MCC is a U.S. government agency focused on assisting countries dedicated to good governance, economic freedom, and investments in people. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Compact, related agreements, and the availability of funds, the Government intends to use a portion of the funds to finance Project Preparation and Technical Supervision services. The Compact tentatively includes investment from MCC of up to US$500 million and an additional US$130 million from the Government, for a total of approximately US$630 million. The Compact includes two projects: (i) construction of about 300 kilometers of 400kV electricity transmission lines, three substations, and technical assistance for the power sector; and (ii) technical assistance to improve the road maintenance regime and road maintenance works on about 300 kilometers of the strategic road network. The program would include the procurement of contractors and consultants for design, construction and supervision of electricity lines and substations, road maintenance works, including a variety of technical services, equipment and construction works in different geographic locations within Nepal.
