“…The paper uses this test for unspecified parameters (i.e., parameters estimated from the data) and various distributions. There, the p-value corresponding to the test statistic was estimated from simulations [86,87], computing cvm(sample, CDF 1 ) from random samples drawn from the hypothesized distribution CDF and using the distribution CDF 1 with best fit parameters for the sample. (This method is implemented in the Mathematica function DistributionFitTest using the Monte-Carlo method.)…”

Based on experiences about the planning of decentralized wastewater treatment systems for slums of two rural towns in India, the paper asks to what extent affordability for the future users may impede the realization of other sustainability goals. The planning aimed at ensuring economic, social, and environmental sustainability. To this end the planning process promoted the participation of stakeholders and it was supplemented by an in-depth analysis (using novel methods) of the socio-economic situation of the future users. In particular, an approach towards estimating willingness to pay from small samples was developed. Taking all this information into account, planning identified a well-established technology that it is inexpensive, robust, and easy to maintain. The experiences of this planning process may generalize to other developing countries seeking socially acceptable low cost solutions with reasonable pollution reduction for resolving the sanitation crisis.
