2.25 mld STP at Agra Site of YAP project Shram Dan by School Children in Vrindavan Workshop on Sensitization about PP&A programme<br />
created, it was designed for 1998 population loads.<br />
A pilot project in Agra Nagar Nigam was undertaken to enhance the revenue<br />
generation by conceptualizing the best practices from other ULBs in the country. Its<br />
successful implementation and sustained municipal reform measures were achieved by<br />
working in the area of property tax, private sector participation in O&M of municipal<br />
services, etc.<br />
YAP-II: THE PROJECT CONTINUATION AND ENHANCEMENT<br />
PHASE<br />
Building on the success and lessons learned from YAP-I, a new Loan Agreement between<br />
GOI and GOJ was signed on March 31, 2003 for the current YAP-II project.The JBIC<br />
Loan Agreement provided financial assistance of JPY 13.33 Billion (approx. Rs. 500<br />
Crore or approximately 85 percent of the overall project budget) to increase sewage<br />
collection and treatment capacities by constructing new & rehabilitating old sewage<br />
treatment plants and rehabilitating & installing sewers in Delhi and Agra. Besides the 15<br />
JBIC assisted YAP-I towns, two more towns, Bahadurgarh and Rohtak of Haryana have<br />
also been added in YAP-II for the preparation of Master Plan (M/P), Feasibility Study(<br />
F/S), Detailed Project Reports (DPRs) for YAP-III.The YAP-II project commenced on<br />
December 1, 2004 with the appointment of PMC.The project is to be completed by<br />
November 2009.<br />
YAP-II envisages a two fold strategies in pollution control and abatement for<br />
Yamuna:<br />
Implement schemes, which have visible and tangible impact on the immediate<br />
improvement of water quality of the river.<br />
Carry out planning activities for future such as preparation of M/P, F/S and DPRs for<br />
YAP-III<br />
Synchronize engineering and non-engineering components<br />
Specific value-added-components included in YAP-II are as follows:<br />
PP&A Programmes on public involvement in decision making process by utilizing<br />
numerous NGOs<br />
Public Relations / Information Programme in Delhi<br />
Engineering Technology Transfer to ULBs in Haryana<br />
Institutional Strengthening & Capacity Building of the 15 ULBs<br />
Capacity Building for NRCD, which is the Executing Agency for the project<br />
Water Quality Monitoring Programme<br />
Table-3 summarizes the scope of programmes and budget included in YAP-II, with Delhi as<br />
the major polluter receiving a proportionally higher share.<br />
INNOVATIONS IN YAP-II<br />
Adopting Trenchless Technology for Delhi Trunk Sewers<br />
For many years, the conventional method for construction of sanitary sewers to collect<br />
wastewater has been trenching or open-cut excavation. New methods of obtaining<br />
geotechnical data and the development of new equipment have resulted in the adoption of<br />
innovative trenchless (no-dig) approaches involving earth boring, pipe jacking or microtunneling<br />
techniques with a minimum or no surface excavation.This new construction<br />
method results in social costs being reduced to a nominal amount compared to the opencut<br />
methods. Such technology is being adopted for rehabilitation and new construction of<br />
three major Trunk Sewers in Delhi under YAP-II programme.<br />
