PCSC: SIMULATION SCENARIOS OF INVESTMENT EXECUTION ASSUMPTIONS FOR 2005-07 A.l Each sector envelope was analyzed by the respective sector specialists since no information on the execution assumptions was provided by the authorities. ' Historical trends were considered, as well as current implementation capacity and the specific factors affecting project types. A.2 Water Sector disbursement rates during the three-year period are expected to be 12, 25, and 32 percent, respectively. This yields a cumulative execution rate of 21 percent, lower than the sector's historical average2 of 52 percent. Since most activities are expected to start in 2006, almost no disbursements were expected in 2005, when the bids for major projects would be launched or evaluated. A disconnect is evident between the historically low implementation capacity and the high pressure that the government is exerting for quick performance. A.3 Transport and Public Works projects were broken down by subsector and have the following execution assumptions covering the three-year period: Transporf (14, 0, and 25 percent). The large cable project would only start in 2007 and span four years. Other smaller physical works projects would reach a cumulative 70-80 percent completion rate by 2009. Roads (5, 9, and 14 percent). Segments of the East-West Expressway project already under construction would be completed by 2008, and new segments would be half-way completed a year later, leading to a cumulative execution rate of 50 percent by 2009. Road maintenance would be 100 percent completed during the program (that is, 20 percent per year). Other works would be approximately 80 percent completed, in line with historical execution rates. The execution assumption
