Year Source: World Bank. Note: The figure shows the years at which the different water sources need to be developed to meet the growing water demand for Nairobi. The volume of water supplies from each source has been determined based on meeting medium-term water demand projections. Some of the sources might need to be developed at the same time (for example, Northern Collector 1 and water demand management; leakage management and stormwater harvesting). m3/d = cubic meters per day.

most recent proposals from the draft water master plan (AWSB, 2012) with one of the scenarios from the IUWM systems approach that includes a number of additional sources of water, including stormwater and grey-
