NDATION OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE INT RNATIONAL BANK FOR RECONSTRUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT TO THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTORS ON A PROPOSED LOAN TO THE REPUBLIC OF COLOMBIA FOR A NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PROGRAM 1. I submit for your approval the following memorandum and recommendation on a proposed loan to Colombia for the equivalent of US$39.0 million to help finance a Natural Resource Management Program. The loan would be at the Bank's standard variable interest rate, with a maturity of 20 years, including five years of grace. 2. Background. Deforestation is a serioas threat to Colombia's environment. It is estimated to occur on some half million ha annually, or 1% of the forested area of about 54.5 million ha in 1984. Deforestation undermines Colombian prospects for sustainable development, since it takes place in areas that are ecologically poorly suited for agriculture and other non-forest uses. The forest environment of the Andean region, and particularly the water catchment areas, are most threatened from encroaching agriculture, grazing and fuelwood gathering. The Choc6 Region along the Pacific Coast, which has 10% of Colombia's forests, is one of the world's "hot spots* for biodiversity, has a high incidence of indigenous and Afro-Colombian people, and its primary forests are cleared mainly for pulp and sawn wood, producing 62.5% of Colombia's timber. 3. Since 1989, the Government has been developing and implementing a Tropical Forestry Action Plan for Colombia (PAFC). This plan aims at: (i) managing and conserving forest ecosystems; (ii) rehabilitating and protecting degraded areas; and (iii) strengthening policies and institutions of the forestry sector. However, policy/institutional analy-tis and development have been weak. Proposals for a new environmental law and the restructuring of the environmental system, including the creation of a new Ministry of the Environment, are under review by Congre. The existing concessions and royalty policies for natural forests need reform, since they are not conducive to rational forest exploitation and not consistent with Colombia's move towards greater community participation and towards land regularization. As a result, there is currently an inadequate basis for proceeding with PAFC's proposed large investments in civil works, equipment and staffing to improve the management of natural forests of the environmentally sensitive Choc6 Region. 4. Lons Learned from Previous Bank Involvement. The Bank's experience with natural resource management projects in Colombia is limited to the -Upper Magdalena Pilot Watershed Management Project" (Loan 2069-CO) and the integrated rural development projects (DRI), of which a third phase program (Lman 3250-CO) is currently under implementation. The Upper Magdalena Pilot Project was designed to test forest production and land conservation measures. However, it did not achieve its targets or provide the basis for the preparation of a larger follow-up project envisaged for the entire river basin, largely because of management instability and lack of commitment in the implementing agency, INDERENA. Nevertheless, the project helped alter perceptions and attitudes of Colombia's decisionmakers about the importance of protecting critical watersheds, as reflected in the design of PAFC (and the proposed project). To overcome the institutional problems encountered with the past project, the proposed project would use mainly regional autonomous corporations for the implementation of field programs. These corporations are better suited than a central agency to enlist beneficiaries' participation because of their proximity to the field operations and the representation of local institutions and people on their boards. The focus of the DRI projects was mainly on alleviation of poverty through multisectoral programs for rural development which, Inter alia, include reforestation and watershed protection activities. Lessons learned from these relatively successit projects have been incorporated into the design of the proposed project, in particular, the use of existing highly decentralized institutions, cofinancing of inNestments with the implementing agencies/beneficiaries, and prqject appraisals and management by a central government agency. 5. Rationale for Bank Involvement. As described in the latest country assistance strategy (Report No. R93-198, dated November 19, 1993) and to be discussed during the Board meeting on December 16, 1993, the main thrust of the Bank Group's assistance strategy for Colombia from the mid-1980s has been to help establish a policy environment supportive of growth led by the private sector. Substantial structural reforms took place in 1990-91. However, as long-standing policy impediments are lifted, the need to address other constraints becomes more evident. One of these major constraints relates to the degradation of the natural resource base. The 1990-94 development plan proposes to strengthen environmental protection agencies, including the establishment of a new ministry, and to start programs for the management of watersheds, forests and natural parks. The Government has requested the Bank to support its natural resource program because of the Bank's experience with this type of operation in the Region and elsewhere. In fact, environment and natural resource management are a major focus of the Bank Group's country assistance strategy. 6. Ongoing project activities in Colombia which address environmental issues, and which complement the proposed Natural Resource Management Program (NRMP) include: (i) the *Environmental Program,* supported by a loan from the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB), which would help establish and strengthen a proposed new Ministry of the Environment, improve watersheds and national parks in areas different from NRMP, and establish a National Environmental Fund to support the implementation of environmental projects; (ii) the GEF/UNDP-supported "Biopacifico Project,' which provides mainly technical assistan%e to help conserve the biodiversity in the Choc6 Biogeographic Region;' and (iii) an IDB-supported Pacific Plan Project at the early identification stage that would improve the social and economic infrastructure of mainly urban areas of the Pacific Coast. In line with the agreed inter-bank coordination on natural resource management activities, the IDB-supported Environmental Program would focus on the central and northern parts of Colombia, and would not inclue natural forest management or address forest policy, land -3- tenure and indigenous peoples issues. The Bank's regional focus under NRMP will be the western parts of Colombia, where biodiversity, natural forest management, land titling and indigenous peoples concerns are of prime importance. 7. Project Objectives. The key objective of NRMP would be to develop policies and mechanisms that would contribute to arrest the ongoing degradation of natural renewable resources. It would be the first phase of a longer-term program and would be expected to generate the policy, institutional and technical base for future forest management and land titling investments in the Choc6 Region. In the Choc6 Region, the specific objective would be to help conserve the primary moist forest and its biodiversity. In the highland areas of the Western and Central Cordilleras, the specific objective would be to assist in halting and reversing forest conversion and degradation. 8. Project Description. NRMP, estimated to cost US$65.3 million, would support the development of a rational forest policy and of a strategy for natural resource management in the Choc6 Region. Specific actions in the Choc6 would include: ecological zoning; the establishment of an environmental monitoring system for four ongoing forest use projects; titling and demarcation of indigenous reserves; titling of Afro-Colombian communities; institutional analysis of five regional autonomous corporations; and support to regional committees of Afro-Colombian and Amerindian communities (US$10.8 million). In the western Highlands, the project would support investments for the protection and rehabilitation of selected watersheds (US$25.7 million). In western Colombia the project would support investments for the improved management of national parks and buffer zones (US$8.7 million). The project would also strengthen programs and institutions for forestry/environmental education, training, research and pilot projects, NRMP management, and coordination, and project preparation and evaluation (US$20.1 million). 9. Community participation and indigenous peoples development actions, both for Amerindian and Afro-Colombian groups, are built into most of the above components and include the following specific activities and elements: (i) the definition and legal protection of indigenous lands that do not have title; (ii) boundary demarcation of existing Ameraidian reserves (resguardew); (iii) actions to advance the process of land titling for Afro-Colombian communities in the Choc6 Region; (iv) support to regional committees of vepresentatives from Afro-Colombian and Amerindian groups to, Inter alia, facilitate their involvement in environmental monitoring and land titling; (v) within the national parks component, defining indigenous and Afro-Colombian rights; and (vi) extensive consultations with the affected populations under the sub-components for the ecological zoning of the Choc6 Region; the development of a forest policy; the environmental monitoring; the periodic evaluations; and under the external advisory arrangements. 10. Project Costs and Fuancing. The proposed Bank loan of US$39.0 million would finance 60% of total program costs equivalent to 78% of the foreign exchange costs and 54% of local costs. The national parks component, estimated to cost US$8.7 million (13% of the total), would be entirely financed by tne Borrower. However, at a later stage, this component is expected to benefit from grant support from the Minister for Development Cooperation of The Netherlands (the Dutch Grant) that would be administered by the Bank. The balance of NRMP costs, US$17.6 million (27%), would be financed by the local implementing agencies, including the participating communities. The Republic of Colombia would be the Borrower of the proposed Bank loan. The Borrower would pass on part of the Bank funds on a matching grant basis to the agencies that implement the environmental monitoring system, titling of indigenous resguardos, watershed rehabilitation, education, training, and forestry research. 11. Prqject Implementation. Colombia's National Planning Department (DNP), with a newly established C: ordinating Unit reporting to DNP's Sub-Director, would have overall responsibility for managing, and partly implementing, NRMP.J/ Mqjor im*`menting agencies for field activities include: the regional autonomous corporations in wes. n Colombia; the Department of Antioquia through its Agriculture Secretariat; INDERENA, the Natural Resources Institute, that would be absorbed by the proposed new Ministry of the Environment; INCORA, the Agrarian Reform Institute; ICFES, the Institute for the Promotion of Higher Education (which on its part would contract with a number of universities and training institutions); SENA, the National Training Service; CONIP, the National Forest Research Corporation; the Coffee Federation, and other prvate and public agencies. DNP would enter into framework agreements and annual cofinancing contracts with each implementing agency to carry out and finance the agreed programs, which will include, where necessary, support to strengthen the planning, implementation and supervision capacities of the public agencies. 12. Procurement. Procurement arrangements are given in Schedule B. 13. Project Evaluations. Three mqjor evaluations would be carried out: (i) a baseline study of physical, economic and social conditions at the start of the project; (ii) a mid-term review and evaluation of project performance and progress; and (iii) an end- evaluation at the close of the external financing period. During the mid-term evaluation, the analyses and recommendations prepared during the first two years of the project to advance the policy, institutional and legal framework for forest management, protected area management, land titling and environmental monitoring in the Choc6 Region would be specifically reviewed, with a view to identify a future project intervention. 14. Environmental Aspects. NRMP is an environmental project that promotes sustainable use of natural renewable resources, partly through community participation. NRMP is classified as an environmental "B" category, that required a limited environmental assessment In October 1992 and February 1993, community participation workshops were / Ono die proposed Minikry of do Envouuatie estab86ed ad opWeadonal, do Cocaiasday Unk would be tmeasteed fro DNP to do w MInlairy. -5- held with involvement of representatives from Afro-Colombian and indigenous groups of the Program areas, local and international non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and the various Government institutions concerned. NRMP was presented to them, and the workshop participants endorsed its design and recommended ways to enhance the involvement of indigenous groups. A panel of independent experts and committees of representatives from indigenous and Afro-Colombian communities will advise on Program implementation and participate in evaluations. 15. Program Objective Category. The activities to be financed by NRMP would come under both the forestry and environment program categories. In providing policies and measures to make the use of natural renewable resources sustainable, in particular in the low- income Pacific Coast areas, NRMP would contribute to stabilize the environment and reduce poverty in the longer term. 16. BenefIts. The main benefits of NRMP are environmental in nature and are not quantified. These regional and national benefits (economic externalities) include the enhanced volume, quality and stability of water supplies for domestic use, irrigation, and hydro-power generation, reduced soil erosion, and a reduction of environmental damages achieved through improved monitoring and control. Employment opportunities would increase in the highlands, in particular through services associated with reforestation and watershed maintenance. Global externalities include the conservation of biodiversity through the protection of humid tropical forest areas, carbon sequestration and other non-use values. 17. Risks. The main risks of NRMP are associnted with: (i) the fluid institutional situation in Colombia (establishment of a new Ministry of the Environment and restructuring of regional corporations); (ii) the evolving legal framework, e.g., a new environmental system; (iii) the process of decentralization of government responsibilities; (iv) the possible continuation of the existing, unsatisfactory system of forest concessions and other forest policies; (v) the need for cooperation by the affected populations; and (vi) the unpredictable security situation in Colombia. While the NRMP design includes as many safeguards as possible, this has also resulted in a complex operation that involves many different institutions and numerous policy elements. In view of the uncertainties listed, the scope of infrastructure investments and of recurrent cost financing requirements (except for the national parks component) has been kept low. Nevertheless, there is the risk that some of the implementing agencies may not perform as timely a manner and as efficiently as expected at appraisal. The risks are partly offset by the strong commitment of the Government to environmental protection, the analysis and gradual buildup of institutional capacity in the areas to be deveoped, the inclusion of specific indigenous peoples and community development actions, and the deferral of major investments in sensitive forest areas until after the policy, legal and institutional framework have been clarified during the two-year policy and strategy development phase of NRMP. Another manner in which the operation is designed to manage the risks is that NRMP will be implemented as a program with a large -6- degree of built-in flexibility for adjusting focus, scope and location of the investments and activities in response to changing conditions and opportunities. 18. Mafjor Actions Agreed During Negotiations. During negotiations, agreement was reached with the Government on the following main actions: (a) Conditions of Effectiveness: (i) the NRMP Operations Manual had been issued by DNP in form and substance acceptable to the Bank; (ii) DNP had established the NRMP Coordinating Unit in form and substance acceptable to the Bank; (iii) the General Coordinator had taken office, and the heads of two secretariats for technical and for legal/financial matters had been appointed, all with qualificatiuns and experience acceptable to the Bank; (iv) the service management agreement, acceptable to the Bank, had been signed; and (v) DNP had signed framework agreements and first-year annual cofinancing contracts, acceptable to the Barik, with at least the following five major implementing agencies: INDERENA, CORNARE, CVC, CORPONARIfO, and ICFES. (b) Conditions of Disbursements: (i) Only expenditures made under DNP and Bank-approved Annual Investment Plans for NRMP would be eligible for funding from the loan; and (ii) expenditures eligible for retroactive financing would include: (1) expenditures by the Coordinating Unit for which detailed work programs and budgets had been approved by the Bank; and (2) expenditures by implementing agencies, which are based on framework agreements (or letters of intent for private sector agencies) and annual cofinancing contracts that had been approved by the Bank. (c) Other Agreements and Assurances: (i) the Government would not, without reaching agreement with the Bank, undertake any restructuring of the Coordinating Unit and the NRMP implementing agencies at the national level; (ii) DNP would present to the Bank the Coordinating Unit's annual work plans and budgets; if satisfactory to the Bank, DNP will not change them without the Bank's consent; (iii) agreement was reached on the detailed terms of reference for the panel of independent experts, and assurance was obtained that the four independent experts, acceptable to the Bank, would be appointed within a period of three months after the effectiveness of the proposed Bank loan; (iv) DNP would prepare the study and recommendations on Colombia's forest sector prior to the mid-term review; and (v) the framework agreements with implementing agencies responsible for environmental management in NRMP areas would contain provisions to ensure that these agencies comply with the norms for environmental licensing in accordance with the existing laws and regulations. 19. Recommendation. I am satisfied that the proposed loan would comply with the Article of Agreement of the Bank and recommend that the Executive Directors approve it. Lewis T.
