YAP-II Activity Details
ENGINEERING TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER (ETT) TO URBAN LOCAL BODIES (ULBS) IN HARYANA
Under YAP-I, sewerage facilities were created in six towns of Haryana: Yamunanagar-Jagadhri, Karnal, Panipat, Sonepat, Faridabad and Gurgaon. The responsibility for O&M of these assets is vested with the respective ULB in each town. To operate & maintain such assets properly, the techno-managerial resources / capacity of such ULBs are needed to be enhanced. With this in mind, “Engineering Technology Transfer (ETT) to ULBs” has been initiated under YAP-II.
To enhance the process of ETT to ULBs, there will be a field training programme to train ULB engineers and technical staff on various aspects of sewerage works. To facilitate wide exposure of different components of the sewerage systems, construction of new systems with sewers of varied diameter & length, ancillary structures like pumping stations, and upgrading of electro-mechanical systems etc. have been proposed to be included in the training program.
This is the most effective method of transfer of knowledge/skills through on the job training and practical applications. It is essentially learning by doing and enables day-to-day association, interaction and communication with PHED/ ULBs Engineers and the consultants to be appointed.
PREPARATION OF M/P, F/S, & DPR OF WASTEWATER SCHEMES IN U.P. and HARYANA
M/P for sewerage and drainage works, F/S and DPR for sewerage work will be prepared for the identified 8 towns in U.P. and 8 towns in Haryana. All the existing works including YAP-I will be integrated under the M/P, the design period for which will be 30 years. F/S will focus on the priority works from the M/P. In addition, DPRs will be prepared for implementation under YAP-III.
INSTITUTIONAL STRENGTHENING & CAPACITY BUILDING (ISCB) OF ULBs IN DELHI, U.P. AND HARYANA
ISCB of the ULBs under YAP-II is an important value added constituent. This programme encompasses enhancement of institutional financial and human resources capacities of the ULBs to ensure that they undertake the responsibility of O&M of assets created under YAP-I in a sustainable manner. The positive results and lessons learnt from the Pilot Reform Fund project initiated in Agra under YAP-I will be incorporated into the YAP-II programme. This component, will therefore focus, on a demand – driven approach, wherein the ULBs assess the reform initiatives required, and seek funds available under the Reform Fund, for implementing those initiatives.
Usage of High Resolution Satellite Imagery
To encourage the creation of common reference maps for the towns in which the projects are being undertaken, recent high-resolution satellite imagery is being acquired and would be provided to the PIAs for the project works. Using this approach the maps of the existing and proposed sewerage system will be superimposed on a correctly geo-referenced base map making it possible for the ULBs to systematically add and correlate other spatial information for their routine activities.
The high-resolution satellite imagery of the entire cities and towns will be used as the foundation to develop a comprehensive Property Tax System, which would facilitate strengthening of the revenue collection system of ULBs. In addition, this imagery will also be used to document the information on Slum Areas, Dairy Farms, Dhobighats, Crematoria, Slaughterhouses, Urban Water Bodies etc. in Delhi.
Training of Sugam Kendra Staff of MCD
MCD intends to leverage information and communication technologies (ICT) to provide efficient, affordable, accountable and transparent municipal services to the people of Delhi. Training will be imparted to the officers and staff who are responsible for interfacing with the public and providing necessary information and services pertaining to civic activities.
This initiative will bring the MCD’s e-governance programme into public focus and help in their success through thirteen specially developed Citizen Service Bureaus covering 134 wards. This unique public service initiative of MCD will provide comprehensive citizen services under one roof through computerized systems that are connected to the Internet.
