Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective?

Although three of the four procurement processes of the main activities of Component 1 have started, there has been very little progress since the last ISR. The proposals for the Hydrological Plan of the Basin are being evaluated. The contract for an Environmental and Wetlands Management Plan has not yet been awarded. The bidding documents for the hydromet systems have not yet been published, and the strengthening of the water governance system in the Salado basin has been postponed. On component 2, the contract for the river works, signed in December 2018 and the one for the works supervision in February 2019 are being implemented. Dredging in three out of four lots is being executed although at a slower pace than originally planned. 12/26/2019 Page 1 of 6 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Salado Integrated River Basin Management Support Project (P161798) The Bank will held a meeting with the new Project Implementation Unit in the upcoming month, to discuss an Action Plan to speed up project implementation.
