I. INTRODUCTION

A. Background

1. The Government of Madhya Pradesh (GOMP), with a sector project loan funding from Asian Development Bank (ADB), has proposed to implement Madhya Pradesh Urban Services Improvement Project (MPUSIP), herein referred as ‘the Project’. Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company Limited (MPUDC) shall be the Implementing Agency (IA) and the State Urban Development and Environment Department (UDED) shall be the Executing Agency (EA) for the Project. A project management unit (PMU) created under MPUDC is implementing the MPUSIP.

2. The Resettlement Framework for MPUSIP outlines the objectives, policy principles and procedures for land acquisition, if any, compensation and other assistance measures for Displaced Persons1 /Affected Persons, if any. This framework reflects the borrower’s law on the Right to Fair Compensation and Transparency in Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Act 2013, State Government policies, ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009 and other social safeguard guidelines. A detailed description of compensation measures and assistance is provided in the entitlement matrix.

3. An entitlement matrix, consistent with the existing norms and guidelines of the country and the state government, and ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement has been prepared to cover losses identified in this Project. The matrix recognizes that the lack of title/customary rights recognized under law will not be a bar to entitlement and has special provisions for non-titled persons. The eligibility for compensation will be determined through a cut-off date. People moving into the subproject area after the cut-off date will not be entitled to compensation or other assistance.

4. Madhya Pradesh Urban Services Improvement Program (MPUSIP) proposed to be funded by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) envisages provision of sustainable water services to 128 towns in the State; out of which provision, of sewerage and storm water management services is proposed in some towns. The State Urban Development and Environment Department is the Executing Agency while the Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC) Limited is the implementing agency for the Project.

B. Project Description

5. MPUSIP’s physical components include (a) improvements to water in 69 project towns, and (b) sewage and storm water collection and treatment services proposed in four (4) identified towns namely Saikheda, Sanawad, Anjad and Badwaha under Phase I while in Phase II – water supply scheme in 59 subproject towns and sewage collection and treatment services proposed in eight towns namely Sanchi, Dhamnod, Mandsaur, Nagda, Jabalpur (part-II), Maihar, Kahjuraho and Rajnagar. The project also includes an institutional strengthening component and a project management and administrative support component. The objective of the proposed improvements in subproject town is to achieve safe and sustainable water services both in terms of services to customers, cost recovery and conservation of precious water resources. The project

1 In the context of involuntary resettlement, displaced persons are those who are physically displaced (relocation, loss of residential land, or loss of shelter) and/or economically displaced (loss of land, assets, access to assets, income sources, or means of livelihoods) as a result of (i) involuntary acquisition of land, or (ii) involuntary restrictions on land use or on access to legally designated parks and protected areas. It covers them whether such losses and involuntary restrictions are full or partial, permanent or temporary

1 proposals envisage providing 100% coverage of population with continuous, pressurized and safe drinking water services and achieving progressively increasing cost recovery by expanding the coverage and increasing operating efficiency. The main objectives of the project are as follows:

(i) Supplying pure drinking water; (ii) Promote sustainable measures to increase potable water supply to the population; (iii) Water supply through future sustainable source developments; (iv) Water supply through improvements of safe yield of existing water sources; (v) Water supply through improvements to water treatment works; (vi) Drinking water supply contributes towards a sustainable regional development; (vii) To improve the current state of the water cycle of subproject through improvements in the separate components of the water supply system in investment program.

C. Scope of the Report

6. This draft land acquisition and involuntary resettlement due diligence report (DDR) is prepared for the proposed water supply augmentation scheme for town Nemawar located in Dewas district. The proposed water source is Narmada river. There is another town namely Khategaon for water supply scheme under same package, and the proposed source is also Narmada river. Therefore, it is decided to construct a common intake well for Nemawar and Khategaon WSS while remaining components of both the towns will be separated. Water treatment plant (WTP), storage reservoir, transmission mains and distribution system are proposed for Nemawar WSS. The proposed subproject will provide metered water supply for domestic, institutional and commercial users, including metered connections to each household in the town. All municipal wards of the town will be covered under the project. As per Census of India – 2011, the total population of Nemawar town is 7305. The projected population for the design year 2048 is 14015.

7. A due diligence process was conducted to examine the land acquisition and resettlement issues in detail, in line with ADB SPS 2009. This report describes the findings and provides copies of relevant documents, resolutions, minutes of meetings and photographs. This land acquisition and resettlement due diligence report needs to be read along with the Resettlement Framework prepared for MPUSIP.

8. Involuntary resettlement impacts will be reconfirmed after completion of detailed engineering design and detailed measurement surveys (DMS) which will be conducted by Design Build and Operate (DBO) Contractor before initiation of civil works during implementation2. The Executing Agency will be responsible for submission of the updated social safeguard document to ADB for No Objection. The final involuntary resettlement DDR will be reviewed and disclosed on the websites of Urban Local Body (ULB), MPUDC and ADB. No construction work will commence before the updated social safeguard document for the package is reviewed and approved by ADB and compensation to affected persons is completed, if any. The Implementing Agency is responsible in handing over the project land/site to the contractor which should be free from all encumbrances.

2 Detailed measurement survey will be jointly conducted by safeguards personnel of PIU, consultants and contractors prior to implementation at each site/stretch of alignment. Report (Involuntary Resettlement Due Diligence Report / Resettlement Plan for different sites/stretches will be prepared and submitted to ADB for approval; prior payment of compensation to permanent and/or temporarily impacted persons is mandatory before start of civil work at each site/alignment stretch. Social safeguards document for the package will be updated by PMC in coordination with DBO contractor.

II. POLICY FRAMEWORK, AND ENTITLEMENTS

9. The Resettlement Framework prepared for MPUSIP sets out the objectives, principles, eligibility criteria and entitlements of the Affected persons (APs), based on ADB SPS 2009 and LARR 2013 as well as national and state laws for protection of street vendors. Until recently, all activities related to rehabilitation and resettlement in the State of Madhya Pradesh have been based on the Madhya Pradesh Resettlement and Rehabilitation Policy, 2002 (MPRR) and National Rehabilitation and Resettlement Policy, 2007 (NRRP-2007). Government of Madhya Pradesh (GOMP) adopted LARR 2013 on 3rd October, 2014 with some specifications for operationalizing its implementation in the state. Details of policies are in the resettlement framework for MPUSIP.

III. SUBPROJECT DESCRIPTION

A. Description about subproject town

10. Nemawar is an important religious town of Dewas District in the State of Madhya Pradesh. It is located in the northern bank of the Narmada River. This town is situated on the Malwa plateau in the west-central part of Madhya Pradesh. It is located at 220 30’0’’ N latitude and 760 58’0’’ E longitude. The River Narmada acts as a significant element of the town as it acts as a physical barrier, restricting the town's growth towards its south. The year of establishment of Nagar Parishad Nemawar is 2015. But the population of town was 5975 (Nemawar rural cluster only) based on census of India 2011. The area of the town is spread over in 755.00 Ha (7.55 Sq Kms). Administrative boundary of town is divided into 15 wards. Town is situated at average elevation of 276 m from Mean Sea Level. Population of town Nemawar is 7305 and is estimated to have increased to 8355 by year 2018. Nemawar is not connected with rail network but the nearest railway station is Harda which is around 15 km from the town. Nemawar is situated along NH-59A which connects other important towns. Although, distance by road from Nemawar to Bhopal - 135 kms, Nemawar to Indore - 133 kms Nemawar to Dewas - 126 kms only.

B. Existing Water Supply

11. Water supply is one of the most critical and important basic urban services. As water is a scarce commodity and the study area has limited water aquifers within its boundary, therefore water supply is a crucial urban service that needs special attention. In town Nemawar the ground water recharge is very limited. Surface water supplied from Narmada River, Narrula pond and ground water supplied from hand pumps are the three sources of water supply in town.

12. The first water supply scheme in the town was executed by Public Health Engineering Department (PHED) in 1981. Under this scheme, a tube well was constructed and a few kilometers of distribution pipelines were laid. Now, the pipelines are in bad condition due to their age. From Nemawar, approximately 30 MLD treated water is pumped to Dewas Industrial area. For this, an Intake well in Narmada and water treatment plant has been constructed. Presently Welspun Company runs the plant. However, due to problems with the pipe line, the plant is unable to function properly. Earlier they were giving some water to town Nemawar but now the supply has been stopped. Presently, hand pumps are the main source of drinking water supply. Untreated water from Narmada River is also supplied. The per capita water supply per day is about 25 LPCD. This supply accounts for only 0.20 MLD of daily water supply. Details of existing water supply are as follows:

Particulars Detail No. 1 Number of Intake well None 2 Number of Tube wells None 3 Number of Hand pumps 42 (only 37 are operational) 4 Number of tankers None 5 Number of OHT None 6 Number of WTP None 7 Number of Sump None 8 Number of Pump 20 HP at Narmada River

9 Per Capita Supply 25 LPCD

Source: Nagar Parishad Nemawar

13. In the present scenario, water is supplied directly from river Narmada without treatment. There is no facility provided in the town for storage of water. Nemawar Nagar Parishad supplies approximately 0.20 MLD of water per day. The duration and frequency of water supply is thirty minutes per day. The per capita supply of water is 25 LPCD.

14. Presently, the total number of house service connection is 500 and commercial connection is 4.

C. Components of Proposed Water Supply Scheme

15. The primary objectives of the proposed water supply subproject are:

(i) To improve service for safe and sustainable water services both in terms of services to residents and cost recovery; (ii) To conserve water resources. The project envisages providing 100 percent coverage of population with continuous, pressurized and safe drinking water services and achieving progressively increase cost recovery by expanding the coverage and increasing operating efficiency; (iii) To consider a per capita supply at 135 LPCD.

16. Proposed components: As Nemawar is inhabited in the northern side of the Narmada river which is considered as a perennial river; no storage structure will be required. The proposed components are as follows:

(i) Intake well: In the bank of Narmada River, there is proposed R.C.C. intake well of 5M diameter and 25M height to collect and lift water up to treatment works for both Nemawar and Khategaon towns. The intake well required an area of 120 m2 and the identified land is owned by the Water Resource Department (WRD). (ii) Raw Water Rising Main (RWRM): The proposed raw water rising main is 1900 M long 200 mm dia. DI K9 from proposed Intake well to proposed WTP. (iii) Raw Water Pump: Two vertical turbine type pump with 100% as standby is proposed. The discharge of each pump is 11.49 LPS and head is 19.87 meter at intermediate stage year 2033. The rating of each pump is 3.50 KW.

(iv) Water Treatment Plant (WTP): A WTP for the town Nemawar with a capacity of 2.43MLD considering 22 hours of pumping has been proposed for the ultimate year of 2048. Identified site for WTP is located under ward number 1 along Sarasadi road. (v) Overhead Tank (OHT) and Ground Storage Reservoir (GSR): OHT with a capacity of 100KL and GSR with a capacity of 500KL are proposed. (vi) Clear Water Feeder Main (CWFM): DI K-9 class pipe diameter of 150mm and 200mm of length 6,765M and 944M respectively from WTP to reservoirs (OHT and GSR) with a total length of 7,709M. (vii) Distribution Network: Nagar Parishad-Nemawar has been divided into two zones. Total length of the proposed network is around 19,440M of diameter 110 mm to 250 mm HDPE PN 10 pipe. The details of the distribution network is as follows:

IV. FIELD WORK AND PUBLIC CONSULTATION

19. This IR DDR is prepared in consultation with stakeholders including local residents, beneficiaries/consumer, and Urban Local Body (ULB) officials/representatives. Informal consultations and focus group discussions (FGDs) were conducted to seek feedback from local people and other important stakeholders on the proposed development interventions, perceived impacts and mitigation measures and their participation.

A. Outline of Fieldwork

20. During the site visit, a field inspection of proposed subproject facility locations and pipeline alignments that had been identified was undertaken. These included field visit to the identified sites and alignments and stakeholder consultations. The entire land requirement for the proposed subproject component will be fulfilled by government lands. The details of selected lands for subproject components are given in the Appendix-1.

B. Field Work Report

21. The concerned ULB officials, public representatives, stakeholders and prominent residents of both subproject towns have convened to collect data and information for the proposed subproject, and various discussions/meetings were held (refer to Appendix 2).

(i) During the meeting and discussion, the present situation of water supply in the town and the requirement of the stakeholders were assessed. Based on present water supply arrangements and identified gaps, the proposed scheme is designed. (ii) With the ULB authorities, all the possible water supply sources were visited and locations for all other the components of water supply scheme identified. (iii) All the options of possible water supply source, its dependability, quality assurance of source available and the distance from the town were studied. (iv) Water from the selected source was collected and tested from the Laboratory of Bhopal Municipal Corporation Laboratory, Bhopal. Also test report is obtained for the purpose of detailed design. (v) Water security is ensured by seeking No Objection for drawl of water from the concerned department like WRD etc. such that best-chosen water source is made available to ULB for the purpose of water supply scheme. (vi) Revenue authorities were contacted to ensure the land transfer to ULB for WTP, OHT and GSR. (vii) After getting all the required data for the preparation of DPR, the survey team was mobilized for the survey work, focusing on road survey for the water supply distribution system.

C. Public Consultation

22. Extensive consultations were undertaken with key stakeholders in line with ADB's requirements pertaining to environment and social considerations. Focus group discussion (FGD) was also conducted at nearby locations of the proposed intake well, WTP and OHT sites. The the FGD was participated by various stakeholders such as such as personnel involved in infrastructure like water, waste water and allied services, and staff and engoneers of Local Body, WRD, PWD, National Highways, and District Administration. Various issues likely to be encountered during and after construction and mitigation measures to address the same were identified and discussed during the FGD. (refer to Appendix 2). The following were the outcomes of consultations:

(i) The consultations helped identify the felt needs /concerns and apprehensions of the communities related to the project and priorities of concerned stakeholders. (ii) Consultations revealed that people are aware of the problems of the existing water supply system in the town and are willing to cooperate in the proposed project. (iii) Consultations with the key stakeholders revealed that existing water supply system is in a poor condition, so improvement is required and local inhabitant will definitely and fully accept the project. (iv) The ULB Officials have apprehensions regarding the project whether it will be a financial burden to the Nagar Parishad. The Nagar Parishad does not have capacity or resource to be party in sharing the loan repayment.

23. The major stakeholders targeted during consultations are stated below. (For the summary of the stakeholder consultations, refer to Table 1. While for the photographs of the consultations and list of participants, refer to Appendix 2.)

V. LAND AVAILABILITY AND INVOLUNTARY RESETTLEMENT IMPACTS

26. 24. In line with ADB’s requirements pertaining to environment and social safeguard safeguards, the scope of land availability has been worked out by the Nagar Parishad Nemawar and local revenue department. The government land identified for proposed subproject components is found appropriate both from technical and social safeguards perspective and is free of all encumbrances. No private land acquisition or involuntary resettlement impacts are anticipated in any of the identified site for proposed civil works under WSS town Nemawar. Land identified for subproject components is government land which is reported vacant, unused, without any settlement / squatter / cultivation or other use. A letter has been obtained from chief municipal officer certifying that all site/land for proposed subproject facilities is government owned land, refer to Appendix 5.25. Narmada river is the only surface source of water which can be considered as a dependable source to fulfil the present and future demand of the subproject town Nemawar. River Narmada is perennial river; therefore, no storage structure is required and no downstream impact is anticipated. Intake well cum pump house, common for Nemawar and Khategaon town, is proposed on the right bank of Narmada river. Identified land for proposed Intake well site belongs to Water Resource Department (WRD). Land is without any settlement/ squatter /cultivation or other use. There is proposed R.C.C. intake well of 5M diameter and 25M height to collect and lift water up to treatment works for both Nemawar and khategaon towns.

27. Raw water rising main (RWRM) of ductile iron pipe of K9 class of 1900 M length and 200 mm dia is proposed for transmission of water from Intake well to water treatment plant. The pipes will be laid within the right of way of (ROW) of earthen road of revenue department and paved road of Public Works Department (PWD) and Nagar Parishad Nemawar. The pipes will not cross any private land throughout the alignment. No Objection certificate (NOC) from these departments will be required to lay pipeline.

28. The identified land for WTP (2.43 MLD) is located near Adibasi boys’ hostel in ward number 1 which is under possession of revenue department for many years and was not acquired in anticipation of ADB funded MPUSIP, as revealed through discussion with the officials of revenue department during visit on 29th April 2016. This is vacant land free from any encroachment/any type of cultivation or not used for other purposes. The process of land transfer to ULB is under process. Although, 76 KL capacity of clear water sump well is also proposed within the premises of proposed WTP for storing clear water after treatment from WTP.

29. The proposed clear water feeder main of total length of 7709 M is also proposed to be laid from WTP to OHT and GSR along existing road ROW which belongs to Nagar Parishad - Nemawar. On the basis of field observations, proposed alignment of CWFM will not cross any private land along the alignments, refer to Appendix 6.

30. One OHT of 100 KL capacity is proposed under ward number 1 and the land in possession of Revenue Department. One Ground Service Reservoir (GSR) of 500 KL capacity is proposed under WSS town Nemawar. This GSR is being proposed at old defunct GSR which is located near Bishnoi Samaj Dharamshala and the site belongs to revenue department but under possession of Nagar Parishad-Nemawar. This identified site for GSR comes under the corridor of impact (COI) of State Archeological Monument namely Siddheshwar Temple under Archeological Survey of India. NOC is to be obtained from Archeological Survey of India (ASI). It is pertinent to mention that the proposed land is vacant and under possession of Nagar Parishad-Nemawar.

31. New distribution network includes laying of 19440m pipeline. These pipelines are proposed to be laid underground within the existing public roads belonging to Nagar Parishad road ROW. Proposed pipe diameters to be laid range between 110 mm to 355 mm depending on the width of the roads, for details refer to Table 2. Distribution lines are proposed on one sides/centre of the road depending up on availability of space where road widths are small.

32. Pipe laying activity on roads in the most congested market areas and densely built-up areas has been carefully planned to avoid involuntary resettlement impacts including temporary economic impacts to hawkers, shops and businesses.

33. Measures will be taken to minimize excavation, disturbance to pedestrians and traffic and avoid income loss to businesses, while minimizing road reconstruction costs. Temporary impacts to traffic/access to shops and residences due to excavation of trenches for pipe laying are possible during construction; however, these will be mitigated by ensuring access to properties through provision of pedestrian planks, provision of adequate signage, and careful traffic management. Mobile hawkers will be assisted to move to places vacant nearby or to other side of the road, to ensure their earnings are not affected. No income loss is anticipated.

34. House Service connections: The provision of house service connection tapping from a distribution main/sub-main. Service pipes will be laid from tapping point to the chamber near property boundary or inside the property boundary. The work shall include excavation, road restoration, etc. As per DPR, proposed water connections will be 1129 numbers for house connections with domestic meters and 50 numbers connections with non-domestic meters.

35. Civil works in the project include linear excavation for laying pipes within the roads, placing pipes in the trench and refilling with the excavated soil. The trenches will be of 0.4 m – 0.7 m wide and 0.8 to 1 m depth. Subsequent to completion of works, road reinstatement will be undertaken by the contractor as part of the civil works. Proposed distribution pipe-laying on roads in most part of the town will not have any permanent or temporary involuntary resettlement impact.

36. Laying of transmission mains and distribution network pipelines in the project area has been carefully planned to minimize disturbance to pedestrians and traffic and avoid income loss to businesses. Potential temporary impacts to traffic/access to shops and residences due to digging and excavation for pipe laying are possible during construction; however, these will be mitigated by ensuring access to properties through provision of pedestrian planks, provision of adequate signage, and careful traffic management. The proposed component wise involuntary resettlement impact is depicted below in the Table 4:

Temporary impacts on traffic/access to shops and residences is anticipated in some places but it will be avoided to maximum extent possible. The contractor will ensure to provide access to shops and residences as per EMP provisions. The contractor will also provide signages of available alternate access route to minimize traffic disruption.

9 Household Domestic- - During construction connections 1129 and period, access to with domestic Non- residents and shops metres domestic may be temporarily 50 affected. Contractor will have to ensure access as per EMP provisions to avoid any economic impact.

37. Mitigation: The sites or locations for the subproject components have been selected carefully to avoid and minimize involuntary resettlement impacts. The following mitigation measures are proposed to avoid and/or reduce the impacts during linear pipe works:

(i) Provide advanced notice (minimum one week) to community along the construction stretch. Distribute information on project and grievance redress mechanism; (ii) Maintain access to avoid disturbance to residents and businesses by providing planks and leaving spaces for businesses and residents to maintain access; (iii) Manage traffic flows as per traffic management plan prepared by the contractor in coordination with local authorities and communities; (iv) Limit the amount of time of open trenches, and complete works quickly where business activities are located; (v) Avoid full street closure to the extent possible; (vi) Contractors shall provide employment opportunity to the local residents and particularly women where possible; and (vii) Contractors shall assist vendors and hawkers in shifting to alternative locations, if required.

38. This subproject does not have any involuntary resettlement impact as there will be no physical or economic displacement. The subproject will not require acquisition of private land as the subproject components are proposed at public land which is owned by the Revenue Department. The transmission and distribution pipeline carrying raw and clear water will traverse only through government road ROW. Thus, no impact on Involuntary Resettlement is expected. An involuntary resettlement screening checklist is prepared and attached as Appendix 3. The subproject is classified as ‘Category C’ for Involuntary Resettlement as per ADB SPS 2009.

VI. BUDGET

39. A budgetary provision is made for costs likely to be incurred during implementation of subproject.

VII. CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

40. No involuntary resettlement impacts are anticipated at identified sites for sub-project components, as adequate vacant and unused land is available for the proposed facilities, within the compounds of government lands. The proposed sites for WTP, GSR and OHT belong to revenue department, GOMP. Office of the municipality - Nemawar is in process to get a no objection certificate (NOC) for water abstraction from the proposed source. Land records are collected from revenue department, refer to Appendix 4. Other pending details listed under Next Steps, shall be appended to the updated DDR. For linear components (pipe laying) or those proposed along government road ROWs, temporary disruption to road users, pedestrians and community members will be avoided in the most congested zones of both the town. Safety measures shall be ensured, and temporary disruptions mitigated during construction by the contractor through simple measures such as provision of planks for pedestrian access to shops and traffic management. Accordingly, the subproject is classified as Category C for involuntary resettlement under ADB SPS 2009.

41. The social safeguards personnel at PMU, MPUSIP will be responsible to undertake a review of due diligence report during project implementation and if there is any imperative change in the alignment, concerned safeguard officials will carry out a due diligence investigation to document and study/undertake the social impact assessment of new alignment.

42. Next steps: The draft IR DDR needs to be updated, once detailed engineering design is final and the DMS is conducted, with the following information:

➢ Transfer of the identified land to Nagar Parishad-Nemawar for the proposed components under WSS which is already in progress. ➢ NOC is required from WRD to abstract water from River Narmada, which is also in progress. ➢ NOC is required from roads under the Revenue Department and PWD to lay the RWRM. ➢ NOC is required from ASI prior to start civil works at GSR. ➢ Reflection of design or site changes proposed, if any. ➢ The updated IR DDR needs to be submitted to ADB and a No Objection from ADB will be obtained, prior to start of construction.
