This report is about plans to build the 480 MW and 75 metre high Lower Sesan 2 dam on the Sesan River in Sesan District, Stung Treng Province, northeastern Cambodia, the tens of thousands of people who are expected to be negatively impacted by the project, and options for dam developers and the government of Cambodia to uphold the rights of local people. The dam would be built just downstream from the confluence of the Srepok River, thus blocking two of the largest rivers in the Mekong River Basin, and causing serious negative environmental impacts.
