Haiti - Grand-Nord : The Director General of DINEPA on a construction site assessment tour
On Saturday, April 19, 2025, as part of his site assessment tour in the Grand-Nord region, engineer Théophil Ostinvil, the new Director General of the National Directorate of Drinking Water and Sanitation (DINEPA), a specialist in drinking water services engineering who has been in office since February 25, 2025, conducted a field visit to the Regional Office for Drinking Water and Sanitation (OREPA-Nord), specifically to the town of Fort-Liberté.

The main objective of this visit was to assess the progress of the rehabilitation and expansion work on the town's drinking water supply system, as part of project referenced T-AOPI No. 26-07/21.

Launched on December 12, 2022, by the TEMPO-STP Acuster consortium, the work has only reached a 35% completion rate to date. Faced with these significant delays, Théophil Ostinvil has formally instructed the consortium in charge to submit, as soon as possible, an updated implementation schedule and a clear and concise methodology for finalizing the project. The objective is to enable better supervision of the work and accelerate its progress.

It should be noted that this distribution network rehabilitation and construction work includes the supply and execution of all water supply network extension work, including the development and equipment of boreholes with a solar-powered pumping system and a large portion of the distribution network for the town of Fort Liberté. These include : supply and installation of 18 km of HDPE pipe, supply and installation of 700 private connections, supply and installation of 18 km of HDPE pipe, supply and installation of 700 private connections, development and equipment of a 15 ¾-inch, 40 ml-deep borehole with a 17 l/s submersible pump and hydraulic accessories, construction and rehabilitation of eight kiosks, and more.

After his visit to Fort-Liberté, Théophil Ostinvil continued his tour in the town of Limonade, where he inspected the construction of a fecal sludge treatment plant.

This facility, designed for the safe treatment of human excrement, is a key link in the national sanitation strategy. It will serve a large part of the Nord and Nord-Est departments. As of April 19, 2025, the work was over 40% complete.

This project, also funded by the Spanish Agency for International Development Cooperation (AECID), is part of the drive to strengthen local capacities in liquid waste management, with direct impacts on public health and environmental protection.

Théophil Ostinvil assured that his administration will place particular emphasis on rigorously monitoring the progress of this work, in full compliance with government directives.
