Many actions that had been agreed in May 2015 to speed up implementation remain pending. The Mid-Term Review carried out in December 2015 identified urgent actions that were required to bring the Project back on track and proposed options for project restructuring that are now being considered by Government. 3/14/2016 Page 2 of 10 Public Disclosure Copy Public Disclosure Copy The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report RUSSIA FOREST FIRE RESPONSE PROJECT (P123923)
