Environmental Impact Assessment for Wastewater Treatment Unit at Public Security Directorate Compound  

The environmental impact assessment (EIA) study
conducted for the construction of Wastewater Treatment Unit (WWTU) at Public Security
Directorate compound (PSD) in Moqablane area south of Amman. The project aims at installing
and operating a wastewater treatment unit (WWTU) to provide a sustainable and effective
treatment system for the community of the PSD. It is designed to be simply operated,
economically viable with low or no environmental risks. The reclaimed water will be used for
landscaping within the boundaries of PSD compound. Therefore, WWTU effluent should meet the
relevant Jordanian Standard.
The EIA was focused on the main issues identified during consultation process with the different
stakeholders (including the public and the project proponent) that would interact with the
important environmental elements at the project site .
