The Dengzhou City Government (DCG) of Henan Province, People’s Republic of China (PRC) has requested the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to provide investment and technical assistance support for the Henan Dengzhou Ecological Protection and Integrated Rehabilitation Project. The project’s outcome is water security and environmental sustainability in Dengzhou City improved. The project comprises three outputs: (i) urban and rural water infrastructure in Dengzhou City improved; (ii) ecological zones in Han River restored; and (iii) water resources management capacity enhanced. All the three outputs involve civil works and land acquisition and resettlement (LAR) impacts. The Project was categorized as A in term of involuntary resettlement in light of ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), requiring the preparation of a resettlement plan (RP). 2. The project has a construction period of 5 years, from 2020 to 2025. As planned, the LAR of the Project will begin in January 2020 and will be completed in December 2021. The estimated resettlement budget is 504.364 million yuan (prices in April 2019). 3. This RP will be updated based on the detailed design and the results of the Detailed Measurement Survey (DMS), and the updated RP will be submitted to ADB for review and approval prior to the commencement of resettlement and awards of civil works contracts. B. Land Acquisition and Resettlement (LAR) Impacts 4. The proposed project will affect 29 villager groups of 11 villages/communities in 5 towns of Dengzhou City in terms of LAR impacts. In total, 2,001.57 mu collective land will be acquired, including 1,817.82 mu cultivated/garden land and 183.75 mu rural construction land, affecting 769 HHs with 2,952 persons. In addition, 5,190.38 mu state-owned land (SOL), mainly the watercourse management land, will be occupied, without any affected people. A total of 2,953 mu land will be used temporarily (TLU) during construction. A total of 152,600 m2 of rural residential houses will be demolished (HD), with 525 HHs and 1,841 persons to be relocated. A total of 13,333 m2 of rural non-residential houses will be affected, with 2 agencies and 9 persons affected. In total, 793 HHs and 3,023 persons will be affected permanently by LAR of the project, meanwhile 2,260 HHs with 8,746 persons will be affected temporarily by temporary land use. 5. Within the range of the North to south open channel and West to east diversion channel under Output 1, the LAR has been completed before preparation of the Project; and a resettlement due diligence report (DDR) has been prepared to ensure there is no outstanding issues before the commencement of civil works (See appendix 1). i Resettlement Plan Henan Dengzhou Integrated River Restoration and Ecological Protection Project C. Policy Framework and Objective 6. This RP is based on the ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (2009), particularly Safeguard Requirements 2 for Involuntary resettlement; and the relevant domestic laws and regulations, including: the Land Administration Law of the PRC (2004), Decision of the State Council on Deepening the Reform and Rigidly Enforcing Land Administration (SC [2004] No.28), Guidelines on Improving Compensation and Resettlement Systems for Land Acquisition (MLR [2004] No.238), and the applicable policies of Henan Provincial Government and Dengzhou City Government. 7. The objective of compensation, livelihood restoration and resettlement is to achieve the same or better income and livelihood for affected persons (APs). D. Compensation Rates and Resettlement Entitlements 8. The compensation rates for LAR are determined based on the project’s resettlement policy framework and objective stated above. Based on the democratic decision-making procedures and local practices, each village committee will discuss with their affected villagers and then voluntarily decide the proportion of land compensation to be distributed to APs (at least 90%) and to be used by village collective for public affairs (but no more than 10%). Compensation for ground attachments, young crops, trees and other facilities on the affected land, and compensation of temporary land occupation will be directly paid to the APs. 9. The compensation rate for temporarily occupied farmland is based on the average annual output value (AAOV) of farmland in project area, and the expected period of occupation is one year. Compensation will be paid directly to the AHs. 10. Compensation for house demolition will be made according to the principle of full replacement cost. All the houses to be demolished by the Project are located in Tuanbei New District of Dengzhou City. The HHs affected by HD have two options, namely: (i) one-off cash compensation based on market assessment value, and (ii) combination of cash compensation based on stipulated prices and resettlement houses offered by the government. Under the latter option, the affected houses will be compensated as per the prices published by local government which are generally equal to the prices of resettlement houses to be provided to AHs. The resettled HHs will also receive transition subsidy during the transition period, on-schedule demolition rewards, moving subsidy and living allowance, etc. 11. The compensation rates for non-residential house demolition will be determined through market value assessment. In addition, subsidy for losses due to activity suspension will be provided. 12. Based on the applicable policy framework and compensation regulations, the draft RP includes an entitlement matrix for the project which summarizes the main compensation and restoration/resettlement rights of APs. E. Livelihood Rehabilitation and Resettlement Measures 13. For the preparation

  • New Discovery of Rock Art and Megalithic Sites in the Central Plain of China
    Rock Art Research 2012 - Volume 29, Number 2, pp. 157-170. TANG H. 157 KEYWORDS: Cupule – Rock art – Megalith – Cross-dating – Central Plain of China NEW DISCOVERY OF ROCK ART AND MEGALITHIC SITES IN THE CENTRAL PLAIN OF CHINA Tang Huisheng Abstract. Since the turn of this century, an immense amount of rock art has been discovered in Henan Province (located in the Central Plains region of China), centred at Mt Juci. Over 90 percent of the rock art consists of cupules and the remainder comprises linear groove patterns, chessboard-like designs and other motifs. The rock art features mainly ground motifs and patterns chiselled by metal tools. There are a variety of cupules, varying in size, depth and arrangement, e.g. occurring in rows, concentric patterns and so on. Rock art was executed on over 10 000 boulders, some of which could be classified as megalithic sites, such as menhirs, dolmen, ‘stone altars’ and the like. The cupules and the megaliths from the Central Plains region appear to show a structural context, which will help us to understand and identify their cultural nature, contents and ages. Based on cross-dating, their production could be considered as spanning the Neolithic and the Bronze Age. Since the turn of this century, a large quantity of a considerable surprise — not only to rock art studies, rock art has been discovered at Mt Juci, in Henan Pro- but also to archaeological studies and studies of early vince (located in the Central Plains region of China), Chinese history. Herein, we introduce the rock art of which has captured public attention and stimulated the Central Plain based on information mainly from Mt extensive interest in rock art studies.

  • Study on Carrying Capacity of Resources in Danjiangkou Reservoir Area Based on GIS Technologies
    Study on Carrying Capacity of Resources in Danjiangkou Reservoir Area based on GIS Technologies Ke Liu, Yuhang Gan, Zhengyu Luo and Fanghong Ye Land Satellite Remote Sensing Application Center, Ministry of Natural Resources of P. R. China, Beijing, China Keywords: Carrying Capacity of Relative Resources, Sustainable Development, Mid-Route of the South-North Water Diversion Project, Danjiangkou Reservoir, GIS. Abstract: The environmental health and green development of the water source area of Mid-Route of the South-North Water Diversion Project (SNWDP) is not only essential for ensuring that “The clear water is sent to Beijing”, but also an important prerequisite for sustainable development of society and economy in the water source area. Based on national geographic survey data, basic surveying and mapping data and statistical yearbook data, this paper used the model of relative carrying capacity of resources to estimate and analyze the carrying capacity of relative natural resources (CCRNR), carrying capacity of relative economic resources (CCRER) and carrying capacity of relative resources (CCRR) and their spatial-temporal changes in the Danjiangkou Reservoir area of the water source area of the Mid-Route of SNWDP from 2009 to 2015 by Geographic Information System (GIS) technologies. The results were shown that: (1) CCRR increased significantly compared with that in 2009. However, CCRR in the study area was still overloaded in 2015. (2) CCRNR was rich, but decreased from 2009 to 2015. (3) CCRER was in a overloading state, which increased obviously from 2009 to 2015. The improvement of CCRER was the main reason for the sustainable growth of carrying capacity in the study area.

Her family, along with many others, will move to Tanghe county in nearby Nanyang city to make way for the South-to-North Water Diversion Project. [Provided to China Daily] XICHUAN, Henan - The resettlement of more than 64,900 residents began on Thursday in Central China's Henan province to make way for a massive project that will divert water to arid regions in North China. All the residents are from Xichuan county in Henan, which is the only region in the province that requires resettlement for the project to proceed. In the first phase of the resettlement, 64,900 residents from 57 villages are to move to new homes on 63 sites in six cities in Henan by the end of August, said Yuan Yaosheng, Party secretary of Xichuan. A total of 161,000 residents, over one-fifth of the total population in the county, will be resettled before April 2011, according to local authorities. The massive South-to-North Water Diversion (SNWD) Project is designed to transfer water from the water-rich south, mainly the Yangtze River, to the drought-prone north and consists of three routes: eastern, middle and western. As many as 540,000 people will be resettled to make way for the middle and eastern routes, China's largest resettlement project since the Three Gorges Project, which involved the resettlement of 1.4 million people.

This study studies the rural areas of Henan Province, China, and uses unincorporated villages as the basic unit. The spatial pattern of accessibility in rural areas was comprehensively analyzed via geographic information system spatial analysis and coefficient of variation. The spatial heterogeneity of relevant influencing factors was assessed by using the geographically weighted regression model. The results show that: (1) The distance cost of medical treatment in rural areas is normally distributed, and most areas are within a range of 2–6 km. (2) The accessibility in rural areas has clear spatial differences, is significantly affected by terrain, and shows characteristics of significant spatial agglomeration. The eastern and central regions have good spatial accessibility, while the western regions have poor spatial accessibility.
