MILLENNIUM CHALLENGE 

CORPORATION 

[MCC FR 08–14] 

Notice of Amendment to Compact With 

the Government of the Republic of Mali 

AGENCY: Millennium Challenge 

Corporation. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: In accordance with Section 

609(i)(2) of the Millennium Challenge 

Act of 2003, as amended (Pub. L. 108– 

199, Division D), the Millennium 

Challenge Corporation is publishing a 

summary, justification and the complete 

text of the Amendment to Millennium 

Challenge Compact between the United 

States of America, acting through the 

Millennium Challenge Corporation, and 

the Government of the Republic of Mali. 

Representatives of the United States 

Government and the Government of the 

Republic of Mali executed the 

Amendment documents on September 

11, 2008. 

Dated: September 19, 2008. 

William G. Anderson, Jr., 

Vice President and General Counsel, 

Millennium Challenge Corporation. 

Summary of Amendment to Millennium 

Challenge Compact With the 

Government of the Republic of Mali 

The Board of Directors of the 

Millennium Challenge Corporation 

(MCC) has approved an amendment (the 

Amendment ) to the existing 

approximately $460.8 million, five-year 

Millennium Challenge Compact (the 

Compact ) between the United States of 

America, acting through MCC, and the 

Government of the Republic of Mali. 

Background 

The Millennium Challenge Compact 

between the United States of America 

and the Government of the Republic of 

Mali was signed November 13, 2006, 

and entered into force on September 17, 

2007. The Mali Compact previously had 

three major projects—the Alatona 

Irrigation Project, the Airport 

Improvement Project, and the Industrial 

Park Project (each as defined in the 

Compact). Extensive feasibility studies 

of the Industrial Park Project and 

Airport Improvement Project 

highlighted the following issues: 

Policy and institutional arrangements 

related to the industrial park and 

industrial development were not in 

place, and reforms critical to a 

successful industrial park would have 

taken several years and significant effort 

to achieve. Therefore, it was no longer 

advisable to invest in industrial park 

physical infrastructure. 

The estimated costs of both the 

Airport Improvement and Industrial 

Park Projects were significantly higher 

than the amounts budgeted for such 

projects in the Compact. After a series 

of extensive consultations, MCA-Mali 

(the Malian entity implementing the 

Compact) formally requested that the 

Industrial Park Project be eliminated 

from the Compact and that funds from 

such project be reallocated and used for 

the Airport Improvement Project. It was 

agreed that the Alatona Irrigation Project 

would remain as set forth in the existing 

terms of the Compact with respect to its 

scope and budget allocation. 

Scope of the Amendment 

The Amendment memorializes the 

proposed restructuring by enacting the 

following changes: (a) Funds currently 

allocated under the Compact to the 

Industrial Park Project will be 

reallocated to the Airport Improvement 

Project; and (b) the description of the 

Airport Improvement Project will be 

refined based on the results of the 

feasibility studies. 

In addition, given the challenges to 

achieving full implementation of the 

Airport Improvement Project within the 

term of the Compact, the Amendment 

revised the description of the Airport 

Improvement Project in the annexes to 

the Compact to allow the MCC to have 

future decision points regarding the 

scope of the Airport Improvement 

Project without having to further amend 

the Compact. No material changes are 

currently required to the scope or 

budget for the Alatona Irrigation Project. 

Finally, the Amendment revised the 

amendment provision of the Compact to 

permit additional amendments to the 

Compact, if necessary, without requiring 

such amendments to be subject to the 

domestic approval process that was 

required for the Compact, and the 

Amendment will update certain 

information, such as the MCC Principal 

Representative and the name of certain 

Government of Mali ministries on the 

MCA-Mali board of directors. 

Effect of the Amendment 

The restructuring of the Compact will 

decrease overall compact risk since the 

Industrial Park Project was the most 

risky project under the Compact. The 

Amendment will decrease the 

environmental and social footprint of 

the Compact program; thereby 

decreasing the overall risks. 

The Airport Improvement Project will 

be implemented under significant time 

constraints, taking into account that the 

Compact entered into force on 

September 17, 2007. Although there 

appears ample time to design and 

renovate the Airport runway and other 

infrastructure, the schedule to design 

and construct the proposed new 

terminal building is tight. It also must 

be taken into account that, worldwide, 

implementation delays are common 

with airports and large construction 

projects of this nature. 

An implementation plan to address 

the completion risk has been developed 

and incorporated into the restructuring 

of the Compact, which includes a series 

of milestones for the preparation of a 

design brief for the proposed new 

terminal building, the mobilization of a 

project management team, and the 

activation of a design and supervision 

consultant. In the event one or more of 

these milestones are missed, the 

implementation plan will be revised by 

MCC. Under the new plan, MCC 

believes that the Airport Improvement 

Project will be completed within the 

five-year term of the Compact.
