The three reservoirs and pump station have reached 100% completion, the main pipeline is more than 50% complete, and the contractor for the network distribution has been engaged. Though works on household sanitation facilities have been delayed, the contractors for schools and health centers have been engaged and are breaking ground. Key consultancy contracts are continuing to advance accordingly, including the WASH Master Plan, Water Act revision, River Health Monitoring, Drought Monitor activities, and Risk Profiles. 5.
