About this file
This document contains an Environmental Mitigation and Monitoring Plan (EMMP) template and information on a related federal contract opportunity from the US Agency for International Development in Zambia. The EMMP template provides guidance on developing site-specific plans to implement mitigation measures and monitor indicators identified in Initial Environmental Examinations for USAID-funded activities. It outlines the required components of an EMMP, including mitigation actions, monitoring indicators and frequency, responsible parties, and field monitoring documentation.
The related federal contract opportunity involves providing technical assistance through the USAID Family Health and Nutrition Activity in Zambia. The goal is to strengthen Zambia's public health system capacity to deliver reproductive, maternal, newborn, child, and adolescent health and nutrition services. The activity will work with the Government of Zambia's RMNCAH&N Continuum of Care Program to build health service delivery capacity, strengthen management systems, and improve community engagement. USAID anticipates awarding a cost-plus-fixed-fee completion contract for up to $25-35 million over five years to support these objectives.

PURPOSE
Environmental Mitigation and Monitoring Plans (EMMPs) are required for USAID-funded projects, as specified in ADS 204, when the 22 CFR 216 documentation governing the project (e.g. the Initial Environmental Examination (IEE)) specifies mitigation measures are needed. EMMPs are in important tool for translating applicable IEE conditions and mitigation measures into specific, implementable, and verifiable actions.
An EMMP should clearly defines:
1. Mitigation measures. Actions that reduce or eliminate potential negative environmental impacts resulting directly or indirectly from a particular project or activity, including environmental limiting factors that constrain development.
2. Monitoring indicators.[footnoteRef:2] Criteria that demonstrate whether mitigation measures are suitable and implemented effectively. [2: Note: Monitoring indicators differ from performance indicators, which are the measures that USAID uses to detect progress towards the results included in a Results Framework.]
3. Monitoring/reporting frequency. Timeframes for appropriately monitoring the effectiveness of each specific action.
4. Responsible parties. Appropriate, knowledgeable positions assigned to each specific action.
5. Field Monitoring/Issues. Field monitoring needs to be adequately addressed i.e. monitoring dates, observations, issues identified and resolution. This field is primarily for documentation during implementation.
An EMMP is a living document. It should be reviewed against the IEE and updated/tailored as needed over the life of implementation, e.g. when new sites are identified or changes in scope are made through award modifications and IEE Amendments.
· 1.0 PROJECT/ACTIVITY SUMMARY
· 2.0 SITE SPECIFIC INFORMATION
· 3.0 ANNUAL REPORTING
Annually, the Implementing Partner will prepare an Environmental Mitigation and Monitoring Report (EMMR) to be submitted to the Activity Manager/AOR/COR and the USAID Environmental Compliance Database. This report will summarize the effectiveness of mitigation measures, issues encountered, resolutions, and lessons learned. As appropriate, attachments such as site photos, verification of local inspections, product warranties, etc should also be included.
