Tender Details

CONSULTING SERVICES Open Stock Holding Power Company "Barki Tojik" hasreceived grant from the International Development for the Association for thepreparation grant for Advisory support for the regional tradeinitiative project (TF 016252), and intends to apply part of theproceeds of this financing to the providing ESIA and EMP for the project CASA-1000 with a Consulting firm, which shall provide theconsulting services for:Environmental Impact Assessment and Environmental Management Plan.

The original CASA-1000 project-wide Environmentaland Social Assessment (ESIA) based on the prefeasibility study, summarizing potential impacts from construction of transmissionlines (TL) within a 2 kilometer wide corridor has been prepared, disclosed and consulted in all participating countries.

Thedetailed design, including final routing/alignment of TL within this corridor, the exact location of DC-AC converter stations andtower footings, etc. will be defined later by the engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) contractors, following detailedroute surveys and considering the site-specific environmental and social aspects.

The environment and social assessment workconducted during the Feasibility Study screened and selected a corridor within which the TL will be constructed.

The subsequentESIA supplemented this work by the inclusion of country-specific assessment work that sought to identify if there were anysite-specific 'show stoppers' due to sensitivities. This subsequent work also developed a range of measures to mitigate potentiallyadverse effects and manage project implementation, as part of an ESMP that was developed. A special (independent) Avian RiskAssessment and Management study focusing on avifauna revealed that there were some inherent risks to birds, generally considered tobe at a locallevel, but which required further evaluation through field study. This work also discovered that there were severalsites in proximity to the TL routing that were of strategic importance to seasonal migration of birds due to the habitat type.Consequently, further detailed fieldwork needs to be undertaken as part of the individual, country-specific ESIAs that arescheduled to be undertaken by the national ESIA Consultants.
