SCOPE OF THE ADDITIONAL FINANCING
19. The scope of the proposed AF constitutes a scale up of the PP’s activities which are:
a) Bridges, road protection, and river bank protection under Component 2 – Rural Road Connectivity:
i. Reconstruction of about 64 bridges that are damaged to the point of needing replacement,
or where the original bridge is no longer in use due to damage or total collapse;
ii. Road protection works to reduce the risk of landslides in about 15 selected critical slopes to
protect and improve connectivity; and
iii. River bank protection in about 05 critical stretches to reduce the risk of river bank erosion
and resulting loss of connectivity.
b) Training facility for SDRF under Component 3 – Technical Assistance and Capacity Building for
Disaster Risk Management: To finance a permanent physical training facility that will help impart
specialized trainings to SDRF personnel as well as police, firemen, and local communities to strengthen
the State’s disaster response capacity to respond to disasters, most of which are linked to climate
change. Specialized training will focus on the needs of the State’s priorities: collapsed structures,
medical first response, mountaineering and high altitude, and water search and rescue.
c) Component 5 – Implementation Support.
d) Component 6 – Contingent Emergency Response Component. |
