Showairrej to Tak Harb Road Paving. Commander's Emergency Response Program, Ninewa Governorate, Iraq. Sustainment Assessment

Abstract

The objective of the project was to construct a new 11-kilometer asphalt road, with shoulders, from the main rural road to the villages of Showairrej, Taq Meka'ael, and Tak Harb, in the Ninewa governorate. This road serves multiple villages with large indigenous populations, bringing emergency services, transportation, and opportunity for commerce to this underdeveloped area. The contract included specific requirements for adhering to Iraqi Building Codes. On 13 September 2006, a firm-fixed-fee contract of $1,439,175 was awarded to a local contractor for the road paving. Project Assessment Objectives. The objective of this project assessment was to provide real-time relief and reconstruction project information to interested parties to enable appropriate action, when warranted. Specifically, the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction determined whether the project was operating at the capacity stated in the original contract. To accomplish the objective, the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction determined if the project was at full capability or capacity when accepted by the United States government, when transferred to Iraqi operators, and during the site inspection on 19 September 2007.
