Development Objective

The Project Development Objective (PDO) is to reduce urban pollution generated from wastewater and solid waste through proper collection, treatment and disposal in selected second-tier cities, mainly located in the Han River area of Hubei. This will be achieved by undertaking high priority investments in selected project cities in wastewater collection and treatment systems and solid waste management systems, as well as institutional reforms and capacity development in the areas of municipal utilities reforms and water pollution control. As its secondary objective, the project is intended to develop well-managed sustainable municipal utilities which could be referred to as models/best practices for other similar projects or programs to be implemented under the Provincial 11th Five-year Plan.
