The Rural Roads Improvement Project (RRIP) will be implemented for a period of 5 years, from 2011 and will be completed in 2015. The Project has five (5) key components, namely: (i) civil works for improvement of 19 roads (505.4 km); (ii) consulting services for detailed design and implementation supervision; (iii) road asset management component, dealing with asset management capabilities of the MRD; (iv) road safety and safeguards; (v) climate change, adaptation component which details with climate change and emergency management activities. 2. The road will provide an all-year road access from provincial towns and agricultural areas, and will provide greater accessibility to basic facilities and services. It will also strengthen the capacity of the MRD to plan, manage and monitor road maintenance operations and implementing the loan covenants and other conditions in the loan package including the establishment of a Social and Environmental Office (SEO) in MRD, and increasing linkages and involving the Provincial Department Rural Development (PDRD) in project implementation and monitoring. 3. The Project will upgrade targeted existing unpaved rural roads in seven provinces to a paved road standard with double bituminous surface treatment (DBST) without widening or improving alignment. Project will also improve drainage structures such as box culvert and pipe culverts, but reconstruction of bridge is limited to existing wooden bridges. The Project is classified as environment category B and an initial environmental examination (lEE) was conducted as part of project preparation in accordance with ADB Safeguard Policy Statement of 2009 (ADB SPS). 4. The civil works comprise the improvement of 19 existing earth or gravel surfaced roads in seven provinces. The project is covered by ADB Loan-2670-CAM (Contract CW-B and Contract CW-C) in four provinces (Kampong Speu, Kampong Chhnang, Pursat and Battambang) while the rural roads in three provinces (Kampong Cham, Kampong Thom and Siem Reap) are covered by loans from KEXIM bank of the Government of Korea (Contract CW-A). 5. The International Environmental Specialist was mobilized for semi-annual environment monitoring of the civil works between July 2nd and July 16th 2012. They reviewed the activities of the contractors in the project sites in order to ensure compliance with ADB’s Social Safeguard Policy Statement 2009. He was accompanied by the National Environmental Specialist, SEO and PDRD staff of MRD and the DDIS consultants and the contractor’s representatives. 6. The essence of monitoring is to ensure compliance with environmental legislation. The contractors have a duty to comply with the relevant legislation. The DDIS consultant must check their activities and report to MRD. In the event of noncompliance with EMP, MRD can instruct the contractor to comply. Semi-Annual Environment Monitoring Report i Korea Consultants International Rural Roads Improvement Project in association with Filipinas Dravo Corp ADB Loan No. 2670-CAM (SF) 7. The CEMP is monitored and enforced by the Supervision Consultants inspectors who use Checklists included in the EMP. By using the checklists consistency is maintained between the various packages. The checklists are compiled every month and the checklists for Contract Packages CW-A, B and C for February to June were sighted and reviewed by the International Environmental Specialist. The checklists had been filled in correctly and reporting was thorough. No environmental issues were identified. Dust from roads was commented upon but was not a significant issue and did not require remedial works at the time of the inspection. No complaints from villagers were reported. 8. In order to confirm the environmental conditions of the project roads, several project roads were selected as being typical and site surveys carried out. This was performed by the International Environmental Specialist, the National Environmental Specialist, staff from MRD SEO (Social and Environmental Office) and accompanied by staff of PDRD. 9. Environment parameters were checked and reviewed by each contract packages. All three civil works contract packages have been evaluated satisfactory and only minor issues were found, remedial action of which could be undertaken by the contractors and subsequently be followed up by the DDIS consultants and SEO. 10. Through the semi-annual environment monitoring on the ongoing civil works sites of the Project by the international environment specialist and SEO of MRD, at the present time there are no adverse environmental issues associated with the project implementation.

  • Fish Price Monitoring in Kandal, Prey Veng and Takeo Provinces of Cambodia
    Fish Price Monitoring in Kandal, Prey Veng and Takeo Provinces of Cambodia by 1 1 2 Ker Naret , Sem Viryak and Don Griffiths 1. Fishery Officer, Department of Fisheries, and Counterpart of the MRC/DoF/Danida Fisheries Project in Cambodia 2. Chief Technical Advisor, MRC - Rural Extension for Aquaculture Development Project ABSTRACT Fish marketing data are vital for any aquaculture development project because it influences potential supply, demand and distribution channels of fish. The Rural Extension for Aquaculture Development (READ) Cambodian Sub-Component monitored fish prices eight times per month throughout 1999, in representative markets in Kandal, Prey Veng and Takeo provinces in Cambodia. A total of 90 fish dealers (30 per province) were also interviewed. Results showed that River Catfish (Pangasianodon hypophthalmus), Snakeheads (Channa spp.) and Walking Catfish (Clarias spp.) were the major cultured fish by weight in all markets on sampling days. The quantities of cultured fish traded in Prey Veng markets was less than for Kandal and Takeo markets. In Kandal 38% of fish traded was cultured. Snakeheads (Channa spp.), Goonch (Bagarius bagarius), Climbing Perch (Anabas testudineus), Catfish (Mystus spp. and Clarias spp.), Silver Barb (Barbodes gonionotus) and Riel (Henicorhynchus spp.) were the major wild fish species found in each province. Wild fish prices were generally highest from June to August and lowest from December to February. Mackerel (Scomber spp.) was the only marine fish species in the markets of each province. There were greater quantities of Mackerel in Kandal and Takeo than in Prey Veng province, and Mackerel was available year round in Kandal market. The main fish supply channels were through Saang district in Kandal province; Angkor Borei, Bourei Cholsar and Kaoh Andaet districts in Takeo province, and Kampong Leav district in Prey Veng province.
