Objectives of Resettlement Plan & Definition of Resettlement Vocabulary

This resettlement plan (RP) is developed according to the policies and stipulations of Asian Development Bank as well as the relevant laws and regulations of Hunan Province and People’s Republic of China. This document is aimed to provide an action plan for the resettlement and rehabilitation of people (affected persons) affected due to the project, to ensure that they will be benefited from this project, and their living standard will be improved or at least restored after project completion. The resettlement plan is a legal restraint document between the executive agency (Project Management Office) - Key Project Management Office under Hunan Province Water Resources Department, and ADB, as well as local project implementation agencies. With this, the Key Project Management Office under Hunan Province Water Resources Department shall be fully responsible to ensure sufficient funds available for the implementation of resettlement plan, and smooth implementation by relevant county governments. The Resettlement Plan compiled by Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute will be formally approved by the Hunan Province Water Resources Department representing the Hunan Province People’ s Government. In the development project, the land acquisition and resettlement will bring about the unfavorable influence in the life of people who scrape a living or working on these lands. “Project-affected people” refers to those persons whose production or life is unfavorably affected due to the land acquisition and relocation in project, including: 1) Persons whose lands (including housing plots, lands for public facilities, farmlands, forest land, land for animal husbandry, fisheries and sideline activities), structures (private houses and attachments, enterprise structures, or public buildings, etc.), rights and interests or other properties are partly or wholly, temporarily or permanently requisitioned; 2) Persons using the above-mentioned lands, structures or properties; or the people whose businesses, work, residential area or living custom is unfavorably affected. 3) Persons whose living standard is unfavorably affected due to the land acquisition and relocation.

Summary of Resettlement Plan for Cili Urban flood control Subproject

A. Status of Resettlement Plan 1. The proposed Hunan Province Cili County Urban Flood Control Project will finance the following items: 1) newly-built flood control earth embankment of 14.279km, (including 572m of the expressway); 2) heightening and consolidation of the flood control earth embankment of 4.0km; 3) 5 newly-built sluices; 4) 3 newly-built waterlogging drainage stations with an installed capacity of 1224kW; 5) 2 newly-built flood diverging canals with a total length of 0.54km; 6) renovation of 2 flood draining ditches, with a length of 1.15km, and renovation of 4 ditches, with a length of 4.75km. The resettlement plan includes all the above parts, and all the project impacts and resettlement measures are based on the preliminary design and a detailed survey of all the indices. The resettlement modes and compensation standards have been reviewed and endorsed by Cili County People’s Government. The next stage technical design will be based on the preliminary design, so the basic scheme and project impact scope will not have any major changes. If there are changes during technical design or implementation, an updated RP will be prepared and submitted to ADB for concurrence.

2. The project executing agency for the Hunan Flood Control Project is the Key Project Office of Hunan Province Water Resources Department (HPWR). For the proposed Cili Urban Control Subproject, the Local Project Management Office (LPMO) in Cili Water Resources Bureau is the project implementation agency. This resettlement plan has been prepared by LPMO under the guidance of PPMO and assistance of Hunan Hydro and Power Design Institute (HHPDI) and ADB consultants.

B. Scope of Land Acquisition and Resettlement 3. The proposed Cili Urban flood control Subproject will affect 8 villages (residential committees), 26 villager’s groups, and 1 enterprise and institution in Lingyang town of Cili County. According to the detailed impact survey, about 9.96 ha of land will be acquired, 33.36 percent of which is cultivated land, including 23.65 percent of dry land,and 9.71 percent of vegetable land. The remaining 66.64 percent is the flood plain, garden plot, waste land, and urban construction land. During construction, the land to be temporarily occupied is 18.88 hectare. Based on per capita cultivated land in affected villages, the land acquisition will directly affect 196 households and 472 persons, including 85 households of 194 persons impacted by temporary land occupation, and only 74 persons in the affected area need economic rehabilitation. On average, each affected person would lose 0.0119 hectare, which represents a 28.44

3 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

percent loss of their current cultivated land. 4. Along with land acquisition, a total of 8623.16 square meters of buildings would be demolished, the demolition would relocate 33 households and 107 persons. Among total demolished huses, there are 6741.26 square meters of brick-concrete structure, accounting for 78.18 percent, and 1629.9 square meters of brick-wood structure, accounting for 18.9 percent. For affected rural households, they will be moved a short distance to another site within their original villages. 5. Other affected assets include traffic, telecommunications and electrical infrastructure, walls, sunning ground, pond, and tombs. All lands, housing and other assets will be compensated at replacement value.

C. Policy Framework and Entitlements 6. For people unavoidably affected, the resettlement objective is to achieve equal or better income and living standards in line with the PRC Land Administration Law (1998) and the ADB’s Policy on Involuntary Resettlement. The Key Project Management Office under HPWR and Cili PMO will ensure that any people losing land, housing, other assets or income source will be assisted to fully restore their income and living standards. The Hunan Provincial Government in 2000 issued a Methods of Hunan Province for Implementing the Land Administration Law of PRC, which stipulates the regulations for land compensation, resettlement subsidies, young crop compensation, house compensation and other measures to carry out resettlement. According to the policy, the total compensation (land compensation, resettlement subsidy and young crop) will be set at Y22,509 per mu for irrigated farmland; Y15,498 per mu for dry farmland, Y38,948 per mu for commercial vegetable plot, Y9299 per mu for flood plain, Y20,070 per mu for garden plot, Y2,745 per mu for waste land, Y19,395 per mu for housing plot, and Y46,690 per mu for land for the enterprise. Those people losing land temporarily during construction will receive a payment equivalent to production value foregone for the period of loss, which is expected to be 2 years. The land used temporarily will be restored by the contractor to the original condition, or else additional funds will be provided to the owner to restore the land. For structures to be demolished, replacement value will be provided to the affected households based on compensation rates adopted in the affected districts, which is Y309 per square meter for rural brick-concrete structure, and Y239 per square meter for rural brick-wood structure. For affected households, they will be provided with funds for purchase of new housing sites connected with road, electricity and water within the current village group or administrative village. There will be no reduction in house compensation for depreciation, and people will be allowed to salvage materials from their old houses.

D. Resettlement Strategy 7. Efforts to minimize resettlement effects have been made after consultations with local officials during the setting of the alignment in the initial feasibility study. The adjustment of the preliminary design and research has resulted in saving of 27.9% investment, and the number of relocated households was kept to only 33. For those unavoidably affected, the resettlement strategy is to replace losses of housing, land, other assets, infrastructure and income. 8. 1) Among all affected persons, 111 households and 278 persons will be affected by permanent land acquisition, averaging only 0.012 ha per person. About one third of acquired land are farmland and most of them are low yield farmland and affected by frequent floods. According to willingness of villagers, monetary compensation is adopted for the resettlement. The village groups shall allocate the compensation fee to the affected villagers according to their land loss, which could be used to improve farming productions, such as changing cropping pattern and developing green house vegetables) or used for the non-land based activities, such as developing fish breeding and poultry raising). 2) Among the affected population, 40 households (135 persons) from 4 villagers (residential committees) are affected by the demolition, with the demolished houses being 8,623 square meters. Among them, 7 households (28 persons) had alternative houses; and 33 households (107 persons) need to be resettled. It is agreed that new houses of these relocatees will be built within their existing villages, and full compensations for the demolished houses should be paid directly to the APs. The relevant villager groups have agreed to arrange their new housing plots to them so they could construct new houses by themselves. The land utilization standard of housing plot for relocatees is 120 square meters per household. 3) In addition to affected houses, there are 1 enterprise to be affected by the land acquisition and demolition. Since the enterprise had already completed relocation, only cash compensation for lost structures will be provided. 9. The Key Project Management Office under HPWR and Cili PMO will ensure that the resettlement entitlements are provided to the people affected prior to the ground leveling and demolition commencement. Land compensation and resettlement subsidy will be paid to the affected village collectives or individuals. Housing compensation and compensation for young crops and other assets will be provided directly to people losing those assets. Compensation for infrastructure such as electrical and communication fixtures will be paid to the concerned government departments for restoration. 10. The resettlement regulations have standard provisions for moving allowances to assist the affected people during the transition phase. Also, the contractors for the project will be requested by the Key Project Management Office under HPWR and Cili PMO to give priority to resettlement affected households in the allocation of unskilled jobs during construction. This will be handled through

5 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

consultation with the township and village leaders.

E. Institutional Arrangements 11. Hunan Provincial Project Management Office (PPMO) will assume the overall responsibility for implementing resettlement for Hunan Provincial Flood Management Sector Project. Hunan Provincial Resettlement Management Office of PPMO will provide the guidance to the overall project implementation, take charge of coordination of working relationships among relevant project counties and districsts and ensure successful implementation of both civil works and resettlement for all subprojects. For proposed Cili Subproject, Cili County People’s Government will set up Cili County project leading group in order to reinforce the management of the project implementation, coordinate working relationships among relevant townships and towns, and ensure successful implementation of the resettlement program. Under the county project leading group, Cili County Project Management Office is set up to be responsible for project implementation. Within LPMO, a resettlement management office is set up to carry out functions of resettlement planning and implementation for the subproject. With assistance of concerned townships and villages, the resettlement management office is responsible for consulting with APs, delivering the entitlements, supervising resettlement implementation and conducting resettlement monitoring and evaluation.

F. Vulnerable Group

12. Based on the investigation, the minority population affected by the project is 79 persons, accounting for 58.52% of the total persons to be relocated. Many of them are Tujia nationality, inhabiting in the same places for generations. They speak Chinese and intermarry with Han Nationality, which results in assimilation with Han Nationality in many aspects of living and social customs. 13. Of the total affected people, there are 14 vulnerable persons, mainly the widowed and old people, accounting for about 10.37 percent. Under the Resettlement Plan, vulnerable groups will receive the following additional assistance: (i) physical help in housing construction and relocation free of charge and (ii) a special subsidy will be paid to enable them to maintain their living standards while constructing their houses. The specific amount for such assistance will be determined according to the actual condition and their needs. For this purpose, The Key Project Management Office under HPWR and Cili PMO agreed to set aside a special fund with 1 percent of total resettlement cost, which will be used to provide direct and needed help for those vulnerable people.

G. Consultation and Grievance Redress 14. The Land Administration Law of 1998 requires disclosure and consultation with people affected. The people affected have been notified about the key elements of the RP during meetings and interviews. Prior to implementation, there will be further consultations arranged by township and village officials to discuss specific impacts in each village and how they will be addressed. The people losing housing will be offered a choice of housing sites; and those losing agricultural land will have the opportunity to consider suitable income replacement alternatives. All villagers will also have input to decisions on how to utilize the collective compensation funds. 15. In June 2007, several months prior to resettlement implementation, a resettlement information booklet was distributed to all affected townships, villages and households by the resettlement office of Cili County. The information booklet contains the resettlement scope, expected timeframe, compensation rates for land and other assets, other assistance to replace assets, relocation and economic rehabilitation strategies, and the grievance redress mechanisms. The county, township and village officials will ensure that any concerns raised by the people affected are quickly addressed. 16. In case of grievance, people affected will submit their oral or written complaint first to the village committee or the township resettlement office. If their complaint is not settled in ten days, they can seek redress at the county resettlement office, within one month. If still unresolved within two weeks, the PRO of HPWR will try to achieve a solution. The final redress would be sought, if necessary, in the civil courts, in accordance with the Civil Procedures Act.

H. Monitoring and Reporting 17. The detailed plan for internal and external monitoring and evaluation is included in the RP. The LPMO of Cili Water Resources Bureau will engage a qualified monitoring agency to carry out independent resettlement monitoring and evaluation. The independent monitoring agency will ascertain the extent to which the affected people have (i) received their full entitlements on time and (ii) fully restored their livelihoods, income levels and living standards. It will also conduct a baseline survey prior to resettlement, semi-annual investigations during resettlement and annual survey updates for two years after the completion of resettlement. The household survey will include a representative number of those severely affected by loss of land, those losing housing, and those classified as minority and economically vulnerable. 18. Under the leadership of the Key Project Management Office under HPWR, Cili Subproject PMO will set up a quarterly reporting system and will report to PPMO on the progress of land acquisition and resettlement through resettlement progress reports. The Key Project Management Office under HPWR will provide ADB progress reports on the progress of land acquisition and resettlement. The selected

7 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

external monitoring and evaluation agency will provide the independent monitoring and evaluation reports to LPMO, which will also be submitted to ADB through PPMO. The external monitoring and evaluation reports will be prepared twice a year during resettlement implementation and once a year after resettlement completion. After completion of land acquisition and resettlement, the PRO of LPMO will prepare a resettlement completion report, which will be submitted to ADB through PPMO.

I. Finance and Implementation Schedule 19. The RP budget estimate is RMB 9.7696 million yuan, for all costs including compensation, resettlement subsidy, payments for other assets such as housing, moving allowances, subsidy for vulnerable groups, fees for resettlement administration, and monitoring and evaluation. The LPMO under CCWR will guarantee to supplement the resettlement budget, as may prove necessary, to meet any shortfall which emerges in achieving the resettlement objectives. 20. The resettlement schedule has been prepared according to the project construction schedule approved by the EA. It is planned to start the land acquisition in September 2007. The house demolition will be carried out during September 2007 to December 2008. In the progress schedule, it is planned to develop and readjust the cultivated land in the end of 2007 as well as resume the livelihood and living conditions at the beginning of 2008 completely.

1. General Description of Project

1.1 Project Background Hunan Province is located on the south bank of middle reaches of Changjiang River, bordering Jiangxi Province on the east, neighboring the Wuling Mountains on the south, connecting Guangdong Province and Guangxi Province, and close to the Guizhou Province and Chongqing City with the unbroken mountains in Guizhou and Chongqing areas. Changjiang River separates Hunan Province and Hubei Province on the north, and nearly 70% cities of Hunan Province are located in mountainous areas or hilly areas. These cities lie in the areas with relatively high ground elevation, and the landform varies greatly. These areas are subject to the flash flood though they are affected little by the Dongting Lake and the propping of tail water level of the four rivers. Because the river level in mountainous areas rises sharply and abruptly with great flow velocity, the cities along the river are always destructively damaged. In November of 1999, Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute worked out the report on urban flood-control planning in Hunan Province according to Flood-control Planning Outline for Changjiang River Drainage Area and Compilation Outline for Urban Flood-control Planning (Ministry of Water Resources [1998] No.215 Document). This report covers 91 cities, plans for the 18.3 million urban populations, and 2253km2 urban areas. The embankment-construction-oriented project plan is determined in the report, and the existing embankments to be heightened and reinforced are 1037.16km in total, and the would-be-built embankments total 600.53km. Only the cities of above-county-level and once seriously damaged by the flood in the mountainous areas in Hunan Province will be covered by this urban flood-control project in this time. They shall be the economy developed area, such as Xiangtan, Zhuzhou, and Hengyang, which are all the very important industrial cities, boasting the various industries of machinery, electricity, metallurgy, chemicals, building materials, paper making, mining, medicament, and foodstuff. And, of the local areas these cities shall be the financial, communications, and business centers as well as the science and education centers, where the municipal or county government is located, and moreover the distributing center of agricultural produce, industrial product, and commodities. Their economic status is very important. These cities are the main centers of the economic development of those areas with dense population, and are clustered with properties. If these cities are submerged or suffered great losses, the economic development of local areas will be seriously affected. In addition, the manpower and material resources are abundant in these cities; it is the main rear base for flood-control and providing disaster relief. The

submergence of these cities will bring the disaster relief and rehabilitation into a passive situation. In years, the government at every level in Hunan Province and the local masses took great pains and sacrificed a lot for fighting the floods in these cities, and enormous achievements were achieved. According to statistics, in the 36 urban areas undertaking the project, total 286.628 km long flood-control embankments, and 141 drainage sluices, and 124 drainage pump stations of 15648kw have been built. Because the flood-control works is improving slowly, the present urban flood-control standards of these cities are low, which are only for the 4-year-occurrence ~ 20-year-occurrence floods, and their waterlogging drainage abilities are only for floods between 3-year-occurrence ~ 8-year-occurrence, and only a few cities are in the fortified status, while most cities are undefended or incompletely defended. At present, the urban flood-control standard in project area is low. The flood disasters hit there in successive years. According to historical record, great floods occurred in 1980,1981,1983, and 1988 after the frightful flood cataclysms in 1954 and 1955. The losses caused by flood and waterlogging rose year after year. In 1990s, flood disasters frequently happened, and the losses due to the flood disaster rose sharply. In 1991, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, and 1999, large floods and waterlogging disasters happened successively, which caused great losses. Many cities were submerged wholly or partly, and nearly all cities are damaged by flood and waterlogging to various degrees. In 1991, the losses caused by flood disaster amount to 760 million yuan; in 1993, the losses caused by flood disaster amount to 1870 million yuan; in 1994, the losses caused by flood disaster amount to 3090 million yuan; and the great floods in 1995,1996 and 1998 each caused over 5000 million yuan losses, reaching 5610 million yuan, 10900 million yuan and 5973 million yuan respectively. Such enormous losses caused by flood and waterlogging disasters have seriously hindered the life and property of people in urban areas. Therefore, the construction progress and urban flood-control project strengthening shall be speeded up and beefed up to facilitate the economy development being in a speedy, stable and forward way. By constructing and perfecting the necessary flood-control and waterlogging treatment facilities, efforts shall be made to promote the beneficial and abolish the harmful so as to guarantee the safety of people’s lives and assets and to promote the economic development. Cili County is located at the interjunction of tributaries of Lishui River and Loushui River, the current flood control and waterlogging harnessing capacity is considerably low, though, Jiangya reservoir on the upper reaches of Loushui River will take effect to cut flood peak of Lishui River, while, based on the hydrological analysis calculation, the current general flood control standard of the planned urban area is lower than 5-year-occurrence still. Cili County is the subproject of urban flood-control project utilizing loans from ADB, through project implementation, the flood-control and waterlogging treatment ability of the city will be greatly improved. The flood-control standard will be elevated from the present

10 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

2-year-occurrence to 20-year-occurrence; and the waterlogging treatment standard will be elevated from the present 2~5-year-occurrence to 10-year-occurrence. The burden of flood-control on the urban area of Cili County will be greatly relieved, which will facilitate the sound development of society.

1.2 General Situation of Project 1.2.1 Areal Geography Location Cili County is located in the northwest part of Hunan Province, the middle reaches of Lishui River, adjacent to Shimen and Changde eastwards, hangjiajie westwards, and it is a thoroughfare from east to west. The geographic coordinate of Cili County is that the east longitude is 111°08′ and the north latitude is 29°24′. The county seat - Lingyang town is located in the east part of the county, the confluence mouth of Loushui and Lishui Rivers. Based on the current status and development plan of the county, the county seat is distributed along left and right banks of the trunk of Lishui River and the river mouth belt of Loushui River. The county seat starts from Lingxi river, to the east, foot of Yangjiao mountain to the south, upper reaches of Yong’an bridge to the west, and crosses Lishui River to the north. It is the east gate of Zhangjiajie City as well as a support base for city tourist industry. See attached drawing 1 for the Schematic Drawing of Geographic Position of Cili County Urban Flood-control Project. 1.2.2 Contents and Scale of Project Construction Cili County Urban Flood-control Project is a sub-project of hilly area urban flood-control project in Hunan Province utilizing the loans from ADB. It includes the flood control and waterlogging harnessing projects, and the main project scale is as follows: 1) newly-built flood control earth embankment of 14.279km, including 572m utilizing completed expressway; 2) heightening and consolidation of the flood control earth embankment of 4.0km; 3) 5 newly-built sluices; 4) 3 newly-built waterlogging drainage stations with an installed capacity of 1224kW; 5) 2 newly-built aparting-flood canals, with a length of 0.54km; 6) renovation of 2 flood draining ditches, with a length of 1.15km, and renovation of 4 ditches, with a length of 4.75km. 1.2.3 Project Investment Estimation and Planned Progress According to the Feasibility Study Report on Hunan Province Cili County Urban Flood-control Project Utilizing Loans from Asian Development Bank, which is compiled by the Hunan Province Nanfang Hydraulic and Hydropower Design Institute, the estimation of the total investment of the project

11 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

is RMB 119.2653 million yuan, including the resettlement investment of RMB 9.7696 million yuan. Based on the project progress, the total construction time limit of the project is 34 months, including 24 months for construction of main works. 1.2.4 Socioeconomic Benefit of Project After completion of the project, the existing flood control capacity of the city will be elevated from the present 2-year-occurrence to 20-year-occurrence, and the waterlogging harnessing capacity will be elevated from the present 2~5-year-occurence to 10-year-occurrence. Thus, it could offer a superior environment to maximize the guarantee for the safety of lives and properties of the people. As the flood control embankment is integrated with the construction of urban roads, docks, and discharging pipelines as well as renovation of the bank lines, it could not only relief the traffic congestion in the the downtown area, but also beautify the environment and offer a superior rest and entertainment area for residents. In addition, with the improvement of the flood control and waterlogging harnessing standard, it could greatly reduce threat to lives and properties of the people by flood and waterlogging disasters. What’s more, it strengthens the sense of security of the people, guarantees the peaceful and comfortable environment of the people, as well as establishes a firm foundation for the industrial and agricultural production, therefore, its social and economic benefits are distinct. The full investment economic internal rate of return of the project is 15.72%, larger than 12%; the economic net present value is RMB 27.605 million yuan, larger than zero, and the economic benefit cost ratio is 1.29, larger than 1.0. Accordingly, all the economic indices are good, and it owns strong anti-risk capacities, and the project implementation is rational in the economy.

1.3 Affected Scope of Project Based on the geographical location of Cili County, landform status, current state of the flood control project and the riverway, as well as the overall urban planning, the whole urban area is divided into Chengnan, Chengbei, and Yong’andu flood control protective circles. The first one - Chengnan protective circle (Chengnan district) is located at the right bank of Lishui River. The embankment line starts from Yong’an bridge eastwards, reaches Baiyang bridge (left bank of the outlet of Heiyuwan gulch) along the right bank of Lishui River, afterwards, it reaches Guanyin bridge at the outlet of Shuimoyu stream from the right bank of the outlet of the gulch along the river banks of Lishui River, after left and right banks of Guanyin bridge connect with the natural highland, it goes on to reach the place around the outlet of Lingxin river via Chengguan power station and Shuang’an along the right bank of Lishui River, and then, form a closed circle after connecting the expressway and Hujiagang via Dongjiagang and Zhuojiaping along the right bank of Lingxi river southeast. The total length of embankment for

12 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

Chengnan Protective Circile is 9.966km. Of which, the embankment at the right bank of the trunk of Lishui River is 5.884km, the embankment at the left bank of Lingxi river is 3.51km, and a section of expressway of 0.575km will be utilized. The second one is Chengbei protective circle. The embankment line starts from Youzha bridge at the left bank of Loushui river, and form a complete protective circle after reaching the natural highland of Hejiabang via Jiangjiaping, left bank of Chengguan power station, Taiyangzhou, the sidewalk, and the outlet of Beigang stream. The total length of Chengbei Protective Circle is 5.171km, of which, the embankment of Loushui River is 2.474km and the embankment of Lishui River is 2.697km. And the third one is Yong’andu protective circle. The embankment starts from the natural highland near Cili nitrogen fertilizer factory above Yong’an bridge at the left bank of Lishui River, reaches Yong’andu of the confluence of Loushui River via Yong’an bridge, afterwards, it ends in Shuangjing along the right bank of Loushui River via Gongjia polder, with a total length of 3.714km. The total length of the embankment lines in these three circles is 18.851km. The main engineering measures which involve land acquisition and relocation include embankment consolidation and building, renovation, rebuilding, and construction of sluices and electric drainage stations. In addition, the project construction also involves temporary land occupation for construction sites and borrow pits. The land acquisition areas, and the area in which the people’s life and production is seriously affected by the project construction shall all be regarded as the affected areas due to the project land acquisition and relocation. In this phase, the affected area due to the land acquisition and relocation in project is based on the recommended scheme in the project preliminary design phase. The scope of impact is determined by detailed survey assisted with 1/2000 topographic map, which involves 8 villages (residential committees) and 26 villager’s groups of Lingyang town, Cili County. The final scope of land acquisition and relocation might have minor adjustment during implementation.

2. Project Impacts

2.1 Measures for Avoiding or Reducing to the Minimum the Land Acquisition and Relocation Impacts 2.1.1 Measures for Reducing the Land Acquisition Impacts in Project Design Phase Since the project was launched, in order to reduce the impact on the local social economy due to the project construction, the flood-control scenic road plan has been revised and improved for several times, and the special technical review meetings had been conducted. The objective of plan optimization is to minimize the scope of impact, reduce resettlement cost and facilitate the project construction. 1) In project planning phase, the impact on the social economy by the project construction will be included as one of the key factors in comparison of different design alternatives. ①In the Cili County Urban Flood-control Project, according to the river system, terrain condition, and situation of the existing dike within the planning scope as well as the urban construction, comparison of three designed schemes for the embankment section of Lingxi River in Chengnan District have been made. And comparison of the two dike line layouts also have been made, which including the new dike section in Chengbei District, from left bank of Chengguan power station to Hejiabang, and the one from the dike section of Loushui River, from Yong’andu to Shuangjing. Dike Section of Lingxi River in Chengnan District: Scheme I fully utilizes highway, no protection set in the east of the highway; Scheme II is an outer line, the dike being arranged along Lingxi River, with no utilization of highway; Scheme III is an inner line, the dike being arranged along the highland, with partial utilization of highway. The comparison of the schemes of dike line is referred to Table 2.1.1-1.

Comparison of Schemes for the Dike Line Extending from Chengnan District to Hujiagang Table 2.1.1-1 Index Scheme I (full Scheme Item Unit Scheme II (outer utilization of III( inner line line scheme) highway scheme) scheme) Earthwork Excavation M3 11390 10598 87610 Earthwork Filling M3 79870 392011 301142 Concrete Precast Block Slope Protection M3 2110 14170 9653 Sodding Protection M3 12620 62752 42425 Relocation Fee of Relocatee Ten thousand yuan 185 302 236 Investment Ten thousand yuan 965 2460 1840

From the above table, the investment of Scheme I is less, however, currently there are 1 village (Shuang’an Residential Committee), 5 mine enterprises and 1 school in the east of highway, with a total

16 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

population of 4381; moreover, this area is to be residential area as planned in the urban construction planning of Cili County, so it should be well protected. Therefore, Scheme I is not practicable. The investment of Scheme II is more than Scheme III by over RMB 6.2 million Yuan and execution of Scheme III can make the river flow of Lingxi River more free and smoother so that silting , scouring and bank collapse could be reduced at the critical dike section. By means of analysis, Scheme III is chosen as the proposed scheme in the prelimnary design for the dike line. ② The new embankment section of urban area starts from the left bank of Chengguan power station to Hejiabang: Scheme I is an inner line one, which includes constructing 500 meters’ new embankment from Chengguan power station downwards to a footpath (leading to Jingtai Village), then continuously building the embankment along the right bank of Lishui River till the natural highland of Hejiabang and Jielong Bridge. A gate at the exit of Beigangxi is built for control. The dike line has a length of 1.17km and the terrace elevation is at a ranges of 89～91m. Scheme II is an inner line one, which includes constructing 500 meters’ new embankment from Chengguan power station downwards to a footpath (leading to Jingtai Village), and the north of dike line connecting to the natural highland of Jintai Village along a footway and over the exit of Beigangi so that a protection circle is formed. A gate is built at the exit of Beigangxi for preventing the flood from reversely flowing into the protection circle. The dike line has a total length of 0.97km and the terrace elevation is about 91m. The comparison of the schemes of dike line from Chengguan power station of Chengbei District to Hejiaban is referred to Table 2.1.1-2. Comparison of Schemes for the Dike Line Extending from Chengguan Power Station of Chengnan District to Hejiabang

From the above table, although the investment of Scheme I is more than that of Scheme II by over 0.2 RMB million yuan, the dike line of Scheme I is smoother and straighter than that in Scheme II, and the protection area of Scheme I is more than that in Scheme II by over 80 mu. In result, Scheme I is chosen as the proposed scheme in the prelimnary design for the dike line. ③The dike section within Yong’andu District is from Yong’andu to Shuangjing. Scheme I is an outer

17 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

line one, from Yong’andu to Shuangjing natural highland along the river and over highway via Xingjiawu Yard and Gongjiayuan, with the dike line of 1.65km and elevation of 89～90m. Scheme II is an inner line one, from Yong’andu to Shuangjing natural highland along the Grade I terrace and over highway via Xingjiawu Yard and Gongjiayuan, with the dike line of 1.577 km and elevation of 92～93m. The comparison of the schemes of dike line from Yong’andu of Yong’andu District to Shuangjing is referred to Table 2.1.1-3. Comparison of Schemes for the Dike Line Extending from Yong’andu District to Shuangjing

From the above table, the investment of Scheme I is more than that in Scheme II by over 0.5 RMB million yuan. Although the area of outer line scheme is more than inner line by over 50 mu, the former one affects the cross section of flood passing greater than the latter. In result, Scheme II is chosen as the proposed scheme in the prelimnary design for the dike line. 2) The direction of alignment shall try best to be based on the existing levees. The selected alignment should try to reduce the acquired land areas, avoid house demolition and minimize impacts on irrigation facilities. In the densely populated area in cities and towns, the alignment of new dikes shall try best to avoid demolition of highrise buildings or multi-floor buildings to reduce the quantities of demolition and relocation. 3) The construction design shall be optimized in such a way to shorten the construction period, and reasonably arrange the house relocation and construction period in order to minimize the losses of resettlers’ properties. For example, the house relocation and rebuilding shall be conducted in the farm slack season, and the land acquisition or occupation shall begin after harvesting the crops. For the temporary land occupation that involve more than 2 years, efforts will be made to try best to utilize the wastelands. 4) In the project design, careful consideration will be made to minimize the inconvenience brought about

18 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

to the life and production of local residents due to the dike construction. In general, for the convenience of local residents, all damages caused by the construction to the irrigation channels, mechanical pier, communications facilities and other infrastructures will be restored to keep the complete original functions in a timely manner. 2.1.2 Measures for Reducing the Impact due to Land Acquisition in Project Construction The lands occupied in this project are distributed in linear form along Lishui River. As for the whole project area, the project construction won’t affect the local industrial and agricultural production, people’s life and social economy greatly. The land acquisition and relocation along the linear area will not bring much impact. However, in order to minimize the impact on the local area due to the project construction as much as possible, special attention will be paid to the layout of construction site and selection of construction scheme, and prevent the unnecessary land acquisition and house demolition. The following measures shall be adopted: 1) Before demolition and relocation, organize the relevant persons to conduct the on-spot survey. Try to remove less or do not remove the houses which is unnecessary to remove or can be partly removed in practice. 2) Before the demolition of the buildings due to the temporary land occupation by the project, report to the unit of owner by PMO to empty it. Or set up the temporary housing to be used in resettlement within the unit area. After the project completion, rebuild new buildings and return to the original owner or unit. 3) For the loss of residents caused by the demolition and relocation, adequate compensate according to the replacement value will be paid to reduce the unfavorably impact on resettlers. 4) The resettlement area shall be located at the place close to the original residential areas so as to keep the existing social relationship for the affected people, on the other hand, it will also reduce the commuting for the affected people. 5) For relocated enterprises, notify them in advance, and arrange the site for relocation, compensate the loss, try best to shorten the interruption period, and negotiate with the County Project Management Office to provide proper rehabilitation for affected employees. 6) During relocation and resettlement, the concerned local functional departments shall vigorously support the resettlers and affected enterprises, provide the convenience for them and carry on the resettlement work smoothly, and reduce the loss and relief the burden on resettlers. 7) Strengthen the system of public participation. Before the project construction, clarify the project commencement time and project construction planning progress by putting Notice in the project affected area and the resettlement area, disclose the compensation policies for land acquisition and resettlement, and collect comments and opinions from the relocatee and original residents in

19 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

resettlement area. In project construction period, in order to benefit the local community, the priority will be given to use the local materials and use the local transportation and labor if the technical conditions allowed. 8) Reduce the dust emission and strengthen health management for construction workers. The construction unit shall carefully plan the routing for transport earthwork and stonework. Measures shall be adopted to guarantee that the soils and stones won’t be sprinkled along the way from the truck full of loading, and thus affect the environment tidiness. In construction period, a large number of labors will come to the worksite to undertake all kinds of works and services. In order to guarantee the public security and orders in work site and the health of various groups in construction area, the project construction unit shall supervise and urge the builders to obey the regulations of local environment sanitation department, toughen the management on the healthy protection for builder group, timely clear the domestic waste on construction site, keep the construction area tidy, and prevent the occurrence and transmission of infectious diseases.

2.2 Investigation on Project Impacts 2.2.1 Investigation Contents From December 2004 to January 2006, Hunan Province Hydraulic and Hydropower Design Institute, together with the Cili County Water Resources Bureau, the government at each level, formed a joint investigation team. The team conducted the comprehensive survey on the project impacts according to the coverage determined in engineering design and the 1:2000 geologic type topographic map in hand. The contents of investigation included the land acquisition, the land acquisition affected population, houses to be removed and relocated, and supplementary facilities, scattered trees, small businesses of industry and commerce, enterprises and institutions, and agricultural sideline production facilities and special facilities, etc. 2.2.2 Investigation Method 1) Investigation in Land Acquisition: The investigators clearly found out on-spot the ownerships of various lands according to the 1/2000 topographic map in hand. The area of cultivated land, garden plot, woods, and various lands were measured and calculated in the unit of villager’s group. 2) Demographic Census: In the investigation in the land acquisition and relocation, affected people was classified into three kinds, affected by land acquisition without relocation, affected by demolition and relocation without land acquisition, and affected by both land acquisition and relocation. The actual affected populations were further divided according to the non-agricultural population and agricultural population, with

2) Temporary Land Acquisition The construction temporary land occupation refers to the temporarily-borrowed land in the project construction period, including land occupation of stone material yard, construction plant, construction warehouse, and temporary area for livelihood and temporary construction road during construction period. ① The temporary land for the works construction mainly refers to borrow pit, construction road, construction plant, construction warehouse and various stock yards. The temporary facilities occupy land of 7455 m2, construction road land of 16000m2, the extraction of soil material in borrow pit ocuppies temporary land of about 125300m2 and spoil yard occupies land of 40000m2, which are 188755m2 in total, equivilant to 283.13mu. ② As the existing roads will be damaged during project implementation process, corresponding compensation costs shall be paid to the municipal administration department. As the compensation costs are included in the project construction contract as part of the project costs, they will be paid by the construction Contractor. Accordingly, the project construction temporary road land occupation will not be included and the compensation costs will not be estimated in the report. ③ The temporary land mainly affects the soil and stone material yards in the project, involving 1 town and 7 administrative villages. Various land with an area of 283.13 mu are temporarily expropriated, of which paddy field is 54.1mu, dry farmland is 36.6mu, shrubbery land is 83.15mu, flood land is 24.3mu and waste land is 84.98mu. The mean time limit for land borrowing is two years. See table 2.3-3 for details of the statistical conditions of the investigation results of the temporary land acquisition in this project.

2.3.2 Affected Population Due to Project 1) Affected Population Due to Land Acquisition The investigation of the affected population due to land acquisition of the project will be counted from two aspects, one is the actually affected population due to land acquisition of the project; the other is the number of agricultural population need economic rehabilitation according to the principle of Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China, namely, the economic rehabilitation shall be rearranged to the agricultural population who has lost all of their main productive materials - cultivated land. The concept of the number of persons requiring economic rehabilitation is calculated based on collective land ownership in rural China, which is an important indicator in analyzing land acquisition impacts in the process of land acquisition and resettlement1. Based on the physical indices during the course of investigation on land acquisition and demolition for the project, the population in need of economic rehabilitation will be counted in villagers’ groups. The agricultural population in need of economic rehabilitation for each affected village group is calculated with the area of land acquisition divided by cultivated land per capita of each group before land acquisition. The result was 74 persons. As the project is distributed in linear shape along Lishui River and Loushui River, for most affected persons, they would only lose a small part of lands. According to the site investigation and statistics, 196 households (472 persons) are actually affected by land acquisition in the project, of which, 111 households (278 persons) will be actually affected by permanent land acquisition in the project, averaging 0.18 mu cultivated land per person. About 85 households (194 persons) will be actually affected by temporary land occupation. 2) Affected Population Due to Demolition According to the site investigation, in the project, 40 households (135 persons) shall be relocated (all are rural population) and houses of 8623.16 m2 shall be demolished. Among 40 households of relocatees, 7 households have other houses, so demolition and relocation for the project have limited

1 However, the actual economic rehabilitation measures are formulated for the actual affected households, most of whom are only partially affected. Those more seriously affected will be targeted for rehabilitation support, in addition to compensation.

27 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

impacts on their normal daily life and no rehabilitation is required. For the rest of 33 households (107 persons), relocation and rehabilitation is required. 3) Employees in the Affected Enterprises According to the investigation, 1 enterprise having 9 employees in all will be affected by the project construction. Since the enterprise had already been closed down some time ago, there are no actual impacts on those employees. 4) Affected Individuals Engaged in Small-scale Business According to the investigation, 5 individual shops will be affected by the land acquisition and demolition in the project area. Most these small shops rented spaces from local residents. There are 11 persons working in these 5 individual shops (only includes employees and the owners are included in the population of residential houses). All of them will be affected by the project when their businesses are closed due to demolition and land acquisition impact. 5) Total of Affected Population Due to Project Through statistics, 228 households (595 persons) will be affected by the project land acquisition. Among them, 188 households (440 persons) will be affected by land acquisition (without house demolition), which will include 85 households (194 persons) to be affected by the temporary land acquisition); 32 households (103 persons) will be affected by house demolition only (without land acquisition); and 8 households (32 persons) will be affected by both the land acquisition and house demolition. 9 employees will be affected by the their enterprises’ or institutions’ demolition, and 11 individuals will be affected by removal their own small shops’ demolition. The temporary land are mainly distributed in Lingxi Village while the temporary land of the other villagers are all collectively-owned land areas. Among the affected population due to land acquisition and resettlement, 74 agricultural persons need economic rehabilitation. About 33 households (107 persons) need to be rehabilitated through replacement housing. The demolition and reconstruction of enterprises and institutions shall affects 9 employees. 11 individual employees of shops shall be affected by the interruption of their business. See table 2.3-4 for details of the affected population in the project. 2.3.3 Houses and Auxiliary Facilities to be Demolished 1) Affected Residential Houses and Auxiliary Facilities by the Project The demolished houses for construction of the project involve 4 villages (residential committee) of Lingyang Town in Cili County. The project affects 40 households (135 persons),of which 33 households(107 persons) are all rural residents who need to be relocated. The residential houses of 8623.16m2 are to be demolished, of which brick-concrete structures are 6741.26m2, brick-wood structures are 1629.9m2 and simple structures are 252m2. In addition, along with house demolition, the project will also affect cement sunny ground of 779m2, surrouding wall of 50m2, 14 wells, 28 telephones

28 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

and CATV of 28 households. According to the investigation, in the project land acquisition area, most residential houses are individually owned. All the residential houses are one or two-floor houses with brick concrete structure and brick wood structure. Since many demolished houses were built in 1980s, the basic living conditions and the related facilities are considerably poor. Moreover, due to frequent floods, the current riverbank pushes itself towards the inland for more than ten meters compared with that in the 1980s, which has seriously threaten the life security of the residents. Therefore, most residents also hope they can relocate as soon as possible, so as to improve their living conditions. See table 2.3-5 for details of the investigation conditions of the residential houses to be removed in the project. 2) Affected Non-residential Structures by the Project According to the investigation, in the scope of the land acquisition due to the project, houses of 1 institution and 5 individual shops are to be affected by the demolition. The non-residential structures area reaches 1916m2, of which brick-concrete structures are 1876m2 and simple structures are 40m2 (the 5 individual shops serve the purpose of both residence and business, whose area are calculated and included in the residential houses to be demolished). In addition, the project affects cement sunny ground of 40m2 and bounding wall of 120m2. See table 2.3-6 for details of the investigation conditions of the non-residential houses to be removed in the project.

2.3.4 Scattered Trees According to investigation, there is no scattered tree in the land acquisition range of the project.

2.3.5 Affected Individuals Engaged in Small-scale Business According to the investigation statistics, there are 5 individual small shops in the affected range, and the operation area is about 179.2 m2, and the affected individuals are 11 persons. As the affected individual shops are the unprofessional ones used for both private residence and business, and the operators utilize the old houses or rent them to others for residence or operation for catering and hardware, the scale is considerably small (the average operation area is 35.84 m2), and their main customers are local residents with limited outsite population. Most of their business is bad. Since these small shops are mainly used for residence, the area has been listed in the residential house to be removed. See 2.3-7 for details of the affected individual commerce small shops in the project.

2.3.6 Affected Enterprises and Institutions According to the investigation, 1 institution that will be affected by the land acquisition and house demolition in the project area has 9 employees and occupies the land of 1.72 mu. Due to the flood, the enterprise was closed in 2003. Accordingly, the staffs had been transferred to work in the other sectors by relevant departments. Therefore, no rehabilitation is required and only compensation for land and houses need to be provided to the affected party. 2.3.7 Affected Special Facilities by the Project The investigators have conducted the site investigation and registration to the affected traffic facilities, transformation facilities, post & telecommunication line, and other special facilities to be resumed or rebuilt according to the project land acquisition range confirmed by the design. The project affects 6 arch bridges, 10KV high-voltage line of 3.6km, 380V low-voltage line of 8.12km, telephone lines of 5km

2.3.8 Affected Minorities Due to Project Cili county covers an area of 3276 square kilometers in total, accounting for 1.7% of the total area of Hunan Province, of which mountainous region is 3.4 million mu and cultivated land area is 0.5712 million mu. The county governs 31 towns/townships (including 7 townships of Tujia Nationality) and 675 administrative villages (residential committee). The county has total population of 0.6757 million, of which minority population is 0.4091 million, accounting for 61% of the total population, and most of them are Tujia Nationalities. According to investigation, in the project, 79 minority persons are affected by the demolition of houses, account for 58.52% of the total relocatees. All of them are all Tujia Nationalities. The investigation of residence registration indicates that the minority population accounts a large share of total affected persons by the project. Most of them are local residents living there for generations while some move here because of marrying local people. In general, minorities get along with Han Nationality very well with harmonious relationship for many years. In terms of income structure of the minority families, like those Han families, it is dominated by non-farm income coming from business or working as outside labors. Most incomes of rural population are no longer dependent on their farmland. For minority population, they enjoy the same rights and as Han Nationality in most social and economic aspects, such as land allocation, education and politics, etc. In fact, in some aspects, such as college entering exam and tax rate, the minority people can be beneficial from the favorable policies compared with Han Nationalities. The situation of population distribution of minority is referred to Table 2.3-9 for details.

2.3.9 Affected Vulnerable Groups Due to Project

2.3.9.1: Gender

During the survey, the team paid special attention on women in the project areas and organized group discussions attended by women. The participated women included those Han and Tujia nationalities and represented by different ages groups and education levels among those above 18 years old. In addition, through sample household survey, further understanding of women in the project area was obtained regarding their roles in their families, participation on public affairs and health issues.

(1) Status of Women is Improved and Man and Women Enjoy Equal Rights in the Family

In the project areas, there is no clear separation of women and men in their responsibilities. Most of them share the equal responsibilities of farming activities, which is closely related with their availability. Since women play more important roles in most housework, their contribution to family income is relatively high. As a result, in many families, women are responsible for making most financial decisions, and play important roles in determining large family issues and outcomes.

(2) High Level of Participation on Public Affairs

According to the survey, most women have high degree of participation in public affairs. Most of them participated in the election of village chiefs; some of village officials are women. In the process of RP preparation, women demonstrated high degree of attention and provided many good suggestions.

(3) Freedom of Marriage

In Cili County, different ethnic women all have freedom to select their spouses. As long as both sides agree, Tujia, Miao, Bai men or women could marry other ethnic men or women. There is no barrier of marriage between different nationalities.

(4) Enjoy Equal Access as Men to Education and Health Care

In general, the education levels in the project area is relatively low and medical condition is not well developed. However, in terms of access to education and health care, men and women have relatively equal rights. Due to historic reasons, most old women have lower education level than that of men. However, along with social development, education levels among women has improved greatly and most young women have similary education level as men.

2.3.9.2: Vulnerable Groups

Vulnerable groups: Mainly include the underprivileged families (per capita income is less than 130yuan/month), handicapped families (disabled persons) and families of the elders who live alone(widows

36 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute or widowers over 70 years old), etc. The vulnerable groups of 14 persons will be affected by the project, accounting for 5.96% of the total affected population. They are mainly the poor population and elderly who are entitled to Urban Minimum Living Allowance. During resettlement process, the affected vulnerable groups in the project will be further confirmed through comparison and analysis between the member structures in affected families, employment status of labor, family resources, and other conditions and the data of the local civil affairs departments. Once the affected households are proved to be the vulnerable groups, the project execution agency will give special help to them during resettlement implementation process. The situation of vulnerable groups is referred to Table 2.3-10.

2.4 Impact Analysis of Project 2.4.1 Project Impact Characteristics 1) The land acquisition and relocation affects limited number of households and population. The affected population accounts for only 1.46% of the total population in the affected villages. The acquisition of cultivated covers an area of only 49.82mu, accounting for 0.74% of the total cultivated land area among affected village groups. 2) Relocation due to construction of project affects 40 households (135 persons) with 8623.16m2; most of them or 60% are concentrated in Taiping Village of Lingyang Town. Among the houses to be demolished, 78% of the houses are of brick-concrete structure. 3) Land of 149.36 mu are to be acquired permanently for construction of the project, of which the cultivated land accounts for 33.36%, including dry farmland of 23.65% and vegetable land of 9.71%. The rest of 66.64% are beach land, garden land and urban construction land. These acquired cultivated land are distributed in 5 villages (residential committee) and 11 village groups or residents groups in

37 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

Lingyang Town of Cili County, with the characteristics of liner shape and dispersedness in distribution. 4) The 5 individual small shops affected by project construction are the unprofessional ones used both as residence and business. Their scale is relatively small with average operation area being 35.8 m2, and the business profits are relatively lower in general. 5) There is 1 enterprise affected by the land acquisition and relocation within the scope of project. At present, the enterprise had been relocated and the previous working area have been abandoned. 6) There are no important special facilities in the project land acquisition and resettlement area, except for a few high-voltage transmission lines and post & telecommunication lines, the rest is the rural small infrastructure. 2.4.2 Impact Analysis Evaluation The construction of project will damage the original production system in the affected area, and certain impacts will be brought to the local production and livelihood accordingly. The losses of the land resources will destroy the material conditions for livelihood of part of the farmers, so, they shall adapt to new environment for working and livelihood again. The staff of the design unit have fully considered the destructive effect of land acquisition on the local production and livelihood system during project design process, and accordingly, they have constantly optimized the project design, adopted project measures to reduce the land acquisition area, and minimized the impacts of project construction on local production and livelihood. At the same time, as the project is distributed in linear shape along Lishui River and Loushui River, according to the analysis on each villager’s group, the permanent land acquisition shall affect 6 villages (residential committee). Cultivated land of 49.82mu shall be acquired for the project permanently, 8.3mu in average for each village. For the 5 villages who are in need of economic rehabilitation, the per capita cultivated land is 0.63mu and the per capita residual cultivated land is 0.62mu after land acquisition by the project (the percentage of land acquisition is 2.08%). All 11 affected village groups would lose less than 10% of their land holding. The relocatees affected by the project are rural residents and the income of agricultural population primarily comes from non-agriculture activities (average agricultural income of each family is RMB 1859 Yuan, accounting for only 24.2% of their total income viz: 7675). It is proposed that 11 affected agricultural laborers will engage in breeding industry. By means of analysis, their income will not be seriously reduced due to the decrease of land. The per capita net income is RMB 2038 before the land acquisition and the target income is RMB 2136. After economic rehabilitation, the income of the resettlers shall increase to RMB 2,160 and RMB 2250, which shall exceed target income. Through the above analysis, the potential impacts on the production and daily lives by the construction of the project will be relatively small and their income and livelihood could be retored and improved after resettlement and rehabilitation. More detail analysis is presented in Chapter 5.

Nowadays, the topography of the project impact area is low and flat, and most areas often suffer from flood and waterlogging disasters, which restrict the development of local economy, the project construction has provided a chance for reconstruction of production system and social system for resettlers. After completion of the project, the capability of flood control and emergency service along the new dike will be greatly improved, and the disastrous degree of flood will be reduced, so as to provide a better environment that safeguard peoples’ lives and properties. At the same time, the circulation of the agricultural products and byproducts will be accelerated, and the development of local agricultural production will be improved. In addition, in combination with the RP implementation such as adjustment of agricultural planting structure and improvement of irrigation and water conservancy as well as reclamation of cultivated land, full exploitation of land resources potential is also a vital element of the protective policies on cultivated land used for land occupation of project construction to execute the land management law. According to the compensation system for cultivated land occupation, and the principle of "Land Quantity of the reclaimed should be Equivalent to that occupied for construction", the compensation will be made to the lost cultivated land so as to reach the balance of occupation and compensation, and by RP the resettlers will be relocated in the areas with considerably superior natural and traffic conditions, and social environment. Additionally, the preference and support will be given to the resettlers in the aspects of policies, technologies, funds, and substances, so as to ensure that they will restore or reach the former level as soon as possible.

2) Basic Attitude of Affected People The sample survey and analysis shows that: ① Have knowledge with the project: 97.6% of the affected people claimed that they had knowledge of the project but 2.4% are on the contrary. ② Sources of information: 90.2% of the affected people get known from the investigation persons and 9.8% from the residents of the neighboring villages. ③ Support attitude: All affected people hold an attitude of supporting to the project. ④ Views on Impact: 90.5% of the affected people think the flood control benefit is obvious, and by the way of the reasonable compensation, the negative impacts can be alleviated; 5.1% think the flood control benefit is obvious, while the negative impacts are big; 4.4% think the flood control has no influence, but the removal will bring a certain negative impacts. ⑤ Resettlement Approach: For urban resettlers, 100% choose the cash compensation for rehabilitation, and would like to purchase houses by themselves. ⑥ Economic rehabilitation: 85.1% ask for replacement land through land adjustment, and of 14.9% resettlers ask for cash compensation.

3.5 Social and Economic Effects for Resettlement to the Affected Population The project implementation will produce a certain impact on socio-economic factor: 1. The affected area is located at the junction of the rural and urban areas with good infrastructure conditions, where the local farmers have a lot of opportunities in non-farm employment, such as daily labor and small business. Most those surplus labor forces have moved into the second and tertiary industry or individual business, gradually moving out of reliance in the land. According to the investigation, in 2005 in the affected Lingyang Town, there were 12917 employed labor forces, including 2057 non-agricultural population of industry, building construction, traffic, wholesale and retail, accounting for 15.92% of the rural labor forces. Analysis from the incomes structure, the annual total income per household of the affected households was RMB 7675 yuan, including RMB 1859 yuan for the agricultural incomes, only accounting for 24.2% of the total income. The investigation shows that in spite of the land loss, the local farmers will suffer the decrease of agricultural incomes, however, due to the small proportion for plantation in the total incomes, they will have little impacts on their production and living. 2. For farmers with land plantation as their main livelihood resources, the land loss will result in the loss of complete or partial means of production, however, as the project is linearly distributed along the Lishui

50 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

and Loushui Rivers, in the upstream of the Zishui River, the land acquisition of the project will result in not big influence on the agricultural production of resettlers, on average the 5 affected villages will lose their land of 2.08%. For 11 affected village groups, all of them would lose less than 10% of their land holding. However, for those households directly affected by land acquisition (111 housholds and 278 persons), every affected person will lose about 28.44% of their land holding. According to the on-spot investigation, it is known that, in the affected 11 villager’s groups, the No.15 villager’s group of Shuang’an Village has the largest amount of cultivated land loss or 15.2mu, and the land loss for other village groups ranged from 0.3 to 8.3mu. Most of the farmers have suffered little impacts. In addition, in the affected villages the agricultural resettlement mode of farmland adjustment will be adopted, which will maintain the traditional production mode and livelihood for the affected persons, and can restore, or even increase their income or living standard within short period of time. The cash compensation mode can also be directly adopted, so the farmers can invest the land compensation costs into various farm or nonfarm activities, such as adjusting planting structure, developing greenhouse vegetables, expanding animal husbandry and engaging in other nonfarm activities, which would increase their incomes and improve their current economic status. Therefore, the land occupation will produce little impacts on their production and livelihood. 3. For relocated households, the process of moving and decorating new houses will consume certain manpower and material resources for the affected households, which need to be considered by the project sponsors. The PMO will, according to the relevant policies, make compensation to their loss of moving and traffic costs, on site infrastructure costs for the new housing plots, and necessary transfer allowance during relocation and rehabilitation. In addition, the PMO and the local village committees will provide necessary assistance in the process. Therefore, the impacts from the project will be reduced to the minimum. 4. For the relocated enterprises and institutions, relocation needs a period of time or a certain procedure to identify new spaces, which will affect normal operation for a period of time and will result in the loss of operation incomes for them. According to the investigation, the affected 1 enterprise has been closed and staff have been transferred in other place, so their production and operation have no impact. The project construction will bring a certain influences on the residents and businesses within the project area, but the impact is little and after completion of the project, it will create favorable conditions for further development of Cili County, and facilitate the sustainable quick increase in economy.

4.2 Relevant Articles of the ADB 4.2.1 Policy Bases (1) Reluctant Resettlement Policy of the ADB (issued in November, 1995) and Resettlement Manual of the ADB ---Doable Practice Direction (issued in 1998) (2) Policy about national minorities of the ADB

65 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

(3) Policy about poor supporting of the ADB 4.2.2 Relevant Policies and Regulations The Resettlement Policy of the ADB includes the principles as follows. (1) Involuntary resettlement should be avoided where feasible. (2) Where population displacement is unavoidable, it should be minimized by exploring all viable project options. (3) People unavoidably displaced should be compensated and assisted, so that their economic and social future would be generally as favorable as it would have been in the absence of the project. (4) People affected should be informed fully and consulted on resettlement and compensation options. (5) Existing social and cultural institutions of resettlers and their hosts should be supported and used to the greatest extent possible, and resettlers should be integrated economically and socially into host communities. (6) The absence of a formal legal title to land by some affected groups should not be a bar to compensation; particular attention should be paid to households headed by women and other vulnerable groups, such as indigenous peoples and ethnic minorities, and appropriate assistance provided to help them improve their status. (7) As far as possible, involuntary resettlement should be conceived and executed as a part of the project. (8) ADB policy requirements pay special emphasis on extreme poor families, women headed families, and other vulnerable social groups. These vulnerable groups should be provided special assistance so that their current status could be improved. 4.3 Compensation Standards for Project 4.3.1 Compensation Qualification All the owners and users of the buildings and land in the area of project land acquisition demolition shall get reasonable compensation or help. County Demolition Office will issue Houses Demolition Proclamation and publicizes the relocaters, relocated areas and demolition time limit, etc. within 3 days after issuing Houses Demolition and Relocation License; and notifies the relative departments in written form to stop processing the following procedures within the relocated areas in relocation time limit. 1) Release the procedures of business license using demolished house as business place. 2) The procedures of trade, exchange, division, donation, transfer and mortgage, etc. of the demolished house, excepting the effective judgements and procedures executed for adjudication issued by People’s Court or arbitration institutions. 3) Examination and approval procedures of new-building, expansion, rebuilding and character changing of houses or auxiliaries.

66 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

In this project, the cut-off date regulated by the government is considered as the date of finally determining that it is in accordance with the compensation conditions. People affected by the project include those who will lose land and house due to the project construction. The compensation or rehabilitation will be processed according to their loss type and quantity, and whether the loss is within the final construction drawing finished within the time limit regulated by the government; or will be treated as being temporarily affected in the construction period. After the cut-off date, the newly developed cultivated land, built houses or moved in persons in the project affected area will not meet the compensation or subsidy conditions. 4.3.2 Principles of Compensation Rehabilitation 1) The RAP should be based on the social and economic survey and the statistics of the physical indices surveyed in the affected project area. It should also conform to the current national and local land acquisition laws and policies and policy of involuntary resettlement established by ADB. 2) The engineering design should be optimized in order to protect the land and minimize the impact by the land acquisition and resettlement. To minimize the number of involuntary relocatees, the project should avoid the areas with high population density and multi-storied buildings as much as possible. Better construction methods and other measures should be taken to reduce the disturbance to people. 3) All the compensations and resettlements for the involuntary relocatees should be a part of the project. In order to benefit the relocatee, sufficient funds should be available to them. 4) It should be ensured that all the affected persons’ loss caused by the project would be compensated before the remove. Reasonable resettlement and effective rehabilitation should be conducted and provide assistance for their temporary difficulties during transfer. 5) It should be ensure that, after the resettlement, the living conditions, productivity and income level of all affected persons could come back to or exceed the level without the project. 6) There is no deduction for depreciation or any kind of discount for house and other asset compensation, which should be based on replacement values. Compensation can be made in cash or in kinds (such as exchange of property rights). No matter by what means, the compensation should be enough to buy a house with similar structure and condition of the same size in the same area. The project sponsor has the responsibility to recommend affordable houses to the relocatees, and help them deal with the transactions (including some preferential benefits). 7) All the persons and buildings that are negatively affected by the project should be compensated. The compensation and help should not be canceled because of the incompleteness of residence register, lease and operation register. 8) No compensation or relocation could be given to the people who enters the project area and occupies any land or house beyond the deadline as stipulated. Anyone who refuses to sign the compensation for

67 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

relocation contract or refuses to remove after the contract was signed will be treated according to relevant judicial programs or laws. 9) Relocatees’ loss will be compensated during the moving and transfer process. The recommended host area should be provided with elementary basic infrastructure and service facilities. 10) Non-residential units’ loss caused by remove and suspension of business will be compensated. Reconstruction within the affected areas and relocation in outside area should conform to the planning requirements, as well as the second- remove should be avoided in the coming days. 11) Vulnerable group should be treated reasonably. The project sponsor should help them with choosing and moving their houses. 12) The owners of the infrastructure should be compensated. The compensation should be used for the reconstruction of affected infrastructure and rehabilitation of the function. 13) Land acquisition and the loss caused by land acquisition should be compensated reasonably. Compensation for land acquisition will be paid to the collective organization to develop the collective economy, improve the public facilities and provide rehabilitation to affected villagers. The resettlement subsidies will be paid to the resettlement sponsors or the resettled individuals to pay the insurance fee. 14) All the fees for land acquisition should be paid within three months after the compensation and resettlement program get approved. It should also be no later than the day the land is put into construction use. 15) Generally, the temporarily land acquisition should not be longer than two years. The user should restore the conditions of the occupied cultivated land within one year after its occupation. When the collective land is occupied, a temporary land acquisition contract should be signed between the temporary land occupier and the collective economic organization or the residential committee and compensation for temporary land acquisition should be paid. The temporary land acquisition compensation should cover the loss to the former owner and user of the land (including the agriculture taxes). The standard of compensation should be increased and the former user of the land should be resettled appropriately if the use purpose or property right of the land changes when it was returned. If the temporarily land acquisition exceeds two years, the acquisition procedure should be handled again. 16) In order to insure the living standards and income levels will not decrease, all the labor forces affected by the land acquisition and resettlement should be provided with employment opportunity. Rehabilitation by allocating replacement land is encouraged, supplemented by development of second and tertiary industries. The villagers can choose to find a job by oneself. 17) Encourage the relocatee to participate in the preparation of resettlement planning and the process of resettlement; let the relocatee know the compensation and resettlement policies and standards. It should widely collect opinions of the affected persons during survey, and incorporate them in the RP

68 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

report. 18) Seriously consider the complaints made by the affected person and help them with their difficulties and inconvenience in land acquisition and relocation reasonably and practically. The problems or dissatisfactions with the compensation standards should be resolved mainly through negotiation. If negotiation does not work, arbitration even a country appeal could be carried out. Any compulsive actions by the resettlement sponsor should conform to relevant laws. 19) Relative organizations should cooperate together to intensify the resettlement organizations at all levels and train all the staff that will go to duties. 20) In the process of the project, the County PMO is responsible for monitoring the interior implement of the project, hiring an independent organization to do the exterior monitoring and submitting the monitoring report to ADB periodically. Resettlement Assessment will be carried out after the project. 21) Any important changes made in the implement of resettlement (such as decreasing the compensation standards, changing the location or scale of the land acquisition for the project, new sub-project, changing any sub-project into a domestic invested one) should be reported to ADB in advance. If necessary, the resettlement planning can be revised or other resettlement can be prepared. 22) If other non-ADB project demolition occurs ahead or simultaneously in the ADB project area, the ADB project can take the advantage of other project under the condition that all the compensation and resettlement standards accord to the resettlement planning. 4.3.3 Compensation Reference and Standard for Land Acquisition 4.3.3.1 Permanent Land Acquisition of Project z Collectively Owned Land (1) Compensation Standards for Cultivated Land Acquisition 1) Analysis on Output Value of Cultivated Land According to the relevant provisions of XZBF [2005] No.47 document, A Notice by General Office of Hunan Provincial People’s Government about Issuing Land Requisition Annual Output Standards, the annual output of Zhangjiajie City is listed as follows: 1650 yuan/mu for paddy field of class I, 1400 yuan/mu for paddy field of class II; 1050 yuan/mu for dry farmland; 2600 yuan/mu for vegetable plot of class I, 2300 yuan/mu for special vegetable plot of class II. For Cili County, the annual output value of paddy field is 1525 yuan/mu (average of the annual output values of class I and class II), the annual output value of dry farmland is 1050 yuan/mu, and the annual output value of market vegetable plot is 2300 yuan/mu (standard for class II vegetable plot). According to the adjustment factor in Cili County (0.9), the per mu annual output of paddy field in Cili County is 1372.5 yuan/mu, that of dry farmland is 945 yuan/mu, and that of vegetable plot is 2070 yuan/mu. 2) Multiple of Land Compensation and Resettlement Subsidy

69 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

According to the relevant regulations from Land Administration Law, Land Acquisition and Resettlement Regulation for Large and Medium Water Resources and Hydro Project, and Methods of Hunan Province for Implementing the Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China, land compensation for the acquired cultivated land is 10 times of the average annual output value of the land per mu in the previous 3 years before land acquisition, and resettlement subsidy for each persons requiring economic rehabilitation is 6 times of the output value per mu. The young crops of less than one year growth period is compensated for according to output value of a season; and the cost of young crops is calculated as 40 percent of the annual output value according to farming system of the cultivated land in the project area. 3) Unit Price of Compensation According to annual output value of the cultivated land per mu in the project area as well as compensation multiple, the unit price of compensation is calculated as 22509 yuan per mu for paddy field, and 15498 yuan per mu for dry farmland. According to A Notice about Improving “Basket Project”(XZF[1993]No.25), the unit price of compensation for vegetable plot in Cili County, a county of region-level in Hunan Province, is calculated to be 38948 yuan/mu as the unit price of compensation for paddy field plus the new vegetable plot construction funds (5000 yuan/mu). (2) Compensation Standards for Flood Land Acquisition The compensation for flood land acquisition is calculated to be 9299 yuan/mu as per 60% of the compensation standards for dry farmland. (3) Compensation Standards for Garden land Acquisition According to the relevant regulations from Methods of Hunan Province for Implementing the Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China, the land compensation fee for garden land acquisition shall be 50 percent to 100 percent of compensation standards for the paddy field near the land. The resettlement subsidy shall be executed with reference to the regulations of the cultivated land. All the garden land requisitioned in this project is orange garden with bad varieties, which is used for self-supporting or local sale with a low price. According to investigation, analysis and calculation, the compensation fee for garden land acquisition will be calculated as per 60% of the standards for paddy field, the resettlement subsidy will be calculated as per 100% of the standards for paddy field, the compensation fee for timber forest will be calculated to be 3600 yuan/mu as per 60 trees per mu (60 yuan/tree). Based on this calculation, the compensation for garden land acquisition is 20070 yuan/mu. (4) Compensation Standards for Waste Land

70 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

According to the relevant regulations from Methods of Hunan Province for Implementing the Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China, the land compensation fee for expropriating waste mountains, wasteland and other unused land is 20 percent of the vicinal paddy field, and its resettlement subsidy is free from payment. Other land acquisition in this project is mainly the wasteland. No resettlement subsidy is paid, and what is only taken into consideration is the compensation fee for land acquisition. The unit price is set at 2745 yuan per mu according to 20 percent of the land compensation fee for paddy land. (5) Compensation Standards of Housing plot According to the relevant regulations from Methods of Hunan Province for Implementing the Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China, the land compensation fee for the villagers’ housing plots shall comply with compensation standards for the vicinal paddy field. If the villagers’ housing plots need to rebuild, the resettlement subsidy shall be paid according to the classification standard for the rebuilding sites. Rebuilding sites from the villagers’ housing plots in this project are mainly the dry farmlands, so the land compensation fee is 13,725 yuan per mu according to compensation standards for paddy field, whereas the resettlement subsidy is 8,235 yuan per mu based on compensation standards for dry farmland. Through this calculation, the unit price of the compensation fee for the villagers’ housing plots is 19395 yuan per mu. z State-owned Land 1) Compensation Standards of Enterprise’s Land The enterprise’s land to be acquired in this project is mainly the land used to handle official business and management, belonging to removed unit’s self-employed house property. According to location factor of the demolished houses, and through the consultation among Cili County PMO and affected work units as well as its department in charge, the compensation for enterprise’s land acquisition in this project shall be calculated as per 70 yuan/m2. Based on this calculation, the unit price of compensation for enterprise’s land acquisition is determined 46690 yuan/mu. For details of standards of permanent land acquisition in this project, see Table 4.3-1.

4.3.3.2 Temporary Land Acquisition in this Project The compensation fee for temporary land acquisition in this project includes the cost of young crops, compensation fee for land loss and the reclamation cost. Compensation fee for land loss is mainly used for compensating total amount of output or income of landowner from the original land, whereas the reclaiming expense is mainly used for reclaiming temporary land after occupation. Compensation fee for land loss is determined by the annual output value and occupation time of the land, whereas the reclamation cost is determined by actual expense of reclaiming. 1) The Unit Price of Temporary Land Acquisition Compensation According to materials provided by design organization, temporary construction site in this project is mainly the earth material site, which contains paddy field, dry farmland, and shrub land, with 2-year occupation time. The annual output value of paddy field is 1372.5 yuan/mu, and the cost of young crops is 549 according to 40 percent of the annual output value; the annual output value of dry farmland is 945 yuan/mu, and the cost of young crops is 378 yuan/mu according to 40 percent of the annual output value; the average annual output value of shrub land is 412 yuan/mu according to 30 percent of the vicinal paddy field. Based on this calculation, the unit price of temporary land acquisition is, respectively, 3294 yuan/mu for paddy field, 2268 yuan/mu for dry farmland, and 412 yuan/mu for shrub land. 2) The Expense of Reclaiming Temporary Land Acquisition Based on Temporary Land Rehabilitation Plan in the project, both the restoration engineering measures and plant measures of temporary construction site are included in the soil and water conservation

72 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

design. Only reclamation of the temporary dry farmland acquisition is planned in this report, and the reclaiming area is 90.7 mu. Based on analysis on the engineering volume and the unit price that is necessary to reclaiming per mu cultivated land of the earth material site, the expense of reclaiming cultivated land is 3439 yuan per mu through calculation. For details of analysis on the unit price of reclaiming cultivated land per mu, see Table 4.3-2.

4.3.4 The Relocation Compensation Reference and Standards for Residential House and Auxiliaries 1) Residential House The dwellers’ residential houses in project area are mainly rural houses and mostly brick concrete and brick wood structures. To constitute reasonably compensation standards to make relocated household

73 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

acquire the compensation equal to the replacement value, we investigated and analyzed the resettlement prices of brick concrete buildings and brick wood houses in the area affected by the project at the same time of investigating physical indices. The material consumption of house construction is determined by the relevant quota from Quota Manual of Architecture and Construction. Based on budgetary price of building materials in the fourth quarter of 2005 in Cili County, the price of materials is determined through analysis: the replacement value of rural residential brick concrete house is 309 yuan per square meter, and the unit price of compensation is determined to be 309 yuan per square meter; the replacement value of rural residential brick wood house is 239 yuan per square meter, and the unit price of compensation is determined to be 239 yuan per square meter. Considering the different rate of decoration and building materials of residential houses in the project area, compensation standards for residential house with various types of structure in this project can fluctuate within the range of ten percent or so, see Table 4.3-4 for details. In general, these compensation rates will be used by the resettlement office as lowest limit. The implemented compensation rates will be based on actual appraised values in the project areas, which will be higher than these compensation rates.

3) Compensation for Infrastructure Compensation for infrastructure mainly includes investment of resettlement housing plots, including leveling, and facilities construction such as water supply, electricity, and road access. According to resettlement plan, rural relocation households will mainly resettled dispersedly within their own village groups with better conditions of landform, road access, electricity, and water supply. The current

75 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

infrastructures in the resettlement site are well-developed. For all the resettlers in the new resettlement site, using existing water supply, power network and road access, the issue of providing related infrastructure could be solved. According to landform of resettlement site in this project area and with reference to other provincial similar projects, the project compensation fee for infrastructure such as site leveling, drinking facilities and lighting facilities is set at per capita 1500 yuan. 4) Moving and Transfer Allowance For resettlers affected by land acquisition relocation, although most of them will be relocated not far away, in the local region, it is inconvenience for rebuilding houses in such relative tight schedule, thus the moving and transfer allowance will include moving expense, living allowance, temporary housing allowance, second moving expenses, and so on. The transfer period is set at three months. ①Moving expense includes fares of vehicles boats, material transport cost, and material loss expense. Compensation fee is set at 100 yuan per person; ② Living allowance includes meal and lodging expenses as well as medical care during moving, and loss working time because of moving. Compensation fee is set at 100 yuan per capita; ③ Temporary housing allowance refers to paying temporary housing expenses by resettlers before their new houses are built. A large majority of the resettlers belong to non-rural population. They will have to rent the temporary residential houses, and the temporary housing allowance is set at 300 yuan per capita; ④ Second moving cost mainly refers to the cost of moving from temporary residential houses to their new houses. It is set at 100 yuan per person. 4.3.5 Compensation Reference and Standards for Affected Individuals Engaged in Small-scale Business According to investigation, most of 5 booths that need to be removed are non-special ones used for private inhabitation, mainly handling foodstuff and beverage, hardwares, etc. According to the relevant regulations from Zhangjiajie City Compensation and Resettlement Methods of Land Acquisition Demolition, demolition of houses both used for private inhabitation and business operation shall be resettled as residential houses, and the loss expenses of houses shall be listed into compensation for demolition of residential houses. In this project, the moving cost shall include cost of close down business and comprehensive freight during the course of transportation. The statistical work of operating income of individuals engaged in small-scale business is hard to conduct accurately. Therefore, with reference to the relevant regulations in Cili County, the lost earnings and employee wages due to shutdown of individual shops during the relocation in this project is calculated according to the area of business spaces. Compensation fee is set at 15 yuan per square meter • month, and shutdown time shall be not more than 3 months in

76 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

principle. The comprehensive freight and miscellaneous charges are 200 yuan for each unit with reference to other projects in Cili County. 4.3.6 Compensation Reference and Standard of Affected Enterprises and Institution 1) Non-residential houses In the project area, if most of the non-residential houses relocated are office buildings and workshops of enterprises and institutions, the compensation standard will comply with the standard of urban residential housing demolition. These compensation rates will be used by the resettlement office as the lowest limit. The implemented compensation rates will be based on actual appraised values in the project areas.

A contract will be signed between the relocatee and the project sponsor and resettlement implementation agency.The relocatee has the right to choose resettlement method and resettlement locations upon their willingness. 5.3.2 Principle and Procedure for Selecting Resettlement Sites 1) Principles The aim of rehabilitation of housing condition is to provide the relocated households with safe, convenient and graceful living environment. ① The new residential areas should have good terrain and geological conditions and reliable drinking water source. ② The location of new residential areas should be compatible with the economic rehabilitation plan. ③ The location of new residential areas should be convenient for production, living and management. ④ Save land, especially the cultivated land, as much as possible. ⑤ Take the future population increase into account and leave rooms for further development. ⑥ The distribution of houses in the residential areas should be based on the terrain conditions and take the lighting, ventilation, sanitation and greening conditions into account. ⑦ The design of houses should meet the requirements of the relocatees and their financial abilities. 2) Procedures Based on the above principles, after on-site investigation and analyzing the terrain, geological, traffic, power and water source conditions, the location of new residential area is selected after negotiation with representatives of relocatee and local government, taking the relocatees’ living and production conditions into account. 5.3.3 Planning of Demolition and Housing Wihin Cili County, 40 households with 135 persons (agricultural population) in four residential committees (villages) in Lingyang Town will be relocated due to project construction, with residential houses of 8623.2 ㎡ to be demolished. Among these 40 households, 7 of them have other real estate, so the demolition will make less impact on their normal livelihood. For these persons, they will be given

92 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

cash compensation based on compensation standard for their demolished houses. No rehabilitation is required. Other 33 households with 107 persons will be affected by project construction, and shall be relocated by building new houses. Table 5.3-1 shows the details bout resettlers affected by project demolition.

A total of 33 households with 107 rural relocatees needs new houses under the project, including 3 households with 10 persons in Shuang’an Village, 19 households with 68 persons in Taiping Village and 4 households with 7 persons in Yong’an Village. According to the relocatees’ wishes and the practical situations, all the rural resettlement people will be move-back and resettled locally in the village which they stayed in. According to the principle of unified planning, unified land acquisition and separate construction, they will be compensated with fees that is enough to build a house similar to the existing one and they are responsible to build their new house on the land arranged by the village. The land area used for rebuilding the house is 90m2 according to the existing national Land Administration Law, Implementation Methods for Land Administration in Hunan Province and Compensation Methods for Land Acquisition and Demolition in Cili County. Due to the different influence caused by the project construction differentiating from one village to another in the project area as well as the different resources structure and infrastructure conditions in each village, according to the villagers’ opinion, the actual situations and the principle of ‘convenient for production and easy to live’, each village should provide 1~2 different resettlement sites in which 3 to 8 households can be resettled. In addition, the villages should also provide necessary assistance in the process of house reconstruction and relocation. Based on the standard of land use, the standard of resettlement compensation and local custom, this project designed 4 types of house for the resettlers as samples. To rebuild their houses, the resettlers can choose one type of the house samples or design their house by themselves according to their wishes and economic situations. The details of house samples are shown in Figure 2.

5.3.4 Infrastructure and Public Facilities There is no special planning since the resettlement by means of move-back and resettle locally can rely on existing infrastructures and social service systems. For affected local infrastructure facilities, in addition to provide compensation and restore them to original conditions and functions, the local governments could also, according to the local economic situation and the principle of ‘Convenient for production and easy to live’, reasonably improve the facilities in the resettlement areas by providing additional funding or increasing the investment, making overall arrangement and constructing at the same time. 5.3.5 Assistance in Resettlement The land acquisition and resettlement implementation agency will be responsible for assisting resettlers at every aspect during the entire process of the resettlement: 1) Understand and try to satisfy the resettlers’ needs before the resettlement. 2) Help the resettlers dealing with their troubles such as arranging the vehicles and assisting the remove during the process of resettlement. 3) To know that whether resettlers satisfies with the living conditions in their new houses and where are their difficultoies and try to solve their problems in time after the resettlement. 5.3.6 Relocation Rehabilitation Plan for Resettlers’ Villages 1) Shuang’an Village of Lingyang Town Wenminglu Residential Committee is an administrative village subordinated to Lingyang Town of Cili County located in the south basnk of Lishui River, east of the county.

5.4 Economic Rehabilitation Planning for Resettlers 5.4.1 Economic Rehabilitation Tasks for Resettlers The planning for economic rehabilitation shall be conducted for the agricultural persons with their farmland lost due to land acquisition under the project. According to the investigation and statistics, 25 groups in 6 villages in Lingyang Town, Cili County, with 278 persons in 111 households affected will be affected by permanent land acquisition (see 2.3.1 (1) and (2) for detail). A total of 49.82mu farmlands will be permanently occupied by project, and hence 74 agricultural persons need economic rehabilitation. The resettlement plan is prepared based on the population to be relocated as actually investigated, not take the nature increase of population into account. For details about the agricultural population in each group to be resettlered by economic rehabilitation, see Table 5.4-1. 9 groups in 7 villages with 194 persons in 85 households will be affected by temporary land acquisition (see 2.3.1 (1) and (2) for detail). During the temporary land use period, the affected farmers can be

96 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

compensated year after year, and after temporary land acquisition, the occupied lands can be leveled and reclaimed by using land reclamation fee and be returned to the affected farmers. Therefore, the economic rehabilitation is unnecessary for temporary land acquisition under the project. 5.4.2 Economic Rehabilitation Objective for Resettlers The reconstruction and rehabilitation of production and livelihood is the key criteria to assess the feasibility of resettlement. In order to ensure that the livelihood of resettlers will not decrease, the rehabilitation and improvement of resettlers’ current net income per capita is the objective of resettlement planning. During December 2005 to January 2006, with the assistance of county PMO and government at each level, the resettlement design unit investigated the affected farmers on their household properties, income and expenditure conditions, and listed the information household by household. According to the analysis on the income and expenses of agricultural family, in 2005, the annual net income in project area was RMB 2038yuan. In project area, during 2002~2005, the mean annual growth rate in rural area was 4.2%. The resettlement implementation plan of the project will be launched in the end of 2007, and the net income standard for rural resettlers will be RMB 2308 yuan in 2007. In order to guarantee that the resettlers will reach or exceed their former living standard after relocation, the net income per capita on average must reach or exceed 2308 yuan. 5.4.3 Economic Rehabilitation Strategy According to the agricultural means of production status and local agricultural production level in project area, the input and output level analysis has been conducted for the economic rehabilitation project for resettlers in project area. The economic rehabilitation strategy was established. For those village groups with sufficient land holdings after land acquisition (8 village groups out of 11 with per capita land holding being 0.5 mu or more after land acquisition), land readjustment will be carried out, which will ensure adequate landholding will be available for all affected persons. Following land readjustment, for those village groups with sufficient land holding and market conditions for vegetable greenhouse development, greenhouse vegetable will be developed for economic rehabilitation, which is based on rehabilitation of one person by developing each greenhouse with 0.25 mu of land area. A total of 5.25 mu of greenhouse vegetable will be developed and provide rehabilitation for 21 persons. For those village groups with limited landholding and experience in animal husbandry activities, development of animal husbandry activities will become part of economic rehabilitation stragegy. The basic investment standard for providing each person of rehabilitation through animal husbandry will be based on degree of land loss among affected people, averaging about RMB 10,000 per person.

5.4.4 Environmental Capacity Analysis The environmental capacity of resettlement area is refers to the number of resettlers that an area can support and absorb with normal economic and ecological sustainability. The scope of this investigation on resettlement’s environmental capacity is based on the rehabilitation scheme that is proposed in Resettlement Plan. As majority of the farmland in project areas have been in possession of others, the agricultural populations who finally need rehabilitation by land have to share original land resources with residents in the same villages, and are guaranteed to get mutual benefit with local residents. To achieve this objective, a series of measures should be taken to increase agricultural income, such as increase investment on agriculture, improve fertility of field, change variety of crops, transform low-yield fields and change dry farm lands into paddy fields. The analysis on the change of land holding among affected villages and groups (Table 5.4.1) indicates: 5 affected villages need economic rehabilitation, whose farmland per capita will be reduced from 0.63 mu/person to 0.62 mu after land acquisition, with average reduction of 0.01 mu/person decreased or proportion of 2.08%. Among the 11 groups of 5 villages affected by land acquisition, those with average farmland over 0.5 mu/person amount to 8 groups in 5 villages, namely the 13th and 15th groups in Shuang’an Village, the 2nd group in Beigang Village, Taiping Village, 2nd Group in Jintai Village, and Anzui, Xinjie, Yong’an and Changling Groups in Yong’an Village. Among them, the 15th group in Shuang’an Village has the most remaining farmland, averaging 0.87 mu/person. Among these affected groups, a large number of farmlands are in low yield because of low investment, lack of management, poor soil fertility, simple crop, and incomplete irrigation facilities. Therefore by fully utilizing potential of existing farmland, it is feasible to improve the level of production and the unit yield and achieve the objective of rehabilitation. The measures, including increasing investment on low yield field, improving soil fertility, adjusting farming system, replanting improved crops variety, building irrigation facilities, and reinforcing field management, shall be adopted to full exploitation for the potential in increase of production level and unit area yield of current cultivated land, so as to reach the resettlement target value. However there are 2 groups (in 2 villages) among 11 affected groups (in 5 villages) with their average farmland below 0.5 mu per person after land acquisition. Among them, 15th group in Shuang’an Village has the largest reduction with 7.24% of loss, with the land holding being 0.19 mu/person; while the 2nd Group in Shuang’an Village has the lowest per capita land holding after land acquisition, or 0.36 mu/person, with reduction being 2.17%. There is small quantity of occupied farmlands, but with relatively large percent of reductions. The main reasons for such situation are: all these villages are located in the urban planning area of Cili County and in recent years most of farmland among these

99 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

villages had been acquired following the rapid development and expansion of Cili County. Since for those agricultural populations who need rehabilitation by farmland, they have to share limited land resources with residents in the affected villages, the limited land holding makes it hard to guarantee mutual benefit for both resettlers and local residents. Concerning this, other related measures should be carried out to provide economic rehabilitation for those village groups with per capita farmland below 0.5 mu/person after land acquisition, which include providing cash compensation to the affected persons for other economic activities development (such as production structure adjustment, green house vegetables development) or non-agricultural economic development (such as animal husbandry development), so as to increase their income, as well as improve their poverty situation. 5.4.5 Economic Rehabilitation Planning During December 2005 to January 2006, the resettlement design unit and the county PMO, together with the relevant department, conducted the on-site survey on the project affected land, water surface, and other natural resources. In the course of resettlement planning and project impact investigation, the consultation meeting with the project affected township (sub-district), village cadres, and some resettler representatives have been held, and the economic rehabilitation schemes for resettlers was discussed. Through the analysis on the geographic locations, land resources ownership, income structure of local residents, and based on the extensive consultation with the resettlers, the overall economic rehabilitation scheme was developed as follows: in-group adjust cultivated land for 29.1 mu to resettle 42 persons; develop the greenhouse vegetable for 5.25mu to resettle 21 persons; and develop the animal husbandry for resettling 11 persons. See Table 5.4-2 for details of resettlement economic rehabilitation in groups. Planning of Resettlement by Economic Rehabilitation in Cili County Table 5.4-2

1) Adjust Cultivated Land Within the Affected Groups According to survey, 5 villager groups affected by project in project area would like to choose the economic rehabilitation mode of re-allocating the cultivated land in the group. The land acquisition impact is not evenly affected within these village groups. The cultivated land per capita after land acquisition is between 0.36 mu per person ~ 1.64 mu per person. The affected villagers are accustomed to make a living on the farmland, and lack other skills of making a living, they would like to keep their traditional production mode and means of living. In the overall project planning, there are 29.1mu cultivated land will be adjusted within the villager group to reselle 42 resettlers. After adjustment of cultivated land, the cultivated land per person in this group will be reduced slightly. In order to keep relocatees’ income level increasing as other villagers’, it is necessary to develop further potential capacity of the remaining cultivated land. By following the principle of making up shortage of quantity with improved quality, the yield and output value of the remaining cultivated land will be enhanced. The cultivated land in the project scope are mainly located along the river, which are are often inundated by flood, the actual yield is considerably low, and the flood standards will be improved after project implementation. In this project, together with the implementation of agricultural structure adjustment, some agricultural technicians shall be invited to provide agricultural technique training for rural relocatees and to guide them to adopt the measures of “improving low yield land and changing dry farmland into paddy field”. As a result, the unit output value and the cultivated land capacity could be improved, which means that under land readjustment among affected village groups, all affected persons could have successful economic rehabilitation and resotred their income and livelihood.

101 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

2) Development of Greenhouse Vegetable In the project affected scope, even though the amount of cultivated land to be acuired in 2nd Group and 13th Group in Shuang’an Village and Xinjie Group in Yong’an Village is relatively small, they account large proportion of land holding in these two village groups. According to the selection of most relocatees in these groups, the affected families shall be rehabilitated with cash compensation rather than cultivated land adjustment. The affected families will use the compensation fee to develop greenhouse vegetable, which can meet the urban residents’ requirement of Cili County and also enable the relocates to increase their income through vegetable production. For the whole project planning, there are 5.25 mu land to be used for developing the counter season and organic greenhouse vegetables, which could provide economic rehabilitation for 21 persons. 3) Animal Husbandry According to the investigation, animal husbandry activity is one of the pillar industries in the local rural areas, and the villagers have strong enthusiasm and extensive experience in pig, chicken farm and duck breeding, and the products have a good sale. Considering the higher sale price of poultry meat and wide feed resource in the project region, the resettlers agree to develop animal husbandry activities under current favourable situation . For 2 village groups, namely 2nd Group in Shuang’an Village and Yongxin Group in Yong’an Village in the project area, even though amount of farmland acquired is relatively small, they account for large portion of their land holding. According to the choices by most resettlers, the cash compensation will be adopted instead of carrying out farmland adjustment. The cash compensation will be paid directly to the affected farmers in Yongxin Group (in Yong’an Village). Considering less farmland per capita in 2nd Group in Shuang’an Village and great impact on farmers due to land acquisition, it is proposed to set aside some of village owned forest land in Shuang’an Village for farmers’ rehabilitation purpose. Based on the principle of saving lands, it is planned to develop the animal husbandry with these compensation fees for economic rehabilitation. It is proposed to establish and enlarge 2 small-sized breeding farms in 2 affected groups for resettling 11 persons. The pig breeding and chicken breeding industries will take the main position of the livestcok breeding, and the EA will invite some experts to conduct trainings on the animal husbandry, so as to provide guides on scientific breeding and selection of salable varieties. As the resettlement scheme of the project area is determined based on the opinions of most resettlers, some resettlers will disagree with the proposed resettlement scheme for their village and group, and other modes shall be adopted. The PMO will try best to coordinate and settle the problems. If the resettlers have their own approaches for income generations, namely, they have fixed operation sites in other places, applicable operation skills and production equipment, or relatively steady income resources, or they accept cash compensation and they want to find jobs by themselves, after the EA

102 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

verifies if they completely meet the self-employed conditions, and they will sign the resettlement agreement, receive the notarial certificate and go through other procedures during the project implementation process, the resettlement subsidies and land compensation will be directly paid to the self-employed persons. For the groups and villages need cash compensation, if individual resettlers want to undertake agricultural production, the EA will help them obtain land, and make them to continue agricultural production. 5.4.6 Resettlement Villages Planning 5.4.6.1 Shuang’an Village of Lingyang Town 1) Current State Shuang’an Village is an administrative village subordinated to Lingyang Town of Cili County located in the south bank of Lishui River, east of the county. The village borders on Lingxi Village of Lingyang Town in the east, the County in the west, the Seed Multiplication Farm in the south and Pipa Village in the north. There are village-grade highways between all villages and the communication is very convenient. The whole village is composed of 16 villager’s groups and has 1,409 households with 5,000 persons, among which 2,910 are agricultural population and the rest 2,190 are non-agricultural population. The net income of per capita was RMB 2,410 yuan in 2005. 518 households with the proportion of 30% in the village engage in the second and third industries such as catering, clothing, goods, etc. The proportion of labor force in the village is 60%, among which 125 persons are working outside mainly in the Guangdong, Wenzhou, etc., engaging in the industries such as construction, timber processing, shoe making, electronics etc. The agriculture in Shuang’an Village focuses on vegetable planting. The total cultivated land is 3,017 mu, of which 1,587 mu of dry farmland and 330 mu of commercial vegetable land, and the current per capita cultivated land is 0.58 mu. 2) Impact by Land Requisition The project will requisition 26.17 mu of cultivated land in the village, of which 25.37 mu of dry farmland and 0.8 mu of commercial vegetable land. The per capita cultivated land after land acquisition is 0.54 mu, 0.04 mu less than that before land acquisition. The decrease proportion of cultivated area after land acquisition is 6.1%. For the details of the cultivated land acquisition, see the table 5.4-3.

5.4.8 Forecast of Economic Income Level Resettlement production development means to combine resettlement with project construction, resource exploitation, soil and water conservation and economic development and make resettlement production reach or exceed original living condition step by step. Planning scheme of production development is brought out on the basis of natural and social economic characters of project region and collecting opinions of resettlers. Analysis of output benefit for each rehabilitation scheme is presented in the followings. 1) Green house vegetables: The production cost of normal year of each green house vegetable is 1160 yuan per year (including operation cost and technical service charge) and each green house can yield 3000 kg of counter season vegetables. Each green house can add RMB 2100 yuan of profit per year which is beyond the per capita net income of RMB 2038 yuan in project region if the

112 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

profit of vegetable per kg is calculated as RMB 1.1 yuan and cost and alternative land profit are deducted (the alternative land profit is RMB 154 yuan if the annual production value of dryland is RMB 616 yuan per mu and each greenhouse occupies 0.25 mu). 2) Animal husbandry: According to the investigation, RMB 550 yuan of all kinds of costs are needed for raising each pig and the net profit for selling each pig is RMB 250 yuan. The income can reach RMB 2250 yuan if each person can raise 9 pigs per year. Because RMB 10 yuan of all kinds of costs are needed for each chicken and the net profit of each chicken is RMB 9 yuan, the income can reach RMB 2160 yuan if each person can raise 240 chickens per year. The above incomes are all beyond the per capita net income of RMB 2038 yuan. Table 5.4-10 shows the analysis of input and output of animal husbandry activities in details.

7.5 Women Participation From the start of the project, a great effort has been made on the function of women by the implementation institution of the project and local government. Concern women and families where women are the householder and bring women into play in the process of implementation of resettlement plan. In the affected area, women’s rights, interests and status should be the same as that of men. Women play an important role in economic development activities and housework. Especially in the country, most women stay at home, more men go into the city to find jobs. So besides family responsibility women play an important role in tilling and non-farm work. So in the area affected by the project, women will pay more attention to the project than women, they not only take part in every stage of work of resettlement but also give fineness rein to the direction and method of resettlement.

In order to establish good relationship between them, the following work should be done: 1) Before removal, resettlers and residents in the resettlement area should take part in the

133 Cili County Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hunan Province Hydro and Power Design Institute

resettlement planning. If you want to get cooperation, participation and feedback opinions of resettlement area and resettlers, introduce to them their rights and schemes they can choose. They can have their own choice from a number of resettlement schemes. They can consult with them directly or define through formal or informal leaders and representatives. In most conditions, do some system arrangement such as project official holds regular meetings with local groups so that resettlers and residents in the resettlement area can show their opinions in the whole period of planning and implementation of the project. Must make effort to see that vulnerable populations express their opinions adequately. 2) Try to decrease the impact on the residents in resettlement area.

9. Environment Protection and Management

9.1 The Necessity of Environment Protection The environment evaluation of main body of resettlement investment project shall include the impact of resettlement on the environment. The planning of resettlement shall be conducted with environment evaluation. It is necessary to demarcate the line of resettlement area and calculate the increment of population density in unit area. In agricultural project, if the number of the resettlers is larger than the original number of this resettlement area, the aggravating environment problems will come along, such as deforestation, excessive depasturing, the water and soil loss and the pollution of the hygienic conditions etc. Therefore, appropriate eased measures (including the training of resettlers) shall be included in the resettlement planning, besides other resettlement places can also be chosen. And the urban resettlers will cause the relevant problems related to the population density (such as communication capacity, drinking-water source, hygienic system and medical & healthy treatment etc.). Constructive environmental management methods can supply both good opportunities and benefits to the resettlers and the residents in the resettlement area. If the resettlement causes an unacceptable consequence, we must find another resettlement site or add the resettlement points.

9.2 Liquidation of Relocation All kinds of rubbish, which are produced during the demolition of the various buildings and their attachments within the project range shall all be spoiled in the place designated by the Cili County Environmental Hygiene Administration. The houses and their attachments within the project range shall be demolished; their walls shall be torn down and leveled. And the interior pollution source within the project range shall be removed and disinfected. The existing wastewater of the industrial enterprises within the project range shall be drained off according to the stipulations. Poisonous waste slag shall be delivered to the appointed place and buried. And the warehouse used for storing the chemical materials shall be treated by poison elimination and neutralisation, so that the soil can meet the hygiene standard.

9.3 The Environment Management of the Resettlement Area The environment protection shall be fully considered during the planning and construction of resettlement area, we shall try our best to make the surroundings beautiful and comfortable.

11.8 Balance between Resettlement Budget and Production Investment According to the relevant resettlement articles written as follows: “Land compensation fee and resettlement subsidies are used by the units with land acquired for production rehabilitation and development, and arranging the employment for the surplus labor forces caused by the land acquisition and livelihood subsidies for people incapable for work. It can also be contracted to the county (city) and be unifiedly allocated by the county (city) for land exploitation, resettlers’ production and livelihood resettlement for resettlers. But these special funds must be specially used. The funds shall not be privately shared or used for other purposes.” In case that the land compensation and resettlement subsidies cannot meet the requirements of resettlers’ production and resettlement, the resettlement subsidies can be increased according to the situation. Therefore, the land compensation fee and resettlement subsidies, as the only fund resource of the resettlers’ production and resettlement, must be equal to or a little more than the total investment of production resettlement. According to the resettlers’ production resettlement planning, the required production resettlement population in this project is involved with 74 persons. The investment on production development project totals up to RMB 0.8603 million yuan (see Table 5.4-6 for details). The permanent collective land acquisition compensation fee in the project area is RMB 1.1121 million yuan in total, RMB 0.2518 million yuan more than the required investment on production resettlement of agricultural population, which is a little more than the investment required for its production resettlement. This indicates that the land compensation standard is relatively suitable, and can meet the fund requirement of resettlers’ production resettlement. The fund margins can be unitedly used for continuous development by each village group, such as launching village-owned enterprises, land resources development and used as fund investment for other projects as improving low-yield farmland and converting dry farmland to paddy fields, etc., so as to ensure the resettlers’ living standard to reachs or exceed their original standard.

11. 9 Annual Fund Use Plan The yearly investment plan of each resettlement compensation fee is worked out on the basis of resettlement progress arrangement. The annual fund use plan is arranged as follows: for the first year, RMB 4.15 million yuan, accounting for 42.5% of the total investment; for the second year, RMB 3.3 million yuan, accounting for 33.8% of total investment; for the third year, RMB 2.32 million yuan, accounting for 23.7% of total investment. For details of yearly fund use plan, see Table 11.9-1.

1. Project Background The areas in Hunan Province, which are brought into this urban flood control project, are limited to the cities above county grade in hilly sections with relatively serious flood disaster. All the cities are considered as the areas with developed economy, dense population and centralized wealth. If the cities are submerged, the loss will be great, and the economic development will be supportless. At present, the urban flood control standard in the project area is low. Flood disaster happens in successive years, seriously restricts the urban economic development and affects the live and property safety of urban people. For Cili County, as the sub-project city of the urban flood control project under ADB loans, its flood and waterlogging control capacity can be absolutely improved through the project implementation. The flood control standard will be enhanced from the current 2-year occurrence to 20-year occurrence; and the waterlogging control will be enhanced from the current 2-or-5-year occurrence to 10-year occurrence. That can greatly reduce the urban flood control burden of Cili County and benefit the normal social development. The main engineering measures involved in land acquisition and relocation of Cili County Urban Flood Control Project are: reinforcing and new-building of embankment, re-new, reconstruction and new-building of culvert sluices and power allocation station, and there also is temporary land acquisition as project construction site and borrow area, etc. The areas in the project land acquisition, with the residents’ production and living seriously affected by the project construction, are considered as the affected areas of the project land acquisition and relocation. The final land acquisition and relocation range may be partially adjusted with the deepening of the designed depth. However, due to detailed survey conducted, such adjustment will be very limited and final scope of impact figures will not expect any major changes. 2. Project Affected Area and Quantity According to the investigation, the project land acquisition and relocation affect 8 villages (residential committees) and 26 villager’s groups in Lingyang Town of Cili County. In which, there are various project land acquisition of 149.36 mu (including cultivated land area of 49.82mu, occupying 33.74%); project temporary land acquisition of 283.13 mu (including dry farmland of 36.6 mu, paddy field of 54.1 mu, garden field of 83.15 mu, flood land of 24.3 mu, wasteland of 84.98 mu); project relocated residential and non-residential houses of 10499.2m2 (including brick concrete structure of 8617.26m2, occupying 82.08%, brick wood structure of 1629.9m2, occupying 5.86%, simple structure of 370.75m2, occupying 15.52%). The number of resettlement families affected by relocation is 33 households. 3. Resettlement Plan
