  21. B: Key Challenges RBIG • Implementing Agent • Lack of Required/Expected Capacity by other WBs. • Non-compliance of WBs with Implementing Agent Fees, as per Departmental Delegations. • Contractors • Incompetent Contractors appointed in some projects. • Lack of Financial Capacity and cashflow management by some contractors • Approval of Feasibility/ IRS • Delays in approval process of projects as study phase. • IA Agreements • Lack of common understanding of certain clauses within the standard agreements. • Lack of ESKOM power supply by project • Negative effect on project programming, as a result of ESKOM delays

  22. B: Key Challenges • MWIG • Delays in appointment of service providers due to WSAs’ SCM processes. • Lack of progress and expenditure by most WSAs. • Some WSAs want to change Business Plans due to communities refusing the level of service i.e. demanding water reticulation (standpipes) instead of water tanks. • WSAs wanting to shift funds in between projects. • NTP • Procurement processes by the municipalities take very long, so the projects implementation starts very late.

  23. B: Key Challenges • ACIP • The main challenge in all municipalities is proper metering of BULK, ZONE and DOMESTIC METERING • This makes the determination of water losses and water savings basically impossible!!!!! • Technical and Finance sections not working together aggravates the problem!!! • Meter readings atrocious in most municipalities!! • Region understaffed in WCDM section!!!!! • Technical Sections of the WSAs often have high vacancy rate and incompetent staff. • Lack of proper leaderships within WSAs • WCDM not prioritised or given necessary attention, i.t.o. Resourcing. • High staff turnover.

  24. B: Key Challenges Inefficiency of procurement processes within WSAs Protests resulting into VANDALISM (e.g BLUE CRANE ROUTE MUNICIPALITY) • ACIP

  25. C: Feedback on letter sent on 9 September 2013 • Provincial Planning Committees • EC Planning Committee in place (to be expanded to include ACIP, MWIG &NTP); meets quarterly • Revised ToR distributed to ECPC members on 31 July 2013 – adoption to be finalized • Chairperson of ECPC is the DWA RPM:RBIG • ECPC in place since 22 July 2011 • Budget re-allocation & acceleration plans for RBIG & ACIP • AP 2.1: Revised again in October 2013 for adjustments • AP 2.2: Funds to be moved from slow-moving projects to fast-moving projects, whilst attending to slow projects’ barriers. Acceleration/ recovery plans were developed and submitted early October 2013. Regular update to be submitted as and when required.

  26. C: Feedback on letter sent on 9 September 2013 (2) • Preparing for Audits • AP 3.1 – AP 3.3: Busy sorting out project files for Audit Readiness, however the absence of administrative support is posing a limitation towards the expected outcomes, within the stipulated timeframes. Target date: 15/12. • Transferring of assets & assessment of completed projects • AP 4.1: It is the understanding of the RO that Asset Mngt (NO) is already dealing with this issue. • AP 4.2: Mthatha BW Intervention, Coffee Bay, Tsomo RDP South, Mbhashe BWS & Tsomo RDP2 North- capacity limitations affect this task. Assistance needed.

  27. C: Feedback on letter sent on 9 September 2013 (3) • Financial commitment for each project • AP 5.1-5.3: Process followed whenever there is a project recommended for implementation or when there is a change in approved scope of work. • It is the understanding that a submission should be made to Capex when budget is exceeded by more than 15%. NO need to formalize this in writing • Currently working with SCM & Finance to differentiate between a project value and a financial commitment.

  28. C: Feedback on letter sent on 9 September 2013 (4) • Performance evaluation of RBIG projects • AP 6.1: Training of M&E staff on performance evaluation still outstanding. Performance evaluation currently done by project management office • AP 6.2: All performance evaluation reports have been submitted, except ORT: KSD Water and Sanitation (to be submitted on 31/10) • Provincial bulk master planning • AP 7.1: Person nominated to manage the PBMP: Mr M. Vonco and Mrs A. Gidana • ACIP guidelines • Indicate whether ACIP document was circulated to any external stakeholders; also whether any comments were provided on the document

  29. D: Projects to “Fast Track” RBIG • Greater Mbizana RBWS • Ndlambe BWS • KSD PI • James Kleynhans BWS

  30. D: Projects to “Fast Track” ACIP The only WCDM not doing well is CHRIS HANI DM. They had a dispute with the DWA on the fact that their allocation was reduced from R4M to R2M. A reply had been sent to the DM in July 2013 after which it took long for the DM to reply. A Business Plan to do awareness and assessment of Waterdown pipeline was only received on October. The DM is of the opinion that they will be able to spend the funding before the end of the financial year! COMMUNICATION ON HIGH LEVEL NEEDED!!!!!

  31. E: Projects to be Launched RBIG • Coffee Bay Water Supply Scheme IKWEZI - ACIP • The DWA initially sent a letter to Ikwezi DM indicating that R1M is available for WCDM, however the DM was in dire need for water resources to be developed. The funding was thus used for the drilling of boreholes and to equip them. • However it was mentioned last week that R1M is still available for WCDM • Due to short time meters will be bought since very little metering has been done in Ikwezi which is a huge problem!

  32. MUN REGION HEAD OFFICE TREASURY WE NEED FUNDING EISH!!

  33. TREASURY HEAD OFFICE REGION ADEQUATELY STAFFED ADEQUATELY CAPACITATED, WELL FUNCTIONING MUNICIPALITY WE WANT TOP UP FUNDING ONTO REVENUE

  34. IMESA: Key Challenges

  35. F: Way forward A new way of funding projects should be considered since all municipalities are crying for funding but do not have sufficient technical staff to properly implement projects. It is a problem every year, especially where there are no consultants to assist them! Pressure then gets put on understaffed regional personnel to ensure performance and spending! DWA HQ and the Region should have meetings on high level to ensure that the municipality has the ability to implement projects worth millions of rands!!!!! Otherwise DWA must do the implementation for them!!

  36. F: Way forward EXTERNAL ASSISTANCE, PSP’s, RRU, WATER BOARDS, OLD BULL SYSTEM??? LET US STOP THROWING MONEY AT OUR PROBLEMS AND FIRTST SOLVE THE PROBLEM LET US FIRST GET THE CAPACITY RIGHT AT THE MUNICIPALITIES PEOPLE WANT SERVICES NOT PROJECTS!
