PROJECT IMPLEMENTATION AND OPERATION
from MAPPING PATHWAYS: Towards a Holistic Model for Inclusive and Resilient Linear Infrastructure
by WWF-Myanmar
Key provision Commentary
Purpose:
The regulations should ensure that all commitments from the upstream planning and project level assessment and approvals are translated into practice during the project implementation.
Provisions:
Projects should be required to establish a community consultative committee for the life of the project (if not already established before the commencement of the EIA process).
Projects should adopt an operational grievance mechanism (OGM) for the project during the construction and operations phases. The OGM should be in line with best practice and provide clear mechanism for resolving disputes in a simple, quick and transparent manner.
The draft standard project approval conditions (see Annex 7) and checklist for preparing an environmental management plan (EMP) ( see Annex 8) include guidance for establishing these mechanisms.
