The project to improve water quality and the performance of DWS systems in Morocco entails strengthening and securing drinking water supply in several towns especially Bouznika, Ben Slimane, Youssoufia and Safi and improving water quality within the Bouregreg system (artificial aeration at SMBA dam and ozonation at the current treatment plant) and the performance of existing DWS systems (reduce losses, optimize operation...). It seeks to meet the drinking and industrial water needs of these areas up to 2030.
The project includes three complementary investment components, aimed at strengthening existing production facilities for drinking water supply for urban and rural populations in four provinces, rehabilitating existing DWS systems and treatment plants, and upgrading existing production facilities. It will enable ONEE-Branche Eau to consolidate its productive base and its financial indicators and implement its development strategy, aimed at securing drinking water supply, improving the productivity and yields of its water supply systems.
This project is scheduled to be implemented over a period of 48 months (2016-2020).
