ID-Umbulan Springs The Greater Surabaya region comprises the City of Surabaya and three adjacent regencies, Gresik, Sidoarjo, and Pasuruan. Its population reaches some 6 million of whom 4 million urban and 2 million rural. Their water supply has long been grossly inadequate. All cities suffer from intermittent service, which permits groundwater, contaminated by seepage from the cities. septic tanks, to infiltrate into the pipes. As a result close to half of all water samples in the distribution system test positive for bacteriological pollution. About half of the Greater Surabaya urban population are estimated to be connected to the public water supply (PDAMs). The remaining half . comprising the lowest income groups . draws water from polluted shallow wells or streams, or buy water from communal stand posts or water vendors, paying tariffs per cubic meter that range from 8 to 30 times what better-off connected households pay. However, PDAMs are reluctant to expand coverage because their production and distribution capacity is insufficient to cope with present demand, let alone serve additional households. The urban water systems have become a drag on the region.s economic development and a grave threat to public health, which unduly falls on the poorest population. The Project aims at improving water supply to Greater Surabaya through the operational strengthening of their water utilities (PDAMs), rehabilitating their distribution systems and water treatment plants, and by increasing water production from Umbulan springs through the Public-Private Partnership for building and operating the Umbulan pipline and its system. Progress in achieving these objectives will be evaluated annually on the basis of increasing number of people with access to piped water supply, number of connections for the poor, and number of people with access to improved sanitation.
