4 1. Introduction The Urban Flood Control Project in the Mountainous Area in Hunan Province (referred to as the Project in short) loaned by the Asian Development Bank (referred to as the Asian Bank in short) has started officially. According to the requirements of the Asian Bank, the Project has introduced the resettlement monitoring and assessment mechanism to monitor and assess the process of land acquisition and resettlement, as well as the quality and effect of the resettlement for the purpose of overall understanding of the resettlement and scientific decision-making by the Owner and the Asian Bank based on the monitoring assessment reports provided by the resettlement monitoring and resettlement institute. According to the Minutes of meeting held on Apr. 29, 2007 by the Project Office and the fax issued on Aug. 16, 2007 by the Asian Bank, Hunan Water & Electricity Consulting Corporation (referred to as HWECC) would be responsible for the external monitoring and assessment of 16 non-core sub-projects including Lengshuijiang, Lianyuan, Shuangfeng, Shaoyang, Shaodong, Longhui, Jiangyong, Xintian, Jianghua, Qiyang, Ningyuan, Chenzhou, Zhuzhou, Liling, Zhuzhou and Youxian. After signing of the resettlement monitoring and assessment contract, HWECC has contacted all project units actively and has signed resettlement monitoring and assessment contracts with 3 sub-projects including Jiangyong, Chenzhou and Liling. Established in January of 2008, the Resettlement and Assessment Department for the Urban Flood Control Project in the Mountainous Area in Hunan Province 4

5 loaned by the Asian Development Bank (referred to the Resettlement and Assessment Department) in HWECC started its preparatory work, worked out the Resettlement Monitoring and Assessment Work Outline for the Urban Flood Control Project in the Mountainous Area in Hunan Province loaned by the Asian Development Bank (the draft) as well as the sub-project resettlement monitoring and assessment work outline and has begun the first stage monitoring and assessment. Since the Project has just started soon, the finished resettlement was not big and the progress was behind the resettlement plan. Therefore, the monitoring and assessment at this stage is focused on followings: (1). Establishment and operation of resettlement organizations. (2). Used resettlement policy and compensation standards. (3). Progress of land acquisition and Demolition. (4). Raising and payment of resettlement funds. 2. Project Outline 2.1 Project Outline The Urban Flood Control Project in the Mountainous Area in Hunan Province covers 35 county-level cities in the mountainous area in Hunan Province which suffer severe floods, including 8 prefecture-level cities (the Zhuzhou, Xiangtan, Hengyang, Yongzhou, Loudi, Chenzhou, Shaoyang, Huaihua and the Jishou which is the capital city of the autonomous prefecture, as well as 27 counties (cities) under 12 Cities (prefecture). The contents of the 16 non-core sub-projects undertaken by the HWECC include flood control projects, waterlogging projects, river dredging and bridges, etc., and the total investment is 1862,1127 million RMB Yuan, while the resettlement costs account for 452,9304 million RMB Yuan. 5

6 After implementation, the flood control and waterlogging standards of prefecture-level cities will be increased to 1-in-50 years and 1-in-20 years respectively, while the standards of county-level cities will be increased to 1-in-20 years and 1-in-10 years respectively, which means significant social and economic benefits. The basic information of the 16 sub-projects is shown in Table 2.1.
