Key Findings
Full Description

The sheet identifies the environmental and social impacts of works on the Guichard rural drinking-water system (SAEP) in the Nord-Ouest and proposes mitigation measures, as the World Bank's operational policy on environmental assessment (OP 4.01) and Haiti's 2005 framework environmental decree require. It sits in DINEPA's EPARD safeguards set, one sheet for each rural system in the program.

The works are protection of the intake and its immediate perimeter with a cyclone fence, protection of the supply line, reinforcement of ravine crossings and a new 2,500 m line of 63 mm HDPE pipe. No new construction or land donation is involved. Landscaping is included in the project activities and has no separate line in the cost table. The World Bank specialists gave their non-objection on March 29, 2019.
