1. INTRODUCTION

1. The Maritime and Waterways Safety Project is jointly funded by the Government of Papua New Guinea (GoPNG) and the Asian Development Bank (ADB) through Loan 2978-PNG. The Loan Agreement was signed on the 29th of January 2013. The Executing Agency is the National Maritime Safety Authority (NMSA).

2. The Maritime Waterways Safety Project (MWSP) aims at improving safety and efficiency of international and national shipping in coastal areas and waterways in Papua New Guinea (PNG) by replacing, installing and maintaining navigational aids (navaids), improving maritime safety information infrastructure, improving maritime safety practice of communities, and providing efficient project management and capacity development.

3. The MWSP originally involved the maintenance of 99 existing navigational aids and installation of 33 new ones across the 14 provinces in PNG. However as a result of customary land issues at a number of sites the total number of navaids at end June 2018 has reduced down to 104. The project is expected to have limited and or minor land acquisition of mostly of sea-bed, reefs, or foreshore. Also it is unlikely to have displacement of people or resettlement impacts, as most sub-projects are existing infrastructures and rehabilitation works will be undertaken in the sea and within existing location.

4. According to ADB reporting requirement as stipulated in its Safeguards Policy Statements 2009 (SPS 2009), the MWSP Project Management Unit through its community development team should report on a semi-annual basis on safeguard matters, although there is no displacement of people or assets for this project.

5. This social safeguard monitoring report covers project activities from January to June 2018. There few field visits to the navaid sites and or to affected communities during this period. There were trips undertaken by PMU to , , and but limited only to collect Land Investigation Reports from the provincial lands office.

6. The following paragraphs describe in brief the project background, social safeguard requirements, resettlement processes and the community engagement programme, which involves two field visits to each community per navaid site as a minimum and one courtesy visit to the respective provincial government administrations, where the navaids will be installed.

7. Then a short overview is given on implementation of project activities during the reporting period. A table is attached in Appendix A, which summarises the main outcomes and outputs per community, lists all signed agreements in regards to land acquisition and other social safeguard requirements, any land disputes in the communities, planned mediation processes and further steps how to overcome these problems.

8. A monitoring of the consultation process has started whereas resettlement and social assessments in communities have been initiated as a prerequisite for installation of planned navaids. Any socio-economic impact of people’s life in regard to project activities can be monitored after the first installation of the navaid and first installment of land lease payments to customary landowners and Community Lighthouse Committees (CLC).

9. Detailed activity reports with meeting minutes, signed agreements, due diligence reports for resettlement and photos of sites and communities are not attached to this report but were submitted in quarterly progress reports to ADB.

1. PROJECT OVERVIEW

10. The Project has four main outputs:

I. Originally the project requires the installation of 33 new navaids, replacement of 99 existing navaids, and maintenance of installed and replaced navaids as located in the various Maritime Provinces. As of June 2018, the number of new navaids to be installed and navaids to be replaced has reduced to 76 and 28 respectively.

II. Improvement of safety information, infrastructure, comprising hydrographic surveys, installation of five (5) new AIS transponders and the replacement of three (3) others, and installation of four (4) tide gauges.

III. Improvement of maritime safety practice of communities, comprising of community engagement programs for maritime safety awareness activities and small craft safety training activities.

IV. Provision of efficient project management and capacity development, comprising of establishment of a Project Implementing Unit (PIU), support to manage and implement the project, and engagement and training of staff in operating the safety and hydrographic information infrastructure of NMSA.

11. The impact will be safer and enhanced access to socioeconomic opportunities for communities in PNG and regional and international stakeholders. The project is expected to produce benefits for rural and remote populations as well as the national and international population.

12. The Project has been classified B under ADB SPS (2009) for environment and social category. Framework documents have been prepared to describe the safeguard requirements for the project. NMSA as executing agency has overall responsibility to comply with safeguard requirements.

13. The PIU of the project employed two Community and Land Coordinators (national, whole project duration) and a Gender, Community and Lands Specialist (international, intermittent) as part of the community development team.

2. METHODOLOGY

14. Social safeguards and resettlement in this project include inter alia a community engagement programme (CEP) and land acquisition of customary land both on and at sea. Involuntary resettlement and displacement of people will not be required as most navaids will be installed in the seabed or on locations on land, which mark a cliff or a rock. In most cases, no vegetation or asset is removed.

15. The resettlement process involves land acquisition of customary land on a lease basis for 20 years. Most sites are under water and will be leased from the local traditional landowners. The proposed size of land under water is 20 m x 20 m and on land 10 m x 10 m. The lease is signed between NMSA and respective landowners. The Land Investigation Report (LIR) is initiated by officers from Department of Lands and Physical Planning (DLPP) and provincial land officers. Land acquisition processes follow legal procedures of PNG government as disclosed in the Land Act 1996 (currently under review).

3. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PROGRAM (CEP)

16. The CEP comprises of several phases of stakeholder consultations, which have to be followed before any installation of the navaid can proceed.

6

17. The first phase includes courtesy visits to the provincial administrations. The main aim of these visits is to introduce the project to the Provincial Administrator (PA), Governor and respective officers from Land, Law and Justice, Planning and Local Level Government. The project team expects to get information from the lands officers about the communities located nearest to the planned site to identify the right landowners.

18. After receiving information from the lands officers and provincial administrations, the team conducts first visits to communities. The main purpose of these visits is to conduct awareness about the installation of the navaid/beacon and the project. The first consultation with communities is done by the community, environment and engineering project teams. Officers from provincial and national lands divisions/department, a surveyor and a valuer also join the team.

19. Whilst the community team conducts the awareness about the project, the engineering team assesses the sites with local permission and attendance. It is crucial that people in villages accept the installation of the navaid and that elder, councilors and landowners gives their permission to the project team to inspect the sites. By accepting and understanding the purpose of the project, community representatives sign a Free, Prior and Informed Consent (FPIC), which is a precondition of continuing project activities. The form is pre - signed by NMSA CEO; one original is within the community and the other original remains in the project office.

20. A checklist retrieved from the Land Acquisition and Resettlement Framework (LARF) is filled during each community visit and a due diligence report prepared for each site.

21. During community meetings, the MWSP CD team also discloses grievance redress mechanisms and explains further steps of the community programme. All awareness material about the project is prepared by the CD team and distributed in community meetings, which are recorded and filed in the office. Main emphasis is laid on gender balance, when it comes to decision making for the navaid installation, land issues and representation in public discussions.

22. The second phase of community consultations is focused around land acquisition and community representation by forming a Community Lighthouse Committee (CLC). The Community Lighthouse Committee is established to monitor the lighthouse and to ensure that no vandalism acts occur to the lighthouse.

23. The CLC is responsible for the security of the lighthouse and to report any outage or damage of lights. It is bounded by the Community Security and Lighthouse Monitoring Agreement (CSLMA). The term of this agreement is for twenty (20) years.

24. Fees are paid once the lighthouses are installed and are tested to be functioning. Whilst the LIR is conducted by officers from DLPP and provincial/district lands offices with assistance from the CD project team, the whole process around forming of CLC is solely the responsibility of the CD project team. Village Councillors and Ward Recorders assist the team in retrieving information through community profiles and collecting socio - economic baseline data through survey questionnaires.

25. Awareness about safe practice at sea for small craft operators and community members are part of the awareness programme during the second visits. These trips last approximately two to three days per community. Distribution of HIV/AIDS material and a short introduction on transmission, background and social impact is done by Community and Lands Coordinators, who have been trained and certified during the inception phase of the Project.

4. GENDER

26. The project has a Gender Action Plan, which was modified in a workshop with relevant stakeholders in 2015. It lays strong emphasis on developing equal gender participation in decision making processes and consultations on the community, administrative and

7

management level whenever possible. Cultural constraints and differences especially in decision making processes about landownership in matrilineal and patrilineal societies were discussed and appropriate amendments done. The GAP identifies and addresses gender issues in project activities and formulates indicators for outputs and impacts. Regular monitoring is provided and updates on the GAP are submitted in the Quarterly Reports. The CD team implements gender awareness in community consultations and visits to the provincial administrations. Women are encouraged to express their opinions about the proposed navaid installations and are active members of the community lighthouse committee (CLC) and signatories to the committee account. The CLC agreement, which is signed by NMSA and the CLC executive members includes a clause that 20% of funds spent for communal activities must benefit women and girls. At the end of each year, the CLCs have to prepare reports, which then will be monitored by NMSA. So far, the installation of navaids has not been completed. Monitoring of the CLC reports will start after the installation of the first navaids have been completed.

27. According to the GAP a gender policy should be established for NMSA. Consultations took place with external stakeholders and selected NMSA staff before meetings were held within NMSA to solicit views and opinions on a gender policy for NMSA. After the consultation meetings, a workshop was conducted to initiate the first stages of preparing the policy. It was during this time that the name of this policy was agreed upon, namely, National Maritime Safety Authority Gender Equity and Social Inclusive (NMSA GESI) Policy.

5. ACTIVITIES UPDATES FROM JANUARY TO JUNE 2018.

28. As of June 2018, the project has three proposed navaid packages distributed over 12 maritime provinces in Papua New Guinea. After the list was updated 104 installations are planned in total. Package 1 includes 48 navaids, 44 in and 4 in Central Province. Package 2 is geographically scattered over the New Guinea , which includes Autonomous Region of Bougainville (ARB), New Ireland (NIP) and Manus (MP); East New Britain (ENB) and West New Britain (WNB) Provinces. A total of 20 navaids are listed in package 2. Package 3 involves the main coastline of Papua New Guinea and includes six Provinces. The total number of sites in Package 3 is 36. Package 4 has since been removed from the list.

29. The list of confirmed sites has been changed due to various reasons. The issues in communities, which could not be solved by mediation or during consultations therefore led to cancellation of these sites (see in detail Appendix A). Most navaids are new as they require new structures to be installed thus the increase from 33 to 76 new navaids, while the number of navaids to be replaced has reduced to 28 navaids as these are existing structures.

30. No field visits were conducted in the period covered by this report as all field visits were completed in 2017. The CALCs only made short trips to four Provincial towns to follow-up and collect LIRs. The Provinces where the LIRs have been collected are; Lae, Popondetta, Vanimo and Alotau however, seven more LIRs are still to be collected from Misima, Popondetta and Vanimo.

31. Land and resettlement activities in the reporting period focused on follow ups for the Land Investigation Reports (LIRs) for Packages 1-3 and all necessary documents like survey plans and valuation reports. Status of LIRs can be seen in detail in Table 1.

6. OUTPUTS FOR ACTIVITIES JANUARY – JUNE 2018

I) Land Acquisition Process

32. A meeting with the Valuer General was held at the Valuer General’s Office on March 5th, 2018. Those in attendance were; Project Manager, Community, Lands and Gender Specialist, Community and Lands officer, Director for Impact Projects (DLPP), and a Senior Lands officer (DLPP). The main agenda for this meeting was to discuss and resolve the issue with the valuation

8

reports as most are still outstanding. The Community and Lands officers have constantly been following up with the valuers however to this date they have received only 11 valuation reports which have been signed and stamped by the VG.

33. A total of thirteen LIRs have been collected from Morobe (13), Oro (4) and Milne Bay (6). There are four LIRs still with the CLO in , while the two in Misima were not collected during this reporting period. Plans were made to collect the two Misima LIRs, but bad weather prevents the team from travelling to Misima. Arrangements will be made to collect these LIRs before the next reporting period.

34. Eight survey plans have been registered and are in the Project office. These survey plans are for Autonomous Region of Bougainville (7) and Manus (1).

35. The eleven valuation reports are for sites in West New Britain (2), East New Britain (3), New Ireland (5) and Autonomous Region of Bougainville (1).

36. As of June 2018, the project has in total 69 LIRs initiated of which 62 are signed and stamped and copies are available in the project office. Those LIRs that are yet to be stamped are for Milne Bay (8), Popondetta (8) and Vanimo (1). There are also a total 83 registered survey plans and 11 valuation reports signed and stamped which are also in the Project office. The table in Appendix A gives details of the status of the land acquisition process.

7. GRIEVANCE REDRESS

37. During the reporting period, the CALC made short trips to four Provinces to collect the LIRs that were still with the PLOs/CLOs. The LIRs for Morobe were signed and stamped, however, the LIRs for Oro and Milne Bay were signed but not stamped. This shows that PLOs and CLOs are not aware that LIRs need to be stamped by the respective Provincial Administrators to make it a valid document.

38. The LIR for Vanimo Point in will be completed by the PLO in-charge as he was not available at the time when the CALC was in the Province. The officers present during the time could not locate the LIR. As for the four LIRs in Popondetta, the PLO will need to confirm that LIRs are within his possession before a CALC can travel to collect them.

8. CONCLUSION

39. Social safeguard monitoring and reporting follows the same described pattern of activities. The most unpredictable component in the community engagement programme is the land acquisition as landownership is a main cultural identity; families and clans in communities have different opinion and interests, which should be treated sensitively.

40. Part of the land acquisition process which the project is directly involves with have been completed which includes the initial visits for the LIR and site assessments for the surveyors and valuers. All LIRs have completed by the respective PLOs/ CLOs. Also 95% of the survey plans have been registered. Now the rest of the process is within DLPP and other government agencies before the lease instruments can be issued, which will take some time.

9. Recommended Activities:

41. The PMU CALCs will continuously follow-up with respective officers within DLPP with the LIRs and valuation reports. The CALCs will ensure that all documents required by the officers are delivered to them.

42. Work will continue on the NMSA GESI Policy.
