CoCT’s implementation strategies, with regard to new water and sanitation infrastructure,
should be to:

Take the recommended projects, as identified through the Water and Sewer Master
Plans and WSDP into account during the planning and prioritization process for new
infrastructure. Prioritize from the desired list, those items which can be implemented from
available funding in the particular financial year.

Assign a high priority to the provision of basic water and sanitation services in the
informal areas.

Assign a high priority to the implementation of CoCT’s WDM Strategy (Demand
Management), which has been developed, in order to postpone additional capital
investment for as long as possible, both from the water availability perspective as well as
from the treatment of increased effluent volumes.
