2-2-4 Implementation Plan

2-2-4-1 Implementation Policy

The Phases II Project aims at rehabilitation/improvement of Bemos raw water main which has
been damaged by the recent floods and a full renovation of the Lower Service Reservoir of Bemos
Water Treatment Plant. Through the said rehabilitation/improvement, it is expected that those water
work facilities such as intake facilities, raw water main and water treatment facilities ever constructed
under the previous grant aid project may maintain the function stably to be utilized efficiently in the
future.

DNSAS is the implementing agency of the project and the project is to be implemented within
the framework of the grant aid system of the government of Japan. In case if the implementation of the
subject project would be approved by the government of Japan after the due completion of the
Implementation Review study, an Exchange of Note (E/N) be got through between the governments of
two countries and the project will enter into its implementation stage. Under the project
implementation, a single package contract manner will be adopted.

2-2-4-1-1 Construction Policy

(1) Access Road (For construction)

The portions/sections to be rehabilitated under the project are scattered over about 7 km distance
from the Bemos intake weir to the treatment plant. From the city area of Dili to the treatment plant, it
is accessible by public roads but there is no road available to access further upstream area. It is
necessary to transport the required equipment/materials to the working sites of rehabilitation, therefore,
policy is decided to provide access roads for construction on the lower river water channel and terrace.

From Bemos treatment plant to the confluence point with Bemos river, the water channel of
Comoro river can be used as access road with having some leveling works. While for the Bemos river
portion, river terraces on both right and left banks will be availed for access as much as possible. In
case if the leveling work alone can not make it passable, then about 0.3 m of embankment will be
provided with gravel pavement. For the sections where no temporary access road on the river terraces
could be made, the road will be planned at the lower water channel with embankment work of 0.5-1.0
m paved by gravel. The access road for construction shall have the total width of 4.5 m (width 3.0 m +
shoulder 0.75 m× 2), and be provided with sidetracks to enable facing traffic by vehicles as the sites is
not of the clear passage/perspective. Further, there expected to have surface water in the river at the
early stage and ending stage of dry season, though there is none during the mid-dry season, it is
planned to have such river crossing works as temporary bridge and buried drainage pipes in the river
crossing sections.

(2) Demolish/Disposal of Existing Structures

Demolishing of the existing structures as intake weir and service reservoir etc. shall be made by
through crushing by large-size breaker in combination with the manual work by concrete breaker.
Rubbish and chips of concrete produced shall be hauled and disposed at the designated place as

2-68
DNSAS informed.

(3) Rock Excavation and Crushing of Huge Stone and Boulder

Steep slope mountains lie in close proximity on both banks of the Bemos river, and there found
a number of exposed rocks here and there with huge stones scattered in the river bed. Some of them
are boulders flown down from the upper stream and it is judged that larger ones are of exposed due to
the erosion/scouring on the neighboring grounds. It is also considered that there may be considerable
number of huge stones in the river terraces extended on both banks.

The huge stones and boulders existing in the river terraces and riverbed will be crushed by using
the large-size breaker. Crushing by using dynamite is not preferable due to the troublesome procedures
for importing and stocking and also the possible negative effect on the local people in the area.

(4) Concrete Works

It is estimated that under the project as much as 1,100 m3 of concrete will be used for various
concrete structures and wet masonry etc.
There is a local contractor (Australian finance) who possesses a concrete plant at the area nearby
the downstream of Bemos Water Treatment Plant. Policy has been decided that concrete will be
procured from this local contractor to be hauled by concrete mixer car and delivered to the
construction site.

(5) Pipe Works

Under the project, there is one (1) section where pipeline will be re-routed. For connecting with
the existing pipeline, non-suspension method shall be employed as required due to the limited water
supply suspension time. Moreover, removal of the existing pipes will not be executed in principle for
the re-routing sections. In case of removal, however, the pipes shall be cut into pieces of re-usable
length and transferred to DNSAS. Further, in the case of installing air valves, wash-out and isolating
valves on the existing pipes for the purpose of improvement in O & M, non-suspension method is
necessary as required due also to the limited time of allowable water suspension time.

2-2-4-1-2 Policy to Active Use of Local Contractor

During the time of Indonesian rule, most of the construction works had been undertaken by
Indonesian nationals. While for those construction works under the re-construction program aided by
UN, WB, ADB and so forth after the social disorder in 1999, most of the works were carried out by the
foreign contractors. Concerning Japanese contractors as many as 5 construction firms have ever
participated in the construction works in Timor-Leste for road, irrigation facilities, port, water works
and schools, they are Tobishima Corporation, Dai Nippon Construction, Toa Corporation, Wakachiku
Corporation and Mirai Construction Co.

In Timor-Leste today, there are construction contractors in 2 manners, one solely by local nature
and the other affiliated by foreign companies (Australian and Singapore). Most of the local companies
are of small scale without personnel of high technical standard and construction equipment and
machineries, thus in many cases tends to procure required technical staff and construction machineries

2-69
after contract signing. While some of the foreign-affiliated companies are found capable enough with
having a certain number of machineries, resident technicians and engineers (Foreign and local), and
are doing some works as sub-contractor of the foreign companies and/or supply construction
machineries and concrete.

As these companies are capable as mentioned above and considered that the quality in
construction could be secured but the unit costs of the works tend to be higher as compared with the
case of local contractors. Those Japanese contractors are usually performing the job through
sub-contracting with plural number of the local foreign-affiliated companies depending on the kinds or
works.

As is the case, under the subject project, policy is confirmed that appropriate local construction
companies be positively employed depending on the kind of works in parallel with the direct work by
main contractor which will be undertaken in a manner local technicians engaging the work with due
guidance by the experienced technicians from the third countries.

2-2-4-1-3 Policy on Assignment of Technicians and Engineers

In Timor-Leste, those engineers and technicians who have enough knowledge and techniques on
construction works are quite limited. Therefore, it is necessary to arrange the construction crew
consisting with experienced technicians from the third countries like the Philippines to guide the local
technicians and workers. For the form work, however, higher accuracy is to be secured and it is
considered necessary to have Japanese nationals assigned to this job and guide the local technicians
and workers. For the anchoring works too, it is considered necessary to assign a Japanese national
technician since it is of special technique.

2-2-4-1-4 Procurement Policy

Construction materials which can be availed at the site are sand and gravel and all the others are
imported ones. Price of the construction materials in Timor-Leste is comparatively higher than the
neighboring countries. Also in recent years, the price escalation is considerable due to the escalation of
transportation cost as caused by the price escalation of crude oil especially since the year 2006.
Moreover, those construction materials as cement and reinforcing bar etc. are available in the domestic
market, but the stock ready for sale is rather limited. The said materials are imported mainly from
Indonesia, Australia and Singapore and direct purchase from these countries may result in more
economical purchasing in the case if the quantity exceeds a certain level.

Accordingly, in case if purchasing from Japan and third countries is more advantageous in view
of the quantity, delivery period and economic efficiency, materials will be procured from these
countries. Further, the policy is to apply the JIS standard for the steel pipes and valves and to procure
testing equipment from Japan and the third countries since local suppliers have no experience in
handling these materials and equipment.

2-70
2-2-4-1-5 Policy on Construction Scheduling

The climate of the project site is of tropical monsoon type where rainy season and dry season
are clearly demarcated and in the rainy season there are quite intensive rainfalls causing often floods.
The project site is surrounded by steep slope mountains also and the run-off speed is very high.

Table 2-2.32 Duration of Rainy and Dry Seasons and Mean Monthly Rainfall
Season Duration Mean monthly Year of Data
Rainy Nov.-Apr. 115 mm-156 mm 1953-1999
Dry May-Oct. 15 mm-74 mm 1953-1999

The rainy season starts at around

early November and lasts till April with 200.0
the mean monthly rainfall of more than A v e r a g e R a in f a l ( m m / M o n t h )
100 mm. At the mountainous area 150.0
located upstream basin of Bemos river,
the rain starts earlier and records more 100.0
rainfall amount than Dili city area. As
per the interview from the local
50.0
residents, there have been some big
floods even in April, ending period of
0.0
the rainy season. Further, it is said that
Jan. Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Aug Sep Oct Nov Dec
the full scale rainy season starts at
around December, however, as per the Fig. 2-2.21 Monthly Mean Rainfall at Dili
information from the local contractors, in the Past 5 Years (2003-2007)
they are of the opinion that the
construction works at the Bemos river better be completed by the end of October.

In view of the above, the policy on the construction scheduling may be confirmed that for those
construction works to be undertaken in the river bed shall start with the access roads at the early May
and followed by the full scale construction to be completed by the end of October.

2-2-4-2-1 Bemos River Discharge

At the upstream of Bemos river, there found surface flow throughout a year, while downstream
reach there, sub-surface flow may appear in the full dry season, though early parts of dry and rainy
season which are in the scheduled construction period surface flows appear also. Therefore, it is
planned that a coffer dam will be built at the upstream of the intake to be rehabilitated and a by-pass
channel be provided. Design flood discharge is determined for planning the coffer dam and by-pass
channel and taking into account the construction method and construction procedure for each related
structure, construction period shall be adequately fixed.

2-2-4-2-2 Limitation in Water Supply Suspension Time

Through the consultation meeting with the DNSAS, it was confirmed that water supply
suspension is impossible during 6:00AM-10:00AM and 3:00PM-9:00PM each day taking into account
the peak time of water demand and also water supply suspension shall be limited only for three (3)
days in a week. Therefore, possible suspension time in a day is fixed for 5 hours of 10:00AM-3:00PM
and it is necessary to adopt construction/installation methods which enable to finish within the fixed
time available for re-routing of pipeline and installation isolated valves and etc. If it is necessary,
non-suspension method shall be considered too.

2-2-4-2-3 Installation of Temporary Water Supply Facilities for Service Reservoir

For the rehabilitation/improvement of the Lower Service Reservoir, it is planned that water be
distributed to the users of Dili city through the Upper Service Reservoir. This requires water supply
from the treatment plant to the Upper Service Reservoir. The Upper Service Reservoir is situated at
higher level than the treatment plant and temporary pumping facilities are required for this purpose.

Table 2-2.34 Quantity of Water for Distribution

Structure No. Quantity of water for distribution
Structure No. 14: Service reservoir 26 liter/sec

2-2-4-2-4 Removing of the Existing Lower Service Reservoir

The existing Lower Service Reservoir is of excavated type with having treatment facilities on
the south side, and on the east side the Lower Service Reservoir is located near the foundation works
of wet masonry revetment to protect the slope under the Upper Service Reservoir. As is the case, it is

2-73
planned that the two (2) side walls as mentioned shall remain as they are during the construction. In
order to protect the side walls from collapsing due to earth pressure, some measures like anchoring
may be needed.

2-2-4-2-5 Collecting of Aggregate and Stone Materials

As per the “Environmental Guideline” as effective in Timor-Leste, it is specified as regulations

that prohibit stock-yard installation in the river course, prohibit change of river course which may
cause river bank erosion, requires clear marking of gravel collecting site and limit collecting gravels in
the river and so on. Also it is necessary to have a thorough presentation of the material collecting plan
for the local administrations and communities concerned. As the case may be, when the contractors
will proceed to aggregate and stone material collecting under the project, they have to obtain necessary
permissions for the material collecting from the authorities concerned.

2-2-4-2-6 Compensation for Standing Trees and Land Acquisition

It is necessary to make compensation for the standing trees and lands required for the project
facilities such as grit chamber and access roads for construction. The government of Timor-Leste is
requested to take necessary actions to complete required compensation procedures based on the
Implementation Reivew as well as Detailed Design prior to the commencement of construction works
under the project.

Access roads for construction are planned basically to pass either river low water channel or
river bank terraces, but there are possibilities that the local residents may claim that they own the lands
in river terraces. This requires DNSAS to carry out proper orientation/explanation to the local
communities concerned, and those facilities temporarily removed for the subject project construction
purpose shall be restored as a responsibility of the construction contractors.

2-2-4-2-7 Concrete Placing under the High Temperature Condition

Under the project, it is expected to have some concrete placing under the condition of high
temperature. In case of concrete placing where mean daily temperature may exceed 25℃, the
placing shall be performed in conformity with the technical specification of “hot weather concrete”.
With this concern, due attention shall be paid by the contractors in practicing proper slump control
during concrete mixing and also the curing by water so as not to cause cracking caused by shrinkage
and temperature fluctuation. Further, the hauling distance from ready-mixed concrete plant to the
placing site via, it is necessary to manage the time needed for mixing and hauling and placing to be
within 1.5 hours in case of temperature exceeding 25℃ and 2.0 hours in case of lower than 25℃.

2-2-4-2-8 Temporary Stock-yard

Construction sites are scattered over the river terraces, courses and channels in the mountain
areas, and there are possibilities of robbery of equipment and materials if stocked at the sites.
Therefore, it is preferable to have a stock-yard provided at the suburb of Dili city and be transported to
the construction sites on daily basis. In case if it is necessary to store construction machineries and
materials, some counter-measures for prevention of possible robbery shall be worked out.

2-74
2-2-4-2-9 Technicians and Labors for Construction Works

Jobless ratio in the urban area of Timor-Leste is quite high and accordingly the labor market is
in the oversupply state. However, since the time of Indonesian rule, those categories of job which
requires higher knowledge and techniques have been monopolized by Indonesian nationals and the
present situation is that there are very few engineers and technicians locally available.

Based on the past experience in implementing grant aid projects in Timor Leste, it is a
customary practice to procure/employ required labors from the communities located nearby the
construction sites and many of the local residents are in the jobless state, then, a kind of short term
rotation manner is necessary to be adopted. Being different from each locality, but long term
employment can not be expected, anyhow (Only 2 weeks rotation), then the productivity of the labor
seems to be low.

<Regulations in accordance with the Labor Code, Employment conditions>

The Labor Code consisting of 47 provisions and called “Regulation No.2002/5 on the
Establishment of a Labor Code for East Timor” was stipulated and in force since May 1, 2002. The
Labor Code regulates the employment conditions as follows and a form of employment agreement is
shown. The form was prepared based on the long term employment and considered the conditions
therein are of employee’s preference. The form is used to be applied for the employment of labors on
project basis.

・ Need for informing the discharging in advance (10 days before in case of 3-6 months
employment, 15 days before in 6-12 months and 30 days in longer than 1 year case)
・ No stipulation about the discharge allowance but pay is customarily practiced.
・ Paid leave: 1 day for 1 month working and in case of non-use, to be paid/compensation
・ Working hours: 8 hours/day (Maximum 12 hours including over time), 44 hours/week
・ Over time: 150% for week days and 200% for holidays

2-2-4-2-10 Transportation and Custom Clearance

It can be said that the handling/unloading capacity of Dili port is quite limited. Accordingly if
there are a number of cargo ships in the port, it will take many days for unloading and for custom
clearance. While there expected major parts of equipment/materials needed for project construction are
to be procured from Japan and other third countries, it is necessary to make a sound construction
scheduling with due time allowances for transportation and custom clearance.

2-2-4-3 Scope of Works

The subject grant aid project will be implemented and operated with the demarcation of the
obligations as shown below.

project through due consultation with DNSAS so as not to cause undue delay in the construction
progress.

After the E/N is exchanged by and between broth governments, the government of Timor-Leste
will sign a consulting service agreement with a Japanese consulting firm. The consulting service
agreement shall be divided into two phases, one for the detailed design and the other for the
construction supervision.

2-2-4-4-2 Detailed Design

2-2-4-6 Plan for Procurement of Construction Materials

2-2-4-6-1 Procurement of Materials

In Timor-Leste, almost all the construction materials are imported ones except sand and
rock/stone materials. Due to this there are several liner-ships are on services and several construction
materials suppliers are operating the business with imported materials from Indonesia, Singapore and
Australia. With this situation, construction materials in general are available in Timor-Leste except
some special ones.

2-79
 In price-wise, however, materials available in the country are comparatively higher than the
neighboring countries and also due to the limited quantity of materials handled by the whole-sellers in
Dili, direct purchase from the neighboring countries may be advantageous in case of big quantity of
materials to be procured.

In view of the above-mentioned situation, whether the materials be purchased from the local
dealer or by direct purchase from the neighboring countries shall be judged taking into account the
transportation cost, delivery period and the price itself. The following table shows possible sources of
materials to be procured.

(1) Aggregate / Stone Materials

Under this project, it is planned to procure the concrete from the local contractor who has a
concrete plant in Dili and there expected no need for purchasing aggregate materials in large quantity.
While the project requires procuring much stone materials for uses in wet masonry revetment and wet
stone pitching works. Aggregate and stone materials are available by collecting from the Comoro river
and others and materials dealers purchase the aggregate and stone materials from the local residents.
Therefore, such aggregate and stone materials are to be purchased from the local dealers as said.

(2) Cement

Cement is all imported and mainly it is of made in Indonesia generally. In case if a lot of cement
is required for construction purpose, cement is either purchased from the domestic whole-seller or
local contractor or procured directly from the exporter in Indonesia. The cement price at the time of
field survey (1 month period) has been escalated two times due to the global basis price escalation for
all the commodities.

2-80
 There is a report that Indonesian-made cement can not secure 35N/square mm, required strength
for the high strength concrete, and due attention shall be paid in case of using the Indonesian-made
cement for the high strength concrete.

(3) Concrete

At the downstream area of Bemos Water Treatment Plant, there is a local contractor (Australian
finance) who has a concrete plant, and many of the constructors purchase the concrete from this local
contractor. Through testing no problem is found in its quality and for the project cement is planned to
be procured from the same local contractor. Further, in case if it is necessary to use partially
cast-in place concrete, such concrete shall be prepared by using aggregate, cement and water
satisfying the specifications and applying the mixing ratio as confirmed satisfactorily in the
mixing test.

Table 2-2.38 Standard for Concretes

Kind of concrete Compressive strength
Plain concrete 18N/mm2
Reinforced concrete 21N/mm2
Pavement concrete 21N/mm2

(4) Reinforcing Bar

All the reinforcing bar being availed in the country is imported one. The most are from
Indonesia and followed by Australia. The price is even higher than the market price in Japan due to the
inclusion of high transportation cost. Under the project, it is estimated that as much as 40 tons of
reinforcing bar is required and policy of procurement is to purchase the same made in the third
countries which secures the quality standard and available in the local market.

(5) Steel Pipes and Valves

For the existing raw water main from Bemos intake to the treatment plant, steel pipes of JIS
standard are used. Under the subject project, steal pipe needed for renovation of lower reservoir in
Bemos Water Treatment Plant is planned to be procured from Japan. Isolating valves and air valves too,
source of the procurement is planned to be Japan.

(6) Materials for Temporary Works

Such materials for form-work as form-tie, wooden cone and separator are not available in
Timor-Leste and planned to be procured from Japan. Also the materials for temporary works as
steel-scaffolding and steel supports are not commonly available in the market in Timor-Leste and
planned to be procured from Japan. While, such materials used for temporary works as colgate pipes
and PVC shall be locally procured.

2-81
2-2-4-6-2 Procurement of Construction Machineries

Under the urgent re-construction program implemented with the UN aid, there were high
demands for various construction machineries and several local contractors affiliated by foreign
contractors own various types of common construction machineries such as backhoe, bulldozer, dump
truck and truck crane. As is the case, these machineries are available in Timor-Leste on rental basis.

Table 2-2.39 Sources of Machineries Procurement

15) Boring machine ○ ○
Note: Third countries assumed are Indonesia, Australia and Singapore.

It is noted, however, that the rental cost of these machineries remains at very high level similar
to the previous case, since these machineries were urgently imported from neighboring countries by
local contractors without having any rental market and most of the rental contracts were concluded
with very high rate at the time of UN’s urgent re-construction program implementation.
In case of construction machineries to be used on long term basis, there are possibilities that the
cost of machineries procured from the third countries or Japan can be lower than the rental cost in
Timor-Leste, and therefore, procurement of construction machineries shall be determined through
examining the assignment period of the machineries and other relevant factors. The following table
shows the possible sources of the procurement of major construction machineries.

2-4-1 Operation and Maintenance System and Staffing

Production Unit, Dili O&M Division, Dili Water & Sanitation Department is in charge of
operation and maintenance work of Bemos raw water main and Bemos water treatment plant. Two
contracted caretaker workers living in neighboring village inspect on foot along pipeline to the intake
and keep clean the screen everyday. Also other two staffs operate the plant and care for the Lower
Service Reservoir. Chief operator is resident in quarters inside the compound.

In the case that facilities are damaged or leakage occurs, if it is a minor nature, the staff
belonging to Technical Unit, Dili O&M Division, Dili Water & Sanitation Department repairs it
directly. When disaster strikes the facilities or pipe is broken seriously, Dili Water & Sanitation
Department requests Planning & Development Department to repair it. Then Planning & Development
Department makes survey, design, and cost estimation for tendering and supervises the repair work to
be done by a contractor.

2-89
2-6 Other Relevant Issues

(1) Category Classification on Environmental Impact

The category of environmental impact by the subject project implementation is classified as C,

for which EIA and submission of EMP are not required due to the little impact to the environment. At
the time of Implementation Review Study, however, it was found out that the validity of the
classification will be effective only up to November 2011, and it was necessary to have the validity
extended until the end of the effectiveness. To cope with this, it is confirmed that DNSAS will
extended.

(2) Procedures for Securing Permission for Sand and Gravel Collection

For the rehabilitation works for raw water main, it is expected that construction contractor will
take sand/gravel material in and around the site for which permissions are required from NDES and
the Minister in charge of natural resources. The C category as mentioned above implies the judging by
NDES that the subject project will cause a little environmental impact due to the little quantity of sand
and gravel materials used for the project and accordingly permitted. However, it is necessary to
confirm further that the classification shall be valid and effective until the completion of the subject
project implementation.

In the application for permission from the Minister of natural resources, it is necessary to attach
information (outline) on construction works under the project and locations showing material
collecting as planned, and these information can be available in the construction plan documents
which will be submitted to DNSAS after the construction contract becomes effective. After the
contract signing, DNSAS is to obtain the construction plan documents soonest possible and proceed to
apply for the permission from the Minister, as agreed upon.

Chapter 3 Project Evaluation
Chapter 3 Project Evaluation
3-1 Recommendation

3-1-1 Matters to be Undertaken by the Government of Timor-Leste for Implementation of the

Project

It is noted that the followings are the matters to be undertaken by the Government of
Timor-Leste for Implementation of the Phases II Project.

1) Environmental and Social Considerations

The Phases I Project and Phase II Project categorized as Category C, which means that the
serious environmental and social impact is not expected during construction and after completion of
the project and the project will be implemented based on EIA guideline, by DENS. However, validity
of permission of EIA is for one year, so it is necessary for DNSAS to extend the permission until the
valid period.

2) Permission for land use related to the Project

It was confirmed that the slope area around landsliding at access road to Bemos Treatment Plant
is national property. Moreover, the permission from the concerned authorities for land use related to
the Project such as countermeasure for landsliding should be proceed by DNSAS.

3) Cost for Pump Operation during renovation of Lower Service Reservoir

It is necessary to pump up treatment water to upper service reservoir for temporary instead of
lower service reservoir during construction in association with the implementation of improvement
work of the Lower Service Reservoir and Valve Chamber in the Bemos Water Treatment Plant. The
contractor should prepare the temporary pump system. DNSAS should bear operation cost required for
water distribution during construction.

4) Notice to water users about schedule interruption of water supply

The Government of Timor-Leste should keep water users informed of schedule interruption of
water supply due to the improvement work of Raw Water Main through meeting, newspapers and
advertising board.

5) Explanations to municipalities and communities around project site

The Government of Timor-Leste should explain the project detail to the municipalities and
communities around project site, and to obtain their consents. Mining river stone material

6) Excavations of River Stone/ Sand

The Government of Timor-Leste should ensure that Japanese Contractor can sand and gravel
without charge from Bemos and Comoro River for the construction work of Phase II Project.

3-1-2 Matters to be Undertaken by the Government of Timor-Leste

It is noted that the followings are the matters to be undertaken by the Government of
Timor-Leste and related recommendations to bring about the project effects positively and in
sustainable manner.

3-1
(1) Sand Flushing Works for Intake and Raw Water Main

With the implementation of the subject grant aid project, a grit chamber and sand sluiceway will
be newly provided at the intake facility. Before the project those accumulated sands had been removed
from the pipeline on a regular basis, but after the project the same will be deposited at the intake,
requiring a regular sand flushing works. Also, the number of wash-out attached along the pipeline be
increased considerably. It implies that through the facilities improvement as mentioned, the sand
flushing works become much easier as compared with the previous situation. It is, therefore, necessary
for DNSAS to secure required O & M personnel and budget and undertake O & M activities
systematically in a sustainable manner.

(2) Maintenance of Raw Water Main Pipeline in the River Course

Bemos River is a steep slope river and it is expected that such erosion and sedimentation will be
repeated every year during the flooding periods even after the subject rehabilitation/improvement
works under the project be completed. Therefore, it is deemed necessary for DNSAS to take regular
maintenance/repair works such as earth covering for the newly exposed pipes and repairing of gabions
damaged due to erosions. This shall include such preventive measures as required in various aspects so
as to avoid any large scale accidents/damages which may cause breaking of pipes and water supply
suspension.

(3) Operation and Maintenance of Bemos Water Treatment Plant

Concerning the Bemos Water Treatment Plant, the treatment unit which is the core of the plant,
has been lately rehabilitated as the grant aid project by the Government of Japan in 2007, and with the
implementation of the subject project, raw water supply for the plant will be stably secured as
originally planned and further the sustainable use of service reservoir can be secured for a long term
basis, operation of the plant to satisfy a systematic water supply plan could be possible. To this end,
DNSAS is requested to secure required staff and budget for practicing the reliable/steady plant
operation in addition to regular and timely procurement of chemicals, O & M of electro-mechanical
facilities and quality control of the treated water and etc.

(4) Collaboration with Technical Cooperation Project and Other Donors

Under the technical cooperation project of “Human resource development in waterworks

authority in Timor-Leste” by JICA, which is to be implemented during the period from September
2008 to March 2011, a variety of guidance and training programs are to be provided for the
staff/workers in charge of DNSAS. Accordingly, it is expected that practical O & M manual to be
prepared by the said project would be fully utilized for the O & M activities by DNSAS staff/workers
for the subject raw water main and related facilities.

Further to mention, it is considered necessary and meaningful if the Engineer/expert in charge of

the said technical cooperation project by JICA may have regular meetings and exchange
ideas/opinions with ADB/Aus AID/other donors for water supply sector concerning such important
topics as project implementation methods, problem areas on O & M of water supply facilities and
actual examples of effective countermeasures and etc. further to mention, it is expected that in Zone 3

3-2
and Zone 4 of the service area will be adopted with hourly water supply restriction during the
construction work for Bemos raw water main and the Lower Service Reservoir, and at the same time
in zones 2,4 and 5, it is expected also to have pipe laying works for water supply main and distribution
branches under the ADB project. In view of the above, it is quite necessary to have a good
coordination among DNSAS, ADB, the above mentioned JICA technical cooperation project and the
subject grant aid project concerning the manner how to secure water supply for the people in the
relevant zones.

Among others, the subject grant aid project will cause an effect to increase the raw water supply
to the Dili water supply system, and it is necessary to materialize the project effect in the form of
increased water supply quantity as well as increased supply hours within the service area or in the city
area. To cope with this, the following-mentioned associated conditions are to be fulfilled mainly by
DNSAS.

- Consolidation of distribution pipe network including main and branches

- Fixing contract for water supply and payment, connecting pipe works and education program for
residents
- Making customer registration book and employment of meter-checker

In view of the above requirement, it is considered quite important to have the project effects as
derived from ADB supported project be materialized as soon as possible.

3-2 Project Evaluation

3-2-1 Relevance of the Project

・ Target beneficiaries of the project are 5.7 million peoples (at 2006), which is 35 % of the population
of Dili, in zone 3 and 4 of water supply service area in Dili.

・ The project purpose is to secure safety and sustainable water supply to zone 3 and 4 of water supply
service area in Dili, and also contribute to the improvement of BHN in Timor-Leste. Improvement of
water supply facilities will bring improved people's lives. It is important to improve the water supply
condition in order to stabilize people's livelihood considering that riots have occurred in the past in
Dili.

・ Bemos River, which flows near the target sit of the Project, is steep stream and flood occurred in
every rainy season gives the big damage to the water facilities near the river, therefore, it is necessary
to rehabilitate the damaged facilities as soon as possible. Lower service reservoir in Bemos water
treatment plant has deteriorated, it is possible to collapse in case of no rehabilitation, it is required to
rehabilitate soon.

・ Intake and pipeline, which will be rehabilitated in the Project, is adapted to gravity flow system.
Periodical sediment works become easy by improvement of intake and adding the wash out facilities.
It is possible to maintain the facilities by present staff and present budget of DNSAS. Water delivery
system of the water treatment plant after the rehabilitation of lower service reservoir is same as
present condition, daily peroration and maintenance of the fasciitis can be done by present staff.

3-3
 The high technology and special equipments will not be used in the Project.

・ In Timor-Leste, one of the priority target of national development plan is to improve the nation
health , it’s strategy is to become that 80 % of urban people can access the safety water during 24
hours. The project contributes to achieve the above purpose.

・ The purpose of the Project is to secure the enough water supply in Dili. The Dili water supply system
is public service under DNSAS, it is necessary to increase the income of charge in order to secure the
labor cost and OM cost. It is required to strength the finance of DNSAS, however, the Project doesn’t
have high profit which the private sector would invest.

・ The amount of drawing water will increase after the Project, but it is assumed on the plan, there will
not big influence in human life and agriculture and fishery. During the construction, there will not
minus influence to social environment, such as resettlement, traffic obstruction, community
interruption, influence of remain and cultural heritage. About consideration of natural environment,
there is plan to flow the water treated from construction dirty water in the site.

・ The project is general civil works, it is possible to implement by local contractor and/or using local
worker and foreign engineer under the Japanese contractor management. The construction material
and equipment is planed to procure from Timor, Indonesia and Japan, it is no problem to procure.

3-2-2 Effectiveness of the Project

The following effects are expected after renovation of Bemos – Dili water supply system by the
implementation of this project.

(1) Quantitative effect

It is possible to supply water continuously without damaged by flood after rehabilitation. Water
supply volume will increase and it is possible to reduce the stop of the water supply, because
maintenance becomes easy after installation of wash out facilities and grid chamber.

Table3-1.1 Index of Quantitative effectiveness

Index Reference on 2009 Target on 2013
3
Supply water volume 7,800 m /day 8,800 m3/day
Number of day to stop water supply per year 7 days 0 days

(2) Qualitative effect

The qualitative effects are as follows

・ After rehabilitation of the water supply system, the supply for raw water to water treatment plant will
be stabilized therefore it contributes to improve the water supply and sanitation in Dili.

・ By stabilization of raw water supply, it is possible to operate water supply facilities and to supply water
deliberately, it contribute to establish water fee collection system.

As mentioned previously, this project contributes to improve sanitation and public health in Dili.

3-4
Therefore, it is relevant to carry out project by Japan grant aid. It is possible to operate and maintain the
facilities by DNSAS after the rehabilitation, because of enough budget and staff. Thus, it is judged the
implementation of Project is high relevant and effective.
