Umweltaspekte

The project is an investment loan, with small-sized investments on the local road and transport network. The investments would most likely fall outside both Annex I and II of the EU Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive, however this screening will be performed by the Competent Authority on a case-by-case basis. The applicability of EIA Directive 2011/92/EU, SEA directive 2001/42/EC, Habitats Directive 92/43/EEC and Birds Directive 79/409/EEC will be reviewed at appraisal, in particular for the extension of roads.

Auftragsvergabe

The Bank will require the promoter to ensure that contracts for the implementation of the project have been/shall be tendered in accordance with the relevant applicable EU procurement legislation (Dir. 2004/17/EC or 2004/18/EC and Dir. 2007/66/EC [amending Directives 1989/665/EEC and 1992/13/EEC]), with publication of tender notices in the EU Official Journal, as and where required.
