Rehabilitation and Extension of Sewers Networks and Pumping Stations
To meet the growing need for sewer network expansion and wastewater infrastructure rehabilitation, the Tunisian National Sanitation Utility Office National de l’Assainissement (ONAS) launched efforts in 10 governorates: Bizerte, Jendouba, Siliana, Beja, El Kef, Zaghouan, Sfax, Kebili, Kasserine, and Sidi Bouzid.
The project Design for the Rehabilitation and Extension of Sewers Networks and Pumping Stations in Kebili Governorate, focuses on six municipalities in Kebili: Kebili, Kebili Nord, Douz, Douz Sud, El Golaa, and Jemna. It includes the rehabilitation and extension of sewer networks and wastewater pumping stations, improving sanitation services for residents.
By expanding safely managed sanitation, the project aims to reduce health risks, prevent waterborne diseases, and improve overall public health.
