Description

The Request describes potential harm to a critical cultural site derived from the construction of a transmission line. According to the Requester, this poses a noncompliance with IDB policies related to cultural sites, since the design of the project harms a national monument, and its construction will damage the critical cultural site by breaking it in two parts. Furthermore, the Request cites an affectation to the scenery as 30 towers and a transmission line will be visible from the central area of the cultural site. In addition, there was a failure in identifying the critical cultural site as such, and in assessing and applying mitigation measures.
