I. PROJECT STATUS AND RATIONALE FOR RESTRUCTURING

A. Context 1. The Restructuring Paper seeks approval to restructure the Ecosystem Management and Conservation Project to revise the total project cost to US$35.00m by cancelling uncommitted funds amounting to US$10.00m. This has reference to the partial credit cancellation request made to The World Bank via letter no. ERD/WB/ COVID19/ EMERGENCY dated May 6, 2020 by the Government of Sri Lanka (GoSL) to support emergency priorities and needs emerging from COVID 19.

B. Project Status and Performance 2. The Project was approved by the Board on April 25, 2016 for a total IDA Credit of US$45 million. The Financing Agreement was signed on September 5, 2016 by the Ministry of Finance and the World Bank. The Bank had received the Legal Opinion from the Attorney General on September 28, 2016 and the project was made effective on December 1, 2016. It has disbursed US$16.38 million or 47 percent of the total as of June 2020. The closing date is June 30, 2021. 3. The project completed a restructuring on April 23, 2020 following the GoSL’s request received on February 18, 2020. The restructuring finalized the transition from a framework approach used in the project earlier towards complete Project Implementation Plan (PIP) reviewed and endorsed by the project’s Technical Review Committee and by the Ministry of Environment and Wildlife Resources (MoEWR) on February 14, 2020. The restructuring introduced changes to allocations between the components, disbursement categories, results framework and introduced a Contingent Emergency Response (CERC) component. At the time of the request there was an uncommitted balance of $4.00m which was proposed for a partial cancellation. However, this was not effected at the request of Secretary to the President who directed that the funding be repurposed to support Component 2, which was implementing solutions to the Human–Elephant conflict. 4. A month later the COVID-19 pandemic became a risk in Sri Lanka. These risks forced the GoSL to impose “work from home” orders and a nation-wide curfew banning inter-district travel beginning on March 20, 2020, which shut down most of the project’s activities and physical works. This emergency situation severely restricted implementation of the project activities, halted meetings, community consultations, physical works, and construction. The Project Management Unit (PMU) remained functional and continued preparation and contracting processes according to the endorsed PIP, utilizing video conference capabilities for virtual meetings and introduced new procedures for the Technical Review Committee. 5. The Project’s overall implementation progress remains Moderately Unsatisfactory (MU) as of February 2020 on account of being behind the targets. The large delays that have occurred in the previous year due to low implementation capacity and lack of a robust implementation plan have continued to influence the project’s progress. Substantial efforts have been undertaken to improve human resources and planning capacity in the Project Management Unit (PMU) during the FY20. The planning and implementation arrangement issues have been addressed through mobilizing human resources, preparing and approving the project’s implementation plan that incorporates the partial cancellation, and reviewing individual activities to ensure their timely completion before the project’s closure date of June 30, 2021. Currently, the readiness of the PMU and the Implementing Agencies (IAs) to respond to the implementation challenges and to catch up with previous delays was considered quite satisfactory. 6. The project made significant progress in commencing remaining activities; major achievements to date are consistent with the projected activity plans and planned targets in the Results Framework. Pilot conservation landscape management plan for dry zone was prepared and reviewed by national and international experts and is undergoing

iv The World Bank Ecosystem Conservation and Management (P156021) revisions; the second of the proposed plans for wet zone is on track for delivery in December 2020. These outputs of Component 1 will contribute to longer-term integrated conservation and development plans at district level and will also contribute to a new approach to generating increased ecosystem benefits for communities, which is the project’s first direct impact (see Figure 1). Component 2 is on track to generate two more outcomes that will contribute to increased ecosystem benefits to the communities: (i) better opportunities for collaborative management and sustainable use of natural resources through implementation of the prepared Community Action Plans (58 of 60 planned CAPs are prepared and being implemented), and (ii) reduced damages to crops and human lives from human-elephant conflict through an additional number of 107 villages and agricultural plots protected by electric fences, piloted insurance scheme and early- warning system. Critical sectoral analyses and studies, as well as institutionalization of the piloted approaches are being conducted with project support. The project’s second impact – enhanced protection of sensitive ecosystems – is more integral and is generated by three groups of activities under Component 3. Activities under eleven PA management plans, enhanced wildlife habitats (300,000 ha of 350,000 ha planned), and conservation status and law enforcement monitoring systems (three out of four that were planned) are being largely completed to date; these outputs contribute to the improved PA management system outcome. The second group of activities improve quality of nature-based tourism in PAs through enhanced plans (five out of seven planned), facilities, and services. The third group of activities is contributing to improving training facilities (three large training centers), training curriculums for two training programs, and training of 500 staff directly (planned 310) for improved longer-term capacity for ecosystem management. Delivery of the training facilities is on the critical path due to COVID-related delays on the construction schedule and as such will be monitored very closely. 7. Recommencement of the remaining works on Kudawa Access Road in Sinharaja Forest Reserve involved in the World Bank’s Inspection Panel request has been delayed due to COVID-19 constraints. The Panel did not recommend an investigation and the Board of Executive Directors approved this decision on March 10, 2020. The PMU has submitted to the Bank all the necessary documentation to proceed with the balance of work of the Kudawa access road contract; the Bank’s guidance on compliance and completion of rehabilitation works (9-point summary of agreements) was outlined in a letter on March 19, 2020. The status updates provided by the PMU indicated that the Forest Department (FD) continued engagement and consultations with the contractor, the Kudawa community, and the supervising / monitoring team of University of Moratuwa during the “work from home” period, however, the physical works have not been recommenced. A meeting between the FD, PMU biodiversity specialist and the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) to plan the recommencing of works was held on June 15, 2020. The works have been scheduled for recommencement in the second half of June 2020 and will be closely observed by the Environmental Monitoring Committee appointed specifically to monitor the remaining repair works. These site visits will be adequately documented, and the key outcomes shared with the World Bank team.

C. Rationale for Restructuring 8. The Department of External Resources (ERD) submitted a request to restructure the project in a letter dated May 6, 2020, Inputs required from the Government of Sri Lanka to Scale up the Support for Emergency Needs due to COVID-19. In this request the ERD identified three projects, including the ESCAMP, which had uncommitted funds for cancellation and re-purposing to support emergency programmes carried out by the Government targeting vulnerable households. The request identified US$10.00m to be cancelled from IDA-57920 – Ecosystem Conservation and Management Project and re-commit the amount towards an Additional Financing for the Sri Lanka COVID-19 Emergency Response and Health Systems Preparedness Project (P173867) before June 30, 2020.

II. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED CHANGES

9. The main changes include partial cancellation of US$10.00m, adjustment in the costs of the components and subcomponents, disbursement categories and estimates, and revision of the results framework. The project development objective remains intact.

D. Cancelled Activities and New Costs 10. To accommodate the request, more than 60 project activities are being cancelled. The project approached this task by carefully evaluating the remaining activities in terms of timeliness of their implementation, contribution to the Results Framework and Project Development Objective (PDO). In order to avoid termination of the signed and ongoing contracts, the implementing agencies (IAs) – the Forest Department (FD) and the Department of Wildlife Conservation (DWC) – selected for the cancellation, a number of small-in-value activities that had been prepared for implementation but not procured. 11. Several groups of activities are being cancelled under the following project components: Component 1: Pilot landscape planning and management: communications management contract reduced in scope; Component 2: Sustainable use of natural resources and human-elephant co-existence: village and agricultural land fencing programme reduced in scope; Component 3: Protected areas management and institutional capacity: capacity building and training programs for wildlife officers; rehabilitation and construction of administrative buildings in the national parks; rehabilitation of water tanks for wildlife conservation; rehabilitation of access and park internal roads; purchase of transport vehicles; development of new camping sites; and consultancies; Component 4: Project Management: reduced in scope; Component 5: Contingent Emergency Response (CERC): remains intact. A partial cancellation has been processed outside the project portal via an Office Memorandum with the Cancellation Letter signed on May 28, 2020 to enable prompt recommitment of the cancelled IDA resources before June 30, 2020. Following this approval of the partial cancellation, IDA Credit 57920-LK was reduced in the amount of SDR7,344,355 to the Net Commitment of $35.00m in the project portal. Therefore, this Restructuring Paper's datasheet is not showing Cancellation which has been already processed. Details on the cancelled activities are in Section V. 12. The following changes to costs by components are introduced.

F. Disbursement Estimates 14. The following changes to disbursement projections are being proposed in line with the new project implementation plan, assuming no change to the project implementation period. Table 2. Proposed disbursement estimates, US$ million

Fiscal year 2016 2017 2018 2019 2020 2021 Annual - 2.88 3.00 7.20 3.30 18.62 Cumulative - 2.88 5.88 13.08 16.38 35.00 15. The project will experience an intense implementation period in the remaining year if it is to utilize the balance of $18.62m. Understanding the challenge, the task team in discussions with the PMU has requested the MoEWR leadership to focus on monitoring progress. Responding to the request, MoEWR Secretary committed to hold monthly progress review meetings with both IAs, and the PMU. These meetings will be focusing on monthly disbursements against the plans that IAs have prepared; reviewing issues that come up agreeing on solutions for ongoing and anticipated issues. Contract management is another area of concern; the task team is providing support and hands on guidance and is considering supporting it with a consultant. Based on the monthly financial forecasts prepared by the IAs, the PMU has requested $9.00m advance for the next 6 months, i.e. June-December 2020. 16. Restrictions imposed by Covid-19 have been hampering the scale and pace of implementation. The impacts have been mostly due to restrictions on organizing face-to-face meetings between staff and with communities, limiting the

1 XDR 7,344,355

vii The World Bank Ecosystem Conservation and Management (P156021)

number of workers on a site, banned cross-district movement of labor force, and uncertainties and delays due to imposed “work from home” period. No significant procurement delays were experienced so far, as the PMU promptly mobilized procedures for remote work, and these are not anticipated for the remaining period. Physical works have been gradually recommencing beginning from early June 2020, going with limited number of workers on sites, proactive planning and supervision of the contractors, and continuous guidance from the Bank’s task team that has been provided on a bi-weekly basis via video conferencing. Safeguards specialists have provided the full scope of best practices, international and national guidelines, as well as the project-specific guidance on preventing and mitigating Covid-19 impacts. The PMU is planning on full utilization of the requested funds during the next 6 months period given that the level of disruptions caused by Covid-19 has not increased. 17. As requested by the ERD, the project will undergo a detailed progress review in October 2020 to identify the underperforming activities. The GOSL and WB may agree to drop / suspend the activities which could not meet the targeted completion date and the respective loan provisions will be partially cancelled. G. Results Framework
