PROJECT COMPLETION REPORT PHILIPPINES RUkAL INFRASTRUCTURE PROJECT (CREDIT 790-PH) PREFACE This is a Project Completion Repo-t (PCR) on the Rural Infra- structure Project-I, for which an IDA credit in the amount of US$28.0 million to the government was approved on April 21, 1978. The credit was closed after two extensions totalling 2-1/2 years on June 30, 1986. The undisbursed balance of US$6.5 million was cancelled. The Project Completion Report (PCR) was prepared by the Department of Public Works and Highways of the Government and an Overview of the PCR was prepared by the Agriculture Operations Division, Country Department II, of the Asia Regional Office. The PCR Overview is based on a review of the Staff Appraisal and the President's Reports, the credit documents, other records on Bank files, and on discussions with Bank staff. This PCR was read by the Operations Evaluation Department (OED). The draft PCR was sent to the Borrower on May 31, 1989, for comments by June 20, 1989, but none were received. - ii - POJECT COWLETIOlrREOT RURALDPA3ThUCTURE PROJECT I (CREDIT790-PFi BASICDATA S1EET KEYPRMJECT DATA Appraisal Actual or Actual as X of Exectation Current Estimate Asereieal Estimate Projoect Coat (US$ million) 59.9 48.8 61.9 Credit Amount (USN million)/I 29.6 21.6 77.0 Dot.

The Philippine Rural Infrastructure Project-I was an effort by the Government of the Philippines to raise the socio-economic conditions of the rural population in six provinces by providing relatively small-scale infra- structure works. The project aimed to establish: (a) communal irrigation systems; (b) barangay (village) roads; (c) small ports; (d) barangay health stations; and (e) rural water supply facilities. Implementation 2. IDA Credit 790-PH for US$28 million became effective on July 20, 1978. This represented the entire foreign exchange component of the project, or 48 percent of the total cost of US$59 million. At appraisal, disburse- ments were expected to be completed by December 31, 1983, one year after the scheduled completion of all project works. However, the implemenLaLion of the project took about four years longer than predicted at the time of ap- praisal. Delays were caused by severe weather conditions, lengthy adminis- trative procedures, peace-and-order problems, shortages of materials, con- tract modificati ns necessitated by price increases, funding delays and contractor difficulties. 3. Difficulties that arose in the renegotiation of the fees of consultants involved in the detailed engineering phase of the barangay roads project delayed construction bidding for almost two years. Some of the sites proposed for roads or irrigation systems were found tc have low expected economic returns or to present technical difficulties, so they were abandoned in favor of more favorable locations.
