The component was under the supervision of DLSE and covered the following subcomponents; Coastal, Environmental and Institutional Services (C1.01 & D4) Aerial Photography (C2.01) Geographical Information System (C2.02) 2. 0 Subcomponents 2.1 CEIS The Samoa CEIS sub-component primarily focused on developing a CIM Strategy and Plans to improve coastal infrastructure management. The contract was awarded to Beca International Consultants Ltd in April 2000 and the total scope of the original contract was completed in March 2002. The contract was extended to August 15th 2002 to complete an extra 10 CIM Plans. P P The activities involved in this contract were as follows: 1. Coastal Hazard Zone mapping 2. Coastal Infrastructure Management Strategy 3. Coastal Infrastructure Management Plans 4. Coastal/Environmental Advisory Services 5. DLSE Institutional Review 6. Interim Codes of Environmental Practice 7. GIS Specifications The CHZ Mapping identified and quantified the significant CEHZ and CFHZ from the sea, as well as CLHZ. The entire coastline of Samoa was mapped. During fieldwork all accessible parts of Samoa’s coastline were observed, field data gathered, and anecdotal observations recorded from village interviews. The CHZ Mapping showed that erosion and flooding from the sea are the most widespread coastal hazards on ‘Upolu, Savai’i and Manono, and coastal landslip the most widespread on Apolima and the Aleipata Islands. CEHZs cover an average of 76% of the coastlines of Savai’i, ‘Upolu and Manono. CLHZs cover an average of 89% of the coastlines of Apolima and Aleipata Islands, compared to an average of 14% of Savai’i and ‘Upolu. In addition a CHD was set up for documentation and monitoring. iv COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT PROECT (1) The CIM Strategy is a national policy document, which outlines visions, goals, policies and objectives for management of coastal infrastructure. The Strategy has as its central vision ‘Resilience – Coastal Infrastructure and Communities Resilient to Natural Hazards’. To be resilient is to be adaptive, responsive and quick to recover so that communities are environmentally, socially and economically sustainable. The objectives and policies outlined in the Strategy are separated into six management themes: 1. National Principles for Management 2. Local Principles for Management 3. Information, Evaluation and Monitoring 4. Education and Awareness 5. Management and Use of Land and Resources 6. Intervention Actions The CIM Plans provide guidance on the local level implementation of the principles and directions of the Strategy. The aim of the CIM Plan is to help communities and government to improve resilience by identifying preferred management actions and solutions. The pilot economic analysis methodology was also reviewed which forms part of the planning process for possible options via a cost benefit analysis approach. Not all the solutions may be actioned immediately but the plan will ensure that issues and options are identified for the long-term improvement of resilience of both infrastructure and communities. The component had prepared CIM Plans for 15 Districts selected based on the CSI from the CHD and the CHM. Consultations involve the pulenuu, 20-30 persons per village and by the time all approximately 300 villages are complete, about 10,000 citizens (6% of the population) will have been directly involved. Note that this is about 90% of Resource Managers in the communities. The CEAS provided guidance and training to staff of DLSE and MoW involved with coastal works and environmental management on such topics as: Coastal processes Evaluation of alternatives Economic analysis Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Monitoring and mitigation of effects Use of current and draft environmental legislation Implementation of the Interim Codes of Environmental Practice The CIM Strategy and CIM Plans The Institutional Review identified that capacity constraints and the distribution of resources within DLSE are such that the Department has difficulty meeting it’s current objectives. There are already competing demands at a divisional level and intake of v COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT PROECT (1) additional activities is proposed. Planning (at departmental and divisional levels), restructuring and outsourcing of some activities is proposed to refocus DLSE’s activities and enable objectives to be met. Organisational Templates have been developed to show a possible staging for restructuring DLSE up to 2003. These templates are intended as a catalyst for discussion. The Interim Codes of Environmental Practice (COEPs) focus on road planning, design, construction and maintenance, and associated coastal protection works. The COEPs are set out to ensure that minimum environmental standards are met and that appropriate procedures are undertaken to reduce the environmental impact of various activities related to road works and services. The COEPs are considered interim, as they need to be fully reviewed in relation to Samoa’s practices and legislation. The GIS Specifications outline the findings of a GIS needs analysis and includes a technical specification, based on the findings of the needs analysis. The technical specification recommends software and hardware to be procured for DLSE. The report addresses only Stage 1 of the procurement proposed for DLSE and allows for the establishment of a LAN based system in DLSE’s Mapping, Surveying and Plan Draughting and Examination Sections. 2.2 Geographical Information The contract was awarded to Airesearch Mapping Limited Australia in August 1999 and the total scope of the original contract was completed in August 2001. The need for new topographical data to support the management of infrastructure was considered important. The main targeted deliverables are as follows; 1:50,000 orthophotos with contours 1:5,000 orthophotos with and without contours Topographical Maps of Samoa at 1:50,000 GIS Data at 1:20,000 Scale In addition to hard copy Topographical Maps, electronic copy of Othophotos and GIS data were generated and received on CD in Mapinfo format. A Desktop computer with MAP Info software was purchased to access, analyse and print these orthophotos and GIS layers for the CHM work. GIS layers provided include; contours, buildings, cultivation, hydrology, land use, localities, roads, relief, off shore, structure, text and vegetation. 2.3 Information Management System vi COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT PROECT (1) This component had established GIS Capability and Networking with MoW and DLSE. The contract was awarded to CSL, Apia, Samoa on May 5th 2002. P P The procurement provided hardware, software, data collection equipment i.e. surveying, communication equipment, measuring equipment and map production peripherals based on GIS Needs Assessment done by BECA International for DLSE and OPUS for MoW. In addition, service was provided including setting up, installation and equipment configuration and training on the CAD, GIS and Microsoft Products software. Training was provided for both PWD and DLSE staff. The GIS training was extended to other agencies to take advantage of the instructor’s presence here. It was an added indication of agencies moving in to GIS for collection and management of their required data which is seen sustainable given some compatibility through the common software that was used in the training which was MAP Info and the networking among operators who can exchange knowledge and issues to such the tool and its appropriate application to Samoa. Having CSL as the winning bidder was the first time a local firm had engaged in procuring GIS system and software. The delivery of required goods was timely receipt. DLSE envisage that this involvement of CSL will helped a lot in promoting GIS as a tool. In addition, CSL should now be part of a wider GIS network where we can receive updates on the technology and other developments on applications. With a knowledge of what is now available within the Implementing agencies covered in this procurement, CSL will have to be prepared to meet maintenance, training and support service for the system which in turn strengthens their company GIS profile. 3.0 Sub-component Integration The Coastal component of IAMP-1 contribute to the overall aim of improved coastal infrastructure management. The CIM Strategy and Plans are the primary means of coastal infrastructure management and all other components feed into the Strategy and Plans as follows: Production of Aerial Photos both in Orthphotos and electronic formats with contours overlayed provided good comparison with old aerial Photos to identify the rates of change along the coastline using GIS. In addition, these orthophotos assisted in the collection of anecdotal data through interviews with communities. GIS Specification: Conducts and inventory of available GIS capability to ensure a system to be procured is appropriate to the needs of the agencies as well as being compatible with existing systems and information available with other agencies. Establishment of GIS Capability with DLSE and PWD for the management of the information for coastal infrastructure management CHZ Mapping: Utilises orthophotos and combining technical surveying and anectodal data from community interviews to delineate Samoa’s coastal hazards. vii COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT PROECT (1) Interim COEPs: Provided guidelines to recognize environmentally sustainable operating procedures and practice in coastal infrastructure development CEA Services: An ongoing requirement to enhanced capacity for DLSE, PWD and private sectors in coastal infrastructure management DLSE Institutional Review: to sustain and be able to develop and strengthen DLSE’s capability for coastal management and planning. In addition, to reflect it as an important activity of the departments mandate. 4.0 Recommendations; 4.1 CEIS The 21 sites selected by DLSE for monitoring should be followed up and continually updated. The CHZ maps should be updated as appropriate. It is recommended that a decision as to whether to update the CHZ maps be made on the basis of a 5 yearly review of monitoring information. The CHZ maps should be updated after the occurrence of significant events such as a Class 4 or 5 tropical cyclone, tsunami, landslide, large earthquakes etc. More detailed (third order) CHZ mapping should be undertaken for sites where significant development is proposed. The numerous implementation methods, other than the CIM Plans, specified in the CIM Strategy that are required to achieve the policies given in the Strategy, should also be implemented. CIM Strategy background Report 6 provides a preliminary guide for implementation of the CIM Strategy, having regard to priorities, realistic programmes and budgetary constraints. Develop and investigate the possible solutions identified in the CIM Plans in more detail. The next step forward should be the development of a CIM Program based on the outcome of the CIM Plan for the development of prioritized projects. The projects should identify preparation requirements, clearance requirements; approximate cost estimates, financing sources, implementation arrangements and timing. These matters are the responsibility of the partner departments and corporations identified in the Implementation Guidelines. The CIM Plan process identifies issues of concern not directly related to Coastal Hazards that if acted upon would improve the resilience of these communities. These issues are noted in the CIM Plans and should be picked up by the relevant authorities as programming permits. Such issues include the provision of a sustainable domestic water supply and flooding from inland areas affecting roads, bridges, houses and other infrastructure. viii COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT PROECT (1) It is important to recognize that the CIM Plan is one of a number of tools and Plans that give effect to the CIM Strategy to improve resilience. Consideration should be given to other plans for land-use management, Integrated Coastal Zone Management and also the existing plans for fisheries management and where they fit in the management of assets, resources and activities for the whole of Samoa. The CEA Services training notes are quite extensive and distributing additional copies and updating/maintaining existing copies would represent a significant time and cost burden on whatever organization ultimately looks after them. It would be much better to mount these files on an internet web page, so that they can be downloaded by people who want further information or who need to update or complete their files. This would allow ready access to the public sector also. It may also be possible to put other related documents here too, such as exemplars of consent applications and design reports and the economic analysis spreadsheet. As part of the CEA Services, a Network Group was established, comprising representatives from several government departments and corporations. Networking amongst this group would allow those people with environmental responsibilities to maintain contact to share ideas and suggestions. Suggested actions relating to this group include appointing a person to maintain the email group, updating email group and sending to all participants and using the email or users group to update all copies of documents as required. The CEAS training was well received with participants requesting extra sessions on the following topics. The following suggestions are made for future training topics, 1. Economic Analysis (Revision) – as development proceeds, the topic of economic analysis will require additional revisions sessions at its application has a direct result on the outcome of the CIM plans. 2. Revetment Design (Revision) – There was a need from MoW to provide revision sessions on this topic during the last training visit. 3. EIA workshops – Any further training on this topic should ideally be based on actual EIAs prepared by participants since the last training sessions. The immediate priority for Institutional Strengthening is to build capacity in the area of Divisional Planning. A Consultant should be commissioned to act in a mentoring/coaching role to assist Assistant Directors in preparing detailed Divisional Plans. A longer term, robust framework for DLSE’s operations should then be developed, to consolidate the capacity gains made by in the short term. Activities are proposed in the areas of Legislative Review, Human Resource ix COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT PROECT (1) Management, Accounting and Information Technology, Customer Services, External Services and Training. Stage 2 of the COEP development, that is the preparation of a complete set of codes referenced to legislation, should be undertaken and should include a legislation review after consultation with stakeholders. Consideration should be given to developing additional COEPs, relating to activities other than road planning, design, construction and maintenance. For example, COEPs relating to construction of hard structural coastal management options other than seawalls and COEPs relating to sandmining. The preparation of additional COEPs could be used to enhance coastal infrastructure management, as identified in the CIM Strategy. Stage 2 of the GIS procurement should proceed. This stage will establish an Internet/Intranet system that will allow increased access to GIS information via a Wide Area Network (WAN) and via the Internet. Stage 2 should include procurement of hardware and software for other sections in DLSE and training specific to the software and hardware purchased under this stage. Arrangement should be made to capture cadastral and land registry data in electronic format for use in the GIS. Further investigation of these activities, including outsourcing potential, is recommended. 4.2 Geographical Information It is recommended that these topographical maps be updated every 5 years. In the event of a natural disaster i.e. cyclone reaching cyclonic or hurricane force winds, a complete aerial survey should be conducted straight after the cyclone season to map changes that had taken place between pre and post cyclone. In light of the discrepancies observed between aerial photography and GPS data collected for the RAMS under MoW, a specific study into the cause should be conducted. This study is under negotiations and its vital that a solution is identified for future aerial mapping as well as the use of GPS technology. The arrangement of selling GIS data should continue in particular for spatial referenced electronic copies. It should be reminded that, GIS technology is continue to grow and the system would need to look after itself in light of this overwhelming growth in Software and hardware development and requirement. In addition data capture is expensive especially when the department is prepared to update topographical maps. 4.3 Information Management System x COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT PROECT (1) Information management is critical for sound decision making. The use of GIS as a tool to catalyze decision formulation is well recognizes. In addition, its capacity to integrate spatial and non-spatial data should be widely promoted across all levels of decision making from all stakeholders to communities in particular areas of common interest. GIS technology is still in its infant stage thus a need for a well-integrated approach. GPS work carried out for RAMS discussed some discrepancies observed between aerial photography and GPS Data. IDA and the PSC had recognize the need to investigate the issue and efforts are underway for an independent study. Hoping that the study will assist in documenting a common platform for GIS and GPS to ensure data exchange and overlaying between users matches and be able to collectively analyze. In turn, it will assist future work. Institutionalizing GIS is vital for the sustainability of the tool and information needs of the institution. Some training was offered as part of this project but specific needs and application would require specialize training. These trainings should be conducted in-country so to maximize participation thus minimize problems when a few key staff left for greener pastures as GIS operators are very limited to match its growing demand. GIS should be an integral part of any organizational structure that required such. Budgets and the required resources should be allocated. Focus should be on awareness and training to bring everyone to level with their particular role and need for the GIS. Now that we have GIS capability in place with MoW and DLSE, efforts should now be on developing integrated systems. The MoW had put together the RAMS system with DLSE running the Coastal Hazard Database both as inventory systems developed by the Project. A wider system that would encourage a wider participation and use will be the SAMLIS (Samoa Land Information System). There had been initial discussion on this system and had been submitted to look at under IAMP-2. Data exchange, standards, availability and production will always be issues like in any place. To assist in resolving, a GIS User Group for Samoa should be setup. The group should have representatives from agencies who have need for such system with the main objective to monitor GIS activities in Samoa. GIS activities of each agency can be presented through meetings on a monthly basis to avoid data duplication leading to reinventing the wheel, which is not cost effective and time consuming. Opportunities to update on GIS developments will be critical. During this early stage of GIS development and appreciation, a few of key players can initiate the user group with the intention of expanding it to other agencies and institutions when their need is realized and discussed. In addition, regional organization and institutions like SPREP, FAO, UNDP, UNESCO, WMO, WHO and USP should participate in the group. There affiliation and experience with other member countries will help in reviewing efforts where see appropriate. xi COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT PROECT (1) Table of Contents 1 Introduction ........................................................................................................................................1 1.1 1.2 2 Overall Project Summary ...................................................................................................................2 2.1 3 Outline of Task ..............................................................................................................31 Summary of Process and Outcomes...........................................................................32 Recommendations for Further Work .........................................................................35 DLSE Institutional Review ...............................................................................................................36 7.1 7.2 7.3 8 Outline of Task ..............................................................................................................25 Summary of Process and Outcomes...........................................................................26 Recommendations for Further Work .........................................................................30 Coastal/Environmental Advisory Services.....................................................................................31 6.1 6.2 6.3 7 Outline of Task ..............................................................................................................20 Summary of Process and Outcomes...........................................................................22 Recommendations for Further Work .........................................................................25 Coastal Infrastructure Management Plans .....................................................................................25 5.1 5.2 5.3 6 Outline of Task ................................................................................................................7 Summary of Process and Outcomes.............................................................................8 Recommendations for Further Work .........................................................................20 Coastal Infrastructure Management Strategy ................................................................................20 4.1 4.2 4.3 5 The Project........................................................................................................................2 Coastal Hazard Zone Mapping ..........................................................................................................7 3.1 3.2 3.3 4 Purpose of the Report .....................................................................................................1 Structure of the Report ...................................................................................................1 Outline of Task ..............................................................................................................36 Summary of Process and Outcomes...........................................................................36 Recommendations for Further Work .........................................................................40 Interim Codes of Environmental Practice ......................................................................................41 xii COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT INFRASTRUCTURE ASSET MANAGEMENT PROECT (1) 8.1 8.2 8.3 9 Outline of Task ..............................................................................................................41 Summary of Process and Outcomes...........................................................................41 Recommendations for Further Work .........................................................................42 GIS System Specifications ..............................................................................................................43 9.1 9.2 9.3 Outline of Task ..............................................................................................................43 Summary of Process and Outcomes...........................................................................44 Recommendations for Further Work .........................................................................45 10.

The Final Report also recommends additional work that will further enhance coastal infrastructure management in Samoa. While the implementation of the project activities were under the various contract, the report will try and link the activities in a way that provides a reporting framework not only to see linkages between activities but will provide an assessment approach for monitoring and management. 1.2 Structure of the Report The report combines reports from contractors together with CPM Monthly Reports. It comprises the following sections: Section 1: Introduction – outlines the purpose and structure of this report. Section 2: Overall Project Component Summary – describes the Coastal Component and the Reporting Framework Sections 3 to 11 – each section refers to a separate task and gives: An outline of each task including key activities. A summary of the process followed and outcomes of the component; and Recommendations for further work. Section 12: Integration of Components– discusses how each of the project components relate to each other, focussing on the relationship to the CIM Strategy and Plans in particular. Section 13: Key Progress Indicators /Financial Section 14.0 Conclusions 1 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT 2 Overall Project Component Summary 2.1 The Project Component Infrastructure Asset Management Programme IAMP-1: Meeting Vital Priorities and Strengthening Management. The IAMP is funded under an International Development Association credit. The implementing agencies for IAMP-1 are: Department of Lands, Surveys and Environment (DLSE) Public Works Department (PWD); Samoa Airport Authority; and Ministry of Transport / Public Safety. The IAMP is being directed by a IAMP-PSC, comprising representatives from participating departments within Government, and operating under guidelines from the Government of Samoa and the World Bank. It is being undertaken as a series of component contracts, managed by PCM’s, with overall project co-ordination by a PMU (refer Figure 1). 2.1.2 Coastal Infrastructure Management Component is implemented under the coordination of the Department of Lands, Surveys and Environment. IAMP-1 for this particular component targeted a collective output for the initiation of environmentally and socially sustainable management of coastal infrastructure. Overall the component considers strengthening the management of coastal infrastructures through collection of relevant biophysical and socio-economic data along the coastal areas from aerial surveys and anecdotal from interviews with communities and government agencies and corporations that will be analyzed by tools like GIS and Databases to generate the CHZM that will quantify and materialize the development of a National Coastal Infrastructure Management Strategy. The duration of the work will allow for developing Coastal Management Plans as the first step in testing the validity of the strategy at the district and village level. Training for relevant agencies on coastal processes and works will be carried out through the scope of work. Furthermore, to ensure the long-term consideration of this issue, an Institutional Review will be carried out for DLSE to ensure relevant reforms are considered for the inclusion of coastal 2 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT infrastructure management and decision-making as part of the core activities and the organizational structure of the department. 2.1.3 Subcomponents 2.1.4 Coastal, Environmental and Institutional Services The CEIS Subcomponent originally comprised four components of the IAMP: Task No. C1.01 - Coastal Infrastructure Management (including the CIM Strategy and Plans); Task No. C1.02 – Coastal Hazard Zone Mapping; Task No. C1.03 - Coastal / Environmental Advisory Services; and Task No. D4.01 - DLSE Institutional Review.

The purpose of Stage I was to test the methodology proposed for CHZ Mapping. Stage II: Covered the remaining 75% of the coastline, with fieldwork undertaken from September to October 2000. The purpose of Stage II was to complete the CHZ mapping, using the methodology confirmed in Stage I. Dr Jeremy Gibb (Coastal Management Consultancy Ltd) undertook the CHZ Mapping fieldwork as a sub-consultant to Beca. DLSE counterparts assisted Dr. Gibb throughout the fieldwork. James Atherton (sub-consultant to Beca) undertook the GIS work associated with preparing the CHZ maps. The deliverables produced under the CHZ Mapping component are listed in Table 1. The key deliverable, which is summarised in Sections 3.2 and 3.3, is the CHZ Mapping Final Report. Table 1 CHZ Mapping Component Deliverables COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Deliverable CHZ Mapping Final Report CHZ Mapping Stage I Report – Final * CHZ Mapping Stage II Report – Final * Coastal Hazards Database – MS Access Version Coastal Hazards Database Users Guide CHZ Maps for all of Samoa 3.2 Date June 2001 December 2000 April 2001 September 2001 August 2001 Still underway Summary of Process and Outcomes Like most island nations in the Southwest Pacific Ocean, Samoa is, and will continue to be, subject to significant adverse effects from coastal hazards from time to time. Fieldwork during this study between 22 May and 20 October 2000 identified and quantified the significant coastal hazards of erosion and flooding from the sea, and coastal landslip. These hazards occur to a great or lesser degree around the entire 573km-long coastlines of the large islands, Savai’i and 'Upolu, and the small islands of Manono, Apolima, Nu’utele, Nu’ulua, Namua and Fanuatapu. Stage I CHZ Mapping fieldwork was completed between 22 May and 9 July 2000 and Stage II CHZ Mapping between 9 August and 20 October 2000. During fieldwork all accessible parts of the 573km-long coastlines were observed, field data gathered, and anecdotal observations recorded from village interviews. At all times the field party comprised 3 to 5 personnel, 2 from Coastal Management Consultancy Ltd and 1-3 Samoan counterpart staff from DLSE. The major achievements of the study are summarized in Table 2. Thirteen Samoan counterparts were involved in gathering data, including 347-recorded interviews at 85% of the coastal villages of Samoa and measurements at 276 representative Stations. The entire 573km-long coastlines of the 8 islands of Samoa were mapped and 120 CHZ maps produced at 1:5000 Scale. For each of the 276 Stations, which provided the framework for CHZ assessment, a CHDB was produced with CSIs potentially ranging from Very Low to Very High Sensitivity to physical hazards. An achievement not recorded in Table 2 was significant capacity building through on-site training of the 13 Samoan Counterpart staff involved. CSIs were calculated from 8 physical variables at each of the 276 CHDB Stations. In total, 65% of the Stations were found to have High CSIs, 20% Medium CSIs, 11% Very High CSIs, and 4% Low CSIs. No Stations recorded Very Low CSIs. The distribution of CSIs in Samoa is illustrated in Figure 2. The CHZs adopted for this study included: Areas Sensitive to Coastal Hazards (ASCH) – refer Figure 3 and Figure 4; Coastal Erosion Hazard Zone (CEHZ) – refer Figure 5 and Figure 6 Coastal Flood Hazard Zone (CFHZ) – refer Figure 7 and Figure 8 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Coastal Landslip Hazard Zone (CLHZ) - refer Figure 9 and Figure 10 The lengths of the coastline and areas of land covered by the 4 types of CHZ (2000 Samoa CHZs) are listed in Table 3. shows erosion and flooding from the sea are the most widespread coastal hazards on Upolu, Savai’i and Manono, and coastal landslip the most widespread on Apolima and the Aleipata Islands. For CEHZs coastal erosion was quantified by comparing the relative positions of the 1954 and 1999 shorelines on a Geographic Information System (GIS) and allowance made for erosion from local relative sea-level rise. CEHZs cover an average of 76% of the coastlines of Savai’i, Upolu and Manono (Table 3). For CLHZs, coastal landslip was identified in the field and from vertical aerial photographs made between 1954 and 1999. CLHZs cover an average of 89% of the coastlines of Apolima and Aleipata Islands compared to an average of 14% of Savai’i and Upolu (Table 3). Table 3 For CFHZs, flooding from the sea was quantified by measuring storm tide penetration inland observed by villagers during catastrophic Tropical Cyclones in 29-31 January 1966, 2-5 February 1990 “Ofa” and 6-10 December 1991 “Val”. The effects of tsunami, sea-level rise and land submergence were also taken into account along with a safety factor. CFHZs cover an average of 93% of the coastlines of Savai’i, Upolu and Manono (Table 3). ASCHs were used for areas where there were significant coastal access limitations and a lack of data typically on Savai’i. ASCHs encompass the range of potential erosion, flooding and landslip are very much on the side of caution. The CHZs, CHDB and CSIs assessed in this study have been incorporated electronically into DLSE’s computer based GIS. The 276 CHDB Stations surveyed in this study provide the basis for monitoring the effects of coastal hazards from time to time especially after the occurrence of Class 4-5 tropical cyclones. In April 2002, DLSE counterparts revisited 21 sites they selected for monitoring. Results had analyzed and will update the CHZ Database for those particular sites. The 2000 Samoa CHZs should be consulted for all coastal planning, management and engineering projects and strategies in Samoa.

The key recommendations for further work are: Monitoring should be undertaken at sites selected from the CSI stations used in the CHZ mapping exercise. The results of the monitoring would provide information for use in reviewing the CHZ maps at some stage in the future, or for undertaking more detailed CHZ mapping at sites of specific interest. The CHZ maps should be updated as appropriate. It is recommended that a decision as to whether to update the CHZ maps be made on the basis of a 5 yearly review of monitoring information. The CHZ maps should be updated after the occurrence of significant events such as a Class 4 or 5 tropical cyclone, tsunami, landslide, large earthquakes etc. More detailed (third order) CHZ mapping should be undertaken for sites where significant development is proposed. 4 Coastal Infrastructure Management Strategy 4.1 Outline of Task There were three distinct phases in the preparation of the CIM Strategy, as illustrated in Figure 11: Discussion Document preparation and consultation CIM Strategy Consultation Draft preparation and consultation CIM Strategy finalisation and Cabinet submission 20 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT CIM STRATEGY DISCUSSION DOCUMENT Jul / Aug ‘00 Aug / Sept ‘00 CONSULTATION Sept / Oct ‘00 CIM STRATEGY CONSULTATION DRAFT November ‘00 CONSULTATION Dec ‘00 / Jan ‘01 FINAL CIM STRATEGY 24 January ‘01 CABINET SUBMISSION 12 February ‘01 CABINET APPROVAL Figure 11 CIM Strategy Process The deliverables produced under the CIM Strategy task are listed in Table 4.

The philosophy of the CIM Strategy has been to prepare a simple and concise national policy document that sets the scene for the management of infrastructure in Samoa’s coastal environment. The Strategy has ‘Resilience’ as its central vision (refer Figure 12). Figure 12 Central Vision of the CIM Strategy The concept of resilience was considered an appropriate one for the Strategy for the following reasons: To be resilient is to be able to respond to, recover or quickly repair from damage or hardship. In this regard, the concept of resilience recognises external physical and natural pressures. It is important to recognise that coastal processes are a 22 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT natural and will occur independently of human actions. The concept of resilience establishes a management approach that is directed at how people respond to these coastal processes. The concept of resilience recognises the importance of human behaviour and management. The philosophy behind this approach is that communities need to be responsible for their own actions and how these actions increase/decrease hazard risk. The concept of resilience recognises that hazards can not be eliminated. Alternative vision concepts were discussed in the development of the strategy (e.g. hazard resistance). The concept of resilience was preferred as it acknowledges that, particularly in the Samoan context there is always hazard risk. This recognises that, in a number of cases, management approaches will be focused to risk minimisation and preparedness rather than avoidance or elimination. The concept also avoids any suggestion of bias towards a particular management approach, such as reliance on physical protection works. The concept of resilience promotes the retention of natural systems, recognising the implicit resilience in such systems (e.g. that hazard risk is associated with human activities and property). It is also noted that the concept of ‘resilience’ is increasingly used in reference to the management and planning for both hazards and natural disasters. The objectives and policies outlined in the Strategy are separated into six management themes, each with a separate goal, as outlined in Figure 13. In developing the CIM Strategy, both the Study Team and Government (in particular DLSE) indicated the importance of emphasis on local community responsibility through partnership with Government for the management of infrastructure and hazard risks. The Strategy is aimed at emphasising the importance of this aspect for coastal infrastructure management. Consultation has been undertaken at two key stages of the CIM Strategy process: the Discussion Document and the CIM Strategy: Consultation Draft (see Figure 11). The consultation process for the CIM Strategy was undertaken at three broad levels: Government consultation (this includes ‘internal consultation’ with DLSE, other members of the Infrastructure Asset Management Project Steering Committee and other relevant Government Departments); ‘Urban Consultation’, including consultation with government departments and agencies, NGO’s and private sector businesses and business representatives; and ‘District Consultation’, including consultation with Pulenu’u and other village members in selected, representative Districts. 23 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Further detail on the consultation on the draft CIM Strategy is given in CIM Strategy Background Report 2 – Consultation. National Principles for Management Local Principles for Management Information, Evaluation and Monitoring Education and Awareness Management and Use of Land and Resources Intervention Actions Figure 13 Goals for the CIM Strategy Management Themes 24 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT 4.3 Recommendations for Further Work The CIM Strategy identifies implementation methods that are specific actions required to achieve the policies given in the Strategy. The CIM Plans are the primary implementation method and Plans should be prepared for all Districts in Samoa. In addition, the numerous other actions specified in the Strategy should be undertaken to ensure it’s successful implementation. CIM Strategy Background Report 6 – Preliminary Implementation Plan and Programme for the Strategy provides a preliminary guide for implementation of the CIM Strategy having regard to priorities, realistic programmes and budgetary constraints. The report has been prepared based on the study team’s understanding from consultation feedback of the key issues and priorities emerging for the CIM Strategy and assumes that a pragmatic approach to implementation will be necessary given resource limitations. 5 Coastal Infrastructure Management Plans 5.1 Outline of Task The original contract for this work includes preparation of CIM Plans in 5 Districts. Another 10 districts were added on the list and were completed in August 15, 2002. Aiga i le Tai (including Satuimalufilufi) Vaisigano East Palauli East (including Tafua) Falealili Vaimauga East Anoama’a West Falelatai Safata Lefaga and Falese’ela Salega Gagaifomauga Aana alofi Faasaleleaga No.1 GagaemAuga Vaa o Fonoti The CIM Plan for Aiga i le Tai as the first CIM Plan was used to develop the methodology and involved considerable discussions with the IAMP Steering Committee to confirm the methodology and outcomes. Subsequent Plans followed the agreed methodology, although some refinements were made. A review of the CIM Plan pilot 25 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT study and methodology is given in CIM Strategy Background Report 7 – CIM Plan Method and Pilot Study Review. Each CIM Plan comprises two volumes: Plan Development (English only); and Implementation Guidelines (English and Samoan versions). Each CIM Plan was prepared in conjunction with the respective District Committees and National Infrastructure Providers. 5.2 Summary of Process and Outcomes Following from the Strategy, the CIM Plans provide guidance on the local level implementation of the principles and directions of the Strategy. The aim of the CIM Plan is to help communities and government to improve resilience by identifying actions and solutions. Not all the solutions may be actioned immediately but the plan will ensure that issues and options are identified for the long-term improvement in resilience of both infrastructure and communities. The aim of each CIM Plan is to: 1. Improve the community’s awareness of coastal hazard risks; 2. Enable the community and infrastructure providers to reduce coastal hazard risks in villages; 3. Enable the community and infrastructure providers to better adapt, respond and recover from cyclones. The process of preparing a CIM Plan is outlined in detail in the CIM Plan Handbook (refer Figure 14). The Handbook includes instructions, forms, worked examples and handouts for use in consultation. It is a ‘living’ document to be changed and added to as the CIM Plans progress. The purpose of the Handbook is to provide training notes for counterparts and team members from the outset of the process and to give consistency in the preparation of the CIM Plans as team members change over time. Consultations involve the pulenu’u, 20-30 persons per village and by the time all approximately 300 villages are complete, about 10,000 citizens (6% of the population) will have been directly involved. Note that this is about 90% of Resource Managers in the communities. 26 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Step 1: Preparation Getting Ready Step 2: Briefing and Assessment What’s the Problem? Step 3: Evaluation of Options What can we do about it? Step 4: Drafting the CIM Plan Let’s try this… or this… or this Step 5: Follow up How’s it going? Step 6: Finalise the Plan This is it! Step 7 Delivery Telling those who need to know Figure 14 Contents of the CIM Plan Handbook In summary, the Plan development process involves (refer also Figure 15): Information is gathered from the Coastal Hazard Zone Maps, the Coastal Hazard Database, walking through and driving through the communities that make up the area of the Plan, consultation and education meetings held in the local communities, discussions with National infrastructure providers responsible for the provision and maintenance of national services and networks and other public and private stakeholders such as Government departments, donor agencies and significant resource users in the district such as resort hotels; Consultation is undertaken during the collection of information for the Coastal Hazard Zone Maps, during the preparation of the Strategy and with each village during the preparation of the Plan; A District CIM Plan Committee is formed consisting of representatives from each village; 27 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT NATIONAL INFRASTRUCTURE ASSESSMENT VILLAGE / DISTRICT BRIEFING & ASSESSMENT OPTION EVALUATION & PLAN DRAFTING NIP WORKING GROUP MEETING 1: Identify Infrastructure and Issues VILLAGE EDUCATION WORKSHOPS VILLAGE WALK THROUGHS ASSESS INFRASTRUCTURE RESILIENCE DISTRICT COMMITTEE MEETING 1: Possible Solutions and Impacts DRAFT CIM PLAN DISTRIBUTE DRAFT CIM PLAN DISTRICT COMMITTEE MEETING 2: Distribute Draft CIM Plan NIP WORKING GROUP MEETING 2: FOLLOW UP Receive Comments DISTRICT COMMITTEE MEETING 3: Receive Comments FINALISE PLAN DISTRIBUTE FINAL CIM PLAN DISTRICT COMMITTEE MEETING 4: Distribute Final CIM Plan & Sign Off Figure 15 CIM Plan Process The draft Plan is prepared and returned to each of the District CIM Plan Committee representatives for discussion and comment in the village. At the same time the draft Plan is delivered to other stakeholders for their comment and discussion. The Plan is finalised following the receipt of comments from all of the villages and other stakeholders. 28 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT In preparing the CIM Plans, an assessment is made of the physical, social and economic aspects of the solutions proposed. The assessment is undertaken in conjunction with District CIM Plan Committee. The CIM Plan Team provides technical support and facilitates the assessment. The CIM Plan Team also undertakes a preliminary economic analysis of structural solutions such as seawalls or managed retreat involving road relocation. The Economic Analysis methodology is a key deliverable of the CIM Plan component, outlined in the Guidelines for Economic Analysis. The Economic Analysis applies costs and benefits over a 20 year timeframe and assesses the proposed solutions against the benefits and costs of continuing to do what is currently being done in terms of on-going maintenance and investment (i.e. the ‘Do Minimum’ option). The CIM Plan consists of two parts each serving a separate and distinct purpose. Plan Development, which describes the process undertaken in preparing the CIM Plan in conjunction with representatives of the Communities involved and the Government and other stakeholders with interests in the Plan area. Implementation Guidelines, which describes the Plans and Actions recommended as outcomes of the process, together with the partner (e.g. Government department, village) responsible for implementing these outcomes. The participants of the CIM Plan preparation process are acknowledged in the Implementation Guidelines. Plan Development includes the following: A description of the plan development process and of the physical, social and economic settings for the Plan area. A description of the existing situation and the issues affecting networks and services at the District level. A description is also given of the solutions proposed for the district, including the reasons for those solutions, the expected outcomes and monitoring measures. Other solutions considered but not proposed are discussed. A description of the existing situation and issues affecting each village. A description is also given of the solutions proposed and other solutions considered in consultation with the village. The Implementation Guidelines describe the solutions proposed that will increase the resilience of the villages in the Plan area and the ways these solutions can be implemented. The solutions are presented for each of the infrastructure items that have 29 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT moderate to low resilience. Where one solution will provide benefits to other items of infrastructure these “Other Benefits” are also noted. Implementation is considered to be the joint responsibility of both the villages and the government in partnership. The government is responsible for the provision of national and district “Public”, infrastructure, while villages are responsible for local and community infrastructure. The responsibility for implementing the proposed actions is also defined. Solutions for both District infrastructure and Village infrastructure, and the responsibility of both partners, should be considered together as they combine to provide for the integrated management of all coastal infrastructures. The solutions for village infrastructure will usually be the responsibility of the Village and Families in the village to implement. Advice and resources may be available from government to assist the village in implementing these solutions. In most situations these solutions will also provide benefits to both village and district infrastructure and should be considered an integral part of managing coastal infrastructure at both levels. 5.3 Recommendations for Further Work Arising from the CIM Plan component, there are four recommendations for further work that would improve the long-term resilience of Samoan communities: Complete CIM Plans for all Districts of Samoa. While it is clear from the work completed to date that some Districts are more sensitive to Coastal Hazards than others it is important to develop the Partnership between Government and the Villages that is engendered through consultation. Develop and investigate the possible solutions identified in the CIM Plans in more detail. For each District a specific schedule and list of projects for managing infrastructure assets should be developed, which identifies preparation requirements, clearance requirements, approximate cost estimates, financing sources, implementation arrangements and timing. These matters are the responsibility of the partner departments and corporations identified in the Implementation Guidelines. The consultation also identifies other issues of concern not directly related to Coastal Hazards that if acted upon would improve the resilience of these communities. These issues are noted in the CIM Plans and may be picked up by the relevant authorities as programming permits. Such issues include the provision of a sustainable domestic water supply and flooding from inland areas affecting roads, bridges, houses and other infrastructure. It is important to recognise that the CIM Plan is one of a number of tools and Plans that give effect to the CIM Strategy to improve resilience. Consideration should be given to other plans for land-use management, Integrated Coastal Zone Management and also the existing plans for fisheries management and 30 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT where they fit in the management of assets, resources and activities for the whole of Samoa. 6 Coastal/Environmental Advisory Services 6.1 Outline of Task The CEA Services component comprised six visits, as outlined in Table 5. Paul WellsGreen and Richard Frankland, both of Beca, lead the training sessions. Other members of the consultant’s team made presentations also. Following each visit, a Visit Completion Report was prepared, containing details of the training presented, attendance, responses to sessions and suggestions for improvement of future training. The deliverables produced under the CEA Services component are listed in Table 6.

The potential training topics identified were: Formation of a technical information database Coastal process monitoring methods Coastal dynamics Causes of erosion The legislative framework for coastal works Explanation of the CIM Strategy and CIM plan processes Selection of appropriate solutions for coastal works Preparation of environmental impact assessments and documents A formal EIA process (in practice, rather than in law) Evaluation of EIA submissions Design guidelines, criteria, methods 32 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Net present value (economic analysis) The training needs analysis also reviewed what training methods had been successful in the past. The above information was used to plan a course of training visits, as summarized in Table 5. The training sessions addressed all of the issues raised during the Training Needs Analysis and utilized all preferred training approaches at various times. The training visits were focused on day-to-day work, as it relates to the coastal environment and environmental management in general. Teaching methods were varied and included seminars, tutorials, workshops, group and individual presentations. There was an emphasis on interactive methods that involve participants in the exercise, rather than on lecture deliveries. Wherever possible, training was related to the actual work of the participants. For each training visit a comprehensive set of training notes were prepared and presented to participants. The contents of the Training Notes are given in Table 7. The training notes included details of each presentation, sets of references notes and design examples, guidelines and checklists for particular types of work advocated by the CEA Services, such as EIA preparation.

The group of people attending the training sessions was drawn from the design and construction industry and from public servants involved in the regulation and protection of the environment in Samoa. This included staff from MoW, Treasury, DLSE, EPC, SWA, MAFFM, SPA, Samoa Tel, consultants, contractors and other government corporations. The objective of the CEA Services work was to develop skills in the attendees that will help them in their investigation, design, assessment, evaluation, construction and maintenance of coastal resources and assets. Participants were asked to complete and return evaluation forms during each training visit. Based on the responses received from these evaluations, the ongoing interest in the training sessions and by the overall increase in environmental awareness, we consider the capabilities of the participants have increased over the course of the CEA Services component. This increase is also reflected in the number and quality of applications for consent and EIAs prepared over the past year. Many of the aspects of the CEA Services component have been be put into action by DLSE and PWD staff however many of those who began the training have now left and have been replaced by others. In a wider sense the project as a whole has had major influence on the way that village and district communities view environmental issues, through the extensive consultation programme carried out for the preparation of the CIM Plans. The contribution of this process to the consciousness-raising in respect of environmental issues is very significant. The CEA Services training benefited from this consultation process, as 34 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT training participants were learning in a situation where environmental issues had new and important prominence. This provided more incentive to learn. 6.3 Recommendations for Further Work The training notes are quite extensive and distributing additional copies and updating/maintaining existing copies would represent a significant time and cost burden on whatever organization ultimately looks after them. It would be much better to mount these files on an internet web page, so that they can be downloaded by people who want further information or who need to update or complete their files. This would allow ready access to the public sector also. It may also be possible to put other related documents here too, such as exemplars of consent applications and design reports and the economic analysis spreadsheet. As part of the CEA Services, a Network Group was established, comprising representatives from several government departments and corporations. Networking amongst this group would allow those people with environmental responsibilities to maintain contact to share ideas and suggestions. Suggested actions are as follows Appoint a person to maintain the email group. Update email group and send to all participants still around. Use the email or users group to update all copies of documents as required. It has been our experience on many training visits that despite attempts to co-ordinate, other events have often prevented participants from attending. Most often though other training has been under way and it is clear that major efforts are being made to provide useful training for participants, from a wide variety of sources. This can lead to a “training overload” phenomenon, where participants go from one training session to the next and not surprisingly end up not much better off. It would be an advantage to identify all the potential upcoming training programmes (DLSE and PWD have a training co-ordinator who could do this) and try to minimise clashes. Additionally, as all learners need to try out their new found knowledge for it to be properly absorbed, the quantity of training provided should be very carefully weighed against the quality and the time required applying the knowledge gained. Without the opportunity to apply new knowledge, it is quickly forgotten and has to be re-learnt at a future date. From comments made during the recent training visits, the following suggestions are made for future training topics, Economic Analysis (Revision) – we suspect that the topic of economic analysis will require additional revisions sessions at its application has a direct result on the outcome of the CIM plans. Revetment Design (Revision) – We were asked to provide revision sessions on this topic during the last training visit. 35 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT EIA workshops – Any further training on this topic should ideally be based on actual EIAs prepared by participants since the last training sessions. It was agreed that these topics are suitable for revision and review in future to ensure they accurately applied. 7 DLSE Institutional Review 7.1 Outline of Task Lyn Yeoman and Colin Ward of Yeoman Ward International undertook the DLSE Institutional Review from 26 June to 28 July 2000. The Institutional Review took into account the impacts of the other components of the CEIS project and other members of the consultant’s team made contributions to the Institutional Review. The resulting report (refer Table 8) was finalised in June 2001, after being submitted in draft in September 2000. Table 8 DLSE Institutional Review Component Deliverables 7.2 Deliverable Date DLSE Institutional Review Phase 1 Report June 2001 Summary of Process and Outcomes The Institutional Review involved extensive consultation within DLSE and across other key stakeholder organisations, particularly MoW, Treasury, PSC and MAFFM. The purpose of the review was to identify Institutional issues which, when addressed, will contribute to the further development of DLSE. Institutional issues which need to be addressed to enable the sustainability and success of the Coastal Environmental and Institutional Services components of the IAMP. The review process was also designed to be a training experience also, with the interview process including a description of the review framework, purpose and methodology. Also, a formal workshop was held to explain how public sector organisations work, develop and change, and why. The combination of consultation and training enabled staff to be included in the evaluation process rather than the target of 36 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT evaluation, which was intended to reduce anxiety as to what impact the review may have. Prior to the Institutional Review, DLSE had undertaken several initiatives in relation to Institutional Strengthening. The resulting DLSE Corporate Plan 2000-2002 and Institutional Policy (February 2000) were submitted to and approved by Cabinet during 2000. The Institutional Review component commenced with a review of these documents and the legislative framework that provides DLSE’s mandate. Several recommendations arose from this review, including: Existing legislation should be reviewed to provide a clearer mandate for DLSE, through removing internal inconsistencies, repealing irrelevant provisions and consolidating legislation into several key Acts. A sustainable development and management framework (i.e. identification of links between legislation, policies, strategies, plans, best practice guidelines etc) should be developed to provide a more effective operating environment for DLSE. DLSE’s organisational structure should be further refined to better support key functions. The ‘Vision’ and ‘Mission’ statements should be refined to better demonstrate DLSE’s focus. They should also be more visible within the Department, so they act as a guide for internal practices. Divisional Business Plans should be prepared to provide more detail in relation to the concepts presented in the ‘Management Plan’ section of the Corporate Plan. The Divisional Business Plans should establish priorities and target dates for the completion of tasks. Management of outsourced functions should be strengthened, through developing policies on tendering, quality control and revenue management. The Corporate Plan and Institutional Policy should be integrated to provide improved efficiency, transparency, budget control and staff management. The consultation undertaken during the review reinforced the above recommendations and highlighted further institutional issues that would need to be addressed to further development of DLSE and enable the sustainability of the CEIS project. DLSE was found to be subject to a series of constraints on capacity, including: Understaffing of established positions by 33% Scarcity of skilled resources Inability to compete with the private sector for skilled resources 37 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Need to prioritise resource allocation and establish basis for performance management Lack of long term skill / career planning Scattered office locations Lack of funding for staff training Lack of empowering legislation These constraints impact on the ability for the Department to undertake existing functions. In addition, a functional analysis indicated that, only 13% of staff resources are devoted to policy development, resource management, programme planning and implementation and organisation support (refer Figure 16), which are considered the main areas of DLSE’s operations. The functional analysis and capacity constraints suggest that DLSE will find it difficult to achieve the objectives of the current Corporate Plan. DLSE is subject to a series of competing demands and this is evidenced by the ‘reworking’ of the ‘Management Plan’ section of the Corporate Plan, as undertaken during the Institutional Review. Identifying the Division most suited by function to complete the ‘Activities’ from the ‘Management Plan’ clearly demonstrated the competing demands experienced by Divisions within DLSE. 38 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT FUNCTIONAL ANALYSIS DLSE Policy Support 1 4% 6 18% Planning 2 5% Regulator 3 4% 4 Informatio 23% Services 5 46% Figure 16 Results of Functional Analysis In addition to the activities identified in the Corporate Plan, there are other activities that DLSE must consider in setting priorities. In particular, over the next 1-2 years DLSE will be required to absorb activities from PSC Institutional Strengthening Project and the CEIS project, and develop information technology and data management functions. The Institutional Review suggests that DLSE also assumes responsibility for Disaster Management functions and those functions currently located within Meteorology Division, MAFFM. Restructuring and refocusing of resources will be required to achieve the objectives of the current Corporate Plan and to allow the proposed intake of new functions. Outsourcing has been identified as a mechanism for refocusing DLSE’s resources and increasing capacity. DLSE have already outsourced some functions and have identified further potential candidates in the Corporate Plan. The Institutional Review identified further candidates. DLSE has also already established an external services function to manage outsourced activities The intake of new activities and outsourcing of current activities must be carefully managed and planned. Organisation templates to 2003 were prepared showing a possible staging of intake and outsource functions (the final organisation template for 2002/2003 is given in Figure 17). These templates identify potential functional structures over the next three years, based on private sector capacity, likely timing of exit and entry of functions and skill availability. They are intended to provide a catalyst for DLSE to begin to consider functional analysis and the streamlining of DLSE around its core functions. 39 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Department of Environment Functional Organisation Template 2002/2003 Directorate Corporate Services Environmental Information Services Environmental Support Services Environmental Planning Land Management Disaster Management Unit Accounts Draughting & Examination National Parks Policy & Planning Land Policy Risk Management Extenal Services Valuation Resource Conservation Planning Land Leases Hazard Management Administration & Secretarial Survey Capacity Building & Community Consultation CIMS Land Registry Disaster Response and Recovery Human Resources & Training Mapping Donor Funded Projects COEP Legal Weather Forecasting CEAS EIA Audit Professional Standards Geological Surveys CIMP Customer Services Information Technology CHZ Mapping CHZ Database Management Geophysical Surveys Hydrology Figure 17 Organisational Template 2002/2003 (Bold Line = Outsource Candidates; Dotted Line = Intake Functions) 7.3 Recommendations for Further Work Annex 1 of the DLSE Institutional Review Phase 1 report contains a recommended Terms of Reference for further Institutional Strengthening Technical Assistance. The Terms of Reference are separated into Immediate Priorities and Longer Term Requirements. The Immediate Priorities are intended to quickly build capacity in the areas of divisional planning. This will require a Consultant to act in a mentoring/coaching role to assist Assistant Directors in preparing detailed Divisional Plans. The Longer Term Requirements are intended to consolidate the capacity gains made by developing a longer term, robust framework for DLSE’s operations. Activities are proposed in the following areas: Legislative Review; Human Resource Management; Accounting and Information Technology; Customer Services; External Services; and Training. 40 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT 8 Interim Codes of Environmental Practice 8.1 Outline of Task Codes of Environmental Practice for Samoa are to be developed in two stages: Stage 1 Interim codes to guide the implementation of works under IAMP during the latter half of the year 2000. Stage 2 A complete set of codes referenced to legislation to be prepared after a legislation review and after consultation with stakeholders. Stage 1 was undertaken as part of the CEIS project and the outcome, the Interim COEPs, focuses on road planning, design, construction and maintenance, and associated coastal protection works. Table 9 Interim Codes of Environmental Practice Component Deliverables 8.2 Deliverable Date Interim Codes of Environmental Practice November 2000 Summary of Process and Outcomes The Interim Codes of Environmental Practice (COEPs) have been prepared for use during the planning, design, construction, and operation as well as maintenance of all roads and coastal works in Samoa. The overall objectives of this component are: To initiate sound environmental management practice and procedures for public works in Samoa, with particular emphasis on the application of COEPs for road works and services To develop user friendly COEPs which can be readily applied and understood by all affected interest groups; and To support the goals of the IAMP which is funded by the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD) The COEPs are set out to ensure that minimum environmental standards are met and that appropriate procedures are undertaken to reduce the environmental impact of various activities related to road works and services. Each of the phases of a roading 41 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT project, i.e. planning, design, construction, and operation and maintenance are interrelated and have differing potential to effect (either adversely or beneficially) the environment. The overall objective of the COEPs is to provide a pollution minimisation approach to general road works and services, establish guidelines for the mitigation of adverse environmental effects, and wherever possible indicate opportunities for environmental enhancement for, the planning, design, construction and operation and maintenance of roading projects. It is intended that the development, approval, and subsequent adoption of the COEPs in conjunction with the identification of project specific issues and the preparation of management and mitigation plans for those issues will allow a reduction in the dependence on the conventional environmental impact assessment (EIA) system. COEPs are identified within the framework of environmental assessment outlined in Samoa’s Draft EIA Regulations 1998. The codes included in the Interim COEPs are: COEP 1 COEP 2 COEP 3 COEP 4 COEP 5 COEP 6 COEP 7 COEP 8 COEP 9 COEP 10 COEP 11 COEP 12 Administrative Procedures Planning, Design & Construction Consultation Land Acquisition & Compensation Construction Camps Erosion Control Slope Stability Quarry Development & Operation River Gravel Extraction Coastal Protection Drainage Traffic Control During Construction All COEPs should be read in conjunction with COEP 1, which sets out the overall administrative mechanisms and objectives for this group of COEPs. Some COEPs will be relevant to all aspects of road works and services, while others are only relevant to one or two stages of an overall project. 8.3 Recommendations for Further Work Stage 2 of the COEP development, that is the preparation of a complete set of codes referenced to legislation, should be undertaken and should include a legislation review and after consultation with stakeholders. 42 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Consideration should be given to developing addition COEPs, relating to activities other than road planning, design, construction and maintenance. For example, COEPs relating to construction of hard structural coastal management options other than seawalls and COEPs relating to sandmining. The preparation of additional COEPs could be used to enhance coastal infrastructure management, as identified in the CIM Strategy. 9 GIS Specifications 9.1 Outline of Task Preparation of the GIS Specifications involved a needs analysis to determine the GIS requirements of DLSE and PWD. The needs analysis was undertaken in September 2000. The resulting report (refer Table 10) was finalised in April 2001, after being submitted in draft in October 2000. Dave Annan of Beca undertook the needs analysis and report preparation. Table 10 GIS Specifications Component Deliverables Deliverable GIS Specifications Report Date April 2001 9.2 Summary and Outcomes The purpose of GIS Specifications component was to prepare a technical specification for the GIS System to be procured under IAMP component C2.02. This component covers the: Supply and implementation of a geographic information system (GIS) computerised database and software, for the storage, retrieval and management of land related data and information, to be administered by DLSE and made available for access by public and private users. The report outlines the findings of a GIS Needs Analysis and includes a technical specification, based on the findings of the needs analysis. The technical specification recommends software and hardware to be procured for DLSE. Several issues identified during the needs analysis influenced the outcomes of the report, namely: Progress of the DLSE Institutional Review Capture of the Cadastral and Land Registry information PWD Road Asset Management Requirements 43 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Access to information by other Sections within DLSE, Government Departments, Outside Interested Parties Relocation of Offices of DLSE Discussions focused on these issues and the relationship between the IT components of the IAMP (i.e. components C2.02, D1 and D2) resulted in the following directions for the report: The equipment for PWD is now to be purchased under components D1 and D2. Therefore, while the requirements for PWD are discussed in the GIS Specifications report, no technical specification is included. A staged approach was agreed upon for the procurement of hardware, software, and services for DLSE. The first stage of the procurement is to focus on DLSE’s Mapping, Plan Draughting and Examination and Surveying sections. Therefore, other sections of DLSE are not been included in the technical specifications. Stage 1 of the procurement will establish a LAN based system in DLSE’s Mapping, Surveying and Plan Draughting and Examination Sections. It will comprise: Procurement of stand alone hardware and software for basic GIS requirements in Mapping, Plan Draughting and Examination and Survey sections. Installation of a Local Area Network (LAN) to connect between the devices within the above mentioned sections as well as between the sections. Training to be specific to this software and hardware only. This stage will allow basic access to the data and functionality of the GIS software to manipulate the data while other aspects of the project progress. During this time a better understanding of the requirements of different Sections and Departments in terms of GIS will be developed. This will allow a more comprehensive and detailed specification to be provided for the procurements of goods and services under Stage 2. 9.3 Recommendation for Further Work Stage 2 of the GIS procurement should proceed. This stage will establish an Internet/Intranet system and will comprise: Increased access to the GIS via a Wide Area Network (WAN) and via the Internet. Procurement of hardware and software for other sections in DLSE. 44 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Capture of cadastral and land registry data, including training. Training to be specific to this software and hardware purchased under this stage only. The actual timeframe for the commencement of Stage 2 is dependant upon the completed relocation of DLSE (expected to occur early 2002), fibre optic lines installed along Beach Road (expected to occur by March 2001) Phase II of the Institutional Review (expected to be completed by the end of 2001), and the development of the Government WAN by Treasury. DLSE have noted that this report and the associated specifications should allow the Mapping, Plan Draughting and Examination and Surveying sections to collect, analyse, manipulate and present data. The GIS System Architecture presented in the report allows all of these functions, with the exception of the electronic capture of cadastral information and the capture of survey data. Further investigation of these activities, including outsourcing potential, is recommended. 10.0 Geographical Information 10.1 Outline of Task The last aerial photographs taken, was before the visit by cyclones Ofa and Val in 1991 and 1992, which left the Government with a total cost of about ST 600 Million. The overall aim of this work can be collective discussed as follows; To update topographical maps so to map out new data Provide the required information in a GIS format that can be analyzed in parallel with existing data to reveal and identified changes in particular to support hazard Mapping for the CIM Strategy development To update existing GIS layers and further support SAMS under MoW. 10.2 Summary of Process and Outcomes The following deliverables were received; 1:50,000 orthophotos with contours 1:5,000 orthophotos with and without contours Topographical Maps of Samoa at 1:50,000 GIS Data at 1:20,000 Scale 45 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Samoa Database Structure: Layer Listing: Layer U U U Feature Types U Description U U Building Point Features / Poly Features All building features Contour Point Features / Line Features Contour and spot heights Cultivation Poly Features Agricultural Land Use Hydro Point Features / Line Features / Poly Features All land based Hydrographic features Landuse Poly Features Urban or Infrastructure Land Use Localities Point Features All named features Offshore Point Features / Line Features / Poly Features Offshore and CoastLine Features features Relief Poly Features Relief Area Features (Lava Flows) Road Point Features / Line Features Roads and Associated transport features Structure Point Features / Line Features Structural and infrastructure features Text Annotation Cartographic Text Vegetation Point Features / Line Features / Poly Features Non cultivated Vegetation Layer: Building Items Feat_Code, Feat_Name, Name, Use Point Features building Poly Features building_ply Layer: Contour Fields Feat_Code, Feat_Name, Name, Elevation Point Features height, trig 46 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Line Features contour Layer: Cultivation Fields Feat_Code, Feat_Name, Name, Use Poly Features orchard, plantation, cultivation Layer: Hydro Fields Feat_Code, Feat_Name, Name Point Features spring, waterfall Line Features drain, river Poly Features lake, reservr, river_poly Layer: Landuse Fields Feat_Code, Feat_Name, Name, Use Poly Features cemetery, golf_crs, landfill, racetrk, urban , sprtfld Layer: Localities Fields Feat_Code, Feat_Name, Name, Descript Poly Features named_feat Layer: Offshore Fields Feat_Code, Feat_Name, Name, Use Point Features Line Features reef Poly Features Island, ocean, rock Layer: Relief Fields Feat_Code, Feat_Name, Name Point Features cave Line Features cliff Poly Features lava_flow Layer: Road Fields Feat_Code, Feat_Name, Name, Use, Lanes, Material ,Class Point Features ford 47 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Line Features bridge, ferry, road, track Layer: Structure Fields Feat_Code, Feat_Name, Name, Use Point Features grave, tank, tower Line Features breakwtr, embankment, fence, wharf, wharf_edge Poly Features airport Layer: Text Fields Annotation All annotation text Layer: Vegetation Fields Feat_Code, Feat_Name, Name, Type Point Features tree Line Features shelt_blt Poly Features forest, mangrove 10.3 Summary of Process and Outcomes During the process of finalizing the topographical maps and the GIS products, Mr. Leoo Polutea, Chief Mapping Officer of DLSE was attached to Aireseach. A staff of Airesearch went around the island with DLSE counterpart staff from the Mapping Section to do the field checks. In addition, DLSE conducted checks on all products and a report was sent back to Airesaerch to correct discrepancies discovered. The discrepancies were mainly on contours which were found inconsistent. OPUS , who were contracted to develop the SAMS identified some discrepancies when GPS data were mapped on the aerial photos. On average there was a 13 meters shift in the north direction and a 3-4 meter shift in the East West Direction. This finding was received critical and an independent study to resolve the issue is under preparation. The sale of GIS data and Topographical maps was an issue constantly raised as the data, in particular, was argued to be freely exchanged. DLSE discussed the importance of copyright to control data reproduction. The department also recognized the cost involved in capturing new data and the overall management and sustainability of the system in light of technology growth. To formalize the sale of data, DLSE had developed an agreement to provide a licensee in the use of data. Costings were also developed and was submitted to Cabinet for endorsement and approval. Since the sales 48 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT of the data in 2000, the system had collected about ST 170,000. This revenue will go back to treasury as an indicator of the system potential to sustain and to some extent reimburse the cots spend on the whole exercise. Presently, the computers now available and received from C2.02 had enable DLSE to provide this service. 10.3 Recommendation for Further work The continual interest in using the aerial photograph, the proposed GPS study is critical and should be done soon. The growth in development and the potential threats to possible cyclones would require good planning and commitment to update these topographical data. An update time of min 5 years is requested. 11.0 Information Management System 11.1 Outline of Task Having used GIS to support the CHZ and the need to manage all spatial and non spatial data collected in this component for the management of coastal infrastructure, this procurement establishes full GIS capability with DLSE and MoW. The task, apart from supplying GIS Equipments, provided training on software procured. The software are Civil CAD and Auto CAD for road design and survey work which can feed in to the GIS. Map Info, the preferred GIS platform is compatible to CAD packages thus enhance transfer of data between these software 11.2 Summary of Process and Outcomes The training aspects were schedule as follows; Table 11: Training Schedule MAPINFO (total 18 people) Course 1 - Monday 10th, Tuesday 11th & Wed 12th June premises 6 x people Course 2 - Thursday 13th Friday 14th & Monday 17th June Premises 6 x people Course 3 - Tuesday 18th, Wednesday 19th, Thursday 20th June Premises 6 x people U U P P P P P P P P P P P CIVILCAD (total 5 people) U P P P U 49 P P P P CSL CSL CSL COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Course 1 - Monday 24th, Tues 25th, Wed 26th June premises 5 x people CSL AUTOCAD (total 10 people) Course 1 - Mon 1st July, Tues 2nd July, Wed 3rd July premises 10 x people CSL P U P P P P P U P P P P P P MS OFFICE (total 20 people) Local classes with CSL - Trainer to liase with both depts. 8th - 18th July CSL premises 20 x people U U P P P P The relocation of accommodation for DLSE and the reform of MoW caused a delay in the networking activity of the task. To ensure that information is available in such a format that can be collectively analysed and managed, GIS capability and database systems were setup with PWD through the newly established Asset Management System and DLSE. 11.3 Recommendation for future Work The equipment procured under IAM-1 should initialize data capture that will serve the setup of Samoa Land Information System (SAMLIS) in IAM-2 More specialize training is required for staff especially for DLSE who will be managing the SAMLIS. AusAID and NZODA can approached under their training grant to provide this support. Cadastral System and a reliable Land Registration System are key attributes of the SAMLIS 12. Integration of Tasks All of the project components contribute to an overall aim of improved coastal infrastructure management. The CIM Strategy and Plans are the primary means of coastal infrastructure management and, as illustrated in Figure 18, all other components feed into the Strategy and Plans. The relationship of each component to the CIM Strategy and Plans is summarised in the following sections. Also discussed is the relationship with other components, where applicable. 50 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT 1 2 . 1 A e r i a l P h o t o g r a p h y a n d To p o g r a p h i c a l M a p s Overall, appropriate planning and sustainable decision making is based on good, updated information. The information collected through the aerial survey was the basis for the success of the CIM strategy and plan development. 12.2 GIS Information This component involves developing specifications for the procurement of GIS equipment and software for DLSE. It is the first step in establishing and Land Information Management System (LIMS) in the Department. The CHZ maps will become one component of the LIMS, as will the topographical information developed. Once the system is established, information from other sources can be incorporated. In this component, GIS was used to manage, analyze and compare data from aerial photography both current and past to identified changes that had occurred. Rates of change were being determined to give a forecast of what to expect depending on the planning horizon. CHZ maps were a combination of anecdotal interviews and GIS analysis. 12.3 CHZ Mapping The CHZ maps define the type and extent of coastal hazards to be considered in setting the objectives and policies of the CIM Strategy, in particular those relating to ‘Information, Evaluation and Monitoring’ and ‘Education and Awareness’. Hazard definition also goes some way towards defining design parameters for the construction of intervention actions. At both the national and district level, the CHZ maps will be a critical tool in implementing the CIM Strategy. They can be used to identify infrastructure and it’s susceptibility to hazards, and thus to determine a communities resilience. The use of the CHZ maps in the CIM Plan process will raise community awareness of coastal hazards. The CHZ Mapping involved extensive fieldwork and consultation. The consultation raised the profile of the CEIS project overall and therefore facilitated the consultation for the CIM Strategy that followed. 51 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT Interim COEPs Environmentally sustainable operating procedures and practice in coastal infrastructure development Improved analysis, management and publishing of data relating to coastal infrastructure management G IS Spe cs Define Samoa’s coastal hazards and make the information widely available Ma CHZ g ppin CE A l na ti o i tu w st vie In Re Enhanced capacity for DLSE, PWD and private sectors in coastal infrastructure management Se rv ice s CIM Strategy and Plans Develop and strengthen DLSE’s capability for coastal management and planning Figure 18 Integration of Project Components 12. 4 CEA Services Transfer of knowledge and enhancement of environmental awareness are principal purposes of the CEIS project. There are elements of training in all activities of the project, but these purposes are achieved primarily through the formal training that occurs under the CEA Services. The CEA Services will strengthen government’s capability for coastal management and planning by training DLSE and PWD staff involved with coastal works and environmental management. This will strengthen government’s capability for implementing the CIM Strategy and preparing CIM Plans. Private sector is also targeted in this component, enhancing the capacity of infrastructure providers and developers to implement the Strategy through planning and preparing for hazard resilience. The CEA Services is related to other components of the project also. Elements of the CHZ mapping component were presented early in the training programme. The Interim COEPs have been the subject of several sessions with both government staff and private sector representatives. 52 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT 12.5 DLSE Institutional Review Endorsement of the CIM Strategy by Cabinet will see coastal infrastructure management becoming an increasingly important function of DLSE. The DLSE Institutional Review will, in part, identify means by which the department’s capability for coastal management and planning can be strengthened. The Institutional Review will also be an opportunity for DLSE to adjust its corporate plan and structure to incorporate the new activities identified in the Strategy. Specific issues that will be considered by the Institutional Review that directly relate to the CIM Strategy include: Identifying the functions and roles of the department, and therefore the department’s role in promoting, regulating, monitoring and enforcing the CIM Strategy. Identifying the functions of divisions within DLSE, with the functions of the Division of Environment and Conservation (DEC) and the possibility of this division of DLSE becoming a separate department, and the role of the proposed Environment Board being particularly important. Identifying the scope of legislation review required to provide a framework supportive of coastal infrastructure management and other functions of DLSE. The legislative review would also allow the development of statutes to promote environmental impact assessment. The outcomes of the DLSE Institutional Review will be a legislative framework that supports coastal infrastructure management, giving a legal mandate to the preparation of the CIM Strategy and CIM Plans. The Institutional Review will also be a mechanism to identify and mobilise resources for coastal infrastructure management. 12.6 Interim Codes of Environmental Practice The Interim COEPs are a means of ensuring that the principles of environmental impact assessment are applied to projects – one of the objectives of the CIM Strategy. They will promote environmentally sustainable operating procedures and practices in both the public and private sector. 53 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT 13.0 Progress Indicators and Performance Measures 13.1 Key Performance Indicators Table 12: KPI Activity CHZ Survey Topographical maps published Indicator Target Actual 50% complete Jun-00 Aug-00 100% complete Jun-01 Dec-00 Coastal maps available Jun-00 Oct-00 Jun-01 Dec-00 National maps published Jun-02 Dec-00 Prepared Jun-00 Oct-00 Cabinet endorsed Dec-00 Jan-01 Awareness A – 5%, B & C – 0% Jun-00 April-01 GIS Service established CIM Strategy CIM Plans Awareness A – 40%, B – 5%, C – 0% Jun-01 July -01 Jun-02 August-01 September 01 Awareness A – 70%, B – 40%, C - 5% COEP Implemented Jul-99 Monitoring sites Baseline – 1 Sep-99 Current – 277 54 Nov-00 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT 13.2 Committed Expenditure vs Budget Part Component C.

They are all inter-related and in particular, all components contribute to the Coastal Infrastructure Management (CIM) Strategy and Plans, which are considered the key components of the project. 56 COASTAL COMPONENT FINAL REPORT As a result of the Coastal Project Component, there is a proven need to manage Samoa’s coastal resources and infrastructure development. The Coastal Hazard Zone Mapping indicates that all of the coastline of Samoa is subject to coastal hazards to some extent. The coastal environment and development is particularly susceptible to coastal hazards during major events, such as tropical cyclones. The CIM Strategy and associated Plans provide the means of managing Samoa’s coastal resources and development. The overall intention is to improve the resilience of Samoa’s coastal communities to coastal hazards. Better investment of Samoa’s limited resources for coastal infrastructure management and development will also result. Both Government and villages need to be empowered to achieve the vision of resilience. Government will require additional resources, training and possibly restructuring to take on the new functions associated with coastal infrastructure management. Initial training had been provided by this component. The institutional review of DLSE had reflected on these issues. Village level involvement is a key to the success of the CIM Strategy and Plans and the role of Government in raising public awareness and providing technical advice is therefore important. These activities are vital to ensuring that villages can participate in the decision making process and DLSE will draw on the training provided through to fulfill this role. Provision of information is also an important means of empowering villages to participate in coastal infrastructure management. It is also important in encouraging the participation of other stakeholders, such as the private sector and government corporations. The establishment of a GIS within DLSE will facilitate the dissemination of information to any interested party. Information management is also necessary for the monitoring of activities and associated impacts. Development of the CIM Plans has highlighted that land use practices can have considerable impact on the coastal environment. The need for ‘best practice’ guidelines such as those contained within the Interim Codes of Environmental Practice (COEPs) will become increasingly important in Samoa over the coming years, as development increases. While the coastal project component has advanced coastal infrastructure management in Samoa, there remains further work that could further the achievements in this direction. This work should be considered for inclusion in the IAMP-2, or as candidates for funding by other donor agencies. 57 Payments to be paid P P Figure 19: Payments made as per May 31st , 2003.
