1 Introduction

Hanover is located on the North Western side of Jamaica and is bordered on the
east by St. James, and on the South by the parishes of Westmoreland; the
Caribbean Sea forms the northern and western boundary of the parish. The parish
has a mountainous terrain, with the coastline marked by coves and bays. Hanover
covers an area of 430 km2. The highest point in the parish is the Dolphin's Head,
which serves as a landmark for ships at sea. The parish has three small waterfalls,
several coves, such as the Davis Cove, named after a prominent Hanover family,
along its coastline and large caves. In the centre of Lucea stands a clock tower.
Though it was installed in 1817, it is still fully functional.

. Hanover is known for the production of yams, sugar cane, ginger, rice, pimento,
turmeric, breadfruit and arrowroot. Hanover is celebrated for its fine breeds of cattle.

The principal towns are Lucea, Green Island, Hopewell, and Sandy Bay.
The tourism industry has played a major role in the economic activity of the parish.
A deep-water pier was built, but this has been restricted only to the shipping of molasses. In
1983, the port was closed, but the old Fort Charlotte still stands at one side of the entrance
to the harbour. The major hotels are located along the coastline.
National Water Commission (NWC) produces some 635,457 m3/month of water per
month in Hanover through five (5) surface sources. The average billed volume from
16,813 accounts is only 275,695 m3/month which translates to average non-
revenue water (NRW) of 359,762 m3/month i.e. 57% of production. This
unacceptable level of NRW has had an adverse impact on the level of service
provided to the people of the parish, on its financial performance and that of NWC.
NWC now provides water to some 80.78% of the population in Hanover, which is a
marginal improvement over that in 2001 when the level of coverage was 74%. The
reliability of service to those who are served by NWC is estimated to average 18
hours per day. The average utilization rate of the parish is 79.70%. Total length of
pipeline within the parish is 455 km with varying material types from CI, AC, GI,
PVC, ST and DI.
A Water Supply Improvement plan has been prepared for the parish and is
presented in this document. The WSIP for the parish will involve an expenditure of
$5.4732 billion over the next twenty years in carrying out a number of water supply
rehabilitation and upgrading works. A substantial portion of the proposed works is
aimed at addressing the unacceptable level of NRW through the replacement of
major sections of the aged and undersized water supply infrastructure and

improvement in water supply pressure management. It is planned to increase water
supply coverage to 93% of the parish population by end 2030, reduction in NRW to
30% and service reliability to 24 hours per day at that time.

2 Existing Water Supply System

2.1 Water Resource


Surface Water
Some 100% of the water abstracted in the parish is obtained from surface sources.
The following are the main surface sources in the parish:
Shettlewood Spring
Cascade
New Milns
Logwood
Kendal

2.2 Water Supply Systems


The water supply network throughout the parish is aged and undersized,
contributing to unacceptable level of service there. Information on the water supply
network is summarized in table 2.1 below.

3 NON-REVENUE WATER LEVELS


Set out in figure 3.1 is the annual water balance for Hanover. This was derived from
the water balances that were prepared for each of the water supply systems in the
parish. The water balances are based on flow measurements that were conducted
for sections of the water supply network as well as examinations of customer
records.
NWC water production facilities in the parish provide approximately 7.5 million cubic
meters (1.7 billion gallons) of water per year to the water supply network. Physical
losses amount to 3.5 million cubic meters (0.77 billion gallons) per year. This
represents 46.8% of the amount produced.

6|Page
Draft Hanover WS PPLan – October 12 2011
Revenue water in the parish is only 3.3 million cubic meters, which is 42.6% of the
water produced. The remaining 0.7 million cubic meters relate to commercial
losses.It would be noted that 0.61M cubic meters of water is attributed to
unauthorized consumption (i.e. 8.1% of production). This is largely due to illegal
connections to sections of the water transmission main for use in informal
settlements.

4 Water Requirement

4.1 Parish Population


General
In 2001 the population in Hanover was 67,067, which was a 1.01% increase over the
66,108 in 1991. Based on an annual population growth rate of 1.01%, it is estimated
that the population in the parish in 2010 is 67,884 persons.
There were 16,767 households in 2001 of which 12,228 had piped water (74%). There
are now 16,817 customer accounts. Based on this information, it is estimated there was
a 2% increase in the number of dwellings with piped since 2001, an average annual
increase of 0.4%. It is estimated that 80.8% of the population of the parish now has
piped water.

Demand Centres
The enumeration districts (EDs) that were used in the 2001 population census was used
to establish priority areas that will be targeted to be provided with water supply. EDs
with population densities in excess of 150 persons per square kilometres were grouped
to form these demand centres.

The current water supply situation in Hanover is that, overall, there is insufficient
water in the parish to meet the water requirement, even with the existing technical
losses (leaks, tank overflows, etc). There is a current water supply shortfall of some
2.7 mgd based on the existing water production levels and the water requirement in
the Demand Zones combined.
The average daily water production in the parish is 5.7 mg; the average day water
requirement (domestic, commercial, institutional, etc) in the Demand Zones is
estimated to be 5.8 mgd. Technical losses estimated to be 2.7 mgd.
Set out in the tables below are water supply scenarios based on whether the level
of technical losses are addressed and reduced to 30% at most or the conditions
remain the same. It would be noted that the deficit would increase to 3.8 mgd.

5.1 Expected Benefits
The detailed audit of the Hanover Supply system will provide information that will be
used to help in defining detailed NRW reduction intervention activities. The results
of the audit will be used to target the most critical sections of the parish water
supply system that require attention and assist in scheduling of the required works.
The information will be used to populate the asset database for the parish which will
form a critical part of the asset management system (AMS) that will be established
for Hanover. A fully functional AMS will be a valuable operational tool that can be
used to sustain the benefits that will be derived from the various projects and
activities that are set out in this document.
Improved network infrastructure
• DMAs, pressure zones, SCADA etc.
Improved network data quality (GIS)
Improved asset management planning
High quality and continuous water supply service
Hydraulic network model
Extension of Service areas
Operational Improvements and Energy savings
Utility staff development
• Specialist technical and managerial know-how
• New technology and the know-how to use it efficiently

6.2.4 Water Requirement


The current population in the DC in Hanover that is served by the system is estimated
to be 57,285 persons and this is expected to increase to 68,527 persons by 2030. There is
an existing deficit of 1.0 mgd and it is projected that this will marginally increase to 1.8
mgd by 2030 if the supply conditions remain as they are today .

6.2.5 Addressing the Supply Deficiencies


Some of the issues now being experienced in the Logwood water supply system
include:

• Reduction in flow through the intake to the Logwood plant by up to 20% during
periods of drought

• There is need to provide the additional two raw water pumps for which
provision was made

• The treatment plant is not capable of producing water at its designed 7.5mgd
capacity because only three of eight pumps at clear water well are operational.

27 | P a g e
Draft Hanover WS PPLan – October 12 2011
• Sections on the distribution to Lucea and Negril experience excessively high
pressures and there are losses primarily from the aged asbestos cement and cast
iron type distribution network.
The planned works are presented below.

Treatment Plant and Intake Works Rehabilitation


• Rehabilitation of Intake Works

• Rehabilitation of Logwood Treatment Plant pumping capacity to maximise


production

• Supply of Spare parts and materials to sustain production efficiency capacity


and Preventative maintenance

• Power factor correction at Logwood WTP.

Rehabilitation and expansion of Reservoir


• Rehabilitation and reinstatement of Fish River storage Tank

• Rehabilitation of Malcolm Heights storage Tank to be supplied from Logwood

Water Supply Enhancement


• Brighton Water Supply - Interconnection of the Non Pariel pump station from
the 18 inch diameter pipeline from the Logwood Treatment plant, install
pipeline and pumps to deliver water to Brighton and environs from Nonpariel.
Install 3 km of 150mm pipes, Procure & install a 100,000 gallon water storage
tank and construct a booster station.

• Interconnection from the 18" (coming from Logwood, reaching the Highway) at
the taxi stop in the highway towards Savanna, near to Negril Spots, with the 8"
pipeline that was started four years ago. Interconnection should be provided
with a PRV because the pressure is about 15 bar from the main.

• Basic Telemetry system connecting Red Ground with Logwood WTP. The
system shall be able to show 5 different levels of the reservoir to the operator in
order to decide when to stop 2 pumps and keep running one for network
balanced operation.

• At Negril area, to interconnect and install a 150mm pipeline from the 18" main at
Sweet Spice restaurant with meter and PRV supplying White Hall and the road
towards Orange Hill. This will involve the use of the Redground and Westland
water storage tanks.

Milns, Haddington, Welcome, Top Hill, Cacoon, Temple and Black Gate

6.3.3 Water Requirement


The current population in the DC in Hanover that is served by the New Milns system is
estimated to be 6,550 persons and this is expected to increase to 7,835 persons by 2030.
There is an estimated supply deficit of 0.39 mgd when the water requirement is
compared with the available production. This deficit is expected to increase to 0.48 mgd
by 2030 if the supply conditions remain as they are today .

6.3.4 Addressing the Supply Deficiencies


The water supply infrastructure for the New Milns system is old and leaky, resulting in
a significantly reduced level of service to customers that are supplied by this system.
Also inter-connecting from the Black Gate 100mm gravity pipe supplied from the Great
River Treatment Plant will help address the deficit.
