All work and service contracts have been completed with the exception of one which is on track to reach closure around the end of 2019 (though the unfortunate event of recent devastating earthquake in Durres area might cause some delay, it is not expected to have any major deviation from this timeline). Disbursement is at 94% with the rest of the funds already committed for payment of retention payments of different contracts.

Bulk Water Supply Works: The works were completed in 4 phases. Upon completion of works, on June 2019, the system build under this contract, WDFK1, was put in operation, including the well pumps, MPS pumps and the transmission pipe of around 68 km which transports water into existing reservoirs in Durres. All analysis on quality conducted and Hygiene permits have been obtained. A quantity of 630 lit/sec is being delivered in city of Durres through the infrastructure built under the Project. 2. Wastewater Network Investments. The works on secondary and tertiary networks in the Beach have been completed. Works to separate storm water and wastewater networks in the Durres City area are also completed. 3. DWU Performance Review January - August 2019. DWU presented a comprehensive review of the commercial performance of the company for the eight months of 2019 and the results are continuing to be positive. Notably, DWU is on track to consolidate its full cost recovery of direct operating costs by the end of 2019 for the second year in a row. More than 1,300 new contracts have been signed and 5,636 new customer meters have been installed (which takes the metered customers to 93.2% compared to 92% from last year). Billing in water supply has increased for 2.5% and in wastewater collection for 3%, compared to same period of last year. Non revenue water has been only decreased for 1.1%, yet it is a progress as there are 630 liters of water/ sec additionally in the system when comparing with last year, and also the hours of service with water supply have been increased.
