Executive Summary

1. Subproject Overview. The Hutubi Subproject is one of the subprojects of Xinjiang Changji Urban-Rural Infrastructure Construction Demonstration Project (hereinafter the “project”), which is financed by Asian Development Bank (ADB). The subproject includes three parts: (i) Road Construction: construction of 3 roads with a length of 7.96 km, including 1 new cover culvert, 15 round pipe culverts, and 7 inverted siphons; (ii)Urban utility pipes: (a) Water Supply Pipes: all of these pipelines will be newly built and the total length will be 1,043 m, among which are 8,028 m of water supply pipes and 2,048 m of crossing reservation pipes, with diameters of dn200 and PE100; (b) wastewater pipes: installation of 10,432 m of wastewater pipes, with a diameter of dn400 and material of HDPE; (c) District Heating Pipes: installation of 9,220 × 2 m hot water pipeline, with a diameter of dn250-500 and material of Q235-B; (d) Gas engineering works: installation of 9,900 m of gas pipelines, with a diameter of dn160, pressure of 0.4 MPa and material of PE; and (iii) capacity building in (a) strengthen technical and vocational education and training at Hutubi County Senior Secondary Technical School; and (b) subproject management of implementing agency and subproject implementation units.

The construction of the new roads will cause the land acquisition and house demolition involved in the subproject, so a resettlement plan for the preparation of the land acquisition and house demolition caused by the subproject is necessary. In addition, parts of the farm land in Changhua Road have been demolished because of the master plan of land use and town construction in Hutubi County, therefore a Due Diligence Report needs to be prepared. The subproject in Hutubi County has been included in the master plan of urban and rural development; it will be implemented in 2017 and finished in December 2021. The land acquisition and house demolition will start in May 2017 and will be finished in December 2020. The implementation agency of the subproject is Hutubi County Government, and subproject implementation unit for the Hutubi road component is the Bureau of Housing and Urban-rural Construction of Hutubi County.

2. Impact Scope. Land acquisition (LA) and house demolition (HD) of the subproject will affect 2 towns (Yuanhucun Town and Ershilidian Town), 2 villages (Hezhuang and Xiatougong Villages) and 1 state-owned farm (Liangzhongchang in Yuanhucun Town), with 149 households with 548 people that will be affected, in which 57 households with 215 persons are ethnic minorities, accounting for 39.23% of the total of affected persons (APs). 46 families with 184 members are affected by HD only, and 96 families with 336 members by LA only, and 7 families with 28 members by both.

A total of 360.61 mu of land will be acquired, permanently affecting 103 households with 364 people (including 7 households with 28 people by both LA and HD), including 13.18 mu of state-owned land and 347.43 mu of collective land. The state-owned land consists of (i) 6.35 mu of cultivated land (nursery land), affecting 3 households with 12 people, including 2 households with 8 ethnic minorities; (ii) 2.75 mu of state-owned residential land, where the affected population is included in the population to be demolished without further calculation; (iii) 4.08 mu of state-owned construction land, all of which are vacant lots, without any attachments and buildings, so without population affected.

In order to make it convenient for farmers’ ploughing, they built the farm road by themselves. According to verification from L&R Bureau and village committee, the ownership of the reserved land belongs to the village; the compensation standard will be in accordance with arable land, that is to say, the land compensation fee and resettlement subsidy will be paid to the village, with no young crops fee, because the farm road belongs to collective reserved land. No individuals are involved, so there is no affected population; (iii) 39.66 mu of collective homestead land; the affected population is included in the population to be demolished without further calculation.

About 18,445.35 m2 of house area will be demolished, affecting 53 households with 212 people iii

However, the resettlement subsidy and young crops fees will be paid to the affected villagers directly.

Compensation for the HD includes (i) monetary compensation: the compensation standards are based on house assessment conducted by a third-party agency but are not lower than the standards listed in this RP, and the compensation will be paid to APs at one time (including transition and moving subsidies); (ii) property right exchange: a third-party agency will evaluate compensation values of demolished houses. The values will be compared with prices of resettlement houses. If the value is lower than the price, APs should pay for the difference for the resettlement houses. However, if the value is higher than the price, the APs will receive a compensation for the difference. APs also receive transition and moving subsidies. APs have priority to select floors and types of the resettlement houses.

4. Resettlement and Restoration Action. Based on social and economic survey and public consultation with APs, the following measures to restore livelihood of APs are prepared, including: (i) using the compensation to do some business, like transportation, or operation of some shops; (ii) participating in social insurance for land-loss farmers to ensure their livelihood level will not be lowered; (iii) local government will assist APs in adjusting agricultural planting structure, provide planting guidance and technical training, expand planting area of cash crops (crops are planted for sale), and develop animal breeding to improve the income; (iv) the PMO will provide temporary unskilled jobs as priority to APs during subproject construction. The PMO will organize technical training for APs, and make sure all affected labor receive at least 2 times of training on farming and non-agricultural work.

5. Organization Structure. The Hutubi subproject IA will be responsible for the subproject implementation, LA and coordination. The LA and HD office will be composed of officials of the urban land administration bureau, construction bureau, and each affected sub-district office or community committee. Each unit will provide one member to the office to be responsible for LA consultation and income restoration activities.

1. Overview 1.1. Introduction

1. The Xinjiang Changji Integrated Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project is designed to improve living conditions in both urban and rural areas in Changji. The intended Hutubi County subproject outcome is increased urban and rural residents' accessibility to quality urban infrastructure services in Hutubi. The subproject will help accomplish this by (i) improving urban services infrastructure; (ii) constructing or rehabilitating urban-rural road infrastructure; (iii) installing technical and vocational skills training facilities; and (iv)developing project management capacity of government agencies and community groups. 2. The process of extending and upgrading infrastructure, however, will require that some people are economically and physically displaced. The purpose of this RP is to ensure that displacement is avoided to the extent possible, and otherwise minimized and mitigated appropriately. 3. Hutubi County is one of the three subprojects of the Xinjiang Changji Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project, which will be financed by Asian Development Bank (ADB). The subproject includes five parts: (i) Road Construction: construction of 3 roads with length of 7.96 km, including 1 new cover culvert, round 15 pipe culverts, and 7 inverted siphons; (ii) Urban utility pipes: (a) Water Supply: all of these pipelines will be newly built and the total length is 1,043 m, among which are 8,028 m of water supply pipes and 2,048 m of crossing reservation pipes, with diameter of dn200 and PE100; (b) Water Drainage: installation of 10,432 m of drainage pipelines, with diameter of dn400 and material of HDPE; (c) District Heating: installation of 2 x 9,220 m of hot water pipelines, with diameter of dn250-500 and material of Q235-B; and (d) Gas engineering works: installation of 9,900 m of gas pipelines, with diameter of dn160, pressure of 0.4 MPa and material of PE. (iii) Capacity building in (a) strengthening technical and vocational education and training at Hutubi County Senior Secondary Technical School; and (b) subproject management of implementing agency and subproject implementation units. 4. The construction of new roads will cause the land acquisition and house demolition involved in the subproject, so a resettlement plan is necessary for the preparation of the land acquisition and house demolition caused by the subproject. In addition, on the basis of the overall development plan and comprehensive land use planning, part of land acquisition work on Changhua Road had been completed already; the ownership of the land belongs to Yuanhucun Town Liangzhongchang. Therefore, a detailed Due diligence report has been prepared for the land that had been acquired; for the details, see in Appendix 5. The loan subproject of Hutubi County has been included in the overall plan of Hutubi County. According to the plan, it will start in 2017 and end in December 2021. The LA is planned to start in May 2017, and end in December 2020.

1.3. Optimizing Project Design to Reduce Resettlement Impacts 9. In the engineering design phase, the Impact of the LAR should be minimum; the main principles are following: ‹ To avoid or minimize the occupation of existing and planned residential areas (rural and urban); ‹ To avoid or minimize the acquisition of high quality arable land; ‹ To use existing state and local roads towards to the proposed construction area; ‹ To avoid or minimize the occupation of environmentally sensitive areas; and ‹ To select the resettlement areas in line with the local development plan. 10. The road route selection should be combined with existing roads to avoid or reduce occupancy of existing building and cultivated land.

11. The original subproject plans to build 4 new roads: Hufang Road, Changhua Road, Dongfeng Avenue and Yangguang Road; the subproject will involve in total 405.41 mu of land and affect 120 households with 422 people, involving 23,172.82 m2 of HD and affecting 61 households with 204 people. After field consultation with the affected village and residents, the PMO and design institute (DI) decided to abandon the Yangguang Road construction, which avoids about 3,727.47 m2 of HD and 44.80 mu of LA affecting 24 households. Details are presented in Table 1-4.

From Table 3-6, because of the effect of the urban-rural integration the income of the APs is not only from farming but also from business and work labor, the business income accounting for 29.07%, work labor accounting for 28.22%, the wage income accounting for 19.47% and the last is the farming income accounting for 11.40%. Only 3.83% of villagers engaged in small-scale livestock rear, just rear a few of livestock for food by themselves, they are not the dedicated breeders.

64. From the whole income we found that the income structure of minorities also show diversification, mainly from business and work labor, and the following are wage and farming. There is no big difference in the whole family income.

65. According to the survey, most of the farmers in subproject area are planting trees, the Nursery growth period is longer and the initial investment is bigger, when it grows up the

28

Xinjiang Changji Integrated Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project Hutubi County Subproject investment is relatively small, during the growing period, the affect families are engaged in other industries such as work labor, private business and so on. Table 3-7 showed the composition of average household expenses of the AHs. The survey shows that the expenses on living accounted for 24.50%, the following are expenses on social relationship and business, at the same time, the expenses of minorities are the same with the whole situation, the main expenses is living expense, and the following are business and investment in agricultural production, the proportion are accounted for27.62%, 12.06%, and 11.56%, respectively.

3.3.2. Gender Difference in Occupation and Income 67. It is shown that the proportions of women dealing with agriculture, business, and industry, short-term labor, working at government agencies or public institutions are slightly lower than those of men. In most farming households they plant nursery, during the growth period, they choose other occupations, and most of them choose the private business such as small restaurant thus led to the employment of women. Besides, the women are not only confined to housework, most of them are doing all kinds of works like men, but mainly in service industry. The women become more and more independent and have more and more influence in family affairs determination and economic income.

68. In order to better identify the income level of the affected male and female laborers, 30 AHs were sampled randomly during the survey. The result showed that the average of annual income of male laborers was CNY33,544.77, while it was CNY21,738.56 for female laborers. It is explained that the number of men work outside, planting, doing business and so on activities are larger than women, while female engaged in agricultural production activities at home more than men.

69. In the annual income interval of below CNY15,000, men’s average income differs slightly from that of women. In the annual income interval of CNY15,000-35,000, men’s average income is much higher than that of women. It is because male laborers mostly deal with business or high-pay jobs and earn more income, while women mostly do housework at home, and have less time and chances to earn more money. In a word, the income of women goes to a trend of improve. 80000 75000 70000 Male Income 65000 60000 Female Income 55000 50000 45000 40000 35000 30000 25000 20000 15000 10000 5000 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30

70. Table 3-9 showed the proportion of women’s income in household total income among 30 sampling households with female labor (doing farm work mainly, and some dealing with services). The average women’s income is accounted for 17.24%-61.33% of total household income, averaging 39.90%. This shows that women’s economic status is improving. Therefore, great attention should be paid to the protection of women’s rights during subproject implementation.

3.3.3. Summary 71. The impact areas of the subproject are mainly in urban-village, since they have little cultivate land or no cultivate land, farmers are not only planting, but also do other works such as work labor, transportation, doing private business, opening small restaurant. More and more women begin to earn income, and have a greater voice on important household matters, such as children’s education and housing purchase. They also assume the responsibility of taking care of children and doing housework. Women would take part in social activities like men do in leisure time in order to maintain family income, their position in family life and agricultural production is also indispensable. Women, as one of the family economic source, have more decision-making power in the family, and the role of men and women tended to be more equal.

72. Except regular housework (e.g., cooking, cleaning, and shopping daily necessities), female residents also do farm work in order to secure household income and maintain livelihoods together with men. 73. According to the survey, women’s concerns about resettlement are essentially the same as those of men, regardless of their occupation: (i) Compensation for houses should be available timely, and the location of resettlement housing and resettlement program should be rational. (ii) Resettlement housing should be located beside roads for the convenience of going to work, doing business and going to school. (iii) The living environment for resettlement housing should be better so that they can adapt to urban life more conveniently. (iv) Jobs generated by the subproject should be provided to women so that they can participate in the subproject positively.

4. Legal Framework and Policies 4.1. Laws, Regulations and Policies Applicable to Resettlement 74. The resettlement policies of the subproject have been developed in accordance with the laws and regulations of the PRC, and ADB’s policies, including: ADB policies: ‹ Safeguard Policy Statement (2009), Safeguard Requirement 2: Involuntary Resettlement ‹ Gender and Resettlement Analysis (2006) Laws and regulations of the PRC ‹ Land Administration Law of the PRC (effective from January 1, 1999, amended on August 28, 2004) ‹ Decision of the State Council on Deepening the Reform and Rigidly Enforcing Land Administration (SC [2004] No.28) (effective from October 21, 2004) ‹ Guidelines on Improving Compensation and Resettlement Systems for Land Acquisition (MLR [2004] No.238) (effective from November 3, 2004) ‹ Property Law of the PRC (Decree No.62 of the PRC, effective from October 1, 2007) ‹ From 21 January 2011 to implement  "The levy and Compensation Ordinance for houses on state-owned land" (Issued by People's Republic of China State Council No. 590, effective from January 21, 2011) ‹ Note of " The levy assessment approach for the houses on state-owned land ", CB[2011] No. 77 Policies of XUAR ‹ Measures of XUAR for the Implementation of the Land Administration Law of the PRC (XUAR People’s Congress [1999] No.913, effective from October 1, 1999) ‹ Notice on the Uniform AAOV Rates for Land Acquisition of XUAR (XPPH [2001] No.500] of the XUAR Development Planning Commission and Department of Finance ‹ Reply on the Uniform AAOV Rates for Land Acquisition of XUAR (XG [2010] No.323) ‹ Notice on the Implementation of the Reply of the XUAR Government on Approving the Uniform AAOV Rates for Land Acquisition (XFR [2011] No.161) ‹ Notice on Implementation of Autonomous Unified Annual Output Value Standard " (new MLR [2011] No. 19) ‹ Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region to implement "state-owned land on the housing levy and Compensation Ordinance " approach (Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region People's Government Order No. 187 ‹ Notice of Amendment "Hutubi County land-loss farmers’ employment training and social insurance implementation approach" (Hutubi Government [2013] No. 59)

4.2. ADB’s Policy Requirements on Involuntary Resettlement 75. The objectives of ADB's Involuntary Resettlement Policy are (i) If possible, involuntary resettlement should be avoided; (ii) If resettlement is unavoidable, all feasible options should be explored and the scope of resettlement should be as small as possible; (iii) Ensure that the displaced persons have the same economic and social conditions before and after the project; and (iv) Improve the living standard of displaced poor and other vulnerable groups.

76. Involuntary resettlement is an important part of the project design and resettlement plans. Planning and implementation should take into account the following basic principles: (1) Screen the project early on to identify past, present, and future involuntary resettlement Impacts and risks. Determine the scope of resettlement planning through a survey and/or census of displaced persons, including a gender analysis, specifically related to resettlement Impacts and risks. (2) Carry out meaningful consultations with affected persons, host communities, and concerned nongovernmental organizations. Inform displaced persons of their entitlements and resettlement options. Ensure their participation in planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of resettlement programs. Pay particular attention to the needs of vulnerable groups. Support the social and cultural institutions of displaced persons and assist the local population in the resettlement area. (3) Improve or at least remain, the livelihoods of all displaced persons through (i) land-based resettlement strategies when affected livelihoods are land based where possible or cash compensation at replacement value for land when the loss of land does not undermine livelihoods, (ii) prompt replacement of assets with access to assets of equal or higher value, (iii) prompt compensation at full replacement cost for assets that cannot be restored, and (iv) additional revenues and services through benefit sharing schemes where possible. (4) Provide physically and economically displaced persons with needed assistance, including the following: (i) if there is relocation, secured tenure to relocation land, better housing at resettlement sites with Comparable access to employment and production opportunities, integration of resettled persons economically and socially into their host communities, and extension of project benefits to host communities; (ii) transitional support and development assistance, such as land development, credit facilities, training, or employment opportunities; and (iii) civic infrastructure and community services, as required. (5) Improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups, including women, to at least national minimum standards. In rural areas provide them with legal and affordable access to land and resources, and in urban areas provide them

34

Xinjiang Changji Integrated Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project Hutubi County Subproject

with appropriate income sources and legal and affordable access to adequate housing. (6) Develop procedures in a transparent, consistent, and equitable manner if land acquisition is through negotiated settlement to ensure that those people who enter into negotiated settlements will maintain the same or better income and livelihood status. (7) Ensure that displaced persons without titles to land or any recognizable legal rights to land are eligible for resettlement assistance and compensation for loss of non-land assets. (8) Prepare a resettlement plan elaborating on displaced persons’ entitlements, the income and livelihood restoration strategy, institutional arrangements, monitoring and reporting framework, budget, and time-bound implementation schedule. (9) Disclose a draft resettlement plan, including documentation of the consultation process in a timely manner, before project appraisal, in an accessible place and a form and language(s) understandable to affected persons and other stakeholders. Disclose the final resettlement plan and its updates to affected persons and other stakeholders. (10) Conceive and execute involuntary resettlement as part of a development project or program. Include the full costs of resettlement in the presentation of the project’s costs and benefits. For a project with significant involuntary resettlement Impacts, consider implementing the involuntary resettlement component of the project as a stand-alone operation. (11) Pay compensation and provide other resettlement entitlements before physical or economic relocation. Implement the resettlement plan under close supervision throughout project implementation. (12) Monitor and assess resettlement outcomes, their Impacts on the standards of living of displaced persons, and whether the objectives of the resettlement plan have been achieved by taking into account the baseline conditions and the results of resettlement monitoring. Disclose monitoring reports.

4.3. Differences between ADB and PRC Policies 77. Generally speaking, there are many similarities between the ADB’s involuntary resettlement policies and the PRC’s LAR policies, which include: ‹ Both of them address importance to avoid or reduce resettlement Impacts during the planning and design stage of a project; ‹ Both of them address importance of the restoration and improvement of the livelihood of APs; ‹ Both of them address importance of the openness and transparency of the resettlement policies; ‹ Both of them address importance of the participation and awareness of the public during resettlement; 35

Xinjiang Changji Integrated Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project Hutubi County Subproject

‹ Both of them require that the formulation and implementation of the resettlement compensation standard must be in accordance with relevant national laws, regulations and policies.

78. However, there are still some differences in some aspects between ABD’s involuntary resettlement policies and the PRC’s LAR policies, which include: ‹ ADB addresses more importance of the planning prior to the implementation of resettlement, and it requires that a feasible RP to be prepared in accordance with ADB’s involuntary resettlement policies; ‹ The ADB’s resettlement policies ensure that displaced persons without titles to land or any recognizable legal rights to land are eligible for resettlement assistance and compensation for loss of non-land assets at replacement costs. However, the LAR policies of the PRC provide a different compensation policy to unlicensed structures; ‹ ADB has specific and clear requirements on public participation and public opinion polls surveys, such as consultation and information on compensation standards must be published; ‹ ADB policy requires that the compensation should be sufficient to any losses and restore long-term revenue potential. Chinese standards are based on the average annual output value. ‹ ADB addresses more importance of the special care extended to the vulnerable people during resettlement; and ‹ ADB addresses more importance of monitoring and evaluation during and after resettlement implementation.

79. Based on the above analysis, during preparation for the LAR, this project have taken full account of the relevant policies of ADB and the following measures: ‹ The preparation of the project and RP must be based on concrete social economic survey, physical Impact survey, detail social analysis; ‹ Special cares must be given to vulnerable people including poor, women, during preparation and implementation of the LAR; ‹ Make compensation at replacement value to buildings without titles to land constructed before the cut-off date; ‹ After compensation to the AP(s) for land loss, the further technical training, public employment, job support should be provided to APs to restore their sustainable livelihoods; ‹ Publish the RP and resettlement information booklet (RIB) in accordance with requirements of ADB; and ‹ Establish internal and external monitoring systems for the LAR and conduct monitoring

36

Xinjiang Changji Integrated Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project Hutubi County Subproject

and evaluation during and after implementation of the RP.

80. With the above measures, the ADB’s resettlement policies and the PRC’s LAR policy gaps will be bridged and the smooth implementation of the LAR will be guaranteed.

4.4. Eligibility and Beneficiaries 81. The cut-off date for eligibility for the compensation is the time when the Project is officially announced it to the affected villages. Announcement can be through distribution of resettlement information booklet or posting notices in the village community boards. It is expected that the public announcement will be carried out on or before 15 February 2017. 82. Any newly claimed land, newly built houses or settlement in the subproject area , the APs after this date will not be entitled to get the compensation or subsidization.

4.5. Compensation Rates

4.5.1. Compensation Rates for State-owned Land 83.

It is generally 8 times for land compensation. 86. According to the survey, the land acquisition compensation standard of XUAR is based on the Unified Annual Output Value, land location factors, social economic conditions, and the income of the farmers, to promise that the living condition of the farmers will not be decreased because of the LA, and guarantee their long term livelihood: the LA compensation Unified Annual Output Value base is : class 1 cultivate land 1200 yuan/mu, class 2 600 yuan/mu, class 3 400 yuan/mu, because of the development and the update of the crops and the improvement of planting, the LA compensation Unified Annual Output Value has been improved by the XUAR government in 2010 (Table 4-2). The Unified Annual Output Value is based on the annual output and market price of the main crops under the main cropping system, Annual Output Value = Average annual crop yield × the price of the crops, therefore it is also the land benefit value. Through the survey, Unified Annual Output Value of Hutubi county is 1000 yuan/mu, but in accordance with the benefits of the farmers and according to the document of Agreement on approving the annual output value of the land requisition of XUAR (New Deal Letter No. [2010]323), the annual output value base is compensated as 1500 yuan/mu; the

38

Xinjiang Changji Integrated Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project Hutubi County Subproject cultivate land compensation is 37500 yuan/mu (excluded the young crops compensation), it is about 25 times of the income of the annual output value. The total period of second round of land contract is 30 years, which started from 1998 and to end in 2028, so there is only 12 years to reach their expiration date, according to the survey , the annual production value of the crops is 1000yuan/mu, so the total production value for 12 years will be 12000yuan/mu, while the compensation rate is 1500yuan/mu×25times=37500yuan/mu, by comparing with the remaining 12years’ land annual production value, the compensation standard is much higher. Not matter the collective cultivate land or state-owned cultivate land they all meet the document of Agreement on approving the annual output value of the land requisition of XUAR (New Deal Letter No. [2010]323) and the Implementation of Autonomous Public Notice on Unified Annual Output Value Standard (XL&R issued [2011] No.19)

Xinjiang Changji Integrated Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project Hutubi County Subproject

106. At present, there are 2 production teams with 256 HHs with 845 people, and 5 kinds of minority groups as Hui, Han, Dongxiang, Kazak, Uygur, the minority population accounting for 60% of the total population in the farm. With a total area of 1,500 mu, at present there are 960 mu cultivate land around the farm and other 5,000 mu in Aweitan4, all these land have been contracted to the workers in the farm (8.5 mu/person). The farm mainly plants wheat, corn and hops, and known as the largest hop planting base for it has planting hops for 40 years. The annual per capita net income is CNY17200 in 2015. It has 7 village cadres; the wages of the village cadres are paid by the county fiscal about CNY98000 every year. There are 26 Party members in the farm. At present, there are 208 employees to participate in social security including 115 state-owned employees (95 male and 20 female) and 93 non-state-owned employees (23 male and 70 female), and there are 120 people that enjoy social security retirement policy.

107. Due to the enterprise aims to manage Yuanhucun Town Liangzhongchang farm lands , the income from the contracted lands belongs to the employee (APs) who are responsible for planting during the period of employment, and Liangzhongchang farm will not need to pay the wage/salary to farmers, however, the social insurance of the employees will be fully paid by the farm. In addition, the employee will not have the right to continue their lands contract once they reach the retiring age, the contracted land will be allocated to others. The retirement pension issued by country government is in accordance with the standard of the basic endowment insurance system.

108. This subproject will acquire 6.35 mu of Liangzhongchang state-owned cultivate land permanently (total land for 5,960 mu), accounting for 0.1% of the total arable land (5,960 mu) of the farm. The land compensation will be paid to the farm management committee directly, and resettlement subsidy and young crops subsidy for the land acquisition will be paid to the farmers. Given the influence to the affected employees, some restoration measures are considered, there are 5,000 mu of newly cultivated land in Aweitan, it is enough to allocate the lands to the affected employees, and committee management/local government will distribute the land to the affected employees for priority based on the land-loss amount of the affected employees. The types of planting crops will be determined by the affected farmers, and the income is similar or even more than their before. In order to enhance the planting skill of the employees, committee management/local government will also provide training program to employees every year.

109. According to the survey on 3 affected employees, all affected workers support the subproject. The land they plant belongs to Liangzhongchang, and not to the workers. However,

4 It is located in Shitizi Town of Hutubi County, about 24 km away from Hutubi. 50

Xinjiang Changji Integrated Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project Hutubi County Subproject they know Liangzhongchang has newly cultivated cultivate land, even though they will lose the land, they will get other land from Liangzhongchang. Therefore, the land acquisition will affect little to them. However, they hope that the construction schedule will be noticed with six months in advance. If the construction starts in the crop growing season, reasonable compensation for crop loss should be paid to them. So the construction is better to be mobilized after crop harvest period. They also hope after land acquisition, some planting technology training and instruction shall be provided, so that they can obtain bigger benefit from arable land. Part affected workers think based facilities of construction, sanitation and city environment can be improved, and also will lead to economic development for Hutubi County, also will increased employment opportunities, while the subproject implementation period, they hope they have opportunity to participate in the subproject.

110. According to the consultation with affected workers, resettlement measures are prepared to support affected workers’ improvement of livelihood and income, including: (i) Temporary employment: affected workers will be employed priority in the subproject during the subproject construction; (ii) Improvement of agricultural production structures: training on planting and poultry raising technique will be provided by relevant government departments, increasing cultivated cultivate land of economic crop planting, and developing household poultry raising; and (iii) Technical training: training on economic crop planting, pouty raining, non-agriculture skills will be provided to affected households at least one time per household. By taking all those measures to improve the income of the affected, to make sure the normal livelihood of the affected could be restored.

5.5. Summary of Restoration Program for Acquisition of Cultivated Land 111. The land acquisition of the subproject for the road construction is linear, most of the affected people only loss a little part of their land; therefore, the land acquisition has few Impact on their production. Table 2-3 and Table 2-4 indicates that among the 100 affected households, the minimum land loss rate is 0.75% and the maximum is 38.75% and the total landloss rate is 12.04%. According to the present average annual output value and the acquired land area we v g p - f v could get the annual loss, net income formula for planting crops: i = i × i i ( i net g p f income/mu i per mu yield i market price i the total investment of the crops); for example if the farmer planting corns, through the survey ,the yield output is 900 kg/mu. The market price is1.75 yuan/kg, the total planting investment is 575 yuan/mu, therefore the net income is ((900kgÕ1.75yuan/kg) -575yuan/mu) =1000yuan/mu; The ratio of the land compensation to income loss is 38.33 times; if not included the land compensation, then the loss will be 30.33 times. 51

112. According to the survey to 100 households affected people, the cash compensation is what they want and they also required that the compensation should be paid on time. And the compensation will be used in business, planting or skill training and so on.

113. In order to improve or restore their original production, living and income levels as soon as possible, in addition to pay the land compensation to the AHs, the PMO also developed a restoration plan on the basis of full consultation for the APs and in accordance with the status of the AHs:

(1) APs will engage in non-agricultural activities via the cash compensation. 114. With the improvement of urban functions and the increase of urban scale, Hutubi County's commercial and service industry has also been fast developed, and more and more people have engaged in these sectors. So the AHs can use cash compensation for commercial and service industry investment. For example: with the increase of urban area, and the improvement of road conditions, the demand for taxi is continually increased, and the affected villagers can use the compensation money to buy a car as taxi. They can also improve the income by renting the commercial houses with the cash compensation or engage in commercial activities, such as running a department store, or running a restaurant. 115. A total of 197.35 mu of rural collective land will be acquired permanently, affect 100 households, average household LA is 1.97mu, according to the compensation unit price of 37500yuan/mu, a total of 73875 yuan per household can be received. It is surveyed that net income of the land is 1000yuan/mu per year, the land compensation is 37.5times of the land annual net income. With the compensation, APs can have opportunities to invest those activities listed in table 5-2, and the will have long-term income generation. The details see table5-2.

5.7. Training 148. In addition to cash compensation to the APs, the subproject might consider offering technical assistance to affected people and village governments to educate them about maximizing compensation payments though long-term investment strategies. It will also combine with the vocational education program of Hutubi, and formulate the special training program, mainly to provide skills training opportunities for the farmers who are affected by land acquisition and house demolition. In order to follow out the spirit of document on implementing the new concept of development of comprehensive well-off society goal of speeding up agricultural

68

Xinjiang Changji Integrated Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project Hutubi County Subproject modernization opinions from State Council. To strengthen and expand new subjects of agricultural management oriented, and rely on primary industries, insisted on the requirement of invigorate agriculture by relying on science and education, attract more talents to strengthen the Chinese agriculture field. To provide strong support for modern agriculture, a professional farmer team needs to be established, and combine the local industry and rural characteristics to carry out free training program. According to different training types, government subsidies will be provided, the standard is CNY250—3,000/person. In this subproject there are 550 person-times will be trained in total, and at least two person-times of each AH will be trained. 30% of person-times of training will be provided to women.

With the improvement of urban functions and the increase of urban scale, Hutubi County's commercial and service industry has also been fast developed, and more and more people have engaged in these sectors. So the AHs can use cash compensation for commercial and service industry investment. (i) For example: with the increase of urban area, and the improvement of road conditions, the demand for taxi is continually increased, and the affected villagers can use the compensation money to buy a car as taxi. They can also improve the income by renting the commercial houses with the cash compensation or engage in commercial activities, such as running a department store, or running a restaurant. (ii) To adjust agricultural structure, guided by government departments, and conduct training on planting and skill training, secondly, with the guidance of government, produce the high efficient crops to plant, after LA, the affected farmers could use the land compensation to expand economic crop planting acreage, to enhance the income. (iii)To the affected farmers, especially the ethnic minority households, the government functional department have the priority to rent shops for these households in Hutubi County nursery market, reduce their rent to help them restore their family income; the ethnic minorities are good at catering; they can rent a house and open a restaurant. (iv) provide training on economic crop planting, pouty raining, non-agriculture skills will be provided to affected households at least one time per household. By taking all those measures to improve the income of the affected, to make sure the normal livelihood of the affected could be restored

6. Public Participation and Grievance Redress

154. According to relevant policies and regulations of the PRC, regional and municipal on LAR, it is very necessary to conduct public consultation and encourage active participation of APs in subproject preparation and implementation stages in order to protect the lawful rights and interests of the APs, reduce grievances and disputes, and realize the resettlement objectives properly. Consultation has been fully highlighted during preparing RP, and organizing implementation.

6.1. Consultation at Preparation Stage

6.1.1. Completed Public Participation Activities 155. As to all significant topics for discussion involved in the planning stage of resettlement, the PMO has organized meetings and discussions of design institute (DI), consultant agency, local communities and APs to disclose information and conduct public consultation in various ways from June 2016 to August 2016, including: (i) Design optimization discussion in order to minimize land acquisition and resettlement Impacts; (ii) Impact survey based on the FSR to get detailed information on population, houses, land, special facilities, APs, shops and enterprises in the subproject area; (iii) Consultation with managers of affected villages, to get the socio-economic background of them and discuss the LA options and the compensation standards with the villagers; and Opinion survey on Aps. (iv) The PMO organized meetings that were attended by a representative sample of affected stakeholders, including women, elderly people and children. (v) The PMO and RP preparation agency will make a detailed discussion with the affected representatives on the draft RP and information disclosure.

156. The public participation and consultation provided a basis for the improvement of the RP. During consultation, Uygur or Kazak language translator is arranged for the ethnic groups who cannot speak Han language.

157. These meetings and surveys played an important role in developing rational compensation rates, restoration programs and training programs. It has been found that the AHs’ main concerns are: (i) Since the LA area is not large, the LA will have little Impact of their income condition. They only concern whether the compensation can be paid timely and whether crop cultivation training and livestock breeding technical training can be conducted. (ii) During the survey and consulting, affected people were asked if they would prefer getting

73

Xinjiang Changji Integrated Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project Hutubi County Subproject

access to additional farming land instead of cash compensation for their loss, but voted in favor of cash compensation. As for house demolition, the APs’ first concern was the compensation standards, then was the resettlement sites, and finally was life issues during the transition period. (iii) For the removal from the demolished cottage to the building are acceptable, that is regarded as an opportunity to improve their living conditions. (iv) Women believe that after relocated to the building, the heating problem in winter has been resolved, which can reduce the pressure on women's labor and the heating costs. (v) Due to the construction of the road, inconvenience to daily travel would be problems, the construction process may cause noise, dust, construction waste; and have to take measures to deal with or mitigate pollutions. (vi) The road construction period and dates should be published promptly to inform the residents living nearby, let them know the inconvenience in advance.

158. Based on the above discussions, the PMO: (i) Has developed land acquisition compensation standards, and will inform to the APs in advance. After the agreement is signed, the land compensation will be paid timely. (ii) Discussed with Hutubi County People's Government about APs most concerned issues, such as the resettlement work, and discussed with the labor and social security bureau about the relevant training issues for AHs. (iii) Discussed a satisfied resettlement plan for the APs with Hutubi house demolition department and resettlement house construction units. On the one hand, the house demolition department will further explain the policies on house demolition and compensation standards to the affected households, on the other hand, resettlement house construction units should regularly announce the resettlement house construction situation to the affected households. Life issues during the transition period for affected households concern, resettlement housing construction is urged to be completed as soon as possible, and transition costs should be given to the affected families, to give some help for vulnerable groups to ensure they can go smoothly with the transition period. Some important issues during the subproject preparation consultation/meeting are listed in Table 6-1.

6.3. Grievance Redress Mechanism

163. Since public participation is encouraged during the preparation, updating, and implementation of the RP, no substantial disputes are anticipated. However, unforeseeable circumstances may arise during this process. In order to address issues effectively, and ensure the successful implementation of subproject construction and land acquisition, a transparent, accessible and effective grievance redress mechanism has been established. The system has shown in figure 6-1. The basic grievance redress system is as follows: Stage 1: If any AP is dissatisfied with any land acquisition and resettlement of any other safeguards related problems, he/she may file an oral or written appeal with the community committee/sub-district office orally or in writing. In case of an oral appeal, the community committee/sub-district office shall handle such appeal and keep written records. Such appeal should be solved within 2 weeks. Stage 2: If the AP is dissatisfied with the disposition of Stage 1, he/she may file an appeal with Hutubi County Land and Resources Bureau or the LA and HD management office (depending upon the issue) after receiving such disposition, which shall make a disposition within 2 weeks. Stage 3: If the AP is still dissatisfied with the disposition of Stage 2, he/she may file an appeal with Hutubi County PMO receiving such disposition, which shall make a disposition within 2 weeks. Stage 4: If the AP is still dissatisfied with the disposition of Stage 3, he/she may apply for administrative reconsideration with Hutubi County Government after receiving such disposition within 3 months. Alternatively, he/she may file an action in a civil court in accordance with the

78

Xinjiang Changji Integrated Urban-Rural Infrastructure Demonstration Project Hutubi County Subproject

Civil Procedure Law of the PRC at any time irrespective of the use and progress of the GRM process. 164. At each stage, when the responsible agencies receive the appeal, it will be also copied to the PMO for discussion, so that the grievance can be redressed at lower levels. All grievances (and their resolution) at each stage will be recorded and kept. The PMO will report the grievances and their resolution) to ADB in semiannual monitoring reports. If the affected people are still not satisfied with the results above, they may submit their complaint to ADB's Accountability Mechanism (2012).6 The first step requires good faith efforts to resolve the problem with the ADB Project Team. Besides, reporting behaviors which are against ADB's policies or procedures also welcomed. Website is:www.adb.org/Accountability-Mechanism/. APs may file an appeal on any aspect of resettlement, including compensation rates, etc. The above means of appeal, and the names, locations, persons responsible and telephone numbers of the appeal accepting agencies will be communicated to the APs at a meeting, through an announcement or the RIB, so that the APs know their right of appeal. Mass media will be used to strengthen publicity and reportage, and comments and suggestions on resettlement from all parties concerned will be compiled into messages for disposition by the resettlement organization at all levels. 165. Through social survey, the similar levels of educational attainment found between women and men in the subproject area, as well as the similar distributions of income-generating occupations (see Section 3.3), as well as the relative social equality of women and men in the subproject area and the presence of women at the committee/sub-district office. There are no significant barriers to women’s access of the GRM. 166. All agencies will accept grievances and appeals from the APs for free, and costs so reasonably incurred will be disbursed from the contingency costs. During the whole construction period of the Subproject, these appeal procedures will remain effective to ensure that the APs can use them to address relevant issues.

Through the survey we found that the annual income of male labor force is CNY35,150, and the female labor force is CNY27,759.09. The reason why male’s income is higher than female is that the number of male working in planting and outside work is larger than female; most of the females are working in the home or do some temporary works.

14.The annual income lower than CNY20,000, the male and female are has a slight difference; the annual income between CNY20,000 and 55,000, the male is obvious high than female. It is because most of the male do some high paid jobs like outside working; while the female, most of them are doing housework at home or take care of child and old people, they have little time to work outside, so their income are lower than male. But generally speaking, the income of female has increased. 60000
