INTRODUCTION AND PROJECT BACKGROUND 1. The proposed Eastern Sichuan Roads Development Project includes the construction of (i) a 138 kilometers (km) expressway from Dazhou City to the Shaanxi border, (ii) 10 link roads with a length of 28 km, and (iii) a local road upgrading component comprising 30 sections with a total length of 402 km of township to village roads. One Resettlement Plan (RP) covers the expressway and related link roads, interchanges, toll stations, and service areas. This short RP covers the local road upgrading. The local road upgrading is an annual program; each year, a number of sections will have designs prepared and upgrading implemented based on this annual program. Prior to commencement of each annual upgrading program, Sichuan Provincial Communications Department (SPCD) will update this RP based on detailed design and measurement survey for those sections to be upgraded that year. The revised RP will be disclosed to APs and submitted to ADB for approval prior to commencement of civil works. 2. Local Road Upgrading. About 402 km of local roads were identified by SPCD from the local government’s Rural Road Development Plan. Of the selected 30 projects, 18 roads are Class III and 12 roads are Class IV (see Figure 1 and Table 1). All are existing local roads which will be upgraded from asphalt or gravel roads to concrete roads; the width of the road will be the same standard and no new bridges are required. The total cost is estimated to be CNY210.5 million. These local roads will be entirely financed by local government. Table 1 shows the proposed local roads grouped by county.

All of the 402 km of local road improvements involves only pavement of the existing asphalt or gravel roads with the existing alignments. According to the guidance about rural roads construction from the Ministry of Communications, construction of rural roads shall not occupy or occupy land as little as possible. 5. For 2006–2007, three local roads were upgraded. The design and upgrading work showed that there were no permanent land acquisition, no temporary land occupation and no impacts on houses (see Table 4). 6. Between 2007 and 2008, there are 14 local roads to be upgraded. The 14 local roads to be upgraded have been approved as upgrading projects by the Sichuan Provincial Development and Reform Commission. SPCD has included them in the annual subsidy plan. The design work has completed. The guidance from the Ministry of Communications about no land or less land was met. The Dazhou Minicipal Land and Resource Bureau reviewed the land use procedures of the 2 upgrading projects, the review conclusion shows that there is no permanent and temporary land acquisition of the 14 roads to be upgraded (pavement and upgrading), and no impact to any building (See Table 4). 7. The employer committee composed by the representatives of villagers is responsible for organization and implementation of local roads upgrading. The villager committee is responsible for coordination. In this way, villager's opinion will be listened as much as possible and the benefits of the affected people will be protected. If the temporary land use is necessary, the villager committee will coordinate for all the use of wasteland.

There is no land acquisition for the 14 local road upgrading. The pavement of the existing road will be upgraded. Thus there aren’t people who will be affected by loss of land and whose livelihood will not be affected, too. In addition, there is no need to dismantle any living house, as a result, there are any people who need be resettled. III. LEGAL FRAMEWORK AND RESETTLEMENT POLICY A. General 9. The preparation and implementation of resettlement for this Project shall follow the Laws and Regulations promulgated by the PRC and Sichuan Province, and also meet the requirements of ADB’s Involuntary Resettlement Policy. The Dazhou Land and Resource Bureau reviewed the land use procedures of the 14 roads to be upgraded in 2007-2008, Although there isn’t land acquisition, the compensation standards and resettlement measures as same as that of the expressway will be adopted for the local road upgrading.
