Historical background – Nairobi Supply
• The initial water supply facility for Nairobi was constructed in 1899 abstracting water from Nairobi river in the Athi river catchment.
• Kikuyu springs were first water source developed in 1900-1906. The yield from this source was 5,000m3/day.
• Ruiru (photo) is the second water source developed during 1936 to 1938. Ruiru dam completed in 1950. The yield is 22,000m3/day.
Developed Water Sources for Nairobi City
• Third is Sasumua dam located up stream of the Chania river was completed in 1956. Production is 57,000m3/day.
• Lately, Thika dam and Ngethu t/works system were developed from 1974 to 1994 in three phases. Total capacity is 440,000m3/day.

Summary of Existing Water Production for Nairobi
Source Rated capacity (m3/day)
Treated water flows (m3/day)
Kikuyu springs 5,000 (11,000) 4,800 (11,000)
Ruiru dam 22,000 18,000
Sasumua dam 59,000 42,000
Thika Dam 440,000 327,000
Total 532,000 398,000
Development objectives of WaSSIP II
• Rehabilitating selected existing water production, transmission, storage and distribution facilities and waste water collection, treatment and disposal facilities
• Construction of new water treatment works in identified towns
• Expanding piped water supply services to underserved areas and through expansion of primary and secondary distribution systems
• Refining and strengthening the institutional structure, emphasizing on increasing accountability and transparency of the institutional, governance and management framework
Challenges….. (some)
• Huge investment estimated at Kshs 42 Billion required to develop infrastructure to meet medium term (2020) water demands;
• Competing needs for scarce water resources. Athi catchment is said to have 162m3/cap/year against the available 650m3/cap/year Nationally.
• High unaccounted for water.• Environmental degradation and climate change

SITUATION ANALYSIS
• Currently, the water demand stands at 672,994 m3 per day against a production of 501,350 m3 per day – hence a deficit of 171,644 m3/day which is 25% deficit
• It is estimated that current service levels for Nairobi City stand at 76 l/c/d (Source: Draft Working Paper No 1 of February 2011, Agis BCEOM/MIPP)
Current Status on Sewerage • The sewerage infrastructure in Nairobi only covers 25% of the area and serves about 40% of the population.
• Currently, there are 178,099 connections to the existing sewerage network.
Completed works
• Rehabilitation of Sasumua dam spillway and embankment to restore the dam’s storage capacity from 5 million m3 to 16 million m3.
• Rehabilitation of 23kms of water network within the city of Nairobi and two booster stations aimed at reducing ufw by 35% by December 2011
• Drilled and equipped 45 boreholes in the Nairobi City in low income and high density areas producing 20,00 m3 per day.
•
14
• Construction of 40 elevated tanks of various capacities with a total storage capacity of 1,500 m3.
• Constructed 4 new water treatment plants to produce 23,000 m3 per day.

23
Challenges
• Currently we still have high ufw standing globally at 36% with some schemes having ufw as high as 85% - Ithanga
• Huge capital investment requirements• Our WSPs are still on a tariff which is not able to
meet operational expenses with very high utility power bills
• Implementation of the new constitution which raises issues about status of Boards and ability to borrow.
24
Way forward
• AWSB has negotiated funding from various agencies to continue with the investment momentum to the tune of USD 160 million (IDA – 145 million and AFD 15 million USD)
• The Board has developed a shopping basket of Kshs 40 billion and is keen to continue implementing targeted projects within its mandate
