Chapter 1 - Introduction
The Performance Certificate (at the end of Liability Period) and the Final Payment Certificate
were issued on 30th July 2012 and 31st July 2012 respectively and the contract package
concluded successfully.
contract amount. Contractor repaired and rehabilitated about 3,700 meters length of
roadway.
At KM 146 (Soung Town) and PK 155 urban sections, the floor level of shops and building at
both side of road are higher than road level. In Soung the inlet level of LHS the mixed sewer
line and storm drainage pipe is above road level so after rain these conduits overflow the
water to the low level road that damages the pavement repeatedly. At KM 145+700 the petrol
station concrete slab connects 3 streets together and sends all rain water to the roadway.
The road in this section is DBST with no side ditch for drainage so the saturated base course
is damaged frequently. This problem referred to Contractor for urgent repair that necessary
work order was issued and the Contractor reconstructed 430m of the roadway in Soung, the
road level was heightened 50 cm and paved by AC during rainy season. If this urgent repair
was not done the NR7 would be closed at this section.
Following heavy rain and overflow of Mekong, a major flood damaged this road especially
between PK 139 to PK 157 that the high volume of runoff from high land (LHS) flowed over
the carriageway for more than 24 hours after each rainfall. This section had been repaired
after rainy season 2012 that in 2013 was damaged again and shall be repaired. RAMP has
applied to obtain the NOL for $ 47,831 additional fund required for remaining urgent flood
damage repair. In beginning of December 2013 the supplement to contract agreement for
$47,831 was confirmed by IDA and exchanged with Contractor. The implementation of 2013
flood damage repair progress was completed by end of January 2014.
new defects that observed during site visit on 2nd September 2013 by Project Director, was
repaired by Contractor.
After flooding in October 2013, some sections of road were damaged and potholes were
appeared. As the remaining contract amount was sufficient for repair of additional new
defects for this contract package, additional fund was not required, the contractor that was
committed to repair new defects during Liability Period, was instructed to proceed the repair
work immediately.
Kuy Leang Ky Construction Trading Group Co., Ltd. (KLK), a national construction company,
is the Contractor of this civil work contract. The start date was 14th December 2011, the
works and VO Nº1 substantially completed on 23rd June 2013.
Due to additional works, i.e. Employer‟s decision to add 3 km road maintenance (PK137-
PK140) on NR71, reconstruction of collapsed pipe culvert and increase in quantities of BOQ,
a variation ($ 0.216 million) proposed and after obtaining NOL from IDA, implemented.
The works including VO No.1, substantially had been completed by 23rd June 2013 but after
rain in June – July 2013 some sections of the road due to lack of appropriate drainage
system and base saturation were damaged. The Contractor started the repair and completed
the repair works before scheduled date for handing over to DPWT.
After flood in October 2013 some sections of PR2714 submerged and traffic flow was
disrupted for couple of day though the extent of flood damage was limited but due to
submerged and saturated base many potholes on the sections that had only been treated by
SBST, were appeared that need to be repaired urgently, to prevent further deterioration of
pavement. RAMP management has applied to obtain NOL from IDA for $ 97,342 additional
fund required for urgent flood damage repair. In beginning of December the supplement to
contract agreement for $47,831; was confirmed by IDA and exchanged with Contractor. The
implementation of 2013 flood damage repair progress was 30% by end of January 2014.
package. During a meeting with Employer, Contractor and Consultant, the Contractor was
advised to provide uninterrupted supply of stone chips for SBST.
The extended delay and low rate of progress was discussed with the Contractor during
numerous management meetings that were held on site and in Project Director Office.
Consequently, the Engineer representative issued a contractual notice to Contractor for
acceleration and resolving the shortage of stone chips for SBST. The Contractor blames the
extended delay on payment as the main reason for delay.
During restoration of the eroded side slope of embankment fill (executed in 2000‟s) some
UXO‟s shells were found that immediately (CMAC) was contacted and the area was
barricaded safely, after measurement and invitation of an authorized agency for detection
and clearing of UXO and approval of variation the clearance activities started immediately
and completed.
Under direction of RAMP Management and ADB and close cooperation between the
Contractor and Consultant the remaining SBST and shoulder works efficiently completed and
procedure for Taking-over were initiated by Contractor.
Their achieved accumulative progress to the end of this period is 89.39% against the revised
schedule of 100%.
The achieved accumulative physical progress up to end of this period is 25.30% against the
revised schedule‟s 58.03%.
Road flooded PK139+000 to PK142+000 (NR7) Road flooded PK139+000 to PK142+000 (NR7)
The flood damage repair under 3 supplementary contract agreements for NR7.1, NR73 and
NR71/PR2714 where implemented for detailed report please refer to the related section of this
report.
- Filling up the drainage system of roadway, the water stranded in pavement layers
destroy the asphaltic wearing courses, creates big potholes and dangerous condition
that may cause fatal accidents.
- Construction of new building or paved area (i.e. fuel stations that increase the volume
of runoff 10 to 50 times more, they make these wide impervious areas above the road
level. Also wrongly, instead to drain the backside of the developed land towards the
near low land, direct the flow and collect it all toward the frontage and a huge volume of
water is sent to roadway unnecessarily.
Due to the above mentioned problems many technical, drainage and contractual problems
have been imposed upon RAMP during maintenance work in 2011, 2012 on NR1, NR5,
NR7, NR71/PR2714, and NR11. For example the new pavement repairs and sealed on
many section of NR7 were destroyed due to the same problem. When before rainy season
the Contractor had proceeded to open side ditch for drainage the occupants of the ROW or
adjacent properties/lands prevented them of excavation of side drainage ditch within MPWT
lands (ROW), the Provincial DPW did not assist the Contractor to carry out the necessary
drainage need.
To minimize the current problem and to prevent a much bigger problems for drainage of road
system in future it is recommended that MPWT with coordination with other RGC units shall
put an end to this problem and by introducing a procedure for issuing permission for land
development including:
- Access to the road without disturbing the side slope, side ditch or occupying the ROW
that is property of MPWT
- Payment for land they occupy temporarily for making driveway between the boundary
of their land (ROW Limit) and shoulder of the road. Obligation to follow MPWT standard
and construct or pay for the widening of entry and exist as well as the covered side
ditch at drive way. Commitment to return the land back to MPWT for road widening in
future
- Provision of an appropriate drainage system for inside the property that is not drained
into the roadway or its related drainage system.
This is to inform MPWT of the adverse effects of noncompliance with necessary
development regulation hopefully by enforcing the existing regulation and introducing
additional regulations and procedural steps for issuing development approvals for their
access to the road network, these problems will be reduced and minimized soon.

The ESS/RE/ATL will pay particular attention to this area and advise the contractor
accordingly as to the proper procedure to be followed and the necessary permits which
have to be obtained before commencement of work. The ESS made numerous site
visits every month and under guidance by SEO, RAMP PD and TL effectively attended
to the important tasks outlined in the Environmental and Social Safe Guard Framework
of RAMP. The ESS also meets with local/community people living along the national
road where the road project traverse to discuss issues or environmental problem or
other social related issue/concern. All issues or concerns will be discussed with TL and
PD before further implementation of the road maintenance activity.
The ESS/RE/ATL visited NR2, NR11, NR7.1, NR7.2 and NR7.3 to investigate on
environment and social related issue.
Also Consultant‟s ESS assisted RAMP Management team on preparation of
Environmental Social Safeguard required for loan application for RAMP additional
financing proposal.
Following are the site observations and discussions during the visits.
It is observed that there is no environmental and social impact in the project area
according to site investigation in this quarter.
Generally, however, all road projects are limited to only repair on the existing paved
road and not widening or cause resettlement. It is concluded that the maintenance
activities in every road sections cause no adverse environmental and social impact on
lands or communities in the area.

6.3. Summary
This contract package that is continuation of NR5.1 starts from PK 91+100 (Kampong
Chhnang City) to PK 170+900 in Pursat Province.
The Contractor was Se Yong (Korean) – The civil work contract was signed on 11th
March 2011 and commenced on 1st April 2011. The work substantially completed on
31st August 2012.
The maintenance works substantially completed on 31st August 2012, the Defect
Notification Period expired by end of August 2013, the Performance Certificate was
issued on 4th September 2013.
This section of NR5 between Kampong Chhnang (PK91+100) to Krakor (PK170+900)
stretches along Tonle Sap Lake. This is the nearest road to the edge of the lake.
During wet season, the lake surface area increases from 2,500 sq.km to 16,000 sq.km.
This stretch of road is exposed to runoff and flood from high land as well as the raised
water level of lake that covers both sides of this road for couple of months. Due to
these phenomena, the sustainable road within fringe of Tonlé Sap Lake; shall be
constructed appropriately with higher embankment and sufficient drainage system to
withstand the annual flooding and saturation.
The existing NR5.2 (PK91+100-PK170+900) with shallow embankment, lack of
drainage system are exposed to the annual flood, washout and base saturation, suffers
of extensive damages, heavy potholes and serious disturbance for couple of months
every year that requires time and hefty expenses for repair and maintenance of the
road. Contractor had to attend to the repair that potholes during and after rainy season
in 2011 and 2012.
After implementation of repair works for strengthening of the pavement structure and
repairing the base course failures, due to annual flood, the works handed over to
DPWT on 1st June 2013.

machinery, workers, material and intensified the repair works. Also in response to the
repeated instruction by Engineer and Employer, a qualified site manager was
employed and started his work on site.
The acute shortage of stone chips in this area due to other major projects in the same
region is the major problem for progress of maintenance work for this road and other
roads in the region.
There are a few sand producing units between Km 61 to 64, the frequent traffic of very
heavy delivery trucks caused heavy damages to the pavement structure. This problem
brought to attention of the Employer to discuss with local authorities, to be resolved.
The persisting problem of shortage of crushed aggregates for base course, SBST and
inability of Contractor to resolve this problem, jeopardized the timely completion of this
package. During a meeting with Employer, Contractor and Consultant, the Contractor
was advised to provide uninterrupted supply of stone chips for SBST.
The extended delay and low rate of progress was discussed with the Contractor during
numerous management meetings that were held on site and in Project Director Office.
Consequently, the Engineer representative issued a contractual notice to Contractor for
acceleration and resolving the shortage of stone chips for SBST. The Contractor
blames the extended delay on payment as the main reason for delay.
During restoration of the eroded side slope of embankment fill (executed in 2000‟s)
some UXO‟s shells were found that immediately (CMAC) was contacted and the area
was barricaded safely, after measurement and invitation of an authorized agency for
detection and clearing of UXO and approval of variation the clearance activities started
immediately and completed.
Under direction of RAMP Management and ADB and close cooperation between the
Contractor and Consultant the remaining SBST and shoulder works efficiently
completed and procedure for Taking-over were initiated by Contractor.

12.1. General Contract Data
Package Nº RAMP-CW-AW.4.1
Donors ADB/OFID/RGC
the Contractor for rectification of their deficiencies and strengthening of their site
management and establishing an effective QA/QC system.
To enhance the Contractor‟s QA/QC system and work organisation the Engineer in
pursuant to sub-clause 6.9 required the Contractor‟s incompetent Project Manager to
be replaced with an qualified one. The new Project Manager started his work on 5th
August 2013. The extensive defects on the executed works together with the emphasis
of Project Director on quality works, convinced the Contractor to move forward for
improvement of his QA/QC system. Supervision Consultant assists and monitors the
Contractor efforts for this important issue.
The key elements for a successful project are the availability of fund, project
management and a competent contractor. In this contract, combination of extended
delay on payments, Contractor‟s short coming on site management and quality control
faced this package with a high risk of failure.
By 21st November 2013 eventually the obstacles on the payments by efforts of the
related parties were removed and the OFID portion (70.71%) of IPC Nº 1 & 2 were
paid. After Contractor received payments for IPC 1&2 from OFID could strengthen his
financial condition and supply the bitumen to site that could execute 7 Km of AC
overlay. Contractor was advised to increase his efforts to complete more base failure
repair to be able to complete the whole works before the load closure date of June 30,
2014. Unfortunately, the delays on payments for IPC Nº5 and 6 prevented the
Contractor to continue uninterrupted progress.

Road Asset Management Project (RAMP)
Maintenance Construction Supervision Consultant
In association with
The Royal Government of Cambodia (RGC) is implementing the Road Asset Management Project
(RAMP) with supports from the International Development Association (IDA), ADB, AUSAID,
OPEC, and KTF. The activities will include periodic maintenance of the National and Provincial
Roads under the responsibility of the Ministry of Public Works and Transport (MPWT).
The objective of the project is to ensure continued effective use of the road network in support of
Cambodia's economic development. It will do so by improving the institutional and technical
capacity of the Ministry of Public Works and Transport (MPWT) for road maintenance planning,
budgeting and operations, and by expanding and strengthening maintenance activities. The
outcome will be a more sustainable road sector based on a sound MPWT network and sustained
road maintenance.
The Contractors are made aware of this obligation and their safeguard performance during
construction will be closely supervised and monitored by the Project Engineers with close
supervision of the Project Supervision Consultants.
In the RAMP-MPWT project, environmental and social impacts of the projects were identified in the
Environmental and Social Safeguard Framework (ESSF) and the mitigation measures of these
impacts have been addressed through Environmental Management Plan (EMP) submitted by
Contractors before commencement of construction work. The protection and enhancement of
human-wellbeing is a common demonstrator for both government and donors system and can be
seen as ultimate goal of sustainable development.
Prior to the road maintenance activity there ESS conducted meeting with local authorities in the
project influence area to create a sense of social, environmental and safety awareness within all
construction activities. During the meeting the complaint mechanism was also introduced to
commune council as well as local community living along the road project.
The purpose of meeting with local authority (commune councils) is not only to hear complaints,
social and environmental impacts and satisfaction with the maintenance project but also to verify
and confirm whether or not HIV/AIDS campaigns are conducted in the project influence area. In
addition, it is an effective public disclosure of safeguard information to local authorities.
The ESS explained and discussed impact mitigation measures during the field visit to Contractors,
Engineer and RE‟s of the project, if there is, in order to comply with EMP set in the Technical
Specification. It is observed that, however, there is no adverse environmental and social impact to
local community along the project influence area during civil works of road construction.
The ESS/RE/TL visited NR2, NR11, NR7.1, NR7.2 and NR7.3 to investigate on environment and
social related issues during and after maintenance projects.
Following are the site observations and discussions during the visits:
It is observed that there was no serious environmental and social impact in the project area
according to site investigation in this month. However, there were a few minor points that were
noticed: a) In NR2 worker‟s toilet need repair, b) Clearance of rubbish around the campsite to
mitigate these problems, ESS advised the related workers for cleanness and importance of
hygiene in personal health and keep clean environment.
Generally, however, all road projects are limited to maintenance on the existing paved road and no
widening or cause resettlement. It is concluded that the maintenance activities in every road
sections cause no adverse environmental and social impact on lands or communities in the area.
Below is the summarize table of the environmental and social safeguard monitoring report:
