Environmental Mitigation and Monitoring Report (EMMR)

Environmental Mitigation and Monitoring Reports (EMMRs) are required for USAID-funded projects when the 22 CFR 216 documentation governing the project impose conditions on at least one project/activity component. EMMRs ensure that the ADS 204.3.3 requirements for reporting on environmental compliance are met. EMMRs are used to report on the status of mitigation and monitoring efforts in accordance with IEE requirements over the preceding project implementation period. They are typically provided annually, but the frequency will be stipulated in the IEE. Responsibility for developing the EMMRs lies with USAID, but EMMRs are usually prepared by the Implementing Partner (IP) and submitted to USAID.
