    Objectives

    Expansion of the container terminal at Muuga Harbour, and construction of new quays for dry bulk cargo at Paldiski South Harbour

EIAs, biodiversity assessment requirements and environmental monitoring plans will be checked during appraisal.

    The Bank will require the Promoter to ensure that contracts for the implementation of the project have been/will be tendered in accordance with the relevant applicable EU procurement legislation, with parallel publication of tender notices in the EU Official Journal, as and where appropriate.
