__NOTOC__
Operations and minor Capital maintenance expenditure is the costs of routine minor maintenance needed renewing, replacing, rehabilitating, refurbishing or restoring assets to keep water and sanitation systems running ensure that services continue at the designed same level of performancethat was first delivered. It includes recurrent, regular and Examples include replacing a motor ona power pump or the pump rods/rising main/handle in a handpump; cleaning/re-going expenditure on labourexcavating the base of a hand-dug well; relaying the drainage field for a septic tank; flushing a borehole which no longer delivers the desired flow; cleaning a water tank, fueletc. The renewal of these assets, chemicalsoften after some years of operation, materials, or purchases of bulk water. Operational expenditure also includes ‘household coping costs’ by which households spend money to achieve a satisfactory ensures the same level of service; i.e. cleaning products for sanitary facilities, energy costs, etcthat users received when the asset was first installed.
Operations and minor Planning for capital maintenance expenditure does not include major repairs or renewals is crucial to the sustainability of water or , sanitation infrastructureand hygiene services as shown in figure 1. This is considered expenditure on [[Capital Maintenance (CapManEx)|The red line shows a steady decline in service levels in the absence of capital maintenance (CapManEx)]]as a system degrades over time. ==Examples=='''Benchmarks Eventually there is a need for renewed capital maintenance expenditure''' <br>Based on research from to replace the [[#WASHCost|WASHCost]] project, the minimum operations and minor maintenance expenditure to provide a basic level of water asset.

      ==Links==<div id="WASHCost">'''WASHCostDifference between operational expenditure and capital maintenance'''</divbr>* WASHCost was a five-year action research programmeWhen an existing system undergoes minor maintenance, for example regular greasing of bearing points or tightening of pump bolts, running from 2008 to 2012the related cost is part of [[Operational and Minor Maintenances Expenditure (OpEx)|operational and minor maintenances expenditure (OpEx)]]. The WASHCost team gathered information related point where minor maintenance becomes capital maintenance is a matter of frequency; ‘does the cost occur more than once a year?’ and of amount; ‘Is the cost significant compared to the costs of providing wateron-going operational expenditure?’. For example, sanitation, and hygiene services for an entire life-cycle although the cost of emptying a service twin pit or shallow pit- from implementation all latrine may be significant compared to the way to post-initial investment needed for construction. The WASHCost programme was led by IRC International Water and Sanitation Centre with several partners , it occurs frequently, at least compared to collect data in the rural and peri-urban areas life cycle of Burkina Faso, Ghana, Indiathe latrine itself, and Mozambique.
