2. Project Definition, Concept and Scope
The proposed project needs to be clearly demarcated in terms of all its constituent sub-components. 1 (Several project DPRs specify only the “to-be-constructed” infrastructure component which does not represent the complete project) The project
concept comprises several sub-components /elements including:
2.1 Land
• Total quantum of land required and being provided for the project
• Confirmation that the required land is owned /already purchased by the ULB/parastatal; land title is to be clear and unencumbered.
2.2 Physical infrastructure components
( Please refer Annexure-1 for sector specific reference components)
The physical infrastructure of each project/DPR can be considered in terms of specific components. (component 1, component 2, component 3, …etc) These would be unique for each project and would also vary across sectors. For reference purposes, a wide range of sector specific project components have been provided in Annexure.1. The design, detailed engineering and drawings as applicable for the components are to be included in this section These project components can also serve as a reference for “packaging of contracts” either individually, in parts, or through combinations.
2.3 Environmental compliance/protection measures/improvement measures
• Environment impact assessment
• Environment management plan
2.4 Rehabilitation and Resettlement
2.5 Specialised procured services for design, independent supervision, and quality assurance
2.6 Other information
• Details of surveys and investigations required to be carried out ( site, customer, etc)
• Assessment of requirements related to utilities shifting
• List of clearances and agencies from which these are to be obtained
• Disaster related risk assessment and broad countermeasures (including earthquake/other natural disaster resistant design of structures)
