Narrative description of the project
Timor Leste Government Program through Ministry of Planning and Strategic Investment (MPIE), is pefroming confirmation study of possibility of water supply for multi-purpose use from the River Basins of Belulic especially for Ainaro Municipality area, based on comprehensive technical, financial, and environmental risk analysis.
The study is to establish a rational option of water development plan through comprehensive study about local conditions including climate data, topography, and financial possibility. And also study the risks on this new water development plan should be studied, such as environmental impact during and after the construction against the changing of river flow, especially in the downstream, forest, biology (including the marine flora and fauna), social life of people, and hazardous risks on the failure of the water control or storms.
