An estimated $2 billion have been spent on Tehran’s wastewater network development plan since 1995, the head of provincial wastewater company said.
"The venture has totally registered a work-in-progress rate of 63% and it requires at least $710 million to be completed," Morteza Ezzeddin was also quoted as saying by IRNA.
The official noted that the initiative was primarily supposed to be funded by the World Bank, but after the imposition of sanctions on the country, other sources, such as the Energy Ministry, the Islamic Development Bank and Tehran City Council, were tapped.
