EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. The City Region Development Project (CRDP, the Project) will be financed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and is being formulated as a project loan using the sector approach to be implemented over a six-year period (January 2011 to December 2016). This document is a draft Resettlement Plan prepared for the Ashulia Industrial and Residential Clusters subproject. It is based on a feasibility level study and preliminary engineering design and will be updated at the final detailed engineering stage. The Resettlement Plan is prepared in accordance with the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009 (SPS), Government of Bangladesh’s (the Government) policy, i.e., the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Ordinance, 1982 (ARIPO), and the Resettlement Framework adopted for CRDP. It is classified as Category B according to ADB’s SPS as minimal land acquisition and resettlement is required for this subproject.

2. The Ashulia subproject consists of three components including (i) water supply and sanitation (five production tube wells and 30 km distribution pipeline); (ii) improvement of two access roads (7.15 km); and (iii) road side drainage system (6 km). Design measures were adopted to minimize involuntary resettlement taking into consideration available Right of Way (ROW) for roads, drainage, and pipelines.

3. Summary of Resettlement Impacts. A total of 11 households are affected by the subproject. The five proposed production tube wells will be constructed on private land amounting to 182 square meters (sq.m.) and affecting 5 households with 11 fruit bearing mango trees. There are no buildings/structures affected. These five households are considered to be economically displaced households. A total of six hawkers and squatters will also be affected and the impacts are limited to temporary economic displacement and relocation. Of the 11 affected households, five are considered vulnerable as they earn incomes below the poverty line. The five vulnerable households are hawkers. The resettlement cost estimate includes eligible compensation, resettlement assistance, as outlined in the entitlement matrix, and support cost for Resettlement Plan implementation.

4. Public Consultations. Consultations were carried out during Resettlement Plan preparation and will continue throughout the subproject cycle. A grievance redress mechanism (GRM) will be made available as explained in this Resettlement Plan.

5. Implementation Arrangements. The subproject will be managed and implemented through a Project Implementation Unit (PIU) based in Savar Upazila Parishad with the overall support and guidance of the Project Management Coordination Unit (PMCU) based at the Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) Headquarters in Dhaka. The detailed design, preparation and implementation of the capital investments will be supported by (i) consultancy support (both international and national); and (ii) technical support from LGED and the Department of Public Health Engineering (DPHE). The PIU will implement the Resettlement Plan with support from the PMCU and consultants. The PIU will provide adequate and appropriate replacement structures or cash compensation at full replacement cost, adequate compensation for partially damaged structures, and relocation assistance, as per the entitlement matrix within this Resettlement Plan. Income restoration assistance to the affected persons includes both short and medium term strategies. The Government will provide all funds for land and resettlement in a timely manner.

6. Resettlement Plan Implementation and Monitoring. All compensation is to be paid prior to displacement (both physical and economic) however, ongoing income rehabilitation activities will continue after construction begins. Written confirmation of full compensation to ii displaced persons must be made to ADB prior to commencement of civil works in sections ready for construction. The estimated total period of the implementation of the Resettlement Plan is 13 months. Monthly monitoring reports will be submitted by PIU to PMCU. PMCU will consolidate monthly reports into semi-annual monitoring reports or as part of the regular project reporting and will submit to ADB.

I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A. Overview

1. The City Region Development Project (CRDP, the Project) emphasizes economic growth in Dhaka and Khulna city regions of Bangladesh through (i) creation of an enabling environment towards improved governance and capacity building of the local governments; and (ii) prioritized investments in infrastructure sectors in the two regions. The objectives of CRDP are (i) to improve the regional economic and social context through long-term development plans and investment programs, set within an institutional and regulatory context that will ensure implementation and review; (ii) to improve the capacity and mandate of local government to govern and to invest in improved economic activity at local level; (iii) to improve the economic context for sustainable commercial and industrial growth; and (iv) to improve the economic and social needs of the urban population, as an inclusive aspect of the CRDP. The subprojects are largely built around ‘integrated area planning’ principles which enhance economic activity in the regional context and provide opportunities for investment. The vision of the Ashulia subproject is to optimize the economic potential of the Ashulia Industrial and Residential Cluster in a way that is sustainable and to the benefit of industrialists, traders, local businesses, residents and workers in the Clusters and the neighboring area.

B. Subproject Components

2. The subproject identifies targeted capital investments in the Ashulia Industrial and Residential Cluster located in Savar Upazila referred to here as the Ashulia Cluster. The Cluster consists of three urban centers formed from the Ashulia, Yearpur and Damsona Unions. Ashulia is located next to Uttara (a residential model town) within Dhaka City Corporation (DCC) boundary near Yearpur and Damsona. The subproject components aim at priority upgrading and expansion of urban services, including (i) water supply and sanitation; (ii) drainage and flood protection; and (iii) roads and highways. The proposals are entirely concerned with activities which address the most acute needs for better urban services.

1. Water Supply and Sanitation

3. Based on the results of preliminary design, it is proposed to install five production/tube wells as a priority, together with 30 km of distribution pipelines serving a population of approximately 80,000 persons, with the assumption that one production well will serve about 15,000 or more people. In selecting the sites for the five priority production wells, cluster communities with low-income residents living in sub-standard and informal housing were given highest priority. The five proposed productions tube wells are situated at Basaid Bazar (Ashulia), Khejur Bagan (Ashulia), Modhupur/Faruk Nagar (Dhamsona), Vadail (Dhamsona) and Montos (Yearpur). A brief description of the proposed five production tube wells are described below in Table 1.

2. Drainage

4. There are two interlinked priority areas for drainage and road investment as identified in Table 2. Nearly 6 km of drains will be constructed along the two identified roads which become inundated by the rainwater and industrial wastewater. Design of the drains will be prepared by the project consultant as part of the detailed design work.

3. Access Roads

5. A package of two roads is recommended for road and drainage improvements. These two roads make an important contribution to the economic development of the Clusters in the Ashulia area. Improvements include widening within ROW, strengthening, and resurfacing. Road safety measures will be integrated in the design to ensure safety to pedestrians. The two access roads are (i) Dhaka-Aricha (RHD) at 20 Mile-Jerabo Bazar Yearpur UP Road; and (ii) Nabinagar-Kaliakoir (RHD) Road at Sreepur-Kashimpur GC Road, as described further below.

6. Road 1: Dhaka-Aricha (RHD) at 20 Mile-Jerabo Bazar Yearpur UP Road. The road length is 5.65 km and existing width is 6 m and connects Dhaka-Aricha RHD National Highway at the 20 mile marker to Tongi-EPZ road at Jerabo Bazar. Large and medium industries like Incepta, DEKKO, Maskot Group and many others are located alongside the road. The condition in some parts of the road is poor and requires immediate improvement. Due to movement of heavy traffic, the road is proposed to be strengthened up to 40 mm bituminous carpeting with a 6 m double lane carriageway pavement. To protect the road from inundation by industrial waste water and rainwater, new drainage (4 km) alongside the road will be provided, which will include the length from Jirabo to Kondul Bag (1.5 km) and Koturia to Kondul Bag (2.5 km).

7. Road 2: Nabinagar-Kaliakoir (RHD) at Sreepur-Kashimpur GC Road. The total road length is 6 km and existing width is 4.9 m and connects Nabinagar-Kaliakoir RHD Road with 3

Kashimpur GC, and Norsinghapur - Konabari RHD Road. Many large and medium industries like Samsher Knit, Square Textile, Mother Textile and the Atomic Energy Commission are located along the roadside. Of the length, 1.5 km up to Biman Poultry is proposed for inclusion as part of the subproject. Due to heavy traffic the road is proposed to be strengthened up to 40 mm bituminous carpeting with the 6m double lane carriageway pavement. To protect the road from inundation by industrial waste water and rainwater, drainage (2 km) along the proposed section will be constructed.

II. SCOPE OF LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT

8. There are 11 households affected by the subproject activities – five landowners from proposed tube wells, and six hawkers/vendors within the ROW. A summary of impacts on land acquisition and resettlement are described below in Tables 3 and 4.

9. Tube Wells. Minimum land acquisition is required for the proposed production tube wells which have small land requirements. The five proposed production tube wells will be constructed on private land amounting to be a total of 182 sq.m. which will be required for permanent acquisition affecting five households, 11 fruit bearing mango trees and no buildings/structure. These five households are considered to be economically displaced households. The 30 km of distribution pipelines will not require land acquisition. The distribution pipe lines neither will have permanent nor temporary impact on land acquisition and resettlement. The distribution pipeline will be laid under the ground and will not have any impact on structures except some minor inconvenience during construction. Minor disturbance will be avoided by keeping the night time construction and works during off-peak hours. Further measures to avoid and minimize access disruptions to businesses will be implemented as per the subproject environmental management plans.1

10. Roads and Drainage. The proposed interlinked components of road improvement (7.15 km) and drainage improvement (6 km) will not require any permanent land acquisition and resettlement as all construction activities will be confined to the existing ROW. However, few hawkers and vendors will be affected though these are limited to temporary economic displacement. A total of six hawkers were identified in preliminary surveys. These hawkers are mostly small shop vendors having temporary structures (e.g., bamboo sheds and small wooden kiosks).

III. SOCIOECONOMIC INFORMATION AND PROFILE

11. Structured census survey questionnaires (Appendixes 1 and 2) were used to collect detailed information on the impact of permanent land acquisition and temporary impacts hawkers and vendors in the subproject area. The surveys were conducted in June 2010.2

12. A total number of 11 households are being economically displaced by the subproject which consists of 5 households losing a small piece of agricultural land and 6 hawkers/vendors. Each is considered to be economically displaced as they will be losing some basic economic activities. The land owners are mostly occupied in agriculture, while hawkers in small business. Socioeconomic details of landowners are in Table 5. None of the displaced households belong to any Indigenous People or ethnic minority group as most of the displaced persons are Muslims. The census survey revealed that five hawkers fall under the vulnerable category as they earn income considered below the poverty line. Following section provides a socioeconomic profile of the displaced persons.

13. The total land required for proposed five production tube well is 2.52 katha (or 182 sq.m.). The land contains no structures and is characterized as agricultural and unirrigated. There are five landowners affected, each holding legal title. The requirement of land for each production well is minimal and no land owners will lose more than 10% of the productive asset and hence, none of the five households are significantly affected. There will be a total of 11 fruit bearing trees (mango) affected. There are no encroachers and squatters present in the affected land.

a Below Poverty line (BPL) has been calculated on the basis of general formula which is 1$ per day per person. The average family size in the subproject area is 4.9 and the $1= Tk72. Therefore, the threshold for poverty line has been considered as Tk10,584 incomes per month per household. Source: Census Survey, June 2010.

14. Sex. The total number of displaced persons is 44 out of which 21 (38.89%) are male and 33 are female (61.11%). The average family size is 4.90.

2 The survey team was trained by the international resettlement specialist consultant and the survey was closely monitored on a regular basis. The census survey included various aspects including (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) temporary impacts on the hawkers’ business activities. 7

15. Average Monthly Income of the displaced persons. A majority of households earn between Tk9,000 to Tk11,000 per month. Details of average monthly income are in Table 6 below.

16. Hawker Kiosks. The types of temporary structures are classified based on the type of construction, their usability and the age of the structure. There is no permanent foundation or construction materials being used except some bamboo pillars, tripol/plastic or thatched structures, and corrugated iron sheets. Details on the type of materials are given in Table 7. The total area of these temporary structures is 41 sq.m. and the average area has been calculated to be 7 sq. m. for each structure. Therefore, these can be easily shifted to other locations without much disruption. It is found that the age of most structures are below ten years old, with most being less than five. Out of the total surveyed hawkers/vendors, it is noted that five are fully affected and only one structure is partially affected.

18. Gender. During disbursement of assistance and compensation, priority will be given to female headed households. Joint ownership in the name of husband and wife will be offered in case of non-female headed households where the asset was acquired during their marriage.

IV. INFORMATION DISCLOSURE, CONSULTATION, AND PARTICIPATION

A. Public Consultation

19. During subproject preparation, consultations were held with the official representatives of the Savar Upazila, apart from the communities in the project area. The issues covered during these consultations included selection of subprojects and identification of key issues including addressing the current gaps in provision of basic services and improvement of urban environment conditions in the Savar urban area. These consultations (Table 9) provided an understanding of the needs and concerns of the project communities and the relevant stakeholders. Additionally, focus group discussions were also conducted with the local community especially with the displaced persons and the summary of these consultations is given in Appendix 3.

B. Information Disclosure

20. Project information will be continually disseminated through disclosure of resettlement planning documents. Resettlement information leaflets containing information on compensation, entitlement and resettlement management adopted for the subproject will be made available in local language (Bangla) and the same will be distributed to DPs. The PIU Resettlement Support staff (RSS) will keep the displaced persons 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 especially, the market place which will be easily accessible to the displaced persons. The summary of the Resettlement Plan and the entitlement matrix will be translated into the local language; disclosed to the displaced persons; and made available at PIU, local offices and libraries (or other pubic places, and at the LGED and DPHE offices. A copy of the Resettlement Plan will be disclosed on the LGED and ADB website.

C. Continued Consultation and Participation

21. For continued consultations, the following steps are to be taken:

resettlement component of the project will be placed for public display at the PCMU and PIU offices. (iv) All monitoring and evaluation reports of the resettlement components of the project will be disclosed in the same manner as that of the Resettlement Plan. (v) Key features of the entitlements will be displayed along the project corridor. (vi) The PMCU and PIU will conduct information dissemination sessions at major intersections and solicit the help of the local community leaders to encourage the participation of the displaced persons in Resettlement Plan implementation. (vii) Attempts will be made to ensure that vulnerable groups understand the process and to take their specific needs into account.

22. The details on consultation process and disclosure at various phases of project development including the responsible agency are described in Appendix 5.

V. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISMS

23. A grievance redress mechanism (GRM) will be established in Ashulia soon after project commencement. The first level and most accessible and immediate venue for the fastest resolve of grievances is the PIU, chiefly through the RSS and Project Manager, with assistance from the Resettlement Specialist (National and International-NRS and IRS) of the Management, Design and Supervision Consultant (MDSC). The contact phone number will be posted in the project areas. Grievances will be resolved through continuous interactions with affected persons and the PIU will answer queries and resolve grievances regarding various issues including land acquisition, structures acquisition, livelihood impacts, entitlements, and assistance. Corrective measures will be undertaken at the field-level itself within seven days. All grievances will be documented with full information of the person and issue.

24. Should the grievance remain unresolved, the PIU's Project Manager, will activate the second level of the GRM by referring the issue (with written documentation) to the local GRC of the Upazila, who will, based on review of the grievances, address them in consultation with the RSS of the PIU and PMCU, and affected persons. A hearing will be called, if necessary, where the affected person can present his/her concern/issues. The process will promote conflict resolution through mediation. The local GRC will consist of the following persons: (i) Chief Executive Officer of the Upazila (GRC Chair); (ii) representative of the head of the Upazila; (iii) representative of the affected persons; (iv) official of the land registry department; (v) official of the Department of Environment (DOE)’s divisional office; (vi) town planner of the Upazila; and (vii) Environmental Specialist/RSS of the PIU. The local GRC shall meet twice a month, unless the Project Director informs that there are no grievances to address, or they shall meet as needed as per the severity of the grievance. The local GRC will suggest corrective measures at the field level and assign responsibilities for implementing its decisions.

25. The functions of the local GRC are as follows: (i) provide support to displaced persons on problems arising from land acquisition (temporary or permanent); asset acquisition; and eligibility for entitlements, compensation and assistance; (ii) record grievances of displaced persons, categorize and prioritize them and provide solutions within a month; and (iii) report to the aggrieved parties about developments regarding their grievances and decisions of the GRC.

Environmental/Resettlement Officer of the PMCU; (iii) representative from Land Ministry; (iv) representative from DOE; (v) representative of the displaced persons; and (vi) Environmental / Social Safeguards officer of the PIU.

27. The GRC at the PMCU level shall meet based on the receipt of grievances, and the meeting shall be convened within 7 days of receipt of the grievance by the PMCU, and grievances redressed with 15 days. The Environmental/Resettlement Safeguards Officer of the PMCU will be responsible for processing and placing all papers before the PMCU GRC, recording decisions, issuing minutes of the meetings and taking follow up action to see that formal orders are issued and the decisions carried out.

28. In the event that a grievance is not addressed by the PIU, local GRC, or the PMCU GRC, the displaced person can seek legal redress of the grievance in the appropriate Courts (the fourth level of the GRM). A grievance redress mechanism and procedure is depicted in Figure 1.

VI. LEGAL FRAMEWORK

29. This Resettlement Plan is prepared based on all applicable legal and policy frameworks of the Government (i.e., the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Ordinance 1982 [ARIPO]) and ADB's SPS. A summary of applicable acts and policies is presented provided in the Project's Resettlement Framework.

30. The Government's policy through ARIPO does not cover project-affected persons without titles or ownership record, such as informal settler/squatters, occupiers, and informal tenants and lease-holders (without document) and does not ensure replacement value of the property acquired. The ARIPO has no provision of resettlement assistance for restoration of livelihoods of affected persons except for the legal compensation. Gaps between national law and ADB policy are identified and bridging measures are included in the entitlement matrix for the project, described below. ADB will not finance the project if it does not comply with its SPS nor will it finance the project if it does not comply with its host country's social and environmental laws. Where discrepancy between the ADB and Government policies exist, the ADB policy will prevail. Moreover, the SPS applies to all ADB-financed and/or ADB-administered sovereign projects, and their components regardless of the source of financing, including investment projects funded by a loan; and/or a grant; and/or other means.

VII. ENTITLEMENTS, ASSISTANCE AND BENEFITS

A. Eligibility

31. All displaced persons who are identified in the project-impacted areas on the cut-off date3 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 licensed and non-licensed vendors. Compensation eligibility is limited by a cut-off date as set for this project on the day of the beginning of the detailed census during the detailed design. Displaced persons 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 (60 days), requested to vacate premises and dismantle affected structures prior to project implementation.

B. Entitlements

32. The entitlement matrix in Table 10 summarizes the main types of losses and the corresponding entitlements in accordance with the Government and ADB policies.

C. Assessment of Compensation Unit Values

33. Land. All lands proposed to be acquired under CRDP will be compensated as per replacement cost consistent with both the Government and ADB’s SPS. The design consultants will prepare site plan overlays (based on detailed designs) on the cadastral map to define the area and parcels to be acquired. This is to form part of the application to the Ministry of Land (MOL).4 The MOL will then assign the task to the concerned Deputy Commissioner in the project areas. The Deputy Commissioner will then decide the cost of land through its property valuation advisory committee5 which will serve as the valuation committee.

3 The cut-off date for title holders is based according to the formal notification, and for non-titleholders the date of the census survey during the detailed design. Those who encroach into the subproject area after the cut-off date will not be entitled to compensation or any other assistance. The PIU will take video and photo documentation to ensure entitled persons on the cut-off date. 4 The application to MOL includes a detailed statement specifying whether the land mentioned in the application is needed for public or private purpose, the area of the land, sketch-map, purpose for which it could be used. 5 Under the Project, a representative from the displaced persons is required to be a member of the property valuation advisory committee to ensure compensation for assets is at replacement value.

6 The rate of compensation for acquired housing, land and other assets will be calculated at full replacement costs. The calculation of full replacement cost is described in Section B.V.c in this Resettlement Framework. Where market conditions are absent or in a formative stage, the borrower/client will consult with the displaced persons and host populations to obtain adequate information about recent land transactions, land value by types, land titles, land use, cropping patterns and crop production, availability of land in the project area and region, and other related information. The borrower/client will also collect baseline data on housing, house types, and construction materials. Qualified and experienced experts will undertake the valuation of acquired assets. In applying this method

of valuation, depreciation of structures and assets is not to be taken into account. 13 7 Vulnerable households/displaced persons may include female-headed households, disable-headed households, indigenous persons/ethnic minority-headed households and Below Poverty Line households

34. The land valuation process will consist of two different values – (i) the sale deed record, and (ii) expected price. The PIU will be responsible for providing the recorded rate from the Local Land Registry Office (i.e., the sale deed record). The PIU will consult with willing buyers/sellers of the area to collect the expected price of land. The PIU will then submit the two rates to the valuation committee. Based on these rates the valuation committee will derive a price which will be called as the current market rate. Additionally, the cost for tax and stamp duties etc. will be added to the current marker as derived by the valuation committee which will finally be considered as the replacement cost.

35. Private Building and Structure. The compensation for houses, buildings and other immovable properties will be determined on the basis of replacement cost as on date without depreciation. The PIU with assistance from the Public Works Department (PWD) will determine the replacement cost of structures. PIU will engage experts form PWD and the experts will carry out on the field assessment of each property and will submit the report to the Deputy Commissioner office. PIU will ensure that the assessment is done keeping in consideration the market price and consultation with the owners by assessing sources, types and cost of materials, usage of the building and the cost related to labor and transportation etc.

36. Trees and Crops. The PIU will conduct the survey on unit prices of trees and crops affected by temporary or permanent land acquisition, in consultation with agriculture/horticulture experts. The compensation for crops will be calculated based the current market rate. The PIU will collect data on crops in the project area from the local department of agricultural extension. Subsequently, the unit/market rate for each crop will be determined in consultation with the department of agricultural extension. The unit prices for compensation of different species of fruit trees will be based on the market values of their fruits. For trees producing timber their unit prices will be based on species type, age, and quality. The cost for such trees will be collected after consultation with the divisional forest office.

37. Business or Sources of Income. The PIU will conduct a detailed census survey which is to include actual monthly income of the displaced persons followed by a verification of the income data based on the tax payment (for titled business owners). In the absence of the authentic income proof, the unit price will be collected from the displaced person during the survey.

VIII. INCOME RESTORATION AND REHABILITATION

A. Basic Provision for Relocation

38. The basic provision for loss of land has been taken as the cash compensation at market price which is equivalent to replacement cost. Advanced notice (60 days) will be provided for harvesting crops, or if harvesting is not possible, then the farmers will be compensated at replacement cost for such crops. Trees will be compensated at market value. All compensation is to be paid before displacement occurs. The land owners losing a small piece of land will not require any relocation as they will not be physically displaced nor they will be severely affected. The PIU will attempt to find suitable alternative locations for hawkers including creating potential formal market spaces where feasible. The PIU will provide adequate and appropriate replacement structures or cash compensation at full replacement cost, adequate compensation for partially damaged structures, and relocation assistance, as per applicable according to the entitlement matrix. The PIU will compensate non-title holders for the loss of assets other than land, such as dwellings, and also for other improvements to the land, at full replacement cost. The entitlements to the non-titleholders will be given only if they occupied the land or structures in the project area prior to the cut-off date. The preliminary number of displaced hawkers is quite

16 minimal (only six) in the subproject area and the consultation with these hawkers and vendors revealed that they will be willing to shift on their own provided they get some compensation. To help the hawkers losing structures in getting entitlements and relocating themselves, a relocation strategy will be adopted in the subproject including (i) all compensation will be paid and other resettlement entitlements will be before physical displacement; (ii) at least 60 days advance notice will be given; (iii) the PIU and RSS will assist displaced persons during verification of assets and will provide necessary counseling on payment of compensation and assistance; (iv) in close consultation with the displaced persons, the PIU RSS will fix the shifting dates agreed with the displaced persons in writing and the arrangements desired by the displaced persons with respect to their entitlements; and (v) in case of self relocation, the PIU will assist the displaced persons in finding alternative site within the area if so desired by the displaced persons.

B. Income and Livelihood Rehabilitation

39. Income restoration assistance to the displaced persons includes both short and medium term strategies. Short term income restoration strategies are for immediate assistance during relocation and include the following:

(i) Compensation for land, structures, crops, fruit bearing trees, and all other lost assets is paid in full before displacement occurs; (ii) Assistance in finding replacement land or alternate location for continuation of livelihood/living arrangements; (iii) Where provision of alternative sites is not feasible (for temporary impacts), compensation of lost income for period of disruption (if less than three months) or lump sum for three months lost income (at replacement cost) or minimum wage rates (whichever is higher); (iv) Shifting allowance for reestablishing business elsewhere based on actual cost of moving/unloading; (v) 60 days’ advance notice to shift business or harvest standing seasonal crops (if harvest is not possible, compensation for share of standing crops at market rates); (vi) One time assistance for lost income based on three months lost income (at replacement cost) or minimum wage rates (whichever is higher); (vii) Consideration for project employment; (viii) For vulnerable households, additional subsistence allowance equivalent to Tk10,000/HH for restoring or enhancing their livelihood. Vulnerable households will be prioritized in any project employment; (ix) Provision of temporary access where possible to continue business; and (x) Restoration of affected land, structure, utilities, common property resource for continuation of business after construction is completed.

40. Medium-term income restoration activities will include skill development training based on need. The PIU will identify suitable local training institutes and pay fees directly to the training institution and provide the names of entitled person(s).

41. Where necessary, training may include (i) capacity building, enterprise training, and facilitating economic activities to landowners; and (ii) training for self employment to agricultural laborers. Training for self-employment and skill development which may include but not limited to (i) plumbing; (ii) electrical; (iii) automobile repair; and (iv) electronic repair and service, etc. Training will be imparted to any willing displaced person losing income or livelihood.

42. During the construction stage the displaced persons, especially vulnerable displaced persons, will be given preference over others in being engaged in project activities suitable to their skills. In order to make the displaced persons employable, the PIU will identify the required skills for the construction activities prior to the commencement of the construction and provide the required training to the displaced persons.

IX. RESETTLEMENT BUDGET AND FINANCING PLAN

43. The resettlement cost estimate for the Ashulia subproject (Table 11) includes eligible compensation, resettlement assistance, as outlined in the entitlement matrix, and support cost for Resettlement Plan implementation. The Government will be responsible for releasing the funds for resettlement in a timely manner. The total resettlement cost for the subproject is Tk9.66 million. The cost items are outlined below:

(i) Compensation for land; (ii) Compensation for fruit bearing trees; (iii) Compensation for structures (hawkers/vendors) and other immovable assets at their replacement cost; (iv) Assistance for stamp duty etc for legal titleholders for land acquisition; (v) Assistance in lieu of the loss of income and livelihood; (vi) Assistance for shifting of the structures; (vii) Training allowance; and (viii) Special assistance to vulnerable groups for their livelihood restoration.

X. INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS

A. Project Management Coordination Unit

44. The LGED will be the executing agency responsible for overall guidance and project implementation. A PMCU headed by a Project Director will implement the project investments and will be responsible for overall planning, management, coordination, supervision and progress monitoring of the CRDP in the two regions. The PMCU will ensure compliance with assurances, including safeguards and preparing and submitting reports, resettlement plan monitoring updates. To ensure effective implementation of the land acquisition and resettlement aspects, two full time PMCU resettlement safeguard officers will be recruited, including one Resettlement Compliance Officer primarily responsible for compliance with legal requirements of the Government, and one Resettlement Surveyor responsible for overseeing PIU preparation of the Resettlement Plan for subprojects and data collection. The MDSC will recruit one international and one national resettlement specialist to assist the PMCU in this regard. The PMCU will review monthly reports submitted by PIUs and will consolidate them into quarterly reports to ADB. Corrective actions to be taken when necessary based on close monitoring and results of grievance redress process.

B. Project Implementation Unit

45. The subproject will be managed and implemented through the PIU based in Savar Upazila Parishad The PIU will be responsible for carrying out the detailed design of the subprojects and updating Resettlement Plans for the sample subprojects and prepare new Resettlement Plans for future subprojects under the sector approach The PIU will ensure compliance with safeguards requirements of the Government and ADB. The PIU will be responsible for day-to-day monitoring of the project progress, including the implementation of the resettlement provisions in the project.

46. The capacity to implement safeguards planning and implementation at the PIU level is not currently adequate. Therefore, it is proposed that resettlement support staff (or facilitators) at the PIU level will be recruited. The number of resettlement support staff at each PIU will be commensurate to the scale of involuntary resettlement impacts (e.g., the greater the impact, the greater number of support staff needed). All PIU and PMCU safeguards staff will undergo training conducted by the consultant team’s resettlement specialists. Each PIU will prepare monitoring reports on all aspects concerning to resettlement planning and implementation of the land acquisition and resettlement issues and report to the PMCU on a monthly basis.

C. Management, Design and Supervision Consultants

47. The MDSC will hire one IRS and one NRS. They will be responsible for updating/finalizing the Resettlement Plans of sample subprojects in accordance with this Resettlement Framework and based on the detailed engineering design. These specialists will also prepare new Resettlement Plans for future subprojects under the sector approach consistent with this Resettlement Framework. This will be done in close coordination with PIU resettlement support staff and PMCU resettlement officers. The IRS and the NRS will assist in the overall supervision of the projects and ensure all plans are implemented in a smooth and timely manner in accordance with the provisions of the Resettlement Plan. They will also prepare and implement training and capacity development programs for resettlement planning for the PIU and PMCU safeguards staff (see section below on Training and Capacity Building), and will closely work with the PMCU and PIUs to ensure displaced persons are compensated before displacement occurs, including ongoing rehabilitation measures. Further details on 19 agencies responsible for Resettlement Plan activities are in Table 12 and the organization chart for Resettlement Plan implementation is depicted in Figure 2.

XI. IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE

48. Land acquisition, compensation and relocation of displaced persons cannot commence until the Resettlement Plan has been cleared by ADB. All entitlements are to be paid prior to displacement. Written confirmation is required by the PMCU to ADB stating that all compensation has been paid to displaced persons. Only then can construction works begin on sections where compensation has been paid. The project will be implemented over six years (January 2011 to December 2016). The implementation of the Resettlement Plan will include: (i) identification of cut-off date and notification; (ii) verification of losses and extent of impacts; (iii) finalization of entitlements and distribution of identity cards (iv) consultations with displaced persons on their needs and priorities; and (v) resettlement, provision of compensation and assistance, and income restoration for displaced persons. The expected implementation schedule for a subproject is given in Table 13.

XII. MONITORING AND REPORTING

49. The extent of monitoring activities will be commensurate with the project’s risks and impacts. Monthly monitoring reports to be submitted by PIU to PMCU. PMCU to consolidate monthly reports into quarterly monitoring reports to ADB. These reports should form a part of the project progress reports submitted by PMCU to ADB.

50. The objectives of monitoring are to: (i) ensure that the standard of living of displaced persons are restored or improved; (ii) ascertain whether activities are progressing as per schedule and the timelines are being met; (iii) assess if compensation, rehabilitation measures are sufficient; (iv) identify problems or potential issues; and (v) identify methods to rapidly to mitigate problems. The above information will be collected by executing and implementing agencies through its PMCU and respective PIU which is responsible for monitoring the day-to- day resettlement activities of the project through the following instruments:

(i) Review of census information for all displaced persons; (ii) Consultation and informal interviews with displaced persons; (iii) In-depth case studies; (iv) Sample survey of displaced persons; (v) Key informant interviews; and (vi) Community public meetings.

51. Internal Monitoring. The internal monitoring by PMCU/PIU will include (i) administrative monitoring to ensure that implementation is on schedule and problems are dealt with on a timely basis; (ii) socio-economic monitoring during and after the relocation process to ensure that people are settled and recovering. This will utilize the baseline information established by the socio-economic survey of displaced persons undertaken during subproject preparation; and (iii) overall monitoring whether recovery has taken place successfully and on time. Monitoring will also include the following:

(i) Communication with and documentation of reactions from displaced persons. (ii) Information from displaced persons on entitlements, options, alternative developments, etc. (iii) Valuation of properties. (iv) Usages of grievance redress mechanism. (v) Disbursement of compensation amounts and all assistance. (vi) Physical progress of the Resettlement Plan implementation which will include relocation of displaced persons and affected community properties.

52. The indicators for achievement of objectives during Resettlement Plan implementation are of two kinds such as (i) Process Indicators (Indicating project inputs, expenditure, staff deployment, etc.); and (ii) Output Indicators: Indicating results in terms of numbers of displaced persons compensated, area of temporarily occupied lands restored with topsoil (and other pre- project features), number of displaced persons provided with skills training, etc. Input and output indicators related to physical progress of the work will include items such as:

(i) Training of executing and implementing agencies 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 displaced persons completed.

SUMMARY OF PUBLIC CONSULTATION AND FOCUS GROUP DISCUSSIONS

Date of Consultations: 04.07.2010 Number of Consultations: 03 numbers Place of Consultations: Amtola, Kath gora, Jamgora, Gonak Bari (road and pump house location) Ashulia Number of Participants: 30

Q. No. Issues Raised Participants’ Opinion, Comments and Suggestions 1 Have you heard about CRDP Most of the participants have heard or informed about the CRDP (City Region Development Project. But many of them think development of roads is necessary. In Project)? some location it is essential due to industrialization and roads are being used for different purposes. Besides some walk ways are needed for a number of workers of the industries as because everyday thousands of female and male workers also use same roads. Beside, in some area people claimed for the development of drainage system. Also some community people also want water supply at home. 2 If yes, where from They have heard from the local leaders and officials. Many participants guessed that there must some road development which would come in the up coming future and also desired for the development of Ashulia as a growth centre and a new prospecting city 3 General perception about the All most all participants have appreciated the project activities. They project and the awareness about thought the project will bring a tremendous development for the locality. the proposed project. The entire Ashulia economic activities are based on production of the industries. Majority people of the community are migrated from different districts and working in those industries. Therefore community people have demanded redevelopment of the road and drainage system for the betterment of the community as well as economic development of the country. 4 Do others in this locality support According to the participants opinion the project will bring positive result this project? for people and there is no doubt about people’s cordial support to this project. Even some of them said that they will help the implementing agencies by any terms of condition. Only a very few people said they will ask proper compensation if their land or structure get affected due to the impact of the project. 5 Any critical issue or concern by No, there are no critical issues related to this project. In general the the local people regarding the entire roads in Ashulia are very wide and there is no need for project? acquisition. Only few trees and a very small number of structures will be temporarily affected during construction. Besides, for the construction of production tube wells/ pump house the private lands will be required and community people are eagerly like to provide those lands for bundling water pump. 6 Any criteria you would like to Some participants have requested to serve water to every house hold see considered during project and in some extent to the poor community in law rate. Also asked for design, construction and some water point in the road sides for the vulnerable people who would operation stage? not be able to pay change for water.

7 Employment Potential in the There are huge employment opportunities of the construction of the project which is of benefit to project such as increase in petty shop business and employment of village local labor. Appendix 3 31

Q. No. Issues Raised Participants’ Opinion, Comments and Suggestions 8 Ethnic Minorities /Indigenous No peoples composition (If there are Indigenous People, please mention about the names of the IP and number of households) 9 Numbers of Industrial Units in Huge industries are d in Ashulia, these are various types of industries the Mohallah/town and and also Export Processing Zone located in the area. surrounding area

10 Is the Area Electrified Yes, the major proportion of the area has electrical connection provided by Pauroshava but still there is some area has no street light. 11 Source of drinking water Tube-well water is the main drinking water sources of the community. In the Ashulia area. But most of the household owners installed own tube-well and provided connection to the tenants’. After industrialization of the area, local people constructed one room house for the migrant labor (at least built 10 rooms in each house). In summer, most of these water pumps can not provide sufficient water due to underground water scarcity. Most of these tube wells are 150-200 meters in depth. So there is always water scarcity in summer season. 12 Loss of residential/commercial There will be few permanent loss of land due to the project especially structures, if any due to the construction of water pump. But there will be very few losses of trees project and temporary structure for wading road only one location. 13 Loss of community life like any There will be no loss of community life or market place as such except Market Places or community few scattered vendors and squatters who need to be sifted. activities to be affected 14 Poverty Level: Is the village poor Almost 80% people migrant labor and work in the different impurities. or very poor or well off Local people are mostly involved in land buying and selling business and the most common income earning sources is rental house /room for the migrant labor. Besides some shops, transport business has been increased due to highly increasing tendency of industrialization. 15 Education Status: Literate, Less then 50% of community people are educated but have no higher illiterate etc level of education(very few have), Majority children go to school but could not continue higher education instead after finishing primary or secondary education they go for job. Participants said outsiders are more educated then local community. 16 Employment Status: Percentage All of the migrant people of the community work in the industries. About of employment/ unemployment/ Three lac people are working in the area are migrant labor. Local underemployment people are mostly depending on the income of rental room. Majority of the local people now engaged in room rental business. Still there is very few which is about 10% of the people are still unemployed. 17 Migration Pattern (If any), inward Yes, the area has high tendency of in migration. Most of the people of or outward the locality have been migrated form the whole country. Community people very less in terms of its quantity. 18 Are you satisfied with the Most of the people are satisfied service provided by Pauroshava. The present infrastructure facility in original roads were constructed by CARE and roads are very wide the town and locality compare to any region. This has also given scope for investment .They also suggested for more services such as adequate street light, public toilet for male female both and solid waste management in a planed way. 19 Do you face any problem Yes, lack of drainage system is a serious problem. In the rainy season regarding the exiting water many of the roads go down under water. And another problem is water supply/solid waste scarcity during the dry season. Some participant said if the roads and management/river drainage the drain problems get solve the land pries will be high and

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. The City Region Development Project (CRDP, the Project) will be financed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and is being formulated as a project loan using the sector approach to be implemented over a six-year period (January 2011 to December 2016). This document is a draft Resettlement Plan prepared for the Banani integrated traffic management subproject. It is based on a feasibility level study and preliminary engineering design and will be updated at the final detailed engineering stage. The Resettlement Plan is prepared in accordance with the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009 (SPS), Government of Bangladesh’s (the Government) policy, i.e., the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Ordinance, 1982 (ARIPO), and the Resettlement Framework adopted for CRDP. It is classified as Category B according to ADB’s SPS as minimal land acquisition and resettlement is required for this subproject.

2. The Banani subproject envisages integrated traffic management to achieve a major upgrade of the public realm and achieve an improved quality of life for residents and businesses.

3. Summary of Resettlement Impacts. There is no land acquisition required for this subproject. The subproject will impact 225 mobile street hawkers and shop vendors who operate kiosks informally within the right of way (ROW). No residential displacement is envisioned. The hawker structures are considered temporary and therefore these businesses will experience temporary economic displacement. The impacts are further detailed and mitigation measures and entitlements are provided in the Resettlement Plan.

5. Implementation Arrangements. The subproject will be managed and implemented through a Project Implementation Unit (PIU) based in Dhaka City Corporation Banani office with the overall support and guidance of the Project Management Coordination Unit (PMCU) based at the Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) Headquarters in Dhaka. The detailed design, preparation and implementation of the capital investments will be supported by: (i) consultancy support (both international and national); and (ii) technical support from LGED. The PIU will implement the Resettlement Plan with support from the PMCU and consultants. The PIU will provide adequate and appropriate replacement structures or cash compensation at full replacement cost, adequate compensation for partially damaged structures, and relocation assistance, as per the entitlement matrix within this Resettlement Plan. Income restoration assistance to the affected persons includes both short and medium term strategies. The Government will provide all funds for resettlement in a timely manner.

6. Resettlement Plan Implementation and Monitoring. All compensation is to be paid prior to displacement however, ongoing income rehabilitation activities will continue after construction begins. Written confirmation of full compensation to displaced persons must be made to ADB prior to commencement of civil works in sections ready for construction. The estimated total period of the implementation of the Resettlement Plan is 13 months. Monthly monitoring reports will be submitted by PIU to PMCU. PMCU will consolidate monthly reports into semi-annual monitoring reports or as part of the regular project reporting and will submit to ADB.

I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A. Overview

1. The City Region Development Project (CRDP, the Project) emphasizes economic growth in Dhaka and Khulna city regions of Bangladesh through (i) creation of an enabling environment towards improved governance and capacity building of the local governments; and (ii) prioritized investments in infrastructure sectors in the two regions. The objectives of CRDP are (i) to improve the regional economic and social context through long-term development plans and investment programs, set within an institutional and regulatory context that will ensure implementation and review; (ii) to improve the capacity and mandate of local government to govern and to invest in improved economic activity at local level; (iii) to improve the economic context for sustainable commercial and industrial growth; and (iv) to improve the economic and social needs of the urban population, as an inclusive aspect of the CRDP. The subprojects are largely built around ‘integrated area planning’ principles which enhance economic activity in the regional context and provide opportunities for investment. The Banani subproject envisages integrated traffic management to achieve a major upgrade of the public realm and achieve an improved quality of life for residents and businesses.

2. This is a Resettlement Plan prepared for the Banani Integrated Traffic Management component (the subproject) which is in accordance with the ADB’s SPS, the Government’s policy, namely the ARIPO, and the Resettlement Framework1 adopted for the CRDP.

B. Subproject Components

3. Banani is a primarily residential area with mixed commercial activity located in north Dhaka, within Gulshan Thana area. The Subproject area covers 32 ha and contains 8.76 km of roads (including the bordering roads of Kamal Ataturk Avenue and Road 11). Several north- south roads serve as local distributors, even though the available carriageway widths are quite inadequate for the task. All east-west roads (other than Kamal Ataturk Avenue and Road 11) are local access roads: some are very narrow and several lack metalled surfaces. The basic characteristics of the existing road network are outlined in Appendix 1.

4. Preliminary Traffic Management Plan. The preliminary proposed District Traffic Management scheme for central Banani is specified in Tables 1 and 2. It may be noted that all but two of the major and minor roads are proposed into one-way streets. All but three of the local distributors are proposed one-way, with the exceptions being Roads 8, 10 and 11. However, Road 11 has a one-way eastbound section towards its western end to discourage through traffic, in combination with the prohibition of the right-turn northbound from New Airport Road. Vehicular access has been maintained in Road 11 for the benefit of frontage traders. It is proposed to wholly pedestrianize Road 17, which serves university premises and which is heavily thronged with pedestrians at most times. The internal one-way system has been proposed because it will make the roads safer for vehicles and pedestrians and it will also lengthen journey times within the subproject area, thereby discouraging drivers seeking short- cuts. Careful attention has been given to road and footway widths. Bearing such considerations in mind, the width requirements shown in Table 1 were developed for guidance purposes.

1 As per ADB’s Safeguards Requirement-4 (SR-4) of the SPS-2009, the sector approach requires preparation of Resettlement Framework to guide subproject selection, screening and categorization, social and resettlement assessment, and preparation and implementation of Resettlement Plans of subprojects and to facilitate compliance with the requirements specified in Safeguard Requirements 1–3. The Resettlement Framework is prepared in accordance with the Government and ADB policy related to land acquisition and resettlement. 2

Table 1: Proposed Road and Footway Plan Road Classification Width Remarks Local distributor (two-way) 8.5 m May be reduced to 7.0 m if wide vehicles or rickshaws are prohibited. Local distributor (one-way) 4.5 m May be reduced to 4.0 m where frontage constraints apply. Major access road (two-way) 7.0 m Scope for reduction not recommended. Major access road (one-way) 4.0 m May be reduced to 3.5 m in extreme situations. Possible scope for reduction to 6.0 m in Minor access road (two-way) 7.0 m constrained situations. Minor access road (one-way) 3.5 m May be reduced to 3.0 m in extreme situations. Sidewalk (commercial and 3.0 m May be expanded to 4.0 m or more where other high-activity streets) each side activity levels are high or where frontage positions allow. May be reduced to 1.5 m where necessary, or a 2.0 m Sidewalk (other streets) single 3.0 m sidewalk may be provided on one each side side of the road only. Car parking bay (parallel to May be reduced to 2.5 m in constrained 3.0 m the carriageway) situations. Depending on space available, may be considered on north-south local distributor or Rickshaw ‘station’ 3.0 m major access roads at junction approaches with KAA and Road 11.

5. Table 2 presents traffic management proposals for Banani. Most local access roads in the subproject area would be narrower than they are now. A narrower, safer road with proper sidewalks, planned on-street parking would greatly improve the character and operations in the subproject area. Redundant space could be properly landscaped, rather than becoming a dump for refuse and construction materials. It will be important to enlist the cooperation of residents and business tenants to ensure that standards are maintained.

II. SCOPE OF LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT

6. There is no land acquisition required for this subproject and specific design measures are adopted to minimize involuntary resettlement by keeping within the ROW. Impacts are limited to temporary economic displacement and relocation of 225 mobile hawkers and vendors in the subproject area who operate within the ROW. No residential displacement is envisioned. The impacts are further detailed below and mitigation measures and entitlements are provided in the following sections.

III. SOCIOECONOMIC INFORMATION AND PROFILE

A. Census Survey

7. Structured census survey questionnaires (Appendix 2) were used to collect detailed information on the impact of temporary impacts hawkers and vendors in the subproject area who are considered economically displaced.2 The survey was conducted in June 2010.3

2 As the Resettlement Plan will be updated at the detailed design stage, and the hawkers defined at the time of the census survey (the cut off date for receiving entitlements) the actual number of hawkers may be subject to change and will be reconfirmed.

8. Street Hawkers and Vendors. The subproject will impact 225 mobile hawkers and street vendors who operate within the ROW. The hawker structures are considered temporary and therefore they will experience temporary economic displacement. The socioeconomic findings of the census are described below.

9. The socioeconomic profile of the displaced persons is homogenous nature. These households are mostly engaged in small-scale business activities such as small shops, vegetable stands, and eateries. None of the households belong to Indigenous People or ethnic minority group as most of the displaced persons are Muslims. The major source of income of these vendors and hawkers households are the small business activities.

10. Average Monthly Income of the Displaced Persons. The average income of the displaced households vary. A majority of the hawkers (125) earn an average monthly income in the range of Tk5,000 to Tk10,000. Around 64 hawkers reported their income level per month is less than Tk5,000. These persons are considered to be vulnerable and considered as poor and are entitled to additional entitlement measures under the project. The total average income of the affected hawkers is Tk8,262. Details are given in Table 3.

12. To understand the relocation options, only 11 (4.89%) hawkers opted for self relocation or voluntary relocation. The choice of hawkers is further supported by their compensation option where 41.33% opted for cash compensation against loss of their structure. Details of relocation and compensation option are given in Table 5.

16. Gender. During disbursement of assistance and compensation, priority will be given to female headed households. Joint ownership in the name of husband and wife will be offered in case of non-female headed households where the asset was acquired during their marriage.

IV. INFORMATION DISCLOSURE, CONSULTATION, AND PARTICIPATION

A. Public Consultation

17. During subproject preparation, consultations were held with the official representatives of Banani and Dkaha City Corporation, apart from the communities in the subproject area. The issues covered during these consultations included selection of subprojects and identification of key issues including addressing the current gaps in provision of basic services and improvement of urban environment conditions in the Banani area. These consultations (Table 9) provide an understanding of the needs and concerns of the project communities and the relevant stakeholders. Additionally, focus group discussions were also conducted with the local community especially with the displaced persons and the summary of these consultations is given in Appendix 3.

B. Information Disclosure

18. Project information will be continually disseminated through disclosure of resettlement planning documents. Resettlement information leaflets containing information on compensation, entitlement and resettlement management adopted for the subproject will be made available in local language (Bangla) and the same will be distributed to displaced persons. The PIU the Resettlement Support staff (RSS) will keep the displaced persons 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 especially, the market place which will be easily accessible to the displaced persons. The summary of the Resettlement Plan and the entitlement matrix will be translated into the local language; disclosed to the displaced persons; and made available at PIU, local offices and libraries (or other pubic places, and at the LGED offices. A copy of the Resettlement Plan will be disclosed on the LGED and ADB website.

C. Continued Consultation and Participation

19. For continued consultations, the following steps are to be taken:

(i) The PMCU and the PIU will organize public meetings and will apprise the communities about the progress in the implementation of resettlement, social and environmental activities. (ii) There will be a Grievance Redress Committees (GRC). The displaced persons will be associated with such committee along with their representatives. (iii) PMCU and PIU will organize 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 placed for public display at the PCMU and PIU offices. (iv) All monitoring and evaluation reports of the resettlement components of the project will be disclosed in the same manner as that of the Resettlement Plan. (v) Key features of the entitlements will be displayed along the project corridor. (vi) The PMCU and PIU will conduct information dissemination sessions at major intersections and solicit the help of the local community leaders to encourage the participation of the displaced persons in Resettlement Plan implementation.

(vii) Attempts will be made to ensure that vulnerable groups understand the process and to take their specific needs into account.

20. The details on consultation process and disclosure at various phases of project development including the responsible agency are described in Appendix 5.

V. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISMS

21. A grievance redress mechanism (GRM) shall be set up in the Dhaka City Corporation PIU office in Banani to register grievances of the people regarding technical, social and environmental aspects. The process will designed to be transparent, gender responsive, culturally appropriate and commensurate to the risks and adverse impacts of the project, as well as readily accessible to all segments of the affected people. The project GRM will not supersede any legal government grievance procedures. Affected people are to be informed about the mechanism through media and public outlets. This participatory process shall ensure that all views of the people are adequately reviewed and suitably incorporated in the design and implementation process. The GRM will be implemented in three levels.

22. The first level and most accessible and immediate venue for the fastest resolve of grievances is the PIU, chiefly through the resettlement safeguards officer and Project Manager, with assistance from the Resettlement Specialist(s) of the Management, Design and Supervision Consultant (MDSC). The contact phone number will be posted in the project areas. Grievances will be resolved through continuous interactions with affected persons and the PIU will answer queries and resolve grievances regarding various issues including Environmental Management Plan implementation, land acquisition, structures acquisition, livelihood impacts, entitlements, and assistance. Corrective measures will be undertaken at the field-level itself within seven days. All grievances will be documented with full information of the person and issue.

23. Should the grievance remain unresolved, the PIU's Project Manager, will activate the second level of the GRM by referring the issue (with written documentation) to the local GRC of the City Corporation, who will, based on review of the grievances, address them in consultation with the Safeguards Officer of the PIU and PMCU, and affected persons. A hearing will be called, if necessary, where the affected person can present his/her concern/issues. The process will promote conflict resolution through mediation. The local GRC will consist of the following persons: (i) Chief Executive Officer of the City Corporation (GRC Chair); (ii) representative of the mayor of the City Corporation; (iii) representative of the affected persons; (iv) official of the land registry department; (v) official of the DOE divisional office; (vi) town planner of the City Corporation; and (vii) Environmental/Social safeguards Officer of the PIU. The local GRC shall meet twice a month, unless the Project Director of the PIU informs that there are no grievances to address, or they shall meet as needed as per the severity of the grievance. The local GRC will suggest corrective measures at the field level and assign responsibilities for implementing its decisions.

24. The functions of the local GRC are as follows: (i) provide support to affected persons on problems arising from land acquisition (temporary or permanent); asset acquisition; and eligibility for entitlements, compensation and assistance; (ii) record grievances of affected persons, categorize and prioritize them and provide solutions within a month; and (iii) report to the aggrieved parties about developments regarding their grievances and decisions of the GRC.

25. Should the grievance still remain unresolved, the PIU Project Manager, will activate the third level of the GRM by informing the PMCU Project Director who will, based on review of the 9 local GRC minutes and consultation with the PIU Project Manager, activate the PMCU level GRC. This committee shall comprise the following representatives: (i) Project Director PMCU, (ii) Environmental/Resettlement Safeguards Officer of the PMCU; (iii) representative from Land Ministry, (iv) representative from DOE; (v) representative of the affected persons; and (vi) Environmental/Social Safeguards officer of the PIU.

26. The GRC at the PMCU level shall meet based on the receipt of grievances, and the meeting shall be convened within 7 days of receipt of the grievance by the PMCU, and grievances redressed with 15 days. The Environmental / Resettlement Safeguards Officer of the PMCU will be responsible for processing and placing all papers before the PMCU GRC, recording decisions, issuing minutes of the meetings and taking follow up action to see that formal orders are issued and the decisions carried out.

27. In the event that a grievance is not addressed by the PIU, local GRC, or the PMCU GRC, the AP can seek legal redress of the grievance in the appropriate courts (fourth level of GRM). Figure 1 illustrates the GRM.

VI. LEGAL FRAMEWORK

28. This Resettlement Plan is prepared based on all applicable legal and policy frameworks of the Government (i.e., ARIPO) and ADB's SPS. A summary of applicable acts and policies is presented provided in the Project's Resettlement Framework.

29. The Government's policy through ARIPO does not cover project-affected persons without titles or ownership record, such as informal settler/squatters, occupiers, and informal tenants and lease-holders (without document) and does not ensure replacement value of the property acquired. The ARIPO has no provision of resettlement assistance for restoration of livelihoods of affected persons except for the legal compensation. Gaps between national law and ADB policy are identified and bridging measures are included in the entitlement matrix for the project, described below. ADB will not finance the project if it does not comply with its SPS nor will it finance the project if it does not comply with its host country's social and environmental laws. Where discrepancy between the ADB and Government policies exist, the ADB policy will prevail. Moreover, the SPS applies to all ADB-financed and/or ADB-administered sovereign projects, and their components regardless of the source of financing, including investment projects funded by a loan; and/or a grant; and/or other means.

VII. ENTITLEMENTS, ASSISTANCE, AND BENEFITS

A. Eligibility

30. All displaced persons who are identified in the project-impacted areas on the cut-off date4 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 licensed and non-licensed vendors. Compensation eligibility is limited by a cut-off date as set for this project on the day of the beginning of the detailed census during the detailed design. Displaced persons 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 (60 days), requested to vacate premises and dismantle affected structures prior to project implementation.

B. Entitlements

31. The entitlement matrix in Table 10 summarizes the main types of losses and the corresponding entitlements in accordance with the Government and ADB policies.

4The cut-off date for title holders is based according to the formal notification, and for non-titleholders the date of the census survey during the detailed design. Those who encroach into the subproject area after the cut-off date will not be entitled to compensation or any other assistance. The PIU will take video and photo documentation to ensure entitled persons on the cut-off date.

C. Assessment of Compensation Unit Values

32. Private Building and Structure. The compensation for structures will be determined on the basis of replacement cost as on date without depreciation. The PIU with assistance from the Public Works Department (PWD) will determine the replacement cost of structures. PIU will engage experts form PWD and the experts will carry out on the field assessment of each property and will submit the report to the Deputy Commissioner office. PIU will ensure that the assessment is done keeping in consideration the market price and consultation with the owners by assessing sources, types and cost of materials, usage of the building and the cost related to labor and transportation etc.

33. Business or Sources of Income. The PIU will conduct a detailed census survey which is to include actual monthly income of the displaced persons followed by a verification of the income data based on the tax payment (for titled business owners). In the absence of the authentic income proof, the unit price will be collected from the displaced person during the survey. See income restoration and rehabilitation measures below.

34. Temporary Source of Income. The compensation for temporary impacts will be decided based on the average daily income which will be derived from the census survey. The unit cost for temporary loss of income for mobile vendors has been derived based on the minimum wage for the entire period of disruption. The disruption period has been considered as 15 days and the minimum wage has been considered to be Tk200 per day. Therefore, the unit cost for temporary loss has been calculated to be Tk3,000 per household. See income restoration and rehabilitation measures below.

VIII. INCOME RESTORATION AND REHABILITATION

A. Basic Provision for Relocation

35. The PIU will attempt to find suitable alternative locations for hawkers including creating potential formal market spaces where feasible. The PIU will provide adequate and appropriate replacement structures or cash compensation at full replacement cost, adequate compensation for partially damaged structures, and relocation assistance, as per applicable according to the entitlement matrix. The entitlements to the non-titleholders will be given only if they occupied the land or structures in the project area prior to the cut-off date. To help hawkers losing structures in getting entitlements and relocating themselves, a relocation strategy will be adopted in the subproject including (i) all compensation will be paid and other resettlement entitlements will be before physical displacement; (ii) at least 60 days advance notice will be given; (iii) the PIU and Resettlement Support Staff will assist displaced persons during verification of assets and will provide necessary counseling on payment of compensation and assistance; (iv) in close consultation with the displaced persons, the PIU Resettlement Support Staff will fix the shifting dates agreed with the displaced persons in writing and the arrangements desired by the displaced persons with respect to their entitlements; and (v) in case of self relocation, the PIU will assist the displaced persons in finding alternative site within the area if so desired by the displaced persons.

B. Income and Livelihood Rehabilitation

36. Income restoration assistance to the displaced persons includes both short and medium term strategies. Short term income restoration strategies are for immediate assistance during relocation and include the following: (i) Compensation for structure paid in full before displacement occurs; 13

(ii) Assistance in finding alternate location for continuation of livelihood/living arrangements; (iii) Where provision of alternative sites is not feasible (for temporary impacts), compensation of lost income for period of disruption (if less than three months) or lump sum for three months lost income (at replacement cost) or minimum wage rates (whichever is higher); (iv) Shifting allowance for reestablishing business elsewhere based on actual cost of moving/unloading; (v) 60 days’ advance notice to shift business; (vi) One time assistance for lost income based on three months lost income (at replacement cost) or minimum wage rates (whichever is higher); (vii) Consideration for project employment; (viii) For vulnerable households, additional subsistence allowance equivalent to Tk10,000/household for restoring or enhancing their livelihood. Vulnerable households will be prioritized in any project employment; (ix) Provision of temporary access where possible to continue business; and (x) Restoration of affected land, structure, utilities, common property resource for continuation of business after construction is completed.

37. Medium-term income restoration activities will include skill development training based on need. The PIU will identify suitable local training institutes and pay fees directly to the training institution and provide the names of entitled person(s).

38. Where necessary, training may include (i) capacity building, enterprise training, and facilitating economic activities to landowners; and (ii) training for self employment to agricultural laborers. Training for self-employment and skill development which may include but not limited to (i) plumbing; (ii) electrical; (iii) automobile repair; and (iv) electronic repair and service, etc. Training will be imparted to any willing displaced person losing income or livelihood.

39. During the construction stage the displaced persons, especially vulnerable displaced persons, will be given preference over others in being engaged in project activities suitable to their skills. In order to make the displaced persons employable, the PIU will identify the required skills for the construction activities prior to the commencement of the construction and provide the required training to the displaced persons.

IX. RESETTLEMENT BUDGET AND FINANCING PLAN

40. The resettlement cost estimate for the Banani subproject (Table 11) includes eligible compensation, resettlement assistance, as outlined in the entitlement matrix, and support cost for Resettlement Plan implementation. The Government of Bangladesh will release funds to the PMCU and the PMCU will release funds to the PIU in a timely manner. The PIU in Dhaka City Corporation (DCC) will then release funds for resettlement to the entitled displaced persons. The total resettlement cost for the subproject is estimated at Tk20.85 million. The cost items of this Resettlement Plan are outlined below:

(i) Compensation for structures (Hawkers/Vendors) and other immovable assets at their replacement cost; (ii) Assistance in lieu of the loss of income and livelihood; (iii) Assistance for shifting of the structures; (iv) Training allowance; and (v) Special assistance to vulnerable groups for their livelihood restoration.

X. INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS

A. Project Management Coordination Unit

41. The LGED will be the executing agency responsible for overall guidance and project implementation. A PMCU headed by a Project Director will implement the project investments and will be responsible for overall planning, management, coordination, supervision and progress monitoring of the CRDP in the two regions. The PMCU will ensure compliance with assurances, including safeguards and preparing and submitting reports, resettlement plan monitoring updates. To ensure effective implementation of the land acquisition and resettlement aspects, two full time PMCU resettlement safeguard officers will be recruited, including one Resettlement Compliance Officer primarily responsible for compliance with legal requirements of the Government, and one Resettlement Surveyor responsible for overseeing PIU preparation of the Resettlement Plan for subprojects and data collection. The MDSC will recruit one international and one national resettlement specialist to assist the PMCU in this regard. The PMCU will review monthly reports submitted by PIUs and will consolidate them into quarterly reports to ADB. Corrective actions to be taken when necessary based on close monitoring and results of grievance redress process.

B. Project Implementation Unit

42. The subproject will be managed and implemented through the PIU based in the Dhaka City Corporation office in Banani. The PIU will be responsible for carrying out the detailed design of the subprojects and updating Resettlement Plans for the sample subprojects and prepare new Resettlement Plans for future subprojects under the sector approach The PIU will ensure compliance with safeguards requirements of the Government and ADB. The PIU will be 15 responsible for day-to-day monitoring of the project progress, including the implementation of the resettlement provisions in the project.

43. The capacity to implement safeguards planning and implementation at the PIU level is not currently adequate. Therefore, it is proposed that resettlement support staff (or facilitators) at the PIU level will be recruited. The number of resettlement support staff at each PIU will be commensurate to the scale of involuntary resettlement impacts (e.g., the greater the impact, the greater number of support staff needed). All PIU and PMCU safeguards staff will undergo training conducted by the consultant team’s resettlement specialists. Each PIU will prepare monitoring reports on all aspects concerning to resettlement planning and implementation of the land acquisition and resettlement issues and report to the PMCU on a monthly basis.

C. Management, Design and Supervision Consultants

44. The MDSC will hire one International Resettlement Specialist (IRS) and one National Resettlement Specialist (NRS). They will be responsible for updating/finalizing the Resettlement Plans of sample subprojects in accordance with this Resettlement Framework and based on the detailed engineering design. These specialists will also prepare new Resettlement Plans for future subprojects under the sector approach consistent with this Resettlement Framework. This will be done in close coordination with PIU resettlement support staff and PMCU resettlement officers. The IRS and the NRS will assist in the overall supervision of the projects and ensure all plans are implemented in a smooth and timely manner in accordance with the provisions of the Resettlement Plan. They will also prepare and implement training and capacity development programs for resettlement planning for the PIU and PMCU safeguards staff (see section below on Training and Capacity Building), and will closely work with the PMCU and PIUs to ensure displaced persons are compensated before displacement occurs, including ongoing rehabilitation measures. Further details on agencies responsible for Resettlement Plan activities are in Table 12 and the organization chart for Resettlement Plan implementation is depicted in Figure 2.

45. Land acquisition, compensation and relocation of displaced persons cannot commence until the Resettlement Plan has been cleared by ADB. All compensation is to be paid prior to displacement although income rehabilitation measures will continue after construction begins. Written confirmation is required by the PMCU to ADB stating that all compensation has been paid to displaced persons. Only then can construction works begin on sections where compensation has been paid. The project will be implemented over six years (January 2011 to December 2016). The implementation of the Resettlement Plan will include: (i) identification of cut-off date and notification; (ii) verification of losses and extent of impacts; (iii) finalization of entitlements and distribution of identity cards; (iv) consultations with displaced persons on their needs and priorities; and (v) resettlement, provision of compensation and assistance, and income restoration for displaced persons. The expected implementation schedule for a subproject is given in Table 13.

Endorsement and disclosure of finalized Resettlement Plans consistent with the Resettlement Framework to be undertaken.

XII. MONITORING AND REPORTING

46. The extent of monitoring activities will be commensurate with the project’s risks and impacts. Monthly monitoring reports to be submitted by PIU to PMCU. PMCU to consolidate monthly reports into semi-annual monitoring reports to ADB. These reports should form a part of the project progress reports submitted by PMCU to ADB.

47. The objectives of monitoring are to (i) ensure that the standard of living of displaced persons are restored or improved; (ii) ascertain whether activities are progressing as per schedule and the timelines are being met; (iii) assess if compensation, rehabilitation measures are sufficient; (iv) identify problems or potential issues; and (v) identify methods to rapidly to mitigate problems. The above information will be collected by executing and implementing agency through its PMCU and respective PIU which is responsible for monitoring the day-to-day resettlement activities of the project through the following instruments:

48. Internal Monitoring. The internal monitoring by PMCU/PIU will include (i) administrative monitoring to ensure that implementation is on schedule and problems are dealt with on a timely basis; (ii) socio-economic monitoring during and after the relocation process to ensure that people are settled and recovering. This will utilize the baseline information established by the socio-economic survey of displaced persons undertaken during subproject preparation; and (iii) overall monitoring whether recovery has taken place successfully and on time. Monitoring will also include the following:

(v) Disbursement of compensation amounts and all assistance. (vi) Physical progress of the Resettlement Plan implementation which will include relocation of displaced persons and affected community properties.

49. The indicators for achievement of objectives during Resettlement Plan implementation are of two kinds such as (i) Process Indicators (Indicating project inputs, expenditure, staff deployment, etc.); and (ii) Output Indicators: Indicating results in terms of numbers of displaced persons compensated, area of temporarily occupied lands restored with topsoil (and other pre- project features), number of displaced persons provided with skills training, etc. Input and output indicators related to physical progress of the work will include items such as:

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. The City Region Development Project (CRDP, the Project) will be financed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and is being formulated as a project loan using the sector approach to be implemented over a six-year period (January 2011 to December 2016). This document is a draft Resettlement Plan prepared for the Gazipur Water Supply and Sanitation subproject. It is based on a feasibility level study and preliminary engineering design and will be updated at the final detailed engineering stage. The Resettlement Plan is prepared in accordance with the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009 (SPS), Government of Bangladesh’s (the Government) policy, i.e., the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Ordinance, 1982 (ARIPO), and the Resettlement Framework adopted for the Project. It is classified as Category B according to ADB’s SPS as minimal land acquisition and resettlement is required.

2. Summary of Resettlement Impacts. A total of 16 households will be affected consisting of five households (39 affected persons) losing a small piece of land for four proposed tube wells and one public toilet; and 11 street hawkers/mobile vendors who will experience temporary economic impacts. Four proposed tube wells will be constructed on private land amounting to a total of 425 sq.m. and one public toilet amounting to 144 sq.m. A total of 18 fruit bearing trees were identified on these lands. No buildings or structures will be affected and there are no encroachers and squatters present. The 50 km. of distribution extension pipelines will be within the public right of way (ROW) and will temporarily affect the identified street hawkers and mobile vendors who will experience temporary economic displacement. Each hawker operates a small shop within temporary bamboo or wooden structures/kiosks which can be easily shifted with minimal disturbance. There are a total of 13 vulnerable households as they earn income considered below the poverty line.

3. Public consultations. Consultations were carried out during Resettlement Plan preparation and will continue throughout the subproject cycle. A grievance redress mechanism (GRM) will be made available as explained in this Resettlement Plan.

4. Implementation Arrangements. The subproject will be managed and implemented through a Project Implementation Unit (PIU) based in Gazipur Pourashava with the overall support and guidance of the Project Management Coordination Unit (PMCU) based at the Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) Headquarters in Dhaka. The detailed design, preparation and implementation of the capital investments will be supported by (i) consultancy support (both international and national); and (ii) technical support from LGED and the Department of Public Health Engineering (DPHE). The PIU will implement the Resettlement Plan with support from the PMCU and consultants. The PIU will provide adequate and appropriate replacement structures or cash compensation at full replacement cost, adequate compensation for partially damaged structures, and relocation assistance, as per the entitlement matrix within this Resettlement Plan. Income restoration assistance to the affected persons includes both short and medium term strategies. The Government will provide all funds for land and resettlement in a timely manner.

5. Resettlement Plan Implementation and Monitoring. All compensation is to be paid prior to displacement (both physical and economic) however, ongoing income rehabilitation activities will continue after construction begins. Written confirmation of full compensation to displaced persons must be made to ADB prior to commencement of civil works in sections ready for construction. The estimated total period of the implementation of the Resettlement Plan is 13 months. Monthly monitoring reports will be submitted by PIU to PMCU. PMCU will ii consolidate monthly reports into semi-annual monitoring reports or as part of the regular project reporting and will submit to ADB.

I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A. Overview

1. The City Region Development Project (CRDP, the Project) emphasizes economic growth in Dhaka and Khulna city regions of Bangladesh through (i) creation of an enabling environment towards improved governance and capacity building of the local governments; and (ii) prioritized investments in infrastructure sectors in the two regions. The objectives of CRDP are (i) to improve the regional economic and social context through long-term development plans and investment programs, set within an institutional and regulatory context that will ensure implementation and review; (ii) to improve the capacity and mandate of local government to govern and to invest in improved economic activity at local level; (iii) to improve the economic context for sustainable commercial and industrial growth; and (iv) to improve the economic and social needs of the urban population, as an inclusive aspect of the CRDP. The subprojects are largely built around ‘integrated area planning’ principles which enhance economic activity in the regional context and provide opportunities for investment. This draft Resettlement Plan is based on a feasibility level study and preliminary engineering design and will be updated at the final detailed engineering stage.

2. The Gazipur water supply/sanitation subproject focuses on providing a sustainable framework in which water supply and sanitation (WSS) improvements may be delivered more effectively by incorporating and optimizing existing systems. At the same time, the subproject seeks to mitigate as far as practicable, the current depletion of groundwater resources by substantially reducing wastage in water delivery and use. A key aim of the subproject is for water to be produced and delivered more effectively and to improve energy efficiency and reduce power consumption.

3. The specific objectives of this subproject are to (i) rehabilitate the existing water supply sources, including the production tube wells and the distribution system in the core area of Gazipur; (ii) expand the sources of water supply within the core and fringe areas, including the construction of new production wells; (iii) improve the institutional structure of the Pourashava to more effectively deliver water and sanitation services; (iv) improve overall health and sanitary conditions; and (v) improve the financial standing of WSS services through the introduction of modern accounting, billing and revenue collection to full cost recovery.

B. Subproject Components

4. The details of each subcomponent under the subproject is described in the sections below.

1. Water Supply

5. Rehabilitation of existing production tube wells. The subproject includes rehabilitation of eight existing tube wells. Rehabilitation will include the following works: (i) collection of bore hole data and design; (ii) inspection by closed-circuit television (CCTV); (iii) unclogging tubewell silt deposits; (iv) removal of silt and debris; (v) borehole disinfection; and (vi) conducting step-drawdown test. Actual requirements will be based on the findings of the hydrogeological study. The locations of the tube wells are in Table 1.

6. Refurbishment of existing water supply network. The existing water supply network in Gazipur Pourashava consists of 28 km of mainly PVC pipelines of 100 to 200 mm diameter. Activities under this component include (i) removing and replacing broken or leaking pipes; (ii) installing washout valves; (iii) flushing pipes for silt removal; and (iv) replacing illegal connections with new metered service. The work will be carried out to the existing distribution systems.

7. Interconnections of existing networks. A system of interconnection will be designed as part of the network analysis carried out in Phase 1 of this subproject. It is envisaged that significant operational efficiencies may be realized by the interlinking of the networks especially in regard to proposed network extensions and the provision a continuous 24 hrs supply.

8. Expansion of distribution network. It is aimed to increase the piped supply coverage from 34–65% of the Gazipur population. New supply areas will be determined during detailed design taking into account the findings of population surveys. Installation of water meters at consumer premises and production wells are also proposed. Allowance has been made for the installation of 1,000 new meters with valved service connections. Current estimates for new pipeline lengths are given in Table 2.

10. Water supply to informal housing areas. The subproject will provide new production wells, hand pumps and drainage facilities in areas where gaps in provision have been identified under feasibility studies during the detailed design stage, including informal housing areas and in rural development clusters.

2. Sanitation Facilities

11. Public Toilets. Public toilets are very limited in the core area and this component includes for the construction of 10 new public toilets and wash facilities. Facilities are to be provided with piped water supply and drainage system with suitably designed soakways. The details on the names and locations of the proposed public toilets are described in Table 4.

12. Pit Latrines. The subproject also aims to construct 2,000 new pit latrines in the core and fringe areas, matching the priority needs identified during the course of discussions between the consultant team and representatives of the pourashava. 13. Sludge Management. Towards improved operation and maintenance (O&M) of the existing septic tanks within Gazipur, the subproject will provide new septage collection equipment and vehicles. Sludge drying beds are proposed to be developed at the existing solid waste dumping ground at Gazipur.

II. SCOPE OF LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT

14. A total of 16 households will be affected consisting of five households losing a small piece of land for four proposed tube wells and one public toilet; and 11 street hawkers/mobile

4 vendors who will experience temporary economic impacts. Four proposed tube wells will be constructed on private land amounting to a total of 425 sq.m. and one public toilet amounting to 144 sq.m. A total of 18 fruit bearing trees were identified on these lands. No buildings or structures will be affected and there are no encroachers and squatters present. The 50 km of distribution extension pipelines will be within the public ROW and will temporarily affect 11 identified street hawkers and mobile vendors who will experience temporary economic displacement. Each hawker operates a small shop within a temporary bamboo or wooden structures/kiosks which can be easily shifted with minimal disturbance. A summary of land acquisition and resettlement impacts are described in Tables 5 and 6.

The average family size in the subproject area is 5.3 and the $1= Tk72. Therefore, the threshold for poverty line has been considered as Tk11,475 income per month per household. 5 6

III. SOCIOECONOMIC INFORMATION AND PROFILE

15. Structured census survey questionnaires (Appendixes 1 and 2) were used to collect detailed information on the five affected households losing land. The survey was conducted in June 2010.1 A summary of socioeconomic data of affected persons is included below.

16. Land Owners. There are a total of five separate landowners losing small pieces of land as a result of the subproject. The total number of affected persons is 39. Total monthly income ranges between Tk10,000-20,000. Two of these households are considered vulnerable as they earn income below the poverty line. The land owners are mostly occupied in agriculture, service and doing small business.

17. Street Hawkers and Mobile Vendors. The subproject will impact 11 identified street hawkers and mobile vendors who are operating within or encroaching onto the ROW. Each operate within temporary structures. The uses of these structures are mostly for roadside small business activities. Out of the 11 affected street hawkers and mobile vendors, 2 are partially affected (structures encroaching onto the ROW) while the remaining 9 will be fully impacted as they are located entirely within the ROW. The types of structures are classified based on the type of construction, their usability and the age of the structure. All the structures are temporary as they have no permanent foundation and are between 1 to 10 years old. Each consists of bamboo pillars, Tripol/Plastic or thatched structures with iron corrugated sheets. The total area for each structure is approximately 12 sq.m. Therefore, each can be easily shifted to other locations without much disturbance. The average market price for replacing the structures ranges between Tk9,000 to Tk10,000. Therefore each of street hawkers and mobile vendors are considered vulnerable households as they earn below the poverty line.

IV. INFORMATION DISCLOSURE, CONSULTATION, AND PARTICIPATION

A. Public Consultation

19. During subproject preparation, consultations were held with the official representatives of the Gazipur Pourashava, apart from the communities in the project area. The issues covered during these consultations included selection of subprojects and identification of key issues including addressing the current gaps in provision of basic services and improvement of urban environment conditions in the Gazipur urban area. These consultations (Table 8) provided an understanding of the needs and concerns of the project communities and the relevant stakeholders. Additionally, focus group discussions were also conducted with the local community especially with the DPs and the summary of these consultations is given in Appendix 3.

1 The survey team was trained by the international resettlement specialist consultant and the survey was closely monitored on a regular basis. The census survey included various aspects including (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) temporary impacts on the hawkers’ business activities. 7

ADB = Asian Development Bank, CEO = Chief Executive Officer.

B. Information Disclosure

20. Project information will be continually disseminated through disclosure of resettlement planning documents. Resettlement information leaflets containing information on compensation, entitlement and resettlement management adopted for the subproject will be made available in local language (Bangla) and the same will be distributed to displaced persons. The PIU Resettlement Support staff (RSS) will keep the displaced persons 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 especially, the market place which will be easily accessible to the displaced persons. The summary of the Resettlement Plan

8 and the entitlement matrix will be translated into the local language; disclosed to the displaced persons; and made available at PIU, local offices and libraries (or other pubic places), and at the LGED and DPHE offices. A copy of the Resettlement Plan will be disclosed on the LGED and ADB website.

C. Continued Consultation and Participation

21. For continued consultations, the following steps are to be taken:

(i) The PMCU and the PIU will organize public meetings and will apprise the communities about the progress in the implementation of resettlement, social and environmental activities; (ii) There will be a Grievance Redress Committees (GRC). The displaced persons will be associated with such committee along with their representatives; (iii) PMCU and PIU will organize 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 placed for public display at the PCMU and PIU offices; (iv) All monitoring and evaluation reports of the resettlement components of the project will be disclosed in the same manner as that of the Resettlement Plan; (v) Key features of the entitlements will be displayed along the project corridor; (vi) The PMCU and PIU will conduct information dissemination sessions at major intersections and solicit the help of the local community leaders to encourage the participation of the displaced persons in Resettlement Plan implementation; and (vii) Attempts will be made to ensure that vulnerable groups understand the process and to take their specific needs into account.

V. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISMS

22. A grievance redress mechanism (GRM) shall be set up in the Gazipur Pourashava PIU office to register grievances of the people regarding technical, social and environmental aspects. The process will designed to be transparent, gender responsive, culturally appropriate and commensurate to the risks and adverse impacts of the project, as well as readily accessible to all segments of the affected people. The project GRM will not supersede any legal government grievance procedures. Affected people are to be informed about the mechanism through media and public outlets. This participatory process shall ensure that all views of the people are adequately reviewed and suitably incorporated in the design and implementation process. The GRM will be implemented in three levels.

23. The first level and most accessible and immediate venue for the fastest resolve of grievances is the PIU, chiefly through the resettlement safeguards officer and Project Manager, with assistance from the Resettlement Specialist(s) of the Management Design Supervision Consultant (MDSC). The contact phone number will be posted in the project areas. Grievances will be resolved through continuous interactions with affected persons and the PIU will answer queries and resolve grievances regarding various issues including Environmental Management Plan implementation, land acquisition, structures acquisition, livelihood impacts, entitlements, and assistance. Corrective measures will be undertaken at the field-level itself within seven days. All grievances will be documented with full information of the person and issue.

24. Should the grievance remain unresolved, the PIU's Project Manager, will activate the second level of the GRM by referring the issue (with written documentation) to the local GRC of 9 the City Corporation, who will, based on review of the grievances, address them in consultation with the Safeguards Officer of the PIU and PMCU, and affected persons. A hearing will be called, if necessary, where the affected person can present his/her concern/issues. The process will promote conflict resolution through mediation. The local GRC will consist of the following persons: (i) Chief Executive Officer of the City Corporation (GRC Chair); (ii) representative of the mayor of the City Corporation; (iii) representative of the affected persons; (iv) official of the land registry department; (v) official of the Department of Environment (DOE) divisional office; (vi) town planner of the City Corporation; and (vii) Environmental/Social safeguards Officer of the PIU. The local GRC shall meet twice a month, unless the Project Director of the PIU informs that there are no grievances to address, or they shall meet as needed as per the severity of the grievance. The local GRC will suggest corrective measures at the field level and assign responsibilities for implementing its decisions.

25. The functions of the local GRC are as follows: (i) provide support to affected persons on problems arising from land acquisition (temporary or permanent); asset acquisition; and eligibility for entitlements, compensation and assistance; (ii) record grievances of affected persons, categorize and prioritize them and provide solutions within a month; and (iii) report to the aggrieved parties about developments regarding their grievances and decisions of the GRC.

26. Should the grievance still remain unresolved, the PIU Project Manager, will activate the third level of the GRM by informing the PMCU Project Director who will, based on review of the local GRC minutes and consultation with the PIU Project Manager, activate the PMCU level GRC. This committee shall comprise the following representatives:(i) Project Director PMCU; (ii) Environmental/Resettlement Safeguards Officer of the PMCU; (iii) representative from Land Ministry; (iv) representative from DOE; (v) representative of the affected persons; and (vi) Environmental/Social Safeguards officer of the PIU.

27. The GRC at the PMCU level shall meet based on the receipt of grievances, and the meeting shall be convened within 7 days of receipt of the grievance by the PMCU, and grievances redressed with 15 days. The Environmental / Resettlement Safeguards Officer of the PMCU will be responsible for processing and placing all papers before the PMCU GRC, recording decisions, issuing minutes of the meetings and taking follow up action to see that formal orders are issued and the decisions carried out.

28. In the event that a grievance is not addressed by the PIU, local GRC, or the PMCU GRC, the affected person can seek legal redress of the grievance in the appropriate Courts (fourth level of GRM). Figure 1 illustrates the GRM.

VI. LEGAL FRAMEWORK

29. This Resettlement Plan is prepared based on all applicable legal and policy frameworks of the Government (i.e., the ARIPO) and ADB's SPS. A summary of applicable acts and policies is presented provided in the Project's Resettlement Framework.

30. The Government's policy through ARIPO does not cover project-affected persons without titles or ownership record, such as informal settler/squatters, occupiers, and informal tenants and lease-holders (without document) and does not ensure replacement value of the property acquired. The ARIPO has no provision of resettlement assistance for restoration of livelihoods of affected persons except for the legal compensation. Gaps between national law and ADB policy are identified and bridging measures are included in the Entitlement Matrix for the project, described below. ADB will not finance the project if it does not comply with its SPS nor will it finance the project if it does not comply with its host country's social and environmental laws. Where discrepancy between the ADB and Government policies exist, the ADB policy will prevail. Moreover, the SPS applies to all ADB-financed and/or ADB-administered sovereign projects, and their components regardless of the source of financing, including investment projects funded by a loan; and/or a grant; and/or other means.

VII. ENTITLEMENTS, ASSISTANCE AND BENEFITS

A. Eligibility

31. All displaced persons who are identified in the project-impacted areas on the cut-off date2 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 licensed and non-licensed vendors. Compensation eligibility is limited by a cut-off date as set for this project on the day of the beginning of the detailed census during the detailed design. Displaced persons 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 (60 days), requested to vacate premises and dismantle affected structures prior to project implementation.

B. Entitlements

32. The entitlement matrix in Table 9 summarizes the main types of losses and the corresponding entitlements in accordance with the Government and ADB policies.

2 The cut-off date for title holders is based according to the formal notification, and for non-titleholders the date of the census survey during the detailed design. Those who encroach into the subproject area after the cut-off date will not be entitled to compensation or any other assistance. The PIU will take video and photo documentation to ensure entitled persons on the cut-off date.

3 The rate of compensation for acquired housing, land and other assets will be calculated at full replacement costs. The calculation of full replacement cost is described in Section B.V.c in this Resettlement Framework. Where market conditions are absent or in a formative stage, the borrower/client will consult with the displaced persons and host populations to obtain adequate information about recent land transactions, land value by types, land titles, land use, cropping patterns and crop production, availability of land in the project area and region, and other related information. The borrower/client will also collect baseline data on housing, house types, and construction materials. Qualified and experienced experts will undertake the valuation of acquired assets. In applying this method of valuation, depreciation of structures and assets is not to be taken into account. 4 Vulnerable households/displaced persons may include female-headed households, disable-headed households, indigenous persons/ethnic minority-headed households and Below Poverty Line households

C. Assessment of Compensation Unit Values

33. Land. The land valuation process will consist of two different values – (i) the sale deed record, and (ii) expected price. The PIU will be responsible for providing the recorded rate from the Local Land Registry Office (LLRO) (i.e., the sale deed record). The PIU will consult with willing buyers/sellers of the area to collect the expected price of land. The PIU will then submit the two rates to the valuation committee. Based on these rates the valuation committee will derive a price which will be called as the current market rate. Additionally, the cost for tax and stamp duties etc will be added to the current marker as derived by the valuation committee which will finally be considered as the replacement cost.

34. Private Building and Structure. The compensation for houses, buildings and other immovable properties will be determined on the basis of replacement cost as on date without depreciation. The PIU with assistance from the Public Works Department (PWD) will determine the replacement cost of structures. PIU will engage experts form PWD and the experts will carry out on the field assessment of each property and will submit the report to the Deputy Commissioner office. PIU will ensure that the assessment is done keeping in consideration the market price and consultation with the owners by assessing sources, types and cost of materials, usage of the building and the cost related to labor and transportation etc.

35. Trees and Crops. The PIU will conduct the survey on unit prices of trees and crops affected by temporary or permanent land acquisition, in consultation with agriculture/horticulture experts. The compensation for crops will be calculated based the current market rate. The PIU will collect data on crops in the project area from the local department of agricultural extension. Subsequently, the unit/market rate for each crop will be determined in consultation with the department of agricultural extension. The unit prices for compensation of different species of fruit trees will be based on the market values of their fruits. For trees producing timber their unit prices will be based on species type, age, and quality. The cost for such trees will be collected after consultation with the divisional forest office.

36. Business or Sources of Income. The PIU will conduct a detailed census survey which is to include actual monthly income of the displaced persons followed by a verification of the income data based on the tax payment (for titled business owners). In the absence of the authentic income proof, the unit price will be collected from the displaced person during the survey. The average income in the project area as collected during the census is approximately 6,000 and therefore, the unit cost for one time for each household losing the income is Tk18,000.

VIII. INCOME RESTORATION AND REHABILITATION

A. Basic Provision for Relocation

37. The basic provision for loss of land has been taken as the cash compensation at market price which is equivalent to replacement cost. Advanced notice (60 days) will be provided for harvesting crops, or if harvesting is not possible, then the farmers will be compensated at replacement cost for such crops. Trees will be compensated at market value. All compensation is to be paid before displacement occurs. The land owners losing a small piece of land will not require any relocation as they will not be physically displaced nor they will be severely affected. The PIU will attempt to find suitable alternative locations for hawkers including creating potential formal market spaces where feasible. The PIU will provide adequate and appropriate replacement structures or cash compensation at full replacement cost, adequate compensation 15 for partially damaged structures, and relocation assistance, as per applicable according to the entitlement matrix. The PIU will compensate non-title holders for the loss of assets other than land, such as dwellings, and also for other improvements to the land, at full replacement cost. The entitlements to the non-titleholders will be given only if they occupied the land or structures in the project area prior to the cut-off date. The preliminary number of displaced hawkers is quite minimal (only 11) in the subproject area and the consultation with these hawkers and vendors revealed that they will be willing to shift on their own provided they get some compensation. To help the hawkers losing structures in getting entitlements and relocating themselves, a relocation strategy will be adopted in the subproject including (i) all compensation will be paid and other resettlement entitlements will be before physical displacement; (ii) at least 60 days advance notice will be given; (iii) the PIU and Resettlement Support Staff will assist displaced persons during verification of assets and will provide necessary counseling on payment of compensation and assistance; (iv) in close consultation with the displaced persons, the PIU Resettlement Support Staff will fix the shifting dates agreed with the displaced persons in writing and the arrangements desired by the displaced persons with respect to their entitlements; and (v) in case of self relocation, the PIU will assist the displaced persons in finding alternative site within the area if so desired by the displaced persons.

B. Income and Livelihood Rehabilitation

38. Income restoration assistance to the displaced persons includes both short and medium term strategies. Short term income restoration strategies are for immediate assistance during relocation and include the following:

(i) Compensation for land, structures, crops, fruit bearing trees, and all other lost assets is paid in full before displacement occurs; (ii) Assistance in finding replacement land or alternate location for continuation of livelihood/living arrangements; (iii) Where provision of alternative sites is not feasible (for temporary impacts), compensation of lost income for period of disruption (if less than three months) or lump sum for three months lost income (at replacement cost) or minimum wage rates (whichever is higher); (iv) Shifting allowance for reestablishing business elsewhere based on actual cost of moving/unloading; (v) 60 days’ advance notice to shift business or harvest standing seasonal crops (if harvest is not possible, compensation for share of standing crops at market rates); (vi) One time assistance for lost income based on three months lost income (at replacement cost) or minimum wage rates (whichever is higher); (vii) Consideration for project employment; (viii) For vulnerable households, additional subsistence allowance equivalent to Tk10,000/household for restoring or enhancing their livelihood. Vulnerable households will be prioritized in any project employment; (ix) Provision of temporary access where possible to continue business; and (x) Restoration of affected land, structure, utilities, common property resource for continuation of business after construction is completed.

39. Medium-term income restoration activities will include skill development training based on need. The PIU will identify suitable local training institutes and pay fees directly to the training institution and provide the names of entitled person(s).

40. Where necessary, training may include (i) capacity building, enterprise training, and facilitating economic activities to landowners; and (ii) training for self employment to agricultural laborers. Training for self-employment and skill development which may include but not limited to (i) plumbing; (ii) electrical; (iii) automobile repair; and (iv) electronic repair and service, etc. Training will be imparted to any willing displaced person losing income or livelihood.

41. During the construction stage the displaced persons, especially vulnerable displaced persons, will be given preference over others in being engaged in project activities suitable to their skills. In order to make the displaced persons employable, the PIU will identify the required skills for the construction activities prior to the commencement of the construction and provide the required training to the displaced persons.

IX. RESETTLEMENT BUDGET AND FINANCING PLAN

42. The resettlement cost estimate for the Gazipur subproject (Table 10) includes eligible compensation, resettlement assistance, as outlined in the entitlement matrix, and support cost for Resettlement Plan implementation. The Government will be responsible for releasing the funds for resettlement in a timely manner. The total resettlement cost for the subproject is Tk17.15 million. The cost items are outlined below:

(i) Compensation for land; (ii) Compensation for trees (fruit bearing and timber trees); (iii) Compensation for structures (hawkers/vendors) and other immovable assets at their replacement cost; (iv) Assistance for stamp duty etc for legal titleholders for land acquisition; (v) Assistance in lieu of the loss of income and livelihood; (vi) Assistance for shifting of the structures; (vii) Training allowance; and (viii) Special assistance to vulnerable groups for their livelihood restoration.

A. Project Management Coordination Unit

43. The LGED will be the executing agency responsible for overall guidance and project implementation. A PMCU headed by a Project Director will implement the project investments and will be responsible for overall planning, management, coordination, supervision and progress monitoring of the CRDP in the two regions. The PMCU will ensure compliance with assurances, including safeguards and preparing and submitting reports, resettlement plan monitoring updates. To ensure effective implementation of the land acquisition and resettlement aspects, two full time PMCU resettlement safeguard officers will be recruited, including one Resettlement Compliance Officer primarily responsible for compliance with legal requirements of the Government, and one Resettlement Surveyor responsible for overseeing PIU preparation of the Resettlement Plan for subprojects and data collection. The MDSC will recruit one international and one national resettlement specialist to assist the PMCU in this regard. The PMCU will review monthly reports submitted by PIUs and will consolidate them into quarterly reports to ADB. Corrective actions to be taken when necessary based on close monitoring and results of grievance redress process.

B. Project Implementation Unit

44. The subproject will be managed and implemented through the PIU based in Gazipur Pourashava. The PIU will be responsible for carrying out the detailed design of the subprojects and updating Resettlement Plans for the sample subprojects and prepare new Resettlement Plans for future subprojects under the sector approach The PIU will ensure compliance with safeguards requirements of the Government and ADB. The PIU will be responsible for day-to- day monitoring of the project progress, including the implementation of the resettlement provisions in the project.

45. The capacity to implement safeguards planning and implementation at the PIU level is not currently adequate. Therefore, it is proposed that resettlement support staff (or facilitators) at the PIU level will be recruited. The number of resettlement support staff at each PIU will be commensurate to the scale of involuntary resettlement impacts (e.g., the greater the impact, the greater number of support staff needed). All PIU and PMCU safeguards staff will undergo training conducted by the consultant team’s resettlement specialists. Each PIU will prepare monitoring reports on all aspects concerning to resettlement planning and implementation of the land acquisition and resettlement issues and report to the PMCU on a monthly basis.

C. Management, Design and Supervision Consultants

46. The MDSC will hire one International Resettlement Specialist (IRS) and one National Resettlement Specialist (NRS). They will be responsible for updating/finalizing the Resettlement Plans of sample subprojects in accordance with this Resettlement Framework and based on the

18 detailed engineering design. These specialists will also prepare new Resettlement Plans for future subprojects under the sector approach consistent with this Resettlement Framework. This will be done in close coordination with PIU resettlement support staff and PMCU resettlement officers. The IRS and the NRS will assist in the overall supervision of the projects and ensure all plans are implemented in a smooth and timely manner in accordance with the provisions of the Resettlement Plan. They will also prepare and implement training and capacity development programs for resettlement planning for the PIU and PMCU safeguards staff (see section below on Training and Capacity Building), and will closely work with the PMCU and PIUs to ensure displaced persons are compensated before displacement occurs, including ongoing rehabilitation measures. The Terms of Reference (TORs) along with the specific tasks are attached in Appendix 5. Further details on agencies responsible for RP activities are in Table 11 and the organization chart for Resettlement Plan implementation is depicted in Figure 2.

X. IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE

47. Land acquisition, compensation and relocation of displaced persons cannot commence until the Resettlement Plan has been cleared by ADB. All entitlements are to be paid prior to displacement. Written confirmation is required by the PMCU to ADB stating that all compensation has been paid to displaced persons. Only then can construction works begin on sections where compensation has been paid. The project will be implemented over six years (January 2011 to December 2016). The implementation of the Resettlement Plan will include: (i) identification of cut-off date and notification; (ii) verification of losses and extent of impacts; (iii) finalization of entitlements and distribution of identity cards; (iv) consultations with displaced persons on their needs and priorities; and (v) resettlement, provision of compensation and assistance, and income restoration for displaced persons.

XI. MONITORING AND REPORTING

48. The extent of monitoring activities will be commensurate with the project’s risks and impacts. Monthly monitoring reports to be submitted by PIU to PMCU. PMCU to consolidate monthly reports into quarterly monitoring reports to ADB. These reports should form a part of the project progress reports submitted by PMCU to ADB.

49. The objectives of monitoring are to (i) ensure that the standard of living of displaced persons are restored or improved; (ii) ascertain whether activities are progressing as per schedule and the timelines are being met; (iii) assess if compensation, rehabilitation measures are sufficient; (iv) identify problems or potential issues; and (v) identify methods to rapidly to mitigate problems. The above information will be collected by executing and implementing agencies through its PMCU and respective PIU which is responsible for monitoring the day-to- day resettlement activities of the project through the following instruments:

50. Internal Monitoring. The internal monitoring by PMCU/PIU will include (i) administrative monitoring to ensure that implementation is on schedule and problems are dealt with on a timely basis; and (ii) socio-economic monitoring during and after the relocation process to ensure that people are settled and recovering. This will utilize the baseline information established by the socio-economic survey of displaced persons undertaken during subproject preparation; and (iii) overall monitoring whether recovery has taken place successfully and on time. Monitoring will also include the following:

51. The indicators for achievement of objectives during Resettlement Plan implementation are of two kinds such as (i) Process Indicators (Indicating project inputs, expenditure, staff deployment, etc.); and (ii) Output Indicators: Indicating results in terms of numbers of displaced persons compensated, area of temporarily occupied lands restored with topsoil (and other pre- project features), number of displaced persons provided with skills training, etc. Input and output indicators related to physical progress of the work will include items such as:

(v) Relocation of displaced persons completed. (vi) Project employment provided to displaced persons. (vii) Infrastructure rehabilitated or constructed. (viii) Income restoration activities initiated. (ix) Skills training of displaced persons initiated. (x) Number of households displaced and resettled. (xi) Monitoring and evaluation reports submitted.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. The City Region Development Project (CRDP, the Project) will be financed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and is being formulated as a project loan using the sector approach to be implemented over a six-year period (January 2011 to December 2016). This document is a draft Resettlement Plan prepared for the Narayanganj Solid Waste Management subproject. It is based on a feasibility level study and preliminary engineering design and will be updated at the final detailed engineering stage. The Resettlement Plan is prepared in accordance with the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009 (SPS), Government of Bangladesh’s (the Government) policy, i.e., the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Ordinance, 1982 (ARIPO), and the Resettlement Framework adopted for CRDP. It is classified as Category B according to ADB’s SPS as minimal land acquisition and resettlement is required for this subproject.

2. The Narayanganj subproject consists of two components namely (i) eight solid waste transfer stations (50X30 square feet each), and (ii) one sanitary landfill site (2 acres). Design measures were adopted to minimize involuntary resettlement taking into consideration available Right of Way (ROW) for transfer stations and available government land for the landfill site.

3. Summary of Resettlement Impacts. The subproject will affect 17 households who are considered to be temporarily displaced and are taken as economically displaced households. These are hawkers and vendors operating small shops on government land. The structures are temporary in nature. Of the 17 displaced households, 11 are considered vulnerable (e.g., one woman-headed, and 10 below the poverty line). Vulnerable households are entitled to additional assistance under this resettlement plan.

5. Implementation Arrangements. The subproject will be managed and implemented through a Project Implementation Unit (PIU) based in Narayanganj Pourashava with the overall support and guidance of the Project Management Coordination Unit (PMCU) based at the Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) Headquarters in Dhaka. The detailed design, preparation and implementation of the capital investments will be supported by (i) consultancy support (both international and national); and (ii) technical support from LGED. The PIU will implement the Resettlement Plan with support from the PMCU and consultants. The PIU will provide adequate and appropriate replacement structures or cash compensation at full replacement cost, adequate compensation for partially damaged structures, and relocation assistance, as per the entitlement matrix within this Resettlement Plan. Income restoration assistance to the affected persons includes both short and medium term strategies. The Government will provide all funds for resettlement in a timely manner.

A. Overview

1. The City Region Development Project (CRDP, the Project) emphasizes economic growth in Dhaka and Khulna city regions of Bangladesh through (i) creation of an enabling environment towards improved governance and capacity building of the local governments, and (ii) prioritized investments in infrastructure sectors in the two regions. The objectives of CRDP are (i) to improve the regional economic and social context through long-term development plans and investment programs, set within an institutional and regulatory context that will ensure implementation and review; (ii) to improve the capacity and mandate of local government to govern and to invest in improved economic activity at local level; (iii) to improve the economic context for sustainable commercial and industrial growth; and (iv) to improve the economic and social needs of the urban population, as an inclusive aspect of the CRDP. The subprojects are largely built around ‘integrated area planning’ principles which enhance economic activity in the regional context and provide opportunities for investment. The primary purpose of the Narayanganj subproject is to improve public health and the urban environment through integrated solid waste management (SWM). The proposed subproject is to ensure that the collection and disposal of solid waste is sustainable, protects public health, and results in improved environmental conditions and practices. This is a Resettlement Plan to address involuntary resettlement impacts to affected persons in the subproject area.

B. Subproject Components

2. The Narayanganj subproject consists of two components namely (i) eight solid waste transfer stations (50X30 square feet each), and (ii) one sanitary landfill site (2 acres). Design measures were adopted to minimize involuntary resettlement taking into consideration available ROW for transfer stations and available government land for the landfill site. Further explanation of the subproject design is provided below.

1. Primary Collection

3. House-to-house primary collection will be implemented in Narayanganj Pourashava, geared towards collecting up to 55 tons of domestic waste per day from all households, using a simple segregation at source approach. Private sector operators, licensed by the Pourashava will collect waste from houses using tricycle vans. An additional 150 vans would be required to cover the solid waste generated in Narayanganj. The household service will be extended to the whole of Pourashava including the markets and other commercial and community facilities. No involuntary resettlement impacts are expected from primary collection activities.

2. Solid Waste Transfer Stations

4. Primary collectors will bring segregated solid waste to eight transfer stations where the waste will be transferred from the tricycles vans to conventional trucks, after which the trucks will transfer the waste to the proposed sanitary landfill site. This will provide the means to achieve the transfer efficiently and without significant environmental impact. Each transfer station will require a dedicated land area of around 50X30 square feet (size of transfer station will depend on site specific dimensions which is to be decided at detailed design). As the sites are within government owned land, no land acquisition is required. However, involuntary resettlement impacts will include impacts to hawkers/street vendors.

3. Sanitary Landfill

5. During Phase 1 of this subproject (this Resettlement Plan addresses Phase 1 only)1 the subproject will rehabilitate the existing dump site in Narayanganj into a sanitary landfill site and resource recovery facility (e.g., composting), therefore providing significant environmental and economic benefits to the community. The dumpsite for Narayanganj Pourashava, known as Ponchoboti, is located nearly 2.5 km from the town centre. The existing area is 2 acres. It is estimated that Narayanganj Pourashava is generating 55 tons of waste/day, where 48 tons of waste is organic. As per the estimate, about 4 tons will be filled every day, such that the landfill site can be used for up to 1,663 days or around 4.5 years at existing use rates. By this time, Phase 2 of the project will be implemented. As the location of the landfill site is government owned, no land acquisition is required, however, there are some hawkers operating small shops on the edge of the property which will require relocation.

II. SCOPE OF LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT

6. There will be 17 total households affected by the project (8 at the transfer stations, and 7 at the landfill site), all of them being hawkers operating small shops on government land on a temporary basis.2 These small shops/kiosks are within temporary structures (e.g., bamboo sheds, small wooden or small tin shed structures). There is no land acquisition required for this subproject and its components. The land requirements for the landfill and transfer stations are minimal and hence limited impacts will occur. Specific design measures have been adopted to minimize involuntary resettlement by taking in to consideration existing available government land for the proposed landfill site. The impacts are limited to temporary economic displacement and relocation of hawkers. A summary of resettlement impacts are described Table 1. A detailed description of each proposed transfer station location and the landfill site along with its resettlement impacts are given in Appendix 1.

Table 1: Summary of Land Acquisition and Resettlement Impacts Sl Name of the Land Acquisition Involuntary Resettlement Remarks No Components 1 Primary Not required None This does not require Collection any physical construction. 2 Solid Waste Not required Temporary Impacts to 8 Out of the proposed 8 Transfer hawkers/vendors/squatters transfer stations only 2 Stations (8 Nos) stations have hawkers who are operating small shops. 3 Landfill at Not required Temporary Impacts to 9 The land belongs to the Narayanganj hawkers government/pourashava. These 9 hawkers are squatters and they run their small temporary shops on government land.

1 Phase 2 will develop a regional landfill site which is to include Narayanganj and other surrounding Pourashavas who are actively searching for land to implement Phase 2. This plan will serve the longer term needs of the pourashavas. A separate Resettlement Plan will be prepared for Phase 2 when it is ready. 2 As the Resettlement Plan will be updated at the detailed design stage, and the hawkers defined at the time of the census survey (the cut off date for receiving entitlements) the number of hawkers may be subject to change. 3

III. SOCIOECONOMIC INFORMATION AND PROFILE

8. Street Hawkers and Vendors. The subproject will impact street 17 households who are considered hawkers and vendors operating on government land. These structures are temporary in nature. The socioeconomic findings of the census are described below.

9. The socioeconomic profile of the displaced persons is homogenous nature. In addition to the inventory of assets the census survey recorded basic demographic data. These households are mostly engaged in small-scale business activities such as small shops, eatery, beetle shops, shoe maker and small repair shop. None of the households belong to Indigenous People or ethnic minority group as most of the displaced persons are Muslims. The major source of income of these vendors and hawkers households are the small business activities. The census survey revealed that some of the displaced persons have incomes below the poverty line are therefore considered vulnerable.

10. Average Monthly Income of displaced persons. The average income of the displaced households varies from each other. A majority of the households (7 displaced households) earn average monthly income in the range of Tk5,000 to 10,000. Around 11 displaced households reported that their income level per month between Tk11,000 to 15,000. Details are given in Table 2.

Source: Census Survey, June 2010.

11. Vulnerable Households. Vulnerable households are defined as (i) women-headed displaced households, and (ii) physically handicapped displaced household and displaced households below poverty line.4 The total numbers of vulnerable displaced households are 11

3 The survey team was trained by the international resettlement specialist consultant and the survey was closely monitored on a regular basis. The census survey included various aspects including (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) temporary impacts on the hawkers’ business activities. 4 Below Poverty line has been calculated on the basis of general formula which is $1 per day per person. The average family size in the subproject area is 4.5 and the $1= Tk72. Therefore, the threshold for poverty line has been considered as Tk9,720 income per month per household.

4 out of which 1 displaced household is women headed and 10 displaced households fall below the poverty line. Details are given in Table 3.

13. The type of structures is classified based on the type of construction material, their usability and the age of the structure. All the structures are temporary meaning they do not have a permanent foundation and are characterized as having bamboo pillars, tripol/plastic/thatched structures covering small areas. Therefore, these can be easily shifted to another place without much disruption.

14. It was found that 10 structures were reported to be 1 year old, 5 structures between 1 and 5 years old and 2 structures between 5 to 10 years of old. Details on the age of structures are given in Table 5.

17. Gender. During disbursement of assistance and compensation, priority will be given to female headed households. Joint ownership in the name of husband and wife will be offered in case of non-female headed households where the asset was acquired during their marriage.

IV. INFORMATION DISCLOSURE, CONSULTATION, AND PARTICIPATION

A. Public Consultation

18. During subproject preparation, consultations were held with the official representatives of the Narayanganj Pourashava, apart from the communities in the subproject area. The issues covered during these consultations included selection of subprojects and identification of key issues including addressing the current gaps in provision of basic services and improvement of urban environment conditions in the Narayanganj Pourashava area. These consultations (Table 8) provided an understanding of the needs and concerns of the project communities and the relevant stakeholders. Additionally, focus group discussions were also conducted with the local community especially with the displaced persons and the summary of these consultations is given in Appendix 3.

B. Information Disclosure

19. Project information will be continually disseminated through disclosure of resettlement planning documents. Resettlement information leaflets containing information on compensation, entitlement and resettlement management adopted for the subproject will be made available in local language (Bangla) and the same will be distributed to displaced persons. The PIU Resettlement Support staff (RSS) will keep the displaced persons 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 especially, the market place which will be easily accessible to the displaced persons. The summary of the Resettlement Plan and the entitlement matrix will be translated into the local language; disclosed to the displaced persons; and made available at PIU, local offices and libraries (or other pubic places, and at the LGED office. A copy of the Resettlement Plan will be disclosed on the LGED and ADB website.

C. Continued Consultation and Participation

20. For continued consultations, the following steps are to be taken:

(vii) Attempts will be made to ensure that vulnerable groups understand the process and to take their specific needs into account.

21. The details on consultation process and disclosure at various phases of project development including the responsible agency are described in Appendix 5.

V. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISMS

22. A grievance redress mechanism (GRM) will be established in Narayanganj soon after project commencement. The first level and most accessible and immediate venue for the fastest resolve of grievances is the PIU, chiefly through the RSS and Project Manager, with assistance from the Resettlement Specialist (National and International-NRS and IRS) of the Management, Design and Supervision Consultant (MDSC). The contact phone number will be posted in the project areas. Grievances will be resolved through continuous interactions with affected persons and the PIU will answer queries and resolve grievances regarding various issues including land acquisition, structures acquisition, livelihood impacts, entitlements, and assistance. Corrective measures will be undertaken at the field-level itself within seven days. All grievances will be documented with full information of the person and issue.

23. Should the grievance remain unresolved, the PIU's Project Manager, will activate the second level of the GRM by referring the issue (with written documentation) to the local GRC of the Pourashava, who will, based on review of the grievances, address them in consultation with the RSS of the PIU and PMCU, and affected persons. A hearing will be called, if necessary, where the affected person can present his/her concern/issues. The process will promote conflict resolution through mediation. The local GRC will consist of the following persons: (i) Chief Executive Officer of the Pourashava (GRC Chair); (ii) representative of the head of the Pourashava; (iii) representative of the affected persons; (iv) official of the land registry department; (v) official of the Department of Environment (DOE)’s divisional office; (vi) town planner of the Pourashava; and (vii) Environmental Specialist/RSS of the PIU. The local GRC shall meet twice a month, unless the Project Director informs that there are no grievances to address, or they shall meet as needed as per the severity of the grievance. The local GRC will suggest corrective measures at the field level and assign responsibilities for implementing its decisions.

24. The functions of the local GRC are as follows: (i) provide support to displaced persons on problems arising from land acquisition (temporary or permanent); asset acquisition; and eligibility for entitlements, compensation and assistance; (ii) record grievances of displaced persons, categorize and prioritize them and provide solutions within a month; and (iii) report to the aggrieved parties about developments regarding their grievances and decisions of the GRC.

25. Should the grievance still remain unresolved, the PIU Project Manager, will activate the third level of the GRM by informing the PMCU Project Director who will, based on review of the local GRC minutes and consultation with the PIU Project Manager, activate the PMCU level GRC. This committee shall comprise the following representatives:(i) Project Director PMCU; (ii) Environmental/Resettlement Officer of the PMCU; (iii) representative from Land Ministry; (iv) representative from DOE; (v) representative of the displaced persons; and (vi) Environmental/Social Safeguards officer of the PIU.

PMCU will be responsible for processing and placing all papers before the PMCU GRC, recording decisions, issuing minutes of the meetings and taking follow up action to see that formal orders are issued and the decisions carried out.

27. In the event that a grievance is not addressed by the PIU, local GRC, or the PMCU GRC, the displaced person can seek legal redress of the grievance in the appropriate Courts (the fourth level of the GRM). A grievance redress mechanism and procedure is depicted in Figure 1.

VI. LEGAL FRAMEWORK

29. The Government's policy through ARIPO does not cover project-affected persons without titles or ownership record, such as informal settler/squatters, occupiers, and informal tenants and lease-holders (without document) and does not ensure replacement value of the property acquired. The ARIPO has no provision of resettlement assistance for restoration of livelihoods of affected persons except for the legal compensation. Gaps between national law and ADB policy are identified and bridging measures are included in the Entitlement Matrix for the project, described below. ADB will not finance the project if it does not comply with its SPS nor will it finance the project if it does not comply with its host country's social and environmental laws. Where discrepancy between the ADB and Government policies exist, the ADB policy will prevail. Moreover, the SPS applies to all ADB-financed and/or ADB-administered sovereign projects, and their components regardless of the source of financing, including investment projects funded by a loan; and/or a grant; and/or other means.

VII. ENTITLEMENTS, ASSISTANCE, AND BENEFITS

A. Eligibility

30. All displaced persons who are identified in the project-impacted areas on the cut-off date5 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 licensed and non-licensed vendors. Compensation eligibility is limited by a cut-off date as set for this project on the day of the beginning of the detailed census during the detailed design. Displaced persons 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 (60 days), requested to vacate premises and dismantle affected structures prior to project implementation.

B. Entitlements

31. The entitlement matrix in Table 9 summarizes the main types of losses and the corresponding entitlements in accordance with the Government and ADB policies.

5 The cut-off date for title holders is based according to the formal notification, and for non-titleholders the date of the census survey during the detailed design. Those who encroach into the subproject area after the cut-off date will not be entitled to compensation or any other assistance. The PIU will take video and photo documentation to ensure entitled persons on the cut-off date.

In order to make the displaced persons employable, the PIU will identify the required skills for the construction activities prior to the commencement of the construction and provide the required training to the displaced persons.

IX. RESETTLEMENT BUDGET AND FINANCING PLAN

39. The resettlement cost estimate for the Narayanganj solid waste management subproject (Table 10) includes eligible compensation, resettlement assistance, as outlined in the entitlement matrix, and support cost for Resettlement Plan implementation. The Government of Bangladesh will release funds to the PMCU and the PMCU will release funds to the PIU in a timely manner. The PIU in Narayanganj Pourashava will then release funds for resettlement. The total resettlement cost for the subproject is Tk4.22 million. The cost items of this Resettlement Plan are outlined below:

(i) Compensation for structures (hawkers/vendors) and other immovable assets at their replacement cost; (ii) Assistance in lieu of the loss of income and livelihood; (iii) Assistance for shifting of the structures; (iv) Training allowance; and (v) Special assistance to vulnerable groups for their livelihood restoration.

X. INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS

A. Project Management Coordination Unit

40. The LGED will be the executing agency responsible for overall guidance and project implementation. A PMCU headed by a Project Director will implement the project investments and will be responsible for overall planning, management, coordination, supervision and progress monitoring of the CRDP in the two regions. The PMCU will ensure compliance with assurances, including safeguards and preparing and submitting reports, resettlement plan monitoring updates. To ensure effective implementation of the land acquisition and resettlement aspects, two full time PMCU resettlement safeguard officers will be recruited, including one Resettlement Compliance Officer primarily responsible for compliance with legal requirements of the Government, and one Resettlement Surveyor responsible for overseeing PIU preparation of the RP for subprojects and data collection. The MDSC will recruit one international and one national resettlement specialist to assist the PMCU in this regard. The PMCU will review monthly reports submitted by PIUs and will consolidate them into quarterly reports to ADB. Corrective actions to be taken when necessary based on close monitoring and results of grievance redress process.

B. Project Implementation Unit

41. The subproject will be managed and implemented through the PIU based in Narayanganj Pourashava. The PIU will be responsible for carrying out the detailed design of the subprojects and updating Resettlement Plans for the sample subprojects and prepare new Resettlement Plans for future subprojects under the sector approach The PIU will ensure compliance with safeguards requirements of the Government and ADB. The PIU will be responsible for day-to-day monitoring of the project progress, including the implementation of the resettlement provisions in the project.

42. The capacity to implement safeguards planning and implementation at the PIU level is not currently adequate. Therefore, it is proposed that resettlement support staff (or facilitators) at the PIU level will be recruited. The number of resettlement support staff at each PIU will be commensurate to the scale of involuntary resettlement impacts (e.g., the greater the impact, the greater number of support staff needed). All PIU and PMCU safeguards staff will undergo training conducted by the consultant team’s resettlement specialists. Each PIU will prepare monitoring reports on all aspects concerning to resettlement planning and implementation of the land acquisition and resettlement issues and report to the PMCU on a monthly basis.

C. Management, Design and Supervision Consultants

43. The MDSC will hire one International Resettlement Specialist (IRS) and one National Resettlement Specialist (NRS). They will be responsible for updating/finalizing6 the Resettlement Plans of sample subprojects in accordance with this Resettlement Framework and based on the detailed engineering design. These specialists will also prepare new RPs for future subprojects under the sector approach consistent with this Resettlement Framework. This will be done in close coordination with PIU resettlement support staff and PMCU resettlement officers. The IRS and the NRS will assist in the overall supervision of the projects and ensure all plans are implemented in a smooth and timely manner in accordance with the provisions of the Resettlement Plan. They will also prepare and implement training and capacity development programs for resettlement planning for the PIU and PMCU safeguards staff (see section below on Training and Capacity Building), and will closely work with the PMCU and PIUs to ensure displaced persons are compensated before displacement occurs, including ongoing rehabilitation measures. Further details on agencies responsible for Resettlement Plan activities are in Table 11 and the organization chart for RP implementation is depicted in Figure 2.

XII. MONITORING AND REPORTING

45. The extent of monitoring activities will be commensurate with the project’s risks and impacts. Monthly monitoring reports to be submitted by PIU to PMCU. PMCU to consolidate monthly reports into semi-annual monitoring reports to ADB. These reports should form a part of the project progress reports submitted by PMCU to ADB.

46. The objectives of monitoring are to (i) ensure that the standard of living of displaced persons are restored or improved; (ii) ascertain whether activities are progressing as per schedule and the timelines are being met; (iii) assess if compensation, rehabilitation measures are sufficient; (iv) identify problems or potential issues; and (v) identify methods to rapidly to mitigate problems. The above information will be collected by executing and implementing agencies through its PMCU and respective PIU which is responsible for monitoring the day-to-day resettlement activities of the project through the following instruments:

47. Internal Monitoring. The internal monitoring by PMCU/PIU will include (i) administrative monitoring to ensure that implementation is on schedule and problems are dealt with on a timely basis; and (ii) socio-economic monitoring during and after the relocation process to ensure that people are settled and recovering. This will utilize the baseline information established by the socio-economic survey of displaced persons undertaken during subproject preparation; and (iii) overall monitoring whether recovery has taken place successfully and on time. Monitoring will also include the following:

48. The indicators for achievement of objectives during Resettlement Plan implementation are of two kinds such as (i) Process Indicators (Indicating project inputs, expenditure, staff deployment, etc.); and (ii) Output Indicators: Indicating results in terms of numbers of displaced persons compensated, area of temporarily occupied lands restored with topsoil (and other pre-project features), number of displaced persons provided with skills training, etc. Input and output indicators related to physical progress of the work will include items such as:

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

1. The City Region Development Project (CRDP, the Project) will be financed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and is being formulated as a project loan using the sector approach to be implemented over a six-year period (January 2011 to December 2016). This document is a draft Resettlement Plan prepared for the Shakhari Bazaar urban renewal Subproject (the subproject). It is based on a feasibility level study and preliminary engineering design and will be updated at the final detailed engineering stage. The Resettlement Plan is prepared in accordance with the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009 (SPS), Government of Bangladesh’s (the Government) policy, i.e., the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Ordinance, 1982 (ARIPO), and the Resettlement Framework adopted for the Project. It is classified as Category B according to ADB’s SPS as minimal land acquisition and resettlement is required. The scope of this Resettlement Plan is based on improvements to the public realm (e.g., utility relocation, paving, and traffic management) and restoration improvements to two identified buildings (Nos. 53 and 70) taken up as pilot buildings.

2. Summary of Resettlement Impacts. There is no land acquisition envisaged. The restoration of two pilot buildings will result in temporary impacts to building tenants through short-term relocation. There will be a total of 18 households temporarily relocated by the subproject. Of affected households, 13 are considered to be residential owners followed by 2 commercial owners, 2 residential tenants and 1 commercial tenant. Each will be ensured a guaranteed return to their original residence after works are completed through agreements between the owners/tenants and the Dhaka City Corporation (DCC). There are a total 15 vulnerable households they earn incomes below the poverty line. Improvements to the public realm will cause minimal temporary disturbance to local shops and street vendors during construction. These are to be mitigated through good construction practices (e.g., night works, maintaining access, etc.) to minimize disturbance. Entitlements for all impacts are outlined in the Resettlement Plan.

3. Public Consultations. Consultations were carried out during Resettlement Plan preparation and will continue throughout the subproject cycle. A grievance redress mechanism will be made available as explained in this Resettlement Plan.

4. Implementation Arrangements. The subproject will be managed and implemented through a Project Implementation Unit (PIU) based in Dhaka City Corporation office with the overall support and guidance of the Project Management Coordination Unit (PMCU) based at Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) Headquarters in Dhaka. The detailed design, preparation, and implementation of the capital investments will be supported by: (i) consultancy support (both international and national); and (ii) technical support from LGED. The PIU will implement the Resettlement Plan with support from the PMCU and resettlement specialists engaged by LGED. The PIU will provide adequate and appropriate relocation options (temporary), shifting allowance, cash compensation at full replacement cost, and adequate compensation for partially damaged structures as per the entitlement matrix within this Resettlement Plan. Income restoration assistance to the affected persons includes both short and medium term strategies. The Government will provide all funds for resettlement in a timely manner.

5. Resettlement Plan Implementation and Monitoring. All temporary relocation, compensation, and entitlements will be paid prior to displacement however, ongoing income rehabilitation activities where relevant, will continue after construction begins. Written confirmation of full relocation and compensation to displaced persons must be made to ADB prior to displacement in sections ready for construction, including the two buildings where works will occur. The estimated total period of the implementation of the Resettlement Plan is 13

ii months. Monthly monitoring reports will be submitted by PIU to PMCU. PMCU will consolidate monthly reports into semi-annual monitoring reports or as part of the regular project reporting and will submit to ADB.

I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION

A. Overview

1. The City Region Development Project (CRDP, the Project) emphasizes economic growth in Dhaka and Khulna city regions of Bangladesh through (i) creation of an enabling environment towards improved governance and capacity building of the local governments, and (ii) prioritized investments in infrastructure sectors in the two regions. The objectives of CRDP are (i) to improve the regional economic and social context through long-term development plans and investment programs, set within an institutional and regulatory context that will ensure implementation and review; (ii) to improve the capacity and mandate of local government to govern and to invest in improved economic activity at local level; (iii) to improve the economic context for sustainable commercial and industrial growth; and (iv) to improve the economic and social needs of the urban population, as an inclusive aspect of the CRDP. The subprojects are largely built around ‘integrated area planning’ principles which enhance economic activity in the regional context and provide opportunities for investment.

2. This is a Resettlement Plan prepared for the Shakhari Bazaar Urban Renewal Subproject which is in accordance with the ADB Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009 (SPS), Government of Bangladesh’s (the Government) policy, namely the Acquisition and Requisition of Immovable Property Ordinance 1982 (ARIPO) and the Resettlement Framework1 adopted for the CRDP. The scope of this Resettlement Plan is based on improvements to the public realm (e.g., utility relocation, paving, and traffic management) and restoration improvements to two identified buildings (Nos. 53 and 70) taken up as pilot buildings.

B. Subproject Description

3. Shakhari Bazaar comprises a street over 1,000 feet (300 meters) in length, lined by shop houses, many of which are still occupied by traditional craft workshops. The traditional buildings are typically two or three stories tall, mostly around 100 to 200 years old, with a few even older. Many of the ground floors are older, between 200 to 300 years and were built in the Mughal period. The inner parts of the ground and upper floors are mainly residential, although in some buildings the rear parts of the ground floors are also used for craftwork. Typically, the traditional houses are long and narrow and may contain courtyards opening onto open top-floors. The original Mughal architecture is often embellished by surface decorations and carvings. There are over 100 buildings (covering 142 building lots), including several vacant lots where buildings have been demolished. Lots are typically long and narrow, with widths mainly between three and four meters. Storey heights vary between two and six stories, but with most between three and four stories (72%). Some 79% of the buildings were built before 1900 and very few buildings have been completed in recent years. Over time the traditional Mughal architecture was influenced by colonial architecture, usually extensions built in British-style colonial style architecture and construction, plus other European influences, all of which add to the unique character of the area.

4. Unfortunately the environment has deteriorated dramatically in recent years, and it is now blighted by a high degree of building obsolescence (some structurally unsound) and

1 As per the ADB’s Safeguards Requirement-4 (SR-4) of the SPS-2009, the sector approach requires preparation of Resettlement Framework to guide subproject selection, screening and categorization, social and resettlement assessment, and preparation and implementation of Resettlement Plans of subprojects and to facilitate compliance with the requirements specified in Safeguard Requirements 1–3. The Resettlement Framework is prepared in accordance with the Government and ADB policy related to land acquisition and resettlement.

2 disruption in the public realm. The majority of the remaining buildings of architectural and historic interest are at risk through neglect. In spite of this Shakhari Bazaar (and the adjoining streets) remains remarkably vibrant. Shakhari Bazaar is not yet a major tourist attraction but within the context of current tourist numbers to Bangladesh, the area regularly attracts visitors. The area is identified as an attraction in many of the international tourism publications about Bangladesh. Therefore, the conservation and restoration of Shakhari Bazaar would enhance visitor potential, as borne out by overseas experience.

5. Key Issues and Project Need. From discussions and a site visit with representatives of DCC and the Urban Study Group, the following are key issues confronting Shakhari Bazaar:

(i) The loss of buildings of architectural and historic importance to redevelopment, which is incompatible in nature, scale, detailing and use of materials with the original vernacular architecture and the public realm in general. In this regard the desire of extended families to remain in Shakhari Bazaar has increased the pressure for buildings of six stories more (often illegal), which is out of keeping with the traditional two- to three-storey form of the original buildings; (ii) A lack of building maintenance by both the Government and the private sector, leading to buildings of architectural and historic significance being in a poor state of repair, and which to varying degrees may be structurally unsound. To this extent there have been previous surveys of structural condition, the most recent of which identified some 12 buildings in Shakhari Bazaar as structurally unsound; (iii) Buildings of architectural and historic significance where the original exteriors, internal layout and decoration have been badly affected by poorly designed and constructed extensions; (iv) Complex ownership situations2 acting as a constraint to public and private investment in revitalising the area; (v) The lack of basic services, including public water supply and effective sewerage, in many of the properties. It is understood this is at least partly due to a lack of clarity regarding ownership issues; (vi) The potentially attractive appearance of the public realm (street) is damaged by a multitude of power cables and telecommunications wires attached to the buildings, solid waste dumped at the street edge and unattractive street surfacing; and (vii) The vitality and potential attraction of a predominantly pedestrian environment is damaged by the excessive penetration by rickshaws and motorcycles, the majority of which do not appear to have an origin or destination in Shakhari Bazaar.

6. Vision and Objectives. The vision of the Shakhari Bazaar urban renewal subproject is to ensure its long-term sustainability, its culture and its history through a range of actions to upgrade its buildings and spaces, optimizing the potential for the partnership(s) between

2 The ownership situation in Shakhari Bazaar is complex, and there are three main types: (i) Vested Properties – these are properties in the ownership of absentee landlords, whilst their ongoing administration is exercised by the Government, which has let the buildings by various leasehold and rental formulae. There may be several leases and tenancies within each building: it is understood that the vested properties make up around 60% of the buildings in Shakhari Bazaar. It is also understood that the Government is now reviewing the status of the vested properties, with the possibility of returning them to the original owners; (ii) Endowed Properties – these properties are properties given over by Hindu religious interests for individual/family occupancy; and (iii) Private Ownership – private ownership properties are typically occupied by various family interests, such that they may be divided up amongst an extended family and ownership may extend across more than one building. 3

Government, the community and the private sector. To achieve this vision the following four objectives are proposed to ensure:

(i) The retention of the area’s historically-important buildings and to improve the appearance of adjacent buildings (which do not blend well with the nature and scale of traditional architectural forms); (ii) Improvements to the visual appearance and pedestrian environment of the street/public realm for the enjoyment of visitors and the local community; (iii) The needs and aspirations of the community affected by the subproject should be incorporated into the proposed revitalisation of Shakhari Bazaar; and (iv) That the economic value of Shakhari Bazaar should be optimized as an attractive environment for private sector investment in the area’s conservation.

7. The following are the proposed components of the Shakhari Bazaar subproject:

8. Component 1- Relocation of utilities. This activity will include opening the surface of the public realm in Shakhari Bazaar for the placement of new utilities services and (where required) the removal of the existing utilities services. The work will include the provision of connections to the adjoining properties. It will also include the underground re-location within impermeable conduits of all the overhead power and telecommunication equipment currently situated in the public realm.

9. Component 2 – Resurfacing the street and parking area immediately east of Shakhari Bazaar. On completing the reconstruction and re-location of the utilities services the street will need to be re-surfaced in materials appropriate to the environment of the Heritage Area, along with any additional hard and soft street furniture and lighting. Here the parking area immediately to the east of Shakhari Bazaar lends itself to the use of soft landscaping to frame the entrance to the Heritage Area. The new surfacing should be to standards capable of accommodating emergency vehicles.

10. Component 3 – Traffic Management. Access controls on motorized vehicles and rickshaws at specified periods of the day would be enforced by adjustable traffic barriers and blocks, to be installed during the re-surfacing activity.

11. Component 4 - Restoration of buildings with heritage status. Two buildings (nos. 53 and 70) are identified for conservation and restoration as part of the first phase, as a sample demonstration project. Restoration works will vary in accordance with the conditions of those buildings with Heritage Status and through agreement with owners and occupiers. In most cases the internal layouts will remain intact and the restoration works will respect this. However, where the structural condition is particularly bad, the building frontage will be restored but the interiors will be re-built and alternative internal layouts can be considered. Restoration may include (i) structural improvements; (ii) provision of basic amenities such as toilets; (iii) restoration of significant features (such internal courtyards, building façades and detailing); and (iv) other cosmetic improvements, such as new internal plastering.

12. Component 5 - Upgrading the design and provision of utilities to other buildings. For buildings which do not have heritage status the emphasis will be on providing technical guidance and incentives to secure (i) improvements to building façades such that they are more in keeping with the traditional architecture of Shakhari Bazaar; and (ii) provision of basic amenities, such as toilets. The proposed Design Guidelines and Restoration Advice (see above)

4 will serve as a context for action in the restoration of all buildings in Shakhari Bazaar, and in particular for action to improve and/or redevelop private property.

II. SCOPE OF LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT

13. There is no land acquisition envisaged for interventions proposed in the first phase as the improvements to the public realm are within the available right of way (ROW). The restoration of two pilot buildings (Nos 53 and 70) will temporarily relocate the occupants of these building. A total of 18 households will be temporarily relocated. None of these buildings will be permanently affected or displaced.

14. Ownership. Out of the 18 households 15 of them are owners and 3 households are tenant. Additionally, one private temple will be restored.

III. SOCIOECONOMIC INFORMATION AND PROFILE

15. Structured census survey questionnaires (Appendix 2) were used to collect detailed information on the impact to all 18 households in the subproject area who are considered temporarily displaced. The survey was conducted in July 2010.3 Some of the important issues covered during the surveys are (i) type of ownership, (ii) duration of stay, (iii) legal status and ownership, (iv) usage pattern of the buildings, (v) number of tenants, (vi) number of family members, and (vii) their socio-economic details.

16. The two pilot buildings (House Nos. 70 and 53) have 15 owners and 3 tenants. Details are given in Table 1.

22. The total numbers of vulnerable displaced households are 15 as they fall below the poverty line.4

23. Gender. During disbursement of assistance and compensation, priority will be given to female headed households.

24. Summary Socioeconomic Profile. There will be a total of 18 households who will be temporarily displaced by the sub project. The total numbers of vulnerable households are 15 which are below poverty line. There are a total of 14 residential owners, 2 commercial owners and 1 commercial tenants residing in these two pilot buildings. The summary socio-economic details are given in Table 7.

4 Below Poverty line has been calculated on the basis of general formula which is $1 per day per person. The average family size in the subproject area is 5.3 and the $1= Tk72. Therefore, the threshold for poverty line has been considered as Tk11,475 incomes per month per household.

IV. INFORMATION DISCLOSURE, CONSULTATION, AND PARTICIPATION

A. Public Consultation

25. During subproject preparation, consultations were held with the official representatives of DCC, apart from the communities in the subproject area. The issues covered during these consultations included selection of subprojects and identification of key issues including addressing the current gaps in provision of basic services and improvement of urban environment conditions in the Shakhari Bazaar area. These consultations (Table 8) provide an understanding of the needs and concerns of the project communities and the relevant stakeholders. Additionally, focus group discussions were also conducted with the local community especially with the displaced persons and the summary of these consultations is given in Appendix 3.

B. Information Disclosure

26. Project information will be continually disseminated through disclosure of resettlement planning documents. Resettlement information leaflets containing information on compensation, entitlement and resettlement management adopted for the subproject will be made available in local language (Bangla) and the same will be distributed to displaced persons. The PIU the Resettlement Support staff (RSS) will keep the displaced persons 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 especially, the market place which will be easily accessible to the displaced persons. The summary of the Resettlement Plan and the entitlement matrix will be translated into the local language; disclosed to the displaced persons; and made available at PIU, local offices and libraries (or other pubic places, and at the LGED offices. A copy of the Resettlement Plan will be disclosed on the LGED and ADB website.

C. Continued Consultation and Participation

27. For continued consultations, the following steps are to be taken:

(iv) All monitoring and evaluation reports of the resettlement components of the project will be disclosed in the same manner as that of the Resettlement Plan. (v) Key features of the entitlements will be displayed along the project corridor. (vi) The PMCU and PIU will conduct information dissemination sessions at major intersections and solicit the help of the local community leaders to encourage the participation of the displaced persons in Resettlement Plan implementation. (vii) Attempts will be made to ensure that vulnerable groups understand the process and to take their specific needs into account.

28. The details on consultation process and disclosure at various phases of project development including the responsible agency are described in Appendix 5.

V. GRIEVANCE REDRESS MECHANISMS

29. A grievance redress mechanism (GRM) shall be set up in the Dhaka City Corporation PIU office to register grievances of the people regarding technical, social and environmental aspects. The process will designed to be transparent, gender responsive, culturally appropriate and commensurate to the risks and adverse impacts of the project, as well as readily accessible to all segments of the affected people. The project GRM will not supersede any legal government grievance procedures. Affected people are to be informed about the mechanism through media and public outlets. This participatory process shall ensure that all views of the people are adequately reviewed and suitably incorporated in the design and implementation process. The GRM will be implemented in three levels.

30. The first level and most accessible and immediate venue for the fastest resolve of grievances is the PIU, chiefly through the resettlement safeguards officer and Project Manager, with assistance from the Resettlement Specialist(s) of the Management Design Supervision Consultant (MDSC). The contact phone number will be posted in the project areas. Grievances will be resolved through continuous interactions with affected persons and the PIU will answer queries and resolve grievances regarding various issues including Environmental Management Plan implementation, land acquisition, structures acquisition, livelihood impacts, entitlements, and assistance. Corrective measures will be undertaken at the field-level itself within seven days. All grievances will be documented with full information of the person and issue.

31. Should the grievance remain unresolved, the PIU's Project Manager, will activate the second level of the GRM by referring the issue (with written documentation) to the local GRC of the City Corporation, who will, based on review of the grievances, address them in consultation with the Safeguards Officer of the PIU and PMCU, and affected persons. A hearing will be called, if necessary, where the affected person can present his/her concern/issues. The process will promote conflict resolution through mediation. The local GRC will consist of the following persons: (i) Chief Executive Officer of the City Corporation (GRC Chair); (ii) representative of the mayor of the City Corporation; (iii) representative of the affected persons; (iv) official of the land registry department; (v) official of the Department of Environment (DOE) divisional office; (vi) town planner of the City Corporation; and (vii) Environmental/Social safeguards Officer of the PIU. The local GRC shall meet twice a month, unless the Project Director of the PIU informs that there are no grievances to address, or they shall meet as needed as per the severity of the grievance. The local GRC will suggest corrective measures at the field level and assign responsibilities for implementing its decisions.

32. The functions of the local GRC are as follows: (i) provide support to affected persons on problems arising from land acquisition (temporary or permanent); asset acquisition; and 11 eligibility for entitlements, compensation and assistance; (ii) record grievances of affected persons, categorize and prioritize them and provide solutions within a month; and (iii) report to the aggrieved parties about developments regarding their grievances and decisions of the GRC.

33. Should the grievance still remain unresolved, the PIU Project Manager, will activate the third level of the GRM by informing the PMCU Project Director who will, based on review of the local GRC minutes and consultation with the PIU Project Manager, activate the PMCU level GRC. This committee shall comprise the following representatives: (i) Project Director PMCU; (ii) Environmental/Resettlement Safeguards Officer of the PMCU; (iii) representative from Land Ministry; (iv) representative from DOE; (v) Representative of the affected persons; and (vi) Environmental/Social Safeguards officer of the PIU.

34. The GRC at the PMCU level shall meet based on the receipt of grievances, and the meeting shall be convened within 7 days of receipt of the grievance by the PMCU, and grievances redressed with 15 days. The Environmental/Resettlement Safeguards Officer of the PMCU will be responsible for processing and placing all papers before the PMCU GRC, recording decisions, issuing minutes of the meetings and taking follow up action to see that formal orders are issued and the decisions carried out.

35. In the event that a grievance is not addressed by the PIU, local GRC, or the PMCU GRC, the affected person can seek legal redress of the grievance in the appropriate Courts (fourth level of GRM). Figure 1 illustrates the GRM.

VI. LEGAL FRAMEWORK

36. This Resettlement Plan is prepared based on all applicable legal and policy frameworks of the Government (i.e., the ARIPO) and ADB's SPS. A summary of applicable acts and policies is presented provided in the Project's Resettlement Framework.

37. The Government's policy through ARIPO does not cover project-affected persons without titles or ownership record, such as informal settler/squatters, occupiers, and informal tenants and lease-holders (without document) and does not ensure replacement value of the property acquired. The ARIPO has no provision of resettlement assistance for restoration of livelihoods of affected persons except for the legal compensation. Gaps between national law and ADB policy are identified and bridging measures are included in the Entitlement Matrix for the project, described below. ADB will not finance the project if it does not comply with its SPS nor will it finance the project if it does not comply with its host country's social and environmental laws. Where discrepancy between the ADB and Government policies exist, the ADB policy will prevail. Moreover, the SPS applies to all ADB-financed and/or ADB-administered sovereign projects, and their components regardless of the source of financing, including investment projects funded by a loan; and/or a grant; and/or other means.

VII. ENTITLEMENTS, ASSISTANCE, AND BENEFITS

A. Eligibility

38. All displaced persons who are identified in the project-impacted areas on the cut-off date5 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 licensed and non-licensed vendors. Compensation eligibility is limited by a cut-off date as set for this project on the day of the beginning of the detailed census during the detailed design. Displaced persons 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 (60 days), requested to vacate premises and dismantle affected structures prior to project implementation.

B. Entitlements

39. The entitlement matrix in Table 9 summarizes the main types of losses and the corresponding entitlements in accordance with the Government and ADB policies.

C. Assessment of Compensation Unit Values

40. Shifting Allowance. Shifting allowances have been considered to be Tk10,000 per household to help the displaced person shift all their personal belongings. The rental allowances have been considered to be Rs.5,000/- per household for a period of one year which becomes Tk60,000 per household.

41. Business or Sources of Income. The PIU will conduct a detailed census survey which is to include actual monthly income of the displaced persons followed by a verification of the income data based on the tax payment (for titled business owners). In the absence of the authentic income proof, the unit price will be collected from the displaced person during the survey. See income restoration and rehabilitation measures below.

42. Temporary Source of Income. The compensation for temporary impacts will be decided based on the average daily income which will be derived from the census survey. The unit cost for temporary loss of income for mobile vendors has been derived based on the minimum wage for the entire period of disruption. The average income in the project area as collected during the census is approximately 9,000 and therefore, the unit cost for one time assistance equivalent to one year loss of income is Tk108,000 per household.

VIII. INCOME RESTORATION AND REHABILITATION

A. Basic Provision for Relocation

43. Relocation in this sub project will be of temporary in nature. None of the households will be permanently displaced and will be guaranteed return through written agreement between themselves and the DCC.6 The agreements are to be legally enforceable and agreeable to the displaced persons. All agreements are to be confirmed through an independent third party.7 The objective of the subproject is to restore the heritage building and to bring back its original owners and occupants after the restoration process is done. Therefore, resettlement is characterized as a temporary shifting of affected households until the buildings are declared safe and ready for residence. Buildings were agreed to be worked on one at a time to minimize impacts. The Implementing Agency, DCC in this case, will provide adequate and appropriate replacement structures and cash compensation in the form of rental allowances for the entire period of relocation. The DCC will facilitate displaced persons in finding alternate residences agreeable to the displaced persons. All displaced persons are to be relocated and all entitlements provided before displacement occurs. The entitlement also includes shifting allowances. DCC will ensure that all temporary displaced persons are settled in a new place and DCC will be responsible to bring them back to their original place (through signed agreements) of stay once the restoration activities are complete. The implementing agency will compensate non-title holders for the loss of assets other than land, such as dwellings, and also for other improvements to the land, at full replacement cost. The entitlements to the non- titleholders will be given only if they occupied the land or structures in the project area prior to the cut-off date.

6 The PIU will help find suitable alternative locations for displaced persons and ensure all persons have an equally similar location (with equal or better quality and access to services including water, sanitation, electricity, transport, education, etc.) to reside prior to physical displacement. The PIU will provide adequate and appropriate replacement structures, cash compensation at full replacement cost, adequate compensation for partially damaged structures, and relocation assistance, as per applicable according to the entitlement matrix. 7 Draft agreements should be sent to ADB for review.

44. To help affected persons receive entitlements and relocating themselves, a relocation strategy will be adopted in the subproject including (i) all compensation will be paid and other resettlement entitlements will be before physical displacement; (ii) at least 60 days advance notice will be given; (iii) the PIU and Resettlement Support Staff will assist displaced persons during verification of assets and will provide necessary counseling on payment of compensation and assistance; (iv) in close consultation with the displaced persons, the PIU Resettlement Support Staff will fix the shifting dates agreed with the displaced persons in writing and the arrangements desired by the displaced persons with respect to their entitlements; and (v) in case of self relocation, the PIU will assist the displaced persons in finding alternative site within the area if so desired by the displaced persons.

B. Income and Livelihood Rehabilitation

45. Income restoration assistance to the displaced persons includes both short and medium term strategies. Short term income restoration strategies are for immediate assistance during relocation and include the following:

(i) Compensation for structure paid in full before displacement occurs; (ii) Assistance in finding alternate location for continuation of livelihood/living arrangements; (iii) Where provision of alternative sites is not feasible (for temporary impacts), compensation of lost income for period of disruption (if less than three months) or lump sum for three months lost income (at replacement cost) or minimum wage rates (whichever is higher); (iv) Shifting allowance for reestablishing business elsewhere based on actual cost of moving/unloading; (v) 60 days’ advance notice to shift business; (vi) One time assistance for lost income based on three months lost income (at replacement cost) or minimum wage rates (whichever is higher); (vii) Consideration for project employment; (viii) For vulnerable households, additional subsistence allowance equivalent to Tk10,000/household for restoring or enhancing their livelihood. Vulnerable households will be prioritized in any project employment; (ix) Provision of temporary access where possible to continue business; and (x) Restoration of affected land, structure, utilities, common property resource for continuation of business after construction is completed.

46. Medium-term income restoration activities will include skill development training based on need. The PIU will identify suitable local training institutes and pay fees directly to the training institution and provide the names of entitled person(s).

47. Where necessary, training may include (i) capacity building, enterprise training, and facilitating economic activities to landowners; and (ii) training for self employment to agricultural laborers. Training for self-employment and skill development which may include but not limited to (i) plumbing; (ii) electrical; (iii) automobile repair; and (iv) electronic repair and service, etc. Training will be imparted to any willing displaced person losing income or livelihood.

48. During the construction stage the displaced persons, especially vulnerable displaced persons, will be given preference over others in being engaged in project activities suitable to their skills. In order to make the displaced persons employable, the PIU will identify the required

16 skills for the construction activities prior to the commencement of the construction and provide the required training to the displaced persons.

IX. RESETTLEMENT BUDGET AND FINANCING PLAN

49. The resettlement cost estimate for the Shakhari Bazaar subproject (Table 10) includes eligible compensation, resettlement assistance, as outlined in the entitlement matrix, and support cost for Resettlement Plan implementation. The Government of Bangladesh will release funds to the PMCU and the PMCU will release funds to the PIU in a timely manner. The PIU in DCC will then release funds for resettlement to the entitled displaced persons. The total estimated resettlement cost for the subproject is Tk0.07 million. The costs are outlined below:

(i) Compensation in the form of rental allowances for the temporary displaced households; (ii) Assistance in lieu of the loss of income and livelihood ; (iii) Assistance for shifting of personal items and structures; (iv) Training allowance; and (v) Special assistance to vulnerable groups for their livelihood restoration.

X. INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENTS

A. Project Management Coordination Unit

50. The Local Government Engineering Department (LGED) will be the executing agency responsible for overall guidance and project implementation. A PMCU headed by a Project Director will implement the project investments and will be responsible for overall planning, management, coordination, supervision and progress monitoring of the CRDP in the two regions. The PMCU will ensure compliance with assurances, including safeguards and preparing and submitting reports, resettlement plan monitoring updates. To ensure effective implementation of the land acquisition and resettlement aspects, two full time PMCU resettlement safeguard officers will be recruited, including one Resettlement Compliance Officer primarily responsible for compliance with legal requirements of the Government, and one Resettlement Surveyor responsible for overseeing PIU preparation of the Resettlement Plan for subprojects and data collection. The MDSC will recruit one international and one national resettlement specialist to assist the PMCU in this regard. The PMCU will review monthly reports submitted by PIUs and will consolidate them into quarterly reports to ADB. Corrective actions to be taken when necessary based on close monitoring and results of grievance redress process.

B. Project Implementation Unit

51. The subproject will be managed and implemented through the PIU based in the Dhaka City Corporation office. The PIU will be responsible for carrying out the detailed design of the subprojects and updating RPs for the sample subprojects and prepare new RPs for future subprojects under the sector approach The PIU will ensure compliance with safeguards requirements of the Government and ADB. The PIU will be responsible for day-to-day monitoring of the project progress, including the implementation of the resettlement provisions in the project.

52. The capacity to implement safeguards planning and implementation at the PIU level is not currently adequate. Therefore, it is proposed that resettlement support staff (or facilitators) at the PIU level will be recruited. The number of resettlement support staff at each PIU will be commensurate to the scale of involuntary resettlement impacts (e.g., the greater the impact, the greater number of support staff needed). All PIU and PMCU safeguards staff will undergo training conducted by the consultant team’s resettlement specialists. Each PIU will prepare monitoring reports on all aspects concerning to resettlement planning and implementation of the land acquisition and resettlement issues and report to the PMCU on a monthly basis.

C. Management, Design and Supervision Consultants

53. The MDSC will hire one International Resettlement Specialist (IRS) and one National Resettlement Specialist (NRS). They will be responsible for updating/finalizing the Resettlement Plans of sample subprojects in accordance with this Resettlement Framework and based on the detailed engineering design. These specialists will also prepare new Resettlement Plans for future subprojects under the sector approach consistent with this Resettlement Framework. This will be done in close coordination with PIU resettlement support staff and PMCU resettlement officers. The IRS and the NRS will assist in the overall supervision of the projects and ensure all plans are implemented in a smooth and timely manner in accordance with the provisions of the Resettlement Plan. They will also prepare and implement training and capacity development programs for resettlement planning for the PIU and PMCU safeguards staff (see section below on Training and Capacity Building), and will closely work with the PMCU and PIUs to ensure

18 displaced persons are compensated before displacement occurs, including ongoing rehabilitation measures. Further details on agencies responsible for Resettlement Plan activities are in Table 11 and the organization chart for Resettlement Plan implementation is depicted in Figure 2.

XI. IMPLEMENTATION SCHEDULE

54. Compensation and relocation of displaced persons cannot commence until the Resettlement Plan has been cleared by ADB. All compensation and relocation activities is to be paid prior to displacement although income rehabilitation measures will continue after construction begins. Written confirmation is required by the PMCU to ADB stating that all compensation has been paid to displaced persons and relocation is accomplished. Only then can construction works begin on sections where compensation has been paid. The project will be implemented over six years (January 2011 to December 2016). The implementation of the Resettlement Plan will include: (i) identification of cut-off date and notification; (ii) verification of losses and extent of impacts; (iii) finalization of entitlements and distribution of identity cards ; (iv) consultations with displaced persons on their needs and priorities; and (v) resettlement, provision of compensation and assistance, and income restoration for displaced persons. The expected implementation schedule for a subproject is given in Table 12.

XII. MONITORING AND REPORTING

55. The extent of monitoring activities will be commensurate with the project’s risks and impacts. Monthly monitoring reports to be submitted by PIU to PMCU. PMCU to consolidate monthly reports into semi-annual monitoring reports to ADB. These reports should form a part of the project progress reports submitted by PMCU to ADB.

56. The objectives of monitoring are to (i) ensure that the standard of living of displaced persons are restored or improved; (ii) ascertain whether activities are progressing as per schedule and the timelines are being met; (iii) assess if compensation, rehabilitation measures are sufficient; (iv) identify problems or potential issues; and (v) identify methods to rapidly to mitigate problems. The above information will be collected by executing and implementing agencies through its PMCU and respective PIU which is responsible for monitoring the day-to- day resettlement activities of the project through the following instruments:

57. Internal Monitoring. The internal monitoring by PMCU/PIU will include (i) administrative monitoring to ensure that implementation is on schedule and problems are dealt with on a timely basis; (ii) socio-economic monitoring during and after the relocation process to ensure that people are settled and recovering. This will utilize the baseline information established by the socio-economic survey of displaced persons undertaken during subproject preparation; and (iii) overall monitoring whether recovery has taken place successfully and on time. Monitoring will also include the following:

58. The indicators for achievement of objectives during Resettlement Plan implementation are of two kinds such as (i) Process Indicators (Indicating project inputs, expenditure, staff deployment, etc.); and (ii) Output Indicators: Indicating results in terms of numbers of displaced persons compensated, area of temporarily occupied lands restored with topsoil (and other pre- project features), number of displaced persons provided with skills training, etc. Input and output indicators related to physical progress of the work will include items such as:

(iv) Compensation payments disbursed. (v) Relocation of displaced persons completed. (vi) Project employment provided to displaced persons. (vii) Infrastructure rehabilitated or constructed. (viii) Income restoration activities initiated. (ix) Skills training of displaced persons initiated. (x) Number of households displaced and resettled.
