Fisheries Development Project This project is part of a wider fisheries development program involving, inter alia, the expansion and modernization of the fishing fleet.  The project will modernize 600 vessels with provision of marine diesel engines, fishing gear and navigation equipment, and provide spare parts for the rehabilitation of 4,600 fishing vessels currently idle.  The project will significantly increase fisheries production and therefore exports.  The estimated rate of return is 41%.
Wuchuan District Heating Project This project will construct a heating plant in a district situated in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, where winters are long and harsh, often reaching temperatures as low as -35 Celsius. 

The new infrastructure will replace the present use of coal-fired boilers with a more energy-efficient and environmentally-friendly central heating. This will not only decrease coal consumption but also improve air quality. Since more households will be connected to the new system, thus eliminating the use of indoor coal-burning boilers, a reduction of respiratory diseases and improvement of overall general health is anticipated. 

In addition, a social protection program will provide government subsidies for heating services and waive connection fees for the poor segments of the population.
Kicukiro-Nyamata-Nemba Road The main objectives of the project are to reduce both vehicle operating costs and road maintenance costs, and to improve the quality of service, reliability and safety. The project will promote the economic development of the region through facilitated access to markets and the export of agricultural output to other regions.

The proposed project consists of the reconstruction of the National Road from Kicukiro to Nemba over a length of 58 kilometres. This road section constitutes the last stretch linking the capital city Kigali to the Burundi. On the Burundi side, a road stretch of approx. 40 km is unpaved, however there are plans to upgrade this stretch to a bituminous standard. The proposed road project thus represents an important link for the country to the regional road through Myinga to Dar es Salaam.

Same Water Supply Project The Nyumba ya Mungu Dam is the source of water for the proposed project. The water intake facility will be located at the centre of Nyumba ya Mungu Dam. At this point, the water is clear and requires less treatment as supported by the water quality analysis. On the basis of the fluctuation of water levels in the dam, it is proposed to install a floating intake structure on which submersible pumps will be fixed. The approximate location of the intake is 600 metres offshore. The Water Treatment Plant is proposed to be located at a site between Lang�ata Kagongo and Nyabinda villages. Water Quality analysis indicate that turbidity and colour are the guiding parameters in the treatment process. The proposed treatment process is conventional through coagulation, sedimentation, filtration and disinfection. Due to spatial distribution and topography in the project area, it is proposed to cover the extensive project area through the provision of storage tanks, to be located by the foot of Pare Mountains at Kiverenge near Lembeni- South of Mwanga(Kiverenge tanks) and at a high point around Nyabinda Village (Nyabinda Tanks). The Kiverenge tanks will be at an elevation of about 1,230 metres, while the Nyabinda Tanks will be at 815 metres.
The two transmission pipeline lines for the rising main are namely RM1 and RM2. RM1 will be about 20km long and used to convey water from the pump-house to the storage tanks to be located at Kiverenge Hills, while RM2 will be about 5km. long and streches to the nearby hill around Kiti cha Mungu village. Preliminary design indicated that economical diameters for these mains are 300mm and 800mm steel pipes for RM1 and RM2 respectively. Preliminary design of the main distribution lines has indicated pipes of variable diameter and type. The main distribution line and network has been estimated to be about 400 kilometres long and on average with 100mm Class C PVC pipes. Two Main Distribution lines are proposed namely: DM1 from Kiverenge Tanks and DM2 from Nyabinda Tanks. It is proposed to construct a storage tank for each village/town covered by the project. Tentatively, 225m3 storage tanks are proposed in 17 each of the 34 villages in the project area while in each of the two towns of Same and Mwanga, a 2000m3 storage tank is proposed.

Eastern Provinces Irrigation Systems Modernization Project a. The overall development objective of the proposed project is to safeguard the food supply to the Cuban population and in particular to increase yields and efficiency in the production of tubers, vegetables and fruits in six eatern provices of Cuba (Camag�ey, Las Tunas, Holgu�n, Granma, Santiago de Cuba and Guant�namo). This will be obtained through the following: i) substituting old mechanised syatems and equipments for new ones, ii) rehabilitating the electrical, civil and water irrigation infraestructure, iii) increasing efficiency of the irrigation and iv) saving energy and water usage in the agricultural provinces concerned.

b. The project encompasses the substitution of old pivot type systems, installation of new aspersion system of the sprinkler type and rehabilitation of the pumping systems in each province. The systems will require the electrical and water rehabilitation works that includes new cabling, transformers and water pining.
