Abstract | This session examines the issue of combined versus separate wastewater collection systems and poses the question: Where should the World Bank's Sanitation and Wastewater treatment policy be heading? The two models have very different institutional implications. In the combined model the municipal agency (or a subsidiary firm) retains the responsibility for planning and implementation of the programme. In the separated model, the water utility (or the community) undertakes the responsibility of collecting and treating liquid wastes generated by households. Speakers describe the experiences of the Bangkok Metropolitan Area, the Brasilia State Water Company (CAESB) and the city of Malang, in Indonsia. |
