The overall objective of the project is to improve the water and sanitation infrastructure in the localities of Galati county included in the project, in order to fulfil the obligations established by the Accession Treaty and the relevant European Directives. The investments included in this project continue the expansion and rehabilitation process of the water and wastewater infrastructure realised in the 2007-2013 phase and are proposed investments in the expansion/establishment of water supply and sewerage systems in rural areas. Through the project, the following indicators will be achieved by 2026: CO18 = 120,170 place of which 10,170 new inhabitants and 110. 000 inhabitants who will benefit from a better water supply; CO19 = 10,170 new p.e. The degree of connection to the water supply systems in the area of the project, in 2020 is 90.7 % — 323,028 place., and in 2024 after the completion of the LIOP1 will be 97.0 % — 332.592 place. From the point of view of the continuous supply of drinking water in the project area, in 2024 after the completion of the LIOP1 will be 64.0 % — 216.382 place. 2S33 — At the end of the project, the degree of connection and compliance will increase to 100 % — 336.552 place. in 2026, respectively 120,170 places. The level of connection of biodegradable organic load in the agglomerations of the project in 2020 is 61.15 % (26,357 p.e.), and following the completion of the LIOP1 (year 2024) will be 75.03 % (31,143 p.e.). 2S31 — The degree of connection of biodegradable organic load to collection systems in agglomerations > 10,000 p.e., will increase from 75.03 % (31,143 p.e.). in 2024 to 100.0 % in 2026 (45.206 p.e.); In 2026 the waste water will be collected and further treated for 10,170 p.e. (10,170 place.).
