The rest of the population is supported by the Ministry of Rural Development (113 rural water systems). 1.2 Prioritize the establishment of a regional policy on governance in water and sanitation. This policy should define the responsibility of steering the sector, monitoring the quality of services and must have a comprehensive knowledge management component that includes identifying inequities among population groups. Administration occurs through various levels - the Public Utilities Commission that is in charge of tariffs and development capital; Public Health which monitors water quality; the Ministry of Finance who works in conjunction with the IDB; the Caribbean Development Bank and the World Bank. 1.3 It is a priority that the health ministries of the countries of Central America and the Dominican Republic strengthen health surveillance of water systems; that physical, chemical and bacteriological parameters is to monitor, especially Surveillance of the quality of water systems is mandated by law for the Ministry of Health of Belize.

Nationally, the Solid Waste Management Authority is implementing the Solid Waste Management Project funded by the IDB and OFID (OPEC Fund for International Development). The objective is to improve waste management in the Western Corridor. A regional sanitary landfill and two of four transfer stations have been constructed and are operational. Since August 2013, the landfill has been receiving an average of 2,000 tons of waste per month for environmentally sound disposal. Under this same project a consultancy is being carried out to prepare a National Solid Waste Management Policy Strategy and to update the National Solid Waste Management Plan. The Ministry of Rural Development is supported by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) through the Millennium Development Goals. This support is financial as well as through the review of the Water Board Legislation. BWSL is investing BZ$ 3M in Belize City in the water system. 2
