The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Syrdarya Water Supply Project (P111760) Syrdarya Water Supply Project (P111760) EUROPE AND CENTRAL ASIA | Uzbekistan | Water Global Practice | IBRD/IDA | Investment Project Financing | FY 2011 | Seq No: 14 | ARCHIVED on 14-Sep-2018 | ISR33872 | Implementing Agencies: Republic of Uzbekistan, Kommunkhizmat Agency, State Unitary Enterprise "Suvokova" of Syrdarya Region Key Dates Key Project Dates Bank Approval Date: 01-Mar-2011 Effectiveness Date: 14-Jan-2012 Planned Mid Term Review Date: 20-Mar-2015 Actual Mid-Term Review Date: 20-Mar-2015 Original Closing Date: 31-Dec-2017 Revised Closing Date: 30-Jun-2019 pdoTable Project Development Objectives Project Development Objective (from Project Appraisal Document) The Project development objective (PDO) is to improve the availability, quality and sustainability of public water supply services in selected districts of the Syrdarya region. Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project Objective? No Components Table Name Component A: Improvement of Water Supply Infrastructure:(Cost $95.99 M) Component B: Institutional Strengthening and Capacity Building:(Cost $1.76 M) Component C: Feasibility Studies for Future Investments:(Cost $0.75 M) Component D: Project Management:(Cost $1.68 M) Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Moderately Satisfactory Moderately Unsatisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Moderately Unsatisfactory Moderately Unsatisfactory Overall Risk Rating Substantial Substantial Implementation Status and Key Decisions Progress towards achievement of the Project Development Objective (PDO) has been downgraded to Moderately Unsatisfactory. A review of current schedules indicates the infrastructure activities in Khavast, Bayaut and Sardoba districts are unlikely to be completed prior to project closing date (June 30, 2019) affecting around 160,000 people. Moreover, the concern is increasing about the slow progress of household service connections. The Implementation Progress rating has been downgraded to Moderately Unsatisfactory to reflect limited progress in infrastructure activities, which has been lower than expected for the construction season. Key issues hindering the overall progress include delays with Government co-financing, 9/14/2018 Page 1 of 8 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Syrdarya Water Supply Project (P111760) slow approvals of contract extensions and lists of imported goods. Other persistent areas of concerns relate to noncompliance with financial reporting requirements (delayed audits), safeguards management and PCU staffing. Out of eleven works packages, three have been completed, and six contracts are at an advanced stage and nearing completion. Contracts SRV/W/20 lots 1 and 2, awarded in 2017, are of particular concern, with civil works progress still less than 15 percent. The Bank has urged close monitoring of civil works and timely resolution of pending issues, by intensifying involvement of the Suvokova, their consultants, and the local authorities to accelerate the progress at this critical stage of project implementation. The institutional strengthening activities under Component B have progressed over the reporting period. The WaterControl billing system has been installed and Suvokova’s data have been migrated to the unified billing system. Progress of activities related to accounting systems has been delayed due to procurement issues for hardware/software for installation and training for the new accounting system across all districts. Further support to the Syrdarya Suvokova will be provided through technical assistance financed by the Swiss State Secretariat for Economic Affairs (SECO), which commenced in August 2018.
