After a civil war lasting five years, the democratically elected Sierra Leone government signed a peace treaty with the rebel faction in November 1996 and the country intensified the reconstruction of its infrastructure. This paper describes the aims, the existing situation, the various stages and the main conclusions of the World Bank financed Master Plan study for the water supply of the three provincial capitals (Bo, Kenema and Makeni). The study was undertaken by Howard Humphreys (HH) as lead consultant, in association with Dutch consultant IWACO, and local consultants ENGCON and Techsult.
