Baseline Demand/Supply Forecasts 2 Demand/Supply Forecasts Sector Enabling Environment Investment Plan Strategic Roadmap The Lebanese water sector is facing shortcomings both on the infrastructure and management fronts � Constrained resources with suboptimal exploitation, coupled with significant demand growth � Inefficient and poorly maintained systems and networks, leading to high losses and supply interruptions, with a limited focus on demand management � Low coverage of wastewater networks and severe shortage in treatment efficiency Production Transmission & Distribution Wastewater Water Sector Infrastructure 1 2 3 3 � Incomplete implementation of reform law and weak interagency coordination Water Sector Management � Gaps in legal framework delaying private sector participation, water users associations, etc. Institutional Financial & Commercial � Inefficient water supply and irrigation tariffs with low collection rates, and no wastewater tariff yet, increasing pollution and limiting conservation Legal & Regulatory � Climate change negatively impacting water resources Environmental Concerns � Limited conservation activities and high loss percentages Awareness and

Average depends on scale, level of outsourcing as well as productivity Source: IBNET Report and Water and wastewater utilities of the World Current Tariff Structures Absence of volumetric charges is limiting incentives for conservation at the consumer, and production at the WE. No wastewater tariff introduced so far II � Same tariff structure is applied in all four WEs, with slightly different rates; BWE: 118 $/yr (0.32 $/m3), NLWE: 140 $/yr (0.38 $/m3), SLWE: 147 $/yr (0.40 $/m3), BMLWE: 157 $/yr (0.43 $/m3) � Lump-sum flat tariff based on contracted volumes of water, disconnected from real consumption � Although around 10% of the connections in Lebanon are metered, volumetric tariffs based on Water Supply � Volumetric charges prevented by the lack of meters � Lebanon is one of the very few countries in the world still adopting this tariff structure � Lack of volumetric charges limiting conservation incentives at the consumer level, and production incentive at the WE level � Lack of incentive for WEs to reduce losses or Comments 18 Lebanon are metered, volumetric tariffs based on real consumption are still not applied � Customers’ registers are not regularly updated � Low collection rates, variable between WEs � Two tariffs are generally used: • Area Charges: lump sums periodic charges based on area irrigated (from 140 to 650 $/ha/yr) • Volumetric Charges: used in case of pressurized networks, where hydrants are equipped with water meters (from 0.10 to 0.15 $/m3) � Very low collection rates Irrigation � No wastewater tariff applied so farWastewater � Lack of incentive for WEs to reduce losses or increase availability � Increased reliance on expensive private providers � Irrigation is the largest water consumer, with very limited metering, preventing volumetric charges � Lack of awareness on water consumption and conservation � High reliance on undeclared groundwater � Collection not performed effectively b WEs � Does not provide incentive for limiting pollution Gaps in the Current Legal/Regulatory Setup Gaps in legal/regulatory framework are mainly leading to delays in water sector reform and Private Sector Participation in O&M and in capital projects III � Incomplete implementation of Law 221 of 29 May 2000 and its amendments, and the lack of required bylaws to finalize the implementation of the water sector reform � The need to develop required legislation to avoid delays in private sector participation in the water sector, mainly to allow for BOTs in large capital projects � The need to modernize irrigation laws, thus abolishing the Ottoman law of 1913 in a view to 19 � The need to modernize irrigation laws, thus abolishing the Ottoman law of 1913 in a view to facilitate and organize the use of irrigation water, mainly through the creation of Water Users Associations (WUAs) � The need to develop the legal requirements to support strategic priorities in the water sector � The need to achieve the ratification of the Water Code � The need to undertake an in-depth gap analysis of all laws and regulations governing the water sector Environmental issues are affecting water resources with a direct impact on quality � The level of bacteriological contamination differs from a public water source to another, ranging from 0% in certain rural areas to reach 90% around more populated urban areas. � The chemical contamination varies widely among WEs: • Sea water intrusion being a common problem for all the coastal wells raising the issue of high salinity and conductivity problems • Elevated nitrate levels in Bekaa valley • Olive oil residue in the areas of North and South Lebanon • Accidental pollution due to industrial waste and oil intrusion from gasoline State of water quality in Lebanon IV Water Quality and Pollution 20 Source: MEW, UNICEF • Accidental pollution due to industrial waste and oil intrusion from gasoline stations � Inadequate domestic sewage disposal, predominantly discharged in the environment without treatment; 70% of all natural sources with bacterial contamination � Overexploitation of water resources due to excessive drilling and pumping (mainly concentrated in coastal area and Bekaa) � Excessive use of fertilizers and unregulated application of pesticides � Direct discharge of industrial effluent into the environment (concentrated along the coast, in Mount Lebanon, in the Bekaa valley and Litani water shed) � Open dumping Pollution sources Strategic objectives for the Lebanese water sector “Ensure water supply, irrigation and sanitation services over all the Lebanese territory on continuous basis and at optimal service levels, with a commitment to environmental, economic and social sustainability” Production � Maximize the potential and improve the quality of surface water resources � Improve management and protection of groundwater resources, moderate extractions, promote artificial recharge, and consider this resource as a strategic reserve Fulfill deficits through groundwater and/or surface storage Infrastructure Institutional and Organizational � Support a full implementation of the water sector reform and improve on the management model between WEs and MEW � Improve on capital spending responsibilities, inter-agency coordination and spending efficiency � Improve the management of the irrigation sector Management 1 I II “Water: A right for every citizen, a resource for the whole country”Vision Mission Objectives this resource as a strategic reserve � Fulfill deficits through groundwater and/or surface storage according to potential and availability per region;

at a first stage (2011-2020) Artificial Groundwater Recharge - Rationale � Groundwater aquifers in Lebanon are highly exploited, mainly in Beirut, Tripoli, South Lebanon and the Bekaa. � Around 500 MCM/yr are being naturally replenished. Current extractions amount to around 700 MCM/yr leading to a deficit of around 200 MCM/yr. As a result, the water table is depleting with saline water intrusion in coastal areas � Karstic aquifers are well spread all over Lebanon and Potential for Artificial Groundwater Recharge (MCM/yr) 43 55 42 60 200 49 � Karstic aquifers are well spread all over Lebanon and contain considerable volumes of water � Groundwater is a localized resource with no surface evaporation and does not involve large transmission systems � Artificial recharge is technically feasible in a large portion of the country � Pilot projects can be started near Beirut, Tripoli and Baalbek. The situation in South Lebanon requires deeper consideration � Preliminary studies show that each well could have a potential flow of 50-100 l/s during a period of at least 3 months CAPEX Forecast for Artificial Groundwater Recharge (MUSD, 2011-2035) 43 42 BML North South Bekaa Total 28 35 27 38 128 BML North South Bekaa Total Up to 670 MCM of static storage (~880 MCM dynamic) can be achieved in identified sites Potential for Surface Storage (MCM) CAPEX Forecast for Surface Storage (MUSD) Boqaata El Janneh Moukhada Ratiba Bared Qarkaf Kouachra Noura El Tahta Kamoua Atolbe Mseilha Balaa Iaal Brissa Dar Boochtar Ouadi Chich Hadat Jebbe Yammoune Younine Assi Phase I Assi Phase II Chabrouh Laqlouq Water conveyance from dams is mainly done by gravity and results in energy savings 208 171 190 98 667 339 257 190 98 884 BML North South Bekaa Total Static Dynamic 50 960 682 626 386 2,654 BML North South Bekaa Total Opex Forecast for Surface Storage (MUSD/yr) 52 25 13 6 96 BML North South Bekaa Total Boqaata Manzoul Bisri Kaysamani Aazounieh Maaser Chouf Damour Kfarhouna Lebaa Azibeh Jarjou Chohour Jinsnaya Ibl Es Saki Khardali Kfarsir Barhacha Ain Aarab Salaa Massa Chabrouh Dam Hill Lake Surface storage potential per WE Total BML Designation of Dam Static-Dynamic Cap.

Where metering is not feasible at this time, base water charges on a combination of a fixed charge to cover the basic services, and other charges which can be used as a proxy for the volume of water used, such as crop grown and/or hourly use of water ‒ Carrying out periodic public awareness campaigns to inform policy makers and farmers of water shortages that could be faced, and the need for conserving irrigation water Irrigation Scheme Water Establishment “Irrigation Department” Water Users Association (WUA ) � O&M of scheme at the secondary and tertiary levels � Collection of water fees � Payment of fees to the WE responsible for providing the bulk water and other services � Water quality management and pollution control stations often well above the farmers’ capacities � Assistance to WUAs in the O&M of irrigation schemes, especially those which are in bad state of repair Baseline Demand/Supply Forecasts 64 Demand/Supply Forecasts Sector Enabling Environment Institutional and Organizational Initiatives Financial and Commercial Initiatives Legal and Regulatory Initiatives Environmental Concerns Investment Plan Strategic Roadmap Tariffs structures will be reviewed to reflect value for real consumption and provide incentives for water saving Water Supply � Lebanon is one of the very few countries still adopting a flat tariff structure � Volumetric charges prevented by lack of meters � Lack of volumetric charges limiting conservation incentives at the consumer level, and production/leakage reduction incentives at the WE level � Increased reliance on expensive private Key Highlights of Current Tariff Structures 2.1. Water Supply � Implement a new consumption-based tariff which includes fixed and variable (volumetric) charges for connections equipped with customer water meters, where: ‒ Current lump-sum tariff should be temporarily maintained for unmetered customers ‒ No tariff increase would be introduced before concrete improvements are brought to the water sector (i.e. 2014) ‒ Any future tariff increase should be based on a proper cost analysis to cover, at a minimum, O&M cost in 2014 as a first stage Initiative # II.2 65 � Increased reliance on expensive private providers Irrigation � The largest water consumer, with very limited metering, preventing volumetric charges � Lack of awareness on water consumption and conservation � High reliance on undeclared groundwater � Collection not performed effectively by WEs Wastewater � Tariff not yet applied, leading to a lack of incentive for limiting pollution to cover, at a minimum, O&M cost in 2014 as a first stage 2.2. Irrigation � Design and implement alternative irrigation tariff structures based on the specificities of existing and projected irrigation schemes, where volumetric metering would be the preferred solution wherever possible 2.3. Wastewater � Apply a new wastewater tariff to customers connected to a sewer network and to a WWTP, where: ‒ New tariff should be based on a proper cost analysis and cover at a minimum O&M cost in an intermediate stage, with an introductory tariff initially in pilot areas where full service (collection and treatment) is available ‒ Wastewater charges to be introduced as a percentage of water bill Different options for Private Sector Participation (PSP) will be considered according to sector maturity Highlights � Given the current efficiency levels and low tariff collection, Management Contract would be a common starting point for PSP in the downstream sub sector. It would prepare WEs for Full cost recovery Water Sector Lease Concession / BOT Divestiture / BOO 66 sector. It would prepare WEs for more advanced forms of PSP � Production/ Upstream is typically a more mature sub sector and is suitable for more advanced PPP schemes (e.g., dams, WWTPs) Responsibility of Private Sector Asset ownership with operational and commercial responsibility No asset ownership; with operational responsibilities Low cost recovery Water Sector Maturity Service Contract Management Contract Lease While PSP is likely to be one of the main enablers of improvement, it should be supported by a holistic reform approach Select and implement suitable PSP approach � Introduce private sector to increase efficiency, improve service and ensure continuous and general access to quality water 1 2 67 � Review role of existing institutions � Design new institutions to support PSP and reform initiatives � Restructure and reorganize institutions Review water sector policies Improve Institutional Setting � Review policies related to water usage and resources, tariffs, water quality and environment, and investment climate 2 3 A number of shortcomings need to be addressed to ensure success of PSP initiatives 2.4. Provide support in developing the adequate legal institutional and regulatory setting to promote PSP, in a way to ensure the interests of the Government and the Lebanese population, and provide an attractive environment to the private sector, through: ‒ Finalizing legal texts, existing or under development and developing any additional legislation Initiative # II.2 (Cont’d) � Lebanon still lags behind a number of countries in the MENA region who have already an experience in PSP � The legal framework governing PPP activities in not yet ready � While PSP is likely to be one of the main enablers of improvement, it should be supported by achieving a holistic reform and a sound enabling environment Key Lessons Learnt 68 legislation ‒ Ensuring needed approvals from relevant authorities 2.5 Ensure the readiness of the water sector from all aspects (e.g., institutional, organizational, financial, legal and regulatory) to guarantee the success of future transactions (this initiative is addressed throughout this strategy document) holistic reform and a sound enabling environment � The participation of the private sector is seen as an enabler to incorporate know-how and fresh capital � Given inefficiency and low tariff collection, Management Contracts would be a starting point for PSP in the downstream sub-sector.
