In this Update we focus on confiscations and Barrier construction in the Ramallah area.1 Qatanna area Military land confiscation orders for the construction of the Barrier between Beit Sira and Beit Ur al Fauqa were issued on 15 December and 6 January (see Map). According to the October 2003 projections, a barrier will also be constructed to the north of this area, creating an enclave of around 15,800 acres. Fourteen communities with a combined population of around 50,400 will be affected.2 Even before the construction of the northern part of the barrier in this area, the Beit Sira-Beit Ur al Fauqa section of the barrier and an Israeli restricted road will effectively enclose the communities living south of the road. Construction of the barrier around this area will affect this population in the following ways: • Livelihoods: A large proportion of the population in this area is dependent on income from agriculture – mainly through the cultivation of olives and wheat.

Thesis Assessment of Wastewater Reuse Potential in Palestinian Rural Areas By: Ola Adilah (1075252) Supervised by: Dr. Maher Abu-Madi Birzeit, 2010 I Assessment of Wastewater Reuse Potential in Palestinian Rural Areas By: Ola Adilah (1075252) Supervised by: Dr. Maher Abu-Madi This thesis was submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Master’s Degree in Water and Environmental Engineering, from the Faculty of Graduate Studies at Birzeit University, Palestine. Birzeit, 2010 II Assessment of Wastewater Reuse Potential in Palestinian Rural Areas By: Ola Adilah (1075252) This thesis was prepared under the supervision of Dr. Maher Abu Madi and has been approved by all members of the Examination Committee . Examination Committee: Dr. Maher Abu-Madi Chairman of the Committee ________________________________ Dr. Nidal Mahmoud Member ________________________________ Dr. Ziad Mimi Member ________________________________ Date of Defense: 7th, October, 2010 III ABSTRACT To develop a framework for a national Palestinian strategy for management of rural wastewater it is expected that at least quantity and quality of wastewater is known. For the West Bank there are no annual statistics on the total volume of rural wastewater generated, transported, treated and reused. This study assesses the potential of wastewater reuse as a non-conventional resource in the Palestinian rural areas. The potential of reuse refers to the amount of rural wastewater that is or could be collected and treated and that would possibly add to the national water balance and also the effluent quality needed for each reuse option. The methodology included developing a framework for assessing wastewater quantities generated from rural areas using three water sources for consumption within households: water network, water vendors and cisterns.
