VACANCIES ANNOUNCEMENT
President’s
Office, Public Service Recruitment Secretariat on behalf of the Dar es Salaam
Water and Sewerage Authority (DAWASA) and Medical Stores Department
(MSD)invites qualified Tanzanians to fill (3) vacant posts as mentioned below;
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 DAR ES SALAAM WATER AND SEWERAGE AUTHORITY
(DAWASA)
In 1981 the
Government of Tanzania established the National Urban Water Authority and
charged it with the responsibility to develop and manage urban water supply on
the mainland of Tanzania. NUWA which became operational in 1984 set a target to
take over and reform water supply services in all urban areas in Dar es Salaam.
The Government reorganised
NUWA in 1997 to form the Dar es Salaam Water and Sewerage Authority by merging
the functions of NUWA and the sewerage functions of the Sewerage and Sanitation
Department of the City Commission. Under the DAWASA Act DAWASA was made
responsible for developing operating and maintaining all water supply and
sewerage services in Dar es Salaam and its satellite towns of Bagamoyo
andKibaha..
The DAWASA area of
operations incorporates the Cities of Dar Es Salaam, Kibaha, Bagamoyo and the
corridors of its two transmission lines. The Dar es Salaam Water Supply and
Sewerage Authority is responsible for providing water supply services to its
customers (about 100 000) in its area of operations. DAWASA also provides
sewerage services to a small number of customers (around 20, 000) in the City
of Dar Es Salaam. By the late 1990s it was evident that DAWASA was unable to
respond quickly enough to
meet customer demands for
improved levels of service and improve finances to adequately maintain and
replace its aging assets.
In August 1997
AfDB identified a Dar es Salaam Water Supply and Sanitation Project that would
focus on rehabilitating and improving operations and facilities with DAWASA as
the service provider and Operator. AfDB put project processing on hold pending
the outcome of consultations in 1997 / 98 between Operators and the GoT for a
long term “Concession”. Under the proposed arrangements the concessionaire was
to be responsible for financing the investment program estimated to cost of
about US%24250 million as well as operation and maintenance activities.
In November
1998 it became clear that this approach was not going to succeed. Private
investors were unwilling to finance such a venture in Dar es Salaam given the
state of the WSS operations and infrastructure. Consequently GoT requested
World Bank assistance to design an option that would combine private operation
and public financing. In March 2003 DAWASA completed the preparation of the Dar
es Salaam Water Supply & Sanitation Project (DWSSP) in keeping with the
suggested scope defined by the World Bank. The World Bank African Development
Bank and the European Investment Bank appraised the project and commenced
negotiations for financing.
DAWASA and CWS
met all conditions precedent for external financing and the project and lease
contracts became effective 1 August 2003. The Lease Contract with City Water
Services was terminated on 31st May 2005 after attempts to renegotiate the
contract failed. Upon termination of the CWS Lease Contract DAWASA appointed
the Dar es Salaam Water and Sewerage Corporation (DAWASCO) as the new Operator
for the DAWASA Service Area. DAWASCO was established in May 2005 under the
Public Corporations Act 1992. Following negotiations DAWASA and DAWASCO signed
a new ten year Lease Contract effective 1 July 2005.
