Case Study 1: Alandur Sewerage Project 4.1 Project Description The Alandur Sewerage Project (ASP) was initiated in the year 1996 by the Chairman of the Alandur Municipality (AM) AM, located adjacent to Chennai, forms a part of the Chennai Metropolitan Area. With a population of around 165.000, the municipality is a residential suburb of Chennai with predominantly residential and commercial activities. Approximately one-fourth of is population lives in slums Prior to 1996, the town did not have an underground sewerage system and all sewage was managed with individual septic tanks. The largely unregulated disposal of sewage in storm water drains was an environmental and health concern for the local residents and was frequently raised as a political issue. Around 98% of 19,800 households used either septic tanks or holding tanks collected periodically by tankers and disposed in the low-lying areas outside the municipal limits. In 1996. AM announced an ambitious plan to construct an underground sewerage system and waste water treatment facility with the participation of the private sector, contribution from the public. and payment to be provided by the city. The proposal was transformational as it involved a service never before made available by the municipality, with financial and management responsibilities being shared by the municipality, the residents, the private sector and state government bodies. The ASP was designed with the following objectives: To improve the standard of living of the residents of Alandur (on par with that of Chennai To provide the most essential basic facility to all the residents of the town To eradicate the mosquito menace. To avoid the recurring expenditure on sepele tank cleaning and To avoid ground water contamination The proposed sewerage system was to be designed for the estimated population of about 300,000 in 2027 and was planned to be completed within a five-year period from its inception date. The project components included: A sewerage network consisting of the main sewer line, branch sewer line and manholes Construction of a sewage pumping station A sewage treatment plant and Low cost sanitation In the initial phase the plane was to treat 12 million lieres per day (mid) of sewage supplied to it by the municipality. The ultimate capacity was to be 24 mld. To plan this complex and politically challenging project, the AM worked in partnership with the Tamil Nadu Urban Infrastructure Financial Services Limited (TNUIFSL), the state asset management company and with USAID's Financial Institution Reform and Expansion (FIRE) Project
