1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION
1.1 Beneficiary
All the inhabitants of Lahore District.

1.2 Contracting Authority

Water and Sanitation Agency (WASA), Lahore Development Authority (LDA)

1.3 Relevant Background

1.3.1 Project Description

Urbanization presents one of the key challenges and, at the same time, opportunities in the
new millennium. Urbanization is taking place at a rapid pace and is beyond the effective
control of most government across the world. The scale and complexity of urban problems
are increasing everywhere and out of those most challenging is to meet the water and
sanitation demands. All cities must plan ahead to enable a sustainable future in the rapidly
changing urban environment. Cities must review their strategic plans to develop better
economic, social and environmental future. Those cities that fail to plan ahead and execute
the plans will not be competitive in the globalized world.

In the same context, Water and Sanitation Agency (WASA), Lahore Development
Authority intends to hire consultants for preparation of Master Plan with 25-year planning
horizon and identification/prioritization of projects for provision of physical infrastructure
for water supply, sewerage, storm water drainage and waste water treatment with detailed
designing and costing for the Lahore District to meet the present & future requirements for
efficient and effective service delivery.

The consultant shall consider, as appropriate, alternative options and analyze these in terms
of their institutional, technical and financial merits.

1.3.2 Geographical Area to be Covered

Lahore is the capital of the province of Punjab and the second largest city of Pakistan.
Major portion of the city lies towards east and south of River Ravi, a tributary of mighty
River Indus. The average elevation of the city is 700 ft. above mean sea level. Lahore is
situated on the flood plain of River Ravi which has a gradual slope towards South West.

At the time of independence, Lahore had an estimated population of about 0.775 million.
After independence in 1947, the growth of city further accelerated. Lahore continued to
grow and by 1998, Lahore was transferred into a metropolis city. The current WASA
Lahore service area is about 350 Sq. Km with an estimated population of 6.152 million.
However for the Master Planning purpose, whole of the district is the study area.

1.4 Previous Master Plan and Studies Conducted

The consultants should study and review the previous Master Plan suggestions,
provisions and their implementation during 1975 to 2011, the physical targets achieved,
deviations from the plan, shortcomings and suggestion about works being executed at
present as briefly described below:

1.4.1 Master Plan for Water Supply, Sewerage & Drainage System of Lahore (1975)

Previous Master Plan for WASA Lahore was prepared in 1975 with World Bank
Assistance with 25-year planning horizon. Major interventions made under the previous
plan were:

a) Direct pumping through the network of main well centres along the River Ravi Bed.
Construction of Old Ravi, National Ravi, Bhogiwal, and Salamat Pura Well Centres.
b) Water supply to the city through big feeder mains of Ductile Iron Pipes.
c) Provision of main sewerage pumping stations and trunk sewers
d) Laying of 12” to 32” dia Ductile Iron feeder mains from well centres to inside city.
e) Construction of Disposal Stations at Mahmood Booti, Sadbagh, Khokhar Road,
Gulshan-e-Ravi, Farrukhabad, Multan Road and Main Outfall.

1.4.2 Sewerage and Drainage System for Central Lahore (2002)

Comprehensive engineering study for sewerage & drainage system of Central Lahore was
conducted with planning horizon upto year 2027.

1.4.3 Sewerage and Drainage System for South Lahore (2007)

Comprehensive engineering study for sewerage & drainage system of South Lahore was
conducted with planning horizon upto year 2057.

1.4.4 Sewerage and Drainage System for Southwest Lahore (2008)

Comprehensive engineering study for sewerage & drainage system of Southwest Lahore
was conducted with planning horizon up to year 2058.

1.5 Current State of Affairs in the Relevant Sector

1.5.1 General

Master Plan for water, waste water and storm water drainage services was last prepared by
M/s Camp, Dresser & Mckee (CDM) in 1975. The city has since grown many times in size
and population. LDA now wants to assess not just the current situation but to forecast
future needs, which calls for exhaustive studies and planning on several counts to make
water supply, sewerage & storm water drainage system sustainable. It includes:

3
 Preparation of Master Plans for water, wastewater and storm-water drainage

 To recycle the wastewater after its treatment and its use for arboricultural /
irrigation purposes.
 To use the rainwater for recharging the ground water.

Investment in the sector over many years has been at a level well below that needed for
sustainability and consequently the infrastructure cannot meet the standards needed to
achieve compliance with the environmental requirements. The standards of service have
declined to a point where a large proportion of the population receives water on an
intermittent basis and of a quality which is not up to the standards of potability.
Wastewater is discharged without licenses thus causing significant environmental risks.

1.5.2 Drinking water sector

Lahore District, its main 9 towns and surroundings areas are located over water aquifer.
The water supply in the city is purely based on the ground water. The water is abstracted
through a number of tubewells installed in all parts of the district which is generally
pumped directly into the distribution system. Due to ever increasing number of tubewells,
the water table is depleting rapidly. The organization and management of the services
lacks coherence, and investment has been far below the level needed both for long term
sustainability of the existing assets, and to bring the systems up to modern standards in
terms of water conveyance, storage, level of losses and treatment.

In addition to these general statements about the service, the other problems of the water
supply sector includes the following:
 Regulations are weak in terms of the definition of responsibilities and the allocation
of them.
 Monitoring, inspection and enforcement powers are also very weak.
 There is no clear separation of the regulatory functions and the service provision
functions after the devolution and 18th amendment.
 Water supply is on an intermittent basis.
 Study and review the existing levels of service
 The resource situation is not exactly known because there are no recent and
detailed hydrological and hydro-geological studies of sustainable yields.
 Main traditional source is under increasing threat from saline intrusion (due to
over-pumping) and pollution (due to absence of sewerage and sewage treatment
over an unconfined aquifer, and the intensive use over many years of agro-
chemicals such as nitrogenous fertilizers and pesticides).
 The levels of non-revenue water are considerable, and the components (physical
leakage, technical and commercial losses) are not separately estimated
 There isn’t a clear policy on the allocation of water resources between the
competing needs for drinking water and those of irrigated agriculture.

4
 Preparation of Master Plans for water, wastewater and storm-water drainage

 The pricing policy for the drinking water service is not sufficiently in line with the
scarcity of water. Tariffs are not explicitly set at cost recovery levels – either to
cover resource costs and operation and maintenance, or asset depreciation and any
investment financing charges.
 All water services are not metered, and there is no policy on periodic re-calibration
of meters. Bill collection rates are very poor. Continuation of the services is
dependent solely on central and local annual budgets.
 No records are kept of assets, their condition, book value or remaining service life.
No asset management (business) planning is carried out. Recent investments in the
sector have been mainly on pipe replacements.

1.5.3 Wastewater sector

Presently, no waste water treatment services exist and the raw waste water is directly discharged
into the River Ravi which creates environmental problems especially when significant dilution is
not available in the river. The sewerage service generally suffers from:
 Failure to keep up with the development of the district or because of piecemeal
extensions. The result is that capacity is inadequate in many places and leading to
overflowing on to the surface and hence drainage to low lying (ponded) areas with
resultant contamination of near surface groundwater
 No records are kept of assets, their condition, book value or remaining service life.
No asset management (business) planning is carried out. Recent investments in the
sector have been mainly on pipe replacements
 Lack of effluent standards and enforcement
 Poor maintenance of pumping stations – no preventive maintenance
 Combined systems of sewerage and storm water, which can’t cope with heavy
rainfall, which leads to surface flooding and ponding.
 Absence of any sewage treatment

1.5.4 Storm-water Sector

Storm water drainage has also become a major environmental concern particularly in urban areas
of the Lahore where mostly partially combined drainage/sewerage systems are in use. The
situation becomes worse in the monsoon which normally extends from July to September. It is
not only an issue for low lying areas but also for some developed localities. The other related
issues are:
 Poor maintenance of pumping stations again leading to overflows and ponding
 Combined systems of sewerage and stormwater, which can’t cope with heavy
rainfall, which leads to surface flooding and ponding
 Dumping of Solid Waste into drains.

5
 Preparation of Master Plans for water, wastewater and storm-water drainage

1.5.5 Waste Water Treatment Sector

A greater area of concern is the lack of waste water treatment which could not meet the
requirements of national Environmental Quality Standards. With very few exceptions the
problem of safe disposal of domestic and other industrial effluents has not been addressed. The
ground situation is that bulk of the waste water (domestic/industrial) is discharged untreated into
natural water bodies (streams, canals, rivers, seepage drains, and other channels) and /or used for
irrigation purposes.

will be needed to prepare the investment projects.

3.3.2 Assess the Existing Institutional Arrangements

The 1973 Constitution assigns responsibility for the sector to provinces and service provision to
local governments. The 18th Amendment (April 19, 2010) has resulted in fiscal, administrative
and functional decentralization of the sector to the province. Urban water supply operations are
managed by Tehsil Municipal Administrations (TMAs) for small and medium sized towns and
by Water and Sanitation Agencies (WASAs) in five large cities that includes Lahore.

In rural areas, with the reinforcement of the Local Government Ordinance (LGO) of 2001 urban
– rural divide has been abolished and as a consequence prescribed the dissolution of rural water
and sanitation institutions i.e. PHED at all levels.

The consultant would assess the effects of the decentralization process and bring clarity among
roles of differ departments involved in the sector through legal and regulatory framework and
how these agencies would interact with each other to improve over all governance and
administration.

 Preparation of Master Plans for water, wastewater and storm-water drainage

3.3.9 Comparative analysis of water supply distribution system through water storage tanks
Vs direct pumping:

 The original water supply system was based on supply through Overhead Reservoirs
(OHRs). During the implementation of World Bank Project the major part of the capital
investment was spent on sewerage disposal stations and construction of new Reservoirs
was proposed to be delayed upto 1980. With the passage of time the most of the existing
Reservoirs have outlived their lives and at present are not in use. The present water
supply is generally & mostly based on direct pumping of water by the tubewells into the
distribution system. The consultant will map and analyze the present direct pumping
system, examine its flaws, pros & cons with respect to financial impact, water quality and
pressure. The consultant will compare the present system with the supply through
Overhead Reservoirs (OHRs) and will prepare a proposal for induction of Overhead
Reservoirs in the system, if found feasible.
 While exploring the use of OHRs, study the use of existing OHRs (functional / non
functional) and location of new OHRs may be determined through the detailed computer
modeling of the distribution system considering the available water sources, their
location, pipe network and water demand etc.
 Study the shortcomings of distribution network through computer aided analysis and
prepare proposals for replacement of inadequate water lines, additional linking and
looping to improve the system for equitable/ balanced supply distribution to all service
areas.
Overdue study of the comparative analysis of water distribution system through water storage
tanks at water source / tubewell and water treatment plant (ground level and overhead reservoirs)
instead of direct pumping.

3.3.10 Water Supply Network:

Zoning of water supply distribution areas, evaluation of NRW level for each zone,
proposal for Pilot project for one water supply distribution zone. Each sub division will
be dealt as one zone with isolated water supply network.

i) Zoning of WASA Served areas into WASA Districts / Sub Districts with Isolated
Service Delivery Networks instead of Comprehensive Water Supply System as per
detailed requirements given in Section 3.3.10.1.

ii) Preparation of detailed engineering design/cost estimates for the whole district for
improvement of water supply system.

iii) Carryout network analysis and development of water supply computer model for
proposing implementable / feasible / operational sub division (zones) of Lahore
district for further examination. Each sub division / zone may be divided into metered
districts and sub districts.

 Each sub division / zone would comprise a number of District Management Areas
(DMAs) through which the supply of water, evaluation of losses and control on

15
 Preparation of Master Plans for water, wastewater and storm-water drainage

unaccounted for water (UFW) would be managed. The DMAs should have a size
between 2000 to 5000 water connections, further divided into sub DMAs.

 Design each water district keeping in view the following parameters for each water
district:

 Define the area and periphery of water districts.

 Define the O&M standards and procedures.
 Define the location of water district meters.
 Prepare functional and administrative scope for water districts working
and their interaction with WASA as a central command and control.

 The design of DMAs would include but not limited to:

 Proposal for existing OHRs in Lahore to make them functional and usable
in the planning horizon after studying and carrying out proper tests to
ensure their structural stability, proposal for new OHRs as per design
requirement, combination of OHRs with well centers and isolated wells
pumping into elevated storage feeding the distribution system.

 Proposals for re-structuring the network of isolated DMAs which could

easily be manageable, operative and maintainable.

 Mapping of network for isolated DMAs on GIS including location of flow

and pressure equipments etc.

 Proposal for leak detection and management programme.

 Proposals for 100% consumer and bulk water metering.

The consultant will analyze the financial sustainability of each zone. They will examine
the water balance of each zone i.e. water production vs water consumption and will
suggest remedial measure to improve the situation. The consultant will workout the cost
