Note: Project completion dates in parentheses reflect the most recent information provided to <strong>SIGAR</strong> by USFOR-A and USAID, and are subject to change. In some cases, updated completion dates<br />
have not been determined. All AIF power projects are to be sustained by Afghanistan’s Ministry of Energy and Water, and Da Afghanistan Breshna Sherkat (DABS), Afghanistan’s national electric<br />
utility. Notified amount reflects estimated project ceiling cost. Obligations and disbursements are as of 10/31/2016. All other information is as of 11/23/2016.<br />
