Umutara Community Resources & Infrastructure Development Project The project has been designed to cover the Umutara province with the exception of areas where other agencies such as AfDB and GTZ are currently developing related activities. The province is located in the north-eastern part of Rwanda and shares borders in the north with Uganda, in the east with Tanzania and in the south with Kibungo province. Umutara covers about 2000 km� of which some 90% are classified as grazing lands and comprises ten communes of which six, accounting for some 58% of total area will benefit from the proposed project. 
The overall objective of the project is to empower the targeted poor of Umutara province to develop the common infrastructure necessary to achieve the best possible sustainable livelihoods they can get from the existing resources base, through an enhanced improvement of the productive capacity of agricultural, agro-pastoral and pastoral communities. This objective is in line with the Government's strategy to encourage the return of refugees and increase rural income.

More specifically the project aims at:

+ Providing access to domestic water supply to some 30,000 households, representing about 75% of the total households in the six communes comprising the project area. The provision of domestic water will be supported by a roof water catchment system that would assist those households that cannot be serviced by borehole/hand pumps systems. 

+ Construction and/or upgrading some 300 km of rural feeder roads, thus facilitating the movement of people and improving access to health and social services.

+ Increasing households food security by intensifying agricultural production through the introduction of improved seeds, the use of soil conservation measures and mineral fertilizers.

+ Ensuring long-term agricultural sustainability through better cropping and rangeland practices and, thus, increasing household incomes.

+ Promoting community-based and community-driven development.

Zonguldak Waste Water Treatment Plant Project Project Description
The proposed project consists of the enhancement of wastewater treatment in the Municipality of Zonguldak. The project objectives will be achieved through the enhancement of water treatment capabilities by installing an integral system beginning with collection of wastewater, transport to a new wastewater facility and finally the discharge of treated water into the Black Sea. The system as a whole has been designed to enable further expansion, in particular to accommodate the higher nitrogen and phosphorus loads anticipated in the future.
The proposed integral wastewater project includes the following systems:
1.	Wastewater Conveyance System (WCS). 
The proposed system will rehabilitate the existing sewerage collection infrastructure and expand coverage to integrate users that currently have no sewerage service. Additionally, a pipeline will be built to connect the rehabilitated and expanded collection network in Zonguldak with a new wastewater treatment plant. The pipeline will require the construction of pumping stations to ensure adequate flow velocity and the transportation of the sewage without sedimentation, while minimizing maintenance and operation costs.
2.	Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTP). 
Designs call for the WWTP to be located along a highway in the proximity of a landfill on the seacoast west of Zonguldak. The treatment process utilizes an environmentally-friendly approach, using screening, primary settlement, trickling filters and conventional activated sludge methods. Subsequent treatment of the raw and excess activated sludge is by anaerobic digestion; with biogas energy recovery contributing around 50% of the plant's operating requirements. After dewatering and thickening, the resultant bio-solid can be used as fertilizer. The effluent is then passed on to the Sea Outfall System.
3.	Sea Outfall System: This system complements the WWTP by receiving the effluent and discharging it into the Black Sea. The design of this system is efficient and complies with European regulations.

3. Reduce the hazardous on-road material transportation between Gabes and Jerba/Zarzis,
4. Improve the comfort of hotels in a region with a high touristic potential with more guarantee of supply reliability , improved safety, no handling and no user storage,
5. Reduce the current domestic tensions in LPGs as well as reduce the State financial support to LPGs in terms of subsidies,
6. Complete the penetration of natural gas in hotels , strengthen the natural gas system and promote the utilization of natural gas as a clean source of energy for the environment as well as promote a rationale use of energy.
