KENYA COASTAL DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

RESTRUCTURING PAPER

A. SUMMARY

1. This Restructuring Paper (RP) responds to the request of the Government of

Kenya and proposes to introduce the following changes to the Kenya Coastal

Development Project (KCDP; P094692, Credit 4801-KE/TF097578) and accompanying

amendments to the Project’s legal documents: (i) simplification of the Project

Development Objective (PDO); (ii) revision of the results framework, including changes

to outcome indicators so as to better monitor project impact, and revision of targets to

reflect reallocated resources (see below); (iii) revision of institutional arrangements to

allow for implementation of the Development Fund of the Coast, or Hazina ya

Maendeleo ya Pwani (HMP), formerly Coastal Village Fund (CVF) (Part 4(b) of the

Project), by the Kenya Marine Fisheries Research Institute (KMFRI), rather than the Arid

Lands Resource Management Project II (ALRMP II), which is now closed; (iv) revision

of activities included under Schedule 1 of the Financing and Grant Agreements to reflect

agreed simplification and streamlining; (v) reallocation of about 26% of credit proceeds

to facilitate project implementation; (vi) definition of project activities to be financed

under the GEF grant at 100% and to allow for project financing of 100% of expenditures

under Category 1 of the Financing Agreement; and (vii) revision of eligible procurement

methods to include Force Account and Community Participation. The reallocation of

project funds among existing categories will address unbudgeted costs associated with

safeguards requirements and management costs associated with the HMP (now

implemented directly by KMFRI). The reallocation also reflects a reduced scope of

Public-Private Partnership and HMP activities in line with the revised Results

Framework. Overall, the proposed restructuring provides an opportunity to: (i) clarify and

simplify the project design so as to ensure achievement of objectives within the duration

of the project, which is expected to close on October 29, 2016, and (ii) improve the

potential for demonstrating project success.

B. PROJECT STATUS

2. The project was approved on July 27, 2010 and became effective on June 30,

2011, almost a year after Board approval, due to delays in achieving the project’s six

conditions of effectiveness. The project, which has now been under implementation for

one year, has experienced initial delays in procurement and financial management, which

have resulted in an overall slow implementation progress. These shortcomings, mainly

due to weak capacity, have been addressed and implementation is picking up the pace,

with key studies, works and technical consultancies being procured. As of July 25, 2012,

the project has disbursed US$3.02 million. Overall, project implementation progress is

rated Moderately Satisfactory (MS) in the last ISR dated May 7, 2012, to reflect the slow

9

start in implementation. This project restructuring includes simplification and

streamlining of activities which will help expedite implementation.

C. PROPOSED CHANGES

Project’s Development Objective

3. The original Project Development Objective (PDO) is: “To promote

environmentally sustainable management of Kenya’s coastal and marine resources by

strengthening the capacity of existing relevant government agencies and by enhancing the

capacity of rural micro, small and medium sized enterprises in selected coastal

communities”.

4. The proposed revised PDO is: “To improve management effectiveness and

enhance revenue generation of Kenya’s coastal and marine resources.” This change

simplifies the PDO by eliminating the description of the component activities from the

PDO statement, aligning it with the activities supported, and facilitating measurement of

results within the project lifetime.

Results/indicators

5. In addition to changing the PDO, the proposed restructuring introduces changes to

the Results Framework, which has been revised and simplified to include more relevant,

measurable and clearly defined results indicators that are better suited to assess and

monitor the implementation progress toward achieving the PDO. In addition, the targets

related to activities of, or supported by, the HMP have also been revised to better reflect

the pilot nature of these activities. (See Annex 1 for details).

Components

6. The restructuring does not propose revision of any components or

subcomponents; rather it includes changes to the activities to be supported under each

component (Schedule 1 of the Financing and Grant Agreements, and Parts 1, 2, 3 and 4

of the Project). The proposed modifications are intended to reflect the agreed

simplification and streamlining, and distinguish grant- and credit-financed activities,

while retaining the general project design and component structure. Table 1 shows the

activities originally supported by the project and those that would be supported under the

restructured project:

7. It is further proposed to rename the grant fund mechanism supported under

Component 4 (Coastal Village Fund) “Development Fund of the Coast” (Hazina ya

Maendeleo ya Pwani or HMP). The change of name is considered appropriate in order to:

(i) use a name with a better reference to the target group; and (ii) distinguish the fund

from the Constituency Development Fund, presently being implemented by the Kenyan

Government.

Safeguards

8. There are no changes in the safeguards policies triggered by the Project. The PAD

and Integrated Safeguards Datasheet (ISDS) classified the project as “Category B” since

the investments, focused on participatory policy and planning framework at the local

government level, will have moderate environmental impacts. Support to rural economic

development, through assistance to MSMEs, and to subprojects, through the HMP fund,

may have site specific negative environmental impacts. In view of this risk, the project is

supporting the development of spatial plans and land capability maps and of an Integrated

Coastal Zone Management framework that will guide these activities. Larger

investments, such as coastal infrastructure, which may be supported by the Project, will

be carried out after a full EA. Additionally, the project will be financing the development

and implementation of Environmental and Social Management Plans, the preparation of

which is called for in the project’s Environmental and Social Management Framework,

dated March 17, 2010.

9. OP 4.12 (Involuntary Resettlement) applies to the Project since some of the

KCDP activities may restrict or control access to marine and fisheries resources if the co-

management and community rules for access and use of resources are not carefully

18

monitored. The Process Framework (PF) prepared under the Project, which was made

public on May 7, 2010, defines the guidelines for co-management and use of resources,

including a public consultation and disclosure plan and a grievance mechanism.

10. OP/BP 4.10 (Indigenous Peoples) is triggered under the Project as the project area

includes Indigenous Peoples. The Government of Kenya has prepared an Indigenous

Peoples Planning Framework (IPPF), disclosed on February 5, 2010, that provides

information about these communities, their livelihoods and guidance in the event of

impacts by project activities. A comprehensive Social and Impact Assessment for the

entire project area (the six coastal counties of Kilifi, Kwale, Lamu, Mombasa, Taita-

Taveta and Tana River) is being contracted. This study will include a socio-economic

analysis for the entire project area, with screening, mapping and social assessment for

Indigenous Peoples (OP 4.10), and a comprehensive Process Framework for target

groups (OP 4.12). Following the completion of the social assessment, the Project will

support the preparation of site-specific Indigenous Peoples’ Plans will be developed for

all eligible communities affected by the Project (including the HMP).

Institutional Arrangements

11. According to the original project design, the Kenya Arid Lands Resources

Management Project II (ALRMP II) was responsible for implementing the Coastal

Village Fund (CVF) (now Development Fund of the Coast – HMP) activities (Part 4(a) of

the Project). Specifically, the Project was to use established ALRMP II structures at

district and community levels to identify and implement projects and disburse funds

under the CVF. The ALRMP was also to provide necessary technical training to

communities during project implementation.

12. Following the closing of the ALRMP II on December 31, 2010, an alternative

project mechanism has been developed which will provide (i) micro-credits and grants

for priority conservation-compatible activities identified through the various project

components, and (ii) training and capacity building for sub-project implementation.

13. Under the new HMP, responsibility for implementing and overseeing the overall

implementation of the HMP fund will fall under the Kenya Marine Fisheries Research

Institute (KMFRI) -- the agency responsible for implementation of Component 4 and

coordination of overall project implementation -- in collaboration with the co-

implementing agencies (the Kenya Forestry Research Institute, the Kenya Wildlife

Service, the Fisheries Department and the Coast Development Authority).

14. An assessment of KMFRI’s capacity for implementation of the new HMP fund

has been undertaken, highlighting needs in terms of additional staff and equipment.

Specifically, the Project is in the process of: (i) establishing County Liaison Offices in

each of the six coastal counties; (ii) hiring staff for each of these offices; and (iii)

developing and installing a management information system that will permit handling,

processing, monitoring and reporting of HMP activities. Further, each of the seven

partner institutions will appoint one focal point as representative to the HMP fund.

19

Financing

a. Project Costs

15. Currently, the financial intervention is split among the different components as

follows: Sustainable Management of Fisheries Resources Component -- 22% of base

costs; Sound Management of Natural Resources Component -- 22% of base costs;

Support for Alternative Livelihoods Component -- 26% of base costs; and Capacity

Building, M&E, Management and HMP (formerly CVF) Component -- 30% of base

costs, of which support for CDD sub-projects (HMP) represents the largest expenditure at

23%. Project Coordination and Management makes up 7% of base costs. The

restructuring does not affect component project costs.

b. Financing Plan

16. The Financing Plan has been revised to reflect delays in: (i) declaring the project

effective; and (ii) the initial phases of implementation as a result of financial management

and procurement weaknesses. As mentioned in section “B Project Status” above, these

shortcomings have been addressed and the revised Financing Plan includes larger

disbursements during the last 3 years of project implementation (FY 2015, 2016, and

2017). The Estimated Disbursements table in the Data Sheet has been revised

accordingly. As of July 25, 2012, the actual amount disbursed is as follows: IDA

US$2.50 million and GEF US$0.52 million.

17. Reallocation of Credit Proceeds. It is proposed to reallocate SDR 6.2M (26% of

credit proceeds) from Category 3 and Category 4 of the Financing Agreement, to

Category 2 and to a new Unallocated Category. The proposed reallocation is necessary to

facilitate project implementation towards achieving the project development objective.

Specifically, it will allow for addressing unbudgeted costs associated with safeguards

requirements – including technical consultancies for a comprehensive social assessment

including Vulnerable and Marginalized Groups, updating of the Process Framework,

development of co-management actions and social and environmental guidelines on sub-

projects to be implemented and costs associated with implementing the resulting action

20

plans – and management costs associated with the HMP fund (now implemented by

KMFRI). The reallocation also reflects a reduced scope of PPP and HMP activities

(under Categories 3 and 4) in line with the revised Results Framework.

18. In order to facilitate project implementation, it is proposed to increase the

percentage of expenditure to 100% (including taxes) for Category 1 of the Financing

Agreement. This is possible as GEF funds will now be used to fully finance specific

activities as outlined in the following table.

19. The changes are reflected in the revised Disbursement Table of Section IV to the

Financing and Grant Agreements and provided below:

20. Procurement. It is proposed to revise the eligible procurement methods in both

the Financing and Grant Agreements to include the following methods: (a) Community

Participation, which would allow for financing the implementation of community-based

activities for improved fisheries and natural resources management under Components 1

and 2, and of community subprojects under Component 4; and (b) Force Account, which

would allow the carrying out of small and scattered works in remote locations, such as

the construction of fish driers, by the Ministry of Fisheries Development using its own

personnel and equipment.

21. Specifically, the rationale for, and appraisal of, such changes is the following:

(A) Community Participation in procurement was foreseen during project preparation and

appropriate mitigation measures taken into consideration. At the time of preparation,

the CDD component was expected to have been undertaken by the Arid Lands

Resources Management Project (ALRMP) which had the capacity, experience,

implementation tools and local presence that would have minimized procurement

risks considerably. While the provision for Community Participation was included in

the PAD, it was inadvertently omitted from the Financing Agreement. Given that the

ALRMP Project is no longer active, there is a need to revisit the implementation

arrangements for this component in order to identify and mitigate against any

associated risks and at the same time build in a framework for social accountability.

(B) Force Account was not contemplated during project preparation. However during the

post-effectiveness implementation support missions, it was realized that some of the

activities – particularly those related to fisheries micro-projects – involved a large

number of small, low-value contracts that were geographically spread out in remote

locations and which required a high level of craftsman skills. Such characteristics

would likely render the resulting contracts unattractive to local contractors, raise the

cost of administering such contracts if sourced competitively, and make it difficult to

22

guarantee quality due to their uniqueness and required level of specialization. Given

that the responsible ministry (Ministry of Fisheries Development) has the in-house

capacity to undertake such works, it is considered to be the most prudent approach for

constructing these kind of works. Due to the small size and relatively low value of the

contracts envisaged, there are minimal risks which would primarily be attributed to

the management of SOEs, and travel logistics and general contract administration due

to the wide geographical spread. The project has already taken on board specific risk

mitigation measures to address these issues, as set forth in Annex 2.

22. Disbursement Condition. The design and development of the funding

mechanism for the new HMP fund is well advanced and is expected to be finalized by the

end of August 2012, including inter alia the preparation of a detailed Project

Implementation Manual (PIM) containing clear eligibility and selection criteria,

procedures for the application, screening and vetting process. So as not to delay the

processing of the restructuring package, it is proposed to include a disbursement

condition in the Financing Agreement which would allow for financing of HMP activities

only once the revised PIM, reflecting all restructuring-related changes, has been finalized

and approved by the Bank.

D. APPRAISAL SUMMARY

23. The restructuring will not modify the overall design of the project, thus, the

original assumptions with respect to expected impact remain unchanged.

24. The key proposed changes include the following. First, there will be a reduction

in the number of HMP subprojects supported through grants from 840 to 700. However,

the inclusion of a window to support access to micro-credits for Small and Medium Sized

Enterprises (SMSEs) is expected to significantly increase the number of total people

directly benefitting from the HMP. Secondly, the amount allocated to PPP investments is

reduced by 30% compared to what was included in the Project Appraisal Document.

These funds will be used to better assess the feasibility of possible PPP investments,

which can be supported through other project funds as necessary. As such, the basic

assumptions regarding the project impacts at appraisal remain intact.

Risks

25. Overall, the proposed changes do not entail risks additional to those identified

during the original Project appraisal as summarized in the Project Appraisal Document

(PAD). With regard in particular to governance risks posed by the use of the Community

Driven Development (CDD) approach in the financing of community subprojects, the

new HMP mechanism supported under the Project reflects the adoption of enhanced

governance and accountability measures (see Annex 2 for an updated Governance Action

Plan). Responsibility for implementation and oversight of the HMP fund, together with

related procurement and financial management tasks, will be the direct responsibility of

the agency in charge of overall project implementation -- KMFRI, rather than outsourced

to a separate entity. Further, the new HMP mechanism includes clear measures to ensure

transparency and appropriate use of funds, including:

23

(a) the definition of clear eligibility criteria and vetting and approval processes;

(b) the participation of the beneficiaries and their representatives in the management of

the funds allocated to the community sub-projects;

(c) detailed information regarding disclosure and dissemination requirements, including

rules about disclosure of sub-project level reports in a manner understandable to all

interested parties, including subproject expenditures. Emphasis will be given to

information dissemination of project activities to community members and potential

providers of goods, works, and services so as to enhance transparency and

competition in procurement processes;

(d) the design of a comprehensive grievance and complaint mechanism;

(e) periodic audits of financed sub-projects; and

(f) the definition of clear sanctions and remedies.

26. In addition, the PIM will include measures that support social accountability, such

as: (i) a description of a system of fund use monitoring at the community level to enable

the user groups to keep proper books of accounts and account for funds received and

used; (ii) a description of the internal structure, roles and responsibilities within the

Community Group responsible for receipt and use of the funds, including a Governance

Training; and (iii) a Risk Mitigation Plan to address cases of reported misuse of funds.

27. Finally, measures will be adopted to mitigate risks related to the financing of

training, per diems and vehicle and fuel costs (see Annex 2 for details).

Annex 2: Updated Governance Action Plan

Significant Weaknesses/Risk Action/Risk Mitigation Measure Responsible Person Completion Date Poor accountability in project

management and use of resources Enhancing social accountability will entail the following

actions:-

Participation and empowerment of coastal stakeholders

through information disclosure on all aspects of the

project. Some of the disclosure features will be:

i) Posting of information in public places, in particular,

Provincial and District Headquarters, locations and sub-

locations, as well as through the World Bank’s InfoShop.

ii) Creation of a project website on which to publish

information on funds disbursed for various components,

their intended use and the location of those investments.

iii) The local media will also have access to information on

a quarterly basis for publication in the daily press.

iv) Local CSOs will participate in carrying out a yearly

social Audit. The ensuing Report will be shared with the

Bank and the Permanent Secretaries.

v) A Citizen Report Card will be prepared before the

Project Midterm Review.

vi) Regarding accountability around training, the project

has taken the following specific measures: 1) preparing a

project training plan, linked with procurement rules, and

cleared by the TTL; 2) developing standardized rates and

rules for training, regardless of level or institution; 3)

disclosing lists of training participants lists disclosures.

vii) Regarding accountability on per diems paid by the

project, the project is developing a policy outlining the

specific rules for per diems. The policy will outline the

specific circumstances and rates that will be paid, based

upon an evaluation of circulars from the implementing

agencies institutions and from Treasury. The policy will

Implementing agencies

and PCU

be publically disclosed.

Establishment of a Coastal Area Advisory Committee

(CAAC), with a social audit function and an advisory role

to the KCDP. The CAAC will ensure the inclusion of the

beneficiaries in the Coastal Region as well as the

transparency of all project activities.

Enhanced measures to ensure transparency and

appropriate use of HMP funds, including the

participation of the beneficiaries and their representatives

in the management of funds allocated to the community

sub-projects, periodic audits of financed sub-projects,

disclosure of sub-project level reports, a system of fund

use monitoring at the community level, community

Governance Training, and a Risk Mitigation Plan to

address cases of reported misuse of funds. The project is

also developing measures to publically disclose

information on all activities supported through the HMP

including a geo-referenced database with details on the

subproject objectives, contacts, and funding approved and

disbursed.

Significant Weaknesses/Risk Action/Risk Mitigation Measure Responsible Person Completion Date Complaint handling mechanisms Complaints handling through the establishing of a

project grievance mechanism. Such a mechanism will

include clear procedures, responsibilities, and service

standards to ensure any project complaint will be handled

in a transparent and democratic manner, at the appropriate

level -- both the local (county) as well as the regional level

(Coastal Region/KCDP). The main instruments and

approaches foreseen in the PIM to ensure transparency and

accountability include: (i) dedicated phone and email

accounts; (i) creation of a dedicated position within PCU to

handle complaints and grievances under supervision of a

committee; (iii) structured reporting; (iv) publication of

PCU

33

financial support to beneficiaries on a website; (v) regular

value for money audit; and (vi) irregular inspection and

verification.

(KACC), the Project will provide staff with skills on

corruption prevention, corruption red flags and corruption

reporting. At least one integrity workshop will be held per

year.
