1 This table shows the Exchequer contribution paid towards the projects. In the water and wastewater sector, many PPP projects are procured on a design, build, operate and maintain (DBOM) basis. In these cases, the Exchequer provides up-front capital funding so there are no capital or financing costs to be paid back over the life of the project. Annual operating costs (paid by the relevant local authorities) are based on the volume of water/wastewater arriving for treatment.
