Social Infrastructure
 
The Project includes the enhancement of rainwater collection for water supply and a pilot project for better sanitation. The rainwater collection component will include assistance to individual families by provision of credit for new roofing (up to a maximum roof area of 50 square meters) and for the purchase of rainwater storage tanks. The sanitation component will include technical assistance and credit to individual families in the NDR to construct on-site sanitation units using appropriate technology as well as a pilot community project using a sewerage system. Credit repaid by individual households will be utilized for a social development fund of which 50 percent will be for income-generating projects and the balance for social infrastructure projects. Equipment for sludge removal from existing septic tanks will be procured for each region.
