Raw wastewater from the West Bank cities of Hebron, Ramallah, Nablus, Jenin and their adjacent villages are pumped either to sewage pits or local treatment facilities, where they undergo little to no treatment before being pumped out to major West Bank streams. The West Bank cities have several treatment infrastructure plans in the works, but most are still only on paper. Creating an infrastructure which could both remedy the existing situation and avert future pollution is expected to cost $200 million, and Israel, international environmental groups and the World Bank are willing to foot the bill. The problem is that the Palestinians see any cooperation on this issue as "collaboration" with Israel. They're filthy pigs.

Moreover, illegal outposts and unauthorized settlement expansions are not connected to any wastewater treatment centers and are pumping effluent into sewage pits." "The Israeli-Palestinian cooperation on wastewater management is virtually nonexistent, with only the West Bank city of Qalqilya, the west part of Bethlehem and about half of Tulkarem connected to Israeli treatment facilities." Same article . The article was correct in that co-operation is the key to fixing this environmental problem. I think it should also be noted that sewage contamination of water supplies and natural habitats is a worldwide issue, even in the USA. sewage document (pdf file) EDIT: had to remove some terrible grammar mistakes. sighs* EDIT #2: added * EDIT #3: fixed a link Moo Last Edited By: timemole 09/29/08 11:22 AM.
