Water Supply and Sanitation Adriatic Coast Programme

Since 1999 the Government of the Federal Republic of Germany under its official bilateral cooperation has committed substantial financing to support the water and sewage sector of the coastal area of Montenegro. This programme has been conducted in phases and while investment Phases I and II have been completed Phases III, IV and V, Component 1, are currently under implementation. The overall objective of the programme is to contribute to the economic development of Montenegro by supporting tourism development in the project area, as well as enhancing the protection of the environment and of water resources and establishing a sustainable structure for service provision in the water sector at the Montenegrin Coast. 

The project “Water Supply and Sanitation Adriatic Coast Programme, Montenegro”, covers the next investment phase, Phase V, Component 2 and focuses mainly on the water supply system, the sewage and stormwater systems and sludge disposal in Tivat, Kotor and Herceg Novi. It aims to provide universal, equitable and affordable safe drinking water to the population of Tivat, Kotor and Herceg Novi and to improve the sewage disposal, covering demand peaks in the summer months caused by tourism.
