Contract awarded in January 2019; $2.93 million or 27% disbursed, with physical progress of 2.65 km or 14.51% completion, contract will be completed in June 2020. 1.3. Purpose of the Due Diligence Report 7. Following the awarding of all 4 civil works contracts, the potential loan savings of $24 million was identified and the government requested ADB to utilize $15 million of the loan savings for expansion of sewerage networks within Djizzak city as it is expected to expand in accordance with the Djizzak City Development Master Plan approved in 30 September, 2013 by the Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers No.266. The Master Plan envisages construction of new multistory apartment houses, schools, kindergartens, mahalla guzars, small squares, avenues, as well as suburban bus stations. A translated copy of the Master Plan is attached as Annex 1.Copies of layouts developed by State Unitary Enterprise “Uzshakharsozlik LITI” (Urban Development Design Institute)within the Master Plan for some areas of the city are given in the below pictures. This expansion will increase the coverage rate from the planned 46% to 72% thus substantially maximizing the project benefits. The EA confirmed no further revision of the feasibility study is required since the proposed scope is within the approved feasibility study for this project. ADB advised the EA to submit a proposal on the utilization of loan savings to ADB (i) to conduct technical, environmental, social, economic, and financial due diligence; (ii) update the design and monitoring framework; (iii) obtain the necessary approval. 8. In June, 2019 the government submitted the list of proposed additional civil works to be included in the project scope due to use the loan savings. The scope of the proposed new works includes the construction of new sewerage networks around 53.5 km, cleaning of existing sewerage networks 9.5 km in Djizzak city and equipping chlorination building of existing WWTP. The list of new works proposed by the government is attached as Annex 2. 9. These additional works are required in accordance with the government’s approved new Master Plan for Djizzak urban development. Since the year 2013, the Government has been gradually implementing the Master Plan whose horizon is the year 2030. Implementation of the Master Plan requires demolishing of one-floor dwellings of local people. Families whose dwellings to be demolished are being compensated and after LAR process is completed their dwellings are demolished. Land acquisition and resettlement activities have been implementing since the time of commencement of the Master Plan. LAR activities had been initiated and been implemented not in anticipation of the ADB project but in anticipation of the mentioned Master Plan. In some areas of the city, LAR activities had been completed, in some areas of the city the LAR activities are being implemented and in some areas, they will be started in coming years depending on the government’s schedule for implementing the Master Plan. 10. Purpose of this due diligence is to demonstrate findings of resettlement screening of new sewerage networks construction works proposed by the government within the “Djizzak Sanitation System Development” project which is currently implemented.

2. Scope of Land Acquisition and Resettlement Impacts

11. The Djizzak province “Suvokova” informed that no additional land acquisition and involuntary resettlement would be required for the proposed additional scope of works. Copy of Certificate of Deputy Hokim of Djizzak city signed by related government officers of Djizzak city such as Department for Architecture and Construction; Land Resources and Cadaster Department; and Djizzak Province Suvokova confirming that proposed new works will not entail any LAR impact and its translation are attached as Annex 3. All the proposed additional works will be implemented on cleaned municipality lands along roads or sidewalks which will be recovered by the project to original condition after completion. The EA has also confirmed that no works will be carried out on territories of households or businesses. 12. During the ADB’s “Djizzak Sanitation System Development Project” Midterm Review Mission on 21 – 31 May 2019 the EA and ADB agreed that Social Due Diligence Report covering the proposed new works would be prepared and submitted to ADB by 20 June, 2019. In accordance with such agreement and based on the submitted list of new works and other technical information received from “Suvokova” the resettlement consultant of the Project Management Consulting firm screened the areas for the proposed new works. 13. Findings of screening of the areas proposed for construction of new sewerage networks revealed that no resettlement impact is expected due to the implementation of new works for construction of the proposed sewerage networks. At the moment, no detailed and exact technical information is available. The screening has been carried out based on preliminary and general information which is available at the moment. After completion of detailed design for the proposed new works another screening of shall be carried out to confirm findings of this screening. The detailed design works are expected to be completed by end of the year 2019 - middle of the first quarter 2020 on condition that all processes for approving of funding of the new scope of works and tendering for selection of contractors go smoothly and implemented timely. In case of resettlement impact is identified at that stage then the requirements of the SPS, 2009 shall be applied including preparing Land Acquisition and Resettlement Planning document. In case if LAR impacts are identified no civil works will start before full payment of compensation to the project affected persons. Details of the screening are given in the below section. Screening checklist is attached as Annex 4.

3. Methodology of the Social Due Diligence Exercise 14. The social due diligence methodology was based on two parts, the desk study and walk- over survey which are considered as two essential components of due diligence survey. The desk study was carried out before the site survey. Its purpose was to learn as much technical and other information on the proposed new sewerage pipelines construction works and on the area to be surveyed including:  Urban Development Master Plan  Information on the proposed new works  Available engineering layouts  Information about the area to be covered by new works  Construction standards for sewerage pipelines  Other available related information.

17. The resettlement screening of the proposed new works indicated in the above table has been carried out in June, 2019 by resettlement consultant of the PMC. The screening was based on preliminary technical information and general drawings provided by the “Suvokova”. At the moment no detailed level technical information is available because detailed design works had not been carried out yet. Exact alignments of new sewerage pipelines are not known yet. Such information will be available after completion of detailed design. “Suvokova” has preliminary proposals for alignments of new sewerage pipelines and the screening was carried out taken into consideration such alignments. However, the alignments for new sewerage pipelines proposed by “Suvokova” can change during the detailed design process which does not necessarily mean a change of diameters of such pipelines. 18. The screening of new sewerage networks construction areas showed that there will be no resettlement impact, neither temporary nor permanent, during the implementation of the new proposed works related to sewerage pipes construction in Djizzak city. New sewerage pipeline construction works will be implemented on the areas which are being developed by the municipal government within the Master Plan for Djizzak Urban Development. Under the city development program existing one-floor dwellings and other structures are being demolished or will be demolished and such areas are cleaned for further construction of new multistory apartment houses. Photos from the sites cleaned/being cleaned for construction of new apartment houses are given below here for a better illustration and understanding.

The below section describes the national government provisions and measures regulating the land acquisition and resettlement issues, compensations payments, and relevant resolutions and decrees. 6.2 Laws, Regulations, and Provisions Relating to Land Acquisition and Resettlement 6.2.1 The Constitution of the Republic of Uzbekistan 51. The Constitution of the Republic of Uzbekistan adopted on 08.12.1992 with the latest amendment on 15.10.2018 provides that:  everyone shall have the right to own property (Article 36). The economy of Uzbekistan, evolving towards market relations, is based on various forms of ownership.

The Land Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan was adopted on 30.04.1998 with the latest amendment of 24.07.2018. The code regulates the issues of withdrawal and provision of land plots for non-agricultural needs, compensation of losses of agricultural production, defines ownership and rights on the land. It describes responsibilities of different state authorities of Uzbekistan related to land management; rights and obligations of the land possessor, user, tenant, and owner; land category types, land acquisition, and compensation, resolution of land disputes and land protection. The Land Code also defines the terms of rights termination on the land plot, seizure and land acquisition of land plot for state and public needs, and terms of seizure of land plot in violation of land legislation. 54. According to the Land Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan, all land in Uzbekistan is state property and permits for use of land are granted and monitored by the State through the district and province administrations. National legislation envisages the following types of land transfers: for use, lease, or ownership by legal entities (only with objects of trade and services infrastructure), and for lifelong inheritable ownership (with housing), use, or lease by individuals. While all land transactions are subject to state regulation some transactions occur with special permission of the state. The laws and procedures for expropriating agricultural and urban land are treated differently under Uzbek Law. While agricultural land issues are covered and treated under the Land Code, urban land issues are covered under the Civil Code, the Housing Code, and the Urban Construction Code. 55. The Land Code identifies several categories of land users, who are eligible for compensation for losses and damages in connection with the land acquisition:

37

 land tenants – citizens who were allocated land plots for individual housing construction and/or dehkan farming on the basis of life-long tenure;  lessees (leaseholders) – farmers, who were allocated land plots for agricultural production purposes, on the basis of a long-term lease;  Landowners – users of land plots occupied by trade and services infrastructure, which are used as private property. Land, occupied by trade and services infrastructure, however, may not be sold separately from the latter  land users – all other enterprises, organizations, and institutions, which are entitled to use non-agricultural lands. This is the largest category, which includes enterprises and institutions of all types (private and public). Examples include hospitals, schools, private enterprises, and factories. 56. The land legislation envisages compensation for damages to land users in full, including lost profits in the following cases: (a) permanent or temporary acquisition of land; (b) limitation of the rights of users; (c) deterioration of land quality due to implementation of construction works, servicing, and other activities that lead to reductions in the quantity or quality of agricultural products. According to the legislation, compensation for loss of agricultural production is not provided if: (i) land is acquired for the construction and servicing of individual housing; (ii) land is acquired for the construction of schools, boarding-schools, orphanages, preschool and healthcare establishments; and (iii) land was allocated for water management purposes and for the construction of irrigation and water-related facilities. 6.2.3 Housing Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan 57. The Housing Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan was adopted on 24.12.1998 with the latest amendment of 11.10.2018. This housing legislation regulates the relations of citizens, legal entities, public bodies and local governments on such issues as emergence, implementation, change and termination of the property right, the right of possession and use of premises; registration of housing, maintenance and repair of housing stock, monitoring of observance of housing rights of citizens and proper use of housing stock. 58. Article 27 ensures that affected persons whose houses are demolished will be provided with equal value housing in case their residential lands are acquired for public needs. The article ensures that such affected persons are compensated for lost facilities, constructions, crops, trees and other damages. 59. Article 28 of the Code identifies conditions for “land for land” compensation for acquisition of residential lands for state and public needs. The article says that in case of demolition of residential houses in connection with land acquisition for state or public needs the affected citizens, members of their families and also the citizens which permanently live in these houses shall be provided land for individual housing construction based on the existing standards. The affected persons should be provided temporary housing for the period of new house construction on new land up to three years including full compensation of demolished premises, facilities, constructions and plantings as well as other related expenditures. 60.

6.2.4 Civil Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan 62. The Civil Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan was adopted by the Laws of the Republic of Uzbekistan No.163-I dated 21.12.1995 and No.256-I dated 29.08.1996 with the last amendments of 18.04.2018. The Civil Code provides a definition of property, main concepts to property objects, basics of termination of property rights and right for compensation payments due to property right loss, rights on intellectual property, it regulates the contractual and other obligations as well as other property and related personal non-property relations. The Code sets general rules of property acquisition, calculation of property cost and rights for compensation, terms of rights termination. 63. The Code provides that a person whose rights are violated may claim full compensation for damages unless the law or the contract provides compensation for losses in a smaller size (Article 14, Clause 1). The Civil Code (Article 14, Clause 2) also specifies that losses are understood as:  expenses that the person whose rights are violated, made or must make to restore the violated rights;  loss of or damage to property (real damage);  revenues which this person would have received under normal conditions of civil turnover if his rights had not been violated (lost profits). 64. According to Article 14, Clause 3 “If a person who violated a law and got revenues received as a result of this, the person whose rights had been violated has the right to claim compensation along with other losses, lost profits in the amount not less than such revenues”. 65. According to Article 7 “If an international treaty or agreement stipulates other rules than those stipulated by civil legislation, rules of the international treaty or agreement shall be applied”. This rule is a common rule for all Uzbekistan’s laws. 66. According to Article 8, Clause 3, the rights to the property which are subject to state registration shall arise upon the registration of the relevant rights to it, unless otherwise provided by law. Article 84, Clause 1 says that the right for ownership and other real property rights, creation, transfer, restriction, and termination of these rights are subject to state registration. This means that without registration the right to real estate property does not enter into the force. This statement is very important for the further understanding of LAR processes related to land acquisition and building’s demolition. 6.2.5 Resolution of the President of Uzbekistan “About the Measures for Basic Improvement of Investment Climate in the Republic of Uzbekistan” 67.

6. FUNCTIONAL PLANNING AND ARCHITECTURAL AND SPATIAL CITY DEVELOPMENT The architectural and planning structure of the Master Plan of the city is based on the continuity of the previously developed Master Plans with the development of the urban environment in the north and north-east directions. The territory of the city, as in the previous Master Plans, consists of residential and industrial areas. In turn, the residential area is divided into administrative, economic, cultural, educational, historical and other areas of the city. Location of the city center, its sub-center and their zones of influence plays a special role in the city planning. Taking into account the current urban development situation, as well as the continuity of the Master Plans that laid the foundation for locating the city center practically in its geometric center, this idea is supported and developed by the present project. Its main core with administrative and economic facilities of regional management, cultural and educational, training institutions, medical institutions, remains on the existing territory in the western planning region. Taking into account the city development in the northeastern direction, in the direction of the Uchtepa regional center, the Master Plan lays down a new center of the planning area with service facilities in the northeastern part of the city. The location of a new sub-center in this part of the city will allow accelerating the development of this residential area. Residential development in the city is planned with the following different types: high-rise - 9-4 floors, low-rise - 2-3 floors, as well as individual - 1-2 floors. One-story buildings are offered for placement with areas ranging from 500 to 600 square meters per family. In the rural settlements that are attached at the first stage and during the estimated period, where the site area exceeds the urban norms, the project plans to compact these territories in accordance with the Land Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan. The development of a sectional two-story building is not planned by the Master Plan due to its inefficiency and unprofitability. All this dictated the decision in favor of the project application of 2-, 3-story residential buildings with apartments in different levels, with a private garden space of 150- 200 square meters.

Houses of this type, especially 3-story ones, are planned in the Master Plan to be located along the main roads of the city for the purpose of their design. Inside micro districts and makhallas, 2-story residential buildings in the form of small arrays and blocks will be mainly used. Such an arrangement will allow more productive use of engineering communications and reduce the cost of their connection to the places of consumption.

54

Multi-story residential buildings (4 floors) are widely used in the urban environment, especially on sites with low-rise building demolition. They are used in order to decorate the main streets and intended mainly for small families. The Master Plan proposes to introduce primary service facilities in the ground floors of these houses. Its main construction is planned in the second planning area. Nine-story buildings are proposed to be located in especially responsible urban planning centers in conjunction with social amenities on the ground floors. Each residential formation (makhallya, microdistrict) is provided with a complex of primary and periodic services for the population. Taking into account the service standards and the number of population living therein, the establishment of schools, kindergartens, makhallya guzars, and a small square or park is planned in each formation. Architectural and historical sites of the city (the largest ones) are located in two territories. One of them is located in the northern part of the eastern planning area on the site of the former "Urda" fortress and represents the territory of a memorial complex dedicated to the victims of the Djizzak insurrection. The other part is located in the industrial zone "B" and represents a hilly territory named "Kaliatepa". Security zones are created around these and other small historical monuments located in different parts of the city. The Master Plan proposes to equip the nearby territories, to create places for visits by tourist groups, to solve parking problems in the areas of these monuments. Near historical monuments, it is necessary to establish restrictions on the location of billboards, various kinds of buildings that are alien to the historical past. Industrial zones of the city are located in the first and second planning areas on the basis of the existing industrial zones. They are divided into the "Central Industrial Zone" (consisting of industrial zones "A" and "B") and "Western", located in the western part of the city, in the area of the former lime plant. The industrial zone "A" is of particular importance, where creation of a free economic zone (FEZ) "Djizzak" is planned according to Decree of the President of the Republic of Uzbekistan dated March 15, 2013, N UP-4516 and Resolution of the Cabinet of Ministers dated July 1, 2013, N 190. Such location of industrial zones, as close as possible to the residential formations of the city, will allow reducing the time for the population moving to the places of employment. At the same time, some small industrial enterprises, warehouses, bases, construction organizations are removed out of residential areas of the city to industrial ones, and city-wide cultural and common organizations and facilities are located instead of them. External transport facilities of the city remain on their territories. The railway facilities, the right-of-way and the sanitary protection zone accompanying it complicate and dismember the territory of the city. From them, it is planned to create 5-10-row landscaped anti-noise plantations along the entire length of the railway line. When creating new city-wide highways and laying them to the western, southern and eastern parts of the city, it is necessary to build overpasses through the railway lines and to create bridges through the river Sangzar. In addition, at the intersection of the main highways of the city, connected with external directions, with I and II category bypass roads, the railway, it is necessary to perform the construction of road junctions at different levels. Road transport facilities (bus terminal, bus station, road service), in the Master Plan, receive additional development in accordance with the calculations made in order to provide the population with these types of services. The Master Plan, pursuant to the Road Transport Communications Development Program and the long-term development plan for the period of 2014-2015, provides for the establishment of bus stations at the entrances to the city, that will accept suburban routes with a transfer of

55 passengers to the city routes, and thus the city roads will be unloaded from external passenger traffic. The system of city-wide highways develops and streamlines the existing main street network of the city. It makes it possible to create new residential areas of the city and at the same time combine them into a single whole. For this purpose, it is proposed to create latitudinal and meridional citywide highways connected to the existing highways of the city, followed by their access to the bypass and suburban highways in the direction of Samarkand, Uchtepa, Yangikishlak, Gallyaral regional centers and several other settlements of the region. Creation of bypass and suburban highways will allow transit flows to bypass the city and thereby improve the ecological situation of the urban environment. The following streets belong to the highway streets of citywide value: Sh. Rashidova, KhalklarDustligi, A. Navoi, Mustakillik, Bogdon, Mulkanlik. One of the main highways of the city is two structural parallel meridional streets - Sh. Rashidov and Khalklar Dustligi, which host most of the administrative, cultural, community and trade organizations and enterprises. They perform the transport connection of the southern residential areas with the market, and the railway station with the city center and the "Urda" square. Mustakillik street is the main entrance to the city from such settlements as Uchtepa, Pakhtakor, Dustlik, Gagarin. It is actually a part of 4P-38 “Jizzakh-Uchtepa” motor road M-39" of republican significance. Mulkanlik street passes from the south-east to the north-east, provides transport links of the southern residential formations with the industrial zone and the city center. The highways of regional importance include Imamov, Akkurganchlik, Kaliya, BuyukTuron, and Khamza streets. They provide connection of the residential formations among themselves, with industrial objects, external transport facilities, cultural and common services, and the city center. The network of city streets of regulated traffic is solved so that there will be a congress to the zone of the city center from each external direction, and communication of residential areas with places of employment, and recreation areas will be provided. For the further development and improvement of the road transport infrastructure and transport services for the population of the city of Djizzak, the following activities are planned for the I stage (2014–2020) already: punching of the northern suburban motor road (7.2 km); construction of the site from the motor road 4R-36 to 4R-38 (1.3 km); reconstruction of the motor roads 4R-35 (7.0 km), 4R-36 (4.0 km, Bogdon str.) and Kaliya str. (1.0 km); overhaul and reconstruction of Mustakillik, Tashkent, Buyuk Turon, Temiryulchilar, Uzbekistan, Sayilgokh, Ravatlik, A. , Sh. Rashidov streets, etc. Road and rail transport facilities and (bus terminal, bus station, railway station) in the Master Plan receive additional development in accordance with the calculations made in order to provide the population with these types of services.

The Master Plan, pursuant to the Road Transport Communications Development Program and the long-term development plan for the period of 2014-2015, provides for the establishment of bus stations at the entrances to the city, that will accept suburban routes with a transfer of passengers to the city routes, and thus the city-wide highways will be unloaded from external passenger traffic. For storage and maintenance of the bus and taxi zone "A", the area of 6.0 hectares is reserved for accommodating 420 passenger buses and 780 passenger taxis. Commonly-used green plants in the city are represented by a central park located in the area of KhalklarDustligi Avenue, parks of planning and residential areas, as well as squares, boulevards, landscaped avenues along the main pedestrian routes connecting the centers of residential and planning areas.

56

As a rule, these pedestrian routes are laid along with the main irrigators and collectors, as well as along the main highways of the city. Types of the planned park areas will be differentiated by age, i.e., children's parks, parks for mixed ages, where it is planned to locate sports and recreation complexes, zoo and botanical corners. The creation of parks, squares, and landscaping of highways in the city will improve the living conditions of people in a hot climate. At the same time, it is necessary to note that the existing street network and the existing external directions of the city highways did not always allow applying isolation from the adverse impact of the Djizzak steppe and wind regime. In this regard, the project has adopted the system of both latitudinal and meridional green boulevards along the main streets and green lanes along the bypass highways of the city. The unified landscaping system used in the project, which includes power transmission line corridors, sanitary protection zones from industrial enterprises and cemeteries, and river embankments, reduces the adverse impact on the population’s living. Landscaping of not less than 60 - 70% of sanitary protection zones from industrial territories, utility and storage facilities and structures, cemeteries takes an important place in the improvement of the city territories. Considering that there is a large number of cemeteries in the city that have to be closed for use, as there are no sanitary protection zones around them before residential and public buildings, the Master Plan proposes to select areas to house new cemeteries outside the city limits within 0,5- hour availability. Around the cemeteries, which will enter the territory of the city during its development, the Master Plan outlines the creation of landscaped sanitary protection zones, which territories can be used to accommodate landscaping, orchards, vineyards, etc. in these zones.

7. ENVIRONMENTAL AND TOWN-PLANNING DEVELOPMENT

Improvement of the environment and ecological living conditions; improvement of the ecological situation due to the improvement of the transport infrastructure, technical and engineering re-equipment of the construction and energy complexes, an increase in the greened and flooded areas up to statutory indicators; strengthening control over the quality of the living environment (soil, atmosphere, water); improvement of soil and hydrogeological conditions of the city area through the construction of horizontal and vertical drainage, concreting channel beds; organization of a groundwater monitoring system; restoration of worn out and laying of new water supply networks; creation of sanitary protection zones from the industrial enterprises and cemeteries and protective zones from waterways at the first stage - 38.4 hectares, and 41.4 hectares for the estimated period; organization of sanitary protection zones with greenery arrays occupying not less than 60 - 70% of the territory along the borders of the communal storage area, urban development enterprises, the railway; organization of increasing the width of a carriageway of a number of roads, removal of transit vehicles from the main streets, construction of ring roads, increasing the area of greening along the roads in order to reduce accidents and concentration of exhaust gases; closing of the existing cemeteries in the city with the organization of new ones outside the city within 0.5-hour availability for the population; reconstruction of the existing sewers and sewage treatment plants with the construction of new collectors in the areas of prospective development; organization of city protection from flood waters by creating dams along with the river Sangzor, its channel’s partial straightening and deepening, as well as embanking of especially significant facilities of the city. 57

During the survey of alignments of proposed new sewerage networks, existing sewerage networks to be washed and building of chlorination plant located at existing wastewater treatment plant we found out the following:

Alignments of above mentioned new sewerage networks will be located within roads and within the right of way of roads which are under the management of the city hokimiyat. Existing sewerage networks which are proposed for washing had been constructed in 1960 – 1970 and due to the long period of operation, they were clogged. Building of chlorination plant which is proposed for equipping is located on the area of the existing wastewater treatment plant. Implementation of the above mentioned works will not entail: 1. Impact on to agricultural lands of farm enterprises and households 2. Impact on to buildings and structures of people and businesses 3. Cut of fruit or non fruit trees or damage plantings which belong to local people 4. Difficulties for businesses to implement their activities.
