in East of China. It locates in the down stream of Yellow River; Shandong Province is at the crossing point of Yellow River economy zone and Bohai Bay economy regions, which combines North China with East China. It has been one of Chinese political, economical, and cultural centers from ancient time. With the rapid economical development of Shandong province, infrastructures of the city are comparatively ill-developed, which can't meet the people’s increasingly demand on production and living. This restricts the sustainable development of the city. The collecting and treating capacity of the sewage are poor. The river is becoming narrower due to serious pollution of sewage and solid waste, which cause serious waterlogging and floods in partial areas. The living wastes are increased rapidly and problems caused by waste-treating are increasingly serious due to the shortage of waste-collecting and waste-treating sites, the long distance of waste transportation, the shortage of waste sorting and transporting stations, and the poor techniques and capacity of waste treatment. Some areas lack living and production water and drinking water is dirty, which have been threatening people’s health. Currently, most water supplies in Shandong Province are mainly from groundwater. With the development of business and investment and the improvement of people’s living standard, with the increasing water demand of city landscapes and agriculture irrigation, the serious problem of water supply has become a bottleneck of social and economic development. The city has continuously been facing ever-increasing environment threat of sewage and solid waste pollution. It is necessary to heighten the protection standards of environment (such as sewage treatment, riverway management, water supply project, waste treatment, ect.), of soil and water conservation and of ecosystem. In order to improve the environment, to follow the development principle of “people-oriented”, to promote Shandong integrated competitiveness, and to accelerate the sustainable development, Shandong government will loan from World Bank to carry out SDEPⅡ. SDEPⅡconsists of 10 sub-projects of three major types: Wastewater treatment projects, water supply projects and solid waste treatment projects. See details in Table1-1.
