• General Information of the Project

General Information of the Project Guizhou is a very beautiful inland mountainous province with unique and abundant natural heritage and cultural resources. Guizhou combines magnificent and magically beautiful natural sceneries with treasured traditional ethnic customs and cultures. In order to: 1. preserve and protect many of these precious natural heritages of Guizhou Province, 2. to improve the ecological environment, 3. to protect and continuously pass on Guizhou’s rich ethnic cultural heritages, 4. to develop a sustainable tourism industry, with local economic benefits, and 5. to help the poverty-stricken farmers and tenants in these natural and cultural heritage regions raise their standard of living, Guizhou Province has applied for a loan of 60 million US dollars from the World Bank. The construction components of the Project mainly include: 1. improving the environment and infrastructure conditions of the project areas; 2. refurbishing and maintaining the antique buildings and typical ethnic traditional buildings; 3. providing buildings to house and protect traditional ethnic cultural relics and antique; 4. providing personnel technical training and 5. establishing special institutions and research institutes for the protection, salvage, unearthing and passing on of intangible ethnic cultural heritages; 6. technical assistance Project Proposal of the World Bank Loan Project: Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection and Development Project has been approved by Guizhou Provincial Development and Reform Commission in December of 2006. Project Composition The World Bank Loan Project: Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection and Development Project include 31subprojects. Altogether, the project involves 19 cities and counties. According to the different construction requirements of the subprojects and the different operational modes, the 31 subprojects fall into 5 categories: (1) 18 projects are in villages and ancient towns involving ethnic cultural heritage protection, (2) there are 4 ancient town protection and development projects, (3) there are 4 natural heritage and scenic area protection and development projects, (4) there are 5 window city tourism and culture facilities projects, (5) technical assistance and intangible cultural heritage protections are intervened into each subproject, not involving any land use after analysis. Land Occupation The 31subprojects involve permanent land occupation of 1,443.53 mu, of which, 162.80 mu are state-owned land, 54.22 mu of collective-owned land are required,

1 Resettlement Plan of World Bank Loan Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection Project c and 1,226.5 mu collective-owned land are to be adjusted. The Project involves dismantling 17,735.62 square meters of housing units and temporary land occupation of 142.80 mu. Among the 31 subprojects, 4 subprojects involve collective-owned land acquisition, among which, the land acquired by Xingyi National Geological Park Dingxiao Guizhou Dragon Heritage Protection Project and Guanling National Geological Park Project is collective-owned barren hills, affecting zero population, and therefore it is not need to compile a resettlement plan. Longli Ancient Town Protection Project of Jinping County involves land acquisition, so their resettlement plans have been compiled. 15 subprojects involve collective- owned land adjustment. (Refer to World Bank Loan Project Resettlement Policy Framework of Guizhou Province for the collective-owned land adjustment procedure.) 14 subprojects involve state-owned land appropriation. The project construction content and land use information are detailed in table 1-1. The types of land use of the villages and ancient towns projects include the following types: (1) Land acquisition. According to the Reply to the 53rd Proposal Brought up by the Party Organizations in the Third Session of Guizhou Province Ninth Political Consultative Conference issued by Guizhou provincial government in 2005, Guizhou Province Nationality Folk Culture Protection Regulation and Guizhou Province Tourism Development General Planning enacted in 2002, village projects can be classified into: provincial key protection village and non provincial key protection village. Longli Ancient Town Protection Project of Jinping County belongs to a provincial key protection village project. The property rights and management rights of the subproject belong to villagers committee or the village tourism association and the benefits of the subproject belong to the villager collectivitybut the construction lands of the subproject have to be acquired by the Project. Detailed resettlement plans have been compiled based on the policy of the World Bank. (2) Collective-owned land adjustment. For the non provincial key protection village, if the jurisdiction and benefit of the village protection project is owned by the villager committee and the village tourism association, the collective-owned land used by the Project can be obtained through land adjustment based on a full consultation among the villagers therefore there is no need to compile a resettlement plan. But if the villagers can not on the basis of consultations to agree on the adjustment programmes, loans will not to support it. The use lands of 15 village protection subprojects are obtained through land adjustment through consultations. About the procedure for adjustment of collective land please refer to World Bank Loan Project Resettlement Policy Framework of Guizhou Province (3) State-owned land appropriation. Project construction locations of Jiuzhou Ancient Town Heritage Protection of Huangping County and Tianlong Ancient Village Cultural Heritage Protection are in the town areas and on lands belonging to the county. The subprojects can therefore acquire land through the appropriation of state-owned lands. Though some village projects are located in villages, the lands required are the state-owned lands of villages, such as the construction land of original township government, clinics and elementary school which abandoned for a

2 Resettlement Plan of World Bank Loan Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection Project c long time. These vacant lands, originally designated by the county for such projects but left unused, are also state-owned lands. Through negotiation, the village projects may obtain these lands through land appropriation free of expenses. The local government can also negotiate with the committee to share the benefits as shareholder in the form of land. About the procedure of negotiation, please refer to Operation Manual for Community Participation

Project Preparation and Resettlement Action Plan Progress In 2003, the Guizhou Development and Reform Commission of Guizhou Province, the Tourism Bureau of Guizhou Province and Guizhou Construction Department combined to propose utilizing a World Bank Loan to develop Guizhou cultural and natural heritage protection infrastructure. Their proposal was then put forwards to China Development and Reform Commission. Through study and negotiation with the World Bank, with the approval of China State Council, China Development and Reform Commission has agreed to list Guizhou Province’s cultural and natural heritage protection and development project as China’s World Bank Loan priority 2007~2009. From 2005 to 2007, World Bank expert teams have conducted several identification tours to Guizhou in respect to this project. Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection and Development Project Office (hereby abbreviated as PPMO) has entrusted Guizhou Architecture Design and Research Institute and Guizhou Urban and Rural Planning Design and Research Institute to compile the project feasibility study report on the loan of the World Bank. At the same time, the project’s resettlement plan, social evaluation and environmental evaluation report, etc. are being compiled. With the careful planning of PPMO, each subproject, the design institutes and the social evaluation and environment evaluation organizations have made great effort to ensure that the preparation and progress of the project is sound. Based on a extensive investigation, the draft of the general report of the resettlement for this Project was completed in November of 2007. It was presented for the preliminary review to the World Bank expert team for further comments and modification so that a feasible resettlement action plan could be in place. Refer to table 1-2 for the detailed project progress status.

Measures for resettlement mitigation In the Project planning design phase, the Project’s construction impact on the local society and economy has been studied and all construction alternatives have been compared to minimize local displacements and discomfort. Wherever land occupation is required the Project has made every effort to utilize barren fields,

19 Resettlement Plan of World Bank Loan Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection Project c bottomland or state-owned land, which reduces the need for the occupation of cultivated land. Where dismantlement is involved, the project mitigates the impacts as much as possible. The Project’s resettlement impact mitigation measures are detailed in table 1-3.

Identification of Linkage Projects Correlated projects are defined as other projects related to the Project constructed functions or benefits in the course of the project preparation and implementation. That is, during the preparation and construction period of the project, other projects utilizing non World Bank loan funds may supplement Project construction. During the project design process, the project owners will place great emphasis on identifying correlated projects. The PPMO and the subproject organization and the design institutes have carried out analysis of the correlation construction opportunities. This analysis has shown no correlated projects in all the subprojects.

• Project Impacts According to the feasibility study report of the World Bank Loan Project: Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection and Development Project and the report of the Qian Dongnan Subproject, it is investigated that the 31subprojects involve permanent land occupation totaling 1443.53 mu, among which the state-owned land is 162.80 mu, collective-owned land acquisition is 54.22mu, and collective-owned land adjustment is 1226.5mu. The project involves house demolition of 17,735.62 square meters and temporary land occupation of 142.80mu. The resettlement impacts and socio-economic survey shows that only Longli Ancient Town Heritage Protection Project may induce land acquisition and house demolition. Therefore, the report will mainly deal with the land acquisition impact on the resettlement plan of Longli Ancient Town Heritage Protection Project, Jinping County. Survey of the Project Impacts According to the requirement of the World Bank and the PPMO, the Project institution of Longli Ancient Town Protection Project of Jinping County has cooperated with relevant departments such as National Land Resources Bureau and each township government and village committee to carry out a detailed survey of the project impacts, such as project–affected permanent land acquisition/occupation, temporary land occupation, rural residential houses dismantlement, administrative departments, business shops and other ground attachments during the period from June 15th to 25th of 2007. At the same time, the rural socio-economic situation affected by land acquisition and relocation was surveyed. The persons impacted participated in the survey of the in-kind1 quantity affected by the project land acquisition and resettlement. The survey group also collected the opinions of villagers, administrative departments, shops owners on the dismantlement and the resettlement, and carried out an extensive consultation with them.

The survey shows that it is not likely to readjust the land for displaced persons. The main reasons are as follows: (a) displaced persons think the cost for each mu of cultivated land will take up over 50% of the output value, and at present the traditional farming mode will remain dominant, resulting in too small an income; (b). all the cultivated land has been subcontracted to each household, with no land to be transferred; (c) the local villagers have a strong market awareness. Therefore they want to make use of this opportunity to develop non-agricultural businesses. For the land adjustment between villagers, both sides have to agree, sign an agreement and file it with the township government. Through consultation between the village collective and the affected farmers, the land compensation rates, resettlement subsidies and crop compensation fees of the acquired paddy field will be paid fully to the affected farmers. After obtaining the compensation funds, the displaced persons will mainly invest in businesses, crop cultivation, livestock, fish breeding, poultry raising, and technique training. (2) No population will be affected in the acquisition of collective-owned wood land, pond, vacant lot and barren land, so there are only land compensation fees. It will be all retained in the village collective as a special fund, which can be used for infrastructure construction and other public welfare undertakings, such as farmland water conservancy matched facilities, road and for assisting the vulnerable groups in the village. (3) As to the acquired collective-owned house sites, the displaced persons will have options for compensation. All compensation rates will be paid to the displaced

According to the analysis, such type of projects will not involve usage of land.

Resettlement Policy Framework

After identification, this World Bank Loan project concerns the protection and development of Guizhou cultural and natural heritage, involving 234 subprojects. The protection of LongLi old town in JinPing county involves land and acquisition and displacement, where detailed Resettlement Action Plans (RAP) have been made. This policy framework is suitable for the following four situations: (1) The village and town sub-projects, either complying with the province level cultural heritage protection plan require the land acquisition or not including in the province level cultural heritage protection plan need the land adjustment; (2) Concerning scenic area sub-projects, most of the land taken is state-owned, and even a few collective lands are acquired, no person is affected in such situation, but it may change in the implementation process; (3) Regarding sub-projects of the research center or service center at the city or town level or other like projects, it is planned to use state-owned free land for construction, but the area and ownership of land may change later in a more detailed plan; (4) Long Li ancient town at Jin Ping County involves displacement, but the specific location for resettlement and the type and the area of land to be taken have not yet been decided. The four situations mentioned above are likely to result in involuntary resettlements. Whenever involuntary resettlement happens, the current document (RPF) will serve as the guide for devising and implementing a resettlement plan.

Resettlement Plan of World Bank Loan Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection Project c

2. Principles and Objectives

2.1 General provisions

In a World Bank-assisted project, the final borrowers or project owners are expected to take all measures necessary to minimize any adverse social impacts of the project. Where there are adverse impacts on the PAPs, it is the borrower’s responsibility to pay all the relevant costs, such as resettlement cost and cost for restoring work and life activities, to mitigate such impacts. The general provisions of this resettlement policy framework must be conformed by all loan projects involving involuntary resettlement. When the adverse social impacts of the project arise, the resettlement plans should be made in accordance with the policy and methods prescribed in this framework. Involuntary resettlement and land acquisition incurred by any project should be avoided or minimized. Where some projects cannot avoid taking land, houses and other assets, the current resettlement policy framework should be used. The main objective of the resettlement policy framework is to ensure all Project Affected Persons (PAP) will be compensated according to their loss, provided with resettlement help and assisted in improving or, at least, restoring their standards of living and productive ability to the pre-displacement levels.

2.2 Identification of the affected people

The PAPs are identified according to the basic information gathered about them. The criteria of eligibility are as follows: a) Those whose company, workplaces or farmland are partially or completely affected by the subproject, whether permanent or temporary; b) Those whose houses are partially or completely affected by the subproject; c) Those whose business activities are partially or completely affected by the project, whether permanent or temporary; d) Those whose crops (seasonal or year-round), trees and fixed assets are partially or completely affected by the project.

2.3 Relevant principles in the World Bank Operational/ Bank Procedure on Involuntary Resettlement (OP/BP 4.12)

Principles in the World Bank OP/BP 4.12 are conformed to in the preparation of the current resettlement policy framework. Specifically, the principles and objectives are as follows: a) Involuntary resettlement and acquiring of land or other assets should be minimized. Where the land acquisition cannot be avoided, the projects should aim to minimize the negative impact on any affected people, especially the disadvantaged. b) If necessary, all people affected by the projects will be compensated, relocated and assisted in their efforts to improve their livelihoods and standards of living or at least to restore them to pre-displacement levels; c) All PAPs who live within the scope of the social and economical investigation project, in procession of farmland or other assets, are eligible to receive compensation for their loss and/or cost for restoring their ability to produce. Where the affected persons do not have the 11

Resettlement Plan of World Bank Loan Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection Project c legal right to the assets they are in possession of, they are still entitled to the compensation, restoration and settlement measures for any loss. d) Resettlement and restoration measures to be taken include: (1) compensation at full replacement cost for houses or other buildings; (2) land replacement and resettlement assistance for affected villages and farmers; (3) transitional assistance and moving allowance; (4) full compensation for crops, timber and other agricultural produce alike according to market price; (5) compensation for other assets and measures to recover loss in their work or life. e) Replacement houses, lands, business sites and farmlands should be as close to those taken as possible and acceptable to the displaced persons; f) Preference should be given to land replacement. Payment of cash compensation for lost assets may be appropriate where: (1) there is no land near the project region available for replacement; (2) the PAPs are willing to accept cash compensation for the land and the affiliated items, at fair prices; (3) combining cash compensation, proper restoration measures and benefits from the project, the PAPs’ income should be restore at least to pre-displacement levels; g) Replacement land or cash replacement before the start of a specific project can reduce the transitional period for resettlement; h) Any resettlement plans must be discussed among and agreed to by the PAPs before being implemented.; i) The quality of community service and means of acquiring resources must be enhanced or at least equivalent to the pre-displacement site. j) All means must be taken to ensure that the displaced persons are provided with sustainable and equivalent resource (to the pre-displacement level) so as to reduce the adverse impact from taking or limiting the private or public resources owned or managed by the displaced persons; k) Where necessary, the displaced persons will be supplied with the financial aid and resources for resettlement and restoration; l) Appropriate organizational arrangements should be included in the resettlement plan to ensure prompt, effective design, planning and implementation of resettlement and restoration measures; m) Prompt and effective internal and external monitoring arrangements should be made during the implementation process of the resettlement measures; n) All means must be taken to ensure that the residents in the affected area can benefit from the projects themselves or the facilities and service created from the projects.

3. The Preparation and Approval of the Resettlement Plan

3.1 Approval procedure of the resettlement plan

Where a project or part of a project involves involuntary resettlement, a social and economical investigation must be carried out to identify the area and population affected by the project. This investigation serves to determine whether a Full Resettlement Plan or an Short Resettlement Plan (SRP) need be prepared to mitigate the negative impact on the affected communities and their ability to benefit from the project. The approval procedure for a resettlement plan is as follows: a) In the initial stage of the project, the project owner should submit a preliminary report to the World Bank Project Office- Protection of Cultural and Natural Heritage of Guizhou Province and the local government. The following basic information should be included in the preliminary report: (i) proposed location of the project; (ii) total area of land needed, types, current usage of the land, possible impact from changing the usage of the land, and the proposed land requisition, dismantlement and relocation plan. (iii) PAPs, including those who will loose their home, land or livelihood because of the project and those who benefit from the project (through economic boom, increased employment and improved environment). b) After negotiation and discussion with the local government, the World Bank Loan Project Office of Guizhou Provincial Tourist Bureau will inform and require the project owners to make a document on resettlement measures according to this resettlement policy framework; c) Where a project is likely to involve involuntary resettlement, a satisfactory RP or SRP is required by the World Bank. The RP or SRP made according to this resettlement policy framework must go through the approval process of the World Bank, before the project can receive World Bank funding. When the project affects more than 200 persons, a RP must be prepared; when the affected population is smaller than 200 or where no person is displaced and the lost of their assets is less than 10%, an SRP can be made through negotiation with the borrower. d) The project owners are responsible for making the RP or SRP and summiting it to the local government, project administrative office and the World Bank for approval; e) The World Bank will verify if the report sufficiently conforms to the policies, principles and procedures prescribed by this resettlement policy framework, and inform the project owners of its decision. Before the report is officially approved by the World Bank, no fee should be disbursed. f) After the report is approved by the World Bank, the project owner should carry out and bring into effect the RP or SRP, including the articles prescribed in the resettlement policy framework.

3.2 Main content of the Short Resettlement Plan (SRP)

According to the resettlement policy framework, an individual SRP must be made for each subproject, which should include the following: a) Census of the displaced persons and assessment of their assets; b) Provide information on compensation and other assistance measures for resettlement; c) Choose from alternatives through negotiation with the displaced persons; d) Responsibilities of the implementing organization and process of appeal;

Resettlement Plan of World Bank Loan Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection Project c e) Arrangements for monitoring and implementation; f) Schedules and budgets

3.3 Detailed content of the Resettlement Plan (RP)

It is not necessary to include in the RP the items already prescribed in the resettlement policy framework as: policies, rights, eligibility criteria, organization arrangements monitoring and assessment process, public participation framework, appeal mechanism, etc. A detailed resettlement plan of a specific project should include the following information: census and social economical investigation, specific criteria and amount of compensation, policies addressing other impacts revealed in the census and investigation, relocation site and plans for restoring the PAPs’ livelihood, schedule for implementation activities and substantial cost estimates. Components of the resettlement plan include: a) Description of the project; b) Possible impact; c) Census, social, and economic impacts; d) Other policy rights; e) Standards of compensation; f) Relocation plan; g) Choice, preparation of relocation site and preparation for moving; h) Housing, infrastructure facilities and social service; i) Implementation schedule; j) Cost and budget

4. The update of the RAP

It is expected that the impact of the new items in the cultural and natural heritage site protection project is limited. During the period of implementation, new items may be added and some original items may be altered, and thus there will be need for a new resettlement plan to be made or the original one to be changed or renewed.

5. Legal Framework

5.1 Laws and regulations for the resettlement plan

The policy of the current project is framed according to national, provincial and local laws and regulations concerning land acquisition and resettlement, as well as the World Bank Operational Policies on Involuntary Resettlement (OP4.12). The objective of the legal framework is to optimize the usage of World Bank loan to implement the protection and development of the cultural and natural heritage of Guizhou Province, by means of safeguarding the legal rights of the affected persons and organizations. The main framework is as follows:

5.2 Related laws and main articles

As far as the current project is concerned, The Law of Land Administration of the People’s Republic of China serves as the legal basis for policy-making. Guizhou Province has also enacted its own regulations on land administration accordingly. Main articles related to the resettlement project are listed in the following table. In October 2004, the State Council promulgated Decision of the State Council on Deepening Reform and Strengthening Land Administration (Decree No. 28, 2004), further clarifying the compensation principles for land acquisition and resettlement, compensation standards, land requisition procedure and monitoring mechanism.

(b) The affected persons will receive full compensation for the replacement cost, excluding the depreciation of other fixed assets partially or wholly affected by the subprojects. 9. Organizational Structure

Although the project owners are mainly responsible for implementing the resettlement policy framework and executing the resettlement plan, the World Bank project office of the Guizhou provincial tourism department, acting on behalf of the people’s government of Guizhou Province, will share with the local government the responsibility of monitoring. The Guizhou provincial tourism department entrusts the World Bank office to carry out daily monitoring of the project according to the requirement of the World Bank, ensuring the satisfactory effect of the resettlement policy framework. 10. Implementation Process

A detailed plan of the resettlement activities is included in the resettlement plan. The payment of compensation, preparation of equipments and resources for restoration and reconstruction and relocation of affected persons and organizations shall be finished at least one month before the scheduled starting date of the specific project. 11. Appeal Mechanisms

Since the affected persons participate in all aspects during the whole resettlement process, it is expected that no significant problems will occur. Nevertheless, to ensure the means of appeal for the displaced persons to express their doubts on any issue concerning land requisition and resettlement, an appeal procedure is set up in the current resettlement policy framework. The objective of the procedure is to respond to the complaints of the displaced persons promptly and openly, avoiding complicated official procedures if possible.

30 Resettlement Plan of World Bank Loan Guizhou Cultural and Natural Heritage Protection Project c

The procedure is as follows: a) Firstly, anyone who is not satisfied with anything in the resettlement plan may appeal to the local village committee, people’s government at the district/town level, community committee and the local government, orally or in written form. The relevant local departments should settle the problem within two weeks of the receipt of the complaint. b) Secondly, if he/she who appealed is not satisfied with the judgment of the local government, he/she may appeal to the project coordination office after the former decision is made. The project coordination group shall make a decision within two weeks of the receipt of the appeal. c) Thirdly, is he/she who appealed is still not satisfied with the verdict of the second stage, the case may be handed in to the Ministry of Land and Resources for further decision. d) Fourthly, if the result of the third stage is still not satisfactory enough, the case can be handed to the people’s court to be dealt with as civil action. e) 12. Allocation of Funds

The compensation fee for the acquisition of land and resettlement plan comes from corresponding funds within the country. All fees shall be given to the displaced persons before their land is acquisition and their houses dismantled.

13. Consultation with, and participation of, the displaced persons

The project owner must establish negotiation mechanisms within the area of the project, enabling the general public to participate. Adopting measures that are widely accepted by displaced persons would be necessary for the resettlement plan to be approved, such as, notifying the resettlement area, replacement land, compensation policy and compensation standards and measures for restoring income levels. The displaced persons shall participate in all stages of the making and implementation of the resettlement plan. Thus, before the making of the resettlement plan, relevant regulations in the resettlement plan shall be notified publicly to the displaced persons. Relevant departments of the local government shall introduce comprehensively to the affected families the rights of the displaced persons and the alternative restoration plans within different resettlement plans. 14. Monitoring Process

The internal monitoring of resettlement impacts will be carried out by the project owners as an independent part of the implementation process. Internal monitoring includes assessment of the whole process of the project and post-project assessment. The monitoring process evaluates the completed part of the project against its main objectives, and thus suggests necessary changes to the original plan. Reports of the internal monitoring will be periodically submitted to the World Bank. Furthermore, between the implementation and assessment of the project, the project office will entrust a fair, independent third party to carry out independent, external supervision of the World Bank approved resettlement plan. The supervision will generally be carried out twice a year, and the external supervision report will be periodically submitted to the
