Conservative estimates show that it will take roughly three years for the completion of the dam that is 2019 which is beyond the closing date of the project. The remaining two sites will take much less, about two years (although the project team believes this can be done within a year – by mid- 2017 which leaves time for only one cropping cycle before the project closes). Bids for contracts for the construction of the irrigation schemes for the three sites are expected to close by mid-March 2016. The mission was informed that the Government has provided adequate funds (Kw36.5million out of the expected Kw45million) for the resettlement and compensation of persons affected by the construction of the dam and irrigation sites. Roads leading to the sites have been constructed with the construction of feeder roads outstanding. The installation and supply of power has also commenced. Draft Resettlement Action Plans (RAPs) for the three sites have been completed and submitted to Zambia Environmental Management Agency (ZEMA) for clearance. Construction of housing for affected people has commenced prior to clearance by the Bank of the RAP which is in contravention of the Financial Agreement (FA). In consultations with the World Bank, the project is supplying and installing irrigation and farm equipment to 5 public institutions, namely: the Police, the Zambia National Service, the Prisons, Zambia Centre of Horticulture Training and the Zambia College of Agriculture with funding from the Investment Support Fund (ISF). The project submitted procurement plans and annual work plans and budgets to the WB for clearance on January 4, 2016 and comments submitted by the Bank to the client on January 5, 2016. The draft annual work plan will have to be revised to reflect the initial comments sent by the WB on January 5, 2016 as well as the recommendations contained in this aide memoire. In spite of progress made to date and enumerated above, considerable number of activities remain to be completed. These include: (i) construction of the Mwomboshi dam and irrigation scheme; (ii) construction of Lusitu and Musakashi irrigation schemes; (iii) engagement of supervising consultants for (i) and (ii); (iv) clearance of the RAPs and ESIAs by the World Bank; (v) resettlement and compensation of affected persons at the sites; (vi) finalization of the constitution for the Community Land Trust (CLTs) (vii) establishment of the CLTs and land consolidation; (viii) land allocation; (ix) obtaining water rights; (x) finalization of the bidding documents and engagement of an operator for the schemes; ( (xi ) determination of resources/equipment required by small scale producers under the ISF. Based on the assessment of activities completed to date and the outstanding ones in relation to the key performance indicators, implementation performance, is rated Unsatisfactory at mid-term. Key decisions that require immediate action are: 1. As per the Financing Agreement, the Annual work program and budget needs to be revised taking into account the comments provided by the World Bank on January 5, 2016, to the initial draft and recommendations of the mission contained in the Aide Memoire. The revised documents would then be resubmitted to the World Bank for clearance to expedite project implementation. 2. The project is currently deemed as non-compliant with Safeguards provisions of the Financing Agreement (Schedule 2D.2). As per the Financing Agreement, a revised Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) and an Environment and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) and will have to be submitted to the Bank for clearance and disclosed at the info shop before commencement of civil works. 3. An early selection of an operator for the operation and maintenance of the irrigation schemes be carried out before commencement of civil works. As the implementation of an innovative operation and maintenance model for large scale irrigation schemes is a central driver of the overall project design. 4. We recommend that project management accelerate the execution of the provisions of the Financing Agreements and follow up on ZEMA for speedy clearance of the RAPs and ESIA. 3/28/2016 Page 2 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Irrigation Development and Support Project (P102459) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance  --  High  High Macroeconomic  --  Substantial  Moderate Sector Strategies and Policies  --  Moderate  Moderate Technical Design of Project or Program  --  High  High Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Sustainability  --  Substantial  Substantial Fiduciary  --  Substantial  Substantial Environment and Social  --  High  High Stakeholders  --  Substantial  Substantial Other  --  --  -- Overall  --  High  High Results Project Development Objective Indicators PHINDPDOTBL  Value of diverse agricultural products marketed (K/year) in target sites (Amount(USD), Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 20.00 0.00 195.00 Date 15-Mar-2011 20-Mar-2015 29-Jan-2016 15-Dec-2018 3/28/2016 Page 3 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Irrigation Development and Support Project (P102459) Comments The irrigation schemes are not yet in place and therefore no crop has been planted.
