The Secretary of the DPWH was appointed as the “Water Czar” to promote the development of the sector. With the water supply MDG targets due by 2015 and with the water supply roadmap envisioning universal coverage by 2025, there is a need to establish the extent of investment required to improve water supply coverage and to sustain water supply operation through improved governance of water service providers and local governments. This project, through a Technical Assistance of the World Bank, was conceived to (1) determine the appropriate WSS structure within DPWH and develop its implementation and operation plan, and (2) identify targets, investment plans and programs. 2. The following methodology and approach were adopted for this study: i. Stock taking on the type of utilities, their location and number of service connections (levels II and III); ii. The following activities were done in parallel with the stock taking activities. Population projections for all the towns/cities with the 2010 census data as baseline; Gathering of data for cost estimating purposes, Review of past sector reports to have an overview of reforms
