I. INTRODUCTION

1. This annual work program presents the program of priorities and activities for the WaterFinancing Partnership Facility (WFPF or "Facility"), as administered by the Asian DevelopmentBank (ADB) on behalf of its financing partners contributing to the Facility, covering the periodJanuary to December 2015. Activities are to be financed from the contributions to the Facility’s

three trust funds: (i) the Multi-Donor Trust Fund, with contributions from the governments of Australia, Austria, Norway, Spain, and Switzerland; (ii) the Netherlands Trust Fund; and (iii) theSanitation Financing Partnership Trust Fund1.

2. The operation of the Facility in 2015 and beyond will continue to be guided by the WaterOperational Plan 2011-2020, and by the revised Design and Monitoring Framework (DMF) forthe Facility as approved by financing partners in March 2014.

II. 2015 PROJECTED DEMAND FOR RESOURCES

Direct Project Support Window

3.  About 70% of the Facility’s resources is intended for direct project support to allowWFPF to facilitate and influence the development of investment projects. There are two waysby which direct project support is provided:

  Support to investment projects  through grant component of investments andtechnical assistance (TA) attached to loans.

  Support to project preparation through cofinancing of project preparation technicalassistance (PPTAs) or financing of other project development activities through thedirect charge modality.

4. The Water Financing Program is well on track towards meeting the investment targets

for Phase 2 (2011-2020) at $2.0-$2.5 billion annually or a total of $20-$25 billion by 2020,building on the achievement under Phase 1 (2006-2010). Table 1 presents the summary ofapproved lending to date covering Phases 1 and 2.

5. The programmed water lending for 2015 currently stands at $3.9 billion. Tables 2 and 3below summarize the breakdown by sector and by region and details are presented in Appendix1. Assuming a 65% approval ratio2, around $2.5 billion total approved lending for 2015 can beexpected, thus allowing the Water Financing Program to remain on target.

6. This $3.9 billion programmed lending provides an indication of possible requirement for

additional resources from WFPF to support loan projects through grant component ofinvestments or TA attached to loans.

Program Quality Support Window

9. About 30% of the Facility’s resources are intended for program quality support. WFPFwill continue to support reforms and capacity development through policy advisory TA (PATA),capacity development TA (CDTA), and research and development TA (RDTA). Tables 6 and 7below summarize the 2015 programmed PATAs and CDTAs by sector and by region anddetailed in Appendix 3. At the time that this Annual Work Program was being prepared,information on programmed RDTAs was not yet available.

10. The programmed PATAs and CDTAs shown in Tables 6 and 7 above provide anindication of likely demand for additional resources from the Facility to push implementation ofreform measures and capacity development interventions as well as further development andsharing of sector knowledge. In terms of subsector focus, Table 6 above shows waterresources management getting the highest share of TA funding. This is not surprisingconsidering the increasing focus on water security.

Demand for Funding from User Departments

11. The user departments provided the Facility Secretariat with their expected demand forWFPF resources in 2015 which sums up to $9.79 million as summarized in Table 8 below anddetailed in Appendix 4. To manage user departments expectations, they have been keptinformed by the Secretariat about the limited resources available for allocation. Their expected

demand was therefore prepared with full knowledge that the capacity of the Facility to financetheir applications would be limited.

Total 9,790,700

14. At the time of preparation of this Annual Work Program, a total of $443,200 was alreadyapproved for allocation to four projects, representing the first set of approvals for 2015. Theseapproved allocations are to be financed from the Netherlands Trust Fund ($350,000) and the

Sanitation Financing Partnership Trust Fund ($93,200).

15. In addition, several other proposals amounting to a little less than a million are underdiscussion between user departments and the Secretariat.

16. The actual allocation in 2014 was 64% of the expected demand. The allocation in 2015is expected to be around the same level.

18. The $4.173 million available under the Netherlands Trust Fund are earmarked forspecific countries3, while the $6.269 million under the Sanitation Financing Partnership TrustFund are only intended for non-sewered sanitation and septage management. For all otherproposals not eligible under those two trust funds, the $1.762 million balance under themultidonor trust fund may be used.

19. Based on the available balance to date, the expected demand for resources can besupported and if the total demand will translate into approved allocations, the resources willalmost be fully allocated by the end of 2015, particularly in the case of the Multidonor TrustFund and the Netherlands Trust Fund as shown in Table 10 below.

IV. PROJECT SELECTION AND PRIORITIZATION

20. The ceiling for each of the modalities as set by the Water Committee shall remain asfollows:

  Country-specific technical assistance $300,0004   PPTA $500,000  Regional TA $1,000,000  Grant Component of Investment $1,000,0005   Direct charges $225,000

21. The allocation ratio of about 70% for project support and about 30% for program qualitywill continue to guide the allocation of resources in 2015 although it has been made clear touser departments as decided by the Water Committee that direct project support will be givenpriority. Approved allocations to date show direct project support getting a share of 71% andprogram quality with a share of 29%.

22. Selection and prioritization of projects will continue to be guided by the revised DMF forthe Facility, the specific priorities of financing partners, and the specific priority thrusts set out inthe Water Operational Plan as follows:

  water use efficiencies across the range of users;  expanded wastewater management and reuse, including sanitation;  embedded IWRM, including improved risk management to mitigate floods, droughts,

and other water-related disasters;  expanded knowledge and capacity development that uses technology and innovation

more directly; and  enhanced partnerships with the private sector.

V. 2015 ACTIVITIES

23. Midterm Review of ADB’s Water Operational Plan 2011-2020. Approved in October2011, the Water Operational Plan 2011-2020 is now into its fourth year of implementation anda mid-term review is planned around June 2015. The review will focus on assessing theprogress of the Plan implementation and the progress towards the target outputs andoutcomes. The mechanics for undertaking this review is to be drawn up soon.

24. External Evaluation of WFPF. An external evaluation of WFPF, along with CleanEnergy Financing Partnership Facility and Urban Financing Partnership Facility was agreedwith financing partners during the 2014 annual consultation meeting. The evaluation is beingcarried out by external consultants engaged for each facility and financed from existingcontributions with  ADB’s Independent Evaluation Department providing oversight support byway of review of approach and methodology and draft reports. The evaluation is expected to

be completed in May 2015.

25. ADB-Financing Partners 8th  Annual Consultation Meeting. The 8th AnnualConsultation Meeting between ADB and financing partners is scheduled at the ADBHeadquarters on 2-3 March 2015. As in previous consultation meetings, the Facility’sprogress and achievements to date and strategic direction for 2015 and beyond will be the

main focus of the discussion. In addition, there will be a session on the progress of theexternal review of the three financing partnership facilities referred to in para 24 above.

26. 7th  World Water Forum.  Scheduled on 12-17 April 2015 in Daegu and Gyeongbuk,Korea, this triennial water event will focus on the implementation of the solutions that wereidentified during the 6th World Water Forum in Marseilles in 2012 in line with its three primaryobjectives as follows: (i) moving from solutions to implementation, (ii) bridging the platform ofscience and technology to water issues, and (iii) contributing to the sustainable developmentgoals (SDGs). ADB is acting as design group coordinator for the thematic session onEconomics and Financing for Innovative Investments and will also be contributing to severalother thematic sessions including Integrated Sanitation for All, Water for Food, Water and Cities,and Green Growth. In addition, ADB is also playing an active role in the regional process which

will include presentation of initial reports on: (i) Asian Water Development Outlook 3rd edition,(ii) country water information systems in Bhutan and Mongolia, and (iii) integrated modeling forwater-food-energy nexus.

27. Asian Irrigation Forum 2015. The first Asian Irrigation Forum was convened by ADB in April 2012 which prompted the International Commission on Irrigation and Drainage (ICID) toconvene the very first World Irrigation Forum one year after. It has now been agreed between

 ADB and ICID that both Forums will be held every three years with World Irrigation Forum beingconvened one year after the Asian Irrigation Forum. The Asian Irrigation Forum 2015 is nowplanned for the week of 16-20 November 2015 at the ADB Headquarters.

28. Preparation of Asian Water Development Outlook 3rd Edition. The Asian Water

Development Outlook 2nd

  edition released in 2013 provided the first quantitative andcomprehensive view of water security in the countries of Asia and the Pacific. The thirdedition which is planned for release in 2016 will be an update of the second edition, throughthe refined indicators for the following key dimensions of water security: (i) urban water security- to develop vibrant, livable cities and towns, (ii) environmental water security  –  to restorehealthy rivers and ecosystems, and (iii) economic water security  –  to support productiveeconomies in agriculture, industry and energy. An inception workshop is scheduled on 25-27February 2015 at ADB Headquarters. A progress report is to be presented at the 7th WorldWater Forum in April 2015.

29. Asia-Pacific Water 2050 Study. This was formerly referred to in the WaterOperational Plan 2011-2020 as Future of Water in Asia Study. It is intended as a forward-

looking study of the critical water issues in the Asia-Pacific Region. In 2013, this was agreedto be changed to Asia-Pacific Water 2050 Study. As an initial step, ADB is partnering with theInternational Institute for Applied Systems Analysis (IIASA) to undertake an integratedmodeling of water-food-energy nexus issues in the region and to use the model outputs asbasis for consultations with key stakeholders to refine sector scenarios. The demonstration ofintegrated modeling approach and the initial round of stakeholder consultations will enablemore detailed analysis of selected scenarios as inputs to the Asia-Pacific Water 2050publication. An initial report is to be presented at the 7th World Water Forum.

30. Establishment of Asian Water Information System. This was conceived in the WaterOperational Plan 2011-2020 as a first step in putting in place an accessible body of knowledgefor the water sector in Asia-Pacific region, building on the concept of “open-data” and emerging

standards for data exchange. During a consultation workshop held in November 2013 withdevelopment partners involved in similar undertaking, one of the agreements reached was tostart with the development of country water information system for one or two pilot countries.Bhutan and Mongolia agreed and work began in 2014. A progress report on what has beenachieved in these two pilot countries will also be presented at the 7th World Water Forum.

31. Preparation of country water assessments. The new breed of country waterassessments (CWAs) which is aimed at providing the foundation for better understanding ofwater issues at country level is at various stages of development in several countries guided bythe template and guidance note prepared in 2012. The status per country is summarized inTable 10 below.

the respective governments in 2014. Those for Kyrgyz

Republic and Tajikistan have already been agreed and

finalized with the respective governments while that for

 Azerbaijan is expected to be finalized by June 2015

East Asia PRC Work has commenced in June 2014 which includespreparation of thematic papers guided by the five keydimensions of water security as reflected in the AsianWater Development Outlook 2 released in 2013. A

dedicated TA to support its preparation has also beenapproved and expected to commence in April 2015.

Mongolia A dedicated TA to support its preparation has beenapproved. Work will commence also in April 2015

South Asia Bhutan The on-going water resources inventory is intended toserve as a prelude to eventual CWA preparation

Southeast Asia Indonesia A draft was completed in December 2014 andexpected to be finalized by end-February 2015following peer review between late January to earlyFebruary.

Viet Nam A first draft was completed in end-2013 mainly on

water resources (irrigation and flood) assessment. Additional work was carried out in 2014 to cover watersupply. Further work is set to commence in early 2015focusing on water accounting.

32. Discussion is in progress to prepare CWAs for Nepal, Bangladesh, and India. In thecase of Bangladesh, a dedicated TA is included in the 2015 TA program. In Nepal, the initialwork may focus on water resources assessment while in India, considering its size, doing the

assessment at state level might be considered as a more appropriate (and manageable)approach.

33. While there is a CWA template developed which seeks to promote a comprehensiveassessment encompassing all water uses, the actual assessments done to date vary fromcountry to country depending on the priority of the countries. In the case of countries in Centraland West Asia, the assessments have focused mainly on water use for irrigation and floodmanagement. Water for domestic and energy use will be undertaken as needed and will beclosely linked with the sector assessments carried out during the country partnership strategy(CPS) preparation.

34. 2015 Detailed Activities on WFPF Operation. The detailed activities in 2015 withrespect to the operation of the Facility are presented in Table 11 below. The outputs andoutcomes were set based on the targets indicated in the Facility’s DMF.
