The Indonesia
Urban Water Sanitation and Hygiene (IUWASH) project is a sixty-month program
(2011 – 2016) funded by the United States Agency for International Development
(USAID) and implemented under the leadership of DAI. IUWASH works with
government, the private sector, NGOs, community groups and other stakeholders
to improve access to safe water supply and sanitation in Indonesia’s urban
areas. The overall goal of IUWASH is to assist the Government of Indonesia
(GOI) in making significant progress in achieving its safe water and sanitation
Millennium Development Goal (MDG) targets by expanding access to these
services.
To achieve the
above, assistance provided by the project is divided under three main technical
components, including:
- Mobilizing demand for WatSan service delivery;
- Improving and expanding capacity for WatSan service delivery; and
- Strengthening policy and the financial enabling environment for improved water supply and sanitation service delivery.
IUWASH will apply
different approaches and interventions with its local partners, such as local
Water utilities, local and national government institutions, NGOs and
communities to address water, sanitation and hygiene. To achieve these
objectives IUWASH need high caliber incumbent to fill the positions of
Name of Position: WATER DISTRIBUTION
NETWORK SPECIALIST
Job Code: WDNS-TNG
Type of Employment: Short Term
Technical Assistance (STTA)
Total Level of Effort: 50
days LOE
Location: Tangerang
Background STTA Assignment
Under Partnership of Agreement between
The Government of Kabupaten Tangerang with IUWASH, mentioned that Government of
Kabupaten Tangerang and IUWASH share common roles in an effort to improve urban
water and sanitation. One of the common role is IUWASH provide technical
assistance to Perusahaan Daerah Air Minum Tirta Kerta Raharja (PDAM TKR) Kabupaten
Tangerang, an entity that owned by The Government of Kabupaten Tangerang. One
of assistance that can be provided by IUWASH is the study of distribution pipe network
analysis in Service Areas 1, 2 and 3.
PDAM TKR has 120,780 customers (March
2014). PDAM TKR plans to increase service coverage and develop services in
Service Areas 1, 2 and 3, where
customers are mixed from low-income communities, housing estates and commercial
customers. In these areas, PDAM TKR will increase about 24,000 customers. For
the above plan, the
addition of water capacity will be
required. The addition of water
capacity will be filled by
uprating of 300 liters/second of the WTP Cikokol (from 1,275 liters/second will be uprated to
1,575 liters/second). The WTP uprating
will be implemented and financed by private partner of PDAM (PT. Tirta Kencana
Cahaya Mandiri).
With the large increase in the number
of customers and also with low pressure and high in NRW number (35%) condition,
it would require a study of distribution pipe network analysis in Service Area 1,
2 and 3. This study will be conducted to determine the ability of the existing piping
network conditions in areas of study related to additions of 24,000 customers. This
study is also to determine what steps needed to reduce the number of NRW. PDAM
TKR is committed to implementing what will be recommended by the study. PDAM
TKR will finance it with its own funds.
Objectives
To optimize the planning and
development of existing primary and secondary distribution pipeline network of PDAM Tirta
Kerta Raharja Kabupaten Tangerang in Service Area 1, 2 and 3 in anticipation of
additional 24.000 customers and to support their plans to increase production capacity of water, so the water distribution
services to customers can be
improved and better to meet the applicable standard of
good quantity, quality, continuity
and water pressure.
