The Environmental Information and
Monitoring Program (EIMP)
aims at establishing national environmental
monitoring program for ambient air and coastal waters.
A
reference laboratory is established to assist contracted national
monitoring institutions in the development of quality assurance
systems. An important output from the program will be environmental
quality data and database systems which will form an integral part
of EEAA's Environmental Information Center. The program, which
started in January 1996, was originally a five-year program with a
total budget of US$ 14.9 million.
A DANIDA Review
mission visiting the EIMP in October 1997 recommended that the
program was extended with 3½ years and that the DANIDA grant was
increased with 2.1 million USD thus bringing the total EIMP budget
to US$ 17 million.
