Statement of Updated Resettlement Action Plan

In October 2019, in order to plan and build a good Linshui Vocational Middle School, the organization of the World Bank Project Office of the proposed to adjust the original red line of the original Vocation Middle School plan, and the content of the adjustment was moved to the north side of the whole site and canceled the original planned road on the north side. The main reasons for the change in project location are as follows:

1) The new scheme preserves the original ecological mountain on the north side of the Shiba River, ensuring the continuity of the planned green belt on the south side of the job.

2) The new program reduces the number of land acquisitions and the number of affected households. The original planned land acquisition area is 70 mu, and the new plan land acquisition and using area is 66.53 mu including new land acquisition area 14.52mu and using 52.01mu land which had been acquired. The new plan land acquisition aear is reduced by 3.47 mu than the original plan. The original planned land acquisition affected 134 households with 406 persons, and the updated plan land acquisition will affect 66 households with 225 persons (including new land acquisition affected 37 households and 129 persons; already land acquisition affected 29 households and 96 persons). The updated plan has reduced the land acquisition impact of 68 households with 181 people. Please refer appendix I for the due diligence report for resettlement of the already land acquisition.

3) The new plan will greatly reduce the number of affected households and the number of demolition area. Since the adjustment of the newly acquired land area without house demolition, the adjusted households with the original resettlement plan reduced the number of from 62 households 187 persons to 24 households with 87 persons, and reduced the number of demolished 38 households with 100 persons. The demolition area has a reduction of 22,900 m2 of the original resettlement plan to 4,492 m2. A total of 18,408 m2 of demolition area was reduced in the updated plan.

4) The new scheme reduced the amount of earthwork excavation by about 268,200 m3.

Due to changes in the location of the project and the impact of land acquisition and demolition, the original resettlement action plan needs to be updated according to the relevant policies of the World Bank.

1 Project Overview

1.1 Background Qianfeng District of Guang’an City is adjacent to the Mountain in the east, Huaying City in the south, and the Qu River in the west. It is the youngest district-level administrative unit of Sichuan Province and holds 1 sub-district, 7 towns, and 5 townships. In 2012, Qianfeng had registered people of 364,000, permanent people of 250,000, and urban people of 64,000, with the urbanization rate reaching 25.6%. Linshui County, located in the east part of the Sichuan Basin and the eastern foot of the Huaying Mountain, is subordinated to Guang’an City. Among all the counties of Sichuan Province, Linshui has the shortest distance from the main urban area and theLiangjiang New Area, of Chongqing. Linshui has jurisdiction over 18 towns and 27 townships, with the people reaching 970,000, and territory area reaching 1,919.22km2. The built-up county urban area of Linshui reaches 14.28km2, with permanent people of 150,000. It is clearly presented in the “Eleventh Five-year Plan” of that the Sichuan- Chongqing area will be developed as the new growth pole of China and both the two cities of Chongqing and are recognized as the “pilot area for comprehensive reform in the national urban-rural overall development”. With the advantages in both policy and urban operation, the rise of a new (the fourth) economic growth pole can be expected. The Chongqing-Guang’an- Development Belt (“CGDDB”) is one of the five development belts of the Chengdu-Chongqing Economic Zone (“CCEZ”). Guang’an, as an important part of the CCEZ, is closely adjacent to the central development area of Chongqing and falls in the one-hour economic circle of the same. As on important node on the CGDDB, Guang’an will definitely get more opportunities from the reform, openness and economic development of Chongqing. However, the obviously backward urban infrastructure has turned out a severe barrier in the way of the economic and social development of Guang’an. Therefore, following requirements of the National Development and Reform Commission (“NDRC”) and the Ministry of Finance of China, Guang’an has made great efforts to use the loan from the World Bank to start infrastructure construction in the Sichuan-Chongqing Cooperation Exemplary Zone for the purpose of facilitating the development of Qianfeng District and Linshui County and providing sufficient infrastructure services. The total investment on the intermediate adjustment projects for infrastructure construction of the Sichuan-Chongqing Cooperation (Guang’an) Exemplary Zone reaches CNY 512 million, including CNY 144 million for the Qianfeng Subproject and CNY 368 million for the Linshui Subproject. 1.2 Project Introduction The intermediate adjustment projects this time are located in Qianfeng District and Linshui County. Qianfeng Subproject includes the comprehensive renovation of the Xiejiawan Park and the Logistics Park section of the Luxi River; Linshui Subproject includes the middle school works, the trunk road overhauling, and phase I and II of the rain-sewage diversion project, of the Economic Development Zone (“EDZ”). Preliminary investigation shows that the land occupied by the Qianfeng Subproject is state-owned land , for the part of the land use, the “Qianfeng District Project Resettlement Due Diligence Report” has been prepared according to the World Bank Safeguard Policy OP4.12. The land use situation is detailed in Appendix II. and details are shown in Appendix I. As for the Linshui Subproject, only the middle school item involves in land acquisition (“LA”) (70mu of collectively-owned land) and house

1

demolition (“HD”) (62 folk houses). Therefore, this original Resettlement Action Plan (“RAP”) is made mainly on the middle school item in the Economic Development Zone (“EDZ”) of Linshui County. In October 2019, in order to plan and build a good Linshui Vocational Middle School, the organization of the World Bank Project Office of the Linshui County proposed to adjust the original red line of the original Vocation Middle School plan, and the content of the adjustment was moved to the north side of the whole site and canceled the original planned road on the north side. The main reasons for the change in project location are as follows: 1) The new scheme preserves the original ecological mountain on the north side of the Shiba River, ensuring the continuity of the planned green belt on the south side of the job. 2) The new program reduces the number of land acquisitions and the number of affected households. The original planned land acquisition area is 70 mu, and the new land acquisition area is 66.53 mu including new land acquisition area 14.52mu and using 52.01mu land which had been acquired, which is reduced by 3.47 mu. The original planned land acquisition affected 134 households with 406 persons, and the updated plan land acquisition will affect 66 households with 225 persons (including new land acquisition affected 37 households and 129 persons; already land acquisition affected 29 households and 96 persons). The updated plan has reduced the land acquisition impact of 68 households with 181 people. Please refer appendix I for the due diligence report for resettlement of the already land acquisition. 3) The new plan will greatly reduce the number of affected households and the number of demolition area. Since the adjustment of the newly acquired land area without house demolition, the adjusted households with the original resettlement plan reduced the number of from 62 households 187 persons to 24 households with 87 persons, and reduced the number of demolished 38 households with 100 persons. The demolition area has a reduction of 22,900 square meters of the original resettlement plan to 4,492 square meters. A total of 18,408 square meters of demolition area was reduced in the updated plan. 4) The new scheme reduced the amount of earthwork excavation by about 268,200 cubic meters. Due to changes in the location of the project and the impact of land acquisition and demolition, the original resettlement action plan needs to be updated according to the relevant policies of the World Bank. See table 1-1 and figure 1-1,1-2 and 1-3 for the detail changes information of the updated RAP.
