No The World Bank Haiti Sustainable Rural and Small Towns Water and Sanitation Project (P148970) I. PROJECT STATUS AND RATIONALE FOR RESTRUCTURING A. Context 1. This Restructuring Paper seeks approval of Restructuring of the Haiti Sustainable Rural and Small Towns Water and Sanitation Project (P148970). The project is financed by the International Development Association (IDA) grant No. D0680-HT in the amount of SDR36.3 million (US$50.0 million equivalent), approved on May 26, 2015, and declared effective on December 15, 2015. The Additional Financing (AF) was supported from the IDA Crisis Response Window grant No. D2010-HT in the amount of SDR14.6 million (US$20.0 million equivalent), approved on June 14, 2017. Both grants are scheduled to close on September 30, 2021. 2. The Project Development Objectives (PDOs) are to (i) increase access to improved water supply, and sanitation in targeted rural areas and small towns in zones affected by cholera; (ii) strengthen the Recipient's water and sanitation service delivery mechanism at the deconcentrated level; and (iii) improve the Recipient's capacity to respond promptly and effectively to an Eligible Emergency. The following three components support the achievement of the PDOs: (i) Institutional Strengthening, Capacity Building and Project Management; (ii) Water Supply and Sanitation, and (iii) Contingency Emergency Response (CER). B. Project Status 3. Progress towards achievement of the PDO and overall Implementation Progress (IP) are currently rated Moderately Satisfactory. The Mid-Term Review (MTR) that took place in March 2019 confirmed the relevance of the Project design (with some adjustement proposed in this restructuring) and concluded that the PDO indicators were achievable within the available timeframe provided that the improvements identified during the MTR are implemented. 4. To date, US$32.72 million (46.18 percent) of the IDA grants have been disbursed (US$28.72 million from D0680- HT and US$4 million from D02010-HT). As of end-October 2020, total commitments have increased to US$65 million (93 percent) with the signing of the 5 largest contracts of l’Asile, Abricot, Cerca La Source,Lascahobas and La Vallée Jacmel Additional commitments associated with small works contracts will increase commitments to US$69 million by end-Decemberber 2020. 5. There has been slow progress during the initial phase of implementation for the following reasons: (i) delays in securing quality technical support to conduct the design studies, (ii) limited capacity to prepare safeguards documents, (iii) limited procurement capacity within DINEPA causing 4-12 months delays in awarding works contracts, (iv) difficulties in prioritizing sub-projects (choice of localities) by the OREPAs, and (v) several unsecured situations causing the suspension of some activities. The socio-political turmoil in the country, the institutional transitions (changes in Project Implementation Unit (PIU) team), and disruptions caused by the hurricane Matthew in October 2016 are additional (external) factors that contributed to slow implementation. The World Bank Haiti Sustainable Rural and Small Towns Water and Sanitation Project (P148970) 6. Most of the above-mentioned implementation challenges have now been addressed and the Project is currently making progress despite the COVID-19 crisis. However, the pace of implementation post-MTR has been slower than expected due to recurrent strikes, social unrests and associatedshutdown of activities between September and December 2019, and more recently due to the pandemic. Despite this situation, the PIU team has shown much dedication and continued working unabated throughout the COVID-19 emergency. The implementation schedule of remaining works remains tight, but is feasible and all the works are expected to be completed before August 2021. The 4 largest contracts include necesssary incentives to ensure completion within the remaining project timeframe. The Bank is working in close collaboration with the PIU to ensure timely monitoring and supervision, and the project has deployed additional resources including supervision firms and experience engineer to enhance support andpreempt any slippages. 7. Estimated commitment and disbursment projections based on the agreed implementation schedule are presented below: Cumulative Cumulative Date Commitments Disbursments (in US$ million) (in US$ million) 30 November, 2020 69.0 37.6 31 Mach, 2021 70.0* 53.6 30 June, 2021 60.0 30 September, 2021 63.0 * The remaining amount to be committed from December 2020 to March 2021 includes a combination of very small works, operating costs and equipment acquisition. 8. Achievements to-date under each one of the Project components can be summarized as follows:  Component 1: Institutional Strengthening, Capacity Building, and Project Management (US$19.35 million). The cumulative disbursement and commitments under this Component have reached 52 percent and 71 percent respectively. Activities carried out so far include the recruitment of consultants at the central and regional levels for project management and reinforcement of OREPAs, respectively. The Project has also financed DINEPA’s operating expenses, including training courses (targeted to technicians, engineers, and manager), as well as the acquisition of equipment and vehicles. The Project also supported the development and roll out of the multiannual scheduling and budgeting process “Budget Programme par Objectifs” (BPO). This support is expected to strengthen DINEPA’s and OREPA’s ability to plan, schedule, monitor, and budget water supply and sanitation (WSS) interventions to help meet the UN’s Sustainable Development Goal 6: “Ensure access to water and sanitation for all”). This Component also finances the accounting and financial diagnosis of the DINEPA and the OREPAs through the Expert Gardère Cabinet Assistance Contract. Implementation and operationalization of the accounting system at the OREPAs’ level and the consolidation of financial information at the central level started in September 2019. The computers and equipment are delivered and installed, and the training of the OREPAs has been carried out in February 2020. A new national water and sanitation database has been established and used for sector planning and monitoring, including the BPO. The World Bank Haiti Sustainable Rural and Small Towns Water and Sanitation Project (P148970) Initial challenges in the implementation of this Component related to the limited capacity of the OREPAs to carry out their deconcentrated functions have been addressed (e.g., payment of wages, supervision of small works, hiring of personnel, preparation, and submission of reports). Priority actions for the reinforcement of OREPAs are under implementation such as monitoring tools and setup private operators management.  Component 2: Water Supply and Sanitation (US$45.65 million). The cumulative disbursement and commitments under this Component have reached 23 percent and 95 percent respectively. Investments targeting drinking water supply systems include: (i) the construction or rehabilitation of the Casse, Biassou, Boc Banic, Los Cacaos and Thomonde water systems; (ii) repair of the Gonaïves pumping station; (iii) rehabilitation of the water system of Anse à Pitre in the South, (iv) construction of six boreholes in Anse-à- Galet; and (v) the rehabilitation and extension of Boucan Lamarre and Pointe-à-Raquette water systems on La Gonâve island. Besides, the Project has already installed 24 Professional Operators (POs) and at least 38 water committees (CAEPAs) for the management of the systems built or rehabilitated. Rehabilitation works in the five cities of Tiburon, Les Anglais, Roche à Bateau, Port à Piment, and Port Salut water systems, and Bodarie are in progress in the South and on the Andro’s water system in the North West. With the Education project (PECQ), the project achievements on the sanitation side include the construction or rehabilitation of 27 sanitary blocks in the South, the Gonâve Island, and in the Centre, particularly on the border areas with the Dominican Republic. Regarding the sanitary blocks in the public schools of the South, a management protocol has been signed between DINEPA and the Ministry of Education, represented by the School Directors for the management of the blocks. Technical studies for the Drinking Water Supply Systems (SAEPs) of Môle Saint Nicolas and Anse Rouge experienced delays but are back on track. Works contracts for l’Asile, Abricot Bellevue, Lascahobas, Cerca la Source, Boucan Carré, Decovil and La Vallée Jacmel have been signed and works have started. Works for Miguel, Selpetre water systems and small water points in the Center are awarded, and works for Latiboliere water systems are in procurement process. The Task Team continues supporting DINEPA to ensure that the action plan adopted is met and all the remaining small works contracts are commited before December 2020. A new set of activities have been initiated to respond to the COVID-19 emergency. In the days following the health national emergency declaration, an amount of US$2.28 million was released from the Project to finance COVID-19 emergency activities. These activities include : (i) the installation of handwashing points at border posts and public markets, communication of prevention messages, water trucking in areas without access to water, and emergency repairs to priority water systems, for an amount of US$1.43 million. These activities have been implemented by the 3 decentralized utilities, OREPAs North, South and Center; (ii) Simultaneously, a contract of US$ 0.85 million have been signed with UNICEF for the COVID-19 response in localities where OREPAs were not intervening, to : (i) provide access to more than 2,100 handwashing stations equipped with soap and water supplies, installed at critical points in the communities, including markets, orphanages, prisons, and healthcare centers, and raise public awareness across the country for more than 1 million people sensitized through community engagement activities. This contract includes also the construction and rehabilitation of WASH infrastructure in health centers located in 10 departments. These activities are fully aligned with the original project scope, which does not need to be amended.  Component 3: Emergency Response (US$5.0 million). The cumulative disbursement on this Component has reached 62 percent. This Component supported the emergency response after Hurricane Matthew. The funds The World Bank Haiti Sustainable Rural and Small Towns Water and Sanitation Project (P148970) were used to rebuild or restore 62 water systems in the departments of Nippes, South, and Grand Anse, to rehabilitate the water system and rebuild a sanitary block in the National School of Anse-à-Pitre, and rehabilitate the SAEP of Gayac in Thomazeau. 9. The Project is in full compliance with fiduciary and safeguards policies. Performance on fiduciary and safeguards can be summarized as follows:  Fiduciary compliance. The Project complies with Bank fiduciary policies. Performance on financial management is currently rated Moderately Satisfactory. Progress has been observed in terms of reconciliation of advanced funds to Regional Offices (OREPAs), but due to the current pandemic, delays in processing the supporting documentation were experienced. Implementation of the accounting software ACCPAC in the OREPAs is ongoing, along with intensive training to users. It is critical to achieving an integrated system that will allow DINEPA to improve the monitoring and control of the financial information of the Project and to facilitate the production of the financial and budgetary reports required by the World Bank. There are no overdue audit statements or IFRs. Procurement is also currently rated as Moderately Satisfactory. An experienced procurement specialist is in place for the past six months, who is advancing procurement processes with the support from the Project Coordinator.  Safeguards compliance. The Project complies with Bank environmental and social safeguards policies and requirements. Safeguards performance is currently rated as Moderately Satisfactory. An experienced consultant is in place to oversee the implementation of the safeguards instruments and to support the PIU to proactively manage safeguards risks including implementation of environmental and social management plans for sub-projects. Actions for strengthening the grievance redress mechanism have been identified and agreed. No Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) incidents categorized as serious or severe have been reported so far via the Safeguards Incident Response Toolkit (SIRT). C. Rationale for Restructuring 10. The project Mid Term Review concluded on the need to restructure to streamline and reduce the complexity of the results framework, revise the indicators with more realistic targets, reallocate funds between categories to compensate costs overrun of activities under Component 2, including the reallocation of unused funds under Component 3; and authorize the use of the funds for land acquisition compensation. The proposed changes were mutually agreed with the Borrower and formally requested by the Minister of Finance of the Republic of Haiti. 11. The restructuring could not be formalized earlier due to the difficulties to get the final figures on disbursement and commitments. DINEPA produced these figures in May 2020, and the proposed restructuring was confirmed with DINEPA during the June 2020 Supervision mission, following a detailed assessment of outstanding work contracts expected to be signed by November 2020, at the latest. An action plan was agreed during the mission and is rigorously followed for the Project to meet its development objectives in the remaining implementation period. The World Bank Haiti Sustainable Rural and Small Towns Water and Sanitation Project (P148970) II. DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED CHANGES A. Reduce the complexity of the results framework 12. The proposed results framework streamlines the number of indicators and reorganizes and adapts some of them.  As part of this restructuring, the PDO indicators are revised as follows: (i) One PDO indicator for the Component 3 (CERC) is added to measure DINEPA’s capacity to respond to emergencies; (ii) The PDO indicator concerning the national programming mechanism is moved to an intermediate indicator of Component 1; (iii) Additional small changes have been done including the revision of one PDO indicator formulation, the reordering of indicators in a more consistent manner, and the reduction of PDO sub-indicators from 8 to 6; (iv) The sub-indicator “piped water systems managed sustainably by a professional operator (OP) in zones affected by Hurricane Matthew” is removed as it was duplicated and is already counted in the PDO indicator on professional operators. Similarly, the sub-indicator “Female in rural areas provided with access to Improved Water Sources” is removed because it is redundant with the indicator on “Female beneficiaries” which is a percentage (50%).  Intermediate indicators for Component 1 are adjusted as follow: (i) The indicator of “design support for a joint monitoring mechanism between Haiti and the Dominican Republic responding to trans-boundary pandemics and outbreaks of water and excreta-related diseases” is removed, as it was challenging to initiate a collaboration between the institutions in charge of both countries. Therefore, beneficiaries in localities on the border with the Dominican Republic including bi-national markets are counted as part of a PDO sub-indicator; (ii) The two indicators concerning the accounting system and the use of baselines at the OREPAs level will become sub-indicators of the national programming mechanism (BPO); (iii) The indicator “communities where DINEPA and MSPP local structures have jointly been trained on hygiene, etc.” is moved under Component 2 intermediate results indicators, as it is an indicator on sanitation.  Intermediate indicators for Component 2 are revised as follow: (i) A new sub-indicator of “people trained to improve hygiene behavior” indicator has been added to present the results of the handwashing facilities build in the context of the COVID-19 awareness campaign; (ii) The indicator regarding a partnership between DINEPA and MSPP local level in training on hygiene is moved to become an another sub-indicator of the “people trained to improve hygiene behavior”; (iii) A new intermediate indicator is introduced to count the number of hospitals and health centers whose water supply system was repaired under COVID-19 emergency.  Target values of several indicators have been readjusted in line with the real population data that has been collected through the sub-projects studies. Thus, the direct beneficiaries is reduced from 685,000 to 618,000 people, including beneficiaries of small repairs in the context of COVID emergency. B. Reallocate funds between disbursement categories 13. A reallocation is proposed between disbursement categories of the two IDA grants to align them with Project needs and to be able to cover expenses to respond to the COVID-19 emergency. Under IDA grant No. D0680-HT, funds allocated to disbursement category 2 will be reduced to SDR2,173,000, funds allocated to disbursement category 3 will be reduced to SDR322,114 and under disbursement category 1 funds will be increased to The World Bank Haiti Sustainable Rural and Small Towns Water and Sanitation Project (P148970) SDR33,695,386. Similarly, under IDA grant No. D2010-HT, funds allocated to disbursement category 2 will be reduced to zero, and under disbursement category 1 funds will be increased to SDR14,563,500. C. Authorize the use of funds for land acquisition as part of resettlement expenditures It was not anticipated that the Project would need to cover land acquisition as part of resettlement expenditures since it was expected that the Borrower would receive voluntary land donations for the footprint of small structures. However, the circumstances have changed, and land compensation needs have arisen from Project actions. As such, a RVP memo has been prepared and approved the December 11th to cover land compensation as part of resettlement expenditures for the Project for the remaining implementation period. The operational manual will be updated to take into account the land acquisition, and will need to be approved by the Bank before any disbursement for land acquisition can be done. The land acquisition compensations will be guided by an Environmental and Social Analysis, which will be funded by the Project and carried out by DINEPA. III.
