Disclosure Notice – Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP) & Asbestos Management Plan (AMP)
The Sierra Leone Land Administration Project (SLLAP), implemented by the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Country Planning (MLHCP) with support from the World Bank, aims to establish an efficient and accessible land administration system in Sierra Leone. SLLAP is guided by both the World Bank’s Environmental and Social Framework (ESF) and Sierra Leone’s environmental regulations, including those of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and other related environmental and social regulations. The ESF sets out requirements for borrowers to identify, assess, and manage environmental and social risks and impacts associated with World Bank-financed projects.
As part of the proposed Construction of National Land Commission Head Office, SLLAP has prepared an Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP) and Asbestos Management Plan (AMP) for disclosure to the public in response to the World Bank safeguard requirements. The main objective of ESMP is to mitigate the various adverse impacts and enhance the positive impacts of the project.
As required by the EHS guidelines of the world bank, existing facilities with Asbestos Containing Materials (ACM) should develop an Asbestos Management Plan (AMP). The objective of the AMP is to minimize and /or eliminate risks associated with the possible exposure to airborne asbestos fibers during the execution phase of the project. The AMP will also address the safe and environmentally responsible disposal of asbestos-containing materials.
Further details of the above-mentioned document can be found at the SLLAP Project Office, 3rd Floor Youyi Building, Ministry of Lands Housing, and Country Planning, Freetown.
Interested parties may contact any of the above-mentioned organizations for further information.
