Ragasa, Catherine | Williams, Melissa | Pehu, Eija
The Honduras water and sanitation sector modernization project aims to improve the sustainability, efficiency, and reliability of Honduras's water supply and sanitation services in the participating municipalities through implementing the strategic plan to modernize the sector. No large-scale, significant and/or irreversible impacts are foreseen from this project. In any case, the key safeguard issues and impacts associated with this project are: noise, dust, proper disposal of construction waste, erosion control, protection of spring catchments, etc., produced during construction and installation of pipes will be addressed by appropriate guidelines that will be incorporated into the technical specifications governing the work of construction contractors. There is no expectation that cultural property would be found in the project area. Nevertheless, because of the nature of the works envisioned, the environmental assessment sets forth chance find or equivalent procedures in case such property is encountered. PROMOSAS will not finance any subprojects involving involuntary resettlement or dams and so these safeguards are not triggered.
