Pasadena’s Tetra Tech Earns $28 Million Contract for Improved Water Management in Jordan

Tetra Tech, Inc. announced Monday that the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has awarded the Company a $28 million, single-award contract to improve water sector management and governance in the country of Jordan.

Under the five-year project, Tetra Tech will support the Government of Jordan to achieve measurable improvements and greater sustainability of the water sector. Tetra Tech will provide technical assistance to strengthen the government’s efforts in reform, capacity building, and policy development and implementation.

Tetra Tech will help improve the sustainability of Jordan’s water supply systems, improve water conservation and water governance systems, and protect water resources. Through targeted technical assistance and capacity building, Tetra Tech will support the implementation of improved utility management practices, especially those related to non-revenue water reduction and improved cost recovery. Tetra Tech also will develop water demand management programs and behavior change communication strategies aimed at enhancing water conservation.

“Tetra Tech supports all phases of the water cycle and has longstanding experience working in water scarce regions,” said Dan Batrack, Tetra Tech Chairman and CEO. “This makes us ideally suited to support USAID in improving the management and sustainability of Jordan’s water resources.”
