INTRODUCTION
1. This document contains: a list of external loans signed in 1978; a list of projects for 1979 originallyincluded in, but subsequentlydeleted from, the 1977-79 Project List (World Bank Report Number 1591-CO); a list of projects for which the Colombian Governmentwill seek external financing in the years 1979-82 (in the form of summary tables and in detailed project- by-project descriptions);and a list of technical assistanceprojects which refer either to the preparationor support of investmentsincluded in the Project List.
2. Both the investment and technical assistance projects presented here were identified and elaboratedby the Colombian Government, and support its developmentpriorities. While the Government hopes to begin executing all of these projects during the 1979-1982 period, it is quite likely that some scheduleswill change as a result of either cancellationor postponement of projects. Past experience shows that such changes may be substantial, although it is not possible to identify which project shcedules might change.
3. The compositionof the List of investment projects and the related List of technicalassistance projects reflects the emphasis which the Colombian Government has accorded to infrastructuredevelopment, particularly electric power and transportation,to social developmentand to the growth of agricul- tural, industrialand mining production.,
4. The electric power sector accounts for some US$2.2 billion (38%) out of a total of US$5.9 billion of external project financing included in the List. Taking account of the projects already being executed and assuming that these and others included in the present List were executied on schedule, eleven new generationprojects would be completedand work on another twelve would be started in the period 1979-82. Transmissionand rural electrification would also receive major impetus.
5. Transport infrastructureranks second to electric power in terms of pro- posed committmentsfor external financing; the List contains 24 transportation projects with total external financing requirementsof nearly US$1.2 billion over four years, 20% of the total. Basic objectiveswould be to promote physical integrationbetween regions and markets and to facilitate communications with neighbouringcountries. The several highway projects include some new roads (such as that through the Darien Gap), a rehabilitationprogram for paved roads, a paving program for high density routes and an extensive research program. The railway system would benefit from new investments,navigation on the Magdalena River would be improved, as would the major ports, and urban transportationwould be developed in Bogota and Medellin. The List also includes telecommunicationprojects totaling US$280 million in external financing. - ii -
6. While such projects are seen by the Government as essential in order to provide the basic infrastructureframework for acceleratedeconomic growth, others are designed to raise productivityand to bring immediate improvementsin the living conditions of both rural and urban populations. Prominant among these are the projects to increase agriculturalproductivity and raise rural incomes (23 projects, US$671 million in external financing); those to raise industrial and mining output (11 projects, US$953 million in external financing);those to improve water supply and sanitation facilities (10 projects, US$285 million in external financing);those to develop urban areas (five projects, US$138 million in external financing); and projects in education,nutrition and health (seven projects, US$134 million in external financing). 7. Table 1, which follows, provides a summary of the basic information on total investment costs and external financingby sector for the period 1979-82. TABLE 1

VI. LENDING AGENCY: Private Foreign Banks
VII. DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION: The aim of the project is to considerably increase the generating capacity(by 27% which is equivalent to approximately 88GWH/ year) of the Chivor hydroelectric plant, by diverting the Negro and Ru- cio Rivers, which are tributaries of the Guavio River, towards the valley of the Bata River and by redirecting the Tunjita River, a tributary of the Lengua- pa, to the Esmeralda reservoir. The work will include building dams and reservoirs, waterways and wasteways, in order to remove the accumulated sediment so that the catchment dams and rese- voirs can work as efficiently as possible;dredging facilities will be provided. This will not only expand the generating capacity and lower the electricity defi- cit for the period 1981-1985, but will also reduce the cost of each KWH generat- ed by the project which compares favorably with other projects under study. The diversion of the Tunjito River will come into operation in July 1981 and that of the Negro and Rucio Rivers in 1982.

IV. TOTAL ESTIMATED COST: US$ 1,000.0 million
V. EXTERNAL FINANCING REQUESTED: US$ 200 million 1/
VI. LENDING AGENCY: Suppliers and Foreign Bank
VII. DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION: Urban transportation is one of the most serious problems confronting Bogota which has 35.6% of the national vehicle fleet and 20% of the national population. Because of congestion (vehicles move at an average speed of only 18.9 km/hr. during working hours), and in order to meet the requirements of an ever-growing city, the Special District of Bogota has deemed it appropriate to set up a mass transportation program. Alternatives, such as surface and underground railways are being analized.
VIII. COSTS AND AVAILABILITY OF FUNDS: (In US$m.)
Details are not yet available
IX. STATUS: Feasibility studies will be financed by FONADE. The Special District has in hand several studies on solutions to mass transportation in Bogota. Feasibility studies will be carried out during 1979 and 1980.

IV. TOTAL ESTIMATED COST: US$ 76.6 million
V. EXTERNAL FINANCING REQUESTED: US$ 38.3 million
VI. LENDING AGENCY: Interamerican Development Bank
VII. DESCRIPTION AND JUSTIFICATION: The purpose of this project is to build an alternative highway between the Valleys of Magdalena and Cauca, since the current one, (Ibague-Armenia) apart from being geologically unstable, has poor geometric characteristics which do not conform to the load or type of traffic using this road. According to studies conducted by MOPT it would be more ad- vantageous to build this road rather than a railroad between Ibague and Arme- nia. The route would start in Melgar and end near Buga, with a total length ranging between 290 Kms. and 330 Kms. This would include the construction of 38 Kms. between Chaparral and the Central Cordillera, as well as the straight- ening, widening and construction of some alternative roads.

V. DESCRIPTION OF THE STUDIES: The Llanos Orientales is a vast area in eastern Colombia with important livestock potential that: is not inte- grated with the rest of the country, because of inadequate transportation and conmunications infrastructure.
Taking account of investments by the private sector, especially in livestock, the study should identify public investment projects in the Llanos Orientales (see page 139:) which will have a significant impact on regional development. Special emphasis should be given to the physical infrastructure and the study shouLd also identify poles of nuclear growth where investments in urban and soc:ial infrastructure should be concentrated.
In addition, the study will make recommendations in respect of policies for promoting economic activity in the Llanos.
The investment program to be identified will be subject to the pertinent technical and economic feasibility studies.
Final terms of reference are expected to be available in September, 1979.
To carry out the studies experts in the following fields will be required:
