5. 1. Development Objective
• - Govt Regional Development
- Past Reports recommend site as
ideal
-ROI(ADB Report 2005)
- Investors Preference
2.Need Assessment

3. To acquire and utilize human, natural, and
financial assets
ROI PROJECT GOALS
8. • Facilitate agriculture growth
• Increase export :timber industry
• Improve opportunities: fishing
industry
• Increase employment
• Reduce internal migration
• Beneficial: tourism development
• Reducing the cost of consumer
goods.

Environmental impacts and mitigation
Measures
• Screening - potential impacts were categorized; defined as
being adverse, positive, or no impact, environmental and
social significance of the impacted area and the probability of
the impact actually occurring.
• Mitigation Measures:
• Avoiding the impact (e.g. realign a road to avoid a protected
area);
• Minimizing the impact (e.g. put tarps on trucks carrying
excavated material);
• Rectifying the impact (e.g. rehabilitate areas where
construction destroyed
• forests); or
• Compensating for the impact (e.g. providing financial
compensation for those who will lose land or structures).
Two

approach:

Mitigation through design

Economic Assessment
• The value of increased export earnings over 15 years are projected in Table 28.
The benefits are assumed to be constant after year 10; Agriculture
• First year projected=160 containers of additional exports, of which 50 will be taro.
• The estimated exports is $2.6 million, of which around $1.1 million is valued
added (direct addition to GDP).
• Over a 10 year period, the number of containers increases to over 1,000 the
estimated to $17.4 million and $7.4 in value added

• Reduced need to build new road
alignments and inter alia.
• reduced stress on marine parks
and forested areas.
• reduced need for land acquisition.
• possibly reduced safety risks on
selected rural roads.
• Reduced travel time to Labasa
• Increase in export trade – eg.
copra industry etc..
• Reduced Shipping Costs

COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS (10 YR Projection)
• Benefits =$10,385, 580
• Cost =$540,000
3.EIRR(economic internal rate if return) =18.1%
4.ENPV(Economic Net Present Value) (5%interest) =$13.7 million
5.B/C (5%interest) = 1.5
Refer table 32
VIABILITY OF PROJECT
25. Project presents no major
insurmountable impacts if
mitigation measures are
implemented
Project is viable
Project can help curb
rural urban drift

CONCLUSION
26. Public health
awareness on impacts
of contaminated
shorelines
Need for further
detailed researches
Strict monitoring for
implementation of to
mitigation measures

REFERENCE
Some existing developments are timber mill, copra mill
Chosen site has along list of significant social and environmental benefits
Project is the manifestation of a wider Govt Initiative
ADB – Borrower to fund TA to support the project
Ministry of Agriculture needs to prepare a comprehensive plan to develop the project
Currently the cost of transhipment within Fiji, from Vanua Levu to Suva, is almost equivalent to the cost of freight to New Zealand or Australia from Suva.
Savusavu Port (Valaga Bay) development is part of the broader Rural and Outer Islands Project of Fiji (“the ROI Project”).
Government's objectives of balanced regional development and distribution of economic opportunities to all parts of the Fiji Islands.
Existing Government Wharf in Savusavu Town wasn’t considered based on previous studies ROI Final Report (ADB November 2005a

1.People meaning those in the rural areas and outer island and those around project area
2. Increased opportunity for market access
Water- May need additional storage facilities eg reservoir
Resettlement issues of graves and villages.The question of responsibility on :
Purchasing of land
Resettlement of villages
Resttlement of graves
People are closely woven to their surroundings
- Uprooting people is a serious issue
Waste management – Present high faecal contamination along shore line
The largest risk item in any port development is the condition and strength parameters of the ground and foundations.
Risks allowance of 20% of cost estimate
The cost estimate has been prepared using the most recent and most applicable rates available, from New Zealand and from Fiji. These rates are considered to be appropriate for 2006
Sensitivity Index needs to be higher than 2.0 or higher before viability is considered sensitive.
Value adding only on ginger and coconut cream
Business houses and villages on site supported the project development
Villages not in support are not located at the site but are traditional I Qoliqoli owners
- No major insurmountable environmental impacts with construction and operation assuming that recommended mitigation measures are implemented
