Objectives of Resettlement Plan and Definition of Resettlement Vocabulary This Resettlement Plan (RP) is developed according to the Laws and Regulations of PRC and Hunan Province, as well as the resettlement policy of ADB. The purpose of this document is to set out a policy framework and an action plan for the Resettlement and Rehabilitation of the Project Affected Persons (PAPs) to ensure that they will benefit from the project and their standards of living will improve or at least be restored after the project impact. This RP is a legally binding agreement between the Executing Agency (EA) – Key Project Office under Hunan Provincial Water Resources Department (HPWRD) and both the ADB and the local government offices involved with resettlement implementation, whereby HPWRD will be responsible to ensure the action plans are adequately financed and will coordinate relevant cities and counties to implement resettlement in accordance with the resettlement plan approved by ADB. The Resettlement Plan compiled by Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources will be formally approved by the Hunan Province Water Resources Department representing the Hunan Province People’ s Government. Acquisition of land and other assets for the project will adversely affect the livelihood of persons who live, work or earn their living on the land that will be acquired for the project. PAPs are defined as those persons whose income or livelihoods will be adversely affected by land acquisition for the project. PAPs include the following categories: a) Persons who have a title, right, interest, in structures (houses, enterprises, shelters, or public buildings), land (including housing plot, agricultural, and grazing land) or any other asset acquired or possessed, in full or in part, permanently or temporarily; b) Persons who use the structures, land or assets described above; or persons whose business, occupation, work, place of residence or habitat adversely affected; or c) Persons whose standard of living is adversely affected as a consequence of land acquisition and/or resettlement activities. A definition of PAPs is given below: Definition of the PAPs: “Affected Persons” means persons who on account of the execution of the project had or would have their: a) standard of living adversely affected; or b) right, title or interest in any house, land (including housing plot, agricultural and grazing land) or any other fixed or movable asset acquired or possessed, temporarily or permanently; or c) business, occupation, work or place of residence or habitat adversely affected, and “Affected Person” means individually all those who qualify as “Affected Persons.” PAPs may be individuals or legal entities such as a company, a public institution.

1 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

Definition of PAPs is not limited or restricted to their legal registration or permission to live or conduct business in the affected location, or their titles to property. Thus it includes: a) All those affected by the project regardless of their legal rights or absence thereof to the assets being taken; and b) Persons without residential permit to live in a certain area. Therefore all such persons who are affected will need to considered and recorded as PAPs, regardless of their legal status regarding assets, land or location. All PAPs are entitled to the improvement or at least restoration of their standards of living, and compensation for the material losses they suffer. Compensation for assets will cover replacement cost. No deductions or discounts will be applied to the compensation amount for depreciation or other reasons. All PAPs deriving an economic benefit from the affected land and property are entitled to receive rehabilitation benefits in addition to the compensation for their assets lost. Those PAPs without title, authorization or legal permission to reside, conduct business, cultivate land or construct structures are eligible for rehabilitation of their livelihoods and compensation for their assets in a fair manner compared with those with formal legal title, authorization or permission to the assets. The term Resettlement includes: 1) The relocation of living quarters; 2) Finding acceptable new employment for those whose jobs are lost or severely affected; 3) Restoration (or compensation) of affected productive resources such as land, workplaces, trees and infrastructure; 4) Restoration of other adverse effects on PAPs’ living standards (quality of life) through land acquisition, indirect resettlement impacts or other project impacts; 5) Restoration of or compensation for affected private and public enterprises; 6) Restoration of adversely affected on cultural or common property. Rehabilitation means: the restoration of the PAPs’ resource capacity to continue with productive activities or lifestyles at a level higher or at least equal to that without the project. The objective of this RP is to provide a plan for the resettlement and rehabilitation of the PAPs so that their losses will be compensated and their standards of living will be improved or at least restored to the pre-project levels in a sustainable manner. Affected productive resources of businesses, enterprises (including shops) and public facilities and infrastructures will also be improved or at least restored to their pre-project levels.

Summary of Resettlement Plan for Huaihua Urban Flood Protection Subproject A. Introduction 1. The proposed Huaihua Urban Flood Control Subproject will finance the construction of following contents: construction of 13.385km new earth embankment; construction of 9.64km new anti-flood wall; mortar rubble slope protection 13.385km; sodding protection for the 23.025km back and front slopes of embankments of flood-control circle; 13.715km embankment foundation horizontal anti-seepage treatment; construction of 10 new sluices construction of 4 new flood-relieving canals, 5.44km each; construction of 4 new electrical drainage station, with 7 machines totaling installed capacity of 395kw; embankment pavement hardening for 23.025km; riverway in urban area dredging and renovation works. Resettlement Plan covers all the above parts, and the resettlement and land acquisition are mainly depicted in the beginning two parts. All project impacts and resettlement measures have been surveyed in details. All indices, resettlement mode, and compensation standard will be submitted to the local people’s government in project area for examination and approval. 2. The project executing agency for the Hunan Flood Management Project is the Provincial Project Management Office (PPMO) of Hunan Provincial Water Resources Department (HPWRD). A draft resettlement plan (RP) has been prepared by HPWRD under the assistance from the TA consultants. This is based on detailed survey of resettlement impacts and extensive consultation among affected people and local governments. B. Scope of Land Acquisition and Resettlement

3. The proposed Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Subproject will affect 4 sub-districts, 12 administrative villages, 65 village groups, and 8 enterprises and institutions in Hecheng . According to the detailed impact survey, about 27.33 ha of land will be acquired, of which about 55.17% is farmland, including paddy(33.1%), dry farmland (9.29%), and vegetable land (12.78%). The remaining 44.83% is garden, water pond, forest land, housing plot, wasteland, and state-owned land. Additionally, a further 17.99 ha (approx.) of land will be occupied temporarily during the construction phase. Based on per capita farmland in affected villages, the farmland acquisition will affect 558 households and 1,981 persons. There will be 483 persons need to be resettled. On average, each affected person would lose only 0.0017 ha of farmland, which represents 4.87% loss of their current farmland. 4. Along with land acquisition, a total of 26,712.4 m2 of buildings would be demolished. The demolition of residential houses would affect 139 households and 483 persons would have to be resettled. About 97.37% of the houses are made of brick and concrete, or brick and wood. The remaining

3 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

2.63% are made of wood, or simple structures. The relocation will provide an opportunity to improve upon the current housing condition of the relocated people. For affected rural households, they will be moved a short distance to another site within their original village. 5. Other affected assets include telecommunications and electrical infrastructure, ponds for fish and lotus cultivation, sunny grounds, walls, wells, graves and cash crop orchards. All lands, housing and other assets will be compensated at replacement value. C. Policy Framework and Entitlements 6. For people unavoidably affected, the resettlement objective is to achieve equal or better income and living standards in line with the PRC Land Administration Law (1998) and the ADB’s Policy on Involuntary Resettlement. The HPWRD will ensure that any people losing land, housing, other assets or income source will be assisted to fully restore their income and living standards. In 2000, the Hunan Provincial Government issued a Land Administration Decree to implement the Land Administration Law (1998), which stipulates the regulations for land compensation, resettlement subsidies, young crop compensation, house compensation and other measures to carry out resettlement. According to the policy, the total compensation (land compensation, resettlement subsidy and young crop) will be set at CNY 17,791 per mu for irrigated farmland; CNY 11,245 per mu for dry farmland, CNY 24,791 per mu for vegetable land, CNY 17281 per mu for water pond, CNY 15,878 per mu for economic forest, CNY 8,283 per mu for timber forest land, CNY 13,738 per mu for housing plot, and CNY 1,530 per mu for waste land. Those people losing land temporarily during construction will receive a payment equivalent to production value foregone for the period of loss, which is expected to be 2 years. The land used temporarily will be restored by the contractor to the original condition, or else additional funds will be provided to the owner to restore the land. For structures to be demolished, replacement value will be provided to the affected households based on compensation rates adopted in the affected Cities, of which the baseline is CNY434 per square meter for brick concrete structure in town, and CNY 308 per square meter for that in rural area; CNY 362 per square meter for brick-wood structures in town, and CNY 247 per square meter for that in rural area; and CNY 194 per square meter for wood structure in rural area. For affected rural households, they will be provided with funds to obtain new housing sites and to connect with road, electricity and water within the current village group or administrative village. For those affected urban households, they will not be provided with the rebuilt housing plot in principle, and the compensation for house demolition will be set at CNY 70 per square meter according to the compensation rate for land utilized for residence in town. There will be no reduction in house compensation for depreciation, and people will be allowed to salvage materials from their old houses.

D. Resettlement Strategy 7. Efforts to minimize resettlement effects have been made after consultation with local officials during the setting of the dike alignment in the initial feasibility study. The change of routing of certain sections of new dikes during feasibility study has resulted in 50.3%, viz.415.14mu, reduction of land acquisition, and the number of relocated households was kept to only 139, a 60.84% reduction of household demolition. For those unavoidably affected, the resettlement strategy is to replace any losses of housing, land, other assets, infrastructure and income. 8. Of all the affected persons, only 65 persons will undergo the house relocation and farmland loss, and 558 persons will loss land only. Since the impacts are widely dispersed among the affected villagers, and the land holdings per capita of most villages and groups are relative high, the practical loss will not be significant, and the actual loss impact will be mitigated through replacement. Therefore, most affected persons will continue to be engaging in agricultural facilities. Only 30 persons will transfer their income sources from the agricultural activities to non-agricultural activities. Of the affected 60 villages, only 7 villages will loss above 10% holdings of the farmland, and other 53 villages will loss 1.2~10% holdings of land according to survey. Based on extensive consultation, detailed economic rehabilitation plans have been developed for all affected villages, which are included in the RP. According to the RP, all affected persons will be either provided compensation directly or replacement land through village land readjustment so as to ensure that all village members have sufficient land to farm. For those villages that adopt land readjustment, they will utilize the compensation funds to improve farm conditions and structures, develop cash crops, and various non-cropping activities. 9. The Key Project Office under HPWRD will ensure that the resettlement entitlements are provided to the affected people before ground clearance and demolition begins. Land compensation and resettlement subsidy will be paid to the affected village collectives. Housing, young crop and other asset compensation will be provided directly to the affected people. Compensation for infrastructure such as electrical and communication facilities will be paid to the concerned government departments for restoration. 10. The resettlement regulations have standard provisions for moving allowance to assist the affected people during the transition phase. Also, the subproject contractors will be requested by Key Project Office under HPWRD to give priority allocation of unskilled jobs to those householders who are to be resettled during the construction period. This will be handled through consultation with the township and village leaders. E. Institutional Arrangements

5 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

11. ADB Loans Project Management Office of Hunan Province will undertake the responsibility of implementing the resettlement work all-roundly according the approved RP. Project Management Office of Hunan Province will strengthen the leadership of project implementation, coordinate the work relations between counties (cities and districts), and assure the smooth construction of main works and implementation of relocation resettlement. At the responsibility of officials in charge from Huaihua City People's Government, Huaihua City Project Construction Leading Group will be responsible for strengthening the implementation leadership in their respectively governed district of the city, coordinate the work relations between townships (towns, sub-districts), and ensure the smooth implementation of main works construction and relocation resettlement. The leading group and relocation demolition office will be established in Hecheng District with 6-8 members equipped in each. The relocation office in each district will function in management, planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation, take the major responsibility for relocation consultation, implementation and timely providing the due rights, and assisting the relevant villages and towns. F. Vulnerable Groups 12. Through investigation, there is no minority population found in all affected persons. 13. According to the survey and statistics provided by affected villages and townships, among the affected people, about 14 people are included in the vulnerable group, accounting for 0.58% of all the affected people in affected villages. Most of them are the vulnerable group such as disabled, elderly living alone and extremely poor, woman-headed family. For these vulnerable people, the Subproject PMO will provide additional financial and physical support. Under the Resettlement Plan, vulnerable groups will receive the following additional assistance: (i) physical help in housing construction and relocation free of charge and (ii) a special subsidy to enable them to maintain their living standards while constructing their houses. The specific amount for such assistance will be determined according to the actual condition and their needs. For this purpose, the local PMO agreed to set aside a special fund of 1% of the total resettlement cost, which will be used to provide direct and needed help for the vulnerable people. G. Consultation and Grievance Redress 14. The relevant National, Provincial, and Municipal policies and regulations require disclosure and consultation with the affected people, who should be notified about the key elements of the RP during meetings and interviews. Prior to implementation, there will be further consultations arranged by township and village officials to discuss specific impacts in each village and how they will be addressed. The people losing housing will be offered a choice of housing sites; and those losing agricultural land will have the opportunity to consider suitable income replacement options. All the

6 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

villagers will be able to have input to decisions on how to utilize the collective compensation funds. 15. Six months prior to resettlement implementation, a resettlement information booklet will be distributed to all affected townships, villages and households by HPWRD and Huaihua PMO. The information booklet contains the resettlement scope, expected timeframe; compensation rates for land and other assets, other assistance to replace assets, relocation and economic rehabilitation strategies, and the grievance redress mechanisms. The district, township and village officials will ensure that any concerns raised by the people affected are quickly addressed. 16. In case of grievance, people affected will submit their oral or written complaint first to the village committee or the township resettlement office. If their complaint is not settled in 10 days, they can seek redress at the Huaihua City resettlement office or Huaihua PMO, within one month. If still unresolved within two weeks, the PRO of HPWRD will try to achieve a solution. Final redress, if necessary, would be sought in the civil courts, in accordance with the Civil Procedures Act. H. Monitoring and Reporting 17. The detailed plan for internal and external monitoring and evaluation is included in the RP. HPWRD will engage a qualified monitoring agency to carry out independent resettlement monitoring and evaluation. The independent monitoring agency will ascertain the extent to which the affected people have (i) received their full entitlements on time and (ii) fully restored their livelihoods, income levels and living standards. It will also conduct a baseline survey prior to resettlement, semi-annual investigations during resettlement and annual survey updates for two years after the completion of resettlement. The household survey will include a representative number of those severely affected by loss of land, those losing housing, and those classified as minorities and/or economically vulnerable. 18. A quarterly reporting system is being established in the PRO. HPWRD will report to ADB on the progress of land acquisition and resettlement through resettlement progress reports. The HPWRD will also provide ADB with copies of the independent monitoring and evaluation reports to be prepared twice a year during resettlement implementation and once a year after resettlement completion. After completion of land acquisition and resettlement, HPWRD will prepare a resettlement completion report and submit this to ADB. I. Finance and Implementation Schedule 19. The RP budget estimate is RMB 24.1775 million or US$2.97 million, for all costs including compensation, resettlement subsidy, payment for other assets (e.g. housing, equipment), moving allowance, vulnerable groups subsidy, fees for resettlement administration, and monitoring and evaluation. HPWRD will guarantee to supplement the resettlement budget, as may prove necessary,

7 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

to meet any shortfall which emerges in achieving the resettlement objectives. 20. The resettlement implementation schedule has been prepared based on the Subproject construction, quantities of work, timetable, and resettlement target and mode. It is planned that the total investment in resettlement is arranged for the 4-year-project. Compensation for land acquisition and demolition will be basically finished in the first 2 years.

1. General Description of Project 1.1 Project Background Hunan Province is located on the south bank of middle reaches of Changjiang River, bordering Jiangxi Province on the east, neighboring the on the south, connecting Guangdong Province and Province, and close to the Province and City with the unbroken mountains in Guizhou and Chongqing areas. Changjiang River separates Hunan Province and Hubei Province on the north, and nearly 70% cities of Hunan Province are located in mountainous areas or hilly areas. These cities lie in the areas with relatively high ground elevation, and the landform varies greatly. These areas are subject to the flash flood though they are affected little by the and the propping of tail water level of the four rivers. Because the river level in mountainous areas rises sharply and abruptly with great flow velocity, the cities along the river are always destructively damaged. In November of 1999, Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources worked out the report on urban flood-control planning in Hunan Province according to Flood-control Planning Outline for Changjiang River Drainage Area and Compilation Outline for Urban Flood-control Planning (Ministry of Water Resources [1998] No.215 Document). This report covers 91 cities, plans for the 18.30 milllion urban populations, and 2253km2 urban areas. The embankment-construction-oriented project plan is determined in the report, and the existing embankments to be heightened and reinforced are 1037.16km in total, and the would-be-built embankments total 600.53km. Only the cities of above county level and once seriously damaged by the flood in the mountainous areas of Hunan Province will be covered by this urban flood-control project in this time. They shall be the economy developed area, such as , , and , which are all the very important industrial cities, boasting the various industries of machinery, electronics, metallurgy, chemicals, building materials, paper making, mining, medicament, and foodstuff. And, of the local areas these cities shall be the financial, communications, and business centers as well as the science and education centers, where the municipal or county government is located, and moreover the distributing center of agricultural produce, industrial product, and commodities. Their economic status is very important. These cities are the main centers for the economic development of those areas with dense population, and are clustered with properties. If these cities are submerged or suffered great losses, the economic development of local areas will be seriously affected. In addition, the manpower and material resources are abundant in these cities; it is the main rear base for flood-control and providing disaster relief. The submergence of these cities will bring the disaster relief and

9 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

rehabilitation works into a passive situation. In years, the government at every level in Hunan Province and the local masses took great pains and sacrificed a lot for fighting floods in these cities, and enormous achievements were achieved. According to statistics, in the 36 urban areas undertaking the project, total 286.628km long flood-control embankments, and 141 drainage water gates, and 124 drainage pump stations of 15648kW have been built. Because the flood-control works is improving slowly, the present urban flood-control standards of these cities are low, which are only for the 4-year-occurrence~20-year-occurence floods, and their waterlogging drainage abilities are only for floods between 3-year-occurrence~8-year-occurence, and only a few cities are in the fortified status, while most cities are undefended or incompletely defended. At present, the urban flood-control standard in project area is low. The flood disasters hit there in successive years. According to historical records, great floods occurred in 1980,1981,1983, and 1988 after the frightful flood cataclysms in 1954 and 1955. The losses caused by flood and waterlogging rose year after year. In 1990s, flood disasters frequently happened, and the losses due to the flood disaster rose sharply. In 1991, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1998, and 1999, large floods and waterlogging disasters happened successively, which caused great losses. Many cities were submerged wholly or partly, and nearly all cities are damaged by flood and waterlogging to various degrees. In 1991, the losses caused by flood disaster amount to 760 million yuan; in 1993, the losses caused by flood disaster amount to 1870 million yuan; in 1994, the losses caused by flood disaster amount to 3090 million yuan; and the great floods in 1995,1996 and 1998 each caused over 5000 million yuan losses, reaching 5610 million yuan, 10900 million yuan and 5973 million yuan respectively. Such enormous losses caused by flood and waterlogging disasters have seriously hindered the life and property of people in urban areas. Therefore, the construction progress and urban flood-control project strengthening shall be speeded up and beefed up to facilitate the economy development being in a speedy, stable and forward way. Thus, the people’s life and property can be safeguarded, the strong points will be given full play and the weak ones will be avoided, the economy development will be guaranteed by constructing and perfecting the necessary flood-control and waterlogging treatment facilities. Huaihua City lies in the mountainous terrain. Wushui River passes through the city, Taiping Stream transversally run through the urban area. Owing to the particularity of this area, insufficient importance has been placed to the urban flood control work, the infrastructures for flood-control are vulnerable, no complete flood-control and waterlogging drainage system come into being. In flood season, the city is basically undefended. At present, it cannot resist the 10-year-occurence floods. According to the relevant data, the flood has been a threat to Huaihua City for several years. The

10 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

flood will submerge the city every 2~3 years. Since liberation, the serious flood disasters occurred in 1969, 1979, 1990, 1994, 1995, and 1996. In particular, the great floods occurred in successive years of 1994, 1995, and 1996. Because the flood control ability of Huaihua City is poor, the standard of flood control is low, and the incoming floods in mountainous area are always fierce, the loss caused by flood in every time was considerably heavy, and the direct economic loss reached 100 million yuan, 185 million yuan, and 441 million yuan respectively. With the rapid economic development of Huaihua City, the land occupation scale in urban area expanded, and the population in city boomed, which means the loss caused by the same level flood will increase for several times. As the sub-project city utilizing the loans from ADB, Huaihua City will thus greatly be improved in its flood-control and waterlogging-prevention abilities through the implementation of project. The flood-control standard will rise from the present less than 5-year-occurence to 20-year-occurence flood, and the waterlogging-prevention ability will rise from the present natural drainage to 10-year-occurence floods. The improvement will greatly relieve the burden on the flood-control for Huaihua City Area, and facilitate the sound development of society. 1.2 General Situation of Project 1.2.1 Areal Geography Location Huaihua City is located on the drainage area of River, the southwest part of Hunan Province, between Xuefeng Mountain range and Wuling Mountain range, connecting Guizhou Province on the west, Guangxi Zhuang Minority Autonomy Prefecture, neighboring the City, City, City, and City on the east, and bordering Xiangxi Autonomous City.

1) Adopt the engineering, technical, economic measures to avoid or minimize the quantities of material goods to be removed and relocated; If the land acquisition and relocation is unavoidable, try best to adopt the effective measures to minimize the impact on the local residents due to the land acquisition and relocation. 2) In project preparation phase, conduct the social economy investigation and compile the relevant resettlement plan; 3) The resettlement shall be based on detailed physical indices in terms of relocated material goods and compensation standard in order to increase or at least restore the income and production levels for the affected people; 4) Promote resettlement in a developing mode. The resettlement in the rural areas shall be land-based, supplemented with possible employment in second or tertiary industries. 5) Encourage the resettlers and original residents in resettlement area to take part in the resettlement planning; 6) Try best to resettle in the original community. 7) The resettlers and the former residents in resettlement area shall all be benefited from the project. 1.4.2 Method of Report Compilation The Key Project Office under the Water Resources Department of Hunan Province as project EA is responsible for overall resettlement preparation. The relevant resettlement design units, consulting units and local government shall all participate in the process. In December of 2004, with the active support from local governments in Huaihua City, the designers of HPWRHDI conducted the general surveys and statistics on the physical indices for the land-acquisition-affected area. Based on census survey, detailed sample survey on social economic conditions and attitudes of the affected people was also carried out. In investigation, designer had consulted with the PMO (project management office) of Huaihua City and held several resettlement coordination meeting attended by the government department at every level and representatives of resettlers from affected area. Comments were made on the resettlement plan, economic rehabilitation options, and compensation, which were the basis for developing resettlement plan. According to the current national policies, laws and regulations and the requirements on resettlement by ADB, the resettlement team carried out detailed analysis on the degree of impact and feasibility of proposed rehabilitation for each affected township (Subdistrict) in project area. The resettlement plan was further revised according to the opinions and the site visit by PPTA experts. The completed draft resettlement plan will be reviewed and endorsed by both HPWR and local city government before submitting to ADB approval. 2. Project Impacts

15 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

2.1 Measures for Avoiding or Reducing to the Minimum the Land Acquisition and Relocation Impacts 2.1.1 Measures for Reducing the Land Acquisition Impacts in Project Design Phase 1) According to Huaihua City Urban Flood-control Planning Report, and Hunan Province Feasibility Study Report for Key Embankment of Yuanshui River in Hunan Province, the layout principle of the above said embankment alignments is adopted on the 1/2000 topographic map. The embankment alignment adopted in the feasibility study of time is basic the same as the Planning Report. The embankment basically runs along the first terrace of river embankment, and in parallel with the main flow alignment of great flood. In order to reduce the land occupation and house demolition for project, as long as the stability of riverbank and flood-control embankment is guaranteed, the flood-control embankment will be laid close to the river bank so far as possible. The river cross section is narrow in some part, which shall be widened to make the distance between both banks almost equal. Along the bank, slope cutting and straightening shall be done to the section blocking the flood flow and relieving. Thus, the riverbank after protective laying will be smooth. And the detailed planning is as follows: Taiping Stream Zuoan Protection Circle: Left embankment alignment 1# starts from Railway Bridge along the Taiping Stream along the riverbank to up reaches. The embankment alignment shall be pushed inwardly at the Chengnan Middle School to straighten the embankment alignment and expand the flood-relieving section, hence the area ending at the highland of fabric weaving mill will form a closed circle. Left embankment alignment 2# starts from Tangwan along the Taiping Stream riverbank, and laying inwardly at the place of Shizi Rock to straighten the embankment alignment. Left bank 3# flood-control embankment starts from Xichong of Left bank of Taiping Stream and ends at the backyard of Huaihua Fifth Railway Station. Because the riverway from Old Taiping Bridge~ Hutian Bridge is very narrow, only about 45m wide, and the average width of riverway on upper and lower reaches is 70m. For the safety of flood-relieving through riverway, the work of upper reaches and lower reaches shall be well coordinated. In the design of this time, the embankment alignment is to be laid inwardly, and the left bank will be appropriately widened to 70m. The Left 4# embankment alignment will basically set along the riverbank. At the section of Left 5# embankment alignment from Xiwu Primary School to Yangzhouwan River Reaches, in order to shorten the embankment alignment, and expand the flood relieving section, the embankment alignment shall be pushed inwardly at the section from Xiwu Primary School to Yangliuwan River Reaches, and the embankment alignment from Sanyantang to Xiwu Primary School section is basically laid out along the river bank line.

16 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

Taiping Stream Youan Protection Circle: Right Protection Circle embankment alignment 1# positions inward from the Shizi Quarry; The land within the right 2# protection circle is high on east and low on west, and the ground elevation is 218~235m. The embankment alignments are basically laid out along the riverbank except the section at pile no. 5+780 is positioned inward. Right 3# protection circle embankment alignment is basically laid out along the riverbank. Embankment Distance Design and Determination For the section of Taiping Stream in the urban districts of Huaihua City, the new embankment will be built along both banks, and thus form a closed flood-control protection circle. According to the above-mentioned embankment length and the current state of riverway profile, the river regime changing, the topographic conditions of both riverbanks, and for the planning of city development, three alternative schemes of 60m, 70m, and 80m embankment distance respectively have been developed. The design flood results are listed in Chapter 2, See Table 2.1-1 for the technical economy comparison of schemes of various embankment distances. Scheme : The embankment distance in this scheme is 60m. The embankment alignment is basically laid along the existing riverbank. In embankment construction, few houses along the river would be demolished, but the flood relieving section of riverway is relative small, the riverway, which is not wide at all, will be even more narrower. It will not be good for flood relieving, and the flood water level will be elevated much for these human factors. The water level at control section (Hutian Bridge) in urban area will be higher than the naturally elevated-level for 0.65m(P=1%)and 0.50m (P=2%). The Scheme will partly occupy the riverway, and the elevation of water level will be considerable great, which do not meet the Code of Flood Control and Regulations on Riverway Management. Scheme : The embankment distance in this scheme is 70m. There are many residential buildings in urban districts along both banks of Taiping Stream, these houses are low, some buildings affect and block the flood relieving considerably, and most of them will be inundated by flood. Such buildings will be demolished step by step along with the old urban district renovation and highway construction. Therefore, in the embankment alignment layout, some of these house is to be demolished according to plan, the embankment distance will be coordinated with the natural riverway on upper and lower reaches in urban areas. In addition, public utilities will be protected to avoid the over-damage, the design water level of control section (at Hutian Bridge) will be higher than the natural water level for 0.43m(P=1%)and 0.33m(P=2%). Scheme : The embankment distance in this scheme is 80m, which is considering the best for flood relieving. The elevation value of water level in this scheme is less than that in Scheme 1 and

17 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

Scheme 2, but it damages the built urban area most, and 58936m2 houses would be demolished. In this scheme, 22458m2 houses more than Scheme 2, most are high-rise, will need to be relocated and demolished. The implementation of this scheme will be very tough. Considered all the above-mentioned factors, the Scheme 2 of 70m embankment distance is adopted. Embankment Distance Comparison Table 2.1-1

Remarks: Land occupation in project include the land occupied for embankment excavation and compaction, and areas abandoned outside embankment for embankment construction. Embankment Alignment Layout Scheme of Laotaiping Bridge ~ Hutian Bridge In this phase, the scheme comparison has been done for the two embankment alignment layout schemes for the section from Taizuo 3# embankment section Laotaiping Bridge(pile no. 1+494)~ Hutian Bridge(pile no. 2+154). The Scheme 1 is the exterior alignment scheme: the embankment alignment is set along the riverside, the embankment alignment in this section is 768m long, and the terrace elevation is 215~219m; Scheme 2 is the interior alignment scheme: the embankment alignment will be set in parallel with the Huaxi Road, the embankment alignment of this section is 660m long, the ground elevation is 218.5~219.4m. The quantities of works in the schemes of two alignment are shown in Table 2.1-2.

The implementation of Scheme 2 will broaden the riverway flow section, effect much safer flood relieving, and the water flow will be much smoother and fluent, and minimize the vulnerable sections suffering the less siltation, scouring, and bank slump. Through analysis, the Scheme 2 of interior embankment alignment is adopted as the recommendation scheme in the feasibility study of this time. See Embankment Alignment Plan Layout for details. 2) Optimize the construction design, shorten the construction period, and reasonably arrange the house relocation and construction period, try best to reduce the losses of resettlers’ properties. For example, the house relocation and rebuilding shall be conducted in the farm slack season, and the use the lands after reaping the young crops on them. Try best to utilize the wastelands as the expropriated land, because on which the construction period is long (over two years). 3) In the design, fully consider the inconvenience brought about to the life and production of local residents due to the embankment construction. In general, for the convenience of local residents, recover the damages of channel system, mechanical dock, communications facilities and other infrastructures after embankment construction to ensure the complete functions of infrastructures. 2.1.2 Measures for Reducing the Impact due to Land Acquisition in Project Construction The lands occupied in this project are distributed in linear form. As for the whole project area, the project construction will not greatly affect the local industrial and agricultural production, people’s

19 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

livelihood and social economy. The land acquisition and relocation along the linear area will not bring about much impact. But for minimizing the impacts on the local area due to the project construction in so far as possible, special attention will be paid to set out the construction site and choose the construction scheme, and prevent the unnecessary land acquisition and house demolition. The following measures shall be adopted: 1) Before demolition and relocation, organize the relevant persons to conduct the on-spot survey. Try to relocate lesser or do not relocate the houses that are unnecessary or can be partly removed in practice. 2) Before building demolition due to the temporary land occupation by the project, report to the unit of owner via PMO to empty the buildings. Or set up the temporary housing in the unit area for resettlement. After the project completion, set up new buildings and return to the original owner or employer unit. 3) For losses suffered by resident due to the demolition and relocation, adequate compensation shall be paid according to the replacement value. Try best to minimize unfavorable impacts on resettlers. 4) The resettlement area shall be located at the place close to the original residential areas so as to maintain the existing social relationship for the affected people, and on the other hand it will also reduce the commuting distance for the affected people. 5) Notify the affected enterprises in advance, and arrange sites for relocating them. Compensate their losses, try best to shorten the interruption period, and negotiate with the County Project Management Office to provide proper rehabilitation for affected employees. 6) During relocation and resettlement, for the convenience of residents and enterprises to be resettled, for carrying on the resettlement work smoothly, and minimizing the loss and relieving the burden on resettlers, the concerned local functional departments shall vigorously support the resettlers. 7) Strengthen the system of public participation. Before the project construction, clarify the project commencement time and planned project construction progress by putting Notice in the project affected area and the resettlement area, make the compensation policies for land acquisition and resettlement public, and undergo the supervision from the resettlers and original residents in resettlement areas; In project construction period, use the local materials by preference. For benefiting the affected persons from the project construction, use the local transports and laborers if the technical conditions allowed. 8) Reduce the dust and strengthen the health management for builders. The construction unit shall carefully plan the route for transporting the earthwork and stonework. Measures shall be

20 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

adopted to guarantee that the soils and stones will not be sprinkled along the way while the truck full of loading, and thus affect the environment tidiness. In construction period, a large number of laborers will come to the worksite to undertake all kinds of works and services. In order to guarantee the public security and orders in work site and the health of various groups in construction area, the project construction unit shall supervise and urge the builders to obey the regulations of local environment sanitation department, toughen the management on the healthy protection for builder group, timely clear the domestic waste on construction site, keep the construction area tidy, and prevent the occurrence and contagion of infectious diseases. 2.2 Investigation on Project Impacts 2.2.1 Investigation Contents In December of 2004, Hunan Province Hydraulic and Hydropower Design Institute, together with the Huaihua City Water Resources Bureau, the government of each level, had formed a joint investigation team. The team conducted the comprehensive survey on the project impacts in project-affected area according to the coverage determined in the project design and the 1:2000 geologic type topographic map in hand. The contents of investigation included the land acquisition, the land acquisition affected population, houses to be demolished and relocated, and auxiliary facilities, scattered trees, individuals engaged in small business, enterprises and institutions, and agricultural sideline production facilities and special facilities, etc. 2.2.2 Investigation Method 1) Investigation on Land Acquisition: The investigators on spot clearly found out the ownership of various lands according to the 1:2000 topographic map in hand. Measured and calculated the area of cultivated land, garden plot, woods, and various lands in the unit of villager’s group. 2) Demographic Census: In the investigation into the land acquisition and demolition, affected people was classified into three kinds, affected by land acquisition without relocation, affected by demolition and relocation without land-acquisition, and affected by both land acquisition and relocation. The actual affected population was further divided with regard to the non-agricultural population and agricultural population, through the comprehensive investigation in unit of household concerning the nationality, age structure, education background, and employment status. The population was checked on site according to the household register card, and the results of survey were registered in detailed lists for each family. 3) Investigation on Houses and Auxiliary Facilities: The comprehensive survey was conducted on structures of houses. The areas of houses were

21 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

2) Temporary Land Acquisition The construction temporary land acquisition refers to the temporarily-borrowed land in the project construction period, including land acquisition of stone material yard, construction plant, construction warehouse, and temporary area for livelihood and temporary construction road during construction period. The total area of the construction plant, construction warehouse, temporary area for living quarters for the contractors, and temporary structures in the project is 9285m2. As they are mainly allocated in the project permanent land acquisition range along the embankment, there will be no temporary land acquisition impact to the layout of the construction plant, construction warehouse, and temporary area for livelihood during construction period. As the existing roads will be destroyed during project implementation process, corresponding compensation costs shall be paid to the municipal administration department. As the compensation costs are included in the project contract as one part of the project costs, they will be paid by the construction Contractor. Accordingly, the project construction temporary road land acquisition will not be counted and the compensation costs will not be estimated in the report. The main temporary land occupation impacts come from the soil and stone material yard in the project, including Qinglu soil material yard. Two townships (towns, sub-districts), two administrative villages, and four villager’s groups are involved. Various land with an area of 359.82 mu are temporarily expropriated, all of them are shrubbery land, and the mean time limit for land borrow is two years. See table 2.3-3 for details of the statistical conditions of the investigation results of the temporary land acquisition in this project.

2.3.2 Affected Population Due to Project 1) Affected Population Due to Land Acquisition The investigation of the affected population due to land acquisition of the project will be counted

28 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

from two aspects, one is the actually affected population due to land acquisition of the project; the other is the number of agricultural population need economic rehabilitation according to the principle of Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China, namely, the economic rehabilitation shall be rearranged to the agricultural population who has lost all of their main productive materials - cultivated land. According to the physical materials indices in project land acquisition investigation, the number of people who need economic rehabilitation will be counted in villager’s groups. It is obtained by dividing the area of land acquisition for each village group with cultivated area per capita of each group. The result of population was 588 persons. It means that there are 588 agricultural persons who need economic rehabilitation by the project. As the project is distributed in linear shape along Yuanshui River, for most affected persons, they would only lose small part of lands. According to the site investigation and statistics, 558 households (1981 persons) are actually affected by land acquisition in the project, and all of them will be actually affected by permanent land acquisition in the project, averaging only 0.12 mu cultivated land per person. 2) Affected Population Due to Demolition According to the site investigation, the area of the residential house to be demolished is 24232.24m2, and 139 households (483 persons) shall be relocated, of which, agricultural population, 407 (124 households), non-agricultural population, 76 (15 households). The demolition will result in relocation and reconstruction of new houses for all of them. 3) Employees in the Affected Enterprises According to the investigation, eight enterprises and institutions will be affected by the project construction. As only parts of the enterprises and institutions shall be demolished, the enterprises and institutions can operate their normal business as usual. 4) Affected Individuals Engaged in Small-scale Business According to the investigation, 1 small shop will be affected by the land acquisition and demolition in the project area. The small shop rented spaces from local residents. There are 3 persons working in this one small shop. All of them will be affected by the project when their businesses will be closed due to demolition and land acquisition impact. 5) Total of Affected Population Due to Project Through statistics, 684 households (2398 persons) will be affected by the project land acquisition. Among them, 545 households (1916 persons) will be affected by land acquisition (without house demolition); 126 households (417 persons) will be affected by house demolition only (without land

29 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

acquisition), and 13 households (65 persons) will be affected by both the land acquisition and house demolition. Among the affected population due to land acquisition and resettlement, 588 agricultural persons need economic rehabilitation. About 139 households (483 persons) need to be rehabilitated through replacement housing; and 3 employees in 1 small shop will be provided compensation and rehabilitation for interruption of their business. See table 2.3-4 for details of the affected population in the project.

2.3.3 Houses and Auxiliary Facilities to be Demolished 1) Affected Residential Houses and Auxiliary Facilities by the Project The demolished houses by the project will involve 2 sub-districts, 4 villages (residential committees), and 6 organs of Hecheng District of Huaihua City. About 139 households (483 resettlers) will be affected, of which, 15 households (76 residents) are rural residents, and 124 households (407 persons) are urban residents. The total demolished houses amount to 24232.24m2 (brick concrete 22027.9m2, brick wood, 1509.15m2, wood house, 194.77m2, simple structure, 500.42m2). Along with house demolition, there are cement sunny ground, 1766.51m2, wall, 457.16m2, 23 air conditioners, 26 telephone sets, and CATV, 139 households. According to the investigation, in the project land acquisition area, most residential houses are owned by individuals. Most residential houses are one or two-floor houses with brick concrete structure and brick wood structure, and only a few houses are the old ones with wood structures or earth wood structures. Since many demolished houses were built in 1980s, the basic living conditions and the related facilities are considerably poor. Most residents also hope they can move as soon as possible, so as to improve their living conditions. See table 2.3-5 for details of the investigation conditions of the residential houses to be demolished in the project. 2) Affected Non-residential Structures by the Project According to the investigation, in the land acquisition area by the project, 2 enterprises and institutions and 1 small shop will be affected by the land acquisition and resettlement. The area of the demolished non-residential structure is 2840.16m2, of which, the brick concrete structure, 1636.98m2, brick wood structure, 836.68m2, and simple structure, 6.5m2 (Since 1 small shop is used for both residence and business, the area has been listed in the residential house to be demolished). The affected sunny ground is 127.7m2. See table 2.3-6 for details of the investigation conditions of the non-residential houses to be demolished in the project.

2.4 Impact Analysis of Project 2.4.1 Project Impact Characteristics 1) In the project land acquisition area, the impact on the population, residential houses and cultivated land is considerably small. The affected population by the project demolition occupies 2.89% of the total population in the village and group, and the affected cultivated land occupies 1.44% of the total cultivated land in the village and group. 2) The affected population and house by the project construction is 139 households (483 persons) and 24232.24 m2 respectively, of which, the resettlers to be resettled in urban area is 124 households (407 persons), and the resettlers to be resettled in rural area is 15 households (76 persons). They are mainly centralized in Hongxing Sub-district, occupying more than 84% of the total affected population. In the houses to be demolished, about 90.13% houses are brick concrete structures. 3) The permanent land acquisition with an area of 409.96 mu is required for the project construction, of which, the cultivated land to be acquisitioned is 226.2 mu (including paddy field, 134.9 mu, dry farmland, 38.1 mu, and vegetable plot, 53.2 mu), accounting for 55.18% of the total land to be acquisitioned. The rest 44.82% is housing plot, land for state industry and unused land. These cultivated land to be acquisitioned are distributed in 60 villagers’ groups in 11 administrative villages of 3 sub-districts in Huaihua City, with the linear and scattered characteristics. 4) One individual small shop affected by project construction is the unprofessional one for both residence and business, the scale is considerably small, and the business profits are lower generally. 5) Eight enterprises and institutions will be affected by land acquisition and demolition in the project area, as only the auxiliary production houses or production houses of them are affected, its normal production, operation or office will not be largely impacted by project construction. 6) There is no important special facilities in the project land acquisition and resettlement area, except for few high-voltage transmission lines and mail lines, the rest is the rural small infrastructure. 2.4.2 Impact Analysis Evaluation The construction of project will damage the original production system in the affected area, and certain impacts will be brought to the local production and livelihood accordingly. The losses of the land resources will destroy the material conditions for livelihood of part of the farmers, so, they shall adapt to new environment for working and livelihood again. The staff of the design unit have fully considered the destructive effect of land acquisition on the local production and livelihood system during project design process, and accordingly, they have constantly optimized the project design, adopted project measures to reduce the land acquisition area, and relieved the impacts of project

39 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

construction on local production and livelihood. At the same time, as the project is distributed in linear shape along Wushui River, according to the analysis on each villager’s group, among 60 villager’s groups in 11 villages affected by the project land acquisition, each affected village will lose 4.87% of the land on average, for all the villager’s groups, except the proportion of the land impact on 3 groups is more than 20%, the proportion of the land impact on other villager’s groups is less than 20%, of which, the proportion of the land impact on 12 villager’s groups is less than 10%, and the proportion of the land impact on other 31 villager’s groups is less than 5%. Therefore, the impact of the project construction on the agricultural production of each village and group along the line is little, for the whole project area, its impact is local, and no large impact will be brought to the local agricultural production, people’s livelihood, and development of social economy. Nowadays, the topography of the project impact area is low and flat, and wide, most areas often suffer from flood and waterlogging disasters, which restrict the development of local economy, the project construction has provided a chance for reconstruction of production system and social system for resettlers. After completion of the project, the capability of flood control and emergency service along the new embankment will be greatly improved, and the disastrous degree of flood will be reduced, so as to provide a better environment that safeguard peoples’ lives and properties. At the same time, the circulation of the agricultural products and byproducts will be accelerated, and the development of local agricultural production will be improved. In addition, combinations of adjustment of agricultural plantation structure, perfection of farm and hydraulic facilities, reconstruction of farmland with low and middle yield of the resettlers, full exploitation of land resources potential are also the protective policies for cultivated land in project land acquisition according to the Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China. According to the compensation system for cultivated land acquisition, and the policy of “Cultivate what is occupied”, try best to compensate the lost cultivated land, so as to reach a balance of acquisition and reclamation. Through resettlement planning, try best to resettle the resettlers in the areas with considerably superior natural and traffic conditions, and social environment. Additionally, the preferential treatment and support will be given to the resettlers from policies, technologies, funds, and substances, so as to ensure that they will resume or reach the former level as soon as possible.

2) Basic Attitude of Affected People The sample survey and analysis shows that: Have knowledge with the project: 99.44% of the affected people claimed that they had knowledge of the project but 5.56% are on the contrary. Sources of information: 66.67% of the affected people get known from the investigation persons and 33.33% from the residents of the neighboring villages. Support attitude: All affected people hold an attitude of supporting the project. Views on Impact: 100% of the affected people think the flood control benefit is obvious, and by way of the reasonable compensation, the negative impacts can be alleviated. Resettlement Approach: For urban resettlers, 100% choose the in-kind rehabilitation through exchange of property; for rural resettlers, 100% require self-construction based on housing plots arranged by the government. Economic rehabilitation: 12.43% of resettlers ask for cash compensation, and 87.57% ask for compensation through land adjustment. 3.4 Social and Economic Effects for Resettlement to the Affected Population The project implementation will produce a certain impact on socio-economic factor: 1. The affected area is located at the junction of the rural and urban areas with good infrastructure conditions, where the local farmers have a lot of opportunities in non-farm employment, such as day labor and small business. Most those surplus labor forces have moved into the second and tertiary industry or individual business, gradually moving out of reliance on the land. According to the investigation, in the affected Yingkou Township, Tuoyuan Sub-Office and Shimen Township, there were 27347 employed labor forces, including 16624 non-agricultural population engaged in industry, architecture, traffic, wholesale and retail, accounting for 61.79% of the rural labor forces. Analysis from the incomes structure shows that the annual total income of the affected households was 278270 yuan, including 80680 yuan for the agricultural incomes, accounting for 28.99% of the total income; 38360 yuan for the animal husbandry incomes, accounting for 13.79% of the total income; 159230 yuan for the non-agricultural income, accounting for 57.22% of the total income. Through analysis, the agricultural income only accounts for 28.99% of the total income. The investigation shows that in spite of the land loss, the local farmers will suffer the decrease of agricultural incomes, however, due to the small proportion for plantation in the total incomes, they will have little impacts on their production and living. 2. For farmers with land plantation as their main livelihood resources, the land loss will result in the loss of complete or partial production means, however, as the project is linearly distributed

68 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

along the Nanshui River, the upstream of the Zishui River, the land acquisition of the project will result in slight influence on the agricultural production of resettlers, on average every affected village will lose their land of 4.87%. According to the site investigation, it is known that, in most of the affected 60 villager’s groups, the cultivated land requisition proportion is less than 20%, and there are 53 groups (88.3%) with the cultivated land requisition proportion less than 10%. Most farmers have their contracted farmland occupied and suppressed slightly. In addition, it is planned in the affected villages to adopt the agricultural resettlement mode of local farmland adjustment, which can try not to impact the traditional production mode and livelihood of the affected persons, and restore, or even develop their living standard within short period of time; or to adopt the compensation in cash directly, so the farmers can utilize the land compensation costs to take on the agricultural operations such as adjusting plantation structure and developing greenhouse vegetables or the other non-agricultural operations such as developing stock and livestock breeding, which would increase their incomes and mitigate their poverty-stricken status, therefore, the land occupation will produce little impacts on their production and livelihood. 3. For relocated households, the process of moving and decorating new houses will consume certain manpower and material resources for the affected households, which need to be considered by the project sponsors. The PMO will, according to the associate policies, compensate their loss by way of providing the necessary livelihood subsidy such as moving and traffic costs, complete infrastructure costs around the new housing plot. In addition, the PMO and the local village committees will provide the necessary assistance. Therefore, the impacts from the project will be reduced to the minimum. 4. For the relocated enterprises and institutions, relocation needs a period of time or a certain procedure to identify new spaces, which will affect their normal business for a time and will result in the loss. According to the investigation, the 8 affected enterprises and institutions have the auxiliary administrative houses and dwellings occupied, so their production and operation have not big impacts. The project construction brings a lot of influences on the residents and businesses within the project area, but the impact is slight and after it completes, it will create favorable conditions for further development of Huaihua City, and facilitate the sustainable quick increase in economy.

4.3.2 Principles of Compensation Rehabilitation 1) The RAP should be based on the social and economic survey and the statistics of the physical indices surveyed in the affected project area. It should also conform to the current national and local land acquisition laws and policies and policy of involuntary resettlement established by ADB. During the implementation of the RAP, once the detailed methods of Hunan Province regarding the Decision by the State Council about Deepening Reformation and Strictly Enforcing Land Administration (GF [2004] NO.28) are issued, this project should make necessary adjustment according to the requirements of the relevant policies. 2) The engineering design should be optimized in order to protect the land and minimize the impact by the land acquisition and resettlement. To minimize the number of involuntary relocatees, the project should avoid the areas with high population density and multi-storied buildings as much as possible. Better construction methods and other measures should be taken to reduce the disturbance to people. 3) All the compensations and resettlements for the involuntary relocatees should be a part of the project. In order to benefit the relocatee, sufficient funds should be available to them. 4) It should be ensured that all the affected persons’ loss caused by the project would be compensated before the remove.

Anyone who refuses to sign the compensation for relocation contract or refuses to remove after the contract was signed will be treated according to relevant judicial programs or laws. 8) Relocatees’ loss will be compensated during the moving and transfer process. The recommended

84 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

host area should be provided with elementary basic infrastructure and service facilities. 10) Non-residential units’ loss caused by remove and suspension of business will be compensated. Reconstruction within the affected areas and relocation in outside area should conform to the planning requirements, as well as the second-remove should be avoided in the coming days. 11) Vulnerable group should be treated reasonably. The project sponsor should help them with choosing and moving their houses. 12) The owners of the infrastructure should be compensated.

The temporary land acquisition compensation should cover the loss to the former owner and user of the land (including the agriculture taxes). The standard of compensation should be increased and the former user of the land should be resettled appropriately if the use purpose or property right of the land changes when it was returned. If the temporarily land acquisition exceeds two years, the acquisition procedure should be handled again. 16) In order to insure the living standards and income levels will not decrease, all the labor forces affected by the land acquisition and resettlement should be provided with employment opportunity. Rehabilitation by allocating replacement land is encouraged, supplemented by development of second and tertiary industries. The villagers can choose to find a job by oneself. If the villages want to be the urban household, the former collective economic organization should help with paying required insurances for the relocatee. 17) Encourage the relocatee to participate in the preparation of resettlement planning and the process of resettlement; let the relocatee know the compensation and resettlement policies and standards.

the regulations on the cultivated land. The garden land acquisition in this project is orange garden. Because of lower breed, it is generally self-sufficient or limited to sell within the range of the local region, with relatively low price. Through investigation and analysis on calculation, the compensation fee for economic forestland acquisition is calculated as 70 percent of standard for paddy field, whereas resettlement subsidy is calculated as 100 percent of standard for paddy field. And the average annual output value of economic forestland acquisition is set at 893 yuan per mu according to 70 percent of vicinal paddy field, whereas land compensation fee for the forest is 893 yuan per mu according to annual output value of timber land. Based on this calculation, the unit price of compensation for economic forestland is set at 15878 yuan per mu. 4) Compensation Standard for Timber land Acquisition According to the relevant regulations of Methods of Hunan Province for Implementing the Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China, the land compensation fee for timber land acquisition shall be 30 percent to 50 percent of compensation standards for the paddy field near the land. And the resettlement subsidy of timber land acquisition shall be set at 50 percent of subsidy standard for vicinal paddy field. The land compensation fee for timber land acquisition is calculated as 40 percent of standard for paddy field, and resettlement subsidy as 50 percent of standard for paddy field. So the average annual output value of timber land is set at 510 yuan per mu according to 40 percent of vicinal paddy field, and the compensation fee for timber is set at 510 yuan according to the average annual output value of timber land. Through calculation, unit price of compensation for timber land is set at 8386 yuan per mu. 5) Compensation Standards of Housing Plot Acquisition According to the relevant regulations of Methods of Hunan Province for Implementing the Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China, the land compensation fee for the villagers’ housing plots shall comply with compensation standards for the vicinal paddy field. If the villagers’ housing plots need to rebuild, the resettlement subsidy shall be paid according to the classification standard for the rebuilding sites. Rebuilding sites from the villagers’ housing plot in this project are mainly the dry farmlands, so the land compensation fee is set at 7652 yuan per mu according to compensation standards for paddy field, whereas the resettlement subsidy is set at 6086 yuan per mu according to compensation standards for dry farmland. Based on this calculation, the unit price of the compensation fee for the villagers’ housing plots

91 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

is set at 13738 yuan per mu. 6) Compensation Standards for Waste Land According to the relevant regulations of Methods of Hunan Province for Implementing the Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China, the land compensation fee for expropriating waste mountains, wasteland and other unused land is 20 percent of the vicinal paddy field, and its resettlement subsidy is free from payment. Other land acquisition in this project is mainly the wasteland. No resettlement subsidy is paid, and what is only taken into consideration is the compensation fee for land acquisition. The unit price is set at 1530 yuan per mu according to the 20 percent of the land compensation fee for paddy land. z State-owned Land 1) Compensation Standards for Land Acquisition of Enterprises and Institutions According to the relevant regulations of Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China and its Implementation Regulations, the calculation of the land price such as remise, demise, tenancy and mortagage of land ownership as well as shareholder of real estate properties of state-owned land in Huaihua City, based on land price, acts as land asset amount after amending according to the factors of land area, exceptional factor, useful life, evaluation date, plot ratio, development extent, land depth, position deviation, etc. The land acquisition for enterprises and institutions in this project is mainly the land used to handle official business, production and construction. Through the consultation among Huaihua City PMO and affected work units as well as its department in charge, relocation and resettlement of land acquisition in urban flood control project of Huaihua City shall be executed with reference to Notification on New Achievement of Benchmark Land Prices of Towns in Whole City (HZF [2003] No.26): the industrial land in the south of Yuanshui City shall be compensated for 170 yuan per square meter. Based on this calculation, the unit price of compensation for land acquisition of enterprises and institutions in this project is 113390 yuan per mu. 2) Compensation Standard for Residential Land Acquisition The residential land acquisition in this project is mainly the urban dwellers’ housing plot. According to location factor of the demolished houses, through the consultation among Huaihua City PMO and affected work units as well as its department in charge, the compensation for land occupation of all the urban residential houses is paid as 70 yuan/m2. Based on this calculation, the unit price of compensation for land acquisition of urban residential houses in this project is set at 46690 yuan per mu.

In order to develop the reasonably compensation standards to make relocated household acquire the compensation equal to the replacement value, investigation and analysis on the resettlement prices of brick concrete buildings and brick-wood houses in the project-affected area are carried out along with investigation on physical indices. The consumption volume of materials for building house is determined according to the relevant quota from Quota

94 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

Manual of Architecture and Construction: the replacement value of urban residential brick concrete house is 364 yuan per square meter, the replacement value of brick-wood house is 292 yuan per square meter, and the replacement value of wood structure house is 229 yuan per square meter. Whereas the replacement value of rural residential brick concrete house is 308 yuan per square meter, the replacement value of brick wood house is 247 yuan per square meter, and the replacement value of wood structure house is 194 yuan per square meter. For details of analysis on replacement value of houses with various types of structures, see Table 4.3-5~4.3-6. Considering the different rate of decoration and building materials of residential houses in the project area, compensation standards for residential houses with various types of structures in this project can fluctuate within the range of 10 percent or so. According to location factor of demolished houses as well as relocation and resettlement mode (scattered resettlement in resettlers’ existing village is adopted to rural residential housing relocation, whereas cash compensation and property-right-exchange mode are adopted to the resettlement for urban residential housing relocation), through the consultation among Huaihua City PMO and affected work units as well as its department in charge: all the urban residential houses are compensated according to the mode of cash resettlement in principle. Among them, the section of land is compensated as 70 yuan/m2, and compensation standard for the section of construction complies with the replacement value of houses. For rural residence, the new housing plots are unifiedly arranged in principle, and compensation standard for relocation and demolition of house complies with replacement value of houses. Based on these calculations, analysis on replacement value of houses with various types of structures are presented in Table 4.3-5~4.3-6.

5. Resettlement and Rehabilitation Measures 5.1 Resettlement and Rehabilitation Objective Make proper compensation and appropriate resettlement in order to ensure the productivity, income level and living conditions of the affected people could be rehabilitated or improved. 5.2 Resettlement Population Calculation According to the investigation, 684 households with 2398 people are affected by the project land acquisition, of which 139 households with 483 people should be resettled by means of building new houses, and 588 agriculture populations should be provided economic rehabilitation. According to the time schedule of the project construction, the resettlement implementation will commence in the year of 2005, which is close to the investigation basic year, so the resettlement plan is prepared based on the population to be relocated as actually investigated, not take the nature increase of population into account. 5.2.1. Economic Rehabilitation Population The project is in the linear distribution along the Wushui River, most of the affected people only lose their partial land in land acquisition. According to the on-spot investigation, the permanent land acquisition will affect 60 groups of 11 villages in Yingkou Township, Tuoyuan Sub-district, and 3 Sub-districts of Shimen Township (all in Hecheng District of Huaihua City), in which 1981 persons of 558 households will be physically affected, the area of permanent acquisition cultivated lands is 226.2 mu, lost cultivated land per capita is 0.11 mu. The production rehabilitation population means the agricultural population who loses the major mean of production and working object (cultivated land) and need to provide them with production resettlement (the theoretical calculation data), the calculation is based on the indices of occupied cultivated land due to project, taking villager’s group as the unit, the amount of production rehabilitation population in term of groups is made out according to the formula: the area of acquisition cultivated land in every group is divided by the area of existing per capita cultivated land. The calculation formula is as follow: K= K,×S / S' Where: K stands for the existing economic rehabilitation population in every villager’s group. S stands for the area of occupied cultivated land due to the project in every villager’s group; S’ stands for the existing cultivated land in every villager’s group; K’ stands for the existing agricultural population in every villager’s group. According to the above formula, in the project affected range, 276 agricultural people need economic rehabilitation, The calculations of production rehabilitation population of every villager’s group in the project affected area will be shown in details in table 5.2-1.

5.3 General Scheme of Rehabilitation The construction of Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project (Hunan Province) only affect few houses and land in the villages (residential committees) along the flood-control dike and has no serious negative effect on the productivity and living conditions in most of the affected villages (residential committees). The opinions of relocatees will be gathered widely by means of participatory planning in the affected townships (Sub-districts) and villages. According to the opinions and suggestions held by the relocatees and the situations in the affected areas, the general scheme of restoration has been established as follows, 1) In order to conform to the city development planning, affected urban residents (non-agriculture population) are resettled by means of exchanging property rights and concentrated resettlement, as well as cash compensation, in general speaking, no housing plots are arranged to them. 2) In order to maintain the current life style and social relationship, restore their productivity and income level as well as to increase their enthusiasm and adaptabilities, affected rural residents (agriculture population) are settled by means of move-back and locally resettled within their own villages. 3) In view of the production, after obtaining the compensation for young crops and ground attachments, the affected farmers will be resettled within their villager’s groups. Developing the agricultural production will be the main body of the economic rehabilitation, and the main method is the partial cultivated land adjustment in the original group with assistant developing measures of hydro-facilities improving, agricultural crop structure adjustment, low-yield farmland improving and changing the dry farmland to paddy field etc., so as to dig out potential of the existing land and ensure the food production capacity of the resettlement people. Of which, for the land adjustment with the collectively-owned land, the land compensation fee and the resettlement subsidies should be controlled and put into utilization by the villager’s group collective; for the farmers not involved in the land acquisition but included in the range of land adjustment, the resettlement subsidies should be directly paid to them. At the same time, by combining the resource situation in project affected area, direct cash compensation will be conducted in some villager’s groups. The land compensation fee should be controlled and put into utilization by the villager’s group collective, and the resettlement subsidies should be directly paid to the farmers affected by the land acquisition. The affected farmers will be engaged in other agricultural activities by use of this compensation (such as adjustment of agricultural planting structure, development of green house vegetable ), or some

115 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

non-agricultural activities (such as animal breeding), so their production and living standards will be soon rehabilitated. 5.4 Environmental Capacity Analysis The environmental capacity of resettlement area refers to the number of resettlers that an area can support and absorb with normal economic and ecological sustainability. The scope of this investigation on resettlement’s environmental capacity is based on the rehabilitation scheme that is proposed in the Resettlement Action Plan. As majority of the farmland in project areas have been cultivated by the owners, the agricultural populations who finally need rehabilitation by land have to share original land resources with residents in the host areas, and to get mutual benefit with local residents. To achieve this objective, a series of measures should be taken to increase agricultural income, such as increasing investment on agriculture, improving fertility of field, changing variety of crops, transforming low-yield fields and changing dry farm lands into paddy fields. The comparison and analysis on the change before and after land reallocation among the affected villages and groups (Table 5.4-1) indicates: the land area of the 11 affected villages will be reduced from 0.53 mu/person to 0.5 mu/person after land acquisition, with average reduction of 0.03 mu/person, 4.87% of the average land held per capita. Among the 60 groups of 11 villages affected by land acquisition, those with average farmland over 0.5 mu /person amount to 33 groups, namely Tianhetang, Huanghuaping, Tangwan, Shangtangwan, Zhangjia, Tengposhang and Xinwuli groups of Jingping Village, Yingkou Township, Youcaiyuan, Mengjia, Zhaojiashan and Siqiutian groups of Zhaojiashan Village, Xiaojichong group of Shengli Village, the 1st group of Tongxing Village, Tuoyuan Sub-district, and 20 groups of Sifangtian and Tangdi Villages, Shimen Township. There are 15 groups with their cultivated lands below 0.5mu per person but without change after land acquisition, namely Ningjia, Zhuangshang and Maojiaxi groups of Jingping Village, Yingkou Township, Shuntianqiao and Beidichong groups of Zhaojiashan Village, Xichong group of Xichong Village, Laowuchong, Tangchong and Yuchong groups of Hongxing Village, Tangjiayuan, Maoping, Liutang and Yangtianchong groups of Hutianqiao Village, and the 1st group of Xiniu Village, Tuoyuan Sub-district. Among these surplus cultivated lands of affected groups, a large number of farmlands are in low yield because of low investment, lack of management, poor soil fertility, simple crop, and incomplete irrigation facilities. Therefore by fully utilizing potential of existing farmland, it is feasible to improve the level of production and the unit yield and achieve the objective of rehabilitation. The proposed measures could include increasing investment on low yield filed, improving soil fertility, introducing high yield crops, improving cultivation system, building irrigation facilities, and reinforcing field management and other reformative measures, so that some dry land could be

116 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

converted into irrigated land, and more yield could be achieved for most remaining land. However there are 12 groups among 60 affected groups (in 11 affected villages) with their average farmland below 0.5 mu per person after land acquisition. Among them, Hutianqiao group of Hutianqiao Village, Yingkou Township has the largest reduction with 82.67% of loss, with the land holding being 0.02 mu/person; while the 6th group of Xiniu Village, Tuoyuan Sub-district has the lowest per capita land holding after land acquisition, or 0.22 mu/person, with reduction being 1.14%. The average land holding among these village groups after land acquisition are all below 0.5 mu /person, but there are 9 groups with their reduction below 10%, 1 group with its reduction between 10%~20% and 2 groups with their reduction above 20%. The main reason for such situation is that in recent years most of farmland among these villages had been acquired along with the rapid development and expansion of Huaihua City. Since for those agricultural populations who need rehabilitation by farmland, they have to share limited land resources with residents in the affected villages, the limited land holding makes it hard to guarantee mutual benefit for both resettlers and local residents. Concerning this, other related measures should be carried out to provide economic rehabilitation for those village groups with per capita farmland below 0.5 mu/person after land acquisition, which include providing cash compensation to the affected persons for other economic activities development (such as production structure adjustment, green house vegetables development) or non-agricultural economic activities development (such as animal husbandry development), so as to increase their income, as well as improve their poverty situation.

5.5 Resettlement Plan 5.5.1 Rehabilitation Plan for Livelihood Rehabilitation 5.5.1.1 Choice of Rehabilitation Method In December 2004, the resettlement team carried out the on-site investigation, optimization and demonstration with the help of City PMO and local governments. According to the practical situation and the opinions of the relocatees, different resettlement methods have been developed, including cash compensating, rebuilding with existing villages, and rehabilitation through exchanging property rights. A contract should be signed between the relocatee and the project sponsor or the land acquisition implementation agency, and the contract should include the compensation methods, the sum of the compensation fee, area and site of relocation houses, time limit of relocation, the transfer methods and the time limit of transfer etc. The relocatee has the right to choose resettlement method and resettlement locations upon their willingness. 5.5.1.2 Principle and Procedure of Selecting Resettlement Sites 1) Principles The aim of rehabilitation of housing condition is to provide the relocated households with safe, convenient and graceful living environment. The new residential areas should have good terrain and geological conditions and reliable drinking water source. The location of new residential areas should be compatible with the economic rehabilitation plan. The location of new residential areas should be convenient for production, living and management. Save land, especially the cultivated land, as much as possible. Take the future population increase into account and leave rooms for further development. The distribution of houses in the residential areas should be based on the terrain conditions and take the lighting, ventilation, sanitation and greening conditions into account. The design of houses should meet the requirements of the relocatees and their financial abilities. 2) Procedures Based on the above principles, after on-site investigation and analyzing the terrain, geological, traffic, power and water source conditions, the location of new residential area is selected after negotiation with representative of relocatee and local government, taking the relocatees’ living and production conditions into account. 5.5.1.3 Planning of Remove and Housing 139 households with 483 persons will be affected in demolition of this project, the cash compensation, exchange of property rights and move-back and scattered resettlement in existing

122 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

villages will be mainly adopted for their resettlement. (1) Exchange of Property Rights and Concentrated Resettlement According to investigation of resettlers’ will, 124 households with 407 persons who belong to Hongxing Sub-district and institutions (all the urban citizens) would like to choose exchange of property rights and concentrated resettlement, they ask for the resettlement houses that occupy the same area as the former one under the uniform arrangement of the government. According to the principle of ‘unified planning, unified design, unified distribution, unified management and unified construction’, the Project Executive agency and Implementation agency of land acquisition and house demolition will cooperate with local government to decide and develop new concentrated resettlement sites, build the flat-type residents for resettlers’ selections. According to the on-spot investigation by Municipal PMO and Resettlement Design Unit, and consultation results of local governments at every level, some relevant units and resettlement representatives, the specific compensation resettlement of exchange of property rights of this project are shown in the following: a. At the early stage, the new resettlement site of exchange of property rights in this project will be set at Yinyuan Community, which is located at the east of Hecheng District, it will occupy 58 mu field by plan. The planned building density is 2.1 and aforestation coverage rate 38.1%. There will be 5 apartment buildings with 250 apartment units and 42 shop fronts with a construction area of 25,000 m2. Traffic condition, water source and electric power are easily available in the community. b. The flat type of new resident are varied: two rooms with a reception room (65 m2), two rooms with two reception rooms (80 m2), three rooms with two reception rooms (95 m2), and four rooms with two reception rooms (120 m2), equipped with kitchen and washroom; c. The standard for new houses is with uniform door and window installed, uniform external walls decorated, as well as cement ground, putty inner wall, and sufficient water and power supply; d. If the replaced building area by exchange of property rights is not the same as the building area of the demolition house, the calculation of price difference won’t be conducted: if the replaced building area is smaller than the former building area, the compensation for short part will be calculated at the price of commercial housing (450 yuan/m2); if the replaced building area is larger than the former building area (the over area is smaller than the 15% of the former building area), the compensation will be calculated at the price of replacement value (345 yuan/m2), and if the replaced building area is larger than the former building area (the over area is larger than the 15% of the former building area), the compensation will be calculated at the price of commercial housing (450 yuan/m2);

e. The new houses after property rights exchanging could be sold in the market after the developer sold out of all the commercial housings developed by the developer. (2) Move-back and Scattered resettlement in existing villages The project will affect 15 households with 76 people, all of them are rural populations, including 13 households with 65 people of Shengli Village, 1 household with 6 people of Hongxing Village and 1 household with 5 people of Hutianqiao Village in Yingkou Township. In order to minimize the negative effect to the relocatees, the resettlement task team held meetings in each of the affected township (sub-district) and villages (residential committees) respectively and discussed the resettlement method with village officials and relocatee representatives. According to the relocatees’ wished and the practical situations, it was determined that 15 households with 76 people will be scatteredly resettled in their existing villages. According to the principle of ‘ unified planning, unified land acquisition and separate construction’, they will be compensated that is sufficient to build a house similar to the existing one and they are responsible to build their new house on the land arranged by the village. The land area used for rebuilding the house is within the range from 120 m2 to 150 m2 according to the regulations and standards about residential land use in existing national Land Administration Law, Implementation Methods for Land Administration of Hunan Province and Compensation Methods for Land Acquisition and Demolition in Huaihua City. According to the villagers’ opinion, the practical situations and the principle of ‘ Convenient for production and easy to live’, each village should provide necessary assistance during the process of house reconstruction and relocation. A total of 2 housing sites in three affected villages along the project area will be provided to resettle 15 households with 76 people. According to the standard of using the land, the standard of resettlement compensation and local custom, this project team designed two types of house for the resettlers as reference. To rebuild their houses, the resettlers can follow the design or design their house by themselves according to their wishes and economic situations. The details of house examples are shown in attached Figure 3. The demolition and resettlement planning of the project area are shown in Table 5.5-1

5.5.1.4 Infrastructure and Public Facilities 1) Move-back and Scattered Resettlement in Existing Villages There is no special planning since the resettlement by means of move-back and resettle locally can rely on existing infrastructures and social service systems. For affected local infrastructure facilities, in addition to provide compensation and restore them to original conditions and functions, the local governments could also, according to the local economic situation and the principle of ‘Convenient for production and easy to live’, reasonably improve the facilities in the resettlement areas by providing additional funding or increasing the investment, making overall arrangement and constructing at the same time. 2) Exchange of Property Rights and Concentrated Resettlement 124 households with 407 people are to be resettled in Yinyuan Community, and the resettlement site (including the plan of infrastructures) will be designed by relevant department. 5.5.1.5 Assistance in Resettlement Process The land acquisition and resettlement implementation agency will be responsible for assisting resettlers at every aspect during the entire process of the resettlement: 1) Understand and try to satisfy the resettlers’ needs before the resettlement. 2) Help the resettlers dealing with their troubles such as arranging the vehicles and assisting the remove during the process of resettlement. 3) Try to realize the resettlers’ comfort and discomfort and try to solve their difficulties in time after the resettlement.

5.5.2 Economic Rehabilitation Planning for Resettlers 5.5.2.1 Economic Rehabilitation Objective for Resettlers The reconstruction and rehabilitation of production and livelihood is the key standard to judge the feasibility of resettlement. Take the income of agriculture as an example, it will be different in varied regions, in order to ensure that the livelihood of resettlers will not decrease, the rehabilitation and improvement of resettlers’ current net income per capita as the objective of resettlement planning. In December of 2004, with the assistance of city PMO and government at each level, the resettlement design unit investigated the affected farmers on their household properties, income and expenditure conditions, and listed the information household by household. According to the analysis on the income and expenses of agricultural family, in 2003, the annual net income in project area is 2341 yuan. During 2001~2003, the mean annual growth rate in rural area is 4.3%. The resettlement implantation plan of the project will be launched in 2005, and the net income standard for villager resettlers is 2547 yuan in 2005. In order to guarantee that the resettlers will reach or exceed their former living standard after relocation, the net income per capita must reach or exceed 2547 yuan. 5.5.2.2 Economic Rehabilitation Standard According to the agricultural means of production status and local agricultural production level in project area, the input and output level analysis has been conducted for the economic rehabilitation for resettlers in project area. The economic rehabilitation standard determined unitiedly is: in the group, re-allocate and adjust the cultivated land according to the remaining cultivated land per capita in the group after land acquisition; The cultivated land adjustment out of the group and in the village will be determined according to the current level of cultivated land per capita. The vegetable greenhouse will be developed at the standard of 1 greenhouse per person (viz.0.25mu/person); the development of livestock breeding will be determined according to the loss of affected person’s land. 5.5.2.3 Economic Rehabilitation Planning for Resettler In December of 2004, the resettlement design unit and the municipal PMO, together with the relevant department, conducted the on site survey on the project affected land, water surface, and other natural resources. In the course of resettlement planning and project impact investigation, the consultation meeting with the project affected township (sub-district), village cadre, and some resettler representatives have been held, and the economic rehabilitation schemes for resettlers was discussed. Through the analysis on the geographic position, land resources ownership, income structure of

126 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

local residents, and based on the extensive consultation with the resettlers, the overall economic rehabilitation scheme was developed as follows: in-group adjust cultivated land for 155.83 mu, and resettle 364 persons; develop the greenhouse vegetable for 29.5 mu, and resettle 118 persons; develop second and tertiary industries for 106 persons resettlement.

7th 4 4 5.4 4 1) Adjust Cultivated Land in Groups According to survey, 47 villager’s groups affected by project in project area would like to choose the economic rehabilitation mode of re-allocate the cultivated land in the group. The land

128 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

resources in these villages and groups are usually abundant. The cultivated land per capita after land acquisition is between 0.5 mu per capita and 1.05 mu percapita. The affected villagers are accustomed to make a living on the farmland, and lack other skills of making a living; they would like to keep their traditional production mode and means of living. In the overall project planning, there are 155.83 mu cultivated land will be adjusted within the villager’s group for 588 resettlers. After adjustment of cultivated land, the cultivated land per person in this group will be less. In order to keep relocatees’ living level developing as other villagers’, it is necessary to develop fully the latent capacity of the remaining cultivated land, to insist the principle that is called that “exchanging quality for quantity”, and to enhance the yield and output value of the remaining cultivated land. For the remaining cultivated land in the project area is located along the river, where flood often indulge in wilful persecution, the actual output is low, after project implementation, the flood control standard should be promoted, in this project, together with the implementation of agricultural structure adjustment item, some agricultural technicians shall be hired to strengthen the agricultural technique training of rural relocatees and to guide them to fulfil the measures of “improving low yield land, changing dry farmland into paddy field”, rightly to enhance the elemental area output value and the cultivated land capacity, so as to fully and well rehabilitate the relocatees in this village with cultivated land adjustment in this villager’ s group. 2) Development of Green House Vegetable In the project-affected scope, there are 6 villager’s groups with less cultivated land acquisition and no any household will totallylose his lands. According to the selection of most relocatees, in these groups the affected families shall be rehabilitated with cash compensation but not cultivated land adjustment. The affected families will use the compensation fee to develop green house vegetable, which can meet the urban residents’ requirement for vegetable in Huaihua City and also well engagee the relocatee’s in production to increase their income. In the general project planning, there are 29.5 mu land for developing the counter season and nuisance free green house vegetables, and 118 relocatees will be resettled. 3) Development of Second and Tertiary Industries According to investigation, 7 groups in Hongtianqiao Village, Xiniu Village and Tongxing Village have little residual cultivated land, and it is impossible to conduct adjustment in group there (even in village). As the short distance away from Hecheng District, and high enthusiasm for second and tertiary industries in the 7 groups, 106 persons in this area will be resettled by the means of development of second and tertiary industries. As the resettlement scheme of the project area is determined in terms of the opinions of most resettlers, maybe individual resettlers will disagree with the resettlement scheme of their village

129 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

and group, and other modes shall be adopted, the PMO will try best to coordinate and settle the problems. If the resettlers have their own approaches for revenues, namely, they have fixed operation sites in other places, applicable operation skills and production equipment, or relatively steady income resources, as well as they accept cash compensation and they want to find jobs by themselves, after the EA verifies if they completely meet the self-employed conditions, and they sign the resettlement agreement, receive the notarial certificate and go through other procedures during the project implementation process, the resettlement subsidies will be directly paid to the self-employed persons. For the groups and villages need cash compensation, if individual resettlers want to undertake agricultural production, the EA will help them obtain land, and continue agricultural production. 5.5.2.4 Investment of Economic Rehabilitation 1) Cultivated Land Readjustment In the project, paid-for land readjustment should be carried out in allocating cultivated land. According to the plan, a total of 155.83 mu of paddy fields will be allocated, and the cost for such land readjustment will be RMB 2.7724 million yuan based on RMB 17791 yuan per mu of unit compensation rate for paddy adopted for the in the project. 2) Development of Green House Vegetables After land readjustment, due to reduction of farmland, compensation funds of land should be used and measures of production and development such as improving cultivated structure, strengthening the management in fields to recuperate the loss from losing part of cultivated land. According to the analysis of cost for green house development, each green house will occupy about 0.25 mu of farmland, and 4 green houses will be needed for developing each mu of green house vegetable field. Based on unit cost of RMB 6,652 yuan per each green house, the average cost of RMB 26,608 yuan of investment will be needed in order to change each mu of paddy field into green house vegetable field. (Table 5.5-3 shows the information in detail). TABLE 5.5-3 Analysis of Investment Unit Price in Changing Paddy Field into Vegetable Plastic shed

5.5.2.5 Balance between Land Compensation Fee and Economic Rehabilitation Investment According to the relative resettlement articles: “ The land compensation and resettlement subsidies, is used by the institutions with land acquired, for production rehabilitation and development, and arranging the employment for the surplus labor forces caused by the land acquisition, livelihood subsidies for people incapable for work. It can also be contracted to the county (city) and be unitedly allocated by the county (city) for land development, production and livelihood resettlement for resettlers. But these special funds must be used for the specific purpose. The funds shall not be privately shared or used for other purposes.” In case that the land compensation and resettlement subsidies can not meet the requirements of production and resettlement, the resettlement subsidies can be increased according to the situation. Therefore, the land compensation fee and resettlement subsidies, as the only fund resource of the resettlers’

131 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

production and resettlement, must be equal to or a little more than the total investment of economic rehabilitation. According to the economic rehabilitation plan, the required economic rehabilitation population in this project is 588. The investment for production development project is RMB 4.0873 million yuan in total (See 5.5-4 for details). The permanent collective land acquisition compensation fee in the project area is RMB 4.1473 million yuan in total, 60,000 yuan more than the required investment for economic rehabilitation of agricultural population, a little more than required investment for other economic rehabilitation. This indicates that the land compensation standard is considerably suitable, and can meet the fund requirement of economic rehabilitation. The fund margins can be unitedly used for continuous development by each village group, such as launching village-owned enterprises, land resources development and used as fund investment for other projects as improving low-yield farmland and converting dry farmland to paddy fields, etc., to ensure that the livelihood level of the resettlers reaches or exceeds their previous standard. 5.5.2.6 Forecast of Economic Income Level Resettlement production development means to combine resettlement with project construction, resource exploitation, soil and water conservation and economic development and make resettlement production reach or exceed intrinsic living condition step by step. Planning scheme of production development is brought out on the basis of natural and social economic characters of project region and collecting opinions of resettlement. Analysis of output profits of its developing items is as followings. Green house vegetables: The production cost of normal year of each green house vegetable is 1193 yuan per year (including operation cost and technical service charge) and each green house can yield 4500 kg of counter season vegetables. Each green house can add 2957.9 yuan of profit per year which is beyond the per capita pure income of 2547 yuan in project region if the profit of vegetable per kg is calculated as one yuan and cost and alternative land profit are deducted (the alternative land profit is 318.84 yuan if the annual production value of paddy field is 1275.34 yuan per mu and each green house occupies 0.25 mu). 5.5.2.7 Rehabilitation Measures for Resettlees’ Economic Income The project implementation agency will offer help and support to the resettlees as much as possible during the whole course of resettler livelihood recovery in this project. They include 1) Distribute resettlement subsidy and help resettlees become self-employed. Any labor output project in the municipal area will give priority to the affected persons. 2) Strengthen the training of production skills for resettlers and invite experienced specialists to train the resettlers in terms of developing cultivation industry and animal husbanry

132 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

industry. 3) Give first priority to the resettlers when there is a employment opportunity for labour in the project construction. According to the design of the project construction organization, project construction will totally take up 0.4868 million working days oflabor force, and will afford some employment chances including land levelling and landscape works. Though some project tasks will be temporary, the income of these employees, according to income level surveyon the similar work in Huaihua City, will be 800~1200Yuan/month. So the local resettlers could obtain short-term incomes which will be useful to enhancing living level of affected people and restoring their income and livelihoods. 5.5.3 Resettlement Villages Planning The resettlement planning is different from village to village because of the different impact caused by project construction and difference in land requisition, resources structure, and infrastructural facilities conditions. The resettlement planning of each affected village (excluding the impact of temporary land occupation) are elaborated as follows: 5.5.3.1 Hongxing Village in Yingkou Township 1) Current State Hongxing Village, an administrative village subordinated to Yingkou Township, is located in the right bank of Taiping River, the west of the city with 1-kilometer away from the city center.

7. Public Participation and Harmonization with Residents in Relocation Sites 7.1 Public Participation Strategies According to relevant resettlement policies and national, provincial and local regulations, in order to maintain lawful rights and interests of resettlers and affected units, and to minimize complaints and dispute, detailed implementation measures of the resettlement plan will be worked out and institutional arrangement for resettlement implementation will be set up. In order to accomplish appropriate resettlement, a great deal of efforts has been made on resettlers’ participation and consultation during the phase of policy formulation, development and implementation of resettlement plan. 7.2 Approaches and Measures of Public Participation 7.2.1 Participation Approaches Before launching investigation work, we compile general work outline, hear and accept local government’s opinion for the investigation contents, approaches and requirements, etc. Local government dispatches staff to take part in investigation group and work together. During the period of investigation at large, we invite principals and representatives of township, village and group to participate in investigation work, explain the importance of the project, project benefit, project impact, compensation principle and resettlement schedule, and discuss various rehabilitation options with affected people. In the phase of resettlement planning, the resettlement staff held discussions with all levels of leaders of city, township (town, Sub-district), collected their opinions, requirements, and existent problems, and identified resettlement sites. When investigating on the spot, local mass and concerned leaders shall participate in selecting resettlement location. It is proved that the consultation is very important in identifying and selecting resettlement location with long-term potential and establishing scheme that is easy to be accepted by resettlers. 7.2.2 Participation and Consultation Measures Public participation and consultation mainly adopts two ways of consultation meeting and sample survey of resettlers’ desire. Illustrate project building purpose, content and importance to the resettler representatives and discuss the matters concerned the resettlement planning together through these manners. Through investigation, great deal of efforts shall be made on public participation and consultation opinions by design units. On basis of no prejudice to the collectivity planning principle, housing construction scheme and production rehabilitation modes should be consistent with mass opinions so that programming is in reason and resettlers are satisfied. In the stage of resettlement implementation, still adopt the ways of consultation meeting and sample

survey of resettlers’ desire, collect resettlers’ information, investigate resettlers’ desire, and perfect resettlement plan ulteriorly. To ensure that the resettlers and local government in the affected area understand the detailed information of the resettlement and compensation plan of the project, we made propaganda to the resettlers the laws and regulations on national resettlement through public participation (consultation meeting) or local media (such as TV) from the start to the implementation of resettlement plan, so resettlers will know exactly physical indices, the computing method of compensation rates and methods, resettlement measures, appropriation and utilization of the resettlement compensation and allowance, the rights of the resettlers and favorable policies, etc. A At the same time, similar information should also be disclosed to the residents in the demolition sites to make them know more about land occupation information, land compensation rates, utilization of fund and resettlement information. We disclose resettlement work to gain the support and confidence from both groups to ensure the success of resettlement work. 7.3 Public Participation in the Process of Resettlement Planning In the stages of preparation and compilation of Resettlement Plan, all levels of local government and resettlers should take part in the following items of work: 1) When surveying the land occupation for the project and demolition impact, Huaihua City project resettlement Office, resettlement design units, the investigation work is with attendance of village (residential committee) and Villagers’ groups and resettler representatives in November in 2004. In the process of Resettlement Planning, project resettlement office and resettlement design units go to every village and villagers’ group, adopt the form of holding consultation meeting with attendance of leaders of village group and resettler representatives, or discuss with resettlers randomly, and further solicit their opinions and suggestions on resettlement (including their choice of resettlement location, production rehabilitation measures, house reconstruction and compensation policies for land occupation, which are presented in Table 7.3-1. 2) Huaihua City resettlement PMO and design office successively organize and hold public meeting with attendance at all levels of local leaders and all classes of affected persons.

Before the houses are demolished, the relevant resettlement authority will consult and sign an agreement with the relocated household on the compensation standards for the houses. The consultation results will be declared publicly before the agreements are signed, so as to put the resettlement under public supervision. 2) Resettlement Locations and Method of House Reconstruction At the RP preparation stage, the relevant authority carried out survey on the resettlement sites and the method of house reconstruction. According to the results of resettlement survey, most of the affected households are willing to have their houses relocated in their own village groups and to rebuild houses by themselves. The local governments at all levels will provide assistance at different stages for house demolition. 3) Demolition of Old Houses All the relocated household will be compensated at replacement value for their old houses. Within a stipulated time limit, the relocated households can, according to their will, demolish their old houses first and then rebuild the new houses or vice-versa. The salvageable materials from the old houses can be used by the relocated households themselves. 7.4.2 Participation in Economic Rehabilitation All the villagers of every village groups should participate in the adjustment and distribution of land and start-up of other agricultural development project, especially for taking care of resettlers who have special requirements to land.

163 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

withhold and appropriate. After the compensation funds have been given to collectivity of village groups, it should be planned as a whole in order to ensure special funds for special purposes. The fund cannot be used until they have been discussed and agreed in meeting with the attendance of all group members, and be supervised by villager representative. 7.4.4 Participation in Project Construction The project construction will cause certain impacts on the local community. In order to ensure the affected persons benefit from the project construction, the local persons will be encouraged to take part in the construction, and favorable conditions will be created to use local materials and local labor force. 7.5 Women Participation From the beginning of the project, a great effort has been made on the roles that women play in the project by the implementation institution of the project and local government. Concern women and families where women are the householders and made women give full play to in the process of implementation of resettlement plan. In the affected area, women’s rights, interests and status should be the same as that of men. Women play an important role in economic development activities and housework. Especially in the village, most women stay at home, more men go into the city to find jobs. So besides family responsibility women play an important role in tilling and non-farming work. So in the area affected by the project, women will pay more attention to the project than men. They not only take part in every stage of resettlement work but also give fineness rein to the direction and method of resettlement. During the survey, all directors of all women unions in affected villages are invited to participate in order to communicate better with affected women. In the small consultation meetings, more than 40 percent of participants are female. Besides supporting the project actively, they showed that they pay more attention to the accuracy of surveyed physical indices, rationality of compensation standard and whether the compensation can reach in time, etc. In the resettlement planning stage, the resettlement design unit actively involved female resettler representatives to discuss together, accept their opinions, requirements and existing problems on production rehabilitation and house relocation. The consultation work has positive effect in reducing women’s worries on income sources, and possible change of traditional production pattern and ensure them to achieve benefits. In addition, at each level of resettlement organizations, at least one-woman cadre will be assigned, which will be instrumental in encouraging women to participate in resettlement planning and implementation. A great deal of effort will be made on the women’s impact in resettlement process,

164 Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project Resettlement Plan Hydro and Power Design Institute of Hunan Province & Ministry of Water Resources

especially the livelihood rehabilitation. In the process of implementation of the project, local government will give priority to women and provide more opportunities in the project construction. 7.6 Harmonization with the Residents in Host Communities The relocation and resettlement of the project is mainly to through purchasing new houses by themselves or centralizedly rebuilding ones. The former resettlers can choose place to buy house where they can adapt the new living environment; The latter resettlers can be harmonious with residents in relocation sites because the resettlement’s livelihood doesn’t change much and they share the common life and customary habits. Certainly, it doesn’t mean that there is no estrangement and conflict between the resettlers and former residents. In order to promote good relationships between them, the following work should be done: 1) Before demolition, resettlers and residents in the demolition sites should take part in the resettlement planning. In order to get cooperation, participation and feedback opinions from both resettlers and host communities, in the process of resettlement planning, the project management office will introduce all their rights and schemes they can choose. They can have their own choice from a number of resettlement schemes. They can consult with them directly or define through formal or informal discussions with representatives of resettlers. In most conditions, do some system arrangement such as project official hold regular meetings with local groups so that resettlers and residents in the demolition sites can show their opinions in the whole period of planning and implementation of the project. Must make effort to see that vulnerable populations express their opinions adequately. 2) Try to decrease the impact on the residents in relocation sites. There may be conflict between resettlers and residents in the demolition sites if resettlers need more land, water sources, wood land and society services, or society and houses facilities provided for resettlers succeed the level of residents in relocation sites. So in order to avoid such conflict taking place, the livelihood conditions and society services of the residents in relocation sites should be improved, at least avoid deterioration. Try to provide two groups the perfect education, water supply and medical service and create better social atmosphere for their permeation.

9. Environment Protection and Management 9.1 The Necessity of Environment Protection The environment evaluation of main body of resettlement investment project shall include the affection of resettlement to the environment. The planning of resettlement shall be conducted with environment evaluation. It is necessary to demarcate the line of resettlement area and calculate the increment of population density in unit area. In agricultural project, if the number of the immigrates is larger than the original number of this resettlement area, the aggravating environment problems will come along, such as deforestation, excessive depasturing, the water and soil loss and the pollution of the hygienic conditions etc. Therefore, appropriate eased measures (including the training of immigrates) shall be included in the resettlement planning, besides other resettlement places can also be chosen. And the urban immigrates will cause the relevant problems related to the population density (such as communication capacity, drinking-water source, hygienic system and medical & healthy treatment etc.) Constructive management methods of environment can provide both good opportunities and benefits to resettlement and the residents in the resettlement area. If the resettlement causes an unacceptable consequence, we must find another resettlement site or add the resettlement sites. 9.2 Relocation Cleaning Work All kinds of rubbish, which are produced during the demolition of varied buildings and their auxiliaries within the project range shall all be spoiled in the appointed place by the Bureau of Environmental Hygiene Management of Huaihua city. The houses and their auxiliaries in the engineering range shall be demolished; their walls shall be torn down and leveled. And the interior pollution source within the project range shall be removed and disinfected. The existing wastewater of industrial enterprises within the project range shall be drained according to specifications. Poisonous slag shall be delivered to the appointed place and buried. And the stock house for stocking the chemical material shall be treated by poison elimination and neutralisation, so that the soil can meet the hygiene standard. 9.3 The Environment Management of the Resettlement Site The environment protection shall be fully considered during the designing and construction of resettlement area, we shall try our best to make the surroundings beautiful and comfortable. 1) Level the land of the cutting faces when excavating the new soil, and set up drainage ditches on the cutting faces when necessary to reduce the water scouring to the cutting faces; the waste area shall be forested as soon as possible so as to avoid the water and soil loss; houses and public facilities shall be constructed with the least damage to the forestry vegetation; and trees shall be planted on

Appendix 1: Resettlement Information Manual 1. Project Background The areas in Hunan Province, which are brought into this urban flood control project, are limited to the cities above county grade in hilly sections with relatively serious flood disaster. All the cities are considered as the areas with developed economy, dense population and centralized wealth. If the cities are submerged, the loss will be great, and the economic development will be supportless. At present, the urban flood control standard in the project area is low. Flood disaster happens in successive years, seriously restricts the urban economic development and affects the live and property safety of urban people. For Huaihua City, as the sub-project city of the urban flood control project under ADB loans, its flood and waterlogging control capacity can be absolutely improved through the project implementation. The flood control standard will be enhanced from the current 5-year occurrence to 20-year occurrence; and the waterlogging control will be enhanced from the current 3-year occurrence to 10-year occurrence. That can greatly reduce the urban flood control burden of Huaihua City and benefit the normal social development. The main engineering measures involved in land acquisition and relocation of Huaihua City Urban Flood Control Project are: reinforcing and new-building of embankment, re-new, reconstruction and new-building of culvert sluices and power allocation station, and there also is temporary land acquisition as project construction site and borrow area, etc. The NoRevert areas in the project land acquisition, with the residents’ production and living seriously affected by the project construction, are considered as the affected range of the project land acquisition and relocation.
