Project Challenges
• Project slippage due to:
– Limited Cooperation amongst different role players • Industries: non-responsiveness to information requests
• Other Gov. Depts.: non-responsiveness to collaboration requests
• Lack of relevant data and information for EI
– Lack of effective project coordination and communication
– Un-clarified responsibilities for execution of project tasks
– Limited public awareness/interest on air pollution matters • Diminishing stakeholder participation
• lack of feedback on project from stakeholders

Lessons Learned
• Successful AQMP Development – requires – Stakeholder engagement via bilateral discussions
• Contracting must be specific and provide details of requirements and responsibilities (ToR & SLA) – Requirements definition, documentation, sign-off and understanding among
all stakeholders is imperative to project control and execution
• Professional project managers necessary to ensure successful project execution – Subject matter experts are not necessarily PMs
– Capacity in contract & project management is necessary
• Managing Expectations towards what can be achieved – Communication at all levels & all phases of the project
– Focusing on objectives of the project & understanding limitations

Next Steps
• Turning challenges into short & medium term AQM goals – Enhancing Reporting Systems
– Strengthening compliance and enforcement efforts wrt reporting requirements by industries
– Establish and support stakeholder forums to improve public awareness on AQ matters and cooperation amongst role players
• PSC members to brainstorm on menu of control strategies
• Draft AQMP to be developed and presented to stakeholders
• Based on stakeholder inputs, AQMP will be adopted
