The first phase APL will contribute to this overall program objective through: (a) enhancing NIA's financial viability, and its institutional capacity to support improvements in irrigation service delivery; (b) transferring increased operation and maintenance (O&M) responsibilities for 58 National Irrigation Systems (NISs) to capable Irrigators' Associations (IAs); and (c) increasing irrigation efficiency and promote reliable access to water among farmers in the selected 58 NISs. Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Project? Yes No Component(s) Component Name Component Cost Irrigation Sector Restructuring & Reform 32.00 Irrigation Infrastructure Development 68.22 Project Management & Coordination 4.81 Public Disclosure Copy Overall Ratings Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Moderately Satisfactory Moderately Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Moderately Unsatisfactory Moderately Unsatisfactory Overall Risk Rating Substantial Moderate Implementation Status Overview Project implementation has significantly improved since the May 2013 mission. Further good progress has been achieved in Component 1 (Irrigation Sector Restructuring and Page 1 of 8 The World Bank Report No: ISR12464 Reform), especially with the release of additional funds from the Department of Budget and Management to address the funding gap for the completion of NIA’s Rationalization Plan. The performance and accomplishments in the Irrigation Management Transfer Program also continued to be encouraging, especially in relation to the targets set. Activities under Component 2 (Irrigation Infrastructure Development) have now picked-up with the completion of additional Core B irrigation systems’ repair works and the completion of procurement of works for all (except one) Core A irrigation systems which involves major rehabilitation and restoration works. Nevertheless, further improvements and faster implementation should Public Disclosure Copy be pursued to catch up with implementation delays and full achievement of targets/indicators. Given the above implementation status, good progress towards meeting the project development objective has also been achieved. While not all end CY 2013 data are available, proxy data indicates that further positive trend has been experienced overall. Specifically, four of the eight outcome indicators have achieved their current and end-of-the project (CY 2015) targets. These include the following PIDP-level indicators: (a) increase in ISF share released to Irrigators Associations (IAs) within one month after collection (91% accomplishment vs. target of 45%); (b) increase in number of IAs performing acceptably under Models 2-4 (98% accomplishment vs. target of 84%); and (c) increase in IA members’ satisfaction rating with irrigation services (91% accomplishment vs. target of 75%). The performance in NIA's financial viability index exclusive of depreciation is also reported to achieve its target of 1.36.
