AiD carried out a baseline survey with key focus on Water, Sewerage, Drainage and Solid Waste Management systems in Mardan. In that project, AiD successfully completed following activities:

• Identification of GIS-based location of, diameter, type of material and, where known, age of water mains, all valves – air valves and washouts (with assigning a reference number to each and cross referencing to the table/database with all relevant information), reservoirs, tube wells, filtration plants. Assessed physical condition of existing tools/ machinery/ equipment for effective operation and maintenance of tube well based water supply system.
• Identification of GIS-based location of all drains (completed and under construction), visible manholes, major junctions (sewerage and drains) articulating all relevant information. Determined existing utility lines (Water supply, PTCL, Gas, etc.) passing through drainage system and presented on GIS maps.
• Identification of GIS-based location of all existing solid waste transfer stations and waste containers. Determined and documented number and capacity of secondary waste collection points on GIS maps. Reviewed and assessed physical condition of existing waste machinery, equipment and vehicles.
