According to World Bank, the objective of this project is to promote to support the competitive, inclusive, green, and resilient development of the livestock and aquaculture sectors in Sindh province of Pakistan. The Sindh Livestock and Fisheries Department (L&FD) will lead the implementation of the proposed Project.
The environment risks at concept stage is assessed as subtantial and social risks are assessed as moderate.
The main environmental risks of the project are associated with civil works to support rehabilitation and reconstruction of infrastructure (office building, laboratories etc.)and aquaculture activities to be supported under the project. The civil works related anticipated environmental risks are related to localized air and noise pollution, generation of wastewater and disposal of solid waste generation with most of the anticipated impacts are reversible small scale and likely to occur only during construction. There are environmental pollution and CHS/OHS risks associated with use and disposal of vaccines/syringes procured by the Projects. The aquaculture interventions to be supported under the project could have potential environmental impacts related to water pollution and waste disposal of aquaculture activities, risks associated with intentional or accidental introduction of invasive species and risks of water scarcity and water use competition among different water users. The environmental impacts of aquaculture investments can also lead to degradation of land if interventions are planned in already stressed critical habitats like wetlands and mangroves forests of Sindh .
