A final payment from ECHO remains pending but is expected shortly, and this will cover the small deficit currently reflected in the attached final financial report. Operational Developments: Ethiopia lies in the African Meningitis Belt which extends from the Red Sea in the east to the Atlantic ocean in the west. It has suffered major epidemics of meningococcal meningitis, a bacteria disease of the central nervous system, in 1981 when there were 50,000 cases and nearly a thousand deaths and in 1989 when there 46,000 cases and 1,700 deaths. Between June and August in 2000, there was an outbreak in Addis Ababa with over 850 cases and 33 deaths. Major epidemics usually occur every 8 to 12 years. This epidemic started in October 2000 in Quarit Woreda in West Gojam in Amhara Region and over a period of several months spread throughout the country. It reached its peak in week 22 of the epidemic (5-11 March 2001) when 724 cases were reported although a decrease in the number of cases week on week was reversed in week 29 (23-29 April 2001) when a lower peak was reached. -

East African Journal of Sciences (2019) Volume 13 (2) 185-194 Chemical Composition, Mineral Profile and Sensory Properties of Traditional Cheese Varieties in selected areas of Eastern Gojjam, Ethiopia Mitiku Eshetu1* and Aleme Asresie2 1School of Animal and Range Sciences, Haramaya University, P.O. Box 138, Dire Dawa, Ethiopia 2Department of Animal Production and Technology, Adigrat University, Adigrat, Ethiopia Abstract: This study was conducted to evaluate the chemical composition, mineral profile and sensory properties of Metata, Ayib and Hazo traditional cheese varieties in selected areas of Eastern Gojjam. The chemical composition and mineral content of the cheese varieties were analyzed following standard procedures. Sensory analysis was also conducted by consumer panelists to assess taste, aroma, color, texture and overall acceptability of these traditional cheese varieties. Metata cheese samples had significantly (P<0.05) lower moisture content and higher titratable acidity than Ayib and Hazo cheese samples. The protein, ash, fat contents of Metata cheese samples were significantly (P<0.05) higher than Ayib and Hazo cheese samples. Moreover, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, sodium and potassium contents of Metata cheese samples were significantly (P<0.05) higher than that of Ayib and Hazo cheese samples. Metata cheese samples had also the highest consumer acceptability scores compared to Ayib and Hazo cheese samples. In general, the results of this work showed that Metata cheese has higher nutritional value and overall sensory acceptability. -

Summary of Preparatory Study Date: February, 2011 1. Title of the Cooperation Project, Relevant Project Report Project for the Rehabilitation of the Trunk Road, Phase IV (Dejen – Debre Markos Section) 2. Categorization and Reasons Category B Major reasons for categorization are as follows: - The project is to improve the current condition of the road with paving, not new construction. - Social and natural adverse impacts will be limited or minimized by the implementation of planned mitigation measures especially if there are any protected areas or considerable habitats such as national parks or conservation areas within close proximity to the project area. - With regard to the social impacts, although some resettlements are caused, the degree of the impact is not significant and minimized by appropriate implementation of the land acquisition and resettlement action plan. - The project has been categorized as “Schedule-2 Project” which does not require the Full scale EIA on the Ethiopian EIA Law (Environmental Impact Assessment Guideline Document (2000/ Environmental Protection Authority)). It means that the project does not have significant impacts on the social and natural areas. 3. Outline of the Project (Objectives, Justification, Activites, Location, Scale, etcetera) Ninety five percent (95%) of the international cargo transportation and interurban transportation in Ethiopia is borne by road traffic. The improvement of low density of the paved road conditions (paved road length 42,429 km compared to 1,100,000 square km of land area) and the road condition (51% of the total road length is in poor condition) is a critical issue for Ethiopia. To improve this situation, Ethiopian Roads Authority (ERA) has endeavoured to develop the road network, especially the construction of the arterial roads based on the Road Sector Development Program (RSDP) from 1997 under the backing of foreign countries and international organizations.
