DOMINICAN DOMINICAN REPUBLIC REPUBLIC IDENTIFICATION OF THE PROBLEMS AND CONSTRAINS AFFECTING THE PREPARATION OF THE INITIAL NATIONAL COMMUNICATION TO THE UNFCCC INSTITUNIONAL ARRANGEMENTS ARRANGEMENTS INSTITUNIONAL Problems and Constraints • Institunional Problems transfering the coordination of the project to the Secretariat of Environment and Natural Resourse • The Informacion on the computer were all clean up TECHNICAL TECHNICAL PROBLEMS PROBLEMS FACING FACING GHG GHG INVENTORY INVENTORY The major problems that we have been facing are: a) Statistical information no available in the diferent sectors(energy,industry,agriculure, land use, land use change and forestry, solvent and solid waste) b) The support of technician in the differen sectors c) No sufficient aid from the official and private sector d) The not consistency of the data e) Some time we receive data that not have any value for the inventory For example Dominican Republic National Office of Statístics Statistics Econimic Department Importation Price of Solvents Products , Scencial oil and Cosmétics 1994 Party Duty and Country 2707.10.00 Benzene Unite State Price CIF (US$) 2,511 2,511 Problems Problems and and Constraints(V&A). Constraints(V&A). • Lack of specific training in sectoral V&A • The statisticals data time series ( Rainfall and Temperature1961-90) were inconsistants in some years • Lack of statistical information about Malaria and Dengue incidence • The data from National Meteorology Office were in different computer language format Problems and and Constraints Constraints Reserch Reserch and and Problems Systematic Obserbation Obserbation Systematic • Lack of appropiate tool and equipment necesary to make systematic obserbations • Insufficient economic resources for research • Lack of existing data and information in GHG requiring reserch and obserbation activitie. Problems and and Constraints Constraints Abatement Abatement Option Option Problems We had made few in this sector. n Some options have bee taking into considerations n Save in energy consumption n The government had build rampart in flooding areas n The tourism sector change the model of building Problems and and Constraints Constraints Problems Education/Training and and Public Public Education/Training Awareness Awareness • Very low level of awareness by ordinary population • Workshop with the Secretariat of Education Promoters • Chats in public and private school and universities • We are already in the process of finishing our web page design. Problems and constraints related to the availability of resourse -Four workshop were giving to experts from public and private sector, and ONGs (GHG energy sector, vulnerability and adaptation, GHG inventory in all the sectors, and the creation of the inventory work group and the national committee of climate) - We need Financing of Climate Change Enabling Activities (Phase II) -We ready receive software and technical material from UNFCCC and IPCC -We have office equipment and supplies facilities CONCLUSION The Dominican Green Houses Gases Inventory Tabla I.
