Role in marine infrastructure

Lesotho Lowlands Water Development Project Phase II is the Government of Lesotho's time-bound delivery programme for priority packages of the Lowlands Water Supply Scheme. The World Bank's 2025 additional-financing paper identifies the Commissioner of Water within the Ministry of Natural Resources as the implementing entity and the Lowlands Unit as implementing agency. LLWDP-II coordinates bulk-water intakes, treatment works, transmission mains, pumping stations, reservoirs and distribution improvements in Zones 2 and 3 around Hlotse and Maputsoe and Zones 6 and 7 around Mafeteng and Mohale's Hoek, alongside project management, safeguards, institutional strengthening and WASCO performance work.
