The Lake Victoria Basin Commission (LVBC) launched a four-year regional project to improve water supply and solid waste management. The Sh960 billion project dubbed Lake Victoria Water and Sanitation (LVWASAN) Initiative will be implemented in five East African Community member states namely-Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Rwanda and Burundi.
It will involve the development of infrastructure and creation of alternative solutions to problems that arise from lack of proper water and solid waste management systems in towns. This is connected to rapid growth of population in secondary towns which result to unplanned expansion, run-down and non-existent basic infrastructure and services.
The project is being funded by the African Development Bank. The bank however had delayed the project which was to start last year arguing that the project should uniformly in all the five involved countries.
Among the towns to benefit from the project in Kenya are;Keroka,Kericho and Isebania.The project will develop basic infrastructure in line with the Millennium Development Goals.
