Umweltaspekte

If located in the EU, the project would fall under Annex II of Directive 85/337/EEC and its amendments, requiring the component authority to determine whether an EIA is required. Normally ElAs would not be expected given the focus on medium and low voltage networks, whose impacts are related to visual nuisance, vegetation clearance and disturbances during construction. The local environmental assessment rules, biodiversity and social impacts have been assessed during appraisal and the promoter's capacity to address them is good.

Auftragsvergabe

The Bank will require the promoter to ensure that implementation of the project will be done in compliance with the Bank's Guide to Procurement.
