Access to clean water and sanitation services is central to National Water and Sewerage Corporation’s goal of achieving “Water for All”. In the district of Apac alone, over 89 villages have gained access to clean water with a total network of over 150kms of mains extensions with an estimated 60% of water access.

It has five (5) steel tank water reservoirs serving the area. The area is also served by three (3) boreholes in Apac main, two (2) in Ibuje and two (2) in Aduku with an average production of over 19,000 cubics with 2,874 water connections. Despite its success story, Apac is without challenges that continue to loom over the area. Despite continuous advancements made to ensure communities have access to safe drinking water, low groundwater quantity and quality remain matters of great concern.

The area normally gets constrained during the dry season due to high demand and locals struggle to meet their daily water requirements. In response to these challenges, NWSC is undertaking a number of innovative initiatives and projects focused on securing access to improved water sources to support navigate these challenges.

For instance, with the support of different partners, the corporation is implementing the Awila AATWATSAN project which involves the use of a solar powered borehole intended to benefit over 30 villages and estimated to serve about 4800 people. The Awila Project report notes state that the project has made satisfactory progress towards ensuring access to safe drinking water in Apac through water mains interconnection from Awila to Ibuje, with 51 connections so far made.

The Chegere project is 85% complete, with two boreholes drilled and construction of a 100 cubic reservoir completed meant to stabilize water supply in Apac town and the surrounding communities. Water Extensions to Atar area which is 12kms from Apac town is in its final stages of completion pending installation of pump sets.

This project is meant to serve over 10 villages in Atar and the surrounding communities that are still not served by NWSC. In addition, NWSC has developed an important network of standpipes within the town for those who cannot afford piped water to their homes and over 9.6% of the local population in Apac has access to a source of drinking water with over 240 active Public Standpipes. NWSC is simply committed to water for all and intends on realizing that goal.
