004_GBP_IIT_EQP_S&R_03_Ver 1_Dec 2010 Recommendations and
Actions Required: Henceforth, all new sewage treatment plants (item
6) and associated sewage pumping stations (item 5) should be
constructed and managed together, i.e., by the same agency. The
sewage pumping and treatment infrastructure should be built in a
modular fashion such that the capacity is at most 125% of the
actual sewage availability. All new sewage treatment plants
sanctioned by the NGRBA should require treatment up to tertiary
level (as specified in GRBMP_IIT_EQP_SNR 02 _Ver 1 Dec 10) and
should be funded by the DBO model as specified in this report. All
necessary clearances, permissions, etc. required by NGRBA for
funding of sewage treatment plants using the DBO model should be
obtained. The process of empanelment of reputed service providers
interested in participating in construction, operation and
maintenance of sewage treatment plants through the DBO route should
be started. Recommendations and Actions Required: Henceforth, all
