Introduction Page 1 Livestock Waste Management in East Asia Project addresses one of the most significant and rapidly growing causes of land-based pollution in the South China Sea and the Gulf of Thailand environmentally unsustainable industrial-scale livestock production. The overall objectives of the project is to reduce the negative local and global environmental impacts of rapidly increasing livestock production in selected demonstration areas in China, Thailand, and Vietnam. Specifically, the proposed project and its replication aims to reduce land-based pollution from livestock production in Thailand and, consequently, in the international waterways. This project consists of four components: Component 1: Livestock Waste Management Technology Demonstration; Component 2: Policy and Replication Strategy Development; Component 3: Project Management and Monitoring; and Component 4: Regional Support Services. The objective of the first component is to improve livestock waste management technology demonstrations in livestock farming of different size, including the establishment of improved quality of surrounding agricultural land. The second component should lead to the development and implementation of policies for both livestock production and waste management with strengthened and better-enforced regulations, more effective institutions and financial incentives. The third component would result in efficient project management and effective monitoring of political/institutional and environmental changes brought about by the project. The last component would be the supportive organization and develop decision support tools such as GIS, Cost of Compliance Simulation Model (CoSiMo) and Nu-Flux Model then unifying these three countries parts as one project. According to Strategy for Ethnic Minority Development Report by DLD submitted to the Bank on 12 October 2004, it is necessary to develop ethnic minority development plans (EMDP) as a Safe Guard measurement if impact causes were triggering. KOS farm is one of the pig farms in Ratchaburi Province that participates in the demonstration farm program in Component 1 of the project. The wastewater treatment system will be constructed in this farm. 2. Legal Framework E1187 v5 The current Constitution B.E (2007), Section 30 states that there would be no discrimination or prevention of cultural socialization to maintain the identity of ethnic minorities especially the hill tribes. Article 3 in Section 30 pertains to all Thai citizens rights of and freedom from discrimination from living according to the culture of each ethnic minority group.
2 Page 2 Every individual is equal in the eye of the law and is equally protected by law. Both men and women have equal rights. Unjust discrimination against individuals because of the difference in original place of birth, ethnicity, language, sex, age, physical or health condition, individual status, socioeconomic status, religious belief, education, or political thoughts, which are not against the Acts in the Constitution, cannot be done. The Section enacted to alleviate obstacles or promote individuals right and freedom at the same par with others is not considered unjust discrimination (Article 3). Section 42 of the Constitution on land appropriation by the government, states that it cannot be done without the authority of a specific Act for the purpose of public use, out of the necessities such as to promote and protect the quality of the environment, to develop agriculture for industry. The land return must be fairly compensated within timely period to the owner including those who are negatively impacted by the land appropriation by the government. To set the compensation in a just manner, the factors to be considered are the normal selling prices, condition and situation of the immovable properties and the lost of those whose land must be returned. The law on land return must clearly specify the purpose and the period of use of the immovable properties. According to Section 66, pertaining to community s right, individuals who make up an ethnic community have the right to conserve their culture, traditions, traditional knowledge, local art and culture and to participate in the conservation and use of the environment in the balanced and sustainable ways. Working of Aliens Act, B.E (2008) that covered the working regulation, registration and permitted fee for alien worker. 3.

Currently, the Thai comprise 75 percent, the Chinese 14 percent and other EMPs 11 percent of the total population of Thailand. Other EMPs mainly include the Laotian in Northeast Thailand and the Vietnamese in a few provinces in the Northeast.
