b. Executive Summary

(a) Short Introduction

The Project commenced on July 16, 2018 and has an end date of September 30, 2022. The goal is

to achieve USAID and GOJ strategic goals. USAID supports water sector activities through

improved infrastructure and management. The objective is to help USAID partners better plan

their resources to ensure best utilization of limited water resources, develop strategic planning,

build capacity among their staff and improve environmental protection through improvements to

the water and wastewater infrastructure based on the most feasible options to satisfy future

growth.

The Project office has been established, staff levels appropriate for performing the work are in

place, and the collection of data will be ongoing throughout the Project. Significant record data

and reports have already been collected with the assistance of MWI/WAJ, Miyahuna, and

Yarmouk Water Company (YWC). Various coordination meetings and a workshop have been

held to inform all stakeholders of the scope of the work and to learn from the stakeholders of their

interests and priorities.

(b) Summary of Results for the Reporting Period and Key Achievements

Three of the nine tasks (Tasks 3, 4 and 5) were authorized for commencement on 1 August 2018

and two activities under Task 9 were requested by USAID on 13 September 2018. The executive

summary will provide results of the three tasks and the two activities under task 9.

(i) Task 3 –Expansion of Zai Water Treatment Plant Project

This task commenced on 1 August 2018 with the main objective of the task being to evaluate the

different options for increasing the capacity of the Zai water supply scheme which will allow for

the anticipated additional water quantities that will be available as a result of the swap agreement

between Jordan and Israel.

A coordination meeting was held on 17 September 2018 with MWI/WAJ and USAID.

MWI/WAJ advised that the additional anticipated water quantities planned to be available in the

KAC have not fully materialized to the point where additional water quantities would be available

for expanding of the Zai water treatment system. MWI/WAJ advised that additional available

water quantities in the KAC will be used by the Wadi Arab II Project. Therefore, as agreed upon,

there currently are no plans under task 3 to expand the system.

The agreed upon plan under task 3 is to complete the Zai water treatment system evaluation with

the intent to identify potential options to upgrade, rehabilitate and provide reliability to the system

for the future.

(ii) Tasks 4 and 5 –Expansion of Madaba and Ramtha Wastewater Treatment Plants

These two tasks commenced on 1 August 2018. The 2 tasks aim at the expansion of the Madaba

and Ramtha WWTPs to treat the projected wastewater flows until the year 2045. The tasks will


consider population forecasts, and additional wastewater service areas planned to be connected to

the sewer network for Madaba and for Ramtha including proposed connection of the localities of

Turra, Shajarah and Emmrawah. within the planned horizon.

During the reporting period the planned approach was threefold:

1. Data collection

2. Facility and organizational assessments

3. Sampling program at each WWTP

At the end of the reporting period the Assessment Report was in preparation and a subcontract for

the sampling program was being finalized.

(iii) Task 9 (Optional) - Additional Architectural and Engineering (A&E) services

This optional task will commence when exercised by USAID. Two activities under Task 9 were

requested by USAID on 13 September 2018 as follows:

1. Technical assistance to support the Phase III expansion of the As Samra WWTP.

We met with MWI/WAJ and USAID on 17 September 2018 to discuss this new activity.

MWI/WAJ advised that Fichtner prepared a feasibility study for the Phase III expansion

of the As Samra WWTP.

At the meeting, MWI/WAJ requested the following assistance:

• Technical review: A technical review of the feasibility study

• Cost proposal review: A review of the construction cost proposal prepared by the

SPC for reasonableness

• Legal review: A review the SPC agreement with MWI/WAJ to advise on the

legal aspects of MWI/WAJ options for the expansion; specifically, the clauses

that may provide the SPC with priority over other contractors on the Phase III

expansion.

MWI/WAJ requested a Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) from CDM Smith to receive

the relevant documents to perform the review at the end of the reporting period.

2. Technical assistance to analyze and design energy interventions to support the water

sector.


MWI/WAJ advised that KfW funded a comprehensive study (by Dorsch) on the energy

efficiency in the water sector, including opportunities and projects for renewable energy.

We met with MWI/WAJ, the Dorsch representative and USAID on 23 September 2018

and agreed to follow-on meetings. The planned outcome of this initial review follows:

▪ Provide a GAP analysis to determine what studies and interventions related to

energy efficiency and renewable energy have taken place in the water sector,


▪ Meet with Dorsch, NEPCO, and RSS, and

▪ Visit the Wadi Shalalah WWTP where it is understood renewable energy on

digestor gas has been implemented.

Other potential activities, discussed at the 17 September 2018 meeting none of which have been

authorized, included:

• East Aqab Basalt Wellfield

• Ain Ghazal to As Samra WW 1500 mm Pipeline – MWI/WAJ sent an email on 12

October 2018 stating the project would be implemented as design/build and CDM Smith

would not be required for this work.

3. ACTIVITY IMPLEMENTATION

The following provides an overview of the issues and activities completed during the reporting period that

are either common to some or all of the Tasks or are required to perform the overall works of the

Contract. Additionally, activities accomplished during the reporting period that are specific to each of the

nine tasks are discussed under each task heading. Three of the nine tasks (Tasks 3, 4 and 5) were

authorized for commencement on 1 August 2018 and two activities under Task 9 were requested by

USAID on 13 September 2018 all of which are discussed below.

a. Progress Narrative

(a) Mobilization

We moved into our new offices on 12 August 2018. The office location is at 73 Al Mutanabi

Street, Amman, Jordan on the 2nd floor. Staff appropriate for the first quarter of the Project are

operating from this location. Long term staff and short term (TDY) staff are listed in Annex VI.

Jeff Dickinson has been approved for a TDY to lead the renewable energy and energy efficiency

activity during the second quarter. John Crippen was mobilized as task 4 and 5 leader. Our M&E

specialist was mobilized during the quarter along with various engineering disciplines from the

home office to carry out evaluations and assessments under tasks 3, 4 and 5. Subcontracts for our

local partners Consolidated Consultants and Arabtech Jardaneh were under development. A

subcontract for the task 4 and 5 sampling programs at the WWTPs was finalized.

Staff approvals and travel approvals have all proceeded well. Residency and work permits where

required are in process. The tax exemption letter from USAID was received for the Project and it

is being used successfully with vendors and hotels.

(b) Data Collection

Requests for data including record drawings, specifications, population census, survey

information, organization charts, condition and age of equipment and tax information were made

to the responsible agencies. The data collection information received is included in Annex III.

(c) Meetings, Collaboration and Site Visits


Meetings, collaboration and site visits that were conducted during the reporting period are

included in Annex VII.

(d) Monitoring, Evaluation and Learning (MEL) Plan

The development of the draft monitoring, evaluation, and learning (MEL) Plan was ongoing

through the quarter with the assistance of our consultant, monitoring and evaluation (M&E)

Specialist, and meetings with the COR and mission M&E Specialist.

(e) Gender

The development of population projections for the existing and planned areas to be connected to

the Madaba and Ramtha WWTPs to the design year are under development. The projections will

be disaggregated by male and female. We are an equal opportunity employer in our hiring

practices and currently have six males and three females in technical roles and two males and

three females in administrative roles. Our M&E Specialist is female. There were 56 persons in

attendance at the PQM workshop (43 males and 13 females).

(f) Task 1 (Optional) - Red Sea Dead Sea (RSDS) Conveyance Project – Phase II

This optional task will commence when exercised by USAID. This task has not been authorized

by USAID. At a meeting on 17 September 2018, MWI/WAJ explained that the concept design of

the Red Sea- Amman Water Supply project would replace the RSDS Phase II project. The

concept design has been finalized by Dar Al Handasah. Final discussions towards preparation of

BOT bid documents with priority for Component 1 of this new concept between USAID and

MWI/WAJ will take place before this work is authorized.

(g) Task 2 – Construction Supervision – Shedeyyeh–Hasa Water Project Phase I

This task has an estimated November 2018 start date.

(h) Task 3 –Expansion of Zai Water Treatment Plant Project

This task commenced on 1 August 2018 with the main objective of the task being to evaluate the

different options for increasing the capacity of the Zai water supply scheme which will allow for

the anticipated additional water quantities that will be available as a result of the swap agreement

between Jordan and Israel.

Task 3 required direct coordination with MWI/WAJ, to estimate the additional anticipated water

quantities that will be available to be utilized through the Zai water system for the expansion. As

envisioned under Task 3, the additional anticipated water quantities available in the King

Abdullah Canal (KAC) would come from 2 sources:

1. The swap agreement would provide 50 MCM/year to the KAC from Lake Tiberius.

2. The use of treated effluent directly for irrigation in the Jordan Valley would reduce the water

quantities currently taken from the KAC for irrigation purposes.

As a result of a coordination meeting on 17 September 2018 with MWI/WAJ and USAID,

MWI/WAJ advised that the two additional anticipated water quantities planned to be available in


the KAC have not fully materialized to the point where additional water quantities would be

available for expanding of the Zai water treatment system. MWI/WAJ advised that additional

available water quantities in the KAC will be used by the Wadi Arab II Project. Therefore, as

agreed upon, there are currently no plans under Task 3 to expand the system.

The agreed upon plan under task 3 is to complete the Zai water treatment system evaluation with

the intent to identify potential options to upgrade, rehabilitate and provide reliability to the system

for the future. One such option discussed is to propose a parallel transmission pipeline to the

existing 33-year old pipeline from the Intake Pump Station (IPS) to the Zai WTP for system

reliability. A water quality assessment report will also be prepared. During August, we had the

following disciplines perform site visits for the facility existing conditions–process, mechanical,

hydraulics, electrical and instrumentation.

(i) Tasks 4 and 5 –Expansion of Madaba and Ramtha Wastewater Treatment Plants

These two tasks commenced on 1 August 2018. The 2 tasks aim at the expansion of the Madaba

and Ramtha WWTPs to treat the projected wastewater flows until the year 2045. The tasks will

consider population forecasts, and additional wastewater service areas planned to be connected to

the sewer network for Madaba and for Ramtha including proposed connection of the localities of

Turra, Shajarah and Emmrawah. within the planned horizon.

During the reporting period the planned approach was threefold:

1. Data collection – This has been achieved through requests from MWI/WAJ, Miyahuna (for

Madaba) and YWC (for Ramtha).

2. Facility and organizational assessments – This has been achieved with local staff and an O&M

Specialist visiting each of the sites and working with local facility operators.

3. Sampling program – Based on each facility’s mode of operation, develop a 24/7 sampling and

analysis program to determine and verify existing information on the influent and effluent

quality as well as at locations internal to the facility. A subcontract with the RSS to provide

these services has been developed and signing expected early October 2018. The sampling

program for each WWTP will commence in October 2018. The results will be used in

modeling the facility as part of the feasibility study.

At the end of the reporting period the assessment report was in preparation.

(j) Task 6 – Water and Wastewater Project for Deir Alla and Al Karameh

This task has an estimated November 2018 start date. We expect to receive the EIB funded

feasibility study and other documentation developed under the EIB work in November to

commence the design process for those water and wastewater facilities that were recommended in

the feasibility study and agreed upon with MWI/WAJ.

(k) Task 7 – Water and Wastewater Project for Bani Kenanah in Irbid Governorate

This task has an estimated February 2019 start date. The original scope included preparing water


and wastewater planning, feasibility and design and tender documents for this district of Irbid

Governorate.

Our understanding, during the period of task order preparation and negotiation, is that MWI/WAJ

contracted with Atkins and Engicon under EIB funding to prepare a feasibility study for water

and wastewater improvements for the district of Bani Kenanah in the Irbid Governorate.

Therefore, this task will use the feasibility study outcomes and other deliverables required under

the EIB funded work to advance design/implementation of new and upgraded water and

wastewater facilities.

We expect to receive the EIB funded feasibility study and other documentation developed under

the EIB work in February 2019 to commence the design process for those water and wastewater

facilities that were recommended in the feasibility study and agreed with MWI/WAJ.

(l) Task 8 (Optional) – Technical Assistance to Water Utilities

This optional task will commence when exercised by USAID. There have been no activities

identified under this task.

(m) Task 9 (Optional) - Additional Architectural and Engineering (A&E) services





MWI/WAJ advised that Fichtner prepared a feasibility study for the Phase III expansion

of the As Samra WWTP. The feasibility study is understood to include 2 options: 1) the

expansion would be integrated with the existing WWTP and 2) the expansion would be

on the same site as the existing WWTP but would standalone from the existing WWTP.

The existing (original Phase I) WWTP and first expansion (Phase II) were constructed

and are being operated by a Special Purpose Company (SPC) under a BOT contract with

the MWI/WAJ. As part of the feasibility study a cost proposal was provided by the SPC.

At the meeting, MWI/WAJ requested the following assistance:




• Legal review: A review the SPC agreement with MWI/WAJ to advise on the

legal aspects of MWI/WAJ options for the expansion; specifically, the clauses

that may provide the SPC with priority over other contractors on the Phase III

expansion.

MWI/WAJ advised that they are open for a conventional design/bid/build process where

competitive bids can be procured if the funding is secured based on host country contract

basis. At the meeting, MWI/WAJ agreed to provide CDM Smith with all the relevant

documents so it can start working on this activity.


MWI/WAJ requested at the end of the reporting period a non-disclosure agreement

(NDA) from CDM Smith to receive the relevant documents to perform the review.

2. Technical assistance to analyze and design energy interventions to support the water

sector.


MWI/WAJ advised that KfW funded a comprehensive study (by Dorsch) on the energy

efficiency in the water sector, including opportunities and projects for renewable energy.

The attendees agreed that CDM Smith will coordinate with Dorsch to make sure it takes

the intended projects and or recommendations of the KfW study into consideration.

We met with MWI/WAJ, the Dorsch representative and USAID on 23 September 2018

and agreed to follow-on meetings. We requested and received approval from USAID to

have a renewable energy person on TDY status come to Jordan during October 2018 to

assist in scoping out the required technical assistance. Planned activities include:

▪ Provide a GAP analysis to determine what studies and interventions related to

energy efficiency and renewable energy have taken place in the water sector,

▪ Meet with Dorsch, NEPCO, and the RSS, and

▪ Visit the Wadi Shalalah WWTP where it is understood renewable energy on

digestor gas has been implemented.

Other potential activities, discussed at the 17 September 2018 meeting, none of which have been

authorized, included:

• East Aqab Basalt Wellfield

• Ain Ghazal to As Samra WW 1500 mm Pipeline – MWI/WAJ sent an email on 12

October 2018 stating the project would be implemented as a design/build and CDM

Smith would not be required for this work.

b. Reporting Data and DevResults

Geographic information on Tasks 3, 4, and 5 as noted in Annex II are ready to be included in DevResults

once the Project is registered.

Deliverables to date are listed in Annex V.

c. Implementation Challenges and Modifications Made/Issues Addressed from Last

Quarterly Report

The implementation challenges and modifications, both actual and potential, have been discussed above

under paragraph 3.a.

Environmental Status Report: The Programmatic - Initial Environmental Examination (P-IEE) issued

during the RFTOP process provides the umbrella for all activities planned under the task order for USAID

Jordan Water Infrastructure.


4. COLLABORATING AND/OR KNOWLEDGE SHARING

a. Collaboration and/or knowledge sharing with Other USAID Activities and Partner

Entities in Host Government and other Donor Agencies

Meetings, collaboration and site visits that were conducted during the reporting period are included in

Annex VII. In summary the following significant collaboration and knowledge sharing has taken place:

• Coordination meeting with the implementing partner (IP) on the Water Management Initiative

(WMI) to share scopes of services. CDM Smith requested the report WMI was preparing on the

KAC as part of task 3 expansion of the Zai water system. As it was determined that additional

water in the KAC was unavailable for Zai expansion the need for the report was not required.

WMI indicated they may identify needs that cannot be implemented under WMI and they

potentially could be incorporated into USAID Jordan Water Infrastructure.

• A Project Quality Management (PQM) Workshop was held with attendees from USAID,

MWI/WAJ, and other stakeholders and agencies. The PQM provided all attendees with the scope

of services, the opportunity to identify critical success factors and an action plan to meet those

success factors. The PQM also provided insight into other projects ongoing or planned in Jordan.

• A Post Award Orientation meeting was held with USAID. The meeting allowed CDM Smith to

meet with the USAID personnel within the mission offices that we would have contact with

during the project life and to understand the requirements of the task order contract.

• A coordination meeting with MWI/WAJ, Miyahuna and USAID to discuss the USAID Jordan

Water Infrastructure status, scope of services and to receive input from MWI/WAJ on their

priorities for the Project going forward.

• We coordinated with the USAID M&E staff and our M&E consultant to ensure the MEL Plan

under development would meet the data collection needs of the Mission’s Performance

Management Plan (PMP), and the Mission’s annual Performance Plan and Report (PPR).

5. ASSESSMENTS / EVALUATIONS / LESSONS LEARNED

a. List Major Assessments / Internal Evaluations and Lessons Learned and Actions and

Way Forward

• Task 3 Expansion of the Zai Water Treatment Plant Project: Due to the unavailability of

additional expected source water in the KAC the expansion of this facility will not move forward.

What will move forward is defining and recommending potential upgrades and rehabilitation to

provide system reliability improvements to portions of the system that are as much as 33 years

old.

• The MWI/WAJ has a list of priority projects that are being considered by USAID and

MWI/WAJ.


6. PLANNED ACTIVITIES FOR NEXT QUARTER

The following provides an overview of the activities expected to be worked on during the next quarter

that are either common to some or all of the Tasks or are required to perform the overall works of the

Contract. Additionally, engineering activities to be worked on during the reporting period that is specific

to each of the nine tasks are discussed under each Task heading.

a. Proposed Tasks and Activities for the Next Quarter

(a) Mobilization

Staff mobilization will continue during the second quarter of the Project to meet the ongoing

activities and task requirements. Subcontract development for our local partners is ongoing and

where required USAID consent to subcontract will be requested. The need for procuring the

project vehicles will be reviewed – currently we have two project vehicles that were turned over

to this Project from WIP II. The renewable energy and energy efficiency lead will arrive in

October 2018. We will be proposing a task leader for tasks 3, 6 and 7 since task 6 is expected to

commence in November 2018.

(b) Data Collection

Data collection will be an ongoing activity for those tasks authorized and expected to commence

in the second quarter.

(c) Meetings, Collaboration and Site Visits

Meetings, collaboration and site visits will continue to further define scopes and to coordinate our

work with others and to ensure that our performance is in line with USAID and our local client’s

expectations. We are expecting a USAID IP meeting will be scheduled. With the change of

7. BRANDING COMMUNICATIONS AND DISSEMINATION

a. Key Communication Activities - Specific Activities That Reflect Branding Awareness

for USAID

CDM Smith’s communication specialist has been in contact with USAID’s Senior Development Outreach

Specialist regarding publicity protocol, messaging, specific dos and don’ts and the importance of

coordinating our efforts. She also provided information regarding quality information versus quantity and

the importance of a consistent USAID topline message.

b. Branding

The mobilization of our new office has included locating two USAID signs reflecting the appropriate logo

with the words “from the American people”. Additionally, we have worked with the USAID Office of

Outreach and Communications to develop an acceptable poster that is portable for locating at workshops

and other events to show the USAID brand.
