The programme will entail the review of six catchment management strategies; preparation of 200 sub-catchment development plans; construction of 50 sand dams and/sub-surface dams along seasonal rivers especially in ASALs; up-grading of 100 gauging stations to telemetric stations complete with data-loggers; rehabilitation or establishment of 100 water quality monitoring stations; and development of a national water allocation plan. The water policy will be made more accountable and the current eight regional water service boards will be combined into a single national water services authority with devolved units at county level.
