CONCLUSIONS AND FURTHER RECOMMENDED ACTIONS BY THE NJC.

Based on the reconnaissance and information & data collected during the visit and meetings with the field staff of NJC by the Subject Socialists of ACE (Pvt) Ltd from 18 to 21-02-2009 and discussed in detail in this report following conclusions and further actions are recommended to be taken by the NJC for detailed planning and design of the requisite external services including water supply, sewerage, storm drainage and electrification for both the C1 and C3 Residential Colonies: -

I) NJC may approve the design criteria i.e. occupancy, water demand, sewage flow, stock storage etc. and concept design proposed in this report for detailed planning and design of the external services

II) Layouts of both the Colonies be finalized keeping in view the observation listed above and particularly for C3 Colony when most of the area is occupied by the Contractor’s Camp. Consideration may also be given to opinion of the Project Director WAPDA, Neelum Jhelum Hydro-Electric Project, according to whom WAPDA may consider retaining the housing facilities constructed by the Contractor even after completion of the Project.

III) NJC should conduct survey and provide data and survey plan of the proposed small dam to be constructed on Nausadda Nullah for generating domestic water supply source. This information will also require route survey and data for planning and design of gravity transmission main for conducting surface water from the storage of the proposed small dam to the elevated ground storage tank (EGST) proposed to be constructed on higher elevation of the hillocks on southern side of the site for C1 Colony.

IV) WAPDA, the Client and NJC may study and accord approval or suggest amendments, as the case may be, for the Design Criteria for calculation the occupancy, average, maximum day and peak demands of water supply and stock storage for water supply as proposed, and the concept planning and design worked out and discussed at Para 5 above in this Report. Similarly, limit of generation of sewage @ 80% of the water supplied and its anaerobic treatment through community septic tanks before final disposal in the nearest natural water bodies as discussed for both Colonies at Para 6.4 and 7.3.3 above be reviewed and approval thereof accorded.
Subsequent visits of the Subject Specialist of ACE (Pvt) Ltd. shall be required for study of sites for detailed planning and design.
