EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Tamilnadu Slum Clearance Board in the wake of the tsunami disaster (that occurred on December 26 2004, TNSCB has envisaged a project to rehabilitate the tsunami affected people at the Marina and to provide standardized housing tenements for the aforementioned populace and those living in the existing dilapidated tenements through requisite demolition and construction works. The project area comprises the villages of Nochikuppam, Nochi Nagar, Dommingkuppam, Selvarajapuram, Foreshore Estate and Srinivasapuram. The projected affected households comprise both fisher folk and non-fisher folk. The focus is on rehabilitation of Tsunami affected families and hence the in-situ resettlement has been taken up to ensure that the fishermen are resettled in the same area to constitute their livelihood to the extent possible. The Government of Tamilnadu is responsible for the implementation of the ETRP-Housing policy to reduce the vulnerability of coastal communities through the TNSCB. The TNSCB intends to reconstruct tenements after demolition of existing dilapidated tenements. Implementation is envisaged in two phases, namely Phase – I which comprises of three areas namely Area-1 (Nochikuppam and Nochi Nagar), Area-2 (Dommingkuppam and Selvarajapuram), Area-3 (Foreshore Estate) and Phase–II (Srinivasapuram). It is proposed to construct 5856 permanent shelters in four sites as detailed in the table below: Details of Permanent Structures - Phase - I & Phase - II Area of No of Site Area each Survey S.No Location Permanent Ownership Details (Ha) shelter No. Shelters (Sq.m ) PHASE - I 1 Site-1 Nochikuppam 3.3264 1452 33.20 7577 & 7580 TNSCB 2 Site-2 Dommingkuppam 1.8300 828 33.20 7585 pt & 7587 pt TNSCB 3 Site-3 Foreshore Estate 2.8223 992 33.20 7587 pt & 7588 pt TNSCB PHASE – II 7590,4593/34 pt & Site-4 Srinivasapuram 6.2000 2584 33.20 TNSCB 4593/39 Total 5856 Inorder to provide shelters for the affected communities during the construction phase, the project also envisages to provide 3636 temporary shelters at five locations within the project area as shown in the table below.
