Congratulations…
3
USAID requirements are specific
USAID is required to
implement and monitor
IEE/EA conditions.
4
Implementation of IEE/EA conditions
5
The EMMP: a simple tool
& effectiveness
• who is
responsible for
See EMMP If well specified, excerpt
mitigation and template provided
(e.g., monitor weekly,
directly from the IEE; report in quarterly
monitoring in training If not well specified in reports and more
materials IEE, define in better frequently under
detail specified conditions)
6
The EMMP: a flexible tool
7
An effective EMMP is specific + realistic
Implementing these
conditions requires first
translating them into specific
mitigation actions
How do we do this?
8
EMMPs build on standards & best practice
11
How are EMMPs being required?
Three mechanisms:
1. Technical direction from COR or AOR
2. Required by contract/agreement More about this…
3. Required by MYAP guidance
(Title II only)
!
A key “lesson learned” from 40 years
of world-wide EIA experience …
implementation of environmental
conditions requires EMMPs that are
incorporated in workplans
and budgets
12
USAID requirements are specific: Part II
USAID is required to
write IEE/EA conditions
into awards.
13
Current best practice exceeds requirement
Environmental Compliance:
Language for Use in
Solicitations and Awards (ECL)
15
ECL promotes compliance + ESDM, and …
!
Missions and centrally funded programs are increasingly
using the ECL. Partners should expect that future
solicitations and awards will incorporate ECL-based
environmental compliance language.
16
How are EMMPs approved?

EMMP example: Diversion works at
Irrigation Rehabilitation the head of the system
PROJECT BRIEFING:
System reconstructed in
early 1980s
Abstracts water from high-
level river source and
irrigates 140 Ha (2 parcels;
valley & hillside lands)
18
EMMP example:
Irrigation Rehabilitation
Doing laundry in the canal
PROJECT BRIEFING:
Existing canals used for many
purposes: irrigation, bathing,
drinking water, laundry. . .
At end of the dry season, not
enough water for all plots
19
EMMP example:
Irrigation Rehabilitation
PROJECT BRIEFING:
Canals are hand made and
carry open water from
upstream
Roads are in poor condition—
difficult to get crops out
System maintenance
committee is not functional
Surrounding hillside is
completely deforested Allocation: land registration to
receive irrigation water was
!
done in early 1980s; no new
There are many baseline issues plots can be registered
that are not impacts of the (but theft from the system is
rehabilitation, but should be possible)
addressed in the EMMP

EMMP example: Excerpt of Impacts/Baseline
Irrigation Rehabilitation Issues and Mitigations
Water contamination from animals, Provide separate water points for construction washing 7
construction stations and animal watering
Social impact of inequality of water -Existing water committee reinforcement 8
use increasing # of people using the -Land Registration
water
Road Increased Deforestation Work with local officials to control deforestation 9
rehabilitation: (due to increased ease of access)
bridges & Increased sedimentation Sedimentation control (silt screen and hay bails- local weeds) 10
drainage works from enhanced road drainage

And finally. . .the EMMP itself
