Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective? No Components Table Name Component 1. Irrigation System Enhancement:(Cost $35.10 M) Component 2.

Interruption of works were caused by protests of community members who claimed that the project would adversely affect their rightful irrigation water allocations. Upon mediation of the PIU, a mutual agreement has been reached, by which the construction works will be completed as soon as weather conditions permit in early 2019. With currently 22 pumps being decommissioned, net energy savings are given as 21.79 million kWh per annum. Upon full completion of all works including the Baghramyan-Norakert Gravity Scheme, almost 36 million kWh will be saved annually and over 12,700 ha of land will receive more reliable irrigation services. With that the PDO is likely to be achieved. Compliance with environment and social safeguards is satisfactory. Financial and procurement management are also satisfactory with no outstanding financial audits. The amount under the original loan agreement (Loan No. 1/4/2019 Page 1 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report IRRIGATION SYSTEM ENHANCEMENT PROJECT (P127759) 8267-AM) (US$30million), which was closed on June 30, 2018, has been fully disbursed. The closing date of the AF (Loan No. 8786-AM) is June 30, 2019. .
