Repair and Rehabilitation of the Oxidation Ponds
UNON intended to rehabilitate the existing oxidation ponds in order to sustain the ever-growing number of staff and visitors within the complex. One primary aim of the project is improving operational efficiency of the ponds by increasing retention time of each pond hence better treatment of waste water which is re-used to irrigate the green landscape within the Complex. The construction methodology works ensured that existing services supply are not interrupted.
The works involved included the removal and disposal of the sewage waste, Re-shaping, deepening, compacting and grading the sides and bottom of the ponds and Installation of new Geotextile, HDPE liners and HDPE baffles.
- Design for rerouting of waste water from the existing system to the newly constructed system
- Installation of ten (10) under sink grease traps for the existing kitchens

Water Supply in Warsheikh District, Somalia
In efforts to improve services in Warsheikh town which is one of the oldest coastal towns in Somalia, SSF, with other partners engaged LFE to provide a hydrogeological survey, site assessment, and Engineering design for the proposed boreholes and associated water supply works in Warsheikh. LFE supervised the drilling of the borehole and the construction of the water supply system.
SSF also proposed to supply a solar mini hybrid energy system that is independent and reliable. This intervention contributed to the improvement of the quality of the lifestyle of the target beneficiaries. This project provided electricity to 200 homes and business premises of the Warsheikh residents, reducing the expenses of purchasing unsafe power alternatives.
