1. HIGHLIGHTS

Rainy Season: The rainy season has begun to limit humanitarian cargo deliveries throughout South Sudan, the East, and the Transitional Areas.  Rains have begun in Darfur but have not yet had any significant affect on access.   By the end of July, rains are forecast to cover the entire Darfur region.   Meteorological forecasts for July-August-September predict above average rainfall over most of Sudan particularly in the West and average rainfall over the more southern regions.  (Source: WFP)

Doubling of Oil Refinery Output: The Khartoum Refinery - the only oil plant in Sudan - has completed expansion to 100,000 barrels per day following an upgrading of the plant which doubled its capacity.  This expansion may assist in preventing seasonal fuel shortages in Sudan. (Source: CNPC Website).

Limited Stocks: Following the completion of pre-rainy season distributions, NFI CP stocks will be greatly depleted.  With the continued trend of displacements, distributions will need to be carefully targeted in order to ensure that stocks are available for the neediest beneficiaries.  While some stocks are expected into the pipeline in July, most of the stocks will not reach the pipeline until September. 

2. SECURITY/ACCESS

Darfur
UN Humanitarian Access: The Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ June 25 statement on the suspension of UN activities in the Darfurs, except for WFP and UNICEF, had some effect on operations in West Darfur, less in South Darfur, and little in North Darfur.  The suspension was reversed the next day on June 26.  

Humanitarian Access:  OCHA has released an updated map of humanitarian access in Darfur.  According to the map as of June 7, there was no humanitarian access in the Kulbus region of West Darfur, eastern Jebel Marra, northern North Darfur and around El Taweisha town in North Darfur.  For further details, the map is available under the maps section on the Relief Web Sudan section at http://www.reliefweb.int/rw/RWB.NSF/db900SID/JOPA-6QZHKU?OpenDocument&rc=1&emid=ACOS-635PJQ. 

Vehicle Hijackings:  Local media (Al Sudani) have reported that more than 300 trucks have been seized to date in Darfur.

North Darfur: Northern North Darfur remained inaccessible to humanitarian operations in June (see humanitarian access map above).  UN officials have travelled to the area to discuss humanitarian access issues with SLA representatives but an agreement has not yet been signed.  Insecurity has prevented WFP from accessing 250,000 persons with food distributions.   Following a WFP and UNDSS security assessment, the road linking Kebkabiyah and Saraf Omra has been declared ‘Go’. (Source: WFP)

Chadian rebels have attacked Tine in Chad and are expected to be hijacking vehicles for logistical purposes, supplies, fuel. Extreme caution has been recommended in that area.

West Darfur: Commercial traffic continues to operate in all area except Masteri – Kango Haraza without significant problems.  Following the killing of two youths in Sirba by unknown men on June 7, Arab nomads blocked the area, banning all food distributions and the passage of traffic.  As a result, humanitarian organizations temporarily stopped operations in the area.   

South Darfur: UNDSS and GOS security officials have established rapid mobile patrols near UN buildings in order to decrease robberies and break-ins.  UNDSS has advised caution in Kalma Camp in Sectors 1, 2, 3 and 7 due to banditry and violence as some humanitarian organizations have had their projects damaged.  Following a meeting with concerned IDP sheikhs, and the Norwegian Refugee Council (camp coordinator) the African Union restarted patrols in Kalma camp at the end of June. 

South Sudan
Security Advisory:  The Nimule-Adjumani road in Eastern Equatoria and Uganda remains no-go. Due  to recent ambushes on Juba – Mongala and  Juba  –  Torit  roads,  all  UN  agencies and implementing partners  are advised to ensure that any move along these roads is undertaken only with strong armed escort and all movements be prior cleared by the DDO through UNDSS, South Sudan.

The following locations in Juba town have been declared off limits for all UN staff (Mission, Agency, Programs and Funds) and the implementing partners: (1) “KOLOLO Bar” – all time until further notice.  (2) Konyo Konyo Market – Between 2000 hrs and 0700 hrs daily.  Any staff member found at these locations will be liable to be charged with misconduct. (Source: UNDSS)

The security situation in Juba and the surrounding areas was unstable in June amidst armed bandit attacks and other gunfights near the town.  In addition, according to UNHCR, there have been reports that the LRA has been displaced from Uganda into Sudan.

Repatriation from the Democratic Republic of Congo: The repatriation of refugees from the Democratic republic of Congo (DRC) to Yei, which had been on hold due to insecurity, was launched on June 7 with the first convoy of refugees returning home from Orieale Province. This first convoy arrived at the newly-opened Alero way station in Yei County.  (Source: UNHCR)

Rest of Sudan
Abyei: WFP-HAS flights were temporarily suspended to Abyei due to heavy rainfall in June.  UNMIS continued to report access problems beyond Abyei town in June. 

South Kordofan: Since the shooting of an UNMIS staff member on June 2 between Kadugli Town and Tillo, a travel advisory limited movement by UN agencies within Kadugli Town, Kauda, Julud, Dilling and Talodi.

Blue Nile: UN agency staff were stopped by the authorities of Kurmuk and prevented from travelling without a travel permit.  The head of the local intelligence office (SPLM) threatened the UN staff with imprisonment, if they disobeyed his instructions again.  (Source: UNMIS)

Eastern Sudan:  The UN still does not have unimpeded access beyond Port Sudan and Kassala Town.  The lack of access is greatly limiting humanitarian operations in the region.

Accessing UNMIS Spare Cargo Capacity: To apply to UNMIS Air, Rail, Surface Transport and Barge Service spare cargo capacity fill out the UNMIS Request Form (CMR) at http://www.unjlc.org/sudan/transport/air/cargo_passenger/ and submit to the UNJLC office for authorization before taking the form to UNMIS Movcon for processing.   Forms should be submitted to UNMIS Movcon from 0800-1300.  UNMIS can not accept any CMR for cargo less than 20KG because the cargo is easy to lose.

UNJLC Logistics Coordination Meetings: UNJLC holds weekly or fortnightly logistics coordination meetings in Khartoum, El Fasher, El Geneina, Nyala, and Juba.  In addition, there is a monthly logistics coordination meeting in Zalingei.  All interested organizations are encouraged to attend.  For more information, please contact sarah.mcniece@wfp.org or the local UNJLC Logistics Officer. 

The July meeting schedule is:

Location	Time and Date
Khartoum, UNDP Conference Room	July 6 & 20 at 1400
Juba, OCHA	July 12 & 26 at 1530
El Fasher, OCHA	July 4 &18  at 1530
Geneina, OCHA	July 25 at 0930
Nyala, OCHA	July 4, 11, 18, 25 at 0900

Central Equatoria Government: The Government of South Sudan has announced that while Juba will be the capital of South Sudan, Yei will be the capital of Central Equatoria State, necessitating the transfer of Central Equatoria authorities and state apparatus to Yei from Juba. (Source: UNHCR)

Warehousing: The shortage of adequate storage facilities during the rainy season has become a major problem to many agencies. In Juba, the government warehouses which had been rented by humanitarian agencies have had to be returned because of the arrival of government equipment.

Customs: In South Sudan, humanitarian goods are frequently taxed indirectly due to charges on private transporters that are passed on to the humanitarian agency.   In addition, South Sudan customs authorities for the different states also have their own rules and regulation pertaining items coming to their respective states, regardless of whether the item has already been cleared by the GOSS.  The GOSS Ministry of Finance plans to issue directives on custom issues in early July after the formation of independent commissions on the subject.

4. SHELTER & NON-FOOD ITEMS

Darfur
UNJLC Darfur NFI Coordinator:  Alister Shields will replace Katie Inglis as the Darfur NFI Coordinator in July.  Alister can be reached at Alister.Shields@wfp.org, +249 (0) 912391044.

Limited Stocks: Following the completion of pre-rainy season distributions, NFI CP stocks will be greatly depleted.  With the continued trend of displacements, distributions will need to be carefully targeted in order to ensure that stocks are available for the neediest beneficiaries.   While some stocks are expected into the pipeline in July, additional stocks will not reach the pipeline until September. 

Distribution of Common Pipeline NFIs:  In June, distributions of Common Pipeline NFIs reached 44,032 households as agencies completed their pre-rainy season distributions.  The following agencies distributed Common Pipeline NFIs in June: Mercy Corps, UNHCR, Relief International, JRS, Samaritans, Great Family, Oxfam, MDM, UNFPA, IRC, IOM, Solidarite, Italian Cooperation, WHO, UNICEF, CHF International, Tearfund, and Concern.  The commodities were 83,848 blankets, 40,883 items of women’s clothing, 38,653 pieces of plastic sheeting, 95,313 sleeping mats, 48,561 jerry cans, 65,952 pieces of sanitary material, 15,673 buckets, and 2 latrine slabs. The commodities were distributed to the following locations: South Darfur – Abu Ajura, Abu Jabra, Al Salam, Beliel, Gereida, Hijaar, Kalma, Kass, Khor Omer, Magarine, Menawashi, Marla, Mershing, Muhajariya, Nyala, Nyama, Otash, Sania Afandu, Shaeria, Um Kurdud, Um Kunya, Um Safati, Yassin; North Darfur – Abu Sakin, Gebr El Khanan, Hai Abassi, Kafout, Lumbati, and Teiger; West Darfur – Ararah, Beida, Seleia, Um Shalaya, Mukjar and Zalingei.

Following delays caused by organized obstruction by IDP leadership, the NFI distributions in Riyadh camp, West Darfur were completed in June.  In addition, distributions in Beida were completed following the distributions to nomadic Dombas as a gesture of goodwill and integration.  

In addition, the Darfur NFI Common Pipeline supported community projects by providing sanitary materials and plastic sheeting to health centers (including a ward for acute watery diarrhea patients), maternity clinic, training centers for women, child friendly spaces, and youth centers. 

As part of these distributions, the NFI Common Pipeline donated sleeping mats, sanitary materials, plastic sheeting, and blankets to IOM to support Dinka returnees who had to remain in Nyala due to the rainy season.

Distribution Reports:  Organizations distributing CP NFIs are reminded that they are required to complete Distribution Reports and submit them to UNJLC. 

Zalingei: On June 11 UNJLC attended the NFI coordination meeting in Zalingei and discussed NFI supply and distribution issues with UN Agencies and INGOs. All the NFI requests have been approved and CARE began transporting the NFIs to Zalingei from Nyala on June 18. 

Monitoring and Evaluation:  According to the CARE May NFI Monitoring and Evaluation report, IDPs have cited plastic sheeting to be the most useful item currently distributed.  IDPs have said that firewood is the item they would most like to receive of all things that they are not currently receiving.  NGOs are reminded to contact the CARE M & E team in Darfur prior to conducting an NFI distribution and updating the CARE field monitors if scheduled distribution dates change.   The full report can be found at http://www.unjlc.org/sudan/supply_chain/reports/monitoring.

*The “Number of Households” column shows the projected number of households that could be covered with the total stock.   Please see the complete Darfur NFI Common Pipeline tracking document at http://www.unjlc.org/sudan/supply_chain/pipeline_overview/.

Incoming items:  The following items are expected to arrive into the NFI Common Pipeline in July: 67,000 sleeping mats, the last tranche of USAID/OTI donated women’s toaps (38,000 toaps), and 52,030 jerry cans.  Owing to lead times for procurement and delays in funding, the next items to arrive into the CP are not anticipated until September. 

Donations/Loans to the CP: Norwegian Church Aid/ACT Caritas has loaned the NFI CP 30,000 Blankets to be repaid in 3 months and has agreed to loan an additional 30,000 in order to cover pipeline breaks. Organizations are reminded that if they donate NFI to the CP, the CP will cover the cost of transporting the NFI from El Obeid to the distribution points.  Agencies/NGOs can then access the NFI CP for distribution, if the target population meets CP standards. 

Funding Mobilization: The Government of Germany has pledged one million Euro to UNICEF for NFI procurement.  CARE has appealed to USAID for funds to continue transport and warehousing of NFIs through March 2007. 

Plastic Sheeting and Community Projects: A high demand for plastic sheeting has been placed on the NFI CP for community projects servicing non-shelter/NFI sectors.  UNJLC has agreed to a loan mechanism with UNICEF in South Darfur, whereby community project requests shall be met when stocks are available and repaid by UNICEF.  The loan mechanism has not yet been finalized in West and North Darfur.

Soap Distributions: UNICEF will only provide soap to organizations that have hygiene promotion programs and that sign a Project Cooperation Agreement (PCA) with UNICEF.   Organizations interested in distributing soap should contact the UNICEF offices in the Darfur state capitals.
 
Other Pipelines: Information on other NFI pipelines and distributions is vital for ensuring that NFI coverage is comprehensive.  All supply managers and NFI coordinators are requested to contact Alister Shields at Alister.Shields@wfp.org with information on their NFI activities. 

South Sudan
NFI Coordination: The UNJLC NFI Coordinator for South Sudan is continuing to contact agencies in Juba as well as travelling to the field to collect NFI data including stocks, locations of warehouses, distribution sites, households covered, items distributed, future plans and NFI stocks in the pipeline.  At least 56,545 HH received NFI packages between January and June 2006.
NFI distributions are currently at a minimum due to the rainy season though there have been some small emergency distributions for returnees stranded or delayed along the way due to the rains.  Due to this lack of activity, the monthly NFI sub-sector coordination meetings have now been changed to every two months. A monthly written update will be circulated.  During the dry season the meeting could be returned to a monthly basis if there is a demand.
     
There is a strong demand for assistance for transport of NFIs by most agencies. This request is not only for transportation means but as well for additional information on availability of transport, coordination of escorted convoys and possibilities of assistance from agencies such as UNMIS.

Rest of North Sudan
NFI Coordination: Since the middle of June, the UNJLC Logistics Coordinator for North Sudan has been in South Kordofan to collect information and examine coordination and logistics needs for the NFI sub-sector.  UNJLC travelled to Al Lagawa, Tima, and Kauda to look at the needs of returnees and other vulnerable populations.  The needs for NFIs in the areas visited are reportedly tremendous. The Logistics Coordinator will next travel to Talodi and Abyei to look at NFI issues. 

5. SURFACE TRANSPORT

Sudan-Wide
Dry Season Returns Planning:  On June 25, UNJLC brought together representatives from IOM, WFP, UNMAO, UNMIS, and OCHA to discuss information sharing regarding transport routes in Sudan, and how to best process and represent this data. This requirement also coincided with the South Sudan Infrastructure Assessment (SSIA) – an interagency GIS/mapping project spear-headed by UNJLC in South Sudan. 

Darfur
CARE Common Service Surface Transport:  In 2006, due to a funding shortfall, CARE only resumed surface transport services for May and June in order to preposition commodities in Darfur prior to the rainy season.  The Khartoum to Darfur State Capitals surface transport service began on 23 May, 2006. During the two month period, CARE delivered 215 MT of humanitarian cargo to Darfur (90 MT to Geneina, 80 MT to El Fasher and 45 MT to Nyala).  UNJLC processed requests from twenty organizations with 25 CMRs for the CARE surface transport service.

Convoy to Darfur: UNJLC facilitated a convoy of 21 UN and NGO vehicles to El Fasher, Geneina, and Nyala.  NOTE: Some convoy drivers who were being paid by the day attempted to delay the convoy in order to earn more money.  Delays endanger ALL members of the convoy.  For future convoys, UNDSS and UNJLC will require that all drivers are paid for the trip, rather than per diem. 

UNJLC will facilitate another convoy to Darfur if organizations are interested and the security situation allows.  Interested organizations are requested to submit a form with details about convoy needs to unjlc.khartoum@wfp.org. The form is at http://www.unjlc.org/sudan/transport/land/light_vehicle_convoys/view.

South Sudan
GOSS Support for Road Rehabilitation: The Government of Southern Sudan has announced a donation of $30 million to WFP for the rehabilitation of roads. The funds will be used to start work on the Tonj-Wau route (100 km), in addition to other projects.  Even with this donation, the WFP Emergency Road Repair and Mine Clearance Special Operation 10368.0 in South Sudan is currently experiencing a funding shortfall of $36.5 million.

Demining: UNMAO de-mining teams have completed the clearance of the Line of Disengagement (LoD) at Rokon, Central Equatoria. The LoD is now open for up to 8 meters of traffic. Verification activities are ongoing on the Wau-Getti road, but activities on the Getti-Aweil section were also suspended, due to bad weather and road conditions.  (UNMIS)

Rainy Season Accessibility: Major roads are still poor in terms of accessibility with the exception of Juba-Yei-Rumbek road. WFP is currently carrying out a road levelling project in Juba; to date, WFP has completed the custom market – parliament road.  Juba-Torit remains impassable during the rainy season. Torit-Kapoeta-Lokichoggio is passable all season. The Rumbek-Wau road is passable with difficulty when it rains. (Source: WFP)

Rainy Season Road Regulations: Heavily loaded trucks (up to 22T on one axle has been documented) into Sudan and from Sudan to Uganda, are having disastrous effects on certain sections of road – particularly Kaya-Yei.  Sections of road once in good condition have rapidly deteriorated leading to extra repairs in areas along the road, and emergency interventions to keep the road open. WFP, in conjunction with the Ministry of Transport and Roads, has designed information signs highlighting the recommendations that no more than 4 MT per axle be loaded during the wet season until December. It is also recommended that no heavy vehicles move for a period of 6 hours after any significant rainfall. (Source: WFP)

SPLA Trucks:  The SPLA has received 100 trucks in Juba in order to increase their transport capacity.  Previously, the SPLA had depended on trucks captured during the war or rented commercial trucks. 

Mvolo Bridge: The bridge at Mvolo is currently out.  WFP is working on fixing the bridge but there have been delays getting parts to repair the bridge.  At this time, a large number of trucks are stuck, including at least 40 WFP trucks.  Mvolo is along the main assess corridor to Rumbek on the Yei-Maridi-Mvolo-Rumbek road.

Wako Bridge Repairs: WFP has begun emergency repairs to the bridge in Wako, Western Equatoria which had collapsed in May, stranding hundreds of vehicles.  The bridge had not been upgraded during the past dry season as scheduled due to a lack of funding for the project.  Since then, WFP has received funding from the Dutch government and DFID to commence emergency repairs.

6. AIR OPERATIONS

Sudan-Wide
WFP-HAS Funding Shortfall: The Humanitarian Air Service (WFP-HAS) Special Operation 10181.3 requirements for 2006  are $27 million of which so far $11 million has been resourced from the European Community and Common Humanitarian Fund (CHF). In the absence of further contributions, WFP will be forced as early as July to reduce aircraft within the fleet considerably (including helicopters used in the most remote and insecure areas) or initiate a full cost recovery mechanism, which will in turn severely restrict movement of humanitarian staff and create an acute lack of transport options for agencies and donors alike. (Source: WFP)

Updated Flight Schedules: The UNMIS and WFP-HAS updated flight schedules (including helicopter services) can be found at http://www.unjlc.org/sudan/transport/air/schedules.

WFP-HAS Fleet: The total current WFP-HAS fleet consists of: 
Khartoum: Two Dash-8s, two B-1900s, one B-200
El Obeid: One C208
Nyala: One C208, one M18 Helicopter
El Fasher: One M18 Helicopter
Geneina: One M18 Helicopter
Wau: One C208
Juba: One C208
Lokichoggio: Two Dash-8s
Rumbek: One Twin Otter, one B-1900
Lokichoggio/Rumbek: Eight C208s, two Buffalos

Accessing UNMIS Passenger Flights: Organizations in the Khartoum NFI/Logistics meeting have noted that the current procedure for accessing UNMIS passenger flights is inconvenient because passengers do not know if they are on the flight until the afternoon before the flight.  In addition, organizations usually have to go to the UNMIS office to find out if they are on the manifest because electronic confirmation is not posted for non-UNMIS personnel and telephoning does not work well.

Darfur
NFI Flights: There has not been a regular schedule for WFP-HAS NFI cargo flights to Darfur in 2006.  However, the WFP-HAS small cargo service (25 kg/package up to 100 kg total) is still available.  Interested organizations should contact WFP-HAS directly by calling Dominic Waldron on 0912167520.  These flights are to North and South Sudan.  In addition, organizations can transport items through UNMIS on a space-available basis. Please contact UNJLC for details at unjlc.khartoum@wfp.org.    

South Sudan
UNMIS Cargo Transport: UNMIS has two cargo flights daily from El Obeid to Juba (20 MT capacity) and organizations can apply to ship cargo on those flights on a space available basis.  There is capacity of up to 1 MT on UNMIS passenger flights, depending on the location.  Items are more likely to be transported if they can be divided into 25 kg boxes. 

7. RIVER TRANSPORT

UNMIS Barge:  UNMIS has commenced a regular barge service from Kosti to Malakal/Juba.  However, the UNMIS barge from Kosti to Malakal does not have any spare capacity for humanitarian agencies at this time. 

IOM Barge: IOM is operating a barge (400 MT capacity) between Juba and Bor to support returning IDPs.  Humanitarian organizations wishing to access spare capacity on the barge are requested to fill in the form at http://www.unjlc.org/sudan/transport/air/cargo/transport_iom_barge and submit it to the following IOM representatives in Juba -  Mladen Kakuca: + 8821654208732, mkakucatdy@iom.int and Mark Petzoldt:  mpetzoldt@iom.int. 

8. FUEL

Sudan-Wide
Doubling of Oil Refinery Output: The Khartoum Refinery, the only oil plant in Sudan, has completed expansion to 100,000 barrels per day following an upgrading of the plant which doubled its capacity.  (Source: CNPC Website).

South Sudan
Fuel in Juba: The fuel market in Juba is dominated by imported fuel from Eastern Africa. Some companies now import their fuel through port-Sudan via Kosti, because they claim that Sudanese fuel is not well refined. However, allegations have been made that the River Transportation Cooperation (RTC) of the GNU is deliberately detaining fuel barges from entering Juba, sometimes up to 3 weeks, to allow some traders to control the market and raise fuel prices. (Source: UNMIS)

Fuel beyond Juba: Private companies in Juba have begun investigating the use of barges to transport fuel to towns at or near the river. HASS petroleum plans to bring their fuel barge in early September.
