7) Design criteria
8) Population projection and water demand estimation
9) Water supply system variants (a summary can be presented if a
detailed feasibility report exists)
Water source investigations: Water quantity and quality for
both ground and surface water sources including
sustainability considerations
Appraisal of the technically feasible variants
Financial analysis of the variants taking into account
investment costs, O&M costs, residual values etc.
10) Detailed design drawings including all variants of the following
water supply system components for the selected option
Raw water intake or production well
Raw water transmission
Design Report Contents (..continued)
Water treatment unit operations and processes (major or
minor treatment depending on the raw water quality)
Treated water transmission
Water storage tanks or reservoirs
Pumping stations and booster stations
Distribution system (pipelines, connections)
• The network design shall be based on the design criteria in the report
using state of the art software for network modelling(the use of
widely used software such as WaterCAD, and EPAnet is
recommended). All structural drawings with all the required details
shall be prepared for all major works including reinforced concreted
structures, concrete structures, steel structures and stone masonry
structures. Structural drawings for all reinforced concrete works must
have a bar bending schedule
11) Environmental Impact Assessment

Capital investment cost
Investment per capita
Design Report Contents (..continued)
O&M costs
Financial analysis and tariff determination
• The cost estimates in the design report shall be based on the BoQ
prepared using plausible unit prices in Uganda.
13) Development and management strategy for the water supply
system
Proposed development strategy depending on the resource
envelop and water supply infrastructure components
Proposed management for the water supply option
14) Appendices (minimum requirement)
General layout, layout of the transmission and distribution
network
Detailed hydraulic calculations for both peak hourly and static
conditions
Detailed structural calculations
With:
Popi : Population at time horizon i
Pop: Population in the year of calculation
grpop : Yearly growth rate of the population as an
absolute figure (if used as a percentage, then
divide by100 before performing the sum inside
the brackets)
i: The difference between the year the calculation
is for and the year serving as a starting base
