Water Works Design and Supervision Enterprise The coverage of population in Ethiopia with safe water is about 26%; proper sanitation approaches to 12% with urban areas taking most of the services; but in the Administrative Council, the coverage figures in the sub-sector i.e. water supply and sanitation in both rural and urban settings are conflicting; however in most reports it is specified that the rural water supply is 24%, rural sanitation 3% and urban water supply 68% and urban sanitation 75 % coverage level. In the Administrative Council, Rural water supply is under the full mandate of the Water, Mines and Energy Office and Urban water supply is under the accountability of Dire Dawa Water Supply and Sewerage Service Office, on the other hand, the sanitation management in the Councilal council is fragmented, solid waste collection and disposal is under the Health Office, while faecal sludge collection and disposal is under the Water Supply and Sewerage Office and urban drainage lines construction and maintenance is under the Town Administration Office. In the Administrative Council, in the rural vicinities, there exist in total 154 rural water supply schemes, out of which 26% are not functional at this time, primarily due to water shortage and spare parts problems. 2.10 Economic Performance And Investment a) Council Economic Performance In the current decentralization process, the Council is given power and responsibility for budgetary function under the proclamation number 33/92 of the TGE. The financial source of the Council include public finance (local and treasury); loan from bilateral and multilateral sources; NGOs and in some cases community contribution. The current source of income for the Council is mainly from the revenue collected in the form of tax and the non-tax income. That is tax collected (includes the direct and indirect tax) and the non-tax income which is derived from license/permit fee, sales of services, property, income on investment, pension, and miscellaneous .income. The second source is the annual budget supplemented /allocated for the Council from the federal government. The Council has two categories of expenditures: recurrent and capital expenditure. The former one is meant to cover salaries and operating expenses of the sector offices/institutions organized under the Council while the latter include expense of project activities of capital nature/non recurrent. The data obtained from the Finance Office are compiled and presented on Table 14. Phase II- Data Collection - Site Investigation Survey & Analysis – DDAC - Main Report 40
