dc.description.abstract |
This paper offers a diagnostic of the
water and wastewater sector for the Republic of Belarus,
addressing the sector's institutional, organizational,
technical, and economic aspects, with a specific focus on
urban areas. Significant national investment programs have
enabled Belarus to significantly improve the quality of
water and wastewater services, but major challenges remain.
Water utilities show an overall acceptable performance that
could be improved upon, especially in small towns. The
sector's legal and institutional framework is
well-defined and functional, but an insufficient operational
regulation undermines the efficiency of services. The water
and wastewater sector in Belarus urgently requires
modernization. This review recommends that utilities be
regionalized to generate economies of scale; the capacities,
means, and resources be pooled; and access to funds be
facilitated. Utility regulation needs to be reinforced by
the introduction of benchmarking or yardstick competition,
and by the set-up of performance-based contracts with their
asset-owners. Key recommendations to improve the efficiency
of utility operations include the development of a
performance-oriented management culture and the involvement
of the private sector.
