Preparatory Survey on Cooperation Program for the Improvement in Water Supply Services in the People's Republic of Bangladesh” PREPARATORY SURVEY ON COOPERATION PROGRAM FOR THE IMPROVEMENT IN WATER SUPPLY SERVICES IN THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF BANGLADESH AUGUST 2010 JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY YACHIYO ENGINEERING CO., LTD. SAD JR 10-013 PREPARATORY SURVEY ON COOPERATION PROGRAM FOR THE IMPROVEMENT IN WATER SUPPLY SERVICES IN THE PEOPLE’S REPUBLIC OF BANGLADESH AUGUST 2010 JAPAN INTERNATIONAL COOPERATION AGENCY YACHIYO ENGINEERING CO., LTD. Exchange Rates: Tk (Bangladesh Taka) 1.00=USD0.01447 USD 1.00 = JPY 89.84 (As of June 2010) Preface Recently, it is one of the important issues to secure safe and sufficient water resource all over the world. In March, 2009, “Istanbul Declaration of Heads of States on Water” was adopted at “the 5th World Water Forum” in Istanbul, Republic of Turkey, through a discussion on solutions for various water supply and sanitation issues. In Japan, water programs also have been actively implemented through water business for solutions of domestic and international water issues, such as to promote Public-Private Partnership programs in abroad. In the People's Republic of Bangladesh, assistance on water service, such as mitigation of arsenic pollution of water, construction of water purification facility in cities and improvement of rural water supply, have been implemented with supports of NGOs and donors including JICA. Some of private companies in Japan have already started business on water service sector there. Promotion of this entry of private companies into the water sector is expected with the existing supports by NGOs and implementation agencies of ODA. Under such circumstances, JICA conducted this Preparatory Survey aiming at formulation of the projects by collecting and examining proposals of private sectors on water supply service as “Preparatory Survey on Cooperation Program for the Improvement in Water Supply Services in the People's Republic of Bangladesh”. JICA appointed and dispatched a survey team from Yachiyo Engineering Co., Ltd. to the People's Republic of Bangladesh, in order to mainly examine the possibility and prospect for partnership programs of ODA and private sector and private sector individual program on water service. This report deals with the results of the Preparatory Survey, however, contents of this report do not necessarily reflect the present official opinions of JICA. I hope that this report will contribute to the promotion of the program formulation on water service sector in the People's Republic of Bangladesh, Finally, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the concerned officials for their close cooperation and assistance extended to the Survey.

  • Checklist of the Pteridophytes of Narsingdi District, Bangladesh
    Jahangirnagar University J. Biol. Sci. 8(2): 13-24, 2019 (December) Checklist of the pteridophytes of Narsingdi District, Bangladesh Robayda Khanam, Saleh Ahammad Khan and Mohammod Abdur Rahim Plant Systematics and Biodiversity Laboratory, Department of Botany, Jahangirnagar University, Savar, Dhaka-1342, Bangladesh Abstract The occurrence of a total of 31 species of pteridophytes under 20 genera and 13 families in Narsingdi district were confirmed. Pteridaceae with 11 species was found as the largest family, which was followed by Salviniaceae and Polypodiaceae consisted of four species each and Thelypteridaceae with three species. Each of the rest nine families was represented by only one species. Pteris with six species was found as the largest genus, which was followed by Salvinia with three species, and Adiantum, Ceratopteris, Pyrrosia and Cyclosorus with two species each. Each of the rest 14 genera was represented by only one species. Among these species, 21 were found as terrestrial, two as both terrestrial and semiaquatic, four as aquatic and other four as epiphytic. The occurrence of Tectaria chattagrammica Ching, listed as DD (Data Deficient) in Red Data Book of Bangladesh, was common with natural regeneration in this district. Key words: Checklist, Pteridophyte, Narsingdi district, Bangladesh. INTRODUCTION Pteridophytes or the ferns and fern-allies are the most primitive vascular plants in the plant world. They were a major part of the earth’s luxuriant vegetation during the Carboniferous period (The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia, 2012). In the modern era, the pteridophytes are an important component of the flora of any area. They have been used as ornamentals and medicinals (Nayar, 1957; Benerjee & Sen, 1980; Dhiman, 1998; Dixit, 1974 and 1975; Hodge, 1973; Kaushik, 1998; Singh, et al., 1989; Benjamin & Manickam, 2007; Kavitha et al., 2017; Singh & Rajkumar, 2017).

PERS. IN RELATION TO ECOTYPIC ADAPTATION 1,2 3 1 S.K. NITU , H. TARIQUE AND S.M.S. ISLAM * Plant Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering Lab., Institute of Biological Sciences, University of Rajshahi, Rajshahi-6205, Bangladesh Keywords: Anatomy; Cynodon dactylon; Leaf epidermis; Stomatal features. Abstract Qualitative and quantitative studies were done on leaf epidermal characteristics with special reference to stomatal features to find out the impact of environmental condition on twenty four accessions of Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. collected from different ecological habitats of Bangladesh. The foliar epidermal peels from both surfaces of mature leaves were observed under microscope. The leaves were found to be amphistomatic and stomata were paracytic type. The epidermal cells in this study were found to be sinuous. Silica bodies were found to be saddle and cross shaped. Prickles angular were pointed at the tip. Macro-hairs were present in all the accessions, but no micro-hair was found both adaxially or abaxially. Stomatal frequency and stomatal index were found to vary from accession to accession on both adaxial and abaxial surface of leaves, and the differences were statistically significant in most of the cases. Introduction Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers is a typical warm season turfgrass belongs to the family of Poaceae and this grass species is widely adapted to various environments of tropical and sub- tropical regions around the world. There are some ways for genetic diversity and population structure analysis of C.

  • INTEGRATING LAND with WATER ROUTES: Proposal for a Sustainable Spatial Network for Keraniganj in Dhaka
    Proceedings of the Ninth International Space Syntax Symposium Edited by Y O Kim, H T Park and K W Seo, Seoul: Sejong University, 2013 INTEGRATING LAND WITH WATER ROUTES: Proposal for a sustainable spatial network for Keraniganj in Dhaka Farida Nilufar 031 Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology e-mail : [email protected] Labib Hossain Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology e-mail : [email protected] Mahbuba Afroz Jinia Stamford University Bangladesh e-mail : [email protected] Abstract Cities in the delta have unique spatial character being criss-crossed by rivers and canals. Keraniganj Upazila of Dhaka District is a settlement surrounded by two big rivers which are again connected by a canal network. The spatial network of Keraniganj, therefore, has got some significance due to its connectivity with the water-ways. However, as a result of many insentient manmade efforts, the water-ways of this settlement did not developed to any integrated system with the surface routes. Canals are being used as drainage channels or being filled up. Moreover, seasonal floods have detrimental effects on the land-use and infrastructure. As a result the potential development of Keraniganj is being hampered. A new land-use proposal under Detailed Area Plan (DAP) is in process of implementation. Besides, the inhabitants are trying to develop their own solution through a number of local roads. None of them, the professionals or the locals, ever takes the challenge to live negotiating with nature. It appears that the spatial characteristics of the existing and proposed network need to be explored in order to evolve a sustainable spatial network for Keraniganj.
