Project development objective and key performance indicators (see Annex 1): The project development objectives are to: (i) improve the water and sewerage services of Cartagena and the sanitary conditions of the city's poorest population, by expanding water and sewerage coverage, particularly in the city's poor neighborhoods, (ii) facilitate the environmental cleanup of water bodies surrounding the city (Cartagena Bay, Caribbean beaches and Cienaga de la Virgen lake) by providing adequate collection, treatment and disposal of the entire flow of the city's wastewater; and (iii) improve the sustainability of water and sewerage services in Cartagena by leveraging Bank support to shore up the private sector participation (PSP) model pioneered by ACUACAR, the city's mixed-capital water and sanitation utility, against the prospect of political interference. The key performance indicators for the project development objectives are: (a) "environmental indicators which measure sewerage coverage rate and volume of sewage treated; (b) ) "utility-based" indicators which measure the operational and financial efficiency of ACUACAR; and (c) financial indicators of the District of Cartagena. Details on the performance indicators are provided in Annex IA. B: Strategic Context 1. Sector-related Country Assistance Strategy (CAS) goal supported by the project (see Annex 1): CAS document number: 17107-CO Date of latest CAS discussion: November 6, 1997 Improve sustainable infrastructure services. The project would address part of the CAS agenda by focusing on: (i) improving infrastructure services and (ii) ensuring sustainable development. Colombia's poor and deteriorating infrastructure has long been identified as a critical constraint to faster economic growth. The new

  • Evolution of the Magdalena Deepwater Fan in a Tectonically Active Setting, Offshore Colombia, in C

(e-mail: [email protected]) Carlos Pirmez Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria Ltd., Plot 461, Constitution Avenue, Central Business District, Abuja, Nigeria (e-mail: [email protected]) ABSTracT The slope morphologies of the Magdalena deepwater fan exhibit a series of channel-levee complexes (CLCs), recording the evolution of the Magdalena delta. Detailed morphologi- cal analysis of the seafloor expression of the channels and their lateral relationship allows the reconstruction of the history of Pleistocene fan development. The Magdalena deepwater fan was deposited on the northern offshore Colombia accretionary wedge (Caribbean Sea), initiated during the late Miocene. Fan evolution is closely related to the Magdalena River delta migration and reflects control by tectonic processes occurring from Pliocene to present. Major delta shifts toward the southwest (Canal del Dique) and northeast (Cienaga de Santa Marta region) create a submarine fan that migrated with the river, becoming younger toward the southwest. The main fan was abandoned during the Holocene, focusing deposition on the Barranquilla region to the northeast with modern active sedimentation.

Urbanisation induces land use and land cover (LULC) changes in the city and its hinterland affecting the region’s climate and biodiversity. This paper aims to identify the trends of land use and land cover changes in the hinterland of Barranquilla corresponding to 13 municipalities in the north of the Department Atlántico. Landsat TM/ETM/OLI imagery from 1985 to 2017 was used to map and analyse the spatio-temporal development of land use and land cover changes.
