Summary sheet
Co-financing of selected measures of the Slovakian Rural Development Programme
The EIB project will support afforestation, improved forest management and protection, and small-scale rural and agricultural infrastructure. Specific, long-term orientated Rural Development Programme measures will be included. Investments will take place all over the country.
The operation will actively seek to promote sustainable afforestation and rural environmental management both in selection and implementation of subprojects. Certain activities may require an EIA subject to the judgment of the competent authority, in accordance with Annex II of the Environmental Impact Assessment Directive (2011/92/EU). Where an action may affect a Natura 2000 site (designated according to the Habitats Directive 92/43/EEC or Birds Directive 79/409/EEC), the Bank requires the promoter to follow the directives’ procedures as transposed into national law.
The Bank will require the Promoter to ensure that contracts for the implementation of the project have been/shall been be tendered in accordance with the relevant applicable EU procurement legislation (Dir 2004/18/EC and Dir 2007/66/EC), with publication of tender notices in the EU Official Journal, as and where required.
