Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective? Yes Board Approved Revised Project Development Objective (If project is formally restructured)HRPDODELs The project development objective is to provide an environmentally safe disposal system for the treated wastewater in the North of Tunis, and increase availability for its reuse in the Project Area. Components Table Name Part A: transfer of treated wastewater (TWW) to increase availability for its reuse:(Cost $25.00 M) Part B: improvement of the discharge of the remaining TWW in the Mediterranean Sea:(Cost $42.00 M) Part C: monitoring and capacity strengthening:(Cost $6.00 M) Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Risk Rating Moderate Moderate Implementation Status and Key Decisions 2/23/2021 Page 1 of 6 Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Tunisia Northern Tunis Wastewater Project (P117082) All works included under the original scope of the Project were completed. The submarine outfall has been completed and water quality control campaigns performed to date evidence a significant improvement of the quality of waters in the Raoued beach, which has been removed by health authorities from the list of coastal areas where swimming and leisure activities are prohibited. The Sidi Amor wastewater reuse pilot has also been completed, it is currently operational and also meeting applicable effluent quality standards for agricultural reuse. The replacement on the remaining open-air segment of the Khelij canal (from the Choutrana WWTP to the GRDA pumping station) by a double transmission pipeline is expected to be completed before June 2021.
