AMBRO is a major partner on the site preparation services for permanent shelters in Quartier Morin, Terrier Rouge and Ouanaminthe, as part of USAID plans to make significant contributions to the shelter and settlements sector. The site development work being performed on the Quartier Morin, Terrier Rouge and Ouanaminthe development sites in the Northern Corridor are part of the United States Government permanent shelter program. The purpose of this program is to provide a culturally appropriate dwelling on a modest site made from locally available materials that can be easily repaired or expanded and that is capable of safely resisting the natural-hazards of the country. On these new settlements, USAID will build Sites and Services for approximately 184 lots at Ouanaminthe, 258 lots on Quartier Morin and 242 lots on Terrier Rouge, which are lots serviced with basic infrastructure, including access to water and basic sanitation, roads, footpaths and storm drainage.

AMBRO was a major partner in conducting the Environmental Assessment (EA) for the reconstruction of multiple l’Hopital de l’Universite d’Etat d’Haiti buildings located on the hospital grounds in central Port-au-Prince, Haiti. The objective of the Environmental Assessment is to provide an issue-driven analysis of potential adverse environmental impacts stemming from the implementation of construction and reconstruction activities. The assessment is based on USAID Environmental Procedures (22 CFR 216). Findings of the EA will become the basis for the selection of a preferred alternative and will guide the environmental protection requirements to be applied by the principal contractor, subcontractors, and beneficiaries. The preparation of the Environmental Assessment must take into consideration the Government of Haiti’s environmental regulations that stipulate in The Decree on Environmental Management, Articles 56, 58, 59 that all entities planning activities with potential impact on the environment must prepare an environmental and social assessment at the expense of the entity proposing the activity. The Environmental Assessment will evaluate the environmental impact of the proposed activities, identify means to prevent negative environmental impact whenever possible, and recommend means to mitigate and monitor the environmental impacts that cannot be avoided.
