The Project still shows low disbursement rates as of August 2021, largely due to the recently approved Additional Financing (US$150 million) and the fact that a major portion of Bank funding is earmarked towards the electro-mechanical works, planned to be implemented only starting in late 2021. As works have started again following the recruitment of a new Supervising Engineer, progress is expected over the next six months. Project implementation is progressing and is showing the following results: (i) RAP1 and RAP2A: Progress continues on the remedial action plan for RAP1 (resettlement at the dam site). Procurement for the recruitment of a Bank-funded International RAP2A implementation support firm is moving forward. (ii) Progress made on dam civil works (Lot 1): The official launch of works at the dam site (not financed by the World Bank) occurred in March 2019. Progress on construction of the dam has been relatively slow over the past year (17 percent to date), largely because of difficult security conditions at the dam site and slowdowns linked to the COVID-19 pandemic. A new Supervising Engineer was recruited in February 2021 and civil works on the dam have resumed. (iii) Hydropower plant equipment procurement (Lot 2): Procurement is completed with contract signing on December 9, 2020.
