ARLINGTON, Va. – This week, during the 15th AGOA Forum, U.S. Trade and
Development Agency Director Leocadia I. Zak announced support for the Cameroon
Water Utilities Corporation’s efforts to rehabilitate and expand its existing
water supply infrastructure. The grant will help the state-owned water utility
implement treatment and distribution facilities in 11 municipalities across the
country.
“Camwater has already taken a number of significant steps to improve their
infrastructure and expand water access,” said Director Zak. “We’re proud to help
them build on these important efforts by connecting them with a leading U.S.
firm.”
Camwater has selected Environmental Chemical Corporation (Burlingame, Calif.) to
conduct the feasibility study. Together, they will evaluate existing water
services and infrastructure, assess water supply augmentation and service area
water needs, and develop financing arrangements.
The grant agreement was signed in Yaoundé, Cameroon last month.
