This round of M&E began in January 2018. NRCR established two monitoring teams to conduct field surveys on the 6 subprojects with the assistance of the Guiyang and local PMOs, implementing agencies (IAs). The following methods were used: Literature review ; FGD ;Interview ;Field visit. Based on the monitoring, the main findings are listed below. Resettlement has been largely completed, and some subprojects are behind schedule. Jinlong Subproject and Maozhulin Subproject almost completed in end of 2018. The organizational structure for resettlement is sound and duties clearly defined. Most outstanding issues have been solved. Maozhulin Subproject: Two households in Heping Village did not entered into LA agreements due to land ownership disputes in 2015, and agree to deposit the LA compensation with the township government temporarily. As of February 2018, the LA compensation had been paid. See Appendix 2. Jinlong Subproject: The 15.835 mu of collective barren hill acquired in 2014 is located on the boundary between Xinzhai and Xiaoshan Villages. The LA compensation has been shared equally by the two villages. See Appendix 1. Jinlong Subproject: In 2014, the compensation for about 260 trees of Zhang Guixiang, a villager in Xinzhai Village was not paid because the Xiuwen County Government was short of funds. In 2015, the government wanted to compensate for such trees at the rate for young trees, but Zhang Guixiang did not agree and insisted that such trees should be compensated for at the rate for adult trees. As of February 2018, negotiation was underway. It’s heard has been resolved. Will further confirm it during the supplementary survey. The suggestions include: Solve outstanding issues arising from LA and HD timely. The local PMOs should solve the outstanding issues arising from LA and HD in some subprojects in consultation with the local governments. The compensation standard for the Maozhulin Reservoir in Kaiyang County was 17,000 in agreed RP, and the actual compensation to the villagers is only 15,000 yuan/mu. The insufficient part is being paying to the villagers. The progress will be monitored and analyzed in next M&E report.
