local Governance, etc). The discharge permits should include assurances that industrial effluents must have an

47 acceptable quality and flow before being discharged into water bodies or domestic wastewater systems, and should not be discharged with contents of heavy metals or micro pollutants above given limits. In approving and issuing a discharge permit, emphasis should be given to minimising the impacts from industrial effluents through internal measures such as recycling, clean industrial processes and pre-treatment by using the best available technology (taking economy into consideration).

2.2.3.3 Wastewater Treatment Policies PWA must make sure its policy and goals are implemented through the development. Through discussions with donor countries and beneficiaries this must be assured. Ministry of Agriculture must be involved in the process from the beginning in order to achieve successful reuse. All treatment and/or reuse systems will be regulated through permits from PWA. The permit should ensure that the system design

 Is planned and implemented according to approved regulations, specifications, standards, and guidelines  Allow treatment of calculated loads and meet stated effluent quality

for the designed period

 Solves identified and potential environmental and health problems Smaller treatment plants must be of types or classes accepted by PWA regulations and operated accordingly. The standard treatment demands for bigger plants are described in documents from Palestinian Standard Institution. Low cost technology is encouraged wherever it is most feasible.

48

All wastewater treatment processes should be chosen and designed to consume as little energy as feasible and potential energy in wastewater and sludge must be utilised whenever appropriate. In addition, independent alternative energy sources should be installed, if appropriate (e.g., solar systems, battery, heating exchange pumps, etc.). Farmers should be involved in energy recovery projects thereby benefiting from wastewater sludge utilisation. PWA emphasises that sludge and treated wastewater are valuable resources that must be utilised in an optimal way. In this regard agriculture is given priority for reuse and 65% of treated wastewater should be utilised in this sector. Organising reuse of treated wastewater involves many stakeholders, and should be co-ordinated on a national level and carried out on the appropriate local level. The Wastewater Reuse Technical coordination committee (between PWA and MoA) will the focal point for regulation of reuse activities. Public participation in wastewater reuse should be ensured and carried out according to international practice for involvement.

For the optimal use of the treated effluent, incentives need to be established and implemented in order to encourage and promote the use of treated wastewater in different sectors, including industry.

2.2.3.4 Awareness and Stakeholders participation PWA must ensure that needed awareness and stakeholder involvement, through the Department of Consumer Affairs. This must be addressed at an

49 early stage of any process. It is very important for a smooth implementation and especially for successfully implementation of reuse schemes.

PWA recognises that accessibility for environmentally safe wastewater services must be assured in order to achieve better social equality. In this respect wastewater treatment and reuse policies must include stakeholders' involvement throughout the policy and strategy formulation by awarding and informing them, in order to create a sense of ownership and understanding. This approach will result in transparency and build-up credibility among the parties and facilitate a smooth implementation of the strategies and action plans.

Vital elements of the policy can only be possible in close cooperation with stakeholders like farmers and other affected people. Especially awareness must be established for the utilisation of sludge and treated wastewater as important resources and to achieve acceptance of the principle of recycling of resources.

2.2.3.5 Tariff Policy Through the Tariff Department, PWA must make sure all development understand the tariff model and are capable of implementing this. This is needed as early as possible in any project. Partly this will be achieved through general information and communication and partly through implementation of bigger projects. PWA has developed a tariff model, based on parts of the general policy. It will be very important to, monitor the experiences regarding affordability, and including of depreciation and O&M costs to adjust the ambition levels.

50

General tariff policies are,  Make sure the projects are affordable and feasible

 Overall fees for storm water handling, wastewater collection, and treatment, storage and reuse should be calculated in order to achieve full cost recovery of the system(s) taking overall goals into consideration

 The elements of these fees should be distributed using the Polluter Pays Principle (PPP)  Households cannot be charged more than the defined affordability and the government should cover the gap between full cost recovery

and affordability  The farmers must contribute for making treated wastewater available for irrigation To facilitate enforcement of regulations and to sustain development of the sector, PWA will use economic incentives for polluting industries to abate and control pollution.

2.2.3.6 Legal and Administration Policy The established licensing system for wastewater project must be used as soon as possible for all relevant projects. PWA must also invite other relevant authorities to participate in these processes. PWA is considered according to By Law No. 3 (2002) and the Water Law of 17.07.2002, as the responsible Palestinian authority for

51

 Licensing and approving all water and wastewater projects and activities including wastewater and storm water collection, treatment,

reuse, and/or disposal  Ensuring and overseeing the efficiency and compliance of these activities and projects initially and during operation, according to approved regulations, specifications and standards.

Administering the construction, operation, and maintenance of wastewater and reuse systems will be done by municipalities or regional utilities with various levels of co-ordination and involvement of other PNA organs, such as the Ministry of Environmental Ministry of Industry, Ministry of

Education, Ministry of Agriculture, Ministry of Local Government, and the Palestinian Water Authority.

52 Chapter 3

Current situation of institutional wastewater management agencies in palestine

Several institutions including mainly the National Water Council, Palestinian Water Authority (PWA), local committees and village councils, local and international NGO’s and institutions, work in the wastewater sector in the Palestinian areas, the Figure 3.1 is showing the Water Sector Framework and Figure 3.2 is showing the main stakeholders in water and waste water sector and the relationship between it.

Figure 3.1: Water Sector Framework

53

Figure 3.2: Main stakeholders in water and sanitation sector

3.1 National Water Council National water council is highest body responsible of water and waste water sector; Figure 3.3 is showing national water council framework.

54

Figure 3.3: National Water Council framework Duties and prerogatives of the National Water Council:  Sanction the general water policy;  Sanction the policy for development and utilization of water resources and the different usage;  Ratify plans and programs aimed at organizing the usage of water, the preventing wastage, and directing consumption;  Ratify the tariff policy;  Confirming the allocation of funds for investment in the water sector;

 Approving the periodic reports concerning the activities of the

Authority and its work;

55

3.2 The Palestinian Water Authority Since 1996, the PWA is responsible for regulation of the Palestinian wastewater policy, including collection, treatment, sludge handling and reuse. It is the Palestinian legal body that is responsible of:  Licensing and approving all wastewater projects and activities including wastewater and storm water collection, treatment, reuse,

and/or disposal  Ensuring and overseeing the efficiency and compliance of these activities and projects initially and during operation, according to approved regulations, specifications and standards. However, and

due to the existing complicated political circumstances in the West Bank and the insufficient wastewater management expertise staff, the PWA faces great challenges in enforcing its regulations. Coordinating with relevant wastewater sector development agencies

like the NGO’s and donors is still poor. The main issues concerning the management of wastewater such as the collection systems, treatment plants, regulations, standards, and regulations are not

available yet.

The Palestinian Water Authority (PWA) is by its by-laws a governmental institution with an independent status with its own budget and follows the President of the Palestinian National Authority and has a commissioner who is appointed by its President. PWA is responsible for the management of the most scare and vital sources for sustaining life, for promoting

56 development, and for maintaining the environmental in Palestine. Water is in focus of the attention in the general public and the medic.

3.3 Other Government Institutions Several other government agencies bear or will bear responsibilities directly related to water resources and water and wastewater services. The Joint Water Committee (JWC) was established under the as a means to share information about water issues affecting both Israel and Palestine. As a member of the Joint Water Committee, the PWA is the primary Palestinian contact with Israeli authorities. The Ministry of Agriculture (MOA) is responsible for planning and policy concerning the use of water for agriculture, including reuse of treated wastewater. As facilities for the treatment and distribution of treated wastewater are implemented and brought into service, the responsibility for the conversion of farmers to more efficient irrigation and more value added cropping will fall heavily on MOA. The Ministry of Environmental Affairs (MEnA) is concerned with protecting the Gaza Strip’s natural environment. This includes setting standards related to the conservation and protection of the environment, such as:  Minimum water requirement to preserve the environment  Disposal of treated sewage in wadis, streams, rivers, lakes and seas  Disposal of treated sewage in environments, which affects the bio-

diversity

57

 Regulation of the industrial wastewater which is not treated by the utility

 Disposal of brine from the desalination plants The Ministry of Local Government (MOLG) is responsible for the coordination of all Gaza Strip municipalities and other forms of local government. As such they have considerable influence in the absorption of municipal resources into the CWMU and in the continuing provision of water and sewer services to the population. The Ministry of Planning (MOP) is responsible for policy development, coordination, and planning for the overall development of Palestinian areas, including both the water resources and agriculture sectors. Every three years, MOP prepares a Palestinian Development Plan (PDP), comprising sections submitted by Palestinian institutions from various sectors. PWA prepares the section on water and wastewater.

Ministry of Health (MOH) is responsible for the protection of public health and safety. This includes setting the standards that are related to the public health such as:

 Drinking water quality.

 Disposal of treated wastewater in bathing waters.  Disposal of treated wastewater in environment which affects the quality of some products such as fish.  Treated wastewater reuse for irrigation which may affect the

agricultural products  Disinfection and drinking water storage.

58

3.4 Local Committees, Municipalities, and Village Councils The local bodies are managed and develop public services in the cities and village including the supply of sanitary services. Local committees are formed wherever a village council does not exist and in refugee camp. The councils and committees are generally unqualified from technical, administrative and financial viewpoints, which lead to inefficient management.

3.5 Local NGO’s and International Organizations Many non-governmental organizations (NGOs), scientific and technical groups, professional and other associations working on wastewater management in Palestine such as Palestinian Hydrology Group (PHG), Palestinian Agricultural Relief Committee (PARC), Applied Research Institute Jerusalem (ARIJ), House of Water and Environment (HWE), Water and Environmental Studies Institute at An-Najah National

University (WESI), Centre for Environmental and Occupational Health Sciences (CEOHS) and Water and Soil Environmental Research Unit (WSERU) at Bethlehem University, Institute of Environmental and Water

Studies (IEWS) at University, and the United Nations Relief and

Works Agency for the Palestinian Refugees in the Near East (UNRWA). International organizations of various statuses such as United Nations Development Program (UNDP), World Bank (WB), and German Agency for Technical Co-operation (GTZ), US Agency for International

Development (USAID), Save the Children Federation (SCF), America

59

Near East Refugee Aid (ANERA), and (CARE) conducted some wastewater infrastructure projects.

The aforementioned organizations and institutions operate under severe constraints: poor capacities, high political instability and uncertainty, and inadequate sources of funding. Moreover, co-ordination among the institutions is poor, which result in vagueness in their roles in the management process of the wastewater services. Consequently, a new institutional management approach with a clear legal framework for optimizing wastewater management in Palestine should be developed.

60 Chapter 4 Situation of sanitation in palestine and future plans

During the occupation period, sanitation sector to be a much neglected issue, there are collection networks in the main cities and refugee camp (served 28-32% of population) remaining population uses cesspits. The situation for wastewater system in Palestine (WW Departments in PWA, 2012):

 During the occupation period, wastewater sector used to be a very neglected issue  There are collection networks in the main cities and refugee camps (served 28-32% of population) remaining population uses cesspits

 Many of these networks are old and poorly designed established before 1967 through Jordanian Administration and stayed without development  The majority of the population uses individual or communal cesspits for

temporary storage of wastewater.  Ιn refugee camps sewage flows through open drains originally constructed to convey rainwater.  Most villages have no sewerage system and wastewater is discharged

into absorption pits.  The existing wastewater treatment plants in the West Bank are inadequate to serve the volume of wastewater produced  The situation of the sewerage system is extremely critical. Both the

West Bank and Gaza are facing a series of wastewater and sanitation

related problems:

61

 large scale discharge of untreated wastewater  leaking of collected wastewater from sewer systems and cesspits

 water treatment plants that are badly functioning  uncontrolled reuse of untreated wastewater by the irrigation sector  Total production of wastewater is around 70 MCM  Only 42% of 70 MCM (30 MCM) is collected in networks  Around half of the collected (15 MCM) is discharged into wadi and treated inside the Green Line: , , Nablus west, , Ramallah, and  Only 2 MCM is treated in Al Bireh WWTP  Around 13 MCM WW is discharged into Wadis (, Bethlehem, Nablus East) 4.1 Situation of Wastewater in the Urban Area (1996-2012) There are collection networks in the main cities (ranges from 57% in Salfit to 98.7% in Qalqilya) remaining population uses cesspits and septics, the Table 4.4 is show the wastewater status in Main Cities and Table 4.2 shows existing wastewater treatment plants in urban area.

4.3 Situation of Wastewater in Rural (1996-2012) In rural and peri-urban communities that represent more than 60 per cent of the total population there is no clear approach for sanitation development, and there is a big controversial on whether using centralized or decentralized system, where centralized system facing another challenge of low population densities in these areas, and decentralized system still need many studies to check its efficiency.

 1.43 Million in 446 community without any Wastewater network. Using Cesspits or septic and discharge into open areas (wadis)  Only 16 communities( 88.2 thousands) with wastewater network covers more than 70%

 Only in 13 communities (60.9 thousands) with wastewater network covers between 40% and 70%  Only 6 communities (22.8 thousands )with wastewater network covers less than 40%

 Around 400 locations for vacuum tankers for discharging ww  Estimated wastewater collected in cesspits around 40 MCM The Table 4.4 show the Existing Small Scale Treatment Plant-Sample in Rural and Table 4.5 is show the No. of Existing On-site (Household level) Treatment plants.

The Occupied Palestinian Territories are facing a rapid population growth against a context of limited water-resources and poor wastewater management. Most Palestinian households are internally equipped with proper sanitation facilities (plumbed toilets, sinks, drains, etc.), but lack means for proper collection and discharge. Only around 25 percent of Palestinian households (35 per cent of the total population) are served by central sewerage systems, and a further 17 per cent of the collected municipal wastewater (from 6 per cent of the population) is partially treated. The high percentage of unserved areas and lack of treatment plants cause an over-reliance on traditional on-site systems for wastewater disposal, mainly cesspits and septic tanks.

Traditionally, each household has a cesspit for the collection of excreta, which often percolates into the surrounding soil. This is a disposal system fraught with disadvantages, since it jeopardizes groundwater and the. In addition, when the surrounding soil becomes saturated, cesspits require frequent emptying using expensive private vacuum tanks, where the tanker operators who empty the cesspits often do not follow rules and regulations and discharge the emptied seepage within the surroundings of the communities, especially in agricultural areas and open fields.

67

4.4 Investments and Progress in Sanitation Sector The PWA is working to development the sanitation sector in Palestine by construction and rehabilitation the sewer network and sewer pump station, and by construction the WWTP. Table is showing the currently work in wastewater projects

 Start Implementation: Not Yet

 Status: Obstacles: Not Funded yet Despite all what have been done, still huge efforts are needed to properly manage the wastewater in Palestine.

4.5 Deficiencies and Problems Palestinian Water Authority (PWA) is the main responsible for developing the sanitation sector; PWA has an approach to provide urban areas by

72 centralized systems, but this face some challenges which are:

Challenges 1: Water Supply Priorities  Providing drinking water systems takes the priority where still more than 220 thousands in around 220 communities without networks.

Challenges 2: Fund Limited funding which is a major obstacle for the development and maintenance of wastewater services. Current wastewater treatment facilities are heavily overloaded, have inadequate maintenance and are of low cost recovery.  Raising huge amount of fund to improve WW sector services more

than billion US Dollar are needed.  Donor regulations.  Limitation of fund and donor regulations and requirements.  Unsustainability & stability of External Donation: Donor funds only

to have sustainable & sanitation infrastructures, PWA policy and strategies should carefully considers the affordability of beneficiaries to pay for this service.

Challenges 3: Occupation Some side effects of the Israeli occupation hinder the construction of wastewater projects by . The last 10 years, The Palestinians allocated 250Millin USD for WWT projects but the Israelis stopped us by one way or another.

 Israeli conditions through JWC and Civil administration that affect, postpones, stop projects for unreasonable aspects.

73

 Connection of illegal effluent to Palestinian Sewerage Systems.

 Specifications and standers of effluents and treated WW imposed by Israelis.  Security aspects.  Israeli Colonies effects on the Environment:

 Israel is controlling the Palestinians for 40 years but they did nothing to protect the environment.  Israel moved most of internationally forbidden industries to the West Bank and disposes all toxic effluents into Palestinian land

without treatment.  95% of the industry in the Israeli settlements is considered toxic & dangerous industries.  Total effluent sewage discharged to the Wadis by Israeli

Settlements is around 50 MCM.  Palestinian Agricultural lands around the settlements were destroyed by untreated effluent.

Challenges 4: Selection of appropriate treatment systems and technologies  That leads to WW management driving forces and treatment technologies that achieve specific criteria by utilizing all type of technologies that help to minimize the running cost, example:

produce gas CH4, incineration of sludge and available solid waste.

74

Challenge 5: Upgrading of the West Bank old urban sewage works  Odor nuisance:

 Overloaded pond systems.  Misconception in design.  Land availability:  No space for extension.

Challenge 6: Final effluent disposal:  Reuse in agriculture: where, this was one of the main target of Master Plan started in 1996.  Treated WW recycling and reuse is considered a very important

option for generating additional water resources to replace fresh water used for agricultural and industrial purposes.  Artificial Recharge through Disposal final effluent in Wads: environmental impact; compliance with political agreements.

 Final effluent Reuse (selecting the appropriate crops and encourage farmers to reuse the effluent).

Challenge 7: Enforcement of policy and laws:  PWA policy: Based on ―Polluter Pays Principle‖ and envisages a

full cost recovery based on affordability basis, water-tariff models should be developed to assure cost recovery.  Palestinian Water Law: Set of regulations and rules entailing pollution fees for environmental pollution handlings.

Challenge 8: Capacity building:  Building and maintaining a core staff for managing and regulating

75

 the wastewater projects: review of documents and formulation of future plans.

 Prepare for all training and capacity building program that required to support sustainable operation of the WWTP, and to achieve value from reuse of the treated wastewater.

Challenge 9: On the technical and Institutional levels, still some obstacles  Lack of technical Experience in Design, operate and maintain WWTP  Un-defined Wastewater Reuse Strategy

 Weakness of the institutions to run WW project due to:  Lack of qualified staff  Lack of financial resources  Lack of practical experience

 Lack of Institutional management body and cost recovery (affordability and sustainability).

Challenge 10: Absence of Public & Educational Awareness Strategy  Institutional level

 Operators level  Farmers level

4.6 Driving Forces for WW Management  Public health risks: waterborne diseases

83 Chapter 5 Criteria Idntification

This chapter aims to define criteria that affect the sanitation sector, which will be done through the following: A. Identify the criteria used in some countries. B. Stakeholder Consultation such as institutions; organizations;

ministries; universities and municipalities. C. Identify the criteria established by the laws and strategy in Palestine; these criteria are shown in ‎0 and ‎0. D. Questionnaire for citizens.

E. EQA Terms of Reference (TOR) on sanitation projects. F. Determine the criteria followed by donors in the projects.

5.1 Criteria Used in Some Countries 5.1.1 Egypt National Rural Sanitation Strategy was released in September 2008 is talking about unserved areas has developed a program called (Diversion Program).

The Diversion Program concept makes pollution abatement the first priority in this strategy. Therefore all the municipal sewage, seepage flows, and solid wastes of each Sanitation Service Cluster (SSC) should be directed to a central Integrated Treatment Facility (ITF), thus eliminating (―diverting‖) unsanitary habits of discharging liquid and solid wastes to canals and drains in the service area. SSC treatment and conveyance facilities are planned on the basis of an SSC’s flow composition.

84

The Diversion Program would be implemented in two stages. The first stage would involve three types of investments: a) Construction of a ―first-stage‖ fecal sludge/seepage treatment facility (plus a solid waste management "SWM" facility) in each SSC b) Reorganization (and where necessary, purchase or contracting) of SSC seepage evacuation truck services, ensuring conveyance of all septic wastes to the treatment facility c) Construction of pumping stations and force mains to convey wastewater from existing gravity sewered areas (and selected on-site systems) to the SSC.

Ministry of Housing, Utilities, and Urban Development (MHUUD) would undertake, through Holding Company for Water and Wastewater (HCWW) and its affiliated companies and National Organization for Potable Water and Sanitary Drainage (NOPWASD), all responsibilities of liquid wastes; while Ministry of Local Development (MLD) would undertake all responsibilities of solid wastes, through governorates and rural local units. The second stage of the Diversion Program involves the completion of full wastewater treatment trains in SSCs and planning and implementation of appropriate sewerage interventions in unsewered villages or clusters of villages. Criteria for village and community prioritization might include:  Subsurface water level  Population size and density

 Water consumption levels  Ability and willingness to participate.

85

This prioritization scheme recognizes that high water table poses a serious public health and building risk in many villages. But the treatment facilities have the absolute priority and must be set in place first, and when funds become available, some sewerage projects can be introduced in parallel with ITF construction.

5.1.2 Iraq Through my work in (Samawa Al-Soub Al-Saghir Sewerage and Stormwater Systems Design in Iraq) there are lists of possible environmental impacts will be analyzed selected from General directorate of Sewage in Ministry of Municipalities &Public Works (MMPW):

 The topography of the study area and flat plains.  The selected site for the planned STP and its relation with the flood plan.  The geological formations of the project area.

 The surface runoff and storm water runoff originating from urban and rural areas.  Land use classifications within the study area and long-term planning

policies envisaged. The present main land uses within the study area

are residential, agricultural and commercial with no large industrial enterprises.  Rain-fed and irrigated agricultural practices in the area with prevailing crop patterns (vegetables, fruit trees and field crops).

 The current main roads in the study area within the urban and rural areas.

86

 Soil investigations will be made. The natural biotic life of the study area shows no sensitive habitats with insignificant biodiversity

relevance. A detailed EIA study shall investigate the soil type, flora and fauna dominating in the study area. Site Identification: The sites shall be studied carefully based on the following site selection criteria:

 Distance from the Urban Area Limits and the surrounding residential areas.  Distance between effluent discharge point and reuse option.  Prevailing wind directions.

 Topography of the project area.  Effluent discharge.  Sites accessibility.

5.1.3 Libya The criteria presented in the following sections are provided as the standard basis for all projects prepared for the Libya Housing and Infrastructure Board (HIB). These criteria are mention in Guidance Document, Revision

No. 01 in 21 August 2008, Libya Housing and Infrastructure Board (HIB).

These criteria are:  Population and growth projections.  Sewage flow generation.  Sewage loadings.

 Reusing wastewater.  Ground water.

87

 Solve an immediate environmental problem.  Solve the problem of the dumping of waste water into the sea

(coastal areas).

5.1.4 South Africa There are a lot of factors shared between Palestine and South Africa, the most important of the scarcity of water and lack of sanitation systems only in major cities. In 1994 approved to (NATIONAL SANITATION POLICY). The most important reportedly in the National Sanitation Policy in to identifying the priorities of sanitation sector is:

 The proposed system affordable to the user, the service supplier and the government.  Number of people will be served compared to the cost of the project  The risks to the environment

 Acceptable to people (bearing in mind the cost to them)  Water supply, Is it adequate? Can it support the proposed sanitation system?

Also the National Sanitation Policy stipulates the following:

 The design of sanitation improvement projects will ensure that the environmental consequences are adequately considered during the planning process. The risk of pollution through different sanitation approaches will be assessed in order to use the option which will

minimise impacts on the environment in the most cost effective way. The Integrated Environmental Management (IEM) Guidelines have

88

been prepared on what level of impact assessment to use for different types of projects.

 Where it is envisaged that a significant environmental change may result, public awareness and participation is essential. Information must be presented in an even handed manner in order to convey the potential costs and trade-offs. For example, comparison of the costs

of avoiding pollution with those of treating the pollution after it has happened should be accompanied by an explanation of the receiving water quality objectives.  Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) procedures should be

followed during the design and sitting of waste water treatment works and waste disposal sites. As the degree of complexity may vary according to the anticipated risk, appropriate risk assessment procedures need to be developed.

5.2 Stakeholder Consultation Several consultative interviews were conducted with stakeholders in the sanitation sector such as institutions; organizations; ministries; universities and municipalities to identify the issues and concerns to be taken into consideration during the criteria-setting. The consulted parties, and feedback, comments, and concerns are listed below.

5.2.1 Consultation with Palestinian Ministries Several consultative interviews were conducted with the Palestinian

Ministries and Authorities. These included Ministry of Agriculture (MoA), Palestinian Water Authority (PWA), Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities

89

(MoTA), Environmental Quality Authority (EQA) ), Ministry of Local Governments (MoLG), and Ministry of Labor (MoL).

5.2.1.1 Ministry of Agriculture (MoA) On November 22, 2012, Eng. Thaer Al- Rabi from MoA was interviewed and he indicated the following: • The Ministry supports the establishment of a sewage networks and

treatment plants in the west bank and they have no objection about any projects unless inconsistent with the requirements of the Ministry. • MoA supports of the re-use of treated wastewater to irrigate crops

only if the farmers will follow the instructions of the ministry, also they have some concerns about this matter because of the lack of staff to control this process. • The Agricultural Sector Strategy within the Palestinian National

Strategy (PNP) 2011-2013 emphasizes finding alternative sources for water (treated wastewater). However, there are regulatory instructions for using treated wastewater for agricultural purposes.

• The Palestinian Standard, PS 742, of Palestinian Standards Institute

(PSI) regulates and permits use of treated wastewater on fodder and tree crops only. • The ministry opposes cutting down fully protected trees, while for the rest of the trees if there is no alternative site for the station they

will have no objection of removing and re-planting them to another land, but only under the competent authorities supervision.

90

• Application must be submitted to the Ministry of Agriculture for the use of agricultural lands for other purposes to be reviewed by a

specialized committee at MoA. • He mentioned that the sewage projects are expected to contribute to increase the agricultural production. • He emphasized that the awareness level must be raised among the

citizens through the distribution of booklets and conducting seminars about precautions and concerns of dealing with treated waste water. • For crops irrigated with treated wastewater there is no problem in changing patterns of agriculture in the region but only according to

the nature of the land and within the instruction of the ministry taking into consideration that the farmer always seeks to increase his agricultural production with higher benefit. • There are mandatory instructions from the Ministry of Agriculture

about re-using the treated wastewater for all beneficiaries. • Regarding using treated sludge as compost in agriculture, Palestinians have no such experience. Sludge should preferably be

transferred to sanitary landfills. Main problem of sludge is the

accumulated heavy metals and chemicals rather than the organic matter. He mentioned that the select criteria should be sensitive to the following: capability to re-use of treated wastewater, nature of the agricultural lands and patterns of agriculture in the region, agricultural production.

91

5.2.1.2 Palestinian Water Authority (PWA) On November 26, 2012, Eng. Adel Yaseen was interviewed from PWA and he indicated the following: • He expressed his concerns about the need for permits from the Israeli side and difficulties to obtain them and also about farmers to accept the possibility of reusing of treated wastewater. Also how to dispose

the treated wastewater at the time of emergency and in case of problems in the operation. • He emphasized the point that the PWA rejects to link settlements with any treatment plant.

• Treated water will help to reduce the demand of drinking water used in agriculture, and will provide additional water to increase agricultural production. • PWA does not mind the use of treated wastewater in groundwater

recharge in the event of the treated wastewater reached to the level of quality permitted for use in the recharge of groundwater. • Mechanism for addressing contingencies and emergencies must be

clarified, especially in regards to potential contamination to

groundwater resources. • Odors and proximity to residential areas are concerns, especially in an area that is relatively very warm in summer. Wind direction with regard to the WWTP location from residential areas must also be

considered.

92

He mentioned that the select criteria should be sensitive to the following: Water consumption, hydrogeological profile as well as water slopes and vulnerability.

5.2.1.3 Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities (MoTA) On November 14, 2012, Mr. Awni Shawamre was interviewed and indicated the following:

• Must protect archaeological and historical sites • It is the responsibility of the MoTA to scan the area and conduct a field survey and facilitate in the assessment activities.

5.2.1.4 Environmental Quality Authority (EQA) On October 30, 2012, Eng. Amjad Al Kharraz from EQA was interviewed and he indicated the following; • EQA supports such projects if they were built on scientific and environmental basis.

• EQA started to support projects of sewage networks and treatment plants in general in the West Bank because it is environmental friendly.

• EQA has no objection of re-using treated water to irrigate crops, but

after following the Palestinian standard of water treatment in irrigation some crops but not all of them can be irrigated by treated wastewater, and also forest trees of various types within the instructions of the Ministry of Agriculture.

• Regarding to solid waste that result from the process water treatment solids (sludge) he has pointed out that at present there is only one

93

solution to the EQA which is to send the sludge to certified landfill after treatment because there is no of a Palestinian standard for re-

using it. • Awareness programs should be conducted for the farmers with emphasis on limited use of treated water for irrigation certain and the types of crops that to be irrigated by the treated wastewater

according Ministry of Agriculture. • MoA opposes changing agricultural patterns in the Palestinian areas randomly without a sustainable strategy in this regard. • Alternatives should be studied in detail whether the site or the

technology used in the station and there must be an integrated plan for the reuse of treated water. • Several actions must be considered during the excavation and construction process to preserve the environment during the

establishment of the sewer network in coordination with the targeted municipalities. He mentioned that the selected criteria should be sensitive to the environmental issues.

5.2.1.5 Ministry of Local Governments (MoLG) Based on previous conversations with Mr. Suleiman Abu Mfarreh, he emphasizes the following points: • Wastewater treatment and reuse is becoming a national priority.

• MoLG maintained that the project must be compatible with the existing and future land uses. In addition, it should take into account

94

the political land classifications: Areas A, B, and C (Area A: Under full Palestinian civil and military control. Area B: Under Palestinian

civil control and Israeli military control. : Under full Israeli civil and military control).

5.2.1.6 Ministry of Labor (MoL) Based on previous conversations with Mr. Iyham Nsoor, he emphasizes the following points: • The sanitation projects would result in job creation at different levels through construction and operation. • The projects should comply with the Palestinian Labor Law No. 7

adopted in 2000. The Law provides regulations for workers' health and safety measures, safe and healthy work conditions, life insurance, accident insurance, working hours, and wage rates. • Safety measures should be provided.

5.2.2 Consultation with Universities Consultative interviews were conducted to Water and Environmental Studies Institute (WESI) at An-Najah National University (ANU). The

Water and Environmental Studies Institute (WESI) at An-Najah National

University (ANU) was established in June 2001, as a result of upgrading Water and Environmental Studies Center founded in 1994. The main objective of WESI is to serve the Palestinian community's needs in terms of studying, monitoring, describing, controlling, and following up all issues and aspects related to the present and future state of water and environment in Palestine.

95

Through multiple meetings with Dr. Prof. Marwan Haddad as my thesis supervisor, and Associate Professor and Director, Water & Environmental

Studies Institute (WESI), he indicated to we should look at the following criteria: Ground water, Amount of water consumption, Availability of agricultural land, Collection rate for electricity and water bills, Pricing of water, Reuse, Geographical location, Agricultural pattern, Citizens to accept the use of treated water in agriculture, Water availability, The existence and condition of water networks and coverage ratio, Political Constrains, Environmental sensitivity, Social problems, Service Provider (Municipality, Village Council, the Council of shared services, ....) and preparations for such a project, Religious, tourist, and archaeological areas, Water Resources, an Industrial activities and olive presses.

5.2.3 Consultation with NGOs Consultative interviews were conducted with the House of Water and

Environment (HWE). The House of Water and Environment (HWE) is a Palestinian not-for-profit NGO that was established in the year 2004. HWE aims to promote practical research into the current and future state of water resources and the environment in Palestine and across the region.

On January 26, 2013, Eng. Abdelhamid Alshami (Research Associate - Water and Environmental engineer) was interviewed from HWE and he indicated the following: According to HWE experience in wastewater sector, to identify the area we should look at the following (start from the most important factor):

96

1- In general, the areas that has open wastewater streams must have the most priority because they have highly significant negative impact

on environment in addition to health and social impacts if these streams flow through or near the built-up area (like salfeet wastewater and Wadi Al zomar). 2- Vulnerability or Sensitivity of ground water.

3- Existing of agricultural lands that suffer from water shortage. 4- Existing of notable health problems due to the cesspits (if there are reports assure that). 5- Population number.

For selecting the location of the WWTP, we should look at the following criteria (start from the most important factor): 1- Distance to built-up area and future extension, which reflect on residents health and their satisfaction.

2- Vulnerability or Sensitivity of ground water. 3- Existing of suitable reuse site. 4- Political Constrains, A, B, C.

5- Suitability of land (flat land or suitable slope).

6- Flood Risk. 7- Land ownership.

5.2.4 Consultation with Private sector Consultative interviews were conducted to private sector (Companies that have worked in the field of consulting, studies, designs and supervision in

97 the sanitation sector) like Universal Group for Engineering & Consulting (UG) and Center for Engineering and Planning (CEP).

5.2.4.1 Universal Group for Engineering & Consulting (UG) Universal Group for Engineering and Consulting (UG) was established in 1993 as a unique Palestinian firm with the intention to face the challenges for the reconstruction and development of the Palestinian territories after more than 28 years of occupation and the resulting deterioration of the infrastructure, through offering its state-of-the art engineering and technical services. UG is currently developing a 21st century consulting business on the basis of a decade of engineering excellence.

UG has committed itself to high quality engineering and consulting services with the contribution of its experienced professionals and highly qualified and specialized experts. Since 1993, UG has grown into a recognized leader in the consulting business in the Palestinian territories.

During this period, Universal Group for Engineering and Consulting has become a leading multi disciplined firm known and respected for its work and services in the planning, design, supervision, and management in the various fields of architecture, engineering, and infrastructure.

Universal Group for Engineering and Consulting is registered as a first grade consulting firm with the Engineers Association in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The Universal Group for Engineering and Consulting co- operates with a number of leading regional and international consulting firms.

98

On February 28, 2013, Dr. Hafez Shaheen (Associate Professor in An- Najah National University and Water and Environmental Expert

(Backstopping) in UG) was interviewed and he indicated that the following factors must be taken into account: demography, wastewater production, environmental factor, Socio-economic factor, geographical factor (topography, catchment), investment factor.

5.2.4.2 Center for Engineering and Planning (CEP) Since its establishment in 1984, CEP has been involved in a large number of projects both in Palestine’s Inland Region (West Bank) and Coastal Region (Gaza Strip) and in other countries such as Iraq, United Arab

Emirates (UAE) and Libya, in the areas of town and regional planning, socio-economic studies, housing, architecture and building engineering, road and traffic engineering, water supply and distribution, sewage collection, treatment and reuse, stormwater collection and drainage systems, irrigation systems, industrial development projects and the development of teaching and laboratory programs for academic and technical institutions.

The professional services offered by CEP in these areas include preliminary investigations and comprehensive research, field studies and reports, performance evaluation studies, engineering and economic feasibility studies, master planning, preliminary and detailed engineering designs for buildings and infrastructure projects, the preparation of tender documentation and the provision of construction management/quality assurance services during project construction and operation.

99

In the area of infrastructure development, CEP has been actively involved in the preparation of assessment and feasibility studies, master plans for roads, water supply and distribution, sewage collection, treatment and reuse, storm water drainage and environmental impact assessments. In the course of these activities CEP’s staff has become very familiar with the operational modalities of Palestinian municipalities and village councils and has accumulated a wealth of information and data relating to the physical, institutional, regulatory and legal aspects of infrastructure planning and development. On February 20, 2013, Eng. Shireen Shelleh (Manager, Design and

Studies) and Eng. Bassam Abu-Zahra (Environmental, Water, and Wastewater Engineer) were interviewed and he indicated that the following criteria must be taken into account: population forecast, wastewater generation, vulnerability of ground water, reuse and agricultural lands, and political constrains (A, B, C).

5.2.5 Consultation with Municipalities Consultative interviews were conducted to municipalities (Specifically large municipalities where there are sewer systems and has extensive experience in the sanitation sector) like Nablus and Ramallah municipality.

5.2.5.1 Nablus Municipality Nablus Municipality is a public institution with specific by-laws and systems enacted in order to render the best quality of municipal services to its local citizens. Nablus (177,000 inhabitants including 4 refugee camps) is the biggest urban centre of the northern West Bank. Nablus Municipality is

100 currently implementing a western WWTP where serve around 150,000 people in 2020, and municipality is finish of the preparation of a feasibility study for the establishment of eastern WWTP. On January 02, 2013, Eng. Emad El Masri (Director of water and sanitation department in the municipality) was interviewed and he indicated that the requirements of implementing sanitation projects must be taken into account the following: Land for the WWTP, Fund for the capital cost, Agricultural land for reuse, Operation body, Approvals and permits, Population density, Wastewater production.

5.2.5.2 Ramallah Municipality Ramallah Municipality is a public institution with specific by-laws and systems enacted in order to render the best quality of municipal services to its local citizens. Ramallah (36,000 inhabitants) It currently serves as the de facto administrative capital of the Palestinian National Authority. The existing sewerage situation in Ramallah is:  Only around 65% of the urban area is connected to the sewerage system.

 Many cesspits cause flooding with related odour and hygiene

problems in developed but unconnected areas (especially Al Tireh).  Sewerage system should be a separate system, but some illegal connections of roof gutters increase flows during rainfalls.  Industrial wastewater is not pre-treated and thus affects the

functionality of the WWTP (especially textile industries using colorants) and sludge & treated wastewater re-use.

101

 Overload of the existing WWTP, both in quantities and pollution loads.

 Effluents do not meet the Palestinian discharge standards.  Very limited extension possibilities for the existing WWTP.  WWTP very close to the city (in close vicinity to the industrial area).  Network likely to be undersized: DN 100 house connections at an

estimated rate of 80%, and maximum diameter in the network being DN 300 (12‖).  Ramallah Municipality is currently seeking to establish a treatment plant in Ein Jariot area funded by KFW.

On January 29, 2013, Eng. Khaled Ghazal (Director of sanitation department in the municipality) was interviewed and he indicated that the requirements of implementing sanitation projects must be taken into account the following:

 Demography (Population, No of Buildings, Average income).  Environmental risk (water borne disease, no of polluted springs, no of polluted wells, No of Cesspits).

 Land availability (Land for TP, Land for Future Expansion, Location

of TP, and Price of the land).  Technical implementation (Topography (Connection by Gravity), Needs for pumping, coverage of wastewater in the first phase).  Risk of industrial Waste (No. of Olive press, No. of Stone cutting

(Quarries)).

102

 Institutional Management (No. of employees, No. of technical staff, financial stability, collection rate, cost of evacuation, cost of water,

5.3 Citizens Questionnaire A questionnaire was developed for citizens in their capacity as the affected side of the sanitation. By conducting an interview with citizens, one can deduce a number of criteria that must be taken into account.

The questionnaire was well-developed to cover all aspects in relation to the water sector and wastewater sector. The questionnaire and sample size were audited by Dr. Numan Mizyed (Associate Professor, An-Najah National University (ANU)).

The questionnaire consisted of a number of topics; these are: water situation, current status of sanitation and citizens' satisfaction, impact of wastewater on citizens, economic and social aspects, institutional issues, and decision-making. See citizen’s questionnaire in Annex A.

5.3.1 Sample Size Respondents for the questionnaire were selected randomly. The sample size included different certain categories, e.g. gender, income level, educational level, etc.

The alpha level used in determining sample size in most educational research studies was either 0.05 or 0.01 (Ary, Jacobs, & Razavieh, 1996).

103

The alpha level was taken as 0.05 for sample size above 120 and as 0.01 for smaller populations less than 120 (Bartlett, Kotrlik, & Higgins, 2001).

T-value for alpha level of 0.05 was 1.96, so confidence level was 90%. The sample was chosen to give a 90% confidence level with a confidence interval of 5%. The required sample size was calculated according to the Kachigan formula:

Where: SS: Sample Size. Z: value (1.69 for 9AYo confidence level) proportion of area under the normal curve above the indicated values of Z. P: Percentage of picking a choice expressed as decimal (0.5) E: Confidence interval, expressed as decimal or maximum effort for a given confidence level (0.05)

By substituting in the above equation:

The above equation is for an infinite population. For a finite population, a correction factor was applied according to the following.

Where:

Pop. is the population. Here, the number of families was used as a population, since each questionnaire represented one family.

104

The number of families in the selected communities (see CHAPTER‎ 7) is shown in Table 5.1.

5.3.2 Analysis of the Questionnaire This section presents the results of the questionnaire and the main findings of its analysis. The results were analyzed as per the different parts of the questionnaire as follows: 1. Water Situation

2. Current status of sanitation and citizens' satisfaction

3. Impact of wastewater on citizens 4. Economic and social aspects 5. Citizens' awareness, and awareness campaigns 6. Institutional issues

7. Decision-making

107

5.3.2.1 First Topic: Water Situation The amount of water consumption in the summer is 80 liters for each person per day and 73 per day in the winter. The questionnaire showed about 65% of people think the amount of water available for all uses is not sufficient while only 45% think it is sufficient. According to the views of respondents, there is a large deficit in the amount of water needed for agriculture more than the amount of water needed for Industrial and Commercial sectors, while there is no significant shortfall in domestic water. The questionnaire also showed that there is a small number of people satisfied with the water services provided to them with a rate not exceeding 15%.

5.3.2.2 Second Topic: Current status of sanitation and citizens' satisfaction All respondents explained that they use cesspits for the disposal of wastewater rather than using sewage systems, and they are not provided with any services related to sanitation issues. The Figure 5.1 shows the kind of censorship of wastewater disposal based on the opinion of the interviewees.

5.3.2.4 Fourth Topic: Economic and social aspects As far as economic and social aspects are concerned, 97% of the respondents explained that there are no debts they accumulated as a result of providing them with water and wastewater disposal services. 52% indicated that they were satisfied with the price of water, compared to 46% in addition to 2% who did not answer the question. About 78% believed that sanitation projects would ease the financial burden resulting from the disposal of wastewater. Moreover, 68% of the respondents believed that the wastewater and wastewater disposal cause social problems among citizens.

110

5.3.2.5 Fifth Topic: citizens' awareness, and awareness campaigns Almost 4% of the respondents said that they attended seminars or lectures on wastewater while the rate of respondents who attended documentary films or TV ads on wastewater problems and methods of treatment was about 73%, and the rate of respondents to whom leaflets or posters about wastewater and wastewater problems were distributed was about 22%.

5.3.2.6 Sixth Topic: Institutional issues A survey showed lack of knowledge on the part of citizens of whether or not there is an overlap in functions and positions in government institutions as almost 78% did not answer the question while the rate rose to reach 86% of our questions that were answered regarding whether or not there is an overlap in the tasks and functions between government institutions and civil society organizations (NGO's). Figure 5.4 shows the opinion of citizens in attention to the wastewater sector by government institutions and civil society organizations (NGO's).

5.4 EQA Terms of Reference (TOR) Terms of reference (TOR) prepared by EQA were taken into account in order to be considered during the work of environmental impact assessment. This EIA is subject to the review and approval by several local agencies, such as the EQA, PWA, and MoLG in order to ensure

113 environmental compliance prior to project commencement and during project implementation.

The EQA has determined that a detailed EIA study is required for all wastewater collection and treatment systems. The EQA provides guidance on the content and preparation of the EIA (We take Al-Yamun project for example) as specified in the Terms of Reference (TOR) presented in Annex B

5.5 Selected Criteria Used in the Sanitation Projects (donors criteria) The aim of this section is to review the selected criteria used in the sanitation projects. Criteria used in the projects are normally within the orientations of the donors and the approval of relevant government ministries. The methods for determining the priorities in sanitation sector in the ministries and relevant institutions are according to the donors’ police. There is no clear vision of how to identify priorities in sanitation sector in the government ministries. The following section shows the criteria used in the various projects funded by United States Agency for International Development (USAID),

European Union (EU), German Bank for Reconstruction (KFW), Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) Republic of Finland and Local finance investment projects.

5.5.1 Wastewater Projects for USAID Funding The United States Agency for International Development (USAID) West

Bank and Gaza is considering wastewater sector investments in the West Bank. USAID wishes to understand the feasibility of funding wastewater

114 sector projects by identifying potential projects and evaluating their associated scopes, sustainability, permitting requirements, beneficiaries, costs, implementation schedules, and other aspects. Inc. (MWH) was selected by USAID to Assessment of Potential West Bank Water Projects for USAID Funding, dated July 15, 2010 (Assessment). USAID has selected Black & Veatch Company to confirming the findings of the assessment and obtaining additional data in order to establish a recommendation for the immediate engagement of design efforts on two of the ten wastewater systems through the preparation of site selection report, dated February 15, 2011.

5.5.1.1 Assessment of Potential West Bank Water Projects for USAID Funding The methodology developed to proceed with this investigation consisted of the following steps:

1. Initial identification of potential projects 2. Establishment of project selection criteria 3. Development of a shortlist of projects to evaluate

4. Evaluation of shortlisted projects

5. Recommended criteria for prioritizing projects

5.5.1.1.1 Identification of Potential Projects The initial identification of potential projects began with an examination of documents produced by the Palestinian Water Authority (PWA) including their Recommended Project Lists, which is updated monthly, and the document entitled The Palestinian Water and Wastewater Sectors: Basic

115

Needs and Development Ongoing and Proposed Projects by Governorates (October, 2009). Meetings were held with both USAID and PWA to further discuss these documents. Additionally, to obtain a better understanding of wastewater projects in the West Bank, meetings were held with other organizations involved in the West Bank wastewater sector work including:

 Ministry of Local Government – Eng. Walid Halayqa  Al Bireh Municipality – Eng. Lamia Hamayel  Bir Zeit University - Dr. Omar Zimmo  KFW (German Donor Organization) – Dr. Hisham Sharabati and

Eng. Waddah Hamadalla  JICA (Japanese Donor Organization) – Dr. Abed Al-Naser

5.5.1.1.2 Establishment of project selection criteria Establish project selection criteria based on USAID’s objectives and goals for this effort. The identified project selection criteria included:  Project costs in the range of $10M to $15M USD  Projects that have a high likelihood of being successfully operated in

the future

 Projects that have a high likelihood of being approved and permitted  Projects that solve an immediate environmental problem  Projects where the treated effluent can be used as reuse water  Projects that can be coupled with USAID water projects

 Projects that are aligned with PWA’s wastewater sector goals  Projects that are not being funded by other donor agencies

116

 Projects that are spread around different areas of the West Bank The ceiling on project costs eliminated large wastewater projects, such as

Wadi Nar and Hebron City, and instead focused the search on medium- sized projects serving communities with 2010 populations of approximately 10,000 to 20,000 people.

5.5.1.1.3 Evaluation of Shortlisted Projects The shortlisted projects were evaluated with the goal of providing USAID the information needed to prioritize projects if funding becomes available. The first step in the evaluation process was to set up meetings with the authorities that would be involved in the potential projects. Meetings were setup with each municipality or joint village council and were typically attended by the mayor of the town and his key engineering and utilities staff, as well as MWH and PWA representatives. At some meetings, representatives from nearby towns also attended the meeting. The authorities were provided with a list of questions prior to the meeting so that they could be properly prepared. The information requested at each meeting included:

1. Topographic and road maps of the area

2. Population of the town, number of households, and number of buildings 3. Description of the municipality including number of employees, engineers, and technicians

4. Water resources in the town, supplied quantities, and water usage rates

117

5. Internal water network situation and its coverage area 6. Cost of water supplied to citizens

7. Percentage of water bills paid and the billing mechanism 8. Number of cesspits in town 9. Cost of emptying cesspits by vacuum tankers 10. Wastewater disposal sites

11. Social and environmental problems resulting from lack of wastewater collection and treatment 12. Industrial activities in town especially stone cutting workshops and olive presses

13. Disposal mechanism of stone cutting workshops and olive pressers remnants 14. Previous studies or designs for wastewater systems 15. Status of any existing collection pipes or treatment facilities

16. Percentage of the town that could be served by a gravity collection system 17. Availability of land to construct a wastewater treatment plant

18. Types of crops grown locally and locations where reuse water could

be utilized 19. Political areas that the system would be located in (Area A, B, or C or a combination) 20. Potential initial service areas and future phasing opportunities

As a result of the meetings, it became very evident that all of the municipalities and joint village councils are extremely aware of the

118

social and environmental problems caused by uncollected and untreated wastewater and are desperate for funding for wastewater

projects. Key social and environmental issues that came up at all the meetings included: 1. Health risks to citizens, especially children, from raw sewage running in the streets and wadis

2. Contamination of springs and groundwater, formerly used for water supplies, as a result of overflowing cesspits and illegal dumping of raw sewage from tanker trucks 3. Contamination of water network piping due to overflowing

cesspits 4. Structural damage to roads and building foundations as a result of overflowing cesspits 5. Conflicts between neighbors caused by overflowing cesspits

6. Waste of a valuable resource that could be used for irrigation or other purposes

5.5.1.1.4 Recommended Criteria for Prioritizing Projects The criteria listed below, are proposed for prioritizing the projects. These criteria are based on a scoring system of 1 to 3 points. It is also recommended that a weighting system be employed to differentiate criteria deemed to be critical to the implementation and long-term success of the project including those related to unit costs, existing water consumption, sustainability, and permitting.

5.5.1.2 Site selection report USAID is to design ten sewage collection and treatment systems in medium sized communities (average current population 20,000) throughout the West Bank. Ten municipal entities in the West Bank were previously identified in a study entitled Assessment of Potential West Bank Water

Projects for USAID Funding. Prior to engaging in detailed design efforts,

B&V is tasked with confirming the findings of the Assessment and obtaining additional data in order to establish a recommendation for the immediate engagement of design efforts on two of the ten wastewater systems.

B&V and local sub-consultants worked with Palestinian Water Authority (PWA) staff, Ministry of Agriculture staff, the Israeli Civil Administration,

122 and the mayors and engineers of the ten municipalities to analyze the circumstances of each proposed system. Comparisons of factors affecting project implementation were made, some of which relied on information presented by the municipalities themselves, others drawn from observations and investigations made directly by B&V professionals and sub- consultants. Where possible, the information reported by each of the ten municipalities was cross checked with data from other sources such as Palestinian Authority 2007 Population Census Data and PWA well production data. The purpose of this report is to prioritize two wastewater systems for immediate design. A criteria based ranking system was used to score all ten systems with recommendations for immediate design implementation going to the top two. The evaluation and scoring is only intended for the purpose of identifying two systems for immediate design implementation. The evaluation and scoring is not intended as a prioritization list for all ten projects. Nor are the criteria or ranking applicable to identifying the next stage of construction prioritization after the first one is designed and constructed.

Four criteria were developed for the evaluation. Where appropriate, the criteria were further divided into sub‐criteria. A numerical scoring system was developed to determine the overall ranking and identification of the top two projects for immediate implementation. Each of the four criteria were weighted and combined into a final qualitative scoring. The four criteria, in no particular order, are:

123

1. Ease of Civil Administration Approval 2. Operational simplicity

3. Environmental and Health Impacts 4. Municipal readiness Each criterion was given a weight of 25 percent.

5.5.1.2.1 Criteria 1: Civil Administration Permitting The duration of the Civil Administration’s permit approval process will drive the schedule of project implementation for those systems that impact Area C. This can have an overriding impact on the selection of the wastewater system that is slated for immediate implementation. At a minimum, each project consists of the following geographical elements which will be located in two or more of the security/administrative areas (A, B, or C):

The geographical location of each of these permanent features will affect the relative ease of implementation by the impact they have on Area C. In coordination meetings with B&V, the Civil Administration has indicated that projects that impact Area A and B only can get implemented much faster than those that impact Area C. The Civil Administration also distinguishes between types of construction in Area C. According to the

124

Civil Administration, approval for construction of buried pipelines in Area C is significantly shorter (approximately six months) and a less complicated than permanent, above‐ground structures (approximately three years). Some Area C approvals may take a shorter time than anticipated. Other Area C approvals may take significantly longer. In any case, the exact duration is unknowable in advance and projects that impact Area C are relatively risky for immediate project implementation. However, it should be recognized that site specific issues affecting Israeli interests are expected to have an impact on the duration of the permit approval process. For example, the proposed wastewater systems may be impacted by the proximity of Area C settlements. Environmental improvements resulting from the implementation of proposed projects may also factor into the duration of permit approvals. One example of this is the proposed Ein Sinya wastewater treatment plant. The Civil Administration has reportedly encouraged the development of this project by offering financial incentives to the Palestinians to build a wastewater plant. The existence of such a plant would improve the environmental conditions of nearby Israeli settlements.

For the purposes of this analysis, the following numerical scoring system was applied:

125 Table 5.3: Numerical Scoring Description for Criteria 1 ‐ Ease of Civil Administration Approval Score Description 10 trunks, or wastewater plants;

the catchment area; 8 trunks, or wastewater plants;

6 wastewater plants; sewer (buried pipeline) crosses Area C;

4 wastewater plants; pipeline) crosses Area C;

2 Permanent above grade structures (wastewater plant or storage reservoirs) in Area C Inadequate Area A & B land for application of reuse water; No Israeli settlements in the catchment area 0

5.5.1.2.2 Criteria 2: Operational Simplicity In general, service areas with full gravity collection systems are expected to have lower operational and maintenance obligations than those requiring lift stations. The more lift stations required for a given service area, the greater the operational cost and complexity. Another operational consideration is the wastewater generation per capita.

The design parameters established in the Assessment were based on the notion that water supply and wastewater generated per capita would

126 significantly increase in the future. There is no guarantee that will be the case in the future. Moreover, the per capita generation has significant impacts on the wastewater treatment process selection. In general, the lower the wastewater per capita the more concentrated the waste and the more difficult it is to achieve reductions in effluent Nitrogen, which is currently set at 50 mg/l in the Palestinian Standards. This is also related to the operational costs of lime addition, which would be required to boost the alkalinity of the wastewater in order for the required nitrification/denitrification process to function at all. Greater operational complexity accompanies the treatment of higher concentrated wastes (low wastewater generation per capita). This operational complexity results in a lower score for immediate implementation where there is obviously a greater humanitarian need. However, this would also suggest that efforts for the municipalities with the lowest water consumption per capita (highest concentration wastes) should be prioritized on increasing their water supply and distribution prior to implementing sewage collection and treatment. In any case, for the purposes of this evaluation, the municipalities with the lowest wastewater generation per capita received lower scores on these subcriteria. For the purposes of this evaluation, both subcriteria were assumed to have equal weight. Each subcriteria carried a 12.5% impact on the final weighted score.

127 Table 5.4: Numerical Scoring Description for Subcriteria 2A – Operational Simplicity – Gravity Collection Score Description 5 100% of the municipality’s service area potentially served by a gravity collection system; 4 80% of the municipality’s service area potentially served by a gravity collection system; 3 60% of the municipality’s service area potentially served by a gravity collection system; 2 40% of the municipality’s service area potentially served by a gravity collection system; 1 20% of the municipality’s service area potentially served by a gravity collection system; 0 0% of the municipality’s service area potentially served by a gravity collection system;

5.5.1.2.3 Criteria 3: Environmental and Health Impacts None of the ten municipalities have usable collection systems, with the exception of Dura. Dura has a partial collection system that was built ten years ago. However, Dura’s partial collection system is not connected to an outfall and has no house connections. The use of cesspits (and in some cases, septic tanks) is widespread with some households using more than one cesspit. Overflow and seepage problems are common to all ten municipalities, with little distinguishable relative differences. Infiltration and groundwater contamination from the cesspits, which are unlined, is

128 also a problem common to all ten municipalities. The installation of collection systems and centralized treatment will have a direct benefit to the environment from the discontinuation of unrestricted dumping of raw sewage and the cessation of cesspit leakage. The comparative magnitude of the resulting environmental and health improvements can be estimated by the relative hydrologic vulnerability of the wastewater system locations. Projects in municipalities located in aquifer recharge areas with high infiltration rates would produce a higher benefit than those that are located in less vulnerable areas. To make this determination, B&V used hydrological vulnerability maps published by the

United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) in cooperation with the Palestinian Environmental Quality Authority from a study entitled Desk Study on the Environment in the Occupied Palestinian Territories (2003). The scoring system is showing in Table 5.6 below.

Table 5.6: Numerical Scoring Description for Criteria 3 – Environmental and Health Impacts Score Description 10 Greatest relative benefit realized by construction of collection and centralized treatment ‐ Municipal area located in a region of high hydrological vulnerability to groundwater pollution as defined by UNEP. 5 Moderate relative benefit realized by construction of collection and centralized treatment ‐ Municipal area located in a region of medium hydrological vulnerability to groundwater pollution as defined by UNEP. 0 Low relative benefit realized by construction of collection and centralized treatment ‐ Municipal area located in a region of low hydrological vulnerability to groundwater pollution as defined by UNEP.

129

Industrial waste contribution was considered as a possible sub‐criteria. However, the amount of liquid waste generated by existing industrial operations (stone cutting, olive press, textiles, etc) for all municipalities appears to be low. It is assumed that direct connection of these wastes to the collection system will not be allowed without pre‐treatment in accordance with soon‐to‐be ratified By Laws regarding sewer discharge. For this reason, the relative amounts of industrial wastes and their impact on the environment and health was not considered a differentiator in the prioritization effort.

5.5.1.2.4 Criteria 4: Municipal Readiness All municipal mayors, council members, and staff expressed a strong desire to have a wastewater collection, treatment, and reuse system. The residents of these municipalities all experience similar hardships that accompany the lack of such infrastructure. The expense of cesspit pumping, structural issues with building foundations, contamination of cistern and groundwater supplies from existing cesspits, and social conflicts resulting from the spillage of wastes from cesspits, were common to all of the municipalities visited. The problems associated with the existing situation are clear.

However, measuring the preparedness of a municipality to implement and operate a wastewater system is less clear. Developing a scoring system and ranking the ten municipal entities from one or two introductory meetings is a subjective exercise. Municipal readiness is difficult to accurately determine without having direct observation over the course of several weeks or months.

130

Nevertheless, it is clear that as things stand today, none of the municipalities is institutionally prepared to directly manage a new wastewater treatment plant and reuse scheme. There is a noticeable lack of experience and understanding of the issues associated with collection, and treatment operations in particular. To create a scoring system for these criteria, several indicators were considered, including: • The percentage of water fees collected from residents; • The willingness of municipal leaders to combine utility bills (water and sewer, and even electricity),

• The revenue currently generated between buying bulk water and sales to metered users,

• The implementation of pre‐paid utility bill programs, • Measures taken to reduce non‐payment and address water distribution losses, • The existence and willingness of agricultural associations to take part in water reuse contracts,

• The ability of municipal leaders to cooperate with one another in a

regional scheme (this applies mostly to the two regional projects: Ein Sinya and Northeast Jenin), • The experience and capacity of the municipality to operate and maintain its existing water infrastructure.

• The existing numbers and skill sets of the municipal operators and engineers.

131

The scoring system is shown in Table 5.7.below.

Table 5.7: Numerical Scoring Description for Criteria 3 – Municipal Readiness Score Description 10 Municipality has established an independently funded water/wastewater authority; 100% fee collection on existing water service; Losses in the existing water distribution system are measureable and less than 10% of the water is unaccounted for; Municipal personnel are capable and experienced in wastewater operations and maintenance There is an existing, mandated agricultural association that has produced a written commitment to purchase the treated effluent 5 Municipality has more than 80% of consumer water fee collection; Municipality has already implemented a combined bill for water/sewer on a prepaid use basis; An agricultural association exists with or without a mandate 0 Municipality will attempt to manage the wastewater system through the efforts of a fractioned joint service council without a clear leader; Municipality has less than 70% of consumer water fee collection; No existence of any significant agricultural associations

5.5.2 Wastewater Projects for European Union (EU) Funding To review the EU selected criteria used in the sanitation projects we studied last study submitted to the EU for sanitation projects, a project is (Feasibility study and ESIA for wastewater management in Tubas, Tayasir, 'Aqqaba and Al 'Aqaba), dated January 10, 2012.

5.5.3 Wastewater Projects for German Bank for Reconstruction

(KFW) Funding To review the KFW selected criteria used in the sanitation projects we studied last study submitted to the KFW for sanitation projects, a project is (Consultancy Services for the Elaboration of a Feasibility Study for the

Project ―Wastewater Treatment Plant Ramallah‖), dated March 2010. The project ―Wastewater Treatment Plant Ramallah – Feasibility Study‖ was launched by the German Government as part of the efforts undergoing to improve the living conditions of Palestinian people. This project is funded in the frame of the bilateral German-Palestinian Co-operation. The Consortium of Gauff Ingenieure with ERM and Universal Group was awarded the project; signature of the related contract was made on 19 January 2009.

134

5.5.3.1 Multi-Criteria Screening of Options Due to the sensitivity of the project area, option comparison cannot take into account economical items only. In addition, socio-economical and environmental impacts have to be roughly assessed.

5.5.3.2 Environmental Issues Environmental criteria have been introduced to compare the different locations for the WWTP. Into account has been taken: • Land size required for 2030; • Availability of land for further extensions beyond 2030; • The distance to the closest residential area;

• The connected PE until 2030; • The requirements of having main pumping stations • The groundwater vulnerability at the proposed sites; • Groundwater vulnerability of the main collector routings.

5.5.3.2.1 Socio-Economic Impact • Full Cost Recovery • O&M Cost Recovery

5.5.3.2.2 Institutional Criteria • Inter-Communal Co-operation • Joint Service Council; • Improvements in Billing

135

5.5.4 Wastewater Projects for Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) Republic of Finland Funding The last study submitted to the MFA for sanitation projects, a project is (Sanitation Study for Northwest Jerusalem Villages), dated March 2011.

5.5.4.1 Selection Criteria and Screening Initial selection criteria have been applied to the proposed options. The sorts of criteria that have been used for the initial screening process include:

 Type of Area including Oslo classification as A, B, or C

 Israeli Closure Wall  Adjacent settlements  Israeli permits

 Size of site (sufficient area available for extension?)  Access to site  Present land use

 Distance to developed areas, wind direction and effects of odor

 Approvals of Owners, PWA, JSCs and residents -use  Facilities for storage of treated wastewater  Available agricultural area for irrigation

 Options for re-use of treated wastewater of the WWTP and Treatment method

136

 Flexibility of options for future modifications  Required performance to meet the required effluent standards

 Strength of sewage  Effluent quality requirements  Ambient conditions in the project area  Sewage flows and infiltration/flows

5.5.5 Wastewater Projects for Local Finance Investment Projects Bayti real estate investment company is construction the city, Rawabi is new city in west bank and Rawabi is the biggest local finance investment projects in west bank.

The criteria cover a range of technical factors that consider site and land use issues, and community impacts including health and safety, environmental impacts, and economic impacts. Numerical ranking was applied to the selection criteria. These criteria were ranked by using a scoring range of 1 to 10, with 1 equal to the least favorable rating and 10 equal to the most favorable. These criteria are briefly described below:

5.5.5.1 Suitability of Land This criterion relates to the suitability of the site in terms of sufficient flat area available for treatment and reuse facilities (including area for future expansion); ease of construction in terms of site access, topography and slope; and the cost of the land.

5.5.5.2 Political Constraints This criterion relates to the relative ease of obtaining project approval and permits by the Joint Water Committee. If the project site is located in

137 administrative division Area A or B as defined by the Oslo Accords, project approval is typically much easier to accomplish than if the site is in

Area C.

5.5.5.3 Potential Aquifer Impacts Groundwater aquifers would be impacted negatively, resulting in a threat to public health and safety, if raw sewage were to be disposed of as a result of a failure at the wastewater treatment (e.g., either from a spill of raw sewage/seepage or from a treatment malfunction resulting in partially treated effluent discharge). This criterion was evaluated based on a vulnerability analysis. These vulnerability analyses were ranked by using a scoring range of 1 to 10 are briefly described below: 0 the negative impact on the groundwater system is EXTREME 2.5 the negative impact on the groundwater system is HIGH 5 the negative impact on the groundwater system is MODERATE

7.5 the negative impact on the groundwater system is LOW 10 the negative impact on the groundwater system is VERY LOW Vulnerability analysis ranked depending on:

 Groundwater Divide

 Springs  Wells  Wadis  Recharge Zones

 Pollution by advection: Advection is the process of the movement of pollutants with the influence of groundwater velocity in the saturated

138

zone. This is an important mechanism in the assessment of the impact of pollution on aquifers. The mechanism is also influenced

with the direction of groundwater movement.  Karst Groundwater System  Vertical movement and travel time of pollutants

5.5.5.4 Proximity of Reuse Sites This criterion relates to the availability of reuse sites within the proximity to effluent discharge at minimum pumping cost, and to the suitability of the soil for crop production.

5.5.5.5 Proximity to Existing and/or Planned Utilities This criterion relates to the relative ease of bringing in utilities, such as electricity and water, necessary for construction and operation of a treatment plant.

5.5.5.6 Flood Plain Elevation This criterion relates to potential flooding of the site during storm events. Wastewater treatment plants are usually located in low areas that could be subject to flooding. At sites within the flood plain, flood prevention measures such as realignment of the wadi channel or conveyance of flood water in a closed conduit would be necessary, significantly increasing costs. The differentiation among sites for this criterion was based on the relative difference in the width of the wadi where the proposed site is located: the narrower the site width, the higher the flooding potential.

139

5.5.5.7 Proximity to Landfill Residuals generated at wastewater treatment plants such as screenings, grit and sludge are anticipated to be disposed of in a sanitary landfill. The proximity of the wastewater treatment plant to a landfill site will affect the hauling costs.

5.5.5.8 Nuisance to Surrounding Urban Areas This criterion relates to the suitability of the site in terms of being remote from existing and future urban areas. It is preferable to locate wastewater treatment plants in non-urban areas, away from residences. Potential impacts include visibility of treatment plant facilities, obstruction of natural views, noise, odor, increased vehicular traffic, and public health and safety concerns.

5.5.5.9 Population Served This criterion relates to the number of residences and communities that can be served. The site that can serve the relatively largest number of population with reasonable length of trunk lines is preferred, as these results in the greatest benefits versus costs.

5.6 Criteria Identification The criteria were identified so that they are easy to measure and easy to evaluate and based on the above, the following criteria were selected:  Demography.  Water consumption / Wastewater production.

 Reusing wastewater.  Environmental factor.

140

 Operation body.  Risk for Industrial Waste.

 Socio-economic factor.  Geographical factor (topography, catchment).  Political Issues.

6.1 Normalize the Weights of Criteria Weights of the criteria were identified through the intergovernmental agencies that form the Environmental Assessment Committee (see Annex A):  EQA (acting as chair of the Committee)  Ministry of National Economy (MNE)

 Ministry of Local Government (MoLG)  Ministry of Transport (MoT)  Ministry of Agriculture (MoA)  Ministry of Health (MoH)

 Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities (MTA)  Ministry of Planning and Administrative Development (MoPAD)  Palestinian Water Authority (PWA)

 Palestinian Energy Authority (PEA)  Ministry of Public Works and Housing (MPWH)  Ministry of Labour (MoL)  Palestinian Civil Defence's (PCD)

 Petroleum Authority The EA Committee reviews the EA study and makes recommendations for approval or denial of the project. The weight of a criterion also comes based on the importance of 10 where

0 is not important, 5 is average importance, and 10 is very important. Each criterion weight is given a score, and then all the scores are added up. The

142 score of each attribute is divided by the total score. and equation below.

144 6.2 Carries a Value Rating for Each Criteria

Each alternative carries a value rating for each attribute. The rating of each alternative for each attribute indicates how well the alternative will perform as each attribute is considered. The criteria listed below, are proposed for prioritizing the projects. These criteria are based on a scoring system of 1 to 5 points.

6.2.1 Demography If the population grows, the priority of the establishment of a sewer project increases. Based on that, the highest number of projected population in 2030 between communities (Ph) is given the maximum demography score

(Ds) of 5. The formula for determining the demography scores (Ds) of all other communities is calculated as follows: Ds = 5 x P/ Ph, in which ―Ds‖ is the demography score, ―Ph‖ is the highest population, and ―P‖ is the projected population in 2030 of the community under consideration.

6.2.2 Water Consumption / Wastewater Production There is a positive relationship between water consumption (wastewater production) and priority of a sewer project. Scores are distributed according to water consumption as follows:  1 point: < 45L/day/cap

 2 points: 45 - 55L/day/cap  3 points: 56 - 65L/day/cap  4 points: 66 - 90L/day/cap  5 points: > 90 L/day/cap

145

6.2.3 Reusing Wastewater This criterion relates to the suitability of the soil for crop production. To make this determination, we used value agricultural land map. See Figure 6.1 published by MoA. Scores are distributed as follows:  1 points: Low-value agricultural land  3 points: Medium -value agricultural land

 5 points: High-value agricultural land

Figure 6.1: Value agricultural land

146

6.2.4 Environmental Factor Two specific impacts were taken on environmental issues. The first is hydrogeological vulnerability of groundwater to which we gave three points while the second is the presence of springs and wells in the region to which we gave two points. The installation of collection systems and centralized treatment will have a direct benefit to the environment from the discontinuation of unrestricted dumping of raw sewage and the cessation of cesspit leakage. The comparative magnitude of the resulting environmental and health improvements can be estimated by the relative hydrologic vulnerability of the wastewater system locations. Projects in communities located in aquifer recharge areas with high infiltration rates would produce a higher benefit than those that are located in less vulnerable areas. To make this determination, we used hydrological vulnerability map. See Figure 6.2 published by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) in cooperation with the Palestinian Environmental Quality Authority from a study entitled Desk Study on the Environment in the Occupied Palestinian

Territories (2002).

147

Figure 6.2: Hydrogeological vulnerability of groundwater to pollution in the West

Bank Scores are distributed as follows:  1 point: No springs and wells in the region.  2 points: One or more springs or wells in the region.  1 point: Community located in a region of low hydrological

vulnerability to groundwater pollution as defined by UNEP.  2 points: Community located in a region of medium hydrological vulnerability to groundwater pollution as defined by UNEP.  3 points: Community located in a region of high hydrological

vulnerability to groundwater pollution as defined by UNEP.

148

6.2.5 Operation Body We used MoLG and Municipal Development & Lending Fund (MDLF) ranked communities. MoLG ranked communities depend on various standards such as the size of the community and the strength of the operation body. MDLF ranked communities accept ―good management‖ practices according to 12 basics. Funds are allocated based on rank; municipalities with higher rankings will be eligible for more funding than those with lower rankings. The rankings are from A to F, with A constituting the highest possible rank. They are based on 12 criteria encompassing planning, management and financial accountability as shown in Table 6.2.

Table 6.2: Municipal ranking on the basis of performance for the municipal development program (MDP) in MDLF Rank Performance Indicator  Current Account Surplus (for 2 consecutive years) A  Unqualified External Audit  Integrated Financial Management System  Operational Account Surplus B  Fixed Assets Register  Maintenance Plan in place  Municipal Development/Investment Plan C  Financial Accounting Policies & Procedures in place  External Audit  Capital Budget (approved and executed, properly submitted t D o MoLG)  Recurrent Budget (approved and properly submitted to MoL E G) F  No Budgetary Information

Scores are distributed as follows:

149

 0.5 point: Village Council or Projects Committee  1 point: Rank of municipality is D.

MoLG  1.5 point: Rank of municipality is C.  2 point: Rank of municipality is B.  2.5 point: Rank of municipality is A.  0.5 point: Rank of municipality is F.

 1 point: Rank of municipality is E. MDLF  1.5 point: Rank of municipality is D.  2 point: Rank of municipality is C.  2.5 point: Rank of municipality is A,B.

6.2.6 Risk for Industrial Waste There is an impact of effluents from industrial operations (stone cutting, olive press, textiles, etc) on the effectiveness of the treatment plants. It is assumed that direct connection of these wastes to the collection system will not be allowed without pre-treatment, and it is something difficult to do by the municipalities. Scores are distributed as follows:  1 point: > 15 stonecutters + olive presses + textiles

 2 points: Between 10 and 15 stonecutters + olive presses + textiles

 3 points: Between 5 and 10 stonecutters + olive presses + textiles  4 points: < 5 stonecutters + olive presses + textiles  5 points: No stonecutters + olive presses + textiles

6.2.7 Socio-Economic Factor The socio-economic factor assessment process will be on the basis of, first, education which gives an indication of the community acceptance of the

150 project, and secondly how economically active the citizens are which gives an indication of the ability of citizens to pay and contribute to the costs of construction, operation and maintenance costs. Scores are distributed as follows:  0.5 point: <= 5% of the population hold a bachelor degree or higher of the total population aged 10 years and over.

 1.5 points: 5% to 10% of the population hold a bachelor degree or higher of the total population aged 10 years and over.  2.5 point: > 10% of the population hold a bachelor degree or higher of the total population aged 10 years and over.

 0.5 points: <= 30% of the population economically active of the total population aged 10 years and over.  1.5 points: 30% to 35% of the population is economically active of the total population aged 10 years and over.

 2.5 points: > 35% of the population economically active of the total population aged 10 years and over.

6.2.8 Geographical Factor (topography, catchment) The geographical factors affect the construction of sewer systems and the capital cost of sewer systems and if we need pumping station or not. Scores are distributed as follows:  0.5 point: <50% by gravity flow.  1 points: 50% to 75% by gravity flow.

 1.5 points: 75% to 95% by gravity flow.  2 points: > 95% by gravity flow.

151

 1 point: > 2 catchment areas.  2 points: 2 catchment areas.

 3 points: 1 catchment areas.

6.2.9 Political Issues The political issues of each of these permanent features will affect the relative ease of implementation by the impact they have on Area C. The joint water committee (JWC) in PWA has indicated that projects that impact Area A and B only can get implemented much faster than those that impact Area C as it is near settlements which would delay obtaining a license. Scores

are distributed to two points according to whether or not there are Israeli settlements in the catchment area and according to the political land classifications. Areas A, B, and C can be seen as follows:

 1 point: One or more Israeli settlements in the catchment area  2 points: No Israeli settlements in the catchment area.  1 points: Trunk lines and/or WWTP in Area C

 2 points: Entire project in Areas A and/or B

 3 points: Entire project in Areas A

152 Chapter 7 Priorities Settings 7.1 Identify Communities

We will take the towns whose population is over 10 thousand people in accordance with the directives of the PWA to resolve the problem of sanitation in the towns and villages with the population of over 10 thousand people by 2030. Based on the PCBS, we indicate the population numbers for all Palestinian communities (see Annex C Annex‎ C ) according to the census of 1997 and 2007. Communities that are expected to have a population of more than 10,000 people in 2030 are show in Table 7.1.

From the Table 7.1, it can be seen that there are 97 communities expected to have a population of more than 10,000 people in 2030. We except 33 communities because they contain sewage systems or in the design or implementation stages. According to PWA Strategy a sanitation sector will have been developed in 33 communities, and sanitation systems for 64 communities will have been found by 2030. The total current population of

64 communities is 846,705 and is expected to be 1,483,779 person in 2030.

The following communities are classified by governorates:

153 (11 communities): Silat al Harithiya, Al Yamun, Kafr

MCDA tools will be applied to the communities that have been selected. First, we score for each criterion to the selected communities. Secondly, we

normalize the weights of criteria and give the score for each community.

7.2.1 Carries a Value Rating for Each Criteria

By reference to the section 6.2‎ we score for each community as follows:

7.2.1.1 Demography According to (PCBS, 2007) the population and score of each community are as shown in Table 7.2.

7.4 Sensitivity and Certainty Analysis

Weights of the criteria in this research work were identified through qualitative interview with the intergovernmental agencies that form what so called the Environmental Assessment Committee. These weights were subjected to change of time and space due to various socio-economic political and developmental changes and conditions. In order to conduct sensitivity and certainty analysis of data related, a specific case, an excel program relating the assigned criteria, and priorities were developed. Program output would rearrange priorities according to the changes occurred in the assigned criteria. Figure 7.1 shows the program structure.

189 7.4.1 Program Implementation (Case Study): For the sensitivity analysis a fewer alternatives were assumed, with four main assumptions as follow: A. Political Solution Occurred: The political conflict will affect the ease of implementation of sanitation projects. Projects in areas which are classified as (A and B only can get relatively faster implementation process than those areas which classified as (C) since they are near settlements which would delay obtaining permits from the Israeli side. Occurrence of a political solution thus becomes a political factor without significance. B. An Increase in Water Consumption: There is a positive relationship between water consumption (therefore wastewater production) and the priority of a sewer project. In this alternative the assumption of an increase in water consumption was taken, by finding new water sources (wells, additional quantities from Mekerot, seawater desalination plants, brackish water desalination in Jordan Valley, etc.) then equitable distribution of water quantities between the localities, thus the water consumption /wastewater production becomes as a factor without significance. C. Capacity Building: Sanitation projects need a strong and effective operation body to manage such projects, due to the sensitivity of sanitation projects and, high capital cost, operation and maintenance costs and efforts.

In this alternative the assumption that PWA, stakeholders and donors will conduct capacity building for the municipalities benefiting from projects and find qualified staffs in municipalities to manage sanitation projects was taken. Thus this factor of operation body becomes without significance.

190 D. Control of Industrial Wastes: There is an impact of effluents from industrial operations (stone cutting, olive press, textiles, etc) on the effectiveness of the sanitation projects specifically on treatment plants. It is assumed that direct connection of these wastes to the collection system will not be allowed without a pre-treatment. In this alternative the assumption that a control of industrial wastes was obtained by enactment of laws and find mitigation measures to reduce the negative effect of industrial waste to sanitation projects. Thus this factor of risk from industrial wastes becomes without significance. The sensitivity program was run for the selected alternative criteria as listed in Annex B. Table 7.13.below shows the setting of priorities for the top ten communities.

191 Shamaliya

The sensitivity program results shows that the setting priorities for communities are changed when we changed the alternative criteria

(political solution occurred, increase in water consumption, capacity building, and control of industrial wastes). Therefore PWA and interested/related stakeholders need to expect future changes in identified priorities depending on changes in alternative criteria (See Table ).

192 Chapter 8 Conclusione and Recommendayions

8.1 Conclusions In light of the results, observations and outcomes from research, the following are the main conclusions:  The current way they are selecting target areas to sanitation projects are either based on the policies of the donor or on a non-scientific

method. So they do not take all the right criteria to make the right decision.  Research shows that almost 56% of the population suffers from problems of wastewater. The 78% believed that sanitation projects

would ease the financial burden resulting from the disposal of wastewater.  As evidenced by the research, citizens prefer to use sewage networks

to discharge wastewater and they are willing to contribute to the costs of creating sewage systems at a reasonable cost. Also, as demonstrated in the research, 8% of citizens support the use of treated wastewater in agriculture compared to 37% and 48% who

agree but with some preventive measures.  Communities that are expected to have a population of more than 10,000 people in 2030 are 97 communities. There are 33 community containing sewage systems or in the design or implementation stage.

According to PWA Strategy, a sanitation sector will have been

193

developed in 33 communities and sanitation systems to 64 communities will have been found by 2030.

 Multi-criteria decision analysis is an important tool in environmental decision-making for formalizing and addressing the problem of competing decision objectives. Characterized the MCDA undemanding and accuracy method.

 The criteria that affect the decision-making process in the sanitation sector the most are: Demography, Water consumption / Wastewater production, Reusing wastewater, Environmental factor, Operation body, Risk of Industrial Waste, Socio-economic factor, Geographical

factor, and Political Issues.  The top ten communities which most need to solve the problem of sewage, ordered according to importance, are: Dura, Silat al Harithiya, El Far'a Camp, 'Attil, Deir al Ghusun, Deir Abu Da'if,

Birqin, Meithalun, Al Yamun, Kafr Dan, and Qabatiya

8.2 Recommendations The recommendations listed herein support the future studies and address the following issues regarding the management of the sanitation sector:

 The Palestinian Water Authority should start to identify target areas to sanitation projects by taking all the right criteria to make right decision and oblige donors on it.  We recommend the Palestinian Water Authority use the MCDA

method to Identify the Setting Priorities of the Sanitation Sector in the West Bank

194

 The Palestinian Water Authority should benefit from the mathematical relationships and MCDA that have been working in

this research in order to set priorities of the sanitation sector.  The Palestinian Water Authority should start to plan to develop sanitation sectors in 33 communities and find sanitation systems to 64 communities by 2030.

 The Palestinian Water Authority should start putting a long-term plan and a five-year plan that would include serving 20 communities whose population is of more than 10 thousand people every 5 years.  The Palestinian Water Authority should start preparing feasibility

studies and master plans that contain estimated costs to the communities whose population is more than 10 thousand people and do not contain sewage systems.
