The development objective of the Mekong Integrated Water Resource Management Project for Lao People’s Democratic Republic is to establish key examples of integrated water resources management practices in the lower Mekong basin at the regional, national, and subnational levels, thus contributing to more sustainable river basin management in the lower Mekong. Some of the negative impacts and mitigation measures include: (1) reduce traffic, control noise, dust, vibration measures, landscaping; (2) ensure proper treatment of wastes and collection of garbage; (3) incorporate health and sanitation education program; (4) apply appropriate standards, size, and direction of the roads to minimize the impacts; selection of the route should be made through consultation with local people; safety and dust impacts during construction and operation should be considered; (5) install appropriate signs and cooperate with local residents to take actions to promote road safety; (6) avoidance of over watering; replacement of nutrients through crop rotation; accurate calculation of fertilizer requirements; and (7) establishment and enforcement of standards for wastewater use.
