Public consultation – Water Services Improvement Program in Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina

The Draft Action Programme for improvement of water supply services in the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina and utilisation of the announced financial and technical support was developed by the Working group established in 2018 and composed of the representatives of Ministry of Agriculture, Water Management and Forestry of the Federation of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Association of Municipalities and Towns of FBiH, the Association of the Employers of Utility Companies in FBiH, The Agency for the Sava River Basin, the Adriatic Sea Water Agency and the Ministry of Environment and Tourism of the FBiH.

The Draft Programme contains the following: 

• Brief description of activities to be implemented.
• Precise assignment of responsibilities (by position in an institution, i.e. individual person and not the whole institution). The lead responsible person will define the sub-activities and the implementation team.
• Deadline for the implementation of activities (ultimate deadline and deadlines for achieving the specific objectives).
• Brief risk assessment of the implementation of activities, including the measures to minimise the risks.
• Definition of the expected results, as well as indicators and intermediate results enabling progress monitoring.
• Backup plan (alternative transfer of responsibilities, if not fulfilled) with the consequences for the responsible person not fulfilling the assigned responsibilities.
• Brief overview of financial funds required for the implementation of activities.
• Explanation of the proposed activities.

In order to develop a well-substantiated and informed Programme, we are calling all interested parties to send their comments and suggestions to sektorvoda [at] fmpvs.gov.ba no later than 30 June 2021. All relevant comments and suggestions are welcome, and will be considered and reflected in the Programme.
