A. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY i. The Sustainable Power Sector Support II Project (The Project) is comprised of various components including the construction of new substations, upgrading of existing substations, construction of new transmission lines, strengthening of new circuits, installation of machinery and equipment, among other things, with the financial assistance of the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The Government of Sri Lanka’s (GoSL) Ministry of Power and Energy (MoPE) is the Executing Agency (EA), whilst the Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) is the Implementing Agency (IA) for the transmission and distribution components. Additionally, Sri Lanka’s Sustainable Energy Authority (SLSEA) is the IA for the Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy components. The proposed project will assist GoSL to develop economically viable and environmentally and socially sustainable project components: (i) transmission system strengthening to further improve energy efficiency and enable rural electrification; (ii) rural distribution system improvement in the Eastern and Uva Provinces to increase grid access and rural household connections to impoverished areas, many of which have been affected by conflict in recent years; and (iii) energy efficiency and renewable energy component. ii. The Resettlement Plan (RP) for the Sustainable Power Sector Support II Project has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009, the GoSL’s National Involuntary Resettlement Policy (NIRP),2001 and the Land Acquisition Act (LAA) of 1950 (with amendments). The RP describes the level of impact caused by land acquisition due to the construction of the subproject components and identifies the compensation and rehabilitation measures for Affected Persons (AP). iii. Minimum land acquisition is required for the Project which is expected in one substation site. An assessment of land acquisition and resettlement has been carried out for the Project and its components. Physical displacement is not required for the transmission, distribution or energy efficiency components. The grid substations proposed for the project will mainly be built on existing government land. The substation at Vavunativu1 is the only facility that will require the acquisition of 2 Hectares (Ha) of private land, amounting to approximately 4% of the landowner’s land hold. The construction of transmission lines will not entail land acquisition or resettlement impacts. However, temporary impacts are foreseen on crops during the implementation and construction of the Project. A preliminary assessment has been carried out to calculate the approximate area of land to be considered for crop compensation due to the likely construction of the transmission lines. The assessment suggests that up to 302 Ha of private agricultural land could be temporarily affected due to damages caused to crops during the construction phase. This could potentially affect approximately 325 households, who own land along this stretch. iv. Consultations were held with relevant Government officials (CEB, MoPE, SLSEA, Land Department etc) during the Project planning and preparation phase. Consultations were also carried out with Project affected peoples and other interested stakeholders in the local community. Focus Group Discussions (FGD) were conducted with the local community at 46 locations with a total of 405 participants across different project locations. Timely information will be disseminated to Project affected stakeholders during the disclosure of resettlement planning documents. Resettlement information leaflets, containing information on compensation, entitlements and resettlement management provisions adopted by the Project, will be made available to affected stakeholders in the local language (Sinhalese). A summary of the RP and a copy of the entitlement matrix will be translated into the local language; and made available to affected stakeholders at CEB offices. The RP will also be disclosed on the EA/IA and ADB websites. Consultations with project affected stakeholders will be ongoing through out the entire project cycle as necessary. v. A grievance mechanism (GM) will be implemented to address any project-related concerns of APs. Grievances will first be first redressed as per the Public Utilities Commission of Sri Lanka (PUCSL) Act. Grievances not addressed as per the standard PUCSL Act will be brought to the Grievance Redress Committee (GRC). The GRC will consist of representatives from the APs, CEB, SLSEA, MoPE, Divisional Secretary, Land Officer under each Divisional Secretary, field level staff, and local community. The GRC will meet on a monthly basis (if grievances are brought to the Committee) to determine the merit of each grievance, and resolve grievances within a month of receiving the complaint. Unresolved grievances will be referred to a court of Law for redressal. vi. The policy framework and entitlements for the Project are based on the GoSL’s Land Acquisition Act (LAA), 1950, the National Involuntary Resettlement Policy (NIRP), 2001 (NRRP); and ADB’s Safeguards Policy Statement 2009. Based on the above policies, the following core involuntary resettlement principles

1 Advance action is being taken further by CEB where in CEB is currently in the process of getting a government land for Vavunativu substation following which there will be no requirement for private land acquisition and hence no resettlement impact will be occurred. Draft – August 2010 Page 1 Sustainable Power Sector Support II Project SRI 39415 have been adopted for the Project: (i) land acquisition and other involuntary resettlement impacts will be avoided or minimized by exploring all viable alternative project / component designs; (ii) time-bound resettlement plans (RPs) will be prepared and milestones and assistance will be provided to APs to ensure that they’re standard of living and livelihoods are maintained or improved as a result of the Project; (iii) ensure ongoing consultation with APs on compensation issues; timely disclosure of resettlement information; and inclusive participation of APs through out the planning and implementation phases of development; (iv) vulnerable and disadvantaged groups, including women headed households, will be provided with special assistance; (v) APs, including non-titled persons (e.g., informal dwellers/squatters, and encroachers), will be compensated for lost assets at replacement rates; (vi) compensation payments and resettlement assistance will be settled before the contractor acquires and takes possession of any land and prior to the commencement of construction activities; (vii) provision of income restoration and rehabilitation; and (viii) establishment of an appropriate grievance redress mechanism. All APs identified in the project-impacted areas within the specified cut-off date (30 June 2010) will be entitled to compensation for their affected assets, and rehabilitation measures. APs who settle in the affected areas after the cut-off date will not be eligible for compensation. The project will recognize both titleholders and non-titleholders.

The resettlement cost estimate for this subproject includes eligible compensation, resettlement assistance and support costs for the implementation of the RP. CEB and SLSEA will arrange in advance to allot the required budget to meet the costs associated with land acquisition and resettlement resulting from this Project. The total land acquisition and resettlement cost for the Project is estimated at LKR 9.54 million. viii. MoPE will be the Executing Agency (EA). CEB will be the Implementing Agency (IA) for the transmission strengthening and rural electrification components and two sub-components of energy efficiency and renewable energy (reactive power management and the Moragolla hydropower plant detailed design). SLSEA will implement the remaining energy efficiency and renewable energy sub-components. CEB has ongoing ADB-financed projects and will use the existing project management structure complemented by additional staff dedicated exclusively to implementing the proposed Project. Project Implementation Units (PIUs), including experienced staff headed by senior officers will be set up in CEB and SLSEA to undertake day-to-day project planning, implementation, and management activities. All land acquisition, resettlement, and compensation will be completed before the start of civil works. All land required for the Project will be provided free of encumbrances to the contractor prior to handing over the sub- project sites and the start of civil works. The RP implementation schedule is tentatively calculated as one year. Monitoring will be the responsibility of the EA (MoPE) and IAs (CEB and SLSEA) through it’s PIU. The PIU will prepare monthly monitoring reports and will submit regular updates to the ADB.

B. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

1. Overview 1. The Sustainable Power Sector Support Project II (The Project) includes various components including the construction of new substations, upgrading of existing substations, construction of new transmission line, strengthening of new circuits, installation of machinery and equipment, among other things, with the financial assistance of the Asian Development Bank (ADB). The project supports sector reforms, strengthening of transmission and distribution infrastructure and grid. The Government of Sri Lanka’s (GoSL) Ministry of Power and Energy (MoPE) is the Executing Agency (EA), whilst the Ceylon Electricity Board (CEB) is the Implementing Agency (IA) for the transmission and distribution components. Additionally, Sri Lanka’s Sustainable Energy Authority (SLSEA) is the IA for the Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy components.

2. The proposed project is consistent with Sri Lanka's national and sector priorities. The Government's main goals are to improve the quantity, quality, and cost of service delivery, and to increase electricity connections in rural areas. The proposed project is also consistent with ADB's Sri Lanka Country Partnership Strategy (CPS). To help the Government achieve the above-mentioned goals, the CPS focuses, among other things, on (i) mitigating climate change through financing individual clean energy projects, including small and medium-scale hydro, (ii) funding transmission projects to remove grid constraints on absorbing additional capacity from renewable energy sources and achieving energy-efficiency improvements through strengthening of the transmission network, and (iii) improving connectivity for the poor.

3. This is a Resettlement Plan2 (RP) prepared for the Sustainable Power Sector Support II Project which is in accordance with the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS), 2009 GoSL’s National Involuntary Resettlement Policy (NIRP), 2001 and the Land Acquisition Act (LAA) of 1950 with amendments. The RP contains the extent of impact caused by land acquisition due to the construction of the subprojects and identifies and defines the compensation and rehabilitation requirements for Affected Persons (AP) which is, in this particular case, primarily economic displacement due to minimum land acquisition expected in one substation which will require the acquisition of less than 10% of land hold of one household. The RP is based on the engineering design and has been prepared in due consultation with project stakeholders. Attempts have been made by the engineering team during the design stage to minimize land acquisition and resettlement by adopting mitigation measures; i.e., selection of suitable sites.

2. Project Components 4. The proposed project will assist the GoSL to effectively implement the following project components: (i) transmission system strengthening to further improve energy efficiency and enable rural electrification; (ii) rural distribution system improvement in the Eastern Province and other outlying regions to expand rural household connections to the poor; and (iii) energy efficiency and renewable energy component. The transmission component will include strengthening of the system in the Southern, Eastern, and Northern parts of the country. It will enable the GoSL to address post-conflict areas electricity needs and bring cheaper hydropower to the population in the Northern and Eastern parts of the country from the North Central and Central Provinces through various transmission lines and substations. Details relating to the subproject components are provided below. The project area of influence is depicted in Figure 1. Detailed description of each project components is provided in Annexure-1. i. Transmission System Strengthening 5. The component will contribute to a reliable, adequate and affordable power supply that will contribute to sustainable economic growth and poverty reduction in the Eastern and Southern Provinces. The strengthened transmission system will alleviate existing sub-standard voltage conditions in the Ampara District and provide increased load capacity in both the Eastern and Southern Provinces leading to improved efficiency and reliability in power supply. The component includes the following sub-projects:

 New Galle Power Transmission Development Project Construction of New Galle 3 x 31.5 MVA 132/33 kV Substation and Ambalangoda to New Galle 40 km double circuit 132 kV transmission line:  North East Power Transmission Development Project: Construction of Mahiyangana to Vavunativu (via Ampara) 129 km double circuit 132 kV transmission line; Monaragala to Madagama

2 The project is categorised as B as the impact on Involuntary Resettlement is insignificant. Resettlement is insignificant when less than 200 people experience major “impacts” defined as involving AP being physically displaced from housing and/or having 10% or more of their productive, income generating assets lost. Resettlement having insignificant IR impact is categorised as B which requires a - resettlement plan. Draft – August 2010 Page 1 Sustainable Power Sector Support II Project SRI 39415

C. SCOPE OF LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT

7. A census survey was carried out using the structured questionnaire (Annexure-2) for the permanent impact especially for the private land acquisition in the months of April - June 2010. All the project sites were visited and assessed for the IR impacts. The survey team was trained by the international resettlement specialist and the survey was closely monitored on a regular basis. The census survey included various aspects such as (i) assessment of land including quantity and typology (ii) Inventory of physical assets; (iii) potential income loss; (iv) impact on trees; (v) household characteristics, including social, economic and demographic profile and (vi) presence of informal settlers and non-titleholders.

1. Impact on Permanent Land Acquisition 8. Minimum land acquisition is required for the Project. An assessment of land acquisition and resettlement has been carried out for the Projects and each of its components. None will require physical displacement of affected peoples. This is common of projects that include transmission, distribution and energy efficiency components, as transmission lines require small areas of land, are generally located on existing government land, distribution lines are fixed along roads or existing easements and along roads given their isolated and small footprints. Construction of grid substations usually require small land parcel and land acquisition. The grid substations under the project will mostly be constructed on government land. The project will involve the construction of five new sub stations. Four out of five substations are proposed either on government or CEB land (Galle, Monaragala, Polonnaruwa, and Ampara). There is only one substation at Vavunativu6 which is proposed on private land for which 2 Hectares (Ha) of land will need to be acquired. This HH does not belong to an indigenous peoples group (IP) or to an ethnic minority. The impact is limited as the amount of land required for acquisition is very small compared to the total land holding of the HHs. According to the census survey, it is revealed that the percentage of loss is only 4% compared to the total land holding (Total land holding is 125 acres and the affected land is only 5 acres). However, the HH falls under the vulnerable category as it is a woman headed HH for which additional compensation provision has been made in the entitlement matrix. There are no structures and no trees found to be affected inside the land parcel. The land is privately owned agricultural land which does not have any share cropper or tenant. The total annual income of the HH is LKR 200,000 which shows that the HH does not fall below the poverty line. Therefore, this is considered to be an economically displaced HHs and the total numbers of economically displaced persons are two, one male and one female member.

2. Temporary Impact on Loss of Crop/Trees 9. The construction of transmission lines will not require land acquisition nor will it cause resettlement impacts. However, temporary impacts are foreseen on crop damage during the implementation and construction of the project activities. Efforts will be made to schedule the construction activities during the off season cultivation period. The compensation will be paid in cash before the construction activities begin except in cases where dispute of ownership arises which shall be settled before making the payment. A walkover survey was carried out on a sample basis. Additionally an assessment has been made to calculate the approximate area of land to be considered for crop compensation due to the likely construction of transmission lines. As per the assessment, approximately 302 HA of private agricultural land will be temporarily affected considering the loss of crop during the construction which will have approximately 325 HHs. The distribution and energy efficiency will neither have permanent and temporary impacts on land acquisition and resettlement. The summary details on the assessment of land acquisition and resettlement for each project components are described in Table 2

6 Advance action is being taken further by CEB where in CEB is currently in the process of getting a government land for Vavunativu substation following which there will be no requirement for private land acquisition and hence no resettlement impact will be occurred.

7 The calculation to assess the area to be considered for crop loss under transmission lines is based on current assumptions. It should be noted that the detailed route survey will clearly demarcate the tower footings and right of way which is done prior to the commencement of civil works. The Right of Way has been considered as 30 metres and the total length of each transmission line has been multiplied by the proposed RoW width which gives the total area to be covered under the transmission lines. In Sri Lanka, 30% 0f the land is used for productive activities/cultivation (agriculture). The average land holding size per household in Sri Lanka is approximately 0.93 Ha (less than a Hectare). The total area of the calculated agricultural land is divided by the average land holding size which gives the approximate numbers of households to be temporarily affected due to the temporary loss of crop.

D. SOCIOECONOMIC INFORMATION AND PROFILE

10. In addition to the census survey, a social analysis has been carried out in both the project area and in the control group through a sample socio-economic baseline HHs survey of approximately 1,500 HHs in the project area and 301 HHs in control group during April to June 2010. The survey was carried out using a structured questionnaire (Annexure-3). The socio-economic survey covered about 93.67% HHs in the rural area and about 5.93% in the semi-urban area. Among the respondents, about 98% belong to simple HHs and 1.8% are shop owners. The ethnic composition is dominated by Sinhalese comprising 86% followed by Tamils (8.87%). The average family size is 4.14 and the sex ratio is 971 females per 1,000 males. In 11.8% the HH was headed by a woman in the project area. About 24.62 % of the population is illiterate. Ground water from wells in residence is the major source of water (41.82%) followed by public well access by 31.49% of the HHs. Tap water is accessed by 16.49% of the HHs in the project area. About 78.67 % of the HHs have their own flush toilet and 7.13 % have no toilet facility and depend on the neighbouring fields. Agriculture as main activity is as practiced by 44.13 % of the HHs followed by daily wage earners (27.2%). Similarly about 7 % of the HHs has agriculture as allied activities followed by working for other farmers and daily wage earners. White collar jobs like working in government sector is reported by 17.27 % of the HHs and 3.3 % work in private sectors. About 6.67% of the HHs have a small business.

11. The total average annual income per HH is LKR 171,983.82. About 9.27 % of the HHs report having loans. The average landholding size is of 0.93 hectares. About 81.7 % of the total land is cultivable. Rice cultivation is practiced by the majority (73.72 %) of HHs followed by vegetable cultivation 7.25%. The pattern of expenditure is reported to be more on food (52.21 %) to the total reported expenditure. About 15.27 % of HHs report having a health centre within the village. In 14.8 % of the HHs at least a family member was sick during the last one year preceding this survey. Migration is reported in 10.53 % of HHs. Among the migrated HHs about 95.57 % migrated individually and the rest with family. About 59.49 % of the HH members migrated to outside of the district, 19.62% to the capital city and 12.03% outside of the country. Mostly the migrated males and females are engaged in private and government jobs. About 77.8% of the women in the HHs are engaged in HH activities besides other activities. About 51.47 % of the women in the surveyed HHs are engaged in agriculture, and 19.87 % are engaged in allied activities like poultry, dairy, etc. Similarly 17.7 % are engaged in the collection and sale of forest product. Women’s participation in the HH decision making is positive. About 87.6 % of HHs report women participation in day-to-day activities of the HH in general. The women spent about 2 hours and 53 minutes in cooking and 4 hours and 10 minutes in average caring the young and the sick. On safety of women during day time, about 96.8 % of the HH reported feeling safe and during night time the safety perception decreases to 62.47 %. About 97.60 % of the surveyed structures are residential and 1.67 % are commercial. The average age of the structures is 10 years and 8 months. 45.07 % of the structure roofs are tiles, followed by asbestos sheet (23.13%) and corrugated iron sheet (22.13 %). Similarly 63.20 % have concrete floors and 29.67 % are made of earth/clay/ sand. About 65.67 % of the structure walls are made of bricks. 79.40 % of the structures are permanent, 11.67 % are temporary and 8.93 are semi-permanent. The average number of rooms per structure is 2.84 and only 1 room is lighted.

12. As per the survey, only 28.47 % HHs are electrified. About 63.23 % get power from solar energy and 36 % from the national grid. The majority (about 95.55 %) of electrified HHs use electricity for lighting and 72.37 % have TV and radio. Similarly 6.56 % of the HH also use electricity for pumping water. About 25.53 % have an electric meter at their HH. The average monthly electricity bill is LKR 90.75 among the electrified HHs. About 35.36 % of the HHs also extensively use non-electric energy such as kerosene and wood. Unelectrified HHs use kerosene and diesel for lighting purpose (95 %). The average expenditure on kerosene and diesel is LKR 581.29 per month by unelectrified HHs. About 87.87 % reported that they pay their electricity bill regularly. Details on the findings of the baseline survey are given in Annexure-4.

13. The census survey revealed that only one woman headed HH will be affected by the project. Women in the project area are largely involved in HH work, cultivation and other agricultural activities. Women will not be affected negatively due to the project. Any negative impacts of project on female-headed HH will be taken up on a case-to-case basis and assistance to these families will be treated on a priority basis. During disbursement of compensation and provision of assistance, priority will be given to female-headed HHs. Additionally, women headed HHs are considered as vulnerable and provision for additional assistance has been made in the entitlement. Provision for equal wage and health safety facilities during the construction will be ensured by the EA and IA. Therefore, the project activities will not have any negative impact on women. Additionally, a Gender Action Plan has been prepared for the entire project component which has been appended to the project document. The will be no impacts foreseen on Indigenous Peoples (IP), therefore, no action has been taken.

E. INFORMATION DISCLOSURE, CONSULTATION, AND PARTICIPATION

1. Public Consultation 14. Public consultation was carried out in the project areas with the objectives of minimizing probable adverse impacts of the project and to achieve speedy implementation of the project through bringing in awareness among the community on the benefits of the project. During Project preparation, consultations have been held with the concerned government officials (CEB, MoPE, SLSEA, land Department etc). Additionally, consultations were also carried out with the affected persons (APs) in the project area and with local community. Focus Group Discussions (FGD) were conducted with the local community at 46 locations with a total of 405 participants at different project locations. The issues covered during these consultations included the selection of project sites and the identification of potential impacts and other key issues, including addressing the current gaps in electric usage. These consultations provided inputs in identification of the felt needs of the communities, and the relevant stakeholders. The primary stakeholders are the APs, i.e., land owners who are going to lose small piece of land, the farmers who will be impacted temporarily due to loss of crop, local community and EA/IA. The methods used for the consultations are individual meetings, interviews, structured questionnaires, open ended questionnaire and Focused Group Discussion (FGD) with local community. A brief summary on public consultations is described in Table 3 and the detailed summary on various FGDs is given in Annexure 5.

2. Information Disclosure 15. To ensure transparency and the ongoing involvement and participation of APs and other stakeholders, project information will be disseminated through the disclosure of resettlement planning documents. Resettlement information leaflets containing information on compensation, entitlement and resettlement management adopted for the project will be made available in the local language (Sinhalese) and the same will be distributed to APs. The EA and IAs will keep the APs informed about the impacts, the compensation and assistances proposed for them and facilitate addressing any grievances. The information will also be made available at a convenient place, easily accessible to the APs. The summary of the RP and the entitlement matrix will be translated into the local language; disclosed to the APs; and made available at CEB’s offices. A copy of the RP will be disclosed on the EA/IA and ADB website.

3. Continued Consultation and Participation 16. For continued consultations, the following steps are envisaged in the project:

 The EA/IA will organise public meetings and will apprise the communities about the progress in the implementation of resettlement, social and environmental activities.  The EA/IA will organise public meetings to inform the community about the compensation and assistance to be paid. Regular update of the progress of the resettlement component of the project will be made by the IA.  All monitoring and evaluation reports of the resettlement components of the project will be disclosed in the same manner as that of the RP.  The EA/IA will conduct information dissemination sessions at major intersections and solicit the help of the local community leaders to encourage the participation of the APs in RP implementation.

Draft – August 2010 Page 9 Sustainable Power Sector Support II Project SRI 39415

 Key features of the entitlements will be displayed along the project corridor.  Attempts will be made to ensure that vulnerable groups understand the process and to take their specific needs into account

F. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISMS

17. Efficient Grievance redress mechanism will be developed to assist the APs resolve their queries and complaints. The Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM) for the infrastructure development project provides an effective approach for complaints and resolution of issues made by the affected community in reliable way. This mechanism will remain active throughout the life cycle of the project. Thus Public Utilities Commission of Sri Lanka (PUCSL) Act creates an environment for all inhabitants of Sri Lanka and the contributors to its development, to have access to essential infrastructure and utility services in the most economical manner within the boundaries of the sustainable development agenda of the country. PUCSL’s mission is to regulate all the utilities within the purview of the PAAs, to ensure safe, reliable and reasonably priced infrastructure services for existing as well as future consumers in the most equitable and sustainable manner. All the members in PUCSL need to be informed by the PIU regarding procedures of GRM. The initial level of grievance will be addressed as per the PUCSL’s standard mechanism.

18. Grievances not settled as per the above PUCSL’s standard mechanism will be brought to the Grievance Redress Committee (GRC). The GRC will have representatives from APs, CEB, SLSEA, MoPE, Divisional Secretary, Land Officer under each divisional secretary, field level staff, and local community – where necessary. The main responsibilities of the GRC will be to: (i) provide support to APs/APs on problems arising from land/property acquisition; (ii) record AP/AP grievances, categorize, and prioritise grievances and resolve them; (iii) immediately inform the EA/IA of serious cases; and (iv) report to APs on developments regarding their grievances and the decisions of the GRC and the PIU. Other than disputes relating to ownership rights under the court of law, GRC will review grievances involving all resettlement benefits, compensation, relocation, replacement cost and other assistance. The GRC will meet every month (if grievances are brought to the Committee), to determine the merit of each grievance, and resolve grievances within a month of receiving the complaint-failing which the grievance will be referred to the appropriate court of Law for redressal. Records will be kept for all grievances received, including: contact details of the complainant, date the complaint was received, nature of grievance, agreed corrective actions and the date these were effected, as well as the final outcome. The GRCs will continue to function during the life of the Project loan including the defects liability period.

G. LEGAL FRAMEWORK

19. The policy framework and entitlements for the Project are based on GoSL’s Land Acquisition Act (LAA), 1950, the National Involuntary Resettlement Policy (NIRP), 2001; and ADB’s Safeguards Policy Statement 2009. A brief description on applicable laws and policies to the project are described in more detail below. The salient features of the Government’s and ADB polices, along with a gap analysis are summarised in Annexure-6.

20. The law governing acquisition of land for public purposes is the Land Acquisition Act, enacted in 1950 and which has been the subject of several amendments and revisions. LAA provides the legal basis to acquire land, if required for any project including in the electricity sector. The LAA sets out the procedures for acquiring land and for payment of compensation for acquired land. To ensure that people affected by development projects are treated in a fair and equitable manner, and that they are not impoverished in the process, GoSL has adopted the National Involuntary resettlement Policy (NIRP) in 2001. This policy established the framework for project planning and implementation.

21. The gap in Sri Lanka’s Land Acquisition Act of 1950 is that the Act provides only for compensation for land, structures and crops. It does not require project executing agencies (PEA) to address key resettlement issues such as (a) exploring alternative project options that avoid or minimize impacts on people; (b) compensating those who do not have title to land; (c) consulting affected people and hosts on resettlement options; (d) providing for successful social and economic integration of the affected people and their hosts, and (e) full social and economic rehabilitation of the affected people.

22. ADB has adopted Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS) in 2009 including safeguard requirements for environment, involuntary resettlement and indigenous people. The objectives of the policy are to avoid involuntary resettlement wherever possible; to minimize involuntary resettlement by exploring project and design alternatives; to enhance, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons in real terms relative to pre-project levels; and to improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups. The involuntary resettlement safeguards covers physical displacement (relocation, loss of Draft – August 2010 Page 10 Sustainable Power Sector Support II Project SRI 39415 residential land, or loss of shelter) and economic displacement (loss of land, assets, access to assets, income sources, or means of livelihoods) as a result of (i) involuntary acquisition of land, or (ii) involuntary restrictions on land use or on access to legally designated parks and protected areas. It covers them whether such losses and involuntary restrictions are full or partial, permanent or temporary.

23. Based on the above polices, the core involuntary resettlement principles for the Project have been adopted which are: (i) land acquisition, and other involuntary resettlement impacts will be avoided or minimised exploring all viable alternative sub-project designs; (ii) where unavoidable, time-bound resettlement plans (RPs) will be prepared and APs will be assisted in improving or at least regaining their pre-program standard of living; (iii) consultation with APs on compensation, disclosure of resettlement information to APs, and participation of APs in planning and implementing sub-projects will be ensured; (iv) vulnerable groups will be provided special assistance10; (v) payment of compensation to APs including non- titled persons (e.g., informal dwellers/squatters, and encroachers) for acquired assets at replacement rates; (vi) payment of compensation and resettlement assistance prior to the contractor taking physical acquisition of the land and prior to the commencement of any construction activities; (vii) provision of income restoration and rehabilitation; and (viii) establishment of appropriate grievance redress mechanisms.

H. ENTITLEMENTS, ASSISTANCE AND BENEFITS

1. Eligibility 24. All APs who are identified in the project-impacted areas on the cut-off date11 will be entitled to compensation for their affected assets, and rehabilitation measures (as outlined in the entitlement matrix below) sufficient to assist them to improve or at least maintain their pre-project living standards, income- earning capacity and production levels. The project will recognize both titleholders and non-titleholders. APs who settle in the affected areas after the cut-off date will not be eligible for compensation. They, however will be given sufficient advance notice, requested to vacate premises and dismantle affected structures (if any) prior to project implementation.

2. Entitlements 25. Based on the above broad principles, a detailed description of each compensation measure and assistance for the project is provided in the entitlement matrix. APs will be entitled to a combination of compensation measures and resettlement assistance, depending on the nature of ownership rights of lost assets and scope of the impact, including social and economic vulnerability of the APs. The loss of crop, trees and agriculture during the construction of the transmission lines will be paid as instant cash compensation for the damaged period. People will use the land below the lines after the construction. In case there is a need for repair or maintenance of the transmission lines in the future, the project authorities would reach agreement with the land owners for access to the land for maintenance and repairs, when necessary, and that the land owners would continue to use the land for farming activities. The EA will provide cash compensation to the APs for the temporary loss of crop, if occurred, during the time of maintenance and repair. The entitlement matrix (Table 4) summarizes the main types of losses and the corresponding entitlements in accordance with GoSL and ADB policies.

10 Vulnerable groups include poor households, households headed by women, the physically handicapped, and household headed by Indigenous People or ethnic minority. 11 The cut-off date for title holders is based according to the formal notification under LAA, and for non-titleholders the date of the census survey which is June 2010. Those who encroach into the subproject area after the cut-off date will not be entitled to compensation or any other assistance.

I. INCOME RESTORATION AND REHABILITATION

26. The project will not result in any permanent displacement may it be physical or economic. Temporary impacts on crops are foreseen for which adequate compensation has been provided in the entitlement matrix which will be as per the current market rate. Transitional allowances to the APs losing land has been provided in addition to the compensation based on a three months of minimum wage equivalent to LKR 12,000 per HHs. Also, vulnerable HHs will be paid an additional assistance on a lump sum basis equivalent to LKR 10,000 per HH. CEB/SLSEA will ensure that advance notice be issued to the APs prior to the start of the work and al the compensation will be paid prior to the start of the construction. The project will impact on only one HH who will lose a piece of land and most of the impacts are temporary loss on crop, therefore, the relocation and income restoration of the APs are very much temporary in nature. The APs will also be allowed to cultivate under the transmission line (under the RoW) after the completion of the work. In case of any maintenance work in the future, CEB will pay the APs for any loss of crop and trees less than 3 meters of height due to the work.

J. RESETTLEMENT BUDGET AND FINANCING PLAN

27. The resettlement cost estimate for the project includes eligible compensation, resettlement assistance and support cost for RP implementation. These are part of the overall project cost. The unit cost for land and crops in this budget has been derived through rapid field appraisal, consultation with affected families and relevant government authorities. Contingency provisions have also been made to take into account variations from this estimate. The components of the resettlement cost include various features such as, compensation for land at their replacement value; compensation for crops; assistance for transitional allowance and cost for implementation of RP. CEB and SLSEA will arrange in advance to allot the required budget in its budget to meet the requirement of land acquisition and resettlement cost.

1. Compensation 28. Private Agricultural Land: The unit rate for agricultural land has been assessed as LKR 800,000 per Hectare. This has been determined keeping in mind the replacement cost as revealed by the AP and as based on the market rate

29. Crop: The unit cost for the crop is LKR 20,000 per Hectare. This has been assessed as per the yielding of the land and as revealed by the APs during the consultation.

2. Assistance 30. Stamp Duty and Documentation Fees: The unit cost has been assessed on a lump sum basis which is LKR 10,000 per title holder HH

31. Transitional Assistance: This has been calculated based on three months of minimum daily wage rates. The usual wage rate per day is LKR. 200 and therefore the unit rate per HH is LKR 12,000.

32. Vulnerable HH Allowance: The unit cost has been assessed on a lump sum basis which is LKR 10,000 per vulnerable HH.

3. RP Implementation and Support Cost 33. Administrative cost: This has been calculated on a lump sum basis which is LKR 10, 00, 00 which will include, vehicle hire, documentation and grievance redress etc.

34. The resettlement budget requirements have been calculated based on the above parameters. The total land acquisition and resettlement cost for the Project is estimated to be LKR 9.54 million. Details are found below in Table 5.

K. INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS

35. MoPE will be the Executing Agency (EA). CEB will be the Implementing Agency (IA) for transmission strengthening and rural electrification components and two sub-components of energy efficiency and renewable energy (reactive power management; and Moragolla hydropower plant detailed design). SLSEA will implement the remaining energy efficiency and renewable energy sub-components. A Steering Committee, established for the Project and chaired by the Secretary of the MoPE, will meet quarterly to provide overall guidance to the IAs and review the overall progress of the Project.

36. CEB has ongoing ADB-financed projects and will use the existing project management structure complemented by additional staff dedicated exclusively to implementation of the Project. Project Implementation Units (PIUs), including experienced staff and headed by senior officers will be set up in CEB and SLSEA to undertake day-to-day project implementation activities. Full-time project managers with qualified staff will be appointed to supervise sub-projects under each component. The PIUs will be responsible for overall project implementation, including procurement, accounting, quality assurance, social and environmental issues and coordination with concerned agencies. PIUs will also coordinate closely with the procurement committee, which will be appointed by the cabinet or MoPE depending on the size of contracts. SLSEA's PIU will be supported by project implementation consultants.

37. The PIU at CEB and SLSEA will be responsible for land acquisition and implementation of RP, and will take the overall responsibility with due coordination from the relevant govern ministry and department such as Ministry of Land and Land Development (MLLD) and Divisional Secretary. The CEB has an existing and well established Transmission Design and Environment Branch headed by Deputy General Manager (DGM) and the Environment Unit headed by Environment Officer with full capacity in safeguards planning and implementation and . The branch will be responsible for implementing safeguard issues associated with the Project through the PIU. However, SLSEA has to establish a PIU and will have to staff its adequate safeguards specialist or consultants in the PIU. Therefore, all the activities related to planning and implementation of safeguards components in this Project will be responsibility of CEB and SLSEA in their respective areas. However, MoPE will facilitate for higher level coordination with MLLD when required. Details on the institutional roles and responsibilities related to land acquisition and resettlement activities are described in Table 6.

L. IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE

38. All land acquisition, resettlement, and compensation will be completed before the start of civil works. All land required will be provided free of encumbrances to the contractor prior to handing over of sub-project sites and the start of civil works. However, public consultation, grievance redress and internal monitoring will be continued on an intermittent basis for the entire duration of the project. Implementation schedule for RP activities, including various sub tasks and a time line aligned to the civil work schedule is prepared and presented in Table 7.

M. MONITORING AND REPORTING

39. Monitoring will be the responsibility of the EA (MoPE) and IAs (CEB and SLSEA) through its PIU. The extent of monitoring activities, including their scope and periodicity, will be commensurate with the project’s risks and impacts. CEB and SLSEA is required to implement safeguard measures and relevant

Draft – August 2010 Page 15 Sustainable Power Sector Support II Project SRI 39415 safeguard plans, as provided in the legal agreements, and to submit monitoring reports (every 6 months) summarizing implementation performance. ADB will require MoPE, CEB and SLSEA to:

 establish and maintain roles, responsibilities, lines of communication and procedures for monitoring the implementation of the safeguard plans,  verify compliance with safeguard measures and their progress toward achieving the intended outcomes,  document and disclose monitoring results and identify necessary corrective and preventive actions in the periodic monitoring reports,  follow up on these actions to ensure progress toward the desired outcomes,(v) retain qualified and experienced external expert to verify monitoring information for projects with significant impacts and risks,  Submit periodic monitoring reports on safeguard measures as agreed with ADB.

40. The PIU established to work alongside CEB and SLSEA will be responsible for daily planning, implementation, feedback and trouble shooting, maintenance of individual AP files, managing and maintaining good community relationships and continuous dialogue, scheduling consultation dates, staying abreast of complaints or appeals placed and of submitting periodic progress reports. The PIU will prepare monthly monitoring reports and will compile the report which will be submitted to ADB on a semi-annual basis. Monitoring reports documenting progress on resettlement implementation and RP completion reports will be provided by the CEB and SLSEA to ADB for review. Additionally, ADB will monitor projects on an ongoing basis until a project completion report is issued.

41. The indicators for achieving the proposed objectives during the implementation of the RP of two types: (i) Process Indicators (Indicating project inputs, expenditure, staff deployment, etc.) and (ii) Output Indicators: Indicating results in terms of numbers of APs compensated, area of temporarily occupied lands restored, etc. A sample monitoring indicator is given in Annexure-7. Input and output indicators related to physical progress of the work will include items such as: (i) Training of EA/IA and other staff completed, (ii) Census, assets inventories, assessments and socio-economic studies completed, (iii) Grievance redress procedures in-place and functionality, (iv) Compensation payments disbursed, (v) Relocation of APs completed where applicable, (vi) Project employment provided to APs, (vii) Infrastructure rehabilitated or constructed, (ix) Income restoration activities initiated, (x) Number of HHs displaced and resettled, and (xi) Monitoring and evaluation reports submitted.

ANNEXURE- 6 BRIEF OVERVIEW ON VARIOUS RELEVANT POLICIES

1. LAND ACQUISITION ACT 1950 ALONG WITH AMENDMENTS BY 2009 1. The law governing acquisition of land for public purposes is the Land Acquisition Act (LAA), enacted in 1950 and which has been the subject of several amendments and revisions. LAA provides the legal basis to acquire land, if required for any project including in the electricity sector. The LAA sets out the procedures for acquiring land and for payment of compensation for acquired land.

2. A notice is issued specifying that land is potentially required for a public purpose, and this permits authorised personnel to undertake investigations (surveys, boreholes, and setting out of boundaries etc) to determine suitability. If the land is deemed suitable for the public purpose a written declaration to that effect is made, and notices are issued describing the land, the intention to acquire the land, and requiring that persons with an interest in the land notify (in writing) the acquiring officer of their claim (including the expected amount of compensation)16.

3. The acquiring officer then holds an inquiry into the market value of the land, the claims for compensation, and the respective interests of the claimants, as well as any other related matters. At the conclusion of the inquiry the acquiring officer either makes a decision on the claims or refers the claims to the District Court or Primary Court.

4. Following the decision (either by the acquiring officer or the courts), the acquiring officer makes an award determining the persons who are entitled to compensation, the total amount of compensation deemed to be allowed for the acquisition, and the apportionment of the compensation between the persons with interest in the land. In the event of a dispute over the determination, it may be appealed to either the Compensation Review Board or Court of Appeal (on questions of law following a decision by the Compensation Review Board), provided that the appeal is lodged within 21 days of receipt of notification of the award.

5. Provided that there are no appeals, the compensation is paid (the LAA allows for an initial payment and the remainder to be paid in instalments). If the person with an interest in the land has agreed to a land exchange in lieu of cash, the transfer is put into effect at this time. After the awards are made the Minister publishes or gazettes a “vesting order” for the possession of the land, after which time occupants of any buildings located on the land to be vested are given notice to vacate.

2. NATIONAL INVOLUNTARY RESETTLEMENT POLICY 2001 (NIRP) 6. To ensure that people affected by development projects are treated in a fair and equitable manner, and that they are not impoverished in the process, GoSL has adopted National Involuntary resettlement Policy (NIRP) in 2001. This policy would establish the framework for project planning and implementation. Subsequently, it will be necessary to prepare guidelines on resettlement planning and implementation to be used by the PEA. In the past, project related resettlement of Sri Lanka has been guided by Land Acquisition Act of 1950, as amended from ti e to time. However, as it did not have adequate provisions for full social and economic rehabilitation of the people to be resettled, Sri Lanka has adopted NIRP. The policy assigns the overall responsibility of its implementation to the Ministry of Land Development, with the project approving agencies and the Central Environmental Authority too being assigned responsibilities of evaluation and implementation. In addition to the NIRP, a cabinet decision has been adopted in 2006, (as amended in 2007) specifically for the payment of compensation for families affected by land acquisition for power sector development projects and works connected with electrical undertakings. As stated earlier, no involuntary resettlement is foreseen in this project. However in case any involuntary resettlement becomes unavoidable, compensation would be paid in accordance with the NIRP and the Cabinet Decision of 2006 (amended in 2007)

7. The policy will apply to all development-induced land acquisition or recovery of possession by the State. A comprehensive Resettlement Action Plan will be required where 20 or more families are affected and if less than 20 families are affected the policy still applies but a plan can be prepared to a lesser level of detail. The policy will apply to all projects regardless of source of funding and. The policy will apply to all projects in the planning phase on the date this policy comes into effect, and all future projects. Some of the

16 The acquiring officer can also request any person with an interest in the land to deliver a statement setting out the names and addresses of every other person with any form of interest (whole or partial) in the land.

Draft – August 2010 Page 75 Sustainable Power Sector Support II Project SRI 39415 basic objectives of the NIRP are to (i) avoid, minimise and mitigate negative impacts of involuntary resettlement by facilitating the reestablishment of the affected people on a productive and self-sustaining basis. The policy should also facilitate the development of the project-affected people and the project; (ii) to ensure that people adversely affected by development projects are fully and promptly compensated and successfully resettled and the livelihoods of the displaced persons should be re-established and the standard of living improved; (iii) ensure that no impoverishment of people shall result as a consequence of compulsory land acquisition for development purposes by the State, (iv) to assist adversely affected people in dealing with the psychological, cultural, social and other stresses caused by compulsory land acquisition; (v) to make all affected people aware of processes available for the redress of grievances that are easily accessible and immediately responsive, (vi) to have in place a consultative, transparent and accountable involuntary resettlement process with a time frame agreed to by the PEA and the affected people.

8. The Broad principles of the NIRP are as follows:

 Involuntary resettlement should be avoided or reduced as much as possible by reviewing alternatives to the project as well as alternatives within the project.  Where involuntary resettlement is unavoidable, affected people should be assisted to re-establish themselves and improve their quality of life.  Gender equality and equity should be ensured and adhered to throughout the policy.  Affected persons should be fully involved in the selection of relocation sites livelihood compensation and development options at the earliest opportunity  Replacement land should be an option for compensation in the case of loss of land; in the absence of replacement land cash compensation should be an option for all affected persons  Compensation for loss of land, structures, other assets and income should be based on full replacement cost and should be paid promptly. This should include transaction costs.  Resettlement should be planned and implemented with full participation of the provincial and local authorities.  To assist those affected to be economically and socially integrated into the host communities, participatory measures should be designed and implemented.  Common property resources and community and public services should be provided to affected people.  Resettlement should be planned as a development activity for the affected people.  Affected persons who do not have documented title to land should receive fair and just treatment.  Vulnerable groups should be identified and given appropriate assistance to substantially improve their living standards.  Project Executing Agencies should bear the full costs of compensation and resettlement.

3. ADB’S SAFEGUARD POLICY STATEMENT, 2009 (SPS) 9. ADB has adopted Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS) in 2009 including safeguard requirements for environment, involuntary resettlement and indigenous people. The objectives of the Involuntary Resettlement Safeguard policy is to avoid involuntary resettlement wherever possible; to minimise involuntary resettlement by exploring project and design alternatives; to enhance, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons in real terms relative to pre-project levels; and to improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups.

10. The involuntary resettlement safeguards covers physical displacement (relocation, loss of residential land, or loss of shelter) and economic displacement (loss of land, assets, access to assets, income sources, or means of livelihoods) as a result of (i) involuntary acquisition of land, or (ii) involuntary restrictions on land use or on access to legally designated parks and protected areas. It covers them whether such losses and involuntary restrictions are full or partial, permanent or temporary. The main policy principles of the Involuntary Resettlement Safeguard are:

(i) Screen the project early on to identify past, present, and future involuntary resettlement impacts and risks. Determine the scope of resettlement planning through a survey and/or census of displaced persons, including a gender analysis, specifically related to resettlement impacts and risks. (ii) Carry out meaningful consultations with affected persons, host communities, and concerned non-government organisations. Inform all displaced persons of their entitlements and resettlement options. Ensure their participation in planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of resettlement programs. Pay particular attention to the needs of vulnerable groups, especially those below the poverty line, the landless, the elderly, women and Draft – August 2010 Page 76 Sustainable Power Sector Support II Project SRI 39415

children, and Indigenous Peoples, and those without legal title to land, and ensure their participation in consultations. Establish a grievance redress mechanism to receive and facilitate resolution of the affected persons’ concerns. Support the social and cultural institutions of displaced persons and their host population. Where involuntary resettlement impacts and risks are highly complex and sensitive, compensation and resettlement decisions should be preceded by a social preparation phase. (iii) Improve, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons through (i) land-based resettlement strategies when affected livelihoods are land based where possible or cash compensation at replacement value for land when the loss of land does not undermine livelihoods, (ii) prompt replacement of assets with access to assets of equal or higher value, (iii) prompt compensation at full replacement cost for assets that cannot be restored, and (iv) additional revenues and services through benefit sharing schemes where possible. (iv) Provide physically and economically displaced persons with needed assistance, including the following: (i) if there is relocation, secured tenure to relocation land, better housing at resettlement sites with comparable access to employment and production opportunities, integration of resettled persons economically and socially into their host communities, and extension of project benefits to host communities; (ii) transitional support and development assistance, such as land development, credit facilities, training, or employment opportunities; and (iii) civic infrastructure and community services, as required. (v) Improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups, including women, to at least national minimum standards. In rural areas provide them with legal and affordable access to land and resources, and in urban areas provide them with appropriate income sources and legal and affordable access to adequate housing. (vi) Develop procedures in a transparent, consistent, and equitable manner if land acquisition is through negotiated settlement to ensure that those people who enter into negotiated settlements will maintain the same or better income and livelihood status. (vii) Ensure that displaced persons without titles to land or any recognisable legal rights to land are eligible for resettlement assistance and compensation for loss of non-land assets. (viii) Prepare a resettlement plan elaborating on displaced persons’ entitlements, the income and livelihood restoration strategy, institutional arrangements, monitoring and reporting framework, budget, and time-bound implementation schedule. (ix) Disclose a draft resettlement plan, including documentation of the consultation process in a timely manner, before project appraisal, in an accessible place and a form and language(s) understandable to affected persons and other stakeholders. Disclose the final resettlement plan and its updates to affected persons and other stakeholders. (x) Conceive and execute involuntary resettlement as part of a development project or program. Include the full costs of resettlement in the presentation of project’s costs and benefits. For a project with significant involuntary resettlement impacts, consider implementing the involuntary resettlement component of the project as a stand-alone operation. (xi) Pay compensation and provide other resettlement entitlements before physical or economic displacement. Implement the resettlement plan under close supervision throughout project implementation. (xii) Monitor and assess resettlement outcomes, their impacts on the standards of living of displaced persons, and whether the objectives of the resettlement plan have been achieved by taking into account the baseline conditions and the results of resettlement monitoring. Disclose monitoring reports.

4. GAPS BETWEEN VARIOUS POLICIES

11. In Sri Lanka the Land Acquisition Act of 1950 as amended from time to time only provides for compensation for land, structures and crops. It does not require the PEAs to address key resettlement issues such as (a) exploring alternative project options that avoid or minimise impacts on people; (b) compensating those who do not have title to land; (c) consulting affected people and hosts on resettlement options; (d) providing for successful social and economic integration of the affected people and their hosts, and (e) full social and economic rehabilitation of the affected people. A gap analysis of various policies has been given in Table 1
