  • Initial Project Summary Project Location: Stepantsminda, Kazbegi
    Initial Project Summary Project Location: Stepantsminda, Kazbegi Municipality, Georgia Name of Applicant: Dariali Energy Name of Project: Dariali Hydropower Project Project Description: The proposed Project involves the construction and operation of a 108 MW hydropower project on the Tergi River near the village of Stepantsminda, close to the Georgia- Russia border. The Project will impound the Tergi River with a 6 m high concrete dam and will include a .25 hectare intake pond. Water will be diverted around approximately 5 km of the river from the intake structure through an underground power house and back to the river through the tailrace channel. The Project will be required to maintain a minimum flow of at least 2.54 m3/s. The power will initially be evacuated via a 110 kV transmission line which connects the Georgian and Russian energy systems until a new 220 or 500 kV capacity line that is being considered by the Georgian State Electricity system is completed. Environmental and Social Categorization and Rationale: The Project has been reviewed against OPIC’s policy related to dam projects and determined to be categorically eligible for further consideration. The Project has been screened as Category A because potential impacts are diverse and potentially irreversible. The main environmental and social concerns are related to diversion of river flow and subsequent flow reduction in the 5 km of the Tergi River and the Project’s impact on the nearby Kazbegi National Park. Environmental and Social Standards: As this Project will be co-financed with the EBRD, OPIC will apply EBRD policies in order to facilitate U.S.

    Key facts and figures relating to housing and urban development in Georgia Nino Gventsadze Head of spatial planning department Ministry of regional development and infrastructure of Georgia Housing in Georgia Current conditions Housing in Georgia is characterized with long and deep systematic crisis which are caused by the following reasons: non- existent policy, non-sufficient legislative base and non-adequate institutional set-up. Georgian government still doesn’t have a well-defined, clear policy in the field of Housing, also not a single office directly governs and works on Housing issues neither on legislation or enforcement level. Estimated future plan in Housing • To define short, medium and long term priorities Short term priority – should focus on how to fix homelessness, clearly define the terminology, exact identification of beneficiary groups and setting criteria for people who will receive the support, launching an institution, drafting legislation etc. Medium and long term - should focus on large number of people who will be able to afford the Housing (affordable Housing), provide an adequate Housing, improve policy making in regard of construction and urban development, solving demographic issues in the country etc. Improvements In 2018, Government of Georgia has taken a duty in implementing a “Housing policy documentation and strategic plan”, for that reason in 2019, April a special committee was established who will define a strategic plan. So far consultations are taking place. It is planned to make an amendments in legislation (In Georgian legislation there is the only law, which is dedicated to housing and needs a great deal of revise and improvement) The Ministry of Internally Displaced Persons from the Occupied Territories and Refugees of Georgia has realized several projects: • Ministry purchased 300 accommodations from the Chinese company “Hualing” • Throughout the country, ministry purchased several accommodations from developers, reconstructed, built new constructions etc.
