Intended beneficiary

Direct beneficiaries: local community of Kioneli/Gonyeli

Indirect beneficiaries: citizens of Kioneli/Gonyeli

Scope of works

The northern part of the Kioneli/Gonyeli local community is still not fully covered by a sewerage network. In order to expand the coverage, a main sewer trunk has to be built to allow sewerage lines to be connected. It is a residential area, and the vast majority of houses/living units are not connected to the sewerage. They are using septage tanks for their wastewater which represents a financial burden for the inhabitants as well as represent an environmental risk for the discharge of the septage.
