The study addresses the absence of sewerage i n developed and developing areas, problems i n operation and maintenance of the existing system, pollution o f major surface waters, and poor public health conditions i n many sections of the city. Using the most recent planning techniques and the principles of environmental engineering, a program i s proposed for the period exten- ding from the present to the year 2000. The original scope of work inclu- ded the following major elements: - a detailed assessment of existing facilities and conditions in the urban Alexandria study area. - determination of factors which affect the design of existing system improvements and the development o f new facilities. - determination of necessary oceanographic studies and conduct o f other field studies. - selection of a preferred plan after evaluation of each of the feasible alternative plans and interim plans, taking into account economic and functional constraints. - selection of Top Priority Projects for immediate construction and selection of a feasible f i r s t stage construction program. - preparation of conceptual designs and cost estimates for the recommended works. - developemnt of a sound program for the implementation of the proposed plan. The program was to be a compromise which would satisfy the requirements for improved wastewater disposal and, at the same time, avoid unacceptable economic, financial, socia1,and environmental impact. A major objective was the determination of an early construction program, which would provide maximum benefit to the study area and s t i l l be consistent with the long range planning goals.
