We really appreciate for the useful and timely comme nts forwarded by the Africa Safeguards Unit which will help us in the finaliza' ion of the EA reports for disclosure as planned. It should be recalled that we have already publicised the findings of the EA report through different local ne /vspapers. We have kept each Administrative Councils influenced by the proje t roads fully informed. We will again disclose the revised version including i route map and a clear environmental impact management plan that incorpor ites your comments. As you are well aware these project roads have passed through different phases of studies such as detailed feasibility, design, environmnental impact assessment, design review. and recently the Resettlement Action 'lan (RAP) preparation. In all these stages, environmental issues are carefully e nd adequately treated. All important aspects have been incorporated into the de sign review and RAP. During construction, we will still be committed to IcDk closely and advise the construction team on what further protection is called for. Particularly if there 13/02 03 TU 19:41 FAX 514868 ERA GM OFUCE _ _ -u are sensitive habitats or species that may require the realignment of the road or other construction mitigation measures. We, therefore, hereby express our commitment to implementing the results of EA and submit all associated reports to your good cfFice for final review and clearance for disclosure. Please note that the locat on map, revised pages of the EA report and a brief text are attached to his letter. The detailed Resettlement Action Plan and the revised full eport incorporating your comments will be emailed shortly. Sincerely yours, eM~OA1qA? TOADS WTRO'R RSDPSP II Roads: Incorporation of Bank Recommended Actions for Disclosure of the Environmental Impact Assessment Final Report 1. BACKGROUND Under the Road Sector Development Program Support Project Phase II, Africon of South Africa was appointed by the Ethiopian Roads Authority to undertake Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) studies for seven roads proposed for upgrading and rehabilitation by the World Bank. The Consultant had identified several macro & micro impacts and the corresponding mitigation measures. The road projects include: (1) Nekempte-Assosa (347 km), (2) Nazareth- Dodola/Shashamane-Goba (397 km), (3) Woreta - Woldiya (300 km), (4) Adigrat-Adi Abun (108 km), (5) Dera-Mechara (240 km), (6) Gondar-Mereb River (424 km), and (7) Dembi-Gambella (237 km). After the detailed feasibility study only the first 127 km of the Nekempte-Assosa (Nekempte- Mekenajo section), the whole routes of Woreta-Woldiya, Nazareth-Goba and Dera-Mechara and a section of Gondar-Mereb River (Shire-Adwa-83 km) became feasible whilst the Dembi-Gambella road exhibited a lower rate of return. As a result the fourth road project is changed to Adigrat-Shire, taking the Shire-Adwa (83 km) section that was originally studied under the Gondar-Mereb River road project. Following the feasibility and EIA studies, the first five economically feasible road projects were selected for which the design review was undertaken by different consultants with close supervision of the Ethiopian Roads Authority and the Bank's project team. The aim of the design review assessment was to incorporate the findings of ETA and feasibility study consultants. The Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) study is currently underway by two local consultants namely Abay Engineering and PANAF Consult plc and the draft final report has recently been submitted to the Bank for review and comment. Resettlement and land acquisition is being addressed as part of this study, which includes the location of property likely to be affected, compensation/mitigation measures and the associated costs. Due to the reduced IDA allocation to a possible Grant Funding of US 120 million, it is further proposed to include only sections of the first five road projects under APL 1 program. 1 The Relationship between EA, Proposed RSDPSP II and APL 1 Projects are shown as follows (the difference in length between EIA and Feasibility consultants are observed).

ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR RSDP II ROAD PROJECTS The preparation of the Environtnental Management Plan (EMP) is based on the identified environmental and social impact due to the project roads. The EMP is a flexible program that can reasonably be adapted as unanticipated situations emerge during design, construction or operation phase of the projects. During the implementation of the EMP, several parties will be involved to ensure its success each of them playing their part either solely or in conjunction with others as the case may be. The following table shows stakeholders that are responsible for each environmental or social impact. The impacts are classified as positive and negative macro impacts. 2 Positive Macro Environmental Impacts and Responsibility for Implementation of Mlitigation Measures No. Positive Macro Responsibilit for Implementation of Mitigation Measures Environmental Impacts Consultant Contractor Client Others No Action required 1 Increased accessibility and trafficability.

  • Prioritization of Shelter/NFI Needs
    Prioritization of Shelter/NFI needs Date: 31st May 2018 Shelter and NFI Needs As of 18 May 2018, the overall number of displaced people is 345,000 households. This figure is based on DTM round 10, partner’s assessments, government requests, as well as the total of HH supported since July 2017. The S/NFI updated its prioritisation in early May and SNFI Cluster partners agreed on several criteria to guide prioritisation which include: - 1) type of emergency, 2) duration of displacement, and 3) sub-standard shelter conditions including IDPS hosted in collective centres and open-air sites and 4) % of vulnerable HH at IDP sites. Thresholds for the criteria were also agreed and in the subsequent analysis the cluster identified 193 IDP hosting woredas mostly in Oromia and Somali regions, as well as Tigray, Gambella and Addis Ababa municipality. A total of 261,830 HH are in need of urgent shelter and NFI assistance. At present the Cluster has a total of 57,000 kits in stocks and pipeline. The Cluster requires urgent funding to address the needs of 204,830 HHs that are living in desperate displacement conditions across the country. This caseload is predicted to increase as the flooding continues in the coming months. Shelter and NFI Priority Activities In terms of priority activities, the SNFI Cluster is in need of ES/NFI support for 140,259 HH displaced mainly due to flood and conflict under Pillar 2, primarily in Oromia and Somali Regions. In addition, the Shelter and NFI Cluster requires immediate funding for recovery activities to support 14,000 HH (8,000 rebuild and 6,000 repair) with transitional shelter support and shelter repair activities under Pillar 3.

Box: 307 Jimma, Ethiopia Abstract African Animal Trypanosomosis is one of the major impediments to livestock development and agricultural production in Ethiopia, which negatively affect the overall development in agriculture in general, and to food self- reliance efforts in particular. Currently, about 180,000 to 200,000km 2 of fertile arable land of west and southwest of the country is underutilized. Darimu district is one of the areas with such problems. Therefore, a cross-sectional study was conducted with the objectives of assessing the prevalence of Bovine Trypanosomosis and determines spatial distribution and apparent density of tsetse and other biting flies in the study area. In current study, a total of 650 blood samples were collected from randomly selected animals and subjected to Buffy coat parasitological laboratory technique and positive samples were subjected to thin blood smear followed by Giemsa staining. Out of the total blood sampled, 7.1% tested positive for trypanosomosis. Out of positive cases, Trypanosoma congolense (82.61%) was the dominant trypanosome species followed by mixed infection ( Trypanosoma congolense and Trypanosoma vivax ) (8.67%).

    Il Quaternario Italian Journal of Quaternary Sciences 15(2), 2002, 275-278 REPORT ON “GLACIAL” FORMS OBSERVED ON AMBA ARADAM MOUNTAIN (NORTHERN ETHIOPIA) Mario Panizza Dipartimento di Scienze della Terra – Università di Modena e Reggio Emilia (Italy) ABSTRACT Some geomorphologic characteristics observed on Amba Aradam Mountain (Tigray region, northern Ethiopia) at altitudes of about 2500 to 2780 m a.s.l. and latitude of about 13°30’ N, are described. These features might be ascribed to glacial modeling: cirques, roches moutonnées, glacial shoulders, moraine deposits and moraine arc and palustrine deposit due to moraine barrage. This framework is strongly in contrast with the fact that in Ethiopia the presence of glacial cirques and moraines was reported only in mountain areas at altitudes exceeding 4000 m a.s.l. An alternative assumption is that all these features might constitute a very singular case of “geo- morphologic convergence”, that is, landforms that have the same shape and appearance but different genesis. RIASSUNTO Relazione su forme “glaciali” osservate sul Monte Amba Aradam (Etiopia settentrionale). Vengono segnalate alcune caratteristiche geo- morfologiche sul Monte Amba Aradam (regione del Tigrai, nord Ethiopia) a quote fra circa 2500 e 2780 m .s.l.m. ed a una latitudine di circa 30°30’ N, che potrebbero far pensare a un modellamento glaciale: circhi, rocce montonate, spalle glaciali, depositi e arco moreni- ci, deposito palustre di sbarramento morenico. Questo quadro risulta in contrasto col fatto che in Ethiopia la presenza di circhi e more- ne glaciali sono state segnalati soltanto a quote superiori ai 4000 m s.l.m.

The objective of this paper is to analyze the marketed surplus of wheat by smallholders farmers and to identify its underlying determinants. Two- stage sampling technique was used and a total of 123 smallholder farmers from five kebeles were randomly and proportionately sampled to collect both secondary and primary sources. The model results showed that six explanatory variables significantly affected the volume of wheat marketed by smallholder wheat producers. Family size, access to credit, off- farm income and livestock holding were negatively and significantly affecting supply.
