Executive Summary
The Contract was signed by WSSCM and the Consultants on August 02, 2018, thus enabling the
formal launch of the inception phase activities. The teams were mobilized immediately after. Hiring
of field staff for the survey of assets was made through extensive interviews and 40 numbers of
Engineers/Sub Engineers were inducted by the last week of August 2018. The actual field survey
started on Sep 17, 2018.
A comprehensive baseline survey of the water, wastewater, and solid waste management systems
related assets was carried out in 39 Neighborhood Councils (NCs) and Sheikh Maltoon Township of
14 Union Councils (UCs) of Mardan covering an urban area of 31 sq. km. The data from this survey
presents the most comprehensive dataset generated on full physical identification and condition
verification of all above-ground assets related to the Water Supply System (WSS), Drainage and
Sewerage System (DSS) and Solid Waste Management System (SWM) of Mardan City within the
WSSCM jurisdiction. The purpose of the survey was to establish an efficient database of all relevant
assets for the service provider agencies which will enhance the operation and management
functions of the relevant departments in providing the required services to the citizens. The
database will not only serve as an asset register but also provide key information related to the
condition of the assets such as age, functionality, sizing, operational ownership, current condition,
and any constraints identified in the survey. The survey database can be utilized by the service
providers to make informed decisions on the current and future capital improvement projects
aimed at improving the key services in the water, wastewater, and solid waste management sectors
ultimately resulting in improved services to citizens.
The baseline survey was carried out by a well-trained team of engineers using effective data
collection tools including relevant proforma sheets developed for all relevant assets in coordination
with WSSCM. The tools also included integration into an MIS platform using android based
applications for field survey and GIS tools for data import and export purposes. The survey was
carried out over a period of 16 weeks and in total, 15 teams were mobilized across the Mardan City
which included 5 WSS Teams and 8 DSS and 2 SWM Survey Teams. Each team comprised of 2 field
surveyors who had measuring instruments, android devices and hard copy of high-resolution
Google maps of the targeted grids to be surveyed.
As per the signed agreement, 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th deliverables of the project have already been
submitted to the client (WSSCM). This report marks the submission of the last deliverable (5th
deliverable).
Component-wise summary of water supply, wastewater and solid waste management systems is
outlined on next pages.

A. Water Supply System
The water supply system assets surveyed and assessed included water supply networks, tube wells,
overhead reservoirs (OHR) and filtration plants (FP). The key service providers and agencies
responsible for water supply to residents in Mardan include WSSCM, Mardan Development
Authority (MDA), and PHED as they own and operate the various tube wells and associated water
supply networks in the city. Of the total 36 tube wells owned by WSSCM, 26 tube wells are
functional with 159 km transmission pipe line. Public Health Engineering Department (PHED)
constructed 36 tube wells along with pipeline network having length of 151 Km in Mardan urban
area in the period 2010-2012 but these are still non-functional due to various reasons. Mardan
development authority (MDA) operates and regulates the 11 existing tube wells in Sheikh Maltoon
town ship out of which 7 are functional that feeds the area in a close loop system. Of the total 83
tube wells, only 33 are functional. Of the total 372557 meters pipeline in the water supply network,
208057 meters is functional. The diameters of pipelines in water supply network range from 1 inch
to 12 inches. The age of the pipes in water supply network ranges from 7 years to 40 years. The
total number of residential household connections in the study area is estimated to be 10,742
against an estimated total household number of 60,212. This implies that 52,569 households are
without water connections. WSSCM and PHED has WS network of 159Km and 151Km respectively,
laid across the Mardan city. Most of WSSCM lines are functional and PHED lines are non-functional
except for few. There are total of 14 OHR in the study area and the capacity of the OHRs range from
50000 to 100000 gallons.. Out of the total 14 OHRs, 9 are functional and 4 are non-functional.
Condition grading was carried out and assigned to each OHR. Out of the 14 OHR, 50% are in good
condition, 21% are in fair condition, and 29% are in poor condition. Out of the total 15 FPs in the
survey area, 3 are functional and 12 are non-functional.
The current water supply situation in the city reveals deficiencies in both water quantity and
quality. There is a deficit in the water supply and water demand under both existing and future
projected years based on the current water available from the functional sources against the
required demand based on population and per capita consumption. The residents in most areas
surveyed complain of low pressures in the water supply as well as water quality from the various
sources. To meet this water deficit, there is a need to increase the source of water supply (tube
wells) in the overall service area. Detail capacity analysis of the functional tube wells shall be
carried out including hydraulic capacity and pumping head requirements to determine if these tube
wells can provide the required minimum pressure to end users. Hydraulic analysis should be
carried out in conjunction with water supply networks to determine the accurate head losses
occurring in the system compared to the total pump head available which will determine if the
pumps are capable of supplying the required flows to the remote areas of the network.
The non-functional tube wells shall be investigated to determine if these can be made functional
with minimum cost to address the demand deficit in various UCs. Tube wells with poor
civil/structural, electrical and mechanical conditions shall be addressed for the required
improvements. Pipes in close proximity to drains shall be studied and mitigation measures shall be
taken to ensure there is no cross connection of sewage from drains to pipelines as this is main
cause of contamination of drinking water. A comprehensive supply-demand analysis shall be
carried out in light of the projected future population and capacity of tube well-pipe network
3
system to determine how many households can be served by the current system. Accordingly, the
number of household and commercial connections in each UC shall be increased to meet the
demands of the communities in each UC. The age of the networks shall be considered in
determining the life of the pipelines. Very old and deteriorated pipelines shall be abandoned and
replaced accordingly.
The number of OHR should be increased. The existing OHR are not enough to serve the water
supply needs of the area. Also, there is no adequate pressure at end user. In case of failure of pump
or power supply, the water supply is unavailable for unknown time, so it is recommended to
provide OHR with the tube wells so that water supply is not interrupted. Also, the OHR can be a
source of supply during peak times when the pumps are not working. OHR in poor condition shall
be properly inspected for any chance of rehabilitation. Otherwise shall be demolished to avoid risk
of failure. Regular cleaning of OHRs is essential to maintain water quality. With regard to the FPs
in the survey area, there is a need to increase the number and capacity of the FPs to meet the
requirements of the residents in providing safe drinking water. Proper maintenance of the existing
FPs is required to keep the machinery in good condition.
B. Wastewater System
The existing drainage systems serving the WSSCM jurisdiction area is mostly combined systems
that convey domestic and commercial wastewater along with surface runoff during rain events. The
main components of the waste water system in Mardan include Drains, Trunk Sewers, Waste water
treatment plants (WWTPs), and disposal Outfalls. The trunk sewers are limited in number and are
functional.
The total length of the functional drains in the drainage system is 478 KM with Combined system
for wastewater and storm water of 379381 meters and Drains serving for wastewater only as
97198 meters. Drains are either constructed as covered or open drains with 15.91% of the drains
being covered and 84.09% as open drains. The shapes of drains vary from Rectangular, Semi-
Parabolic or Trapezoidal drains and their respective percentages are 84.33%, 0.25%and 10.70%.
The width of the drains varies from 0.5 ft to 30 ft. The material of the drains and walls consists of
PCC, brick, RCC, or Kacha drains. Of the total drains, 77.18% are made of PCC, 15.49% brick, 1.16%
RCC while 5.70% are Kacha Drains. Out of 478814-meter drains, 28.97% are flowing free with no
hindrances and 71.03% are flowing with partial flow.
The mode of outfall observed for the drains range from open fields, canals, and ravine areas. The
drains outfall to the fields in the urban area during rainy seasons which is creating inundation and
resulting in a lot of environmental and health related problems to the residents. Immediate
connectivity is required with other drains/ravine to provide relief to the residents. The survey
revealed that de-silting and cleaning of drains has not been carried out regularly which has resulted
in clogging of drains. Most of the residents throw their solid waste in drains resulting in clogging of
drains flow which require regular cleaning by WSSCM. There is need for intensive programs
through Nazims/media or other social organizations for public awareness and to encourage
residents to avoid throwing their solid waste into drains. The majority of the drains in poor/very
poor condition drains are in UC Bagh-e-Irum, Bijli Ghar, Baghdada, Dagai, Guli Bagh, Par Hoti, Rorya
and Sheikh Maltoon which require repair /rehabilitation.
4
The total length of sewer line laid across Mardan is 105744m with bulk of the sewer line located in
Sheikh Maltoon Township. Majority of the sewer in urban area of Mardan is unobservable because
the manholes are covered in concrete pavement or asphalt pavement. There are four networks of
sewer line laid in Mardan located in Dagai, Bicket Gunj, Bagh-e-Irum and Sheikh Maltoon. The age of
sewer line varies from 1 year to 40 years. The sewer dia varies from 9” to 48”. There are five trunk
sewers with 48” dia pipes that pass through different parts of Mardan.
There are two treatment plants in the survey area and both the treatment plants are not
operational due to various reasons. The reasons include technical deficiencies in the treatment
components, no-payment of electricity bills, and or other operation and management (O&M)
related issues faced by the staff. The WWTP situated near Rashakai should be made functional
immediately as all the sewage of Sheikh Maltoon Township is discharging into Rashakai drain,
thereby polluting the environment and is a health hazard. The plant can be made functional at
minimum cost as all the infrastructures have already been built. The treatment plant in Rorya
requires repair works of the ponds and can also be made functional without involving huge cost. If
proper sewerage system in the urban area is provided, this plant can cater for maximum area
needs.
The results of the survey and condition assessment reveal that a proper analysis of the wastewater
system including the hydraulic and hydrologic capacity analysis is required. Such an engineering
analysis will determine the capacity of the drains and trunk sewers against the wastewater and
storm water flow generated from the catchment areas and provides a framework for making
system-wide improvements including rehabilitation of the existing system as well as laying of new
wastewater networks and treatment facilities and outfall structures. It is important to not only have
functional collection and conveyance facilities (drains or trunk sewers) but also to ensure that the
wastewater and storm water generated, collected, and conveyed is properly treated and then
disposed to outfall areas in a safe and environmentally acceptable manner.
In Mardan city the garbage is either disposed by the people into the containers placed at designated
points or disposed to the secondary points (open areas) where available. The survey focused on
containers, secondary points (open areas), and dump sites. There are two types of containers in the
existing system, large container with 5m3 capacity and small container with 0.8m3 capacity.
Secondary Point/Moqa (Open area) is the point from where the garbage is collected by WSSCM staff
and disposed to dumping sites. Dump site is the final destination point where the solid waste is
disposed to. There are 14 number dump sites located in the middle of the dwellings in open area
while 14 numbers dump sites are located in Kalpani River.
In majority UCs the containers are not enough in numbers for the people to dispose the waste. They
dispose the waste in open areas which create pollution and health hazards. The collection and
lifting frequencies of containers are not frequent enough and as a result after the capacity limit is
reached people dispose the garbage in the vicinity of the container in open areas that are not
designated places for solid waste disposal. A capacity analysis was carried out to determine the
number of containers required based on the waste generation rates and it revealed that there is a
need for additional 188 and 869 new containers of capacity 5 m3 and 0.8 m3 respectively against
5
the existing 88 and 34 containers of capacity 5 m3 and 0.8 m3 respectively. The solid waste
management situation can be improved by providing the required number of containers with
proper collection and lifting of garbage from the designated sites.
All the dump sites require immediate shifting from the existing locations to a designated dump site
outside the urban area to save the people and environment from health hazards. The collection and
lifting frequency should be increased. If not collected on time, the disposed waste creates odor
problems leading to more serious environmental and health hazards for the residents. The teams
have observed that many local people don’t use the containers for waste dumping. Awareness is
necessary through public education and awareness campaigns

1.0. Introduction
1.1. Project Background
The Water and Sanitations Services Company Mardan (WSSCM) was established by the
Government of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (GoKP) in 2015 as an independent body to look after the
combined drinking water, sanitation and solid waste management services in the urban jurisdiction
of Mardan. Having taken over services in December 2016, WSSCM has been trusted with the goal of
“bringing sustained improvement in water and sanitation delivery to effectively address the basic
needs of citizens in Mardan”. The jurisdiction of WSSCM spreads over an urban area of 31 sq. km
covering 39 Neighborhood Councils (NCs) and Sheikh Maltoon Township.
WSSCM suffers from a lack of a baseline database of the assets it has inherited from its predecessor
organizations. This shortcoming directly affects WSSCM’s ability of handling its services and
responding to the needs of the sharply growing population. The current water and sanitation
situation of the region is fairly substandard and suffers from improper management of facilities and
utilities. This situation is worsened during the monsoon season as the drains become clogged and
rainwater builds up and remains stagnant for long periods, posing serious health hazards to the
public.
The importance of the water and sanitation sector is recognized by the Government of Khyber
Pakhtunkhwa which is striving to prioritize improvement in this area through policy initiatives
such as KP-Water Governance Program (KP-WGP). Under the umbrella of this program, a financial
assistance for the strengthening and improvement of WSSCM systems has been rendered by the
Swiss Development Corporation (SDC). Through this fund, the KP-WGP initiative aims to improve
governance, strengthen system and plug capacity gaps of WSSCM to allow for sustainable
operations and enhanced access to urban population.
“Development of Baseline” project was awarded to Associated in Development (AiD) Pvt. Ltd. on
August 2nd 2018 in response to WSSCM’s Call for Proposal to provide consultancy services for the
development of base line of its assets. The objectives of this assignment were:

2.0. Inception Phase
2.1. Overview of Activities
This section gives an overview of the key activities conducted in the inception phase.
1. Contract Signing and Assignment Duration: The Contract was signed by WSSCM and the
Consultants on August 02, 2018, thus enabling the formal launch of the inception phase
activities. The contract duration was six months which was effective from the award date of the
contract.
2. Team Mobilization: Based on the agreed mobilization schedule the senior management
including the Team leader (TL), GIS Expert and MIS Expert were immediately mobilized on Aug
02, 2018. This was followed by the mobilization of the Admin officer/Accounts. For hiring of
balance staff, AiD followed the timelines as agreed in the consultant’s project work plan (Refer
to Section 5.0 of Inception Report). The shortlisting for the balance staff was done and
interviews were scheduled on Aug 18, 2018 & Aug 19, 2018 followed by hiring of project staff in
the subsequent week.
3. Office Establishment: Immediately after contract signing, Team Leader was positioned in
the AID Regional office in Peshawar and designated office spaces were allocated for baseline
project staff. In parallel, an office space at AID Head Office in Islamabad was also designated for
project staff for the designing of inception phase activities, development of data collection tools,
project coordination meetings, etc. An admin officer located meeting space for field staff in
Mardan for daily/alternate day meetings. These meetings occupied a reasonable space prior to
start of field activities i.e. in the last week of Aug-2018.
4. Engagement with WSSCM, SDU and Other Stakeholders: Preliminary meetings were held
with WSSCM team on Aug 02, 2018 & Aug 10, 2018. The meeting with WSSCM and SDC staff was
also held in Islamabad AID Head Office on Aug 07, 2018. In addition, a meeting with TMA and
Project Director-Mardan Development Authority was also scheduled on Aug 02, 2018. In each
meeting with WSSCM/SDC, a presentation was made to highlight the overall objectives, project
processes, approval protocols and reporting systems. The meetings were aimed to collect the
secondary data and client’s consensus/approval on the data collection tools to be used in the
field during the baseline ground survey. An introductory field visit to sewerage treatment plant
in Mardan was also carried out by the Consultant’s Team Leader and General Manager-WSSCM
on Aug 10, 2018.
A dedicated workshop was organized on Aug 17, 2018 to share and discuss the assignment
work plan and present the final draft of asset assessment/inventory tools to brief the client on
the final project implementation strategy and gain formal approval. Recommendations from the
client were accordingly assimilated in the project start-up documentation.

3.0. Survey Design and Methods
The approach and methodology for conducting the baseline survey relied heavily on the lessons
learnt from past experiences of conducting baselines, infrastructure assessments, evaluations,
and qualitative and quantitative research studies.
1. Preparation of Pro-forma: The foremost requirement for the inception of the project was to
develop questionnaire for the survey. Individual pro-forma was designed for each asset. These
assets include Tube well, Water supply network, Overhead reservoir, Filtration plant, Drains,
Sewer line, Waste water plant, Vehicles, Tools and Garbage collection points. The questionnaire
for each asset was developed based on field condition, project objectives, scope of work and in
close consultation with WSSCM. Various modifications were incorporated in the pro-forma
based on the requirements of WSSCM besides development of asset pro-forma. The approved
questionnaire/survey tools for WSS, DSS and SWM system are attached as Annex 1, Annex 2 and
Annex 3.
2. Team Mobilization: Hiring of field staff for the survey of assets was made through extensive
interviews and 40 numbers of Engineers/Sub Engineers were hired.
3. Training of Field Staff: The training of the staff hired for the survey of different assets forms
the foundation for a quality output. A two-day training program was arranged in Peshawar to
explain different aspects of the project to the field staff followed by one week training in the
project area of WSSCM. The assets pro-forma was discussed in detail on the first day of training.
On the second day the MIS and GIS methodology was explained to the field staff for a better
coordination and understanding.
4. Management Information System (MIS): The pro forma were then used by MIS team to
develop an android based application for field survey. This application was used to fill the
questionnaire for each asset. The pro-forma created as a result was then saved in application
memory. The MIS team has also developed an online database for the storage of the data. The
data saved is then uploaded to the online database. The data is preserved in raw form in the
database. It can be exported into excel or text file in desired layout. The exported data was then
further used by GIS expert for developing maps of the assets.
5. Piloting/Testing: The piloting of the proposed methodology was made to assess the
accuracy of the results and the problems faced by the teams during piloting. All the teams were
mobilized to the study area and piloting for one week was conducted. After analyzing the data
recorded, necessary amendments were made to the methodology.
The survey protocols established in the inception phase, the assessment tools developed and
piloted during inception trainings steered the full-scale baseline field survey effort that spanned
over a period of 16 weeks. The baseline survey includes carpet coverage of all the above-ground
assets and a statistically viable sample of below-ground assets, identified in coordination with
the stakeholder’s team. Data has been collected for three distinct components of the project
defined in the TORs namely water supply network, sewerage and drainage network and solid
25
waste management systems. In general, the surveys aimed to collect data of all or some of the
information available regarding asset description, quantity, manufacturer information, assets
serial number assigned by the manufacturer, warranty coverage, warranty expiration date,
assets acquisition date, acquisition cost of the asset, date the asset was placed into service,
assets salvage value, assets useful life, depreciation method of current book value and assets’
physical location.
It is evident that the quality of the end product of this assignment will rely solely on the quality
and nature of the data collected. In this regard, survey approach revolved around the following
major principles to ensure execution of a high-quality data collection exercise:
In the first two weeks of the field activity, the field teams were tasked to collect the data on both
the MIS and hard copy formats. This ensured that no data is lost while the teams gained
familiarity with the software. Both sets of collected data were compared at the end of the day
and any issues reported. AiD’s MIS expert provided continuous technical assistance for software
related issues experienced during the field data collection phase.
The process flow of information and reporting protocols within the consultant’s team are
outlined in the field survey process flow diagram attached on the next page.
26
Figure 3.1: Field Survey Process Flow Diagram
27
The process flow diagram depicts the protocol established for accurate data compilation. In
total 15 teams were mobilized across the Mardan City which included 5 WSS Teams, 8 DSS
Survey Teams and 2 SWM Survey Teams. Each team comprised of 2 field surveyors who had
measuring instruments, android devices and hard copy of high-resolution Google maps of the
targeted grids to be surveyed on that particular day.
The first hand data from field monitors was scrutinized by the supervisor of that particular
component (WSS, DSS & SWM). If some inaccuracy was noted at 1st level of QC, the supervisors
reported it to the field survey team and forwarded the revised hard copies of maps to the team
located at AID Peshawar Office.
Led by the Project Team Leader, the received hard copies of maps were further reviewed by the
QA/QC Engineers. If found, the errors were directly reported to field survey team(s) and also
shared with field supervisors. The correspondence continued throughout till the end of field
survey activity. The 2nd Level QA/QC Team at AID Peshawar office sent only the “OK” hard
copies of field survey maps to the GIS Team based at AID Head Office (Islamabad).
The scanned copies of maps (Grid Survey Sheets) for WSS, Drainage System and Sewerage
System are attached as Annex 4, Annex 5 and Annex 6.
The GIS Team fitted the hard copy data into the GIS software and discrepancies were checked
with MIS Team and/or reported to Field Survey Team in case a revision was required. The GIS
Manager remained in continuous coordination with MIS Expert which allowed further
refinement of the collected data.
The detailed GIS Survey Approach and Methodology for condition assessment of all
assets/infrastructure is explained in this section. The below figure shows step-by-step
procedure for GIS mapping of WSSCM utility network:
28
Step 1: Existing Hard Copy Sketch/Drawing
Associates in Development (AID) has approched WSSCM, DC Mardan office, Tehsil Municipal
Administration (TMA) and other relvent departments for the collection of available secondary
data, maps and drawings/sketches. As a result, following secondary information was located in
hard copy format:
The hard copy information was further scanned and converted into picture format. Through
GIS, the picture was transfered to real world coordinate system using georefencing technique. A
first hand information was obtainned from the scanned maps. The topographic sheets and
City/District Guide Maps were obtained from Survey of Pakistan and were used in GIS for
identifying major city landmarks, roads and railway networks.

Important location
Already available Dust bin location
Road Name
An online Google map was prepared, coupled with Android device live location. The strategy
helped in avoiding redundancy in the field surveys and familiarity with the field survey area.
Immediately after the pilot phase, AID revised the strategy for collection of attributes
information through an online automated android application. The physical location of network
was managed by marking the network lines on the field survey sheet while an online android
app was used to record the assests information as per approved questionaaire. Android
application was designed to create a unique identification number (ID) for each asset recorded
in to the web based management information system. The local staff of WSSCM and PHED were
very helpful in accurately identifying the utility network especially the underground assets. All
point features i.e Tubewell, Overhead reservoir, Filtration plant, Garbage sites & etc were
collected using android GPS coordinates.
Invert Levels
For purposes of baseline, AID has recorded the invert level using following sources;
All above dataset depicts a similar topographic variation of the WSSCM service area. The depth
of each marked segment of drainage/sewerage at start and end points was recoreded by survey
team. In baseline study, the following approach was used to detremine the invert level
Invert level = Elevation from DEM – Depth of drain/sewer recorded by field monitor

available in picture format (.jpeg) followed by the conversion into geo-refrenced real world
coordinates system and finally overlaid onto the original Google Satellite basemap imagery.
GIS Dashboard (3rd Deliverable) has been shared with WSSCM team along with the source code.
The AID team is ready to assist WSSCM while hosting and deployment process and will provide
training as and when needed.
31
3.4. Methodology for Development of Asset Management System (AMS)
The Asset Management System in WSSCM was developed using the following methodology:
Development of
Mobile App and AMS
Capacity Building of
Data Cleansing of AMS
WSSCM staff
1. Development of Mobile app and AMS: Mobile app was developed on the basis of final
profomas for each category of assets and used in offline mode into the field which
eliminates the network issues immidiately after the pilot run. Collected data through
mobile app was transfered to asset management system.
2. Collection of major attributes of data: The major attributes of each asset were
collected using a mobile application. The major attributes of data information were
based on the approved questionnarie by the WSSCM. The pictures of surveyed assets
were recorded using android applicaion.
3. Data Cleanising of AMS: Assets sheets will be generated through AMS and will be
circulated to all the offices of WSSCM for making necessary corrections and updation of
assets data in ASM.
4. Capacity Building of WSSCM staff: The capacity building session for the relevant users
of the system in WSSCM will be conducted by AID. Moreover, detailed training sessions
32
will also be conducted at WSSCM and hands on trainings will be conducted for the
capacity building of WSSCM relevant staff.
5. Decision making tool for management: The AMS is proved as a vital tool for decision
making for the top management of WSSCM. The assets reports will be generated
through AMS and will be used for the repair, replacement and upgradation of assets.
The Asset Inventory System i.e. the MIS database (4th deliverable) has been shared with
WSSCM. The AID team is ready to assist WSSCM while hosting and deployment process and will
provide training as and when needed.
The data analysis activities overlapped with the data collection exercise. Field data being readily
transmitted to the project office via the android-based Management Information System (MIS)
was simultaneously analyzed, organized and inserted in the Google earth based GIS database as
well as the open-source detailed inventory of assets. The GIS database and inventory were
linked to provide real-time updating of data and easy-access for the end-user. The inventory
database was developed to respond to data queries and has a user-friendly interface
highlighting the most relevant information upfront. It also has the flexibility to allow for any
modifications or editing in response to future needs. The inventory database maintains the list
of all assets with all relevant information as per the requirements of the TORs.
The analysis includes the condition assessment and valuation of all the existing assets related to
WSS, DSS & SWM and is detailed as follows:
Basic information on water supply network, tube wells, overhead reservoirs and filtration plant
and their conditions were assessed based on guidelines provided by WSSCM. The data was
collected by five (5) number of professional Engineering teams in the designated area under
survey. Each team consisted of one (1) Field Engineer and one (1) Support Engineer.
There are 15 No. distribution networks serving the study area independently. The distribution
system in the entire urban area is old and does not supply adequate water to the end users
except Sheikh Maltoon Township. Multiple tube wells supply water to independent networks
that also serves the areas of adjacent UC. Water shortage issues were addressed by adding
parallel pipelines to the primary system without studying the hydraulic requirements or
33
assessing the transmission or production capability of the system. Such add-ons without proper
planning or hydraulic considerations have made the whole system operate very inefficiently.
The consumers do not get sufficient water and they fulfill their needs from dug wells/self-bores
or booster pumps installed in their houses. Some pipes have been installed above the ground,
across the open drains without sleeve protection which has made these pipelines susceptible to
contamination from wastewater. The other main reason as informed by the locals in some areas
is that the existing TMA water supply line is 30 to 40 years old and its water is of very poor
quality so they prefer their own dug well water. They also complain that a huge network of
water supply was laid along with 34 No. of tube wells in the entire city in 2010-2012 by PHED
but the network is lying idle since then due to administrative and financial issues.
There are 36 tube wells owned by WSSCM, 26 tube wells are functional with 156 km
transmission pipe line and the remaining 10 tube wells are either completely abandoned
or have other technical problems.
In 2010-2012 Public Health Engineering Department (PHED) executed a Megaproject of
36 tube wells along with pipeline network having length of 151Km in Mardan urban
area and these are still non-functional up till now.
Mardan development authority (MDA) operates and regulates the existing tube wells in
Sheikh Maltoon town ship. There are 11 tube wells out of which 7 are functional that
feeds the area in a close loop system.

The future projected (Year: 2023) water demand and demand deficit for each UC is summarized
in Table 4.4 based on the 2023 population given above.
Table 4.4: Future (2023) Water Availability and Demand Analysis in each UC
The current population in 2018 of the urban area is 481,696 and the projected population after
5 years is 574,319 in year 2023 (See: Table 4.2).
If we take the daily demand based on 204 lit/capita/day (lpcd), then the current population
requirement will be 98,266 m3/day (204 lit/cap/day is the ultimate target of WSSCM).
The average production of each tube well is 0.013 m3/sec. The available water from the
functional 26 tube wells is 12,127 m3/day (per 10 hours), which is 25 lpcd. The deficit in daily
demand is 86139 m3/day.
In the current situation, the deficit in urban area can be overcome by providing additional 186
tube wells (See: table 3.5). Out of proposed 186 tube wells, 50 non-functional tube wells are
available, out of which 10, 36 and 4 are of WSSCM, PHED and MDA respectively. Ignoring the 4
number tube wells of MDA, this implies that 46 number of Tube wells can be made available and
therefore a total of further 140 new tube wells are required to provide 204 lpcd to the residents
under the 2018 demand conditions.
40
Table 4.5: Tube wells required under Current Demand Deficit (2018)
In the future conditions (2023), the number of tube wells required is derived in Table 4.6 below.

4.1.3.2. Water Supply Network
Most of the pipelines in the water supply networks appear to be buried in the pavements or
roads and streets. Therefore, it was difficult to judge the availability and condition of the pipe
segment in the street or road. To obtain accurate data, Assistant Manager WSSCM provided the
relevant staff to guide AID teams. Under the guidance of WSSCM field staff, AID field survey
teams collected the information of pipelines that weren’t observable.
Length of Pipelines
The following Table 4.13 shows the WS network length of each union council. These values are
obtained as a result of combined effort of field staff and GIS team. The field surveyors had drawn
the WS lines on hardcopy of survey sheets. The hardcopy sheets were then geo-referenced in
ArcGIS and the lines on those sheets were digitized by GIS team. As a result, accurate network
lengths have been obtained on map.

4.2. Waste Water System
Basic information on drains, sewers, wastewater treatment plants and outfall structures and
their conditions was assessed based on guidelines provided by WSSCM. The data was collected
by eight (8) number of professional Engineering teams in the designated area under survey.
Each team consisted of one (1) Field Engineer and one (1) Support Engineer.
The existing drainage systems serving the WSSCM jurisdiction area are mostly a combined
system that conveys domestic and commercial wastewater along with surface runoff during rain
events.
Drains - Wastewater is mostly conveyed by open or covered drains except for a very small
portion of the system that is being served by underground sewers. The drains serve as the
primary, secondary and tertiary (collection) conveyance and collection segments through most
of the study area. The cross-section of the primary and secondary drains are mostly rectangular
and trapezoidal in limited numbers and mostly constructed in PCC and brick masonry with
plaster facing inside.
Trunk Sewers - Trunk sewers that were built to convey flows from the tertiary / secondary
system segments are mostly clogged and their manholes, after being used as a repository for
solid waste, are not currently physically visible on the ground except for few lines. Most of such
sewerage system is currently out of use due to their continuous neglect and poor maintenance.
Wastewater Treatment Plants (WWTPs) - The existing two wastewater treatment plants
(WWTP) within the jurisdiction are not operational. Therefore, the wastewater flow from the
city is being directly discharged into, irrigation canals, ravines, khawars, agricultural land and
rivers, thereby polluting the environment and inflicting health hazards.
Outfall Structures - The outfall discharge points of the sewers and drains do not have properly
designed structures and are connected to the receiving water bodies through haphazard
unlined kacha or very poor pacca sections. The main receiving body of the wastewater is
Kalpani that passes through the study area and discharge into agricultural fields and River
Kabul thus causing environmental destruction and health hazards.

Material of Drains: The material of the drains and walls consists of PCC, brick, RCC, or Kacha (unlined) drains. Of the total drains, 77% are
made of PCC, 15% brick, 1% RCC while 6% are Kacha Drains. A breakdown of the drains with respect to the material used in the construction
of drains in each UC is provided in Table 4.35 and Figure 4.27.
101
Figure 4.27: Material of Drains in each UC
102
Kacha drains require immediate construction as it is also a source of inundation during rainy
season and badly affect the stability of adjacent roads and buildings foundation
Drain Classification by Flow: Drains have either full flow or partial flow which impacts
it’s functioning for the intended purpose of conveying the sewerage and/or storm water
flows to the receiving water bodies or treatment plants.
Out of 487,985-meter drains, 29% is free flow (i.e. flow without any hindrances) while
71% is partial flow. Although none of the drains are completely blocked, the survey
shows that de-silting and cleaning of drains has not been carried out regularly which has
resulted in substantial clogging of drains. Most of the residents throw their solid waste
in drains resulting in clogging of drains flow which require regular cleaning by WSSCM.
There is need for intensive programs through Nazims/media or other social
organizations for public awareness and to encourage residents to avoid throwing their
solid waste into drains.
A breakdown of the drains with respect to the flow classification in each UC is provided
in Table 4.36 and Figure 4.28.
103
Figure 4.28: Drain Classification according to Flow Type
104
Mode of Outfall for the Drains: The mode of outfall observed for the drains range from
open fields, canals, and ravine areas. The drains outfall to the fields in the urban area
during rainy seasons which is creating inundation and resulting in a lot of
environmental and health related problems to the residents. Immediate connectivity is
required with other drains/ravine to provide relief to the residents.
A breakdown of the drains with respect to the mode of outfall in each UC is provided in
Table 4.37 and Figure 4.29.

Encroachment on Drains: There are 4% Encroachments in the entire city but some
UCs like Bagh-e-Irum, Dagai, Mardan Khas, Muslim Abad and Rorya have more
encroachments. The current drive by the Government for removal of encroachments is
the best opportunity available for its removal.

4.2.2.2. Sewers
The total length of sewer line laid across Mardan is 84548m with bulk of the sewer line located
in Sheikh Maltoon Township. Majority of the sewer in urban area of Mardan is unobservable
because the manholes are covered in concrete pavement or asphalt pavement. There are four
networks of sewer line laid in Mardan located in Dagai, Bicket Gunj, Bagh-e-Irum and Sheikh
Maltoon. The age of sewer line varies from 1 year to 35 years. The sewer diameter varies from
9” to 48”.
There are five trunk sewers with 48” dia pipes that passes through different parts of Mardan as
explained below:
i. One trunk sewer originates from New Adda Bijli Ghar passing through Bagh-e-Irum,
Sheikh Maltoon, industrial state and terminates at Murdara Kandha Rashakai with total
length of 6578m
ii. Second trunk sewer start from College Chowk passes through Shamsi road, taking turn
from Chato Chowk and falls at Rorya WWTP with total length of 4580m
iii. Third originates from Dang baba Hoti and terminates at Kalpani with total length of
1000m
iv. Fourth one is located in Sikandari and falls into Kalpani.
v. Fifth is located in Dagai and falls in Kalpani

4.2.2.3. Waste Water Treatment Plants (WWTP)
Provision of drains and underground sewers along the streets and roads to dispose of sewage
away from the urban areas is equally significant in creating a clean and healthy environment in
the city. Mardan abounds in natural streams and manmade irrigation channels flowing through
the city and its suburbs and these streams and channels are currently being used for the
disposal of raw sewage generated in the city, thereby polluting city environment. Sewage
treatment is a step by step removal of pollutants contained in the sewage until the required
effluent discharge standards are met. In Pakistan, National Environmental Quality Standards
(NEQS) defines the standards to be met for discharging sewage in the natural water bodies with
Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD), Chemical oxygen Demand (COD) and Total Suspended
Solids (TSS) as the priority parameters governing the municipal sewage with discharge limits of
80 mg/l, 150 mg/l and 150 mg/l respectively.
Treatment Technology: The technology used for treatment of sewage is basic and
simple technology based on the natural process. The information was gathered from the
personnel responsible for the execution of the plant. The sewage is retained in series
ponds for certain period of time and natural degradation helps to consume the harmful
content by microbes. Microbe is a microscopic organism and can be multicellular or
single celled and include bacteria, protozoa and some fungi and algae. Microbe can be
found in every type of environment and play a crucial role in system. This is the same
technology used in homes for sewage treatment called septic tank and soakage pit but
with difference of size, use of oxygen and sunshine.
Sewage enters first pond called anaerobic pond. Here it stays for seven days. After seven
days it overflows to second aerobic series ponds called facultative ponds. After 13 days
with the facultative pond overflows, it enters maturation pond. In this manner the
sewage is treated and discharges out to the adjacent drains. Its most dangerous contents
are removed by the microbes and heavy content settle down to the bottom of the ponds.
Sludge accumulated at the bed of the ponds has to be removed once in five to six years
Number of WWTPs in Mardan: There are two waste water treatment plants in Mardan
which were provided to achieve the above standards but since completion, these have
been non-operational due to various reasons as detailed below.
1. Rorya WWTP: This treatment plant is situated in union council Rorya. The main components
of the plant are settling channel, screen bars, pump house, three (03) anaerobic ponds and two
(02) aerobic ponds in series. Screen bars and settling channels have been provided for primary
treatments to remove large solids, grit, grease and silt from the raw sewage in order to prevent
mechanical damage or blockages to pumps. Schematic layout of the Rorya Mistriabad WWTP is
given in Figure 4.38 on next page.
124
*Note: All Dimensions are in Feet in above AutoCAD drawing.
125
The existing screen bars are damaged and are in poor condition. Pump house contain four
pumps of 30 horse power each and are in good condition. 100 KVA transformer is available at
site in good condition. Waste water treatment office and guard house are also available at site.
The anaerobic ponds have proper lining and are in fair condition. The plant was operational for
almost 4 years after its execution (1998-99). Later due to unpaid electricity bills for a long
duration of time the plant became non-functional due to non-availability of electricity.
2. Rashakai WWTP: This treatment plant is located near Rashakai interchange. Pump house is
available but without any pump installed. Aeration tank is available without any blowers
installed. There are two anaerobic ponds in series and two large size aerobic ponds in parallel.
There are no pipes connecting various ponds with each other and with the aeration tank.
Though proper sewer network is laid in Sheikh Maltoon Township along with trunk sewer
falling in Murdara Kandha near the WWTP, this plant is non-operational because of non-
availability of pump house, connecting pipes, and the inflow structures. WWTP office and guard
house are available in good condition without furniture. This plant was constructed in 1988.
Schematic layout of the Rashakai WWTP is given in Figure 4.39 on next page.

4.3. Solid Waste Management (SWM) Systems
The solid waste survey was conducted by 2 teams with each team carrying out the survey in 3 UCs.
The teams surveyed all secondary points (open area) of waste disposal and containers along with
dump sites in the presence and guidance of supervisors of solid waste department at WSSCM to
help the survey teams.
A summary of the existing situation of solid waste system in the study area is given in Table 4.47
below which provides the number of containers, secondary points, and dump sites identified during
the survey in each UC.

4.3.2. Garbage Collection Points
In Mardan city, people dispose garbage either into the containers placed at designated points or
straight to the secondary points (open areas) where available. The garbage is collected from these
two main points (containers, secondary points) and disposed of at dump sites and therefore, the
survey focused on the following categories:
Container: There are two types of containers; large containers with 5m3 capacity and small
containers with 0.8m3 capacities. The location coordinates of each container were
determined and the capacity and condition of the same were assessed.
Secondary Point (Open Area): Secondary point is also locally called “Moqa”. Moqa is the
point from where the garbage is collected by WSSCM staff and disposed to dumping sites.
Dump Site: Dump site is the final destination point where the solid waste is disposed of.
Figure 4.40 on next page shows the location of garbage collection points in Mardan.

135
B. Secondary Points
Figure 4.44 shows the secondary points (sites where garbage was found) that have been cleared by
WSSCM.
136
C. Dump Sites
There are 28 dump sites out of which 11, 6 and 3 are in Dagai, Sikandari and Rorya respectively. 14
numbers dump sites are in Kalpani River. The waste from these sites end up in river Kabul and
eventually discharge into irrigation canals and ends up on agricultural land which exacerbates the
environmental and public health crisis.
In UC Dagai, there is only 1 container while 26 secondary points are located. A total of 11 dump
sites are identified. This UC requires special attention as there are 11 points where the garbage is
accumulating without being disposed of. Such a situation creates environmental hazards and can
lead to pollution and health risks for the residents of the UC.
In Sheikh Maltoon, the solid waste is collected through primary collection. This is a daily door to
door collection via donkey carts and the waste is carried to a dump site outside Sheikh Maltoon.
There is no secondary point or container and the area is free of all kind of solid waste. The system
of cleaning the area through donkey carts is satisfactory.
The A0 sized large scale map of all Garbage Collection Points is attached as Annex 12 of this report.
There are multi-purpose vehicles and machineries with WSSC Mardan. Each of them has different
capacities of doing work regarding their engine power. For e.g. some vehicles carry 0.8 m3
containers while other carry 5 m3 container of garbage.
On the basis of age, WSSCM have vehicles ranges from 1960’s up to 2018. There are total 44
numbers of Vehicles/Machinery with WSSCM. Out of which 28 are received from TMA while
remaining 16 have been purchased by WSSCM itself in the year 2017/18.
Solid waste automobiles have been divided into two categories on the basis of their working,
“Vehicles” and “Machinery”. Vehicles are used for garbage collection, sanitation, water supply
purpose and pool vehicles, while machinery like sweepers and jetting machine are used to collect
dust, small particles of debris and for clearance of sewer lines respectively.
Details and conditions of all sanitation vehicles are given in Tables 4.50, 4.51 and 4.52.

5.0. Summary of Survey Findings and Recommendations
A summary of the overall condition assessment of all assets (of WSS, DSS & SWM) and their analysis
based on the baseline survey is briefed in this section.
83 tube wells are located in Mardan city and Sheikh Maltoon and the distribution is as follows:
WSSCM: 36
MDA: 11
PHED: 36
The total number of functional tube wells in the study area is 33 of which the distribution is:
WSSCM: 26
MDA: 7
PHED: 0
The age of the functional tube wells range from 1 to 45 years.
The underground data from WSSCM and TMA was not available as there was no document or
log sheet made available to us to ascertain the underground bore hole, strainer and water table.
Mardan development authority (MDA) operates and regulates the existing tube wells in Sheikh
Maltoon town ship. There are 11 tube wells out of which 7 are functional that feeds the area in a
close loop system.
The total population estimated in 2018 and 2023 is 481696 and 574319 respectively.
The total water availability based on the functional tube wells is 12127 m3/d whereas the total
water demand based on 204 lpcd is 98,266 m3/d. This means the water deficit in 2018 and
2023 is 86,139 m3/d and 105,035 m3/d respectively.
The water deficit range from 75% to 100% in the various UCs.
Generally, it has been observed that the structure of the pump house of 90% tube wells is in
good condition. Submersible pumps are used for pumping water to consumers. As the tube
wells aren’t used since its construction, in most of the cases the top set is in good condition. In
some cases, the inside of the pump house was found full of dirt and dust.
In some UCs it has been observed that WSSCM tube well are not available whereas several
PHED newly constructed tube wells are available but non-functional. In Par Hoti, Guli Bagh and
Rorya the people are suffering from unavailability of water. In these areas if the PHED tube
wells are utilized according to demand then it will benefit the inhabitants.
Based on the physical condition survey and grading assessment, the percentage of tune wells in
very good, good, fair, poor and very poor conditions is as follows:
Very Good: 14%
Good: 59%
Fair: 18%
Poor: 5%
148
Very Poor: 4%
In some cases, the locals have reported complains about their land being occupied by the non-
functional tube well.
Detail capacity analysis of the functional tube wells shall be carried out including hydraulic
capacity and pumping head requirements to determine if these tube wells can provide the
required minimum pressure to end users. It should be noted that hydraulic analysis and
detailed capacity analysis is not part of this baseline survey and conditions assessment scope of
work as per the TOR. Hydraulic analysis shall be carried out in conjunction with water supply
networks to determine the accurate head losses occurring in the system compared to the total
pump head available which will determine if the pumps are capable of supplying the required
flows to the remote areas of the network.
The non-functional tube wells shall be investigated to determine if these can be made functional
with minimum cost to address the demand deficit in various UCs.
Tube wells with poor civil/structural, electrical and mechanical conditions shall be addressed
for the required improvements.
Total length of pipelines in water supply network is 369.352 KM with the following
distribution:
MDA: 61.686Km
PHED: 151.712 Km
WSSCM: 159.159 Km
The total length of functional pipeline in the water supply network is 208.057 KM with the
following distribution:
MDA: 60.545 Km
PHED: 2.986 Km
WSSCM: 147.318 Km
The diameter of pipelines in water supply network range from 1 inch to 12 inches.
The pipe material in water supply network includes HDPE, RCC, Asbestos, and GI.
The age of the pipes in water supply network cannot be ranged due to unavailability of data.
Pipelines are either above ground or below ground with the following distribution:
149
Pipeline above ground: 13.560 Km
Pipeline below ground: 358.998 Km
The physical condition of the pipelines in the water supply network was assessed and ranked as
being very good, good, fair, poor or very poor with the following distribution:
Very Good: 0.52 %
Good: 61.3 %
Fair: 4.52 %
Poor: 4.30 %
Very Poor: 2.88 %
The total number of residential household connections in the study area is estimated to be
7,643 against an estimated total household number of 60,212. This implies that 52569
households are without water connections. The UC wise projected population of 2018 and
household size of 8 has been taken to numerate the current households. The numbers indicate
huge gap in the current demand and supply situation. This gap can be minimized immediately
by making the PHED lines and tube wells functional.
The survey teams interviewed the households in each union council in regard to availability of
water, as well as their perceptions, demand and needs for the water. Also, the information was
collected about water quality, its availability and satisfaction level of people. There are concerns
in the communities about bot the availability of water as well as water quality.
There are two water supply systems in Mardan city. One is owned by public health engineering
department (PHED) which was constructed in 2010-2012 and is in good condition but mostly
non-functional. While the other system is around 45 years old and in poor condition. It was
handed over by Tehsil Municipal Authority (TMA) to WSSCM in the year 2016. The people are
hesitant to use the WSSCM system water due to poor quality. Secondly, the water is not
sufficient enough to fulfill their daily demand.
WSSCM and PHED has WS network of 159Km and 151Km respectively, laid across the Mardan
city. Most of WSSCM lines are functional and PHED lines are non-functional except for few.
PHED WS lines are provided in all urban UCs except Bari Cham and Bicket Gunj. The WSSCM WS
lines are also laid in all UCs except Par Hoti, Sikandari and Rorya.
Reasons for non-functional Pipeline Network
(i) New Pipeline (connections not allotted)
(ii) Self-bore in 90% households
(iii) Broken/damaged pipes
(iv) Missing/Stolen pipes
(v) Pressure problem at end user
(vi) Installation of pumps
Most of the water is not potable because of high contamination. This contamination is caused
due to poor condition of old pipeline. Public Health Department (PHED) constructed new
network in whole Mardan but most of it is non-functional. The water quality can be improved
by using Public Health line instead of using old WSSCM line.
150
Total tube wells are 83 in which 33 are functional and the remaining are not in use. It is
recommended to focus on the existing non-functional tube wells which are overall in good
condition and make them functional according to the needs of the area after ensuring quality of
water. This will help in overcoming the high demand of water of Mardan city.
For the networks that are functional, a proper hydraulic assessment of the capacity shall be
carried out in conjunction with the relevant tube wells and associated pumping heads to
determine if these can serve all the end users. Such a comprehensive hydraulic assessment will
determine the overall functional use of the tube wells and networks as one unit.
Pipes in close proximity to drains shall be studied and mitigation measures shall be taken to
ensure there is no cross connection of sewage from drains to pipelines as this is main cause of
contamination of drinking water.
A comprehensive supply-demand analysis shall be carried out in light of the projected future
population and capacity of tube well-pipe network system to determine how many households
can be served by the current system. Accordingly, the number of household and commercial
connections in each UC shall be increased to meet the demands of the communities in each UC.
The age of the networks shall be considered in determining the life of the pipelines. Very old
and deteriorated pipelines shall be abandoned and replaced accordingly.
OHRs are provided as storage to equalize hourly variations in water demand, limit fluctuations and
pressure across the system and provide reserve storage during power outage or other emergencies.
It supports the water demand in peak hours. During the observations, it was found that 11 numbers
OHR are between the age limit of 30 and 45 years and two numbers are 15 and 23 years old.
Originally these OHRs were provided as per design and with the passage of time the population
increased and haphazard additions of tube wells were made to the system and without any addition
of OHRs or any proper design consideration, which made the system resultantly inefficient. These
OHR are used to provide enhanced pressure to limited tail-end consumers and are used in peak
hours.
Table 5.2 shows the condition rating of OHRs in all 14 UCs and Sheikh Maltoon Township of Mardan
city.

The existing overhead reservoirs (OHRs) require high level maintenance. Seepage and
leakage should be controlled as it will further deteriorate the structure and corrode the
steel exposed.
The number of OHR should be increased. The existing OHR are not enough to serve the
water supply needs of the area. Also there is no adequate pressure at end user. In case of
failure of pump or power supply, the water supply is unavailable for unknown time, so it is
recommended to provide OHR with the tube wells so that water supply is not interrupted.
Also, the OHR can be a source of supply during peak times when the pumps are not working.
OHR in poor condition shall be properly inspected for any chance of rehabilitation.
Otherwise shall be demolished to avoid risk of failure.
Regular cleaning of OHRs is essential to maintain water quality.
The installed filtration plants are either not functional or not enough in number to serve the
demand of Mardan city. Also, there is no power supply in some filtration plants while in others
some main components are missing.
152
The current filtration plants are in custody of CDWA which require to be taken over from them so that it could be made functional with
proper repair and maintenance.
153
5.1.4.1. Recommendations for FPs
The water quality according to the locals is of poor quality in most of the areas. Filtration
plants can be utilized to address this problem. If filtration plants can be made functional and
working as per design requirements, these can serve the residents and will improve the
quality of water resulting in satisfaction of residents and less health-related problems.
Proper repair and maintenance are required to operate the existing filtration plants and to
supply water as per WHO water quality guidelines.
The UCs like Kas Koroona, Hoti, Par Hoti and Sikandari should be targeted as first priority to
make sure supply of clean and potable water to the residents.
The number of filtration plants should be increased to get maximum benefits.
The dispute among local people and government related to FPs should be resolved.
The capacity of filtration should be enhanced.
After making them functional the filtered water must be tested via Physiochemical and
Bacteriological Tests to make sure the quality of water is according to WHO guide line.
Missing machinery or component should be provided to make the plants operational.
The summary and conclusions of the baseline survey and condition assessment related to
wastewater system in Mardan is summarized as follows:
The existing drainage systems serving the WSSCM jurisdiction area are mostly combined
systems that convey domestic and commercial wastewater along with surface runoff during
rain events. The following are the main components of the waste water system in Mardan:
Drains
Trunk Sewers
Waste water treatment plants (WWTPs)
The trunk sewers are limited in number and mostly abandoned and serving as sites for solid
waste disposal.
The total length of the functional drains in the drainage system is 478 KM with the following
breakdown with respect to the mode of operation:
Combined system serving for wastewater and storm water = 379381 meters which
79.23% of the system.
Drains serving for wastewater only = 97198 meters which is 20.30% of the system
Drains serving for storm water only = 0 meters
Drains are either constructed as covered or open drains. 15.91% of the drains are covered
and 84.09% are open drains.
Drains are either Rectangular, semi parabolic or Trapezoidal drains and their respective
percentages are 84.33%, 0.25%and 10.70%.
The width of the drains varies from 0.5 ft to 30 ft.
The material of the drains and walls consists of PCC, brick, RCC, or Kacha drains. Of the total
drains, 77.18% are made of PCC, 15.49% brick, 1.16% RCC while 5.70% are Kacha Drains.
154
Kacha drains require immediate construction as it is also a source of inundation during
rainy season and badly affect the stability of adjacent roads and buildings foundation.
Drains are either blocked, have full flow or partial flow which impacts its functioning for the
intended purpose of conveying the sewerage and/or storm water flows to the receiving
water bodies or treatment plants.
Out of 478,814-meter drains, 28.97% is free flow while 71.03% is partial flow.
The survey revealed that de-silting and cleaning of drains has not been carried out regularly
which has resulted in clogging of drains. Most of the residents throw their solid waste in
drains resulting in clogging of drains flow which require regular cleaning by WSSCM. There
is need for intensive programs through Nazims/media or other social organizations for
public awareness and to encourage residents to avoid throwing their solid waste into
drains.
The mode of outfall observed for the drains range from open fields, canals, and ravine areas.
The drains outfall to the fields in the urban area during rainy seasons which is creating
inundation and resulting in a lot of environmental and health related problems to the
residents. Immediate connectivity is required with other drains/ravine to provide relief to
the residents.
There are 4.32% Encroachments in the entire city but some UCs like Bagh-e-Irum, Dagai,
Mardan Khas, Muslim Abad and Rorya have more encroachments. The current drive by the
Government for removal of encroachments is the best opportunity available for its removal.
The survey found that most of the drains are not damaged with only 4.45% damaged drains
that require immediate reconstruction.
The overall physical condition of the drains is good with the following breakdown in terms
of condition rating:
2% Very Good
50% Good
31% Fair
8% Poor
4% Very Poor
Maximum of the poor/very poor condition drains are in UC Bagh-e-Irum, Bijli Ghar,
Baghdada, Dagai, Guli Bagh, Par Hoti, Rorya and Sheikh Maltoon which require repair
/rehabilitation.
Both the treatment plants in Mardan are not operational due to various reasons. The
reasons include technical deficiencies in the treatment components, no-payment of
electricity bills, and or other operation and management (O&M) related issues faced by the
staff.
The current site of both waste water treatment plant (WWTP) are situated in low laying
area and the sewage of the area can be easily discharged in to it.
Both the WWTP sites are fairly isolated from the built-up area and proper measure can be
taken to provide adequate space around the site to serve as buffer zone. Further area can
also be acquired to meet the future projected demand at reasonable cost.
The WWTP situated near Rashakai should be made functional immediately as all the sewage
of Sheikh Maltoon town ship is discharging into Rashakai drain, thereby polluting the
155
environment and is a health hazard. The plant can be made functional at minimum cost as
all the infrastructures have already been built.
The treatment plant in Rorya requires repair works of the ponds and can also be made
functional without involving huge cost. If proper sewerage system in the urban area is
provided, this plant can cater for maximum area needs.
In majority UCs the containers are not enough in numbers to take the daily load of Solid Waste
generated. People dispose the waste in open areas which creates pollution and health hazards. The
collection and lifting frequencies of containers are not frequent enough and as a result after the
capacity limit is reached people dispose the garbage in the vicinity of the container in open areas
that are not designated places for solid waste disposal. A capacity analysis was carried out from the
lifting frequency in the database and also from the field to determine the number of containers
required based on the waste generation rates and summary of this analysis is given in Table 5.4 and
Table 5.5 below.

5.3.1. Recommendations on Collection and Disposal
The dump sites are spread over the entire jurisdiction of WSSCM. There are 14 number
dump sites located in the middle of the dwellings in open area while 14 numbers dump sites
are located in Kalpani River. All the dump sites require immediate shifting from the existing
locations to a designated dump site outside the urban area to save the people and
environment from health hazards.
The solid waste management situation can be improved by providing the required number
of containers with proper collection and lifting of garbage from the designated sites.
The current containers are not enough so it is suggested to use more containers and
designate them to densely populated areas as per the requirements.
The collection and lifting frequency should be increased. If not collected on time, the
disposed waste creates odor problems leading to more serious environmental and health
hazards for the residents.
The teams have observed that many local people don’t use the containers for waste
dumping. Awareness is necessary through public education and awareness campaigns.
