EIB finances water and sanitation systems project in BiH
The European Investment Bank has signed a €2.1 million EU grant with Bosnia and Herzegovina to finance the construction of the wastewater and drinking water systems in the municipalities of Jajce and Zvornik.
The EU grant will go towards construction works for water supply investments on the right bank of the river Vrbas and will be used to reduce water losses in the existing Resnik water supply system in Jajce. In the city of Zvornik, the investment grant will be allocated to the construction of a wastewater treatment plant for Tabanci and a water supply system in Lokanj-Pilica.
Those investments are part of an EU-funded project approved under the Western Balkans Investment Framework in 2019 to support the implementation of the “Water and Sanitation” programmes in the Federation and in Republika Srpska of BiH.
