The aim of this documents is to establish performance-based accountability for the Faecal Sludge Treatment Plants/ Integrated Waste Management Plant across Bangladesh. The government has made urban sanitation a priority to enhance faecal sludge management, and as part of this initiative, the National Action Plan 2021-2030 has been endorsed to enforce the Institutional and Regulatory Framework for Faecal Sludge Management (IRF-FSM). A number of Faecal Sludge Treatment plants is being operated by the municipality and city corporations across the country and there is a need to established performance based accountability. The department of Public Health Engineering has already established Integrated Waste Management (IWM) plants that will treat faecal sludge and solid waste at the same treatment plant. To ensure performance a set of standards and accountability mechanisms is very essential. Therefore, this Metrics and Service Level Benchmark (SBL) document will serve as a guidance tool for ensuring performance efficiency of Faecal Sludge Treatment plants/ Integrated Waste Management Plants (IWM) through a minimum standard set of parameters commonly understood and used by all stakeholders. An evaluation framework and performance monitoring system are also included in this document, enabling a municipality to easily assess their Faecal Sludge Treatment Plants/ Integrated Waste Management plants using specific indicators. This document has also mapped the current locations of existing Faecal Sludge Treatment Plants (FSTP's) in Bangladesh along with their establishment year, treatment capacity, flow rate, design criteria, CapEx and OpEx. The performance report will gauge the effectiveness of Faecal Sludge Treatment plants /Integrated Waste Management Plant(IWM) based on these indicators so that municipalities/city corporations can analyze their performance and set goals for the following year to ensure accountability based on results.
