    Public Disclosure Authorized IMPROVED RURAL CONNECTIVITY Public Disclosure Authorized PROJECT (IRCP) REHABILITATION OF PRIMARY FEEDER ROADS IN EASTERN PROVINCE Public Disclosure Authorized ENVIRONMENTAL PROJECT BRIEF September 2020 SUBMITTED BY EASTCONSULT/DASAN CONSULT - JV Public Disclosure Authorized Improved Rural Connectivity Project Environmental Project Brief for the Rehabilitation of Primary Feeder Roads in Eastern Province Improved Rural Connectivity Project (IRCP) Rehabilitation of Primary Feeder Roads in Eastern Province EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Government of the Republic Zambia (GRZ) is seeking to increase efficiency and effectiveness of the management and maintenance of the of the Primary Feeder Roads (PFR) network. This is further motivated by the recognition that the road network constitutes the single largest asset owned by the Government, and a less than optimal system of the management and maintenance of that asset generally results in huge losses for the national economy. In order to ensure management and maintenance of the PFR, the government is introducing the OPRC concept. The OPRC is a concept is a contracting approach in which the service provider is paid not for ‘inputs’ but rather for the results of the work executed under the contract i.e. the service provider’s performance under the contract. The initial phase of the project, supported by the World Bank will be implementing the Improved Rural Connectivity Project (IRCP) in some selected districts of Central, Eastern, Northern, Luapula, Southern and Muchinga Provinces. The project will be implemented in Eastern Province for a period of five (5) years from 2020 to 2025 using the Output and Performance Road Contract (OPRC) approach. GRZ thus intends to roll out the OPRC on the PFR Network covering a total of 14,333Kms country-wide.

SEE DETAILED UPDATES BELOW…. BOZ MAINTAINS POLICY RATE AT 15.5% AND PROJECTS 2016 GROWTH AT 3% The Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) of the Bank of Zambia has maintained the policy rate at 15.5%. the committee further eased commercial bank’s access to the central bank liquidity by removing some quantitative restrictions. This move has been supported by the downward trend in the annual rate of inflation and is forecast to decelerate further and end the year on a single-digit note. Meanwhile expectations are for a stable kwacha in the last quarter of 2016 with support from the recent significant increase in the international copper prices which would hopefully be sustained. According to the Bank of Zambia, economic activity has remained subdued since the last review in May 2016 arising from continued electricity shortages, cost and availability of credit as well as increased labour costs. Growth in 2016 has therefore been projected at 3 percent, a slight increase from the 2.9% recorded in 2015. ZNFU HOLD TALKS WITH BANK OF ZAMBIA OVER THE REVISION OF ITEM VALUE LIMITS ON CHEQUES AND ELECTRONIC FUND TRANSFERS ZNFU this morning held a meeting with Bank of Zambia (BOZ) Senior Management to discuss the practical difficulties associated with the impending implementation of the revised Item Value Limits on Cheques and 1 Electronic Funds Transfers (EFTs) by the central bank.

Briefly describe any significant highlights/accomplishments that took place during this reporting period. Please limit your comments to a maximum of 4 to 6 sentences. • Following the gaps that were identified during the routine TA visits to the districts in the first and second quarters, MCSP engaged the districts in the supported provinces in revising their 2018 annual workplans and budgets based on the data (scorecards) and service quality assessment (SQA) findings. Using these tools, MCSP influenced the inclusion of appropriate high-impact interventions (HIIs) to respond to identified gaps in the revised workplans and recommended the allocation of resources in an equitable manner. Consequently, Districts revised the 2018 CoC plans to incorporate these recommendations and identified interventions that would be included in the 2019 plans in all provinces. Additional details are provided in the provincial report annexes. • MCSP provided technical assistance (TA) during the provincial integrated management meeting (PIM) across all of the four target provinces. These meetings provided an opportunity for MCSP to identify areas requiring TA in a context-specific and responsive manner to the needs of each district. MCSP contributed to discussions in those meetings by making on-the-spot recommendations for improving specific indicators. For example, using a very brief role play, MCSP graphically showed districts a simple way of estimating the number of new FP acceptors.
