The vegetation of Nigeria is determined by climate, in particular by the rainfall and the severity of the dry season. Farming, fires and soil also profoundly affect it. The following main vegetation zones can be distinguished:1. The forest zone (mangrove forest and coastal vegetation, freshwater swamp forest and lowland rain forest), a belt 50 to 250 km wide along the coast corresponding to rainfall generally higher than 1 600 mm, exceeding 2 500 mm in the delta and along the eastern coast (3 600 mm, for instance, at Forcados in the delta); 2. The derived savanna zone with a 1 150 to 1 500 mm rainfall and a 3-months dry season, bordering the forest zone on the north; 3. The savanna zones, including:- The southern Guinea zone (1 150 to 1 500 mm, 4 to 5 months dry season);- The median and northern Guinea zones (1 000 to 1 250 mm, 5 to 6 months dry season);- The Sudan zone (500 to 1 500 mm, 5 to 7 months dry season), which can be subdivided in a northern, median and southern Sudan zones;- The Sahel zone (250 to 500 mm, 7 to 8 months dry season).The savanna zones extend in this order from south to north, with the Sahel zone covering only approximately 1% of the total area of the country along the north-eastern border with Niger. However with climatic change, this area could become much more important than presently Altitude is a dominant factor for vegetation only on higher elevations of the Bauchi plateau and in the mountainous area along the central section of the Cameroon border.

The main coastal areas identified were:
• F1. Coastal mangroves, including the Niger Delta, the Rio del Rey, the Baie du Cameroun and the zone from Port Gentil to Kouliou.• F2. Coastal estuaries, including the Ogooué Delta and Rio Muni: important for their high productivity and support of migratory birds (mudflats) and marine turtles (beaches). The beaches south of Mayumba in Gabon and the island of Corsico are of high importance for turtles.• F3. Niger Delta and coastal swamp forest.• F4. Bay of Cameroon Freshwater Swamps.• F6. Lower Congo River mouth and swamps• F7. Atlantic Coastal Lagoons, including the lagoons of south Gabon and Congo, often surrounded by mangroves and swamp forest.• F8. Ogooué River: The Ogooué delta is one of the largest, most intact and least well-known mangrove and freshwater swamp systems in Africa, containing a unique assemblage of plants and animals.• F24. Lower Kouliou to Sunda.• F43. Mangroves / Lagoon near Porto Alegre (São Tomé).

Notes on the ranking significance used in prioritizing environmental problems in the Niger DeltaFor the environmental significance, long-term, large-scale and severely disruptive environmental problems are ranked higher than short-term, local, and moderately disruptive anthropogenic activities. Health significance is similarly ranked, with stressors that impact large populations or cause substantial direct health impacts ranked higher than those with smaller scale or indirect health effects. The effect on economic productivity is included in the evaluation for both health and environment.Potential future environmental benefits are an estimate of the present value of all future benefits of mitigating the problem. Consequently, interventions with short-term benefits (e.g., within five years) are ranked higher than interventions which require longer periods for benefits to manifest themselves (e.g., more than five years). The benefits are compared with the present value of intervention costs to derive an estimate of the net present value of addressing the issue.In establishing the overall priorities, equal weight is given to each of the criteria. Depending on the magnitude of the issue it is given a rating of High (3), Moderate (2), or Low (1) FOR EACH CRITERION. The overall priority assessment follows this ranking as well. To determine the overall priority, the sum of rankings of the environmental and health parameters is added to the net intervention benefits (benefits-costs). From this calculation, the overall priority (OP) is rated as High (OP 5), Moderate (2<OP<5) or Low (OP 2). A Low ranking does not mean that the problem is unimportant, only that it is a less significant problem than the higher ranked issues. The ranking provides a critical initial step for formulating policies and programs to address the most important environmental problems. Given the weak information base, the framework and the priorities should be refined as additional information and values are incorporated.A further note: Water contamination from oil activities includes only oil pollution and other aquatic impacts. Other significant concerns associated with oil activities, including deforestation, forest degradation, loss of biodiversity, gas flaring emission, and solid wastes are incorporated into other categories.Adapted from: Moffat, D. and O.

Administrative annex 6: Terms of reference
Pre-feasibility Study to Review Country Environmental Profile of Nigeria
1. BackgroundThe EC is preparing its Country Support Paper (CSP) for Nigeria for the years 2008 – 2012 which includes a National Indicative Plan for the 10th EDF, for the same period. As part of the CSP preparation, the environmental situation of Nigeria must be assessed and possible future EC-interventions in the sector be identified.The Niger Delta is formed by the riverine area facing the gulf of Guinea formed by the delta of the Niger river, where most of the country’s oil and gas production takes place. Given its poverty indicators, its economic importance and past EC support, the Niger delta has been identified as area of interest for EC support. Also the substantial environmental problems, in part caused by the oil and gas extraction and high biodiversity make environmental interventions potentially beneficial.The Nigerian Government has prepared an Environmental Profile of Nigeria prepared in 1999 upon the establishment of the Federal Ministry of Environment, which has been updated in May 2006. It identifies, assesses and developed strategies and policies to address environmental issues in Nigeria, but does not provide an overview of the donor involvement in the sector. The Country Environmental Profile includes information on the national environmental outlook focused on key environmental challenges, responses to environmental problems in Nigeria, current policies; legislative and institutional framework and recommended strategies to address environmental problems in Nigeria.In July 2007 the National Environmental Standards and Regulations Enforcement Agency (NESREA) was established, which has the mandate to ensure the enforcement of environmental standards in the country, while the Oil spillage clearance office National Oil Spillage Damage and Regulation Agency (NOSDRA) is responsible for environmental issues related to the oil extraction industry.In 2006, the Niger Delta Development Commission completed the Niger Delta Development Plan, which was adopted by the Government in 2007 and which formulates a blueprint for the development of the Niger Delta area.Since the resumption of Development cooperation in 1999, the EC support has had only limited funding for environment specific actions, mostly through support to NGOs through the Environmental budget line. Other donors have funded environmental interventions.
2. ObjectiveThe objective of the pre-feasibility study is formulate an environmental assessment of Nigeria for the Country Strategy Paper (2008-2013) and identify areas of possible interventions for EC support under the 10th EDF, of with specific emphasis on the Niger delta1
3. ResultsThe pre-feasibility study will include the following components:1. A review and assessment of the Environmental Profile of Nigeria prepared in 1999, updated in May 2006 and of other environmental documents available.2. A review of the Government environmental legislation and policies and institutions responsible for environmental protection and management, including those at Federal and State levels.3. An overview of past and ongoing projects international co-operation in the environment sector, including that by the EC, as well as by national and international CSOs.4. An environmental assessment as required for the EC-Nigeria Country Strategy Paper (the format of which will be provided to the consultants)5. Recommendations and guidelines or criteria for mainstreaming environmental concerns in other co-operation areas identified in the draft Country Strategy Paper and National Indicative Programme6. Recommendations, if any, for a number specific EC intervention in the environment sector, with special emphasis to the Niger delta region. The recommendations should also include an indicative budget for the proposed interventions.
1 The Niger delta is situated in 9 States in southern Nigeria, namely Abia, Akwa Ibom, Bayelsa, Cross River, Delta, Edo, Imo, Ondo, and Rivers

[4. Issues to be assessedThe following issues should be assessed:
4.1 The state of the environmentThis Chapter should identify the state and trends of key environmental resources or components in the country, including (as relevant) see attached table 2 in annex 2.Pressures explaining the main negative trends should be identified, as well as pressures contributing to global environmental problems, using table 3 in the annex as a guiding checklist.Environmental trends should be assessed with regard to their social and economic impact, including:- Declines in economic production or productivity (e.g. agriculture, forestry, fisheries);- Threats to human health;- Human exposure to environmental disasters (e.g. floods, drought);- Loss of livelihoods and economic safeguard- Impact on poverty, differentiated impact on women and men, impact on vulnerable groups (including
children and indigenous peoples);- Sustainability of resource use;- Cultural values.This chapter should lead to the identification of problems, described in terms of situations or trends that are undesirable due to their current socioeconomic consequences (e.g. falling productivity, health problems, natural risks, and social crises), their future consequences (e.g. decline in natural resources, cumulative pollution) or their contribution to global environmental problems.If appropriate the consultant could refer to appropriate environmental indicators in order to establish a consistent basis both for comparisons among countries and for monitoring changes in the studied country.Attention should be paid to the MDG 7 indicators, and specific indicators related to the particularenvironmental issues of the country.If appropriate, the information could be organised according to eco-geographical subdivisions with the scale (regional, national, local) of the issues indicated.
4.2. Environmental policy, legislation and institutionsA brief description and review should be provided of the strengths and weaknesses of the following aspects, with their associated evaluation criteria given for guidance attached as annex to these terms of reference.The analysis should identify potential institutional/policy/regulatory causes of environmental pressures.
4.3. Integration of environmental into the main policies and sectorsThe assessment should examine the integration of environmental in the overall development policy and sectors and areas that have key linkages with environmental which might be identified for EC support, taking into account the focal areas of the current CSP. This section should examine the Environmental Profile of Nigeria updated in May 2006.The Environmental Profile provides a brief description of the environmental situation and recommendations for intervention in the Niger Delta and response so far by Government to rescue the situation. The main legislation and institutional arrangements and measures of the sector which address environmental issues, especially those identified in section 4.1 should be examined.
4.4. EU co-operation with the Country from an environmental perspectiveThis section should review the past and current experience relating to development co-operation interventions with specific environmental objectives as well as the integration of environment into other co-operation areas; including the application of environmental integration procedures (preparation of SEA or EIA in EC funded programmes/projects). Where information is available the environmental impacts or potential risks of EU cooperation should be identified for the benefit of future programmes. The results of existing evaluations/reviews should be incorporated and lessons drawn for the future. The review should cover both geographical and thematic programmes.
4.5. Co-operation funded by other donors from an environmental perspectiveThis section should review the past and current involvement of other donors and their experience in the Country, and include a list of recent and planned projects/programmes with an environmental focus or anticipated impact. Co-ordination mechanisms between donors and the EC with respect to the environment should be assessed.

5. Conclusions and recommendationsThe key aspects of the state and trends of environment in Nigeria, especially in the Niger delta region including policy/regulatory and institutional constraints and challenges, should be clearly stated. These may be presented in a matrix, crossing environmental concerns and the main sectors and policies.Based on comprehensive assessment of the available information and on consultations with stakeholders, recommendations should be made on how the European Commission and Government can better mainstream the environment into the next Country Strategy Paper, taking into account current CSP and any pre-identified options for the next one, including the anticipated focal sectors.Recommendations should address (but not necessary be limited to) the following:1 Recommendations concerning the response strategies based on environmental considerations. These recommendations should show how best to address the main challenges identified by the Country Environmental Profile. This might be done by selecting environment as a non-focal sector and or more frequently, through environmental safeguards in other areas. These may include, for example proposal for institutional strengthening and capacity building (including the enhancement of regulatory framework and enforcement capacities.2 Proposals for environmentally relevant indicators to be used in the National indicative programme.3 Propose a modality for an integrated environment projects of between 5 – 10 Million EUR relevant to the Niger Delta Region of Nigeria.4 This proposals should look at the possibility of addressing biodegradation and biodiversity issues at the micro-level i.e. community level initiativesIndividual recommendations should be clearly articulated and linked to the problems to be solved and grouped according to the sector concerned or institutional stakeholder. The relative priority of the recommendations and an indication of the challenges to their implementations should be given.Any constraints to preparing the profile resulting from limited information should be described.
