The project comprises a multi-sector multi-scheme operation. All of the schemes are expected to fall under Annex II of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive 2011/92/EU. Should any scheme have a negative impact on an area forming part of the Natura 2000 network (as defined under Habitats Directive 92/43/EEC and the Birds Directive 79/409/EEC), then the Bank would require the financial intermediary and the final beneficiary to act according to the provisions of the aforementioned directives as transposed in the national law.
The Bank will require the financial intermediary to ensure that contracts for the implementation of the schemes have been/shall be tendered in accordance with the relevant applicable EU procurement legislation (Dir 2004/18/EEC/ or 2004/17/EEC and Dir. 2007/66/EC), with parallel publication of tender notices in the EU Official Journal, as and where appropriate.
