The United States of America, acting through the Millennium Challenge Corporation (�MCC�) and the Government of Mongolia (the �Government�) have entered into a Millennium Challenge Compact for Millennium Challenge Account assistance to help facilitate poverty reduction through economic growth in Mongolia (the �Compact�) in the amount of 350 million USD (�MCC Funding�). Pursuant to the Compact, the Government committed to making a contribution over the Compact term toward meeting the project objective of the Compact (the �Government Contribution�). The Government, acting through Millennium Challenge Account-Mongolia (the �MCA-Mongolia�), intends to apply a portion of the Government Contribution to eligible payments under a contract associated with this Invitation for Bids. In compliance with the principles set forth in Annex IV of the Program Implementation Agreement, dated March 5, 2019, between MCC and the Government, any payments made by the MCA-Mongolia under the proposed contract will be subject, in all respects, to the terms and conditions of the Compact and related documents, including restrictions on the use and distribution of MCC Funding. No party other than the Government and the MCA-Mongolia shall derive any rights from the Compact or have any claim to the proceeds of MCC Funding or the Government Contribution. The Compact and its related documents can be found on the MCC website (www.mcc.gov) and the MCA-Mongolia website (https://mca-mongolia.gov.mn/). 2. The Compact will assist the Government in meeting the projected demand for water in the capital city of Ulaanbaatar for residential consumers and commercial and industrial users through a Water Supply Project, consisting of three closely related activities: � A Downstream Wells Activity, to construct new groundwater wells with attendant transmission lines, reservoirs, and an advanced water purification plant (AWPP); � A Wastewater Recycling Activity, to construct a new wastewater recycling plant and pipelines to provide high-quality treated wastewater that can be used instead of freshwater by water-intensive industries, thereby increasing the amount of fresh water available for household consumption; and � A Water Sector Sustainability Activity, to support policy reforms, capacity building, and technical assistance to improve the long-term sustainability of Ulaanbaatar�s water supply. 3.
