This road connects the southern border with North Peñas Blancas border from El Espino, thus giving direct connection with the Republics of Costa Rica sisters and Honduras respectively. In most of the time it remains in good condition and runs through the country directly and indirectly linking the most important and developed as the Pacific region, the central and northern areas. Greatly facilitates the transport of goods imported and exported through the Port of Corinto, Puerto Sandino and San Juan del Sur.
Road Managua - Puerto Corinto
2 hours (160 km) drive down the road from Managua N through Leon and Chinandega, Puerto Corinto is paved throughout. The road does not seem to suffer any problem in terms of safety or infrastructure.
Road Managua – El Rama
The road is in good condition and is more accessible and important to connect with El Rama. Distance from Managua 292 kms or 4 hrs. And the Atlantic Coast through the Escondido River l 100 kms or 6 hours.
Road Managua - Puerto Cabezas-Waspam
The road to the coast of the North Atlantic (565 kilometers from Managua to Puerto Cabezas) is paved only up to the Rio Blanco (150 km. To the northeast of Managua), from there a dirt road that connects Rosita, Puerto Cabezas / Waspám (415 additional km). Most of the 300 km road from White River to the junction of the Wawa River can be considered accessible condition in dry season for light vehicles to trucks with 15 to 18 metric tons, however, there are several damaged sections for the wet season (nine months of the year) become impassable. It has been given in some tran¿mos maintenance of the road, but not sufficient conditions for improvements.
The WFP has an office in Puerto Cabezas, in a rented house, there is a radio antenna and high frequency basic telephone line, Internet, security is provided by a private company WFP has 2 cellars 40m square, 1 cellar of 29 square meters and three mobile stores.
Managua - Matagalpa
Matagalpa has served as one of the centers of WFP operations in Nicaragua, in Sébaco WFP has a warehouse of 5.540 meters for a capacity of 7,000 tons.
Access to the RAAN of Matagalpa is via a dirt road 125 km which varies from state, but perhaps most important is not the primary way for the central government in terms of investment / improvement. A winding road through sand-gravel / clay based sparsely populated tropical pine forests of Puerto Cabezas leads to the town of Waspam (138 kms.
The road often has serious bottlenecks caused by poor drainage along mix muddy clay road during missions to visit the road was in good condition, although there were several sections difficulties that might cause problems for certain types of vehicle (ie, heavy truckloads and 4 x 2 vehicles) during prolonged rainfall.
Managua - Road Wiwilí
It is 6 hours from Managua to Wiwilí from Managua through the Pan American highway through the city of Matagalpa and Jinotega. In the first part of the route is easy and hassle with some problems in terms of infrastructure or security. Towards the end of the unit, conditions along the dirt road deteriorate, bottlenecks during the rainy season are common, besides, the road is susceptible to landslides.
Wiwilí is a temporary center of WFP operations, there is no WFP or infrastructure for storage, communication, radio room, etc. When necessary, WFP can rent a space of 500 m² namely a local partner store, located directly on the river port at the point of shipment Wiwilí. No Wiwilí airport installations, including helicopters. Fuel is available in the city.
Building Maintenance.
The departments with deficits are RACN, RACS, Rio San Juan. Of these RACN presents the largest deficit in value of 3449.53. Among the three departments has a total deficit of 7085.55 kms with last year's variation equals -9.38 kms. There are 113 municipalities with a surplus and 40 with deficits. The largest deficit was observed in Waspam and Prinzapolka.

Bridges
Due to heavy rains falling for much of the year in the RACN / RACS, roads and bridges are vulnerable to being dragged through much of the year: In recent years there has been maintaining the bridges of primary roads or main. Along the main road from White River at Puerto Cabezas and Waspam union, many river crossings have nothing more than basic wooden structures subject to deterioration in wet weather conditions and vulnerable to rising rivers. Wawa River ferry crossing point.
On the way Waspam, about 19 km from Puerto Cabezas city center, it is the turn to the west, the road to Minas Triangle and Matagalpa and Managua. A further 20 kilometers in the Wawa River crossing point. This route is the umbilical connection to the rest of the country for those who can not afford the cost of flights and for almost all products sold on the Atlantic coast. The vehicle crossing is performed by a barge that is pulled through a cable and winch rusty old diesel engine. The barge carries 20 mt + platform trucks, buses and virtually anything it takes to cross the Wawa. During the rainy season the service is suspended as a precaution when the pressure of the dangerous current in the cables and winches, leaving the Atlantic coast link outage.

Nicaragua has 2,220 kilometers of navigable waterways not including two large lakes (Xolotlán or Managua and Nicaragua or Cocibolca). The rivers of the Pacific slope, are generally short haul. Instead, draining into the Caribbean Sea, are longer and extensive drainage basin. Among the basins of great importance for the country, we Coco River Grande de Matagalpa and Rio San Juan.
The fluvial or lacustrine navigation is poorly developed internally the country. There are six ports, three in the Pacific and three in the Atlantic, but the marine cargo in and out mostly by ports of neighboring republics of Honduras and Costa Rica.
As for river transportation, all major rivers in the country have public transport vessels.
In the San Juan River, the city of San Carlos has a port where boats or pangas to go to the historic site of El Castillo are taken Bartola Refuge life, the vast Natural Reserve Indio-Maiz, and the port in the Caribbean San Juan del Norte (or Greytown).
In the area of the Caribbean coast is also the port of El Rama, from where boats are taken to cross the river interesting Escondido and reach Bluefields.
The Rio Escondido with a length of 88 kilometers, the Escondido River is formed by the confluence of Sikia, Mico and Rama rivers, and is navigable to its mouth in the Bay of Bluefields.
The Río Grande de Matagalpa born in North Mill and has a length of 465 kilometers; It is the second longest river in Nicaragua, is tributary to the Tuma River with a length of 180 kilometers. The Wawashan and Kurinwas are tributaries of Laguna de Perlas and its course is with few rapids.
The Prinzapolka River rises in the mountains Isabelia mainstream and has a length of 245 kilometers, of which half are navigable by small boats.
The Kukalaya river has a length of 140 km and flows into the coastal lagoon Whounta; Wawa, with a length of 160 kilometers, flows into the lagoon Karatá and its main tributary is the River Likus.
El Coco, Wangki or Segovia River, with a length of 680 kilometers, is the longest in Central and originates at the confluence of the river Comali (Honduras) and Tapacali (Nicaragua) near El Espino; downstream, the Coco is navigable by shallow-draft vessels, receives Bocay main tributaries, with a length of 115 kilometers and 138 kilometers Waspuk.
At present all waterways are navigable in winter and summer. Even in summer (November-April) these pathways lower their level and transport is limited and has to travel in small boats (boats or Cayucos) in most cases.

Puma Energy is the main importer of oil and its derivatives as well as fuel distribution Nicaragua. Currently the system of import is through Albanisa, government-controlled company, who brings him Venezuela. All their including gas stations, assets is in charge of most of the imports of crude oil and refined in the country.
Albanisa, Nicaraguan and Venezuelan company capital imports and distributes oil in the country. Imported oil is received and stored in the terminal of Puerto Sandino, where it has warehouses for storing up to 648.3 mb of crude. This raw material is then taken to the only refinery in Nicaragua -located near The Lead-slope.
DNP-Petronic: Nicaraguan Petroleum Distributor: Distributes fuel at about 75 stations nationwide.
The fuel prices have increased in recent years, although the country has the oil from Venezuela, through ALBANSA. The price of fuel is due to the general instability of the international market, which has had a direct impact on the local economy and in particular by the WFP logistics activities in the RAAN, where fuel costs, especially for transport by ship, are extremely high (considering that most outboard motors used require a blend oil because they are 2-stroke engines (a fuel mixture 7 liters of oil marine-1L). on the other hand, UN agencies have not yet reached an agreement with the local government for the availability of free fuel service.
Fuel availability is not a problem in the Pacific, as there is a wide distribution network of fuel stations mediantes. A bit more limited in the Caribbean Coast, due to the long distances, where you can locate gas stations. You can have one or two stations in each municipality. So it is important to carry reserve fuel when the displacements are made in this area.
The Managua airport has three refuellers five thousand, eight thousand and ten thousand gallons respectively. The JET A-1 is refined in Nicaragua. The fuel supply has never been a problem during an emergency in Nicaragua. There are refineries in neighboring countries, including Alajuela (Costa Rica), Acajutla (El Salvador) and Puerto Cortés (Honduras).
No floor in the other airports and airfields in Nicaragua. When the planes leave Managua carry enough fuel to return.
Fuel Pricing
The monitoring of fuel prices is performed by the Nicaraguan Energy Institute. Prices of Petrol, Diesel and Kerosene, are not regulated by the state; these are set by each of the Distribution Companies operating in the country. Despite having an agreement with Venezuela and have the lowest taxes in Central America fuel cost is still high compared to other countries in the region. This affects all sectors.

Fuel Transportation
The transport of fuel to the internal of the country is carried in trucks by land. Fuel distributors have adequate and sufficient vehicles for humanitarian actions. In case of emergency fuel delivery RAAN can negotiate with PETRONIC directly.
Due to the large area that comprises 32,159 kilometers RAAN and the minimum infrastructure maintaining a constant supply of fuel is expensive and unregulated nature of the region allows prices to fluctuate.
Private stations in the RAAN fuel supplied by the state-owned fuel Petro-Nic who have the right to set their prices independently.Normas, Calidad y Testing

Electricity and Power
The energy generation in the country recorded a cumulative
growth of 5.7 percent in June 2014 (5.7% in the same period of
2013), the renewable component the main source of generation
(53.0%) in the semester. In the second quarter, the generation grew
5.4 percent year on year (6.0% in the first quarter of 2014),
quarter was influenced by the seismic events of April and
maintenance of Carlos Fonseca plant. Moreover, the
domestic fuel prices reflected monthly variation of 2.2, 0.8 and
-0.1 percent for regular gasoline, super and diesel, respectively.
This behavior was in line with the monthly increase of 3.3 percent
in the price of foreign gasoline. Finally, the average spot price
of WTI June was $ 105.1 per barrel (10.3% year on year) .The energy
sector in Nicaragua has been evolving and developing with great
dynamism in the last five years with major public and private
investments nationwide.
There is evidence in the improvement in the coverage of
electrical services, from 63 percent in 2008 to 76 percent in 2012.
The installed capacity of 2012 saw an increase of 68 percent
compared to 2006; further that there has been a diversification
generation methods. This has enabled supply the demand of the
domestic market and target energy exports in the future via the
Electrical Interconnection System for Central America (SIEPAC)
project.
Nicaragua is the Central American country with the lowest
electricity generation and the lowest percentage of population with
access to electricity.
The Management of Isolated Systems Operation (DOSA), is the area of the Nicaraguan Electricity Company (ENEL) for supplying electricity services in the regions of the North Atlantic, Central and Southern Spain (23 sites), which benefiting more than 22,000 customers, including government entities, resorts, schools are. The electrical service has grown in the area of the Caribbean Coast of Nicaragua by more than 100 percent as of 26 thousand beneficiaries in 2007 users, happened to 62 000 people from 42 communities in the northern Caribbean, exactly the municipalities of Bonanza Rosita, Siuna, Puerto Cabezas and Waspam Prinzapolka first have access to electricity.
In Nicaragua, the company Dissur-Disnorte, owned by the Spanish Union Fenosa, controls 95% of the distribution.
ENTRESA (National Electricity Transmission Company SA de
Nicaragua) is responsible for the operation, management and
maintenance of high voltage network in Nicaragua. In Nicaragua,
100% transmission is controlled by ENATREL, which is also in charge
of the expedition system.
The electrical system in Nicaragua has the National Interconnected
System (SIN), covering more than 90% of the Pacific, Central and
North of the country. The remaining regions are covered by small
isolated systems experience frequent blackouts generation (RAAN,
RAAS).
The SIEPAC the country's electricity grid will integrate with the
rest of the Central American countries, which is expected to
improve the reliability of supply and reduce costs.
The length of the transmission network is 1,923 kilometers, made of
335 miles of 230 kV, 138kV and 922 kms 666kms of 69 kV. The
distribution network consists of 71 sub-stations.
- Residential: 0,137 US $ per kWh
- Commercial: US $ 0.187 per kWh
- Industrial: 0,101 US $ per kWh
Nicaragua's electricity production in 2013 came in 58% of renewable sources (hydro, geothermal, biomass and wind) which is a record for the country. It is expected that by 2017 the installed capacity is of 94% renewable energy, and 6% of thermal energy. The installed capacity by 2013 is 1,300.00 megawatts (MW), 48.88% more generation capacity installed in 2008 which was 740.29 MWs

Nicaragua is a country of farming traditions. Has a total of 3.6 million hectares of great fertility. Approximately 70% are not being carved and 60% of the country are wooded areas with lush vegetation and fauna.
The basic grains are the primary diet of the Nicaraguan population. 79% of the national production of basic grains (rice, beans, maize and sorghum) is in the hands of small and medium producers (PMP). The production of basic grains is one of the main pillars of the Nicaraguan economy, the increase in food prices, rising input and transport from increased fuel prices, offers an opportunity and demand investment in food production.
However, there are many factors affecting the productivity of staple grains such as availability and access to certified seeds (quality: genetics and plant); scarce and expensive resources for credit; insufficient technical support, production in marginal areas for cultivation; climate change; insufficient infrastructure for storage and limited market development.
Currently the country produces 1.2 million tons of grain for their own consumption. Nicaragua has production shortfall in rice, sorghum and yellow corn; not in national red white corn and beans. However there are conditions to increase domestic production, up to 5% according to projections from 2013 to 2014 MAG.

3.7 Nicaragua Waste Management and Disposal Providers
Nicaragua Waste Management and Disposal Providers
Nicaragua has three technical standards governing the design of landfills and waste management: Technical Standard (05 013-01) for Environmental Control of Solid Waste Landfill for non-hazardous.
This standard is to establish the general and specific criteria, parameters and environmental specifications for the location, design, operation, maintenance and closure or closure of the disposal of non-hazardous solid waste in landfills.
Nicaraguan Mandatory Technical Standard Environmental Management, Treatment and Disposal of Solid Waste non-hazardous (05 014-01). This standard is to establish the technical and environmental criteria to be met in the implementation of projects and activities management, treatment and disposal of non-hazardous solid waste, to protect the environment. Technical Standard for the Management and Disposal of Hazardous Solid Waste (05 015-02). This standard is to establish environmental technical requirements for storage, collection, transportation, treatment and disposal of hazardous solid waste generated in industrial activities and establishments providing medical care, such as clinics and hospitals, clinical laboratories, laboratories production of human and veterinary rabies centers and biological agents, teaching and research.[1]
"Every day, on average, every inhabitant of the city of Managua produces 0.7 Kg. Of solid waste, while the residents of the rest of the country, on average, generate 0.50 Kg. / Day of waste. Based on the above figures, experts estimate that the total solid waste generation nationwide, reached the sum of 3,500 ton / day, equivalent to an annual production of 1.2 million tonnes. Only four in ten households eliminate waste through a collector or depositing it in a landfill or in an approved container truck. This means that most households, 56.6%, burning, burying, throws a vacuum or property, spear into a river or stream. "[2]
The solid waste collection is performed in 75 of the 153 municipalities in garbage trucks administered by the mayors of each municipality. The coverage is partial, because some areas are difficult to access, which means that there are several areas in the country that lack this service. Waste collected in the country, 94% being poured into tanks or open dumps or are burned to reduce its volume. Moreover, hospital and industrial waste, which in most cases are toxic or dangerous, do not have special treatment and personnel handling equipment is not provided with prevention.[3] But there are some companies like ECOTRASA that provides hazardous waste management.
The mayor of Managua has a fleet of 70 garbage trucks with established routes for garbage collection to household level three times a week. These wastes are deposited in the landfill The Chureca that for years had been the largest landfill in the country and now has a treatment plant with a capacity to process 1,200 metric tons of solid waste produced Managua every day. Waste is also deposited in the landfill located in the municipality of Mateare about 20 Km from the capital.
Every municipality in the country has its landfill or landfill and operate according to the dynamics of each municipality administered by the Municipal Mayors.

Waste recycling
In recent years in Nicaragua, has been promoting the recycling of non-hazardous waste such as plastic, paper and glass through entrepreneurial companies. However, we need a radical change in the mindset of the entire population to see the opportunity that presents itself. This implies a shift in connotation as "waste" is attributed to material that has no value, while "waste" is any excess of an activity that is valued and can be used in other activities.
According to established norms types of solid waste to be recycled or advantage may be, without limitation, the following: a) organic wastes from agricultural, forestry and household origin. b) Paper and cardboard c) plastic in its various components. d) ferrous and non-ferrous materials. e) glass. f) Textile. g) Leather and rubber. ) Batteries of all kinds. i) Electronic.
There is strong interest from other countries to purchase recyclable materials to produce recycled then sell at more competitive prices than locally produced products. In the case of paper, is exported to El Salvador's main destination country, followed by Costa Rica and Ecuador. Similarly scrap and plastic is exported to China as the main destination country.
Certainly recycling is not an absolute solution, but is the most viable option in the long term; however, it is necessary that the population appropriates the concept reduce - reuse - recycle and companies to design this is not only sustainable for the environment, but can be economically sustainable.
Wastewater
In Nicaragua the sanitary sewer expanding coverage has improved from 33% to 39% to 52.746 users integrating and expanding sewage networks in more than 400 km. Also has increased the treatment of wastewater by 200% as a way to help protect environmental improvement, building new processing units among which mention Managua followed by others such as León, Chinandega, Rivas, Nagarote , El Viejo.
The treatment plant wastewater Managua has a capacity to treat 183 cubic meters of water per day, making it the largest treatment plant that exists in Central America. Managua is the first city to treat their water with this type of technology preventing sewage discharges into Lake Managua. The latest data we have of the measurements made on the ground is being treated 109 thousand cubic meters of water per day and the quality of water that is coming out is excellent quality.
In rural and some urban neighborhoods where no sewer causes the formation of ponds and deteriorating streets by poor control of sewage.
