The lands acquired in this project are state-owned lands, Figure 5: Pangxie Ditch which will receive effluent from being used by Shangfang Branch Farm of Qianjin Farm in the wastewater treatment plant in Panjin Dawa County. As detailed, the Branch farm has reallocated lands to the directly affected employees. The land acquisition was finished in December, 1999 when land was unused. Land reallocation was completed in March, 2000. The affected employees have signed new land contracts and the production has been rehabilitated.
