The Project area is in the low land zone in the Vardar river basin (elevation +220 to 300 m) and the mountainous / hilly zone (elevation +500 to 1000 m) around Skopje, the capital city of the country. In general, rich groundwater potential is expected in lower zone, while spring and river-bed water are the main water source in mountainous / hilly zone. In Macedonia, the rate of population served by public water supply in 2000 was 100% in urban area and 28% in rural area. The number of patients of waterborne disease (typhoid, paratyphoid, dysentery and cholera) significantly decreased from 302 patients in 1995 to 113 patients in 2000. Thus, improvement of public hygiene condition through public water supply seems to largely contribute to prevent such waterborne disease. In non-piped-water served areas, water supply is poor condition in quantity and quality, since the shallow wells as their water source for domestic use is prone to be contaminated by sewer water, etc. Under the circumstances, the government of Macedonia puts high priority on water supply and wastewater treatment sector to improve living conditions. In the short-term investment plan formulated in 2002, “Public Investment Program of the Republic of Macedonia, 2002-2004” (PIP), the water resources development and construction of water supply facilities based on the proposition of “Water Resources Development and Management Master Plan” (M/P) were presented as investment items. 46 water supply and sewerage projects are proposed in PIP. The fact that 39 water supply projects are proposed in PIP among 46 water supply and sewerage projects indicates that the national priority for this sector is quite high. The Project was originally requested as a grant aid cooperation project to the Japanese Government in 1999. Then, eight municipalities were confirmed to be the priority for providing water supply service when “Project
