Being the first large-scale hydropower project in Cambodia the Kamchay Dam should be considered an important test case which can provide valuable insight into the appropriateness of the regulatory framework and the associated implementation procedures. This study focuses on some of the post-project social and environmental impacts associated with the dam’s construction. The implementation of mitigation measures stated in the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA) is examined and the impacts experienced by local communities are researched and analyzed.
