Aspects environnementaux

Had it been in the EU, the project would fall under Annex II of the EIA Directive and the need for a fully-fledged Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) would be established by the competent authority on a case-by-case basis. For this project, an EIA was carried out under the supervision of the World Bank. During appraisal, the EIB will check the compliance of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA), the Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP) and other environmental and social management systems in place with EIB's standards.

Passation des marchés

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