MICI-BID-AR-2021-0167

Project to Improve the Provincial Route 82 Corridor In the Province Of Mendoza

Country: Argentina

Reception date: June, 3 2021

Current Status: Closed

Requesters:

Four residents of the Chacras de Coria District, Lujan de Cuyo Department, Mendoza Province, Argentina.

Summary of the Request

The Request describes potential harm to the Requester’s property, as well as to their living conditions, due to the construction and commissioning of Provincial Route No. 82, Section End of Corridor III, Gobernador Ortiz.

Specifically, the Request alleges that the price offered for the future expropriation of an event hall, owned by the Requesters, does not correspond to a fair compensation, since it does not contemplate the investments made to it. They also allege a direct impact to its economy, since the living room represents the only income available for the family, so the fair price of the expropriation does not contemplate future lost profits.

Finally, they also report on the lack of information on the works and the absence of public consultation on the impacts of the Project.

Recent actions

On June 9, 2021, the Request was not registered since, as the Mechanism is a last resort instance, it is necessary for the Requesters to contact the Project Team (Management). They were notified that there is always the possibility of resubmitting the Request to the MICI if they consider that their concerns have not been addressed within a reasonable period of time. The Parties were notified and the MICI process was concluded.

It is important to note that the Notification of Non-Registration is not an assessment of the merits of the Request, or the issues presented in it. Nor is it a determination of compliance or non-compliance by the IDB with respect to its Pertinent Operational Policies.
