Yes No Component(s) Component Name Component Cost Component A: Strengthening regional coordination and information sharing. 8.70 Component B: Strengthening of Hydromet Services in Kyrgyz Republic. 6.00 Component C: Strengthening of Hydromet Services in Republic of Tajikistan. 13.00 Overall Ratings Public Disclosure Copy Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Moderately Satisfactory Moderately Satisfactory Overall Risk Rating High High Implementation Status Overview The project achieved a key milestone in October of 2012 with the hiring of the System Integrator to provide technical assistance for the project implementation. The overall technical design of the project is expected to be completed by March 2013. The bidding documents for several priority investment activities will be prepared by mid 2013. The commitment from the participating countries ensured that various regional capacity building activities were successfully delivered. The two study tours to China and Russia brought decision- makers and technical specialists from the four participating countries, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan to learn from the experience of peers in better linking Page 1 of 6 The World Bank Report No: ISR8985 Hydromet services with early warning systems and better service orientation to the end users. The regional workshop was held in Bishkek during November 12 – 13, 2012. During this workshop, the participating countries reviewed the project results framework, exchanged ideas, established a shared vision and agreed on specific activities for regional collaboration.
