The development objective of the Additional Financing to the Second St. Lucia Disaster Management project is: (a) to further strengthen infrastructure against the impact of adverse natural events (hurricane, flooding, etc) through the implementation of physical mitigation measures; and (b) to strengthen the institutional management and response capacity of the cognizant ministries and agencies for disaster management through the provision of facilities, critical equipment, technical assistance and training. Its scope is limited to part through the scaling up of local risk management activities. The Government expects to scale up the following activities; (1) coastal protection works for Dennery Village, and (2) drainage, river walls and slope stabilization activities. Specific investments would include: a) creation of communal recreation areas as part of the consolidation of the beach reclamation activity at Dennery Village; b) extension of the ravine works at Dennery River and Trou A Leau to ensure greater stability as a result of recent river erosion; c) continuation of the small mitigation works, including small works in response to Hurricane Dean last year, and technical audit and d) project management.
