ABSTRACT

The next steps after the completion of planning (or preconstruction planning), concern the physical construction of facilities, establishment of the essential legal structure for management of the resource, and establishment of the essential financial structure for support of the development. Ideally they are commenced even before the completion of planning. As indicated in chapter 17, these steps are: securing or supplying enterpreneurship for development and later operational management; securing or supplying financing, and administering the disbursement of investment funds; securing the necessary legal authorizations for construction and other developmental facilities; and management and supervision of construction or other developmental activities.
