Strengthening primary healthcare (PHC) –– both primary medical care and preventive health services — in Sri Lanka needs priority attention to tackle the rising costs of health care as well as to improve primary health services to lagging populations to meet the emerging public health challenges. The current health system under-invests in primary care, and limited government funds mostly cater to higher-level hospitals. The underinvestment at the primary care level has led to inadequate facilities and generally poor utilization of primary care level institutions and increased burden on higher-level health care facilities. As health care is costly, overuse of hospital services creates inefficiency in the use of government health expenditures. The cost pressures arising from increased non-communicable diseases and population ageing, however, have catalyzed the beginning of government reforms to rationalize health care utilization with increased focus and orientation towards PHC. However, the actual reform model is still evolving, and there is a need for external assistance to inform further and help operationalize PHC reform initiatives. ii. Given this background, the government has begun reforms to rationalize health care utilization with increased focus and orientation towards PHC to meet the emerging challenges in the health sector. The actual reform model is still evolving, and there is a need for external assistance to inform further and help operationalize PHC reform initiatives. To address this, the health sector enhancement project (HSEP), financed by ADB through a concessional loan of $37.5 million from ADB’s ordinary capital resources and a $12.5 million grant from ADB’s Special Funds resources, was approved on 23 October 2018. iii. The impact of the proposed investment in the project will lead to improved primary health care management in selected lagging regions for Sri Lanka’s health system to adapt to emerging challenges and deal with shifting disease burdens. Some of the key outputs of the project will include (i) development of primary medical care and preventive outreach infrastructure, (ii) improved service support in PHC facilities and increased service utilization (iii) enhanced capacity of preventive health care institutions for better public health and disease surveillance and (iv) policy reforms to facilitate PHC development. iv. In compliance with the ADB Safeguard Policy Framework, the sub-projects involving civil works included in the HSEP have been classified as environmental assessment Category B, which requires to conduct an Initial Environmental Examination (IEE). The Rapid Environmental Assessment (REA) carried out at the outset of the IEE study confirmed that the overall categorization of the project, which is Category B, based on the ADB SPS is still valid. This IEE report covers the physical interventions proposed by the HSEP is carried out as a requirement of the Safeguard Policy Framework of the ADB as outlined in the EARF prepared for the HSEP. This IEE covers the sub-project areas of 10 health

Figure 4.1: Arial view of Haputale town, Source: Author ■ Haputale town is formed along the hill ■ The town is a service center for tea plantation and Tourist Destination also ■ Town Centre emerged based on linear railway and curvilinear main road along the hill ■ The site is surrounded with passive vistas and active sites ■ It experiences climate and seasonal changes (Even within a day) ■ Shape, size, linkages & form of the town is not in a regular geometric form ■ The town is formed with slope and level differences It is a nondescript town with the main road descending into it from such a height that the arrival into the Main street is startling, especially from the front seat of a bus the street is there, but at the far end a steep drop into nothingness. Documentation of the town by Fernando states that “It appears to the ignorant visitor, that the bus will become airborne, at the end of the road” (Fernando, 1997). The Main Street has several trading shops, one from 21 each occupation. The railway station sits above the road, and Dambatenne Road leads into the hills. 4.1.1 Location of the case study Ml Haputak MC Study area 511 link Tt.
