YAP-I Assets

Under YAP-I, the components of infrastructure involved construction of Drain Interceptors, Diversion Sewer Lines, Sewage Pumping Stations (PS), and Sewage Treatment Plants (STP). 32 STPs were constructed and a total sewage treatment capacity of about 735 MLD was created. During the extended phase of YAP-I, more emphasis was given to address various non-sewerage issues. The strategy for these was formulated under the Special Assistance for Project Implementation (SAPI) study conducted by JBIC.A Public Participation & Awareness (PP&A) programme was launched to generate awareness among the beneficiaries in the project area. The plan also emphasized the creation of Community Toilet Complexes (CTCs) for low-income groups. In addition, a number of pilot projects on innovative technologies for decentralised sewage treatment and coliform removal were also implemented.
