This report represents the Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP) for the proposed Kariba Dam Rehabilitation Works, specifically the rehabilitation of the plunge pool and the spillway (hereafter referred to as ‘the Project’). This ESMP provides for environmental and social management, monitoring and reporting for the pre-rehabilitation and rehabilitation phases of the Project. Environmental and social management and monitoring for the ongoing operation and eventual decommissioning of the dam is not included in this ESMP, as it is assumed that this is included existing Standing Operations Procedures for managing the dam and reservoir.
