THE LAKE AND THE BASIN
LVBC
Four main types impacting the LVB:
Stresses within the lake – over-fishing, untreated liquid wastes, water hyacinth, over-abstraction
Stresses on littoral zones – construction and farming in shoreline, conversion of wetlands, poor solid wastes management
Stresses from the basin – land degradation, deforestation, inflow of water hyacinth, pollution from agro-chemicals, sediment loads, poor solid waste management
Stresses from outside the basin – nutrients (N and P) transported into the basin by air, climate change
Deteriorating water quality – caused by increased sedimentation, and pollution and eutrophication
Fluctuating lake levels – due to unsustainable LVB water management practices
Overexploitation of natural resources – caused by increased basin population and competition over natural resources
Resurgence of water hyacinth
Climate change
CHALLENGES: Environmental stresses in the Basin
LVBC
• Stresses within the lake
Stresses from the basin
Stresses on littoral zones
Stresses from outside the basin –
Environmental stress within the LVB
LVBC Environmental Stress in LVB
• Stresses within the lake – – e.g., over-fishing, oil spills, untreated
liquid wastes, water hyacinth, over-abstraction of water from the lake and its basin.
– Fish Frame-survey 2012 shows overfishing of through increase of illegal gillnet by 26% but mostly for 2 ½” and 3 ½”There was a serious increase in legal nets of size > 10 by 343% and the 10” by 156% compared to 2010 Survey.
– In 2005 average BOD in, 5000Kg day respectively in major cities
Littoral zones e.g., construction and farming in shoreline, conversion of wetlands, poor solid wastes management.estimated about 75% of Lake Victoria’s wetland area has been affected significantly by human activity
• Stresses from outside the basin nutrients (N
and P) transported into the basin by air, climate change. In 2005/6 estimated atmospheric depositions accounted for about 60% of the total Phosphorus and over 80% of the total N loading to the lake.
• Stresses from the basin– e.g., land degradation, deforestation,
inflow of water hyacinth, pollution from agro-chemicals, sediment loads, poor solid waste management.
– Water hyacinth coverage in 2010 Kenya 10,000ha and TZ=540ha.
– The deforestation rate is estimated to be 55,000 to 100,000 ha per year, based on habitat change from 1990-1995.

LVBC OPPORTUNITIES
LVBC
LVBC
REDD+ refers to Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and forest Degradation and also sustainable forest management, conservation and enhancement of forest carbon stocks.
A REDD+ program can encompass a range of activities within a designated area, e.g: tree planting, agroforestry, training & education, microfinance.
Governments – including Uganda & Kenya are developing national REDD+ strategies applying general UNFCCC guidelines and with donor support.
Carbon markets can help to finance sustainable land management activities for the benefit of communities, global and local environment.
Sub-national (project-based) initiatives can help increase national capacity, and provide additional resources to the national REDD+ program.
The LVBC would like to work with relevant partners to develop a trans-boundary, sub-national REDD+ initiative in the Mt. Elgon area.
Introduction to REDD+006 - REDD+ FOR MT. ELGON ECOSYSTEM PROJECT CONCEPT NOTE
LVBC
An international performance-based system is being developed for REDD+ under the UNFCCC.
Voluntary carbon market standards have methodologies that allow sub-national projects to receive carbon credits for REDD+ activities. These follow the same principles that non-forestry UNFCCC carbon credit projects.
Long-term the funding is likely to come from the private sector, through markets. Total value of carbon market in 2011 was over 176 Billion US dollars.
The Mt Elgon REDD+ initiative will seek to use voluntary carbon market funding for activities, AND will complement the national systems that are being developed.
REDD+ Contd..
LVBC
1. To create a framework for a trans-boundary sub-national REDD+ programme including shared methodology components, monitoring system, and harmonized governance mechanisms.
2. Implement at least 2 distinct REDD+ projects, one in Kenya and in Uganda, which can be a national REDD+ demonstration pilot for each country.
1. To define & agree on ecosystem boundary, map activities, and land use patterns.
2. To establish appropriate institutional infrastructure3. To assess potential benefits from, and negative impacts of,
REDD+ activities:4. To assist with the identification, implementation and
management of project activities by REDD+ proponents.5. To assist with the promotion and funding of the REDD+
projects.

Carbon Markets: What are they?
LVBC
• Kenya developed its National Climate Change Response Strategy (NCCRS) in 2010, and other policy initiatives to tackle climate change issues have since been developed. REDD+ is an important component of Kenya’s strategy. Vision 2030 also enshrines relevant environmental goals, e.g. in protecting Kenya’s “Water Towers”.
• Kenya an Uganda is supported in national REDD+ strategy development from the World Bank and other donors. GoK intends to
develop sub-national pilots.• The National REDD+ initiative is with the Ministry of Water and
Environment in Uganda. • A number of consultations have already been carried out, lead by IUCN in
this region.
REDD+ in Kenya and Uganda (1/2)
LVBC
• Initiated in 2011 by MERECP, and finalized in 2012.• Mt Elgon is a critical, shared forest area and watershed for both
Kenya and Uganda and it is under threat.• Strong support from both Governments, input from NGOs (e.g.
IUCN), input from communities (workshops).• Discussions on the main drivers of forest cover change, existing
interventions and possible new interventions.• Strategy suggested phasing, local governance structures, benefit

Water hyacinth Eichhornia crassipes (Mart) Solms is a perennial plant native to tropical America.
First noted in East Africa in the 1930s and in Lake Victoria in 1989- Uganda& Tanzania and in 1990 in Kenya
Officially recognized a noxious invasive weed in the late 1980’s In Uganda, weed control efforts began in 1993 by involving the local
communities. In 1995 Tanzania implemented an integrated noxious weed management
control (bioligical, manual &, quarantine regulations and s control of nutrient influxes )
In Kenya the weed coverage was at 17,200ha by 1998 (4Njoka and Kusewa, 2006).
Weed control involved biological methods using weevils and mites and a mechanical harvesting at peak infestation in 1998
mechanical removal supported by biological control and sustainable manual removal programmes are the most viable options
need for strong coordination of weed control programs by the lake basin governments.

OBJECTIVES
LVBC
Project Area The main project area is Lake Victoria ie major ports and bays in each of the three
East African countries.
Project implementation Approach The project will be implemented in the entire Lake Victoria and rivers focusing on areas
infested by water hyacinth. LVBC will coordinate (establishment of institutional frameworks, capacity building,
implementation processes). Implementation will involve relevant government departments, LVBC, private sector,
existing local communities and other stakeholders. Government agencies and other stakeholders will provide technical support and also
oversee implementation to ensure further sustainability of project.
Monitoring and Evaluation Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) will form an integral part of the project planning and
implementation process. The process will adopt the following approach; Carry out at least one quarterly monitoring and evaluation exercise at the cluster levels Carry out at least two monitoring and evaluation exercises per year at the national level Prepare monitoring and evaluation reports A midterm evaluation will be undertaken after 2½ years
