MACC signed the contract for the construction of the Amer sewage pumping station with the Palestinian Water Authority's Project Management Unit, a Sida-funded station of 1,200 m³/h in Jabalia.

MACC has signed the agreement for the construction of the Amer sewage pumping station (contract PWA/Sida/SS.NG.36) at the office of the Palestinian Water Authority's Project Management Unit. MACC's price was not the lowest submitted, and the PMU awarded the contract on the strength of the company's experience and qualifications in pumping station works.

The project, funded by Sida, comprises a 1,200 m³/h pumping station in Jabalia with bar screen and wet and dry wells, a service building, a generator room with a 400 kVA standby generator and fuel tanks, the mechanical and electrical works, and about 500 m of 630 mm UPVC gravity sewer from the collection manhole to the inlet manhole. The works involve about 1,500 m³ of earthworks and 800 m³ of concrete.

The contract is valued at US$ 1,452,323, with the works programmed from January 2011 to April 2012.
