This will lead to a vastly increased quantity
available for Basra Governorate, with the aim
being 400 litres per person per day. In Maysan,
Muthanna and Thi Qar provinces, a series of
contracts will be refurbishing existing works and
installing new compact units and reverse osmosis

• Minor population centres serviced by septic tanks
  and private or state tankering disposal service.

21
Opportunities

• Process waste can be received for disposal
• Refurbishment contracts civil and ME
• Prospects of contractingout of non-core
  activities (eg, jetting, tankering, vehicle

Solid Waste Management

• BUT
• Serious disruption by the war and the subsequent
  looting.
• Waste management now very ineffective, largely
  broken down
• Widespread open dumping

  collection, waste treatment and disposal
• Construction of infrastructure
• Landfills (incl. leachate treatment, gas control)
• Waste transfer stations
• Waste Processing e.g. Material Recovery
  facilities, Compost Plants, Thermal Treatment
• Workshops, depots

32
Solid Waste Management

• Opportunities
• Service provision contracts for street
  cleansing, collection, treatment, disposal, waste
  recovery
• Public/Private partnerships/funding
• Project Management tender preparation, design,
  bid evaluation, construction supervision
• Training technology transfer

Generation

• All main units have been overhauled
• Smaller units that have not operated for years
  are now being overhauled
• From a position of approximately 3000MW last
  summer throughout Iraq, should be in the region
  of 6000MW this summer, specifically around 1400MW
  in South.

  especially because of the improvement of the
  standard of living, eg, white goods.
• 10M contract to be awarded soon for distribution
  sub-stations within Basra
• Smaller contracts to be awarded in other 3
  Governorates
• Street lighting also included under distribution
  company.
