The Project Area lies within the Greater Nairobi Area Envelope identified under the Feasibility Study and Master Plan for Developing New Water Sources for Nairobi and Satellite Towns (egis/MIBP, 2015). The Greater Nairobi Area Envelope is an extension of the Nairobi City area to include the contiguous adjacent areas which have a development pattern similar to the Nairobi City. Most of the residents in these areas commute to Nairobi daily for work, schooling etc. These towns have developed rapidly to become dormitory towns of the Capital City, creating huge pressure on existing water and sanitation facilities.
