The government of Liberia through the National Fisheries and Aquaculture Authority
(NaFAA) has received support from the World Bank Group toward the implementation of the
“Liberia Sustainable Management of Fisheries Project (LSMFP)”, and intends to utilize part of
the funds for the updating of Mesurado Industrial Fishing Port and artisanal landing site ESIA
to ensure that the final assessment integrates both the geotechnical findings and the detailed
design, thereby providing a robust basis for environmental management, risk mitigation, and
regulatory approval.

The Government of Liberia through NaFAA is soliciting the services of a qualified Consultant
Firm or Consultant Consortia for provision of consultancy services to update the environmental
and social impact assessment for construction, operation and decommissioning of the
Mesurado Industrial Fishing Port and Artisanal Fish Landing Site and access road at the
Mesurado Pier, Coast Guard Base, Freeport of Monrovia.

The general objective of the assignment is to place particular emphasis on a comprehensive review and critical analysis of
the geotechnical data and design, with the aim of confirming that the findings of the
geotechnical studies fully support the requirements of the selected design. At the same time,
the updated ESIA will identify and assess potential adverse environmental and social impacts
associated with these geotechnical findings; examine project alternatives; identify ways of
improving project selection, siting, planning, design and implementation to apply the
mitigation hierarchy. Beyond impact identification, the Updated ESIA will prescribe
proportionate and practical mitigation measures while establishing clear processes, procedures,
and systems for effective environmental and social risk management. In doing so, the Updated
ESIA will provide a framework to guide decision-making across the construction, operation,
and decommissioning phases, ensuring alignment with national regulatory requirements,
international safeguard standards, and good international industry practice.

The National Fisheries and Aquaculture Authority (NaFAA) now invites eligible consulting
firms to indicate their interest in performing the Services. Interested firms must provide
information indicating that they are qualified to perform the services (brief corporate profile:
technical and managerial capability of the firm, description of similar assignments, experience
in similar conditions, availability of appropriate skills and staff, etc.)
