SUMMARY ETHNIC MINORITIES DEVELOPMENT PLAN

A. Introduction

This plan is prepared to better safeguard the all the affected people, regardless their ethnic identities, within the Project area (PA). 31.9% of the affected populations are minorities. Adequate provisions to enhance the economic conditions of vulnerable groups have been integrated in Project design. Current government policies and programs further help to protect and enhance project benefits to ethnic minority groups.

Guiyang Water Resource Bureau, with the assistance of PPTA consultants and the design institutions, had constantly consulted the affected people and their communities, the Guiyang Municipal and the project county governments and their line agencies. The consulted line agencies included ethnic minority affairs bureau, poverty reduction office, land administration bureau, reform and development bureau (i.e., planning bureau), water resource bureau, the women’s federation, etc. This document, therefore, represents the joint decisions of both GM and project area authorities.

B. Ethnic Minorities in the Project Area

Total minority population in PA is estimated to be 2,015 or 15.2% of the total population by 2004, which is as most the same as the average municipal proportion of 15.4%. The largest ethnic minority is Miao, 54% of the total ethnic minority population in the project area, and the second is Bouyei, 44% of the total ethnic minority population in the project area.

C. Socioeconomic Characteristics of the Ethnic Minorities

Ethnic Minorities live in harmony in the PA and inter-marriages are common amongst Miao, Bouyei and Han. Miao and Bouyei people have distinct ethnic identities and language. They celebrate special festivals of their own during the year. Some people, especially women, wear distinctive ethnic clothing, at least on some occasions. In the subproject area, most agricultural and other livelihood activities are very similar for ethnic minorities and ethnic Han people.

Income and Poverty. The net income per capita in the rural area ranges from CNY 2,409 to CNY 3,512. In the affected villages, there are about 10% rural poor people whose per capita income is below CNY 1,200, the poverty line set by the Guizhou Government.

Gender Aspects. Gender group discussion indicates a good equity or at least an ever- improving equity status between rural women and men. In rural area, farming activities are shared by men and women, while women having primary responsibility for domestic activities and men for arduous farming activities. The family income is usually jointly managed by husband and wife, while women play more role in the decision-making of family income and expenditure. The rate of divorce is low because people find their husbands or wives by their own will, which also indicates that women have a good social position at their families. In the urban area, the education and employment are almost the same between men and women.

D. Impacts of Resettlement

The permanent land loss from the subproject will be 3,128.7 mu (208.6 ha) land areas, of which, about 30% are farmland with 1,311 people, including 465 ethnic minority people affected. Temporary occupied land will be 7.9 ha, among which, 30% are farmland, which will affect 173 persons, none of them are ethnic minority people.

Yudongxia EMDP 1 5/4/2007 Guiyang Integrated Water Resources Management Project Black & Veatch (Asia) Ltd

Along with the land loss, 212 people in 53 households will lose their houses and structures, with an area totaling 12,759 sq m. The Jinlonggu Tourist Spot will be entirely flooded, and part of the Yudongxia Scenic spot. All the people affected by houses and other assets are ethnic minority people in two ethnic minority villages.

E. Overall Impact and Minority Beneficiaries

The project will have some negative impacts of resettlement which will be mitigated as detailed in the Resettlement Plan, and more positive impacts of improving agricultural irrigation conditions and providing drinking water for the residents in urban area of Guiyang City.

The project will directly benefit 182,000 urban residents, of which, 23,280 are ethnic minority people.

F. Expectations and Concerns

The overall conclusion from public consultation is that the needs and aspirations of ethnic minorities in the project area are the same as their Han neighbors. They want to reconstruct their houses by themselves within the village whether planned by the village or moving backwards. They want lump sum compensation for their existing houses prior to the demolishment. They also want to restore the infrastructure within the village to be damaged by the project for benefit of daily life and production, and show their full interest in their preferred options of resettlement and income restoration strategy. They want to be fully included in project activities and are similarly interested in benefiting from in the water supplied by the Water Plant and have similar views about water pricing.

G. Action Plan

The Project will apply a mainstreaming strategy to ensure full participation of ethnic minority people and ensure that any persons affected by land acquisition and resettlement are better off after the project. Table 8 presents the main ways in which the project will have impacts on ethnic minority people, targets, number of ethnic minority people affected, budget information, and timing.

H. Implementation Arrangement, M&E

The PMO, Guiyang Water Resource Bureau, and the contractors, will play a leading role in implementing most of the construction-related measures previously presented. County governments will take the leading role in implementing the supportive measures such as agricultural extension, rural infrastructure improvement, etc.

The PMO will monitor the targets identified in the EMDP and update information as implementation proceeds. An external monitoring agency will be engaged in the annual review of ethnic minority’s development in the project and may be asked to advise if specific needs are identified.

(v) protection from water and soil losses in the upper catchments of the water sources (800 km2) with farm land restructuring, conversion of sloping farmland to terraces, tree or grass planting areas, and fruit tree planting.

5. During the PPTA stage, six core subprojects have been selected:

(1) Yudongxia Reservoir Urban Water Supply Subproject, (2) Jinlong Reservoir County Water Supply Subproject, (3) Liaojiuzhai Reservoir Water Supply and Irrigation Subproject, (4) Wudang District Midsize Irrigation System Rehabilitation Subproject, (5) Xifeng County Small-scale Water Storage Subproject, and (6) Huaxi Reservoir Soil and Water Conservation Subproject.

6 On the basis of the review of six selected core subprojects by PPTA consultant and Guiyang Project Management Office (GPMO), four core subprojects are to have ethnic minorities development plans. Ethnic minorities development plans (EMDPs) for Yudongxia and Jinlong Reservoirs, Wudang Irrigation Rehabilitation and Huaxi Water and Soil Conservation are needed as part of the project preparation.

1.2 Subproject description

7. The Yudongxia Reservoir Urban Water Supply Subproject comprises 3 components: (1) Dam construction of Yudongxia Reservoir and (2) Water Treatment and Supply Plant (Water Treatment Plant), and (3) Raw Water delivery pipeline and water distribution network.

8. The planned Yudongxia reservoir, one of the planned major water resources in GM, will be constructed at the Toupu village, Dongfeng Town, Wudang District. It is located on Yudong river, branch of Nanming river, 3 km from Dongfeng Town, Wudang District, 8 km east of Wudang District Government, and 18 km away from the urban area of GM.

9. The dam of the planned reservoir will be located 40m away downstream from the existing Toupu hydropower dam. The area flooded by the reservoir will total 1,766mu of the subproject, covering parts of 8 villages in Wudang District, GM, and 1 village in Longli County, Qiannan Bouyi and Miao Autonomous Prefecture. The reservoir will have a capacity of 18.6 million m3 and 127,000 m3/day provision for the domestic and industrial usage in the east urban area and Xintian area, as well as the original irrigation of agricultural production and drinking water for people and animals in the rural area.

10. The No.2 Dongjiao Water Treatment Plant will be constructed near Toupu village, Dongfeng Town, Wudang District, on the hillside right of the dam to be constructed. It has an area of 164 mu, covering three villages of Dongfeng Town. The planned water provision of 100,000 m3/d will be delivered to Xintian Town, Dongfeng Town and the planned Luowan Industry Development Area in Wudang District.

11. The construction of water pipe and its network for the water supply includes laying a new system and improving the existing aged system. The new network will include water tanks on high elevation, connecting with the existing water transmission pipes. The new pipe, totaling 16.5km length, will be constructed in 2 villages of Dongfeng Town in Wudang District.

12. Due to the vast expansion of urban area and the urban population, the water usage in the subproject area in 2005 has a total of 66,557 m3/d, and the water supply is 43,000 m3/d, with 40,000 m3/d from Yunjing Water Treatment Plant and 3,000 m3/d from Wudang Water Treatment Plant. Present shortage of 23,500m3/day of water supply in the area will be compensated by the new water plant, so as to ease the gap between the demand and supply of water and promote the economic development in the area.

Yudongxia EMDP S-2 5/4/2007 Guiyang Integrated Water Resources Management Project Black & Veatch (Asia) Ltd

13. The work of the Sub-project is scheduled to commence before 2007 with construction period of 3 years and a total cost of CNY 355 million. The completion of the subproject will meet the demand of water supply in GM and play a vital role of promoting the economic development in the area.

1.3 Objectives of the EMDP

2.3 Government Activities for Ethnic Minority Development in the Subproject Area

24. In autonomous regions, prefectures, and counties in China, all activities are minority development oriented. In other words, the central task of the autonomous governments is to promote minority people’s development. Longli County is an autonomous county, a part of Qiannan (Bouyei and Miao) Autonomous Prefecture, which enables the county to obtain some additional support from the provincial and central government for the ethnic minority people. The master plan and sector development plan to be implemented in the ‘11th-five- year Plan’ in the subproject area include but are not limited to:

y Agricultural Development Plan by improving the conditions of agricultural production such as a program of soil and water conservation y Readjustment of agricultural production by promoting production of vegetables and commercial crops y Animal and aqua-product breeding by improving the excellent cross-bred stock, large scale production, and operating as industry y Township enterprise development plan by promoting the additional agricultural products, creating added-value so to increase to farmer’s income, and by developing handicraft industry like embroidery and root carving y Tourism Development by developing rural tourism integrated with farmers’ livelihoods

25. These plans, integrated into the ‘11th-five-year Plan’ for socio-economic development for ethnic groups in the subproject area, are often linked with various sectors in the government programs, e.g., agriculture, industry and tourist authorities, especially the poverty alleviation agencies. Budgets for implementing these plans, as well as for other activities, are pre-determined and included in government annual expenditure plan.

26. The Bureau of Ethnic Minorities and Religious Affairs (BEMA), as a member of the government will participate in the implementation of the ‘11th-five-year Plan’, especially on the aspects related with ethnic minority people. The BEMA’s activities are usually jointed with that from Poverty Reduction Office.

27. The development programs to be implemented entirely or jointly by the BEMA are mainly on construction of new socialist countryside for infrastructure construction, health and education in the rural area. Table 2 summarizes the main government activities implemented to support social and economic development in the project area, including specific programs implemented by the Bureau of Ethnic Minorities and Religious Affairs (BEMA).

2.4 Local Social Organization and Stakeholder Analysis

28. The stakeholder analysis of the subproject is summarized in Table 3.

29. The farmers, residents and enterprises in SAA will be affected by land and asset loss, and resultant income loss, which will be mitigated by the measures proposed in the Resettlement Plan (RP). Special attention shall be given to the stakeholders of the 2 scenery spots, which will be flooded by the proposed reservoir construction. They showed their reluctant voluntariness and supportiveness for the proposed project, if their impact of assets and income loss can be reasonably mitigated by the project implementation agency.

30. The residents and enterprises in SBA will gain greater benefits, as the construction of Water Plant will ensure water supply with good quality and meet the requirements of increased demand of water supply due to the vast expansion of urban area and continuing economic development in the area.

31. As for the governments at various levels, their objective is to enrich the local economic development. The construction of this project will strengthen agricultural infrastructure, which can help guarantee increased agricultural yield and income. The project owner is the Water Resources Bureau which is the department authorized to administer water on behalf of the government. Its management objective is should follow that of the government. The project itself has a certain promotional role for local economy, which will drive the development of building material and service sectors, in keeping with the development purpose of owner and township/village governments.

32. In general, all different stakeholders welcome the construction of this project.

2.5.2 Socioeconomic Characteristics in SAA

34. The per-capita farmland in SAA is 0.64 mu person, less than half of that in Wudang District. As shown in Table 5, the per capita income among the affected villages ranges from CNY 2,409 to CNY 3,512 with the lowest from Dayan Bouyei village in Longli County. It is equivalent to that of CNY 3,145 in Wudang District, except for the Dayan village. About one tenth of the people are below CNY 1,200 per capita, the rural poverty line in Guizhou Province. Most of them are suffering from the disabled or disease, and the shortage of labor, which makes it hard to escape poverty and attain prosperity. Basically, 80% of rural poor households are labor-short households.

Source: Data from Town/township Governments.

35. In accordance with the Resettlement Plan of Yudongxia Reservoir and No 2 Donjiao Water Treatment Plant, villages in SAA mostly engage in agricultural farming with major crops of rice, corn, and rapeseed. In addition, peach and vegetables are also grown in this area. Two villages, Dayan and Ganjing Village are adversely affected by the reservoir development. Dayan Village has 283 households, with a population of 1,258 and cultivated land of 3,585.29 mu. Ganjing Village has 487 households, with a population of 1,796 and cultivated land of 4,220.62 mu.

2.5.3 Cultural Beliefs

36. Bouyei and Miao people have distinct ethnic identities and language. They celebrate special festivals of their own during the year. Some people, especially elder women, wear distinctive ethnic clothing, at least on some occasions. Most ethnic minority people also speak the Guiyang dialect of Chinese. In the subproject area, most agricultural and other livelihood activities are very similar for ethnic minorities and ethnic Han people.

2.5.4 Territory

37. Land usufruct is specified in a contract between the village and farmers for a period of thirty-years. Land allocations were calculated based on the number of people in the household, and all of whom are listed on the contract for land usufructs. Error!

2.5.8 Socio-economic Profile of the Ethnic Minority in SBA

45. The ethnic minority people, estimated to be 16,500 persons in SBA, which is a part of urban area in Guiyang Municipal, are living among the Han people with no ethnic identities. In general, the socio-economic conditions of the ethnic minorities in SBA are the same as that of other Han people in the area, which is supported by the social survey results among sampled households. There are no difference of income and expenditure, jobless rate, occupation and education between the Han and ethnic minority people among the sampled households. For example, the annual average expenditure per capita of sampled ethnic minority group is CNY6,384, almost the same as the average of sampled households. For the detailed information of occupation and education of the ethnic minority please refer to Table 11. Therefore, the ethnic minority people will be benefited equally from the improved water supply, and no special measures will be provided for them.

3. SUBPROJECT IMPACTS ON ETHNIC MINORITIES

3.1 General

46. Table 10 gives an overview the major impacts from the project. Most of the negative impacts will be imposed to the people in SAA, and minor negative impacts on SBA.

3.2 Potential Negative Impacts of the Subproject

47. During the focus group discussions held in the selected communities, different groups of individuals identified a range of potential negative impacts to be brought by the proposed subproject based on their own interests. The identified major negative impacts by the subproject are from the land acquisition, demolition of houses and relocation of population.

48. In SAA, the impacts of the subproject are from the construction of dam and water plant, as well as the flooding area by the reservoir. As shown in Table 11, the construction of the subproject will acquire a total of 3,128.7 mu (208.6 ha) land areas. About 30% are farmland, and most of them are paddy land and dry farmland. Approximately 7.9 ha of land will be occupied temporarily during construction, among which, 30% are farmland. The permanent land acquisition will affect 1,311 individuals from 11 villages.

49. Along with the land loss, 53 households will lose their houses and structures, totaling 12,759 sq m,of which, 2 shops will be affected. The Jinlonggu Tourist Spot will be entirely flooded, and Yudongxia Scenery Spot partially affected.

50. In SBA, some temporary and permanent land acquisition will occur due to the pipe network rehabilitation, but no homes will be displaced. There will be a total of 80.9 mu affected by land acquisition; of which, permanent land use is 69.3 mu and temporary land use of 11.6 mu. The category of land occupied would be the paddy field and upland.

3.3 Potential Positive Impacts of the Subproject

51. Based on discussions with various stakeholders, it seems that the following economic impacts could be expected from the subproject.

3.3.1 Potential Positive Impacts in SAA

52. During the construction, the project will provide temporary employment opportunities for the local people, and other business opportunities such as provision of food and accommodation services and local material such as crushed stone and sand. This will create opportunities for some minority people engaging in the excavation and transportation activities.

3.3.2 Potential Positive Impacts in SBA

53. The planned daily water provision of 100,000 m3 by the Water Plant will assure better life for the urban residents totaling 129,000 presently and 182,000 in 2020.

54. Due to the accelerating economic development and fast expansion of urban residents in the subproject area, daily shortage of water supply amounts to 23,500 m3. The water shortage is becoming the bottle-neck constraining the economic development in the subproject area. Construction of the subproject will play an important role for promoting the economy in the area, and further improving the water supply condition in GM.

4. PARTICIPATION PROCESS AND RESULTS

4.1 Consultation during subproject preparation

55. The methods for public participation and consultation included key informant interviews, participatory focus group discussions, and collection and analysis of secondary data. Most of consultation activities during the subproject preparation are focused on SAA, with more attention given to the two severely affected villages of Miao and Buyei respectively. Only one large public consultation activity was held in SBA for the operation of proposed water treatment plant on June 2, 2006 for the people who will be benefited from the urban water supply.

56. Listed in Error! Reference source not found.Table 12 with detailed records shown in the Annex 1 are the public consultation activities carried out at the site, including a general roundtable discussion about the project and a meeting focused on the Ganjing Miao Autonomous Village in April and a meeting in Dayan Bouyei Autonomous Village in May. In addition to this information, consultation has occurred more informally as part of field walkthroughs for project design, preparation of resettlement action plan, environmental impact assessment, and other activities.

4.2 Aspirations, needs and preferred options

57. For the EMDP, the overall conclusion from public consultation is that the needs and aspirations of ethnic minorities in the project area are very similar to those of their Han neighbors.

58. In SAA, the locals want to keep on the existing living and production tradition. They want to reconstruct their houses by themselves within the village whether planned by the village or moving backwards. They want lump sum compensation for their existing houses prior to the demolishment. They also want to restore the infrastructure within the village to be damaged by the project for benefit of daily life and production, and show their full interest in their preferred options of resettlement and income restoration strategy. However, they are willing to provide the land for construction of the project.

59. In SBA, the survey results indicate that 177 of 200 interviewees thought the government should take action on the water supply with 81 responses of ‘Serious need for action’. It is suggested that their urgent need is to improve the water supply conditions in the urban area. They want to be fully included in project activities and are similarly interested in benefiting from in the water supplied by the Water Plant and have similar views about water pricing.

63. The construction contractor(s) should conduct medical checks of the communicable disease situation among the construction personnel before they enter the site, which should be documented. Construction personnel should receive sampling health examination regularly and annually at construction stage, the number of which is reached by 10% of the number of persons investigated and put on file. Each construction contractor should clearly appoint the responsible person for sanitation & epidemic prevention who are supposed to manage according to the epidemic situation control and report system promulgated by local disease control authority, and to accept the supervision by sanitation and disease control authorities. Medicines for the treatment of common communicable diseases and for preventing communicable diseases should be provided up in contractor’s camps to protect public health. Measures for public health education and for prevention, diagnosis and treatment of communicable diseases, including HIV/AIDS will be carried out by the relevant communicable disease control center supported by the contractors.

Water Source Protection in Reservoir Area

64. The project will carry out measures to prevent the potential eutrophication because of pollution from residues in the reservoir sites and runoff form area sources in catchment area. The measures include cleaning of reservoir sites before flooding, laying an embargo on direct discharge of sanitary wastewater from peasant households surrounding the reservoir area into the reservoir area with provision of 1 septic tank for each community and 1 bio-gas disgester for each household, control upstream agricultural non-point source pollution an domestic wastewater and enhance soil conservation, publicizing water source protection, and enhance education and guidance to farmers on agricultural non-point source pollution

65. To protect the water source from pollution of chemical fertilizer and pesticide used for agricultural production surrounding the reservoir area, close cooperation will be made by PMO with the agricultural sectors to train the local people, including ethnic minority people, on the reduction of using chemical fertilizer and pesticide, and provide alternatives for them by readjusting the farming pattern, so to have no reduction of agricultural output and to have no impact on their income and livelihood.

66. The other mitigation measures include provision of garbage bins for collection of solid waste, timely clean-up and transportation in covered containers to Guiyang sanitary landfill site during construction and rehabilitation of temporary occupied farmland as soon as possible after construction.

5.2 Measures to ensure project benefits will accrue to ethnic minority peoples

67. The engineering is a new construction project consisting of three components: (1) dam construction, (2) water plant construction, and (3) establishing raw water delivery pipeline, new pipe network and rehabilitation of existing old pipe network for water supply.

Yudongxia EMDP S-18 5/4/2007 Guiyang Integrated Water Resources Management Project Black & Veatch (Asia) Ltd

For convenience of local people’s participation in construction, it is planned that the engineering works will be arranged in 5 separate packages to be procured publicly.

68. Arrangement of circulating information of recruiting workers among the affected villages prior to the subproject construction, and liaison between the contractor(s) and the village committee(s) for information of labor requirement during the construction will be made to encourage the local people, including ethnic minority, to participate in the subproject construction. Under the same conditions, priorities of the temporary employment will be given to the ethnic minority people.

5.3 Measures to strengthen social, legal, and technical capabilities of government institutions to address ethnic minority peoples issues

69. The Guiyang Water Resources Bureau will be the Implementing Agency for this subproject, which will be supported by the related county and township level officials. An interagency task force to carry out field activities will include staff from the Bureau of Ethnic Minority and Religious Affairs.

70. Some relevant capacity already exists in the Bureau of the Ethnic Minorities and Religious Affairs (BEMA) at the Municipal, County and Township levels. They will be involved in planning and implementation project activities, including coordination of relevant activities done using their own resources. The BEMAs in Wudang and Longli have staff of 6 and 7 persons, respectively. There is one autonomous ethnic minority government in the project area at the county level, for Longli County.

71. Training will be provided to develop capacity for all aspects of project implementation, including EA/IA’s capacity on social development to ensure full participation of ethnic minorities in the project and equitable treatment of those affected by land acquisition. The Guiyang Municipal Bureau of Ethnic Minority and Religious Affairs will provide oversight and support.

In daily communication among local Miao People, Han(local dialect of Chinese)language is normally used, while Miao Language is mainly used in communication by elder Miao people or on some intimate or particular occasions. Most local Miao people can speak Han(local dialect of Chinese)language, while some teenagers can not speak Miao Language(most Miao people over 20 can speak Miao language). For the Miao People, Miao Language can facilitate internal communication among themselves. (2) In daily life, local Miao people wear clothes similar to the Han People. Folk costumes are worn on important holidays or celebrations as a remainder of their ethnicity. (3) Local Miao People share similar holidays and celebrations with Miao People in other parts of Guizhou, mainly including celebrations such as April 8th, March 3rd and June 6th. On these holidays, activities such as singing and dancing are organized for celebration. However, these activities are on declining now. (4) In terms of marriage, Miao People choose their spouses freely without respect to ethnicity. (5) Most houses of local Miao People are built of a wood-and-tile structure while newly-built houses mainly of brick-and-concrete or brick-and-wood structure. Local Miao People favor a communal life, which will facilitate exchange and communication among themselves, they do not have the habit of migration. (6) Without a school in the village, children have to go to the neighboring village for schooling. Boys and girls share equal opportunity in education. And local villagers are aware of the preferential policy given by the authority to ethnic minorities in the entrance exam to college. (7) It is believed by the participants that there does not exist hierarchical institution within the Miao people. As there does not exist a Shaikh, village cadres elected by the villagers are influential and enjoy prestige in organizing relevant activities. (8) It is agreed on by the participants that the major impact by the project is land acquisition and resettlement. As for the mitigation measure, lump sum compensation is expected and paid directly to affected households according to relevant government regulations, and resettlement location selected by the affected households with a convenient infrastructure as road, water, electricity, etc. (House construction cost shall be paid directly to the affected households). (9) It is expected that the households affected by land acquisition can be resettled to another location within the village. In land acquisition and resettlement due to project construction, compensation for land loss shall be made according to relevant regulations without being siphoned off. Where employment opportunities exist, priority shall be given to the affected people by resettlement. (10) For the Miao People, men and women share housework and farm work with each other, with women mainly responsible for housework and men mainly responsible for heavy farming activities. Having similar incomes, men and women enjoy equal status in family financial affairs, with women paying more attention to family expenditure. (11) Only a few local Miao people go outside of the village as migrant workers, most of them are young adults in non-farming seasons. (12) It is agreed by the participants that the village is relatively poor compared with neighboring Miao Villages while almost the same compared with neighboring Han Villages. Paddy rice, corn, fruits and vegetables are the major crops planted in the farmland. Except for income from agriculture, there are not any other economic activities or income sources. (13) Local people have attended training programs in fruit tree plantation. They expressed their expectation of receiving similar technical training in plantation in the future. (14) It is accepted that the villagers can express their grievance collectively to the authority, and

Yudongxia EMDP 29 5/4/2007 Guiyang Integrated Water Resources Management Project Black & Veatch

more information disclosure is expected for land acquisition and resettlement. (15) The average annual net income per capita of the locals is over CNY 2,000, with some of 5-10 thousands. (16) It is expected that the construction and resettlement can be combined with the implementation of New Countryside Program (promoted by the central government). (17) There do not exist any particular habits or taboos in the area. (18) Assistance is expected from government and relevant authorities on transportation, micro-credit, technical training, construction of biogas generating pit, etc. (19) It is expected that a sewage discharge ditch and water collecting and sedimentation pools are expected for environment protection. Summary：

With relatively a high level of similarity with Han people, local Miao people share similar lifestyle and production method with the Han people and do not have any particular taboos or customs. With respect to the project, local ethnic minorities pay more attention to issues such as land acquisition, resettlement, and compensation standard among others and expect assistance from government in technical training and other aspects.

Title Group Discussion on Yudongxia Reservoir Construction by of Bouyei group Time From 9:30 to 10:40 am on May 30th, 206 Venue Xiaoyan Sub-village, Dayan Village Xingshi Town Longli County Participating Wudang District Water Resource Bureau, Longli County Xingshi Town government agency Villager participants 19 villagers, of which, 5 female, and 17 ethnic minorities (with participant list attached). PPTA participants Xu Yingxin, Luo Zheng, Nie Danping PMO participant Xu Ping, Kong Lingkun Recorder Luo Zheng The 1st Group: (1) The Buyi Nationality has its own language (which is noted down through Chinese spelling) but without written words. The dominant language they used for communications is Chinese (with local accent), and the Buyi language is used among older people or in some special cases among them when mixed with other people. All most all local people can speak Chinese (with local accent), and all can speak Buyi language. (2) The older women in the village, mainly around 50, keep wearing clothing of Bouyei style, while the men usually do not; only a few elder men wear simple Buyi clothing. (3) There is little difference in the daily life and production between the Buyi minority and Han Nationality, no taboos, but some special holidays, such as on April 8th. (4) The housing of Bouyei is almost the same as that of Han. (5) After the development of tourism, the village is relatively richer than the neighboring villages. (6) On marriage, men and women of Bouyei are equal in choosing a spouse, usually within the Bouyei, but it becomes more and more popular marrying with people from other nationalities. (7) There is an elementary school in the village, while there is a junior high school in the town. Usually the children in the village finish their education in junior high school. (8) The men earn a larger part of family income; especially those working as migrant workers during non-farming seasons. In farming activities, the heavy jobs, such as plowing, are normally carried out by men, while women do the activities, as weeding, do not require as much energy. (9) The family expenditure is usually managed by women, especially for daily expenditure, but usually through discussion. (10) The main crops are rice, corn and rapeseed, etc., but with a recent increase in vegetable and fruit tree planting. (11) Besides planting and animal breeding, other incomes mainly come from migrant workers. (12) The Buyi minority has no migrating habit, they are accustomed to gregarious living in a settled area. (13) If resettlement is required, they want to be resettled within the village.

Yudongxia EMDP 30 5/4/2007 Guiyang Integrated Water Resources Management Project Black & Veatch

(14) The residents are accustomed to wooden houses, but there is a trend of building structure of concrete and brick for safety, such as less opportunity for catching fire. They prefer housing of concrete and brick rather than wood. (15) Better infrastructure such as water, power supply and access road, etc, are expected for selecting the locations for resettlement. (16) In the aspect of land loss, the preference of the local people is the lump-sum compensation and multiple choices of income restoration as agricultural production on the remaining farmland and employment on the project or migrant work. They also expressed their worries about income in the future due to land loss. (17) After the land loss, restructuring the crop pattern can be made by planting vegetables and fruit trees so as to increase their income. (18) The local government held some training programs, such as planting and health care training for women, especially those in childbearing ages. The local people express their welcomes of such training programs, especially on planting and animal breeding. (19) The inconvenience of transportation due to flooding of the reservoir should be solved to facilitate the daily life and production of the local people. (20) If the Temple of the Earth God and other facilities are flooded, they should be relocated to another location. There are no other irremovable structures or facilities due to local customs and habits. (21) There are no Shaikh or other minority leaders, instead of village head and village secretary for village management. Conclusion:

There is little difference in the aspects of production and living between Buyi Minority and Han Nationality. The Bouyi people are quite similar with Han people. Even with their own language, communication among Bouyei people is mainly through Chinese. Reasonable compensation and resettlement are expected in accordance with laws of PRC, rules and related regulations of local government for the effected people due to land and/or assets loss. There are no specific suggestions, opinions and requirements proposed during the consultation concerning the ethnic minority development.

The 2nd Round of Public Participation and Consultation ( Urban Water Supply) Title The 2nd Public Participation and Consultation on Yudongxia Reservoir Construction (Urban Water Supply) Time From 3:00 to 5:10 pm on June 2nd, 2006 Venue Wudang District Water Resource Bureau Participants 20, of which 5 women (with participant list attached). PPTA Miss Xu Yingxin, Mr. Luo Zheng, and Miss Nie Danping PMO Mr. Kong Lingkun Recorder Mr. Luo Zheng No. Description 1 Introducing the topics of the consultation by Mr. Zhao Huaqing, the deputy director of Wudang District Water Resource Bureau. 2 Brief introduction of the project by Mr. Zhang Chunguang, staff from Guizhou Water Conservancy and Electricity Survey and Design Institute (GZDI) 3 Brief introduction of land acquisition and Resettlement by Mr. Yao Jun, staff from GZDI 4 Explanation of the purpose and meaning of public consultation by Miss Xu Yingxin 5 Public speech (1) What is the operational mechanism of the Water Plant? What’s the relationship between Wudang Water Supply Co and the factory? Restructure or incorporation or an independent agency? What are the components of the water price? It’s good to build a Water Plant, and we will support its construction, but the environment protection and safety of water supply should be considered (from Wanjiang electromechanical enterprise) (2) Zhang Chunguang from GZDI gave an explanation in regard to water price components. (3) Reform of the management system is under consideration for this project. Several proposals of the construction and management system have been made, but not decided yet (answered by representatives from the Water Resource Bureau). (4) Is construction of the Reservoir and Water Plant under the same project? What consideration have you given to the construction sequence? Are there any basic farming paddy fields to be affected? Or any resettlement? Any facilities to be flooded? What kind of impacts will be on the scenic spots and the tourism? What’s the role of the flood control by the reservoir? Fully consideration must be given to these questions (from the Land and Resources authorities). (5) Explanations on the above questions were given by Mr. Yao Jun and Mr. Zhang Chunguang from GZDI. (6) The public believes that the related departments and designing agencies have the capacity to give good consideration on the technical problems. As a resident in GM, more attention should be given to the water quality, quantity, price and service. Wudang District Government has listed this project as one of the key construction projects, all related departments will give great support to it, and optimization shall be given to the design (from the Department of Development and Reform). (7) The results of water quality monitoring indicate that the present water quality is relatively good. More efforts will be given in the future on water quality monitoring, and the technology of water treatment in the factory will be designed in accordance with related standards and technical specifications (answered from the design agency). (8) At present, as the hardness of local water is relatively high, will the hardness of water supplied from the new-built factory be lower than present original water. The resident hope

Yudongxia EMDP 33 5/4/2007 Guiyang Integrated Water Resources Management Project Black & Veatch

the water quality will is be good assured (from urban residents). (9) Each enterprise has different requirement on the water quality, especially the pharmaceutical plants, which have special requirement on the water quality, and request the provision of the monitoring results of water quality. The present monitoring results show that the water hardness of Yudongxia Reservoir is lower than that of presently used tap water. Full analysis of balance of water supply in the future and direction should be made. Concerning the balance of water supply, the construction of Yudongxia Reservoir is warmly supported by the locals. If supplying water to GM, fully consideration shall be made on reconstruction of the existing water pipe and its network, or construction of a new water supply system. Whether or when implementing the project of constructing the Water Plant, consideration should be given on the present practice of water supply. One of the reasons restraining from the project implementation might be the water price in the future. The size of the water factory cannot be built so large that exceed the requirement of water usage in foreseen future. We have lessons learned from Wudang Yunjin Water Plant that the Water Factory is not owned by the Water Company, which belongs to another agency, so many problems were existing in the management, and resolved after the water factory incorporated into the Water Company. Therefore, consideration of project construction and management shall be made at the stage of design under the same agency, and operation and management shall be automatically programmed. It is suggested that Water Company planning, constructing and managing the Water Plant, but separating the Water Plant from the Reservoir, and the factory buying water from the Reservoir (from the Water Company). (10) Full analysis should be made on selection of location for the factory and the elevated water tank. Have it even been considered dividing the project and construction in different stages, as the project investment is too large? The issues as the size of reservoir scale and water factory, water supply for rural and urban area, and irrigation for agricultural production, etc, should be considered together. The technology of water treatment should be economical, reasonable, safe and feasible (from Water Conservancy Academy). (11) Our company is the one of the biggest user, with monthly water consumption over 100,000 tons, and the consumption is not expected have a great increase within 5 years. It is necessary to build the reservoir and Water Plant. Assurance measures shall be taken to guarantee the water quality not less than that of present usage, and the demand of water supply in accordance with related requirement set forth before the construction. Consideration shall be given to the construction of water pipe and its supportive network. The construction and operating agency should meet the users’ requirements for water supply (from enterprise). (12) Wudang Water Company is expected to be one of the construction and management agencies. Full consideration shall be given to the operational mechanism so that to satisfy the requirements of the users concerning the issues in future as water quantity, quality and price etc (from enterprise). (13) The residents are more concerned with the water quantity, quality and its pressure. The water consumption will increase along with the development of the economy, thus possible decrease of pressure should be fully considered due to the increase of water usage. Stage- construction of water pipe and its network shall be considered, and such issue shall be coordinated with the Water Company (from resident representative). (14) The project is greatly supported by the local government, but the land acquisition and resettlement should be carried out complying with the laws of PRC, rules and related regulations of the local governments, with no harm to the interest of the farmers (representatives from Dongfeng Town Government).
