Montevideo Sanitation Program (PSU IV) Supplementary Financing

The objective of the financing is to provide the Municipal Government of Montevideo (IMM) with resources in addition to those provided for the Urban Sanitation Program for the City of Montevideo (PSU-IV), loan 1819/OC-UR, to ensure that the objectives set for this program are met. Thus, the general objectives of PSU IV remain unchanged with this supplementary financing, i.e.: (i) to reduce pollution in Montevideo Bay and adjacent beaches; and (ii) to expand the coverage of sanitary sewer and storm drainage systems, increase the amount of sewage that is adequately treated and disposed of, and improve management of sanitation and storm drainage services.
