PART II: PROJECT JUSTIFICATION 8 Project Overview A.1. Project Description. Briefly describe the project, including ; 1) the global environmental problems, root causes and barriers that need to be addressed; 2) the baseline scenario and any associated baseline projects, 3) the proposed alternative scenario, with a brief description of expected outcomes and components of the project, 4) incremental cost reasoning and expected contributions from the baseline , the GEFTF, LDCF/SCCF and co-financing; 5) global environmental benefits (GEFTF, NPIF) and adaptation benefits (LDCF/SCCF); 6) innovativeness, sustainability and potential for scaling up Baseline scenario and projects The transport sector is the third-largest energy consumer in Morocco, after the residential sector and industry. The sector depends almost exclusively on petroleum products (99%) which must be fully imported and place a heavy burden on the country’s trade balance: the Ministry of Mines, Energy, Water 6 On an exceptional basis, PPG amount may differ upon detailed discussion and justification with the GEFSEC. 7 PPG fee percentage follows the percentage of the GEF Project Grant amount requested. 8 Part II should not be longer than 5 pages. 4 GEF-5 PIF Template-December 27, 2012 and Environment estimates that fuel imports for the transport sector alone account for 8% of Morocco’s total imports. Despite having the highest fuel prices in the region (due to a concerted Government effort to reduce fuel subsidies), the vehicle fleet is growing rapidly – by 6% per year between 2002-2010 – with considerable potential for future growth. Commercial vehicles account for 27% of the total fleet, of which approximately 70,000 are freight vehicles. The road freight sector is fragmented and is characterized by old vehicles (28% are over 15 years old) that are often poorly maintained, over-loaded and badly driven. Logistics costs are estimated by the Government to be as high as 20% of domestic value-added, imposing a burden on firms and consumers and contributing an estimated 1.7 million tCO 2/year of greenhouse gas emissions. In an effort to improve the competitiveness of the logistics sector by reorganizing and optimizing the flow of goods, the Ministry of Equipment and Transportation has recently developed a National Logistics Strategy. The Strategy outlines three specific objectives to be achieved by 2015: reducing the burden of logistics costs in relation to GDP from 20% to 15%,

The appearance of the COVID-19 virus has a huge impact on the economy, where many factories and logistics flows are affected. With global supply chains severely disrupted, production and consumption centers around the world are beginning to be affected by the situation. our study tried to measure the impact of this pandemic on the containers transport in Morocco, our work targeted the Tanger Med port due to its geographic position as the most important link between Africa and Europe, Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) cointegration technique was applied, this model integrates the term of lag and difference in the modeling of linear series. To verify the existence of long-term relationships, F-bond test was applied. The model was estimated on short and long term. the results were significant and has shown that the activity within Tanger Med port, experienced a shock during the pandemic period. 1 Introduction The United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) also called for the maintenance Indispensable vector of globalization through which more and protection of maritime traffic and logistics chains, than 80% of the flows of raw materials and goods pass, including traffic to the hinterland, "whose role is vital for maritime transport is suffering from the pandemic due to people in these times of global crisis”.

UFR “Economic, Mathematical and social Sciences,” - France All Founding members of SRECELD126 Abstract Dealing with sustainable transport has allowed researchers and practitioners to suggest several solutions (decoupling, inter-modality…) capable of providing, at least, part of the answers to the negative externalities caused by road haulage. Traffic congestion, sound nuisance, pollution, insecurity… are so many effects produced by the overuse of heavy goods vehicles. As regards sustainable development, Morocco has demonstrated its firm commitment to include this variable, in order to ensure an economic growth less subject to climatic vagaries, cope with energy crises and reduce the social costs. 126 Studies and Research Centre in Logistics and Development (SRECELD) 380 European Scientific Journal October 2015 edition vol.11, No.29 ISSN: 1857 – 7881 (Print) e - ISSN 1857- 7431 Thus, it was not until through the logistical competitiveness strategy in Morocco (program contract 2010-2015) that clear objectives and action plan related to investing and trading, as part of sustainable transport, have been set.

The total cost may include, for example, benefits of pre- and post-routing such as land transport (road and / or rail), the remuneration of armaments, insurance, freight forwarders, brokers and the cost ... port transit. The cost of the port means, all costs resulting from the provision of ships and goods through the port authority (fixed costs), tools (-variables rent) and services (variables - wages and fees) port; they are supported directly by the port, and then passed on to users through tariffs. The article proposes a literature review on the different types of logistics costs in a port, a comparative analysis of the traffic volume during a period in the old port city of Tangier and the new Tanger Med Port and finally an analysis of the existing situation, following which delays the grain have been identified at the General Cargo Terminal with a proposal as an investment project infrastructure to maximize storage spaces dedicated to grain.

  • United States Department of Agriculture LIST of INTERCEPTED
    Bur.Ent. & P. Q. Issued May 1939 United States Department of Agriculture BUREAU OF ENTOMOLOGY AND PLANT QUARANTINE SERVICE AND REGULATORY ANNOUNCEMENTS LIST OF INTERCEPTED PLANT PESTS, 1937 (List of Pests Recorded During the Period July 1, 1936, to June 30, 1937, In- clusive, as Intercepted in, on, or with Plants and Plant Products Entering United States Territory.) INTRODUCTION The period covered by this report represents the twenty-fourth year for which lists of intercepted plant pests have been issued. While the earlier reports gave the details regarding practically all organisms found on the plant material in- spected, the present paper omits many organisms entirely and summarizes the interceptions of many common or incompletely determined pests in short para- graphs, hence the detailed table contains only a fraction of the total findings. This report is based on interceptions for which determinations were received and indexed during the fiscal year. Determinations for collections made late in the year are often received after the close of the year and are included with those of the following year. The summarized records cover pests intercepted in, on, or with plants and plant products (1) imported, (2) offered for but refused entry, (3) held as ships' stores, etc., and hence not imported through customs, (4) offered for entry for immediate export or for immediate transportation and exportation in bond, and (5) in domestic shipments reaching the mainland from Hawaii and Puerto Rico. A cross-indexed file covering the more important and interesting interceptions is maintained in Washington and serves as the basis for this list.
