1 Executive Summary
1.1Project Description
Hubei Enshi Qing River Upstream Environment Rehabilitation Project (HEQRUERP) includes 4 components which comprise engineering works as well as non-structural measures: (i) improved pollution control at Enshi and Lichuan Cities; (ii) enhanced flood management; (iii) improved capacity of wastewater management; and (iv) strengthened project management capacity. The project covers Enshi and Lichuan Cities of Hubei Province. The sub-project implementation units are shown in Table 1-1.
Table 1-1 Cities and Components
City Implementation Unit Enshi Enshi Urban Construction and Investment Co. Ltd.
Lichuan Lichuan Liangli Urban Construction & Development Co. Ltd.
Due to changes in local development plans and actual construction conditions, the local project office and implementing agency proposed some scope and design changes during the mid-term adjustment of the project in 2019. The resettlement plan was mainly about the update in Enshi Project. The main content of the resettlement plan for the Enshi Subproject is the redesigned acquisition of the remaining 126 mu of land in the Daishui River Subproject, and the remaining temporary land occupation. The update report of “Resettlement Plan for the Re-designed Subprojects in Enshi Qing River Upstream Environment Rehabilitation Project” was completed in December 2019 and was approved by ADB.
After the adjustment in Lichuan Project, 56 mu of land acquisition has been reduced, which has affected 65 fewer people and 4 fewer households by house demolished. For Lichuan, since the changes are the application, it is unlikely to cause new social, ethnic, and gender impacts. The impact on land acquisition and house demolition is also small.

1.2 Resettlement Policy and Framework
The RP is in accordance with The Law of Land Administration of the People’s Republic of China (2004), the State Council's Decision on Deepening the Reform of Land Management (GF [2004] No.28) and other laws and regulations, as well as relevant policies on land acquisition, resettlement in Enshi city, Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture, Hubei Province and ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (June, 2009).
According to the above policies, and in consultation with local governments and affected persons (APs), the resettlement principles of the Project are: 1) Screen the project early on to identify past, present, and future involuntary resettlement impacts and risks. Determine the scope of resettlement planning through a survey and/or census of displaced persons, including a gender analysis, specifically related to resettlement impacts and risks. 2) Carry out meaningful consultations with affected persons, host communities, and concerned nongovernment organizations. Inform all displaced persons of their entitlements and resettlement options. Ensure their participation in planning, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation of resettlement programs. Pay particular attention to the needs of vulnerable groups, especially those below the poverty line, the landless, the elderly, women and children, and Indigenous Peoples, and those without legal title to land, and ensure their participation in consultations. Establish a grievance redress mechanism to receive and facilitate resolution of the affected persons’ concerns. Support the social and cultural institutions of displaced persons and their host population. Where involuntary resettlement impacts and risks are highly complex and sensitive, compensation and resettlement decisions should be preceded by a social preparation phase. 3) Improve, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all displaced persons through (i) land-based resettlement strategies when affected livelihoods are land based where possible or cash compensation at replacement value for land when the loss of land does not undermine livelihoods, (ii) prompt replacement of assets with access to assets of equal or higher value, (iii) prompt compensation at full replacement cost for assets that cannot be restored, and (iv) additional revenues and services through benefit sharing schemes where possible. 4) Provide physically and economically displaced persons with needed assistance, including the following: (i) if there is relocation, secured tenure to relocation land, better housing at resettlement sites with comparable access to employment and production opportunities, integration of resettled persons economically and socially into their host communities, and extension of project benefits to host communities; (ii) transitional support and development assistance, such as land development, credit facilities, training, or employment opportunities; and (iii) civic infrastructure and community services, as required. 5) Improve the standards of living of the displaced poor and other vulnerable groups, including women, to at least national minimum standards. In rural areas provide them with legal and affordable access to land and resources, and in urban areas provide them with appropriate income sources and legal and affordable access to adequate housing. 6) Develop procedures in a transparent, consistent, and equitable manner if land acquisition is through negotiated settlement to
2 ensure that those people who enter into negotiated settlements will maintain the same or better income and livelihood status. Ensure that displaced persons without titles to land or any recognizable legal rights to land are eligible for resettlement assistance and compensation for loss of nonland assets. 8) Prepare a resettlement plan elaborating on displaced persons’ entitlements, the income and livelihood restoration strategy, institutional arrangements, monitoring and reporting framework, budget, and time-bound implementation schedule. 9) Disclose a draft resettlement plan, including documentation of the consultation process in a timely manner, before project appraisal, in an accessible place and a form and language(s) understandable to affected persons and other stakeholders. Disclose the final resettlement plan and its updates to affected persons and other stakeholders. 10) Conceive and execute involuntary resettlement as part of a development project or program. Include the full costs of resettlement in the presentation of project’s costs and benefits. For a project with significant involuntary resettlement impacts, consider implementing the involuntary resettlement component of the project as a stand-alone operation. 11) Pay compensation and provide other resettlement entitlements before physical or economic displacement. Implement the resettlement plan under close supervision throughout project implementation. 12) Monitor and assess resettlement outcomes, their impacts on the standards of living of displaced persons, and whether the objectives of the resettlement plan have been achieved by taking into account the baseline conditions and the results of resettlement monitoring. Disclose monitoring reports.The land acquisition compensation includes land compensation fee, resettlement subsidies, and compensation for young crops. The compensation standards are calculated at the region-based comprehensive land price regulated by the Hubei provincial policy. These prices have been assessed as equivalent to replacement value of the affected land.
All houses will be compensated at the replacement price, including compensation for buildings, attachments and others. The compensation price will be evaluated and confirmed by the affected persons. The households which choose property right exchange are according to the evaluation of the main architecture of the legal area, and exchange with new resettlement houses.
The compensation for young crops, trees and other facilities will be directly paid to the affected persons.
The duration of temporary land occupation usually lasts 2~3 months, which will be compensated for a minimum of 6 months or the actual period if longer. The construction contractor is responsible for land reclamation and the according budget is listed into the construction cost.
1.3 Progress of Resettlement Implementation

2.4 Income Restoration
By 31st December, 2019, the people affected by land acquisition all had received land compensation. They usually invested the money in trade, transportation, and restaurants. Their income have not decreased, and income levels have increased due to more employment opportunities..
The compensation method was monetary compensation during the land acquisition of the 1st entry road of Dashaba WWTP. After getting compensation, the affected households had priority to get employed by this project and obtain training opportunities, could get engaged in non-agricultural work in the vicinity. According to the survey, the project area was close to the Enshi Economic Development Zone and a large number of affected villagers could find jobs in the development zone. 2.5 Houses Relocation
By 30th June, 2019, 8 households are affected by house demolition and on the transition stage. They all have more than two houses. The original resettlement site is Xiaolongtan Community. Because the construction of this district is lagging behind, the resettlement sites are planned to be adjusted to Caijiahe resettlement area. The house demolition can be seen in Table 2-12.
The resettlement of 8 households is expected to be completed by the end of 2020. Due to the epidemic, the house type and area will be included in the next report.

Enshi City has issued such documents as "the plan of fighting against poverty in 2019" and "achieving the goal of "Two Needs and Three Guarantees"("two needs" means not worrying about food and clothing, and "three guarantees" means compulsory education, basic medical treatment and housing security). Specific measures include solving the problem of safe drinking water for rural residents in the city, rebuilding dangerous houses, strengthening infrastructure construction such as electric power, communication (4G, optical fiber broadband), and promoting collective economic development and so on.

Time: 30th January, 2018, Enshi City ADB Office, Director Li; Dashaba WWTP construction site, Manager Chen Li
Director Li: Because there are many problems existing in design scheme, great changes occurred during the construction process. We employed a design representative to communicate with the design company, but the representative cannot solve the problem on the spot. The land acquisition of Hongmiao WWTP has not been started. EC06 has been changed as an internal supporting project and the needed funds of 76,580,000 yuan have been raised, and this project has been finished. EC07, EC08 and others contract packages have not invited tenders yet. The land acquisition of Gaoqiao river pumping station maintains unchanged, and the responsible company (Enshi City Investment and Construction Company) has not been changed. Three supplies and one leveling of Dashaba WWTP has been finished 50%. Another 40 mu of land of Tanjiaba village has been acquired for building 1st entry road of Dashaba WWTP, and no houses need to be demolished.

Because the karst cave was found during the construction of the earth-retaining wall, the original design scheme should be changed and the reply was not received. We employed a qualified assessment unit to investigate nearby residents and have written reports. If construction (such as blasting) causes losses to residents, we will make corresponding compensation to them.

3.4 Income Restoration
By 31st December, 2019, the income of affected people mainly came from working as migrant labor and opening their own business. Because Lichuan WWTP is close a scenic spot, these affected people can get jobs easily.
3.5 Houses Relocation
The affected households asked the government to give them homesteads because they did not like to live in tall buildings. But the government did not agree to give them homesteads. Finally, through negotiation between the two parties, monetary settlement was adopted. The affected households are now housed in Minxin Garden in the downtown area of Lichuan. Minxin Garden is an exemplary high-rise resettlement site in Lichuan. It is located at the junction of Tenglong Avenue and Binjiang North Road, and covers 25.5 mu of land. It is built by Lichuan City for the resettlement of land-lost households in the process of land acquisition. The transportation service facilities are complete. Each household are allocated 30 square meters of facade houses for solving income problem.
3.6 Infrastructure Restoration
By 31st December, 2019, infrastructure operated normally.
3.7 Budget and Fund for Resettlement
Funds for land acquisition and resettlement are raised by the fiscal department of Lichuan City. The LAR funds can meet the needs of land acquisition and house demolition for the Project now. By 31st December, 2019, the fiscal department of Lichuan City had paid CNY 33.2639 million yuan in total for land acquisition and resettlement, accounting for 51.39% of the total resettlement budget.

For example, according to "Rain and Dew Plan", a living allowance of 1,000 yuan per year will be provided to pupils from poor families, 1,250 yuan per year to junior middle school students, 5,000 yuan per year to secondary school students and 5,000 yuan per year to vocational and technical college students; poor households only pay 110 yuan per year (half of the normal standard), low-income households are exempt from medical insurance fees, and students over 16 years old only need to pay 100 yuan per year for medical insurance; in the reconstruction of dangerous housing, the government subsidizes 25 square meters per person, and 12,000 yuan per household for repairing houses. The government gave a mobile phone to each poor household (worth about 400 yuan), and each poor household only need to pay 100 yuan for telephone charges.
Enshi Prefecture Human and Social Affairs Bureau and other departments regularly publish “recruitment information for precise poverty alleviation ", and they also screen and recommend jobs for those who have employment aspirations and employability, and actively help them contact employers to help poor families achieve employment and poverty alleviation. Lichuan City implements the policy formulated by the Party’s Central Committee, and tries to achieve the goal of "Two Needs and Three Guarantees"("two needs" means not worrying about food and clothing, and "three guarantees" means compulsory education, basic medical treatment and housing security).

There are 90 poor households with 262 people in the village, 70% of them are Tujia minority. Most of them have been lifted out of poverty. There are 40 remaining poor households. Precise poverty alleviation policies include "five batches", "six precisions", "eight village-to-households" and "five ones". For example, in education, a living allowance of 1,000 yuan per year will be provided to pupils from poor families, 1,250 yuan per year to junior middle school students, 5,000 yuan per year to secondary school students and 5,000 yuan per year to vocational and technical college students, which is also called "Rain and Dew Program". Seven households need to relocate in different places, and all have been relocated. The government subsidized 25 square meters per person. Social security covered disabled, low-income and five-income households. Rural cooperative medical system was inclined to poor households. Poor households only pay 110 yuan per year (half of the normal standard), low-income households are exempt from medical insurance fees, and students over 16 years old only need to pay 100 yuan per year for medical insurance.

Time: 17th July, 2019, Lichuan City ADB Office, Director Zheng
The project in Sandaohe and Huilonggou are under construction, and the compensation has been
64 paid to the affected households. 90% of Sandaohe and Huilonggou project construction has been completed. The Qing River project has been completed 30%. Because it's not a permanent building, there is no land use formality for ecological projects. The fund of PPP project has been changed, and the EA has not changed.
Time: 16th July, 2019, Vice Mayor of Lichuan City
We have provided three resettlement sites for demolition households. 11 households with 30 persons affected by house demolition of Lichuan WWTP were resettled in Minxin Garden, which was a star residential area. The compensation policy is 1:1.2, for example, if the demolished house area of an affected household was 500 m2, the household would gain 600 m2 of resettlement area. Each household has three to four suite houses. We have also set up 30 square meters of facade houses for each household to solve their income problem.
Time: 20th February, 2019, Lichuan City ADB Office, Director Zheng
The design provided by the design institute was not ideal, involving too much demolition and resettlement. All the affected households were satisfied with the compensation. According to the new plan, more than 80 houses needed to be demolished next.
Time: 20th February, 2019, Shuangjing village committee, Liangwu Town, Secretary Mou Fangtie
About 1000 mu of land was acquired by Qingjiang Project, involving more than 400 households in 10 groups5. The land was surveyed in July 2018 and the survey results had been made public. The compensation standard was 50,000 yuan per mu of land, the compensation for crops was 2,000 yuan per mu, the attachment fee was 2,000 yuan per mu, the standard of bonus was 5% of land compensation, and the total compensation standard was 54,500 yuan per mu, and no percentage was left in the village. There were 535 households with 2220 people in this village, and 70% of which were Tujia minority. The cultivated land was 1916 mu and the woodland was 5300 mu. State-owned land was 3000 mu, 1.5 mu per person in average. The land was national, so cooperating with land acquisition was to support national development. Concerning the development plan of the village, the village belonged to the control area and the town planning area, so the long-term agricultural investment would not be allowed to build.

With regard to the progress of land acquisition, the land in Datang Village and Muzhan Village of Duting Town had been acquired. The compensation had been paid to the affected households in Datang Village, and the compensation for the affected households in Muzhan Village was in preparation. 10 affected households in Dayan Village of Liangwu Town had not signed the land acquisition agreements, and seven or eight affected households in Laohe Village of Liangwu Town had not signed the land acquisition agreements, which will be completed this week.
Time: 30th January, 2018, Lichuan City ADB Office, Director Ren of Lichuan PMO, Director Luo Jisheng of Guandong Community, Group director Zeng Dexiang, and Liu Xianhe of National Tax Bureau
Director Ren: The decoration works of the resettlement building located in Shanmu Village are blocked and the building has not been delivered because there is a dispute about the amount of money between the developer and the government, and the government is negotiating with the developer now. The problem that the lack of funds affects the project progress still exists. The affected households do not like live in tall buildings, they adopted the monetary resettlement after negotiating with the government. The affected households usually have old houses, in which old family members can live, and young family members work in other cities, or the affected households also can use compensation to repair the old houses, so the house demolition has affected their residence little. The 7 houses (11 households with 30 persons) affected by the land acquisition of Lichuan WWTP have been demolished after these affected households signed the compensation agreements, and they chose the monetary compensation and the compensation fee had been paid. Only one grave remains to be moved in the zone of Lichuan WWTP, and PMO has not reached an agreement with the affected household (Luo Xianqing). The reconstruction of the pumping station in the old town (LC02) has not been started yet; there is no demolition and resettlement involved in the subproject of sewage pipe network in county district (LC03). The river bank is too large to be managed efficiently. The land on the bank was allocated to the villagers, and the land use certificates were also issued to them. The villagers planted trees and pitched tent. We employed a surveying and mapping company to measure the land while inviting the village cadres to witness and videotaping the measuring process, and will pay the villagers compensation fee according to the measurement result and related policies after the Spring Festival. When the Spring Festival ends, the dredging project and the temporary land acquisition will be carried out at the same time. All river regulation projects have not yet begun. The land acquisition of other projects has not been started yet.

The Land Bureau has issued an announcement of land acquisition (the affected village is the Longtan Village) of No. five pump station project, and the land acquisition of this project will affect 90 households and 367 low-income people. The government has issued the relevant policy to take targeted measures in poverty alleviation. The compensation standard is 50000 yuan per mu of farmland during the land acquisition, and the compensation standard for housing demolition should be based on the structure of the house. The main ways to recover income include working in other cities, opening their own business and etc. At present, a total of 3,960,000 yuan of compensation fee has been paid to the affected households. The villagers asked compensation for young crops again and this problem has been resolved.
Director Luo Jisheng of Guandong Community and Group director Zeng Dexiang: 7 houses of 11 households (about 3 people per household) affected by Lichuan WWTP have been completely demolished. In 2017, the housing area and structure of the last group of affected households were evaluated. They signed the agreements according to the evaluation price, and the last agreement was signed in September 31st, 2017. All the affected households were satisfied with the compensation standard, or they would not sign the agreements. The compensation fee had also been paid. These affected households have other houses to live in. Only one grave remains to be moved in the zone of Lichuan WWTP, and we have not negotiated with the affected household (Luo Xianqing) by now. There are 130 households in No. 3 group of Guandong village, and they all have no farmland. The 60-year- old person can get an allowance of 70 yuan per month and the peasant insurance of 280 yuan per month, and the young people go out to work, and they can earn 2500-3000 yuan per month in Lichuan City. There are 238 households with 687 people in Guandong Community, and there are 100 households with 400 people in No. 4 group of Guandong Community, and the Tujia nationality accounted for more than 50%. With the policy of accurate poverty alleviation, the low-income households can get a subsidy of about 200-300 yuan per month. The affected villagers have no land, and the income source mainly includes the demolition compensation and working in other place. The high school students of Tujia nationality can enjoy the policy of adding scores when they are enrolled in the ethic colleges and universities.
Liu Xianhe of National Tax Bureau (poverty alleviation cadres): We have created the files for the 13 low-income households in No. 3 group of Guandong Community. 1 household with 1 people have died, and the other 12 households will get out of poverty in 2018. We come here to implement the policy of poverty alleviation. The policies of poverty alleviation include education subsidies, disease medical insurance, entrepreneurial subsidies and basic living allowances. There are 44 low-income households with 105 people in Guandong Community now, and they all will get out of poverty in 2018. The effect of the implementation of poverty alleviation policy is as follows: 12 households with 41 people got out of poverty in 2014; 24 households with 83 people got out of poverty in 2015; 14
67 households with 21 people got out of poverty in 2016; 5 households with 19 people got out of poverty in 2017.
Time: 6th July, 2017, Lichuan City ADB Office, Director Ren of Lichuan PMO; Secretary Zhengdaochao and Vice-director He Zhonghao of Guandong Community
Director Ren: In the construction range of Lichuan WWTP, 7 buildings involving 11 households and 30 persons need to be demolished. 7 households have signed the agreements and their houses have been demolished, and the rest 4 households have not reached agreement with ADB PMO because they want more compensation than the standard established by government. Land acquisition area has not increased. The total floor area of 7 households signed the agreements are 1176.87 m2 and the land area of their house base are 482.78 m2. Housing demolition work planned to be completed at the end of June, and now planned to be completed at the end of August. 7 households signed the agreements chose monetary compensation, and their houses have been demolished. The house of the last household was demolished in April 11th. 1 household’s house was demolished in March, and 6 households’ houses were demolished in April. There is corresponding support standards of government to help the vulnerable groups and needy families. The bidding document of Lichuan WWTP has been ready, and the tendering of WWTP project will be completed before September 30th, and the contract will be signed in November 1st. The land acquisition and resettlement of sewage pipe network and pump transformation in the old district is progressing smoothly; the pipe network in new district doesn’t involve land acquisition and resettlement; the mud piling caused by dredging work need acquiring land temporarily, and the river runs through two townships. The main problems existing are: (1) there is a gap between the government standard and the expectation of the rest 4 households; (2) the villagers want the home base replacement rather than high-rise apartment resettlement; (3) 4 households did not sign the agreement; (4) the tendering progress is a bit slow.
Secretary Zheng Daochao et al: The houses of resettlers are assessed by one house per day. The resettlers voted to chosse Laifengxinmao Co. Ltd. for assessing the value of housing and this company first measured the houses in 2016. At the time of the assessment, all the resettlers were present and signed the results of the evaluation, and they signed the compensation agreements according to the evaluation result. 3 households (Xiong Daoquan, Ju Guanghua and Ju Yaofang) did not sign the agreements because of the problem of red line map. The problem of red line map has been solved, and which households need to be resettled has been determined, and now 3 additional households (Zeng Ming, Zeng Xiaoning and Zeng Xiaorong) are needed to be resettled. The implementation of the demolition work has been transmitted to the urban management department, and will be finished in October. 7 households chose currency compensation because they owned other houses in Lichuan city, and 2 households chose high-rise apartment resettlement.

There are 34017 people in the Guandong Community, 70% are Tujia ethnic minority, 8.64 square kilometers, and more than 200 are Party members. The community does not have direct income, and previously relied on the rent. The villagers' income sources include operating shops, doing business, migrant working and so on. Their land has been acquired and the community belongs to the village in the city. There are no large enterprises in the community, and the per capita income of the villagers is about 2000 yuan per month, and more than 90% of the people have things to do. There are 39 households with 97 persons belongs to poor households or low income households.

The subsidy standard for Five-guarantees family is 400-500 yuan per month, and the subsidy standard for the low insured is 200-300 yuan per month, and the funds come from the central government funding. The main problems that the demolition work faces are: (1) that it is necessary to meet the villagers frequently, more than 20 times per household; (2) that Zeng Xiaorong and Zeng Xiaoyu have no housing, and the government is considering giving them resettlement housing (near New Bridge); (3) that several graves need to be moved, which involve ethnic issues.
