Cost
The base cost for LUSIP amount to Euro 142.1 million. By considering physical contingencies of 10% throughout the whole implementation period and an annual price increase of 2.5%, the total project cost will be Euro 179.1 million. These
costs can be split up into two phases where the total cost of Stage I are Euro 103.5 million and the total cost of Stage II amount to Euro 75.6 million.

Resettlement
Within the project area both the Government and the administration are largely represented through the traditional structures. The Chiefs control all land in the area. The reallocation of land and people, resettled onto the irrigated areas,
will need very close co-operation with the traditional structures.
Around 70 households will need to be resettled from the area to be flooded by the reservoir. Another 20 homesteads have to be resettled due to irrigation infrastructure, particularly feeder canal and main canal.
Ongoing discussions with traditional structures and farmers clearly indicate that equivalent land can be found within their present Chieftaincy and close to their present location. |
