Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective? No Components Table Name Component A: Improvement of Water Supply Infrastructure (estimated at US$101.47 million of which IDA finances 64.70%)::(Cost $101.47 M) Component B: Institutional Strengthening and Capacity Building (estimated cost US$2.07 million, of which IDA finances 100%).:(Cost $2.07 M) Component C: Studies for Future Investments (estimated cost US$0.35 million of which IDA finances 100%).:(Cost $0.35 M) Component D: Project Management (estimated cost US$2.18 million of which IDA finances 100%):(Cost $2.18 M) Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Moderately Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Moderately Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Risk Rating Moderate Moderate Implementation Status and Key Decisions The Project has made remarkable progress towards the achievement of the Project Development Objectives (PDO). The PDO indicator targets have been met. Moreover, all Intermediate Results indicators have been met. The strategic Dvoinik water treatment plant (DWTP) has been completed and both Alat and Karakul people started to receive high quality drinking water. The DWTP has a capacity of 50,000 m3/day and is thus sufficient to supply a population of up to 500,000 people in future. 11/29/2021 Page 1 of 8 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Alat and Karakul Water Supply Project (P118197) In addition to DWTP, the project has been financing other eight works contracts for the expansion and rehabilitation of water distribution systems covering 1,366 km of pipe network, 50.6 km transmission mains, 4 pump stations 50,815 water meters and service connections, 8 reservoirs of 12,000 m3 capacity and 37 water towers with 8000 m3 capacity. Institutional strengthening activities under Component B, have also progressed remarkably with evidence of citizen engagements, public outreach and the customer satisfaction survey has been launched. Moreover, the project improved the performance of the utility management through continuous training. The financial performance of both Alat and Karakul has been improved and the revenue collection is adequate to meet the two branches operating cost with potential margin to partly cover the asset depreciation. The total disbursements have reached US$ 70.32 million, or 94.62 percent of total IDA credits. The mission also noted that the project coordination unit (PCU) has taken several positive steps to address financial reporting and environmental and social safeguards management issues.
