SUBjECTs Project Completion Report on KenyaNairobi Third Water Supply Engineering Project(Credit 1566-RE)

Attached is the "Project Completion Report on Kenya - Nairobi ThirdWater Supply Engineering Project (Credit 1566-KE)" prepared by the InfrastructureOperations Division, Country Department II of the Africa Regional Office withPart II contributed by the Borrower.

The project aims at providing technical asoistance in the preparationof long-torm plans for the development of Nairobi' e water supply system aud itsresource and demand management and designing the next (third) Implementationphase for possible Bank funding. The project also included capacity buildingwithin the Water and Sewerage Department of the Nairobi City Council.

The project achieved its principal objective, preparation of a'futureproject that is now under implementation. Other important achievements were thecomprehensive training program and the carrying out of oparation, smagement andfinance studies. The follow-on implementation of these efforts was not totallysuccessful, e.g. the decision on tariff increase was substantially delayed, andthe improvements identified for City's Council computer center had to be deferredto the subsequent investment project.

Overall, the project outcome is rated as satisfactory. Itsinstitutional achievements are rated as partial and the sustainability of itsbenefits as likely, mostly on account'of the project's successful implementationof the training program.

The PCR is of good quality and provides an accurAte account ofproject's achievements. The project is scheduled to be audited as part of acluster of two water projects in Nairobi.

This is a Project Completion Report (PCP) for the Nairobi Third Water SupplyEngineering Project, for which Credit No. 1S66-KE in the amount of SDR 6,20 million (UJS$6.00 million equivalent) was approved on March 26, 1985. The Credit was closed on June 30,1991, three years behind schedule. The last disbursement was on October 1, 1991, and theundisbursed balance of SDR 0.04 million (US$ 0.06 million) was cancelled.

The PCR was prepared by the Infrascture Operations Division of the Eastern AfricaDepartment (Preface, Evaluation Summary, Parts I and Ill). Part II was prepared on behaf of theBorrower, the Nairobi City Council (NCC) by its Water and Sewerage Department (WSD).

Preparation of this PCR was carried out in March/April 1993, and is based ih alh onthe Staff Appraisal Report, the Development Credit and Project Agreements, supervision reports,correspondence between the Bank and the Borrower and interni Bank memoranda. Parts I andMI were sent to the Borrower on April 15, 1993, and Part II was received on June 25, 1993.

Backgrolnf and Epject pein

1. Development of the water supply system of Nairobi bad genealy kept pace with thegrowing demand. Ihe last major expansion, substatlSly completed in 1983, was made withfinancial assisance from the bank (Second Nairobi Waw Supply Project, Loan 1520-KE). Thisproject incrsed the water supply capacity to about 230,000 mlday, which was expected to meetthe demands up to 1987. The Government requested the Bank in mid-1983 to support thepreparation of the next, third phase expansion of the Nairobi sysem. A PPF advance of US$ 1.0million was provided in July 1984, for financing the early phase of the consutancy worL

2. Isiuonally, Nairobi's waer system was managed by the Water and SewerageDepartmet (WSD) of the Nakobi City Commission (NCC). WSD had shown a declingperformance during the implementation of the second phase project, maiy due to shortag ofexperienced staff. However, WSD's financial position, in contrast with NCC's overall financialposition was strong and efforts were made to recruit new staff, to mainain and Improve WSD'soperational and project implementon capacity.

3. The need for a third extension phase of Nairobi's water supply as part of the Nairobi citylong term development plan was clearly identified during the appraisal of the previous project.The project design therefore provided for (a) preparation of a long term program to manage watresources (and demands) on a regional basis; (b) detadled desIgns for the third phase extensiou;and (c) substantial assistace and taing program for WSD's manpower developmet.

ImpemenSion Expriec

4. The project start-up and early progress was satisory and the project coept ("projectdefinition") was presented by the Consultants in October 1985, and after some addionalrefinement was agreed to in January 1986. Progress on the detailed engineering design, however,was slower than expected and by late 1987, it became clear that even If the follow-on projectcould be appraised in 1988, its implemention could only commence in 1989 at the earliest, andcompletion would take at least 4 -5 yeas. It was proposed, therore, to change the planninghorizon from 1995 to 2000 - 2005. The subsequent redesigp of some part of the fure Project(notably to increase the capacity of the treatment works and the transmission mains) sted Inearly 1988, together with the reassessment of the enviroental impact of dhe project and thepreparation of the Environmental Action Program. The design modifications were ready by end-March 1988, and the future project was appraised in June 1988.

5. The Operation, Maintenance and Fiac (OMF) Study was caried out simultaneouslywith the ft phase of engineering consultacy, and provided a usel base for WSD's

reorganizaon, preparation of a suitable training program and for the redesign of the structure ofwater and sewerage tariffs. Specialist consultants were also appointed to review and assess theneeds for upgrading NCC's computer center.

Pa)iect Resuts

6. Overall, the Project was successfl in meeting Its principal objective, i.e., the preparationof the future project. The train component of the Project has been successful and helped toovercome the chronic staffig problem of the organizatun with intensive training on all levels andundoubtedly Improved WSD's operational effick:icy. Less successful was the improvement ofNCC's computer facilities (shared with WSD) which was finally deferred to the main Investmentproject.

7. WSD's financial performance was satisfactory during the project period, and it was ableto build up sufficient reserves to contribute over US$ 100 million equivalent to the maininvestment project. By mid-1986, NCC reduced its liabilities to the Water Fund (resulted fromNCC's unuthorized use of war and sewerage revenues for other purposes) to KSI 50 milion,and the tariffs were increased by an average of 40% in FY87/88. NCC, however, began to drainagai substantial amounts from the Water Fund in FY88/89 and its condtued use of this sourceled i=Ab6 to the suspension of disbursements under the Tlird Nairobi Water Supply Ptoject(October 1992).

ftWect Sutialj

S. WSD had a commendable record in maintning and opeaing Nairobi's water supply andsewerage systems, even in periods of financial difficulties and manpower shoraes. However,without a solid financial and institutional base, sustainiity of water supply and sewerageservices could be in danger. The major risks in this regard are:

(a) delay in introducing tariff increases as and when required - a 35% taiff increaewas introduced in 1984, and another 40% in 1987 - however, this has not beenfollowed by any futher increase to date J1;

(b) contumed use of the Water fund to finance NCC's operations other than water andsewerage services - NCC's liabilties to the Water Fund were reduced to KSh 50million by 1988 (apprisal of the follow-on investnt project). The unauthrizeduse of these Funds, however, has continued periodically thereafte which resultedIn insufficient zasb flow for WSD to finance its contribution to the project costs;and

(c) inefficient billing and collection - at the time of the appraisal of this project, thearrears amounted to about 120 days of billing; these increased to about 250 daysby 1989. It is estiated that about 60% of the unpaid bills belong to ministriesand other government institutions. Efforts have been made to improve the billing

9. The main technical. objective of the engineering project, L.e., the preparation ofpreinvestment studies and detailed engineering designs for a future investment project was met,although the project scope (design horizon) had to be extended in mid-ream, which resulted insome delays in the actual start-up of the main project.

10. The "institutional" objective of the project was only partially met. The trainingcomponent was successful and WSD's institutional capacity improved. Because of theinstitutional and financial wealness of NCC, which was not adequately addressed in theEngineering Credit, NCC remained to a great extent dependent financially on the revenues fromwater and sewerage operations: hence its repeated unauthorized use of the Water Fund.

II. Project implemenion, from start to substni completion took 6 years (verus the 3year program as originally enisaged), although project funds in the las 2 yeanr were utilizedmanly for training.

12. In summary the main lessons leared are:

(a) Training of the Borrower's staff in procurement procedures and thorough reviewof procurement documents are essential to avoid delays in project implemeion

(b) The risks amsociated with the performance of the Borrower (NCC) wereunderestimaed compared to its principal project implementig arm (WSD). TheBank should have been more decisive in exercising its remedies for non-compliance with the credit covenants. Although implementation of the investmentproject itself has been good, disbursements under the follow-on main project(Ihird Nairobi Water Supply Project, Cr. 2060-KE, which became effctive inMarch 1990) were suspended in October 1992, because of govemment faiure toraise tariffs, continued NCC borrowing from the Water Fund, and continuedproblems with arrears to WSD.

(c) It is clear that the Nairobi Water and Sewerage Department should be anindependent public (or private) entity, if it ever is to be allowed to become afinancially self-sustning organzation.

B. BakgMrun

1. Kenya's economy In the early 1980's was adversely affected by the droughts in 1979/80and 1983/84. Although industrial growth was still at a reasonable level of 3.5% per annum,naricultural output stagnated. Migration to urban areas increased; overall urban growth wan-about7% per annum, increasing the need for urban services.

2. Development of the water supply system of Nairobi had generally kept pace with thegrowing demand. The last major expansion, subsnially completed in 1983 was made withfincial sistance from the Bank (Second Nairobi Water Supply Project, Loan 1520-KE). Thisproject increased the water supply capacity to Nairobi to about 230,000 m3lday, which wasexpected to meet the demands up to 1987.

3. It was against this background that Government requested the Bank in mid-1983 tosupport the preparation of the next, third phase expansion of the Nairobi system. A PPF advanceof US$ 1.0 million was provided (request date: May 18, 1984, approval date: July 5, 1984) forfinancing the early phase of the consultancy work.

4. Institutionally, Nairobi's water system was managed by the Water and SewerageDepartment (WSD) of the Nairobi City Commission (NCC). WSD had shown a decliningperformance during the implementation of the second phase project, mainiy due to shortage ofexperienced staff. However, WSD's financial position was strong, in contrast with NCC's overallfinancial situation which had rapidly declined since 1974/75. NCC, in order to meet its financialobligations made unauthorized use of the revenues generated by water supply and sewerageservices (Water Fund) until 1983/84. After the dismissal of the Nairobi City Council in 1983, theappointed City Commission made considerable efforts to repay its liabilities to the Water Fund,and the water and sewerage tariffs were raised by 35% on the average to enable WSD tocontribute to the preparation of a future project.

C. Pect Objectives and Descr:ton

5. The main objectives of the Engineering Project were to:

(a) prepare a project which would meet Nairobi's rapidly expanding water demandsup to the mid-1990's;

(O) strengthen the operations and financial management of WSD to undertake the thirdphase Investment;

(c) assist NCC in improving the performance of its Financial Department and itscomputer facilities;

(d) assist in the preparation of a long-term program to manage water resources on aregional basis;

(e) assess Nairobi's sewerage and sanitation requirements.

Project Descipution

6. The main components of the Project were:

(a) consultancy services for

(i) feasibility studies;

(1i) detailed engineering designs (including contract packagig and prepaationof bid documents);

(iii) associated studies for environmental assessment and preparation of anEAP; and

(iv) dam expert panel.

(b) technical assistance and training for NCC and WSD, including:

(i) institutional (operational, management and financial studies);

0i) improvement to NCC's computer center;

(ii) manpower development through long- and short-term training.

7. The need for a third expansion phase of Nairobi's water supply as part of the Nairobi Citylong-term water development plan, was clearly identified during the appraisal of the Second

-3.

Nairobi Water Supply Project in 1977 1/. At that time, it proved economical to deferconstruction of an expensive dam and storage reservoir for at least seven years to a later phase, tobe prepared under thbis engineering credit. The feasibility study phase of the Project was designedto rewiew and supplement the previous studies ("project definition") together with the grepaationof a long term prog= , MA watr resources rand demands) on a regional basis. Detaileddesigm were to be prepared In Xt following phase.

8. The project also provided for (a) an independent dam expert panel, and (b) anenvironmental impact assessment study.

9. Due to a two-year delay in final commissioning of the previous project, changes in theCity's administrative structure, and senior personnel changes in the policy making levels of theparent Ministry of Local Government (MLG), the forward planning for the third expansion phasefell behind schedule. In order to speed implementation, a high level interministerial committeewas established. NCC with government support appointed consultants to carry out thepreinvestment studies and subsequent detailed engineering. To assist the Government and NCCrecover project momentum, the Bank approved in July 1984 a PPF advance of US$ 1.0 millionto help finance the early phase of the consultancy 2/.

10. The Borrower was the Republic of Kenya. The credit amount was on-lent to the NairobiCity Commission, and direct responsibility for the project implementation lay with its Water andSewerage Department. Prior to appraisal, the Project Implementation Unit (PIU) within WSDwas strengthened with additional staff and detailed job descriptions were prepared for themembers of the unit. In order to ensure project sustainability, special emphasis was given in theproject design to the Operation, Management and Finance (OMF) Study (carried out by specialistsubconsultants), and to the training component. To ensure WSD's finncial viability, a 35% tariffincrease was approved (see also para. 4) and NCC gradually reduced Its outstanding obligation tothe Water Fund.

13. Projec Implementaion

11. The Project was appraised in late 1984, approved by the Board on March 26, 1985 l/,and became effective on August 21, 1985. The engineering consultants had started work alreadyin mid-1984 financed partially through the PPF advance (see also para. 9). The early progresswas satisfactory and the project concept ("project definition") was first presented by theConsultants in October 1985, and after some additional refinement was agreed to in January 1986.Progress on the detailed engineering designs, however, was slower than expected and by late 1987it became clear that, even if the follow on project could be appraised in 1988, its implementationcould only commence in 1989 at the earliest, and (substantial) completion would take at least 4 -5years. WSD, therefore, proposed to change the planning horizon from 1995 to 2000 - 2005. TeBank (and the cofinanciers) agreed to the proposal, and the work to redesign some parts of thefuture Project (notably to increase the capacity of the treaunent works and the transmission mains)

started in early 1988, together with the reassessment of the environmental impact of the projectand the preparation of the EAP. The design modifications were ready by end-March 1988, andthe future project was appraised in June 1988 4/.

12. The OMP Study, carried out by specialist subconsultants, was completed by end-1986.The findings and recommendatiow; provided a useful base for VWSD's reorganization, preparationof a suitable training program and for the redesign of the structure of water and sewerage tariffs.However, the recommendations in regard to institutional restructuring - particularly the split ofwater supply and sewerage were not realistic and the training proposal did not explore localopportunities.

13. NCC/WSD also appointed consultants to review and assess the needs for upgradingNCC's computer center. This consultancy resulted in some improvement but did not achieve itsultimate objective of upgrading and extending the computer facilities to adequately cope with bothNCC and WSD's needs. An independent computer center for WSD is now being set-up, underthe main investment project; however, the existing arrangement of sharing the capacity of thecomputer facilities has had an adverse effect on WSD's billing and revenue collection operations.

14. In order to reduce losses in the system (which were as high as 35% to 40% after thecompletion of the second phase project) WSD on its own also hired consultants for leak detectionand control. his proved to be very useful in reducing the losses and improving WSD'soperational efficiency, and was later incorporated in the Engineering Project E/.

15. The training component of the Project has been successful. A special training program,tailored to the needs of WSD, was provided by IRCU f/, mostly for mid-and lower-level staff.About 20 professional staff were sponsored to participate in 12 to 18 month diploma and/orM.Sc. courses, and 13 other staff attended relevant short courses (I to 3 months). This trainingprogram helped to overcome the chronic staffing problem of the organization, and undoubtedlyimproved WSD's operational efficiency.

16. In mid-1986, because of the rapid depreciation of the US$ versus the £Stg (the currencyof payment of foreign costs under the consultancy contract), to ensure availability of funds forforeign cost payments, agreement was reached that NCCJWSD would not seek the reimbursementof 50% of local expenditures which were to be financed by the Credit. In addition, for the samereason, WSD did not use project funds for the local (IRCU) training component.

F. rject ReBslts

17. Overall, the Project was successful in meeting its principal objective i.e., the preparationof the future project, and providing adequate training to ease WSD's long-lasting staffingproblems. Less successful was the improvement of NCC's computer facilities (shared with WSD))which was finally deferred to the main investment project.

18. WSD's financial performance was satisfactory during the project period, and it was ableto build up sufficient reserves to contribute over US$ 100 million equivalent to the follow-onmain investment project 21. By mid-1986, NCC reduced its liabilities to the Water Fund toKSH 50 million, and the water and sewerage tariffs were increased by an average 40% in FY87/88. NCC, however, began to drain again substantial amounts from the Water Fund inFY88/89 and its continued use of this source led inter alia, to the suspension of disbursementsunder the Third Nairobi Water Supply Project (October 1992).

19. The Closing of the Credit was extended by 3 years and the Credit actually closed on June30, 1991. 85% of the funds were disbursed by June 1989. The remaining 15% was utilizedmostly for the T.A. and training component.

20. No economic rate of return was calculated for the engineering project.

G. Project Sustainability

21. WSD had a commendable record in maintaining and operating Nairobi's water supply andsewerage systems, even in periods of financial difficulties and manpower shortages. However,without a solid financial and institutional base sustainability of water supply and sewerage servicescould be in danger. The major risks in i - regard are:

(a) delay in introducing tariff increases as and when required - a 35% tariff increasewas introduced in 1984, and another 40% in 1987 - however, this has not beenfollowed by any further increase to date I/;

(b) continued use of the Water fund to finance NCC's operations other than water andsewerage services - NCC's liabilities to the Water Fund were reduced to KSh 50million by 1988 (appraisal of the follow-on investment project). The unauthorizeduse of these Funds, however, has continued periodically thereafter which resultedin insufficient cash flow for WSD to finance its contribution to the project costs;and

(c) inefficient billing and collection - at the time of the appraisal of this project, thearrears amounted to about 120 days of billing; these increased to about 250 daysby 1989. It is estimated that about 60% of the unpaid bills belong to ministriesand other government institutions. Efforts have been made to improve the billingcycle, but sufficient improvement in collection of revenues was not achieved bythe closing date of this project.

22. Non-compliance with the financial covenants in regard of above, led to the suspension ofdisbursements under the Third Nairobi Water Supply Project. In the period of October 1992 toMarch 1993, although considerable efforts were made to improve WSD's financial position,

I/ At end-March 1993, when this PCR report was prepared, a tariff increase had beenapproved but not yet put into effect.

introduction of overdue tariff increase, sufficient repayments to the Water Fund, and reduction ofarrears to 150 days by mid-1993, are still awaited.

H. Bank akin rroe ernane

23. The performance of both the Bank and the Borrower was satsfactory during thepreparation and early (feasibility) phase of the project. WSD's performance in the technic&'preparation and extension of the design horizon was excellent.

24. During the detailed engineering design phase more attention and assistance to WSD by theBank staff in the preparation of bids and contract documents might have helped to avoid delays inprocurement. Project supervision was generally satisfactory.

25. WSD's financial (cash flow) problems are related more to the follow-on investmentproject, which ran simultaneously with the engineering project in the period 1989-91. WSD'sunderlying financial strength was demonstrated by the fact that reimbursement request for localcost was substantially reduced to save IDA funds for foreign payments. Revenue collectionperformance was WSD's weakest spot; it stemmed partially from the inefficient computerfaciities (biling problems), but also to a large degree from political interference, and weakfinancial management.

26. Tne relationship between the Bank and NCC/WSD was generally cooperative and candidduring the project cycle.

27. The engineering consultant performance was mediocre. lle major problems were (a)timely review/revision of the project scope as a result of extended design horizon; (b)underemated costs of certain contracts; and (c) inadequate quality of bid documents andhandling of procurement matters on behalf of NCCIWSD.

28. No staff appraisal report was prepared for this project. The President's Report (No. P-3943-KE) was however, sufficiently detailed for the purpose of the engineering project.

29. Record keeping by WSD and its Project hnplementation Unit (PIU) was satisfactory, afteran initial period. The quality of project accounts has also been generally satisfactory.

L. Findings and Lessons Leared

30. The main -technical' objective of the engineering project, i.e., the preparation ofpreinvestment studies and detailed engineering designs for a future investment project was met,although the project scope (design horizon) had to be extended in mid-stream, which resulted insome delays in the actual start-up of the main project.

31. The "institutional- objective of the project was only partially met. The trainingcomponent was successful and WSD's institutional capacity improved. Because of the

institutional and financial weakness of NCC, which was not adequately addressed in theEngineering Credit, NCC remained to a great extent dependent financially on the revenues fromwater and sewerage operations: hence its repeated unauthorized use of the Water Fund.

32. Project implementation, from start to substantial completion took 6 years (versus the 3year program as originally envisaged), although project funds in the last 2 years were utilizedmainly for training.

33. In summary the main lessons learned are:

(a) Training of the Borrower's staff in procurement procedures and thorough reviewof procurement documents are essential to avoid delays in project implementation;

(b) The risks associated with the performance of the Borrower (NCC) wereunderestimated compared to its principal project implementing arm (WSD). TheBank should have been more decisive in exercising its remedies for non-compliance with the credit covenants. Although implementation of the investmentproject itself has been good, disbursements under the follow-on main project(Third Nairobi Water Supply Project, Cr. 2060-KE, which became effective inMarch 1990) were suspended in October 1992, because of government failure toraise tariffs, continued NCC borrowing from the Water Fund, and condnuedproblems with arrears to WSD.

(c) It is clear that the Nairobi Water and Sewerage Departnent should be anindependent public (or private) entity, if it ever is to be allowed to become afinancially self-sustaining organization.

PART II: PROJECT REVIEW FROM BORROWER'S PERSPECTIVE

A. Comments

1. The Bank's (Part 1) of the project review is considered to be reasonably accurate anddescribes the project design and implementation stages adequately. However, there are somecomments andlor clarifications on-Part I that need to be stated here.

2. The tariff increase was made in May 1993 of 37%.

3. The arrears build-up resulted from a combination of errors in billing, increase in quantityof water sold and increase in tariff. This made the arrears due from the 60% who were notpaying bills, to increase.

4. The delays in procurement could have been reduced if the Bank's response and/orcomments on contract documents were made quickly and on time. In some cases, the Bank;sresponse took very long to be received and this could have been speeded up. However, NairobiCity CouncilJWater and Sewerage Department received a lot of professional advice from the TaskManger and this helped to minimize delays.

5. The relationship between Nairobi City Council/Water Sewerage Department and the Bankwas cooperative and candid during the project.

6. The technical objective of the project was achieved and detailed designs of the projectscope became available for the project's implementation.

7. The development of the Water and Sewerage Department institutional set up commencedand with a vigorous staff development through training, it continues to be stronger and more ableto manage the tasks assigned to Water and Sewerage Department.

8. The financial viability of the Water and Sewerage Department will depend upon its beingable to produce and market water and sewerage services at least cost, irrespective of whether it isan independent public or private entity.

9. The data in Part m are noted. It is, however, not clear whether the report should havecovered the period to end of engineering credit closing date or not. This is because some of theevents relate to periods beyond the closing date of engineering credit 30th June, 1991.

B. Review from Borrower's Perslective

10. The project was successful in preparing the designs and procurement documents for theproject and these have since been used in the physical implementation of the project The designperiod for the project was changed to a longer period in 1987, since the project would generategreater benefits. This also has assured the future Water Supply Plans for Nairobi beyond the year2005 - 2010. The training element was very successful and contributed effectively to themanagement of the Water and Sewerage Department in particular and Nairobi City Council ingeneral. The issues that were the subject of the October 1992 suspension have been addressed,and it is expected the suspension will be lifted during the third quarter of 1993.
