Concerning with the project, Record of Discussion-R/D's

Partnership, signed between Japan International Cooperation

Agency (JICA) and Ministry of Natural Resource and

Environmental Conservation at 23rd December, 2014.

Project Period JUNE, 2015 to JUNE,2018 (3-year).

Implementing the Project

Kick-off meeting

According to the project procedure, Kick-off meeting hold on

2015, June,11th at Environmental Conservation Department

(Nay Pyi Taw).

From the Kick-off meeting, proposed and discussed the following

aspects;

(1) To analyze the river water quality in Hlaing River in

Yangon region and Doke Hta Wady River, Mandalay

region.

(2) To inspect the factories which is directly disposed

waste water to the rivers.

Stage of the project

Output 1 - Inspection Procedure is standardized

Output 2 - Capacity for implementing water quality survey

to obtain reliable information is enhanced

Output 3 - Database of water pollution sources and river

water quality is developed

Output 4 - Capacity of interpreting the information for water

pollution control measures is enhanced

Output 5 - Necessary technical manuals and forms for

the EIA review are developed

Output 6 - Capacity of MONREC and EIA Report Review

Body on the EIA review is enhanced

Output 1< Inspection Procedure is standardized>

Questionnaire Survey

As a procedure of output (1)- JET, PCCD, WSD, ECD(Yangon)

and Resources and Environment Myanmar Co.,Ltd (REM)

implemented for questionnaire survey to 100 factories.

Among them, 25 factories analyze waste water sampling.

AdvantagesYCDC is the first experience to implement the water

environment and EIA System and will acquire the following

advantages;

Knowing the current situation of the River Water Quality

Analyzing waste water factories that directly disposed to

the rivers

Monitoring to waste water factories

Discharging waste water by using proper treatment and

conventional treatment

Enhancing Staff Capacity Building with advance

technology

Strengthening EIA System in Myanmar

Findings

To develop Laboratory facilities and devices

To analyze specific parameters

To strengthen law enforcements

To improve Awareness

Lack of inspection manual

Some factories discharged effluent wastewater

without proper treatment

Challenges

Increasing domestic and foreign investment

Population Growth and Pollution in Urban Areas

Coordination

Technical Support

Financial Support
