4 5.1 Training Courses for 25 Technicians in each Target Country National trainings combining data collection methodology, utilization of the DSS, and a focus on the country specific issues of Water Cycle Management. Phase 1: At least 25 technicians for each country will be selected by the local partners among key actors for the realization of the pilot actions Phase 2: The training course will last 5 days, with 1 technical staff from ENEA and 1 from UNic (at month 9) Phase 3: A technical training manual will be realized and printed in 110 copies. Results: 100 persons have participated to the Training (at least 10% of them are then directly involved in the pilot actions) 4

5 5.2 Site Identification LEBANON Area 10,452 Km 2 Coastline of 225 Km Lebanon is divided into four distinct physiographic regions: Coastal plain Lebanon Mountain Beqaa valley Anti Lebanon Mountains Lebanon has 16 rivers 13 rivers originate on the western face of the Lebanon range and run into the Mediterranean Sea, the other three arise in the Beqaa Valley 5

6 5.3 Setting up 1 Monitoring Programme in Lebanon The monitoring programme will be carried out on the coast and on the river Phase 1a: A monitoring programme on the freshwater/seawater interface is set up. 2 campaigns for assessing the contamination from heavy metals will be carried out in two sampling stations selected for each of the three rivers and in the coastal areas. Bacteriological and physic chemical parameters, organic pollutants and nutrients will be investigated in all the sampling stations 6

7 5.3 Setting up 1 Monitoring Programme in Lebanon Phase 1a: A monitoring programme on the freshwater/seawater interface is set up. 2 campaigns for assessing the contamination from heavy metals will be carried out in two sampling stations selected for each of the three rivers and in the coastal areas. Bacteriological and physic chemical parameters, organic pollutants and nutrients will be investigated in all the sampling stations Phase 1b: On the Orontes Basin (Hermel) a set of targeted interventions is implemented (notably improvements of 4,5km of sewage system, trout farms management, availability of less impacting inputs and adoption of constructed wetland (phyto depuration system) at the outflow of trout farms. Phase 2: The results of the monitoring campaigns will be used to test the implementation of the DSS on the correlations between local elaboration of actions and the need for water monitoring. 7

8 5.2 Site Identification PALESTINE Activities implemented on the Waste water treatment plant in West Beni Zeid Municipality, Ramallah Governorate, that includes the villages of Der Ghassana and Beit Rima Fresh water very limited (one day a week available) Cost of water very high 1.7$/cubic meter No agriculture water available OBJECTIVES: To provide alternative resources to fresh water for irrigation purposes To protect the environment by replacing cesspits by sewage networks while protecting aquifers from pollution 8

9 5.4 Setting up 1 Water Treatment System in Palestine A Water Treatment System will be implemented and monitored Phase 1: a water treatment plant will be implemented and its efficiency monitored (4 monitoring campaigns realized) through the study of the main water parameters (chemical and physical). Upcoming activities: plantation of trees in November, as this is the right period for plantation Next: socioeconomic questionnaires Presentation to the Stakeholders Training course Awareness Campaign: 6 schools have been selected Phase 2: The results of the monitoring campaigns will be used to test the implementation of the DSS on the correlations between local elaboration of actions and the need for water monitoring. 9

10 5.2 Site Identification JORDAN Balqa Governorate is located to west part of AMMAN It is suffering from lack of water due to the overall shortage water in Jordan and to its elevation and hard sloppy areas The mounts areas where the Project is being implemented receive relatively good rainfall (average btwn mm/yr) This amount provides good opportunity to implement water harvesting project at household level 10

11 5.5 Setting up 1 Water Management System in Jordan A Water Management System will be implemented and monitored Phase 1: practical solutions will be implemented for improving local water management and livelihood situation of the local residents. The selection of 24 households will let saving water (rehabilitation of roofs, providing tank, cleaners, etc.) Objective of the action: to harvest the water from top roofs and store the water in cistern nearby the house in order to use the stored water in domestic activities. In order to maximize the benefit of the project, activities will be implemented with the field support of local CBOs Phase 2: The results of improving water management systems will be used to test the implementation of the DSS on the correlations between local elaboration of actions and the need for water monitoring. 11

12 5.5 Setting up 1 Water Management System in Jordan NOTE RELEASED by Sameeh NUIMAT (IUCN Jordan) As you are aware of the water shortage in Jordan and the water situation in Balqa Governorate made clear during field visit to the project area in Balqa governorate; I would like to draw your attention to the following facts: Most of Jordan drinking water coming from ground water resource and subjected to contamination 60 million cubicle meter/year pumped from Balqa to Amman city in addition to 30 MCM/Y consumed in the Governorate 100 MCM/ YEAR of water coming from other regions is blended with water from Balqa to comply the Jordanian drinking water standards Water losses is about 45% in Jordan and in Balqa Gov. (leakage and illegal use) 12

13 5.5 Setting up 1 Water Management System in Jordan About 40% of the population in Balqa Governorate are not connected to sanitation system and use un lined cesspits which increase the probability of seepage contaminants to the ground water (MONITORING SYSTEM IS NECESSARY) The topography in Balqa Gov. is hard and water distribution is un efficient due to variation pressure between low and high area Non constant water supply to the residence in Balqa Gov. (one day per week ) The population of Jordan doubled during the last 3 year (refugee ) putting high pressure on limited water resources Water resources are very limited low rain fall, low ground water recharge, high temperature, high evaporation, high estraction of ground water All above mentioned factors emphasise the necessity of the capacity building of the GIS Unit in Balqa governorate to be used as DSS and to detect the leakages in water reticulation system and for the good monitoring and management of water resource. 13

14 ITALY 5.2 Site Identification The Marsh of Torre Flavia is located in the center of Italy, 2 Km from the town of Ladispoli, 45 Km to Roma. It is a remarkable wetland for the safeguard of the migratory avifauna and for the preservation of the last stretch of the ancient "maremma". Residual strips of an ancient sandy dune separate the marsh form the sea. An artificial jetty currently links to the coast the ruins of the ancient Torre Flavia, now isolated at about 80 meters from the beach because of coastal erosion. 14

15 5.6 Setting up a Cost Benefit Analysis in Italy The auto depurative capacity of the natural wetland Torre Flavia will be evaluated and monitored Phase 1: A monitoring programme is set up with 4 seasonal campaigns for assessing the water quality on a transect from freshwater input to the outlet. The auto depurative capacity of the natural wetland is evaluated through ecological models. Phase 2: The results of monitoring campaigns and models will be used to carry out a feasibility study on the recovery of the wetland. Phase 3: The results of improving water management systems will be used to test the implementation of the DSS on the correlations between local elaboration of actions and the need for water management. 15

16 A 5.9 Awareness Campaign Phase 1: The three NGOs (Haliéus, ACPP and ARCS) will amplify the pilot actions results involving the populations of the 3 Mediterranean Partner Countries. Phase 2: With the support of the Water Right Foundation, drafting a training toolkit/material, training courses for 36 teachers for each MPC, drafting campaign tools targeting secondary school students, drawing contest among the 18 schools in the 3 countries will be realized. Objective: To raise awareness among young people about the key concepts of saving/reuse of water, keeping in mind climate change and pollution issues Beneficiaries: maximum 100 students/school, 6 schools in each country (Palestine, Lebanon and Jordan) and 5 teachers in each school: total of students and 90 teachers. 16
