14 July 2010 (<a title="IRIN" href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://www.irinnews.org/Report.aspx?ReportId=89829" class="external" target="_blank">IRIN</a>) – The city of Fallujah, about 60km west of Baghdad, still has no functioning sewage system: Waste pours onto the streets and seeps into drinking water supplies. </p> <p>The city’s infrastructure was in ruins after two fierce battles between US forces and Sunni militants in 2004. In a bid to garner local support for the 2003 US-led invasion of Iraq, US officials pledged to build a sewage treatment plant at a cost of US$35 million. </p> <p>Work began in July 2004 and was supposed to be completed in 18 months, but continuing violence, design changes and the replacement of incompetent contractors delayed the project and costs ballooned to over $100 million. </p> <p>Six years on and with US forces preparing to withdraw from Iraq next month, not a single house is connected to the system. The US army has decided to hand over the partially finished project to a local contractor with the promise of providing the necessary funding to complete it. </p> <p>"The project is in its final stages and is expected to be handed over by the end of this year," Sheikh Hameed al-Alwan, head of Fallujah local council, told IRIN. "But unfortunately the plant will work only partially as its backbone, which is the main pipeline that sends all the waste to the main processing unit, will not be constructed because of the lack of funds." </p> <p>Without this vital pipeline, the plant will serve only a fraction of the city’s 580,000 residents, al-Alwan said, adding that the worst affected would be those in suburban areas. “Our only hope is that the Americans can secure the money to complete it, especially after the Iraqi government has said it does not have enough to allocate to it.” </p> <h3>Foul smells </h3> <p>Foul-smelling sewage has run through the rutted and pockmarked streets of Fallujah for more than three years. Residents currently depend on underground septic tanks which are in many cases leaking waste onto the streets from where it eventually ends up in the River Euphrates, a main drinking water source for Fallujah and other downstream cities. </p> <p>Abdul-Sattar Kadhum al-Nawaf, director of Fallujah general hospital, said the sewage problem had taken its toll on residents’ health. They were increasingly affected by diarrhoea, tuberculosis, typhoid and other communicable diseases. </p> <p>Al-Nawaf said that although he did not have specific numbers, 10-15 percent of patients at his hospital had water or sewage-related diseases. </p> <p>Experts say the Fallujah plant is just one of many abandoned, incomplete or hastily finished projects around the country. </p> <p>Anbar-based analyst Khudhair Jassim Ali, who lectures at the university, said that a lack of funds, corruption and a lack of cooperation between the government and companies working on projects have delayed badly needed infrastructure projects. </p> <p>"The government should follow up with these projects to take over from those parties that will leave Iraq, whether US forces or NGOs. It should fill the gap.”</p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://www.irinnews.org/Report.aspx?ReportId=89829" class="external" target="_blank">IRIN Middle East | IRAQ: Seeping sewage hits Fallujah residents’ health | Middle East | Iraq | Health & Nutrition Water & Sanitation | News Item</a></p> </div> </div> <hr/> <div class="post clearfix" id="post-11237"> <div class="postmetadata"><span class="comments"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/2010/07/04/baghdads-trash-piles-up/#respond" title="Comment on Baghdad’s Trash Piles Up">No Comments</a></span> Posted on July 4th, 2010 by Um Thalit</div> <h3><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/2010/07/04/baghdads-trash-piles-up/" rel="bookmark" title="Permanent Link to Baghdad’s Trash Piles Up">Baghdad’s Trash Piles Up</a></h3> <p class="postmetadata">Category: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/category/english-articles/" title="View all posts in English Language Articles" rel="category tag">English Language Articles</a>, Tags: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/abdul-sahib/" rel="tag">Abdul Sahib</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/alleyways/" rel="tag">alleyways</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/american-walls/" rel="tag">American walls</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/blast-walls/" rel="tag">blast walls</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/cholera/" rel="tag">Cholera</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/civic-improvement/" rel="tag">civic improvement</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/cleanliness/" rel="tag">cleanliness</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/construction-debris/" rel="tag">construction debris</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/degradable-plastics/" rel="tag">degradable plastics</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/diarrhoea/" rel="tag">diarrhoea</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/dumps/" rel="tag">Dumps</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/east-baghdad/" rel="tag">east Baghdad</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/environment/" rel="tag">environment</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/food/" rel="tag">food</a>, <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20130126172913/http://gorillasguides.com/tag/food-contamination/" rel="tag">Food -

Yet even those involved in the civic improvement plans admit the government faces a formidable problem made worse by years of neglect.</p> <p>“Baghdad is not like other places, and the issues are complex. The municipality is not doing its job properly, but at the same time we lack laws that prohibit the public from littering and polluting. This is why we are unable to provide a healthy environment,” said Qasim Dawood, a member of parliament’s health and environment committee.</p> <p>Dawood said the trash piling up in Baghdad’s alleyways, open spaces and bazaars ranges from common household refuse to construction debris, non-degradable plastics and rotting organic waste.</p> <p>As the capital has swelled to nearly seven million residents, an influx of poor migrants and a housing shortage have forced an increasing number of Iraqis to live in slums and squatter settlements in abandoned building and parks. The distance between these ad hoc living spaces and garbage dumps is shrinking, said Dawood.</p> <p>The problem of what the government refers to as “solid waste management” also affects more affluent residential neighbourhoods and commercial districts. In some areas, trash heaps have blocked off entire roads and residents throughout the city complain of foul odours, insects and rodents. Local media has reported a rise in packs of scavenging dogs, putting the number in Baghdad at over one million.</p> <p>“Unchecked garbage is destroying the quality of life in Baghdad. Dumps are everywhere and sometimes near water pipes and rivers. This creates all kinds of bad fungi that lead to food poisoning and diarrhoea, and can bring on diseases such as typhoid and cholera,” said Dawood.</p> <p>Waste management has been a serious problem in Baghdad since the United States-led invasion in 2003. In the subsequent years of sectarian violence, government agencies were abandoned and looted, and garbage collectors were routinely kidnapped or killed. Blast walls, barbed wire and barricaded checkpoints have choked off access to many parts of the city, making regular clean-up sweeps impossible.</p> <p>“Our neighbourhood is a big dump. During the day, the awful smell is really hard to stand. The smell gets worse with the heat in summer. At night it is very annoying to hear the dogs and their howling. We have gone to the municipality more than once to ask them to clean the area, but it’s been no good,” said Ibtesam Aziz, 36, resident of the poor Shaab neighbourhood of east Baghdad.</p> <p>The US has invested some 33 million dollars to improve Baghdad’s waste management system, an American official told IWPR. This includes the construction of landfills and the donation of removal equipment. Still, US and municipal officials admit that garbage removal has been a low priority for a city with a host of other problems such as limited clean water and electricity and extremist violence.</p> <p>In some areas, residents pay for their garbage to be picked up in the streets, but many complain that the service is not dependable. Impoverished areas have no service and some districts in the capital have taken on clean-up efforts themselves.</p> <p>"We have a huge area, too much garbage, and too few vehicle and workers. We hired a number of trucks from private sector. All together now we have 100, which is one-third of the total number we need," said Azhar Abdul Sahib, the head of media department in Mansour suburb of Baghdad.</p> <p>Sahib continued that the vehicles employed were often small trucks or even hand-drawn carts, and temporary labour costs are unsustainable at 10,000 to 15,000 dinar (8.5 to 12 dollars) for each worker per day.</p> <p>Parliament in 2009 passed a law requiring citizens to put garbage in plastic bags to prevent disease. The Baghdad city government distributed the bags to most houses and shops in the city, but the move proved ineffective.</p> <p>In 2007, a programme to place large yellow containers on each block for residential waste was also ignored, with most of the containers being stolen, according to residents.</p> <p>"Having garbage everywhere in the city is just uncivilised. It affects people’s health as well as the environment. We need to educate people about how cleanliness is good for our health, but no group or agency is doing this, even local NGOs because we lack money and support," said Salama Dhaeia Naeif, the head of Love and Peace Messengers organisation in Baghdad.</p> <p>As the garbage problem continues to grow, residents and officials are increasingly pointing fingers at each other.</p> <p>“The Baghdad municipality makes great efforts to clean the city, but these efforts are mostly wasted by the citizens who throw trash everywhere, anytime. For example, a man puts trash outside his house in an open box four or five times each day. So when a cat or dog passes by, the garbage is scattered everywhere. Now, take into account the millions of citizens in Baghdad and you can imagine what the city is like,” said Sabah Sami, head Baghdad municipality’s media department.</p> <p>Sami claims Baghdad’s 14 waste collection branches and 314 vehicles should be enough to collect the city’s trash, but that “citizens throw trash everywhere".</p> <p>New York, a city of some eight million people, has 5,700 waste removal vehicles, according to the New York Sanitation department website.</p> <p>Despite the public frustration, city officials are confident that the garbage problem can be solved.</p> <p>Municipality spokesman Hakeem Abdul Zahra said the city plans to work with Baghdad’s Operation Command, a body in charge of securing the capital, to clear up refuse piling up around blast walls. The municipality also intends to sign contract with companies from Turkey and the United Arab Emirates to remove and compress garbage in east Baghdad. The firms will also provide dumps for locals, as well as clean the streets and water plants.</p> <p>Zahra said additional deals will be settled by the end of the year with Austrian and Turkish firms that will be in charge of garbage processing. He said the new projects would enable Baghdad to remove 500 tonnes of garbage each day.</p> <p>The city of New York removes roughly 25,000 tonnes of garbage from homes and businesses per day.</p> <p>Zahra refused to disclose the names of any foreign firms or the financial arrangements because the deals were still in negotiation.</p> <p>Sami said the municipality is launching a media campaign to educate citizens on the health risks of garbage and how they should dispose of it.</p> <p>City officials hope the initiative will raise awareness and possibly prompt anti-litter laws and ordinances.</p> <p>Although officials have spoken at great length about their determination to clean up the city, exact financial figures for the massive undertaking remain elusive. Sami said figures for the projects could not be given because waste management was included in a larger city improvement budget that included other programmes.</p> <p>“I can’t even give an estimate on the total cost for garbage collection in Baghdad, but I can say it is the lowest compared to neighbouring countries,” said Zahra.</p> <p>“We really don’t spend lot of money on garbage compared to other countries, even though we are doing a great job in this field. But I don’t have an exact figure.”</p> <p>Residents concerned about the growing rubbish problem say it is a comparatively recent one, and hope the appearance of the city can be restored.</p> <p>"My wish is to see Baghdad clean again as in the 1980s and even 1990s. Garbage collectors and street cleaners worked day and night. They knocked on our door to collect it and there big dumps in every neighbourhood where people could put garbage in instead of throwing it in street like now," said Ahmed Ismaeil, 37, a medical technician at a hospital in Baghdad.</p> <p>“It was one of the most beautiful cities in the world.”</p> <p><strong>Zaineb Naji and Dawood Salman are IWPR-trained journalists in Baghdad.

align="right"> <p>كربلاء ..  افاد مصدر في وزارة الصحة في كربلاء تلوث مياة الشرب وكثرة الأمراض الخطيرة مثل الكوليرا والإسهال والالتهاب الكبدي  الوبائي</p> <p>والبلهارسيا.وبسبب هذا التجاء المواطن الضعيف الدخل إلى شراء المياه المعدنية وهي أيضا غير صالحة للشرب في كثير من الأحيان ونلاحظ المناطق السكنية التي في مركز المدينة التجئو إلى سد حاجتهم من المياه المعدنية من العتبات المقدسة.وبسبب توسع هذه الظاهرة وانتشارها عن تصفية المياه ومراقبتها:مشاريع إنتاج المياه في محافظة كربلاء تماثل كافة محافظات العراق الأخرى باعتباره بلد فيه انهار عذبة كدجلة والفرات فنعمل بنظام التصفية أي ترسيب الأطيان والعوالق ومن ثم التعقيم بإضافة غاز الكلور وقتل البكتريا وبعد ذلك هناك فحوصات(فيزيائية وكيميائية وبكتيرية) على الماء المنتج ويكون تحت الرقابة .وأضاف المشاريع المركزية لتصفية المياه مسيطر عليها ليس بنسبة(100%) ولكن ضمن النسبة المسموح بها وهي ( 5%) فمادون ولكن تظهر هناك حالات فشل في بعض مناطق معينة قد يكون سببها الشبكات القديمة أو الربط الغير نظامي على الشبكات والغالبية العظمى نصبت مضخات على الشبكة مباشرة وهذا مخالف للشرع والتعليمات القانونية ويؤذي الشبكة لأنه قد تنساب مياه آسنة أو أطيان إلى داخل الشبكة التي فيها ثقب أو كسر، أما المجمعات المائية في القرى والأرياف فنسبة الفشل تكون نتيجة لجهل المشغلين بحكم مستواهم الأكاديمي وطبيعة وضعهم الفني في الريف أو بسبب مياه الأنهار الموجودة قد يكون جريانها قليل.واضاف "إن الطعم في المياه المعذبة أحلى من مياه الإسالة لان مشاريعنا لا تعالج العسرة والأملاح لأنها مكلفة جدا.</p> </p></div> </div> </div> <hr/> <div class="navigation"> <div class="alignleft"></div> <div class="alignright"></div> </div> </div> <div id="sidebar" class="span-10 last"> <div class="span-10"
