I. ABSTRACT 1.1 Description of the Project and Land Acquisition and Resettlement Impacts 1. Hubei Huangshi Urban Pollution Control and Environmental Management Project (Hereinafter referred to as the Project) consists of 5 sub-projects, including (i) Wastewater Collection and Treatment (hereinafter to be referred to as Wastewater Treatment), (ii) Inner-Lake Ecological restoration and Hydraulic Circulation Restoration (hereinafter referred to as Ecological Restoration), (iii) Sludge Treatment and Disposal (hereinafter to be referred as Sludge Treatment), (iv) Solid Waste Management (hereinafter referred to as Solid Waste Treatment), and (v) Capacity Development and Institutional Reinforcement. This project s total investment is CNY1,504,000,000, including $100 million (CNY640,000,000) loan application from ADB and other places by supporting and self-raised. 2. Huangshi Municipal Government ADB loan-funded project working group prepared resettlement plan for this project. The project will affect five districts (Huangshigang District, Tieshan District, Xialu District, Xisaishan District and Economic Development Zone), 11 towns and streets, and 26 villages and communities. 3. In total, 897.86 mu 1 of land will be acquired permanently, while 1449.6 mu 2 of land will be occupied temporarily. Among the permanently occupied land, 308.99 mu are collectively-owned and 588.87 mu are state-owned. 193 households and 766 persons in total will be affected due to land acquisition. 228 households and 853 persons in total will be affected due to house relocation. There are 3 enterprises or institutions and 26 employees to be affected by relocation. The total area of buildings to be demolished is 52,258 square meters. To sum up, the project will affect 1001 persons. 4. The detailed measurement survey and the census of affected persons have been conducted for the project s water treatment component. Therefore, the updating the resettlement plan for this subcomponent is not necessary, if the executing agency reconfirms that there will be no changes to design prior to civil works. 1.2 Resettlement Principles and Entitlements 5. The resettlement plan were prepared in compliance with the Land Administration Law of the People s Republic of China (2004), and were also based on local policies regarding LAR in Hubei Province Huangshi City, and ADB s Safeguard Policy Statement (2009). 6. Based on consultation with the local governments and affected persons and general practices in the project area, the implementing agencies have adopted a set of resettlement principles and an entitlement matrix has been prepared for the project. 7. Compensation for land acquisition includes land compensation, settlement subsidies and beanstalk subsidy. The compensation standards are according to the comprehensive land price based on regions regulated by the Hubei province government policy. 8. All house buildings will be paid compensation for housing site building, appendix and others. Including the homestead; reconstruction and other find a place for allowance. Compensation will be based on the land and fixed assets value. The houses which practice property right exchange are according to the evaluation of the main architecture of the legal area, and exchange in "removing one to return one" way. 1 mu is a Chinese measuring unit for land and equals to 667 square meters. 2 Pipe network will be built on road which has constructed already, and won t involve into LAR. 1
9. For green crops, trees and other facilities, the compensation will be directly issued to affected people. 1.3 Public Participation and Grievance 10. Public consultation has been the key for the preparation of the resettlement plan. From December 2010 to November 2011, a series of consultation activities were carried out with the affected persons, resettlement communities, project planning institutions and other project stakeholders. The affected persons have participated in the preparation of the resettlement plan through the measurement and socioeconomic surveys, and community meetings. Their concerns and comments have been integrated into the resettlement plan. Further consultations will be held during the implementation of the resettlement plan. A grievance procedure has been established for the affected persons to redress their LAR issues, including four interceptions: (i) resettlement communities or local ROs, (ii) ROs of sub-projects; (iii) Huangshi City Urban Construction Investment and Development Co., Ltd.; and (iv) taking legal action to the people s court. 1.4 Resettlement and Livelihood Restoration 11. To minimize the resettlement impacts to affected persons and restore their living standards, detailed programs of restoration and relocation have been arranged in the resettlement plan. People can choose the available programs according to their requirements. Based on the socioeconomic survey and analysis of the affected households carried out by specialized organization, and local experiences in relocation and resettlement of similar projects, measures for resettlement and income restoration have been prepared. These measures include monetary compensation, unified resettlement housing, provision of economically affordable housing, distribution of living expenses to the affected persons, employment creation by the local safeguard network, skill training (including pig-raising fish-raising, improve the land output per unit, working on non-agricultural position or project related position, or non-monetary support and so on.) 309 mu of collectively-owned land to be permanently acquired by the project will be compensated in cash based on the type of land loss. In the project construction process, 1449.6 mu of land will be occupied temporarily, among which 675.4 mu of land will be used for sewage pipe laying on constructed roads, and no impact to affected persons life. The rest will be compensated according to temporary land occupying standard. In terms of house relocation, 228 households can choose monetary compensation or property right exchange, in which the exchanged housings will be located in 4 districts scattered in four districts of Huangshi City, among which about 170 households who affected by land acquisition of water treatment plant will be collectively resettled in the Hekou central area, Hekou town. 1.5 Institutional Arrangement 12. Huangshi City Urban Construction Investment and Development C., Ltd. will assume the overall responsibility for the implementation of land acquisition and resettlement (LAR), including the planning, implementation, financing, and reporting of LAR. Each subproject implementing agency will take the primary responsibility for the resettlement consultation, implementation, and timely delivery of entitlements. To ensure smooth implementation, the staff in charge of LAR will undertake training on resettlement implementation organized by Huangshi municipal government ADB loan-funded project working group office. The resettlement implementation schedule has been prepared based on the preparation and construction timetable. Detailed measurement survey and census has been made for the WWTP project, so no updates will be necessary for this component. The resettlement plan will be updated based on the final design and detailed measurement survey for the remaining components and be submitted to ADB for review and approval prior to award of civil works contracts. 1.6 Cost and Schedule 13. The total budget for LAR is about CNY130,839,926, accounting for 8.24% of the total investment of CNY1,587,520,800 of the whole project. Land acquisition and house demolition will start in November 2012 and be completed by the end of December 2015. 2
1.7 Monitoring and Evaluation 14. A detailed plan for both the internal and external M&E is included in the resettlement plan. The Huangshi City Urban Construction Investment and Development Co., Ltd. will submit an internal monitoring report semiannually to ADB. Furthermore, the Huangshi City Urban Construction Investment and Development Co., Ltd. will assign an external resettlement monitoring institute or firm to establish an independent external monitoring organization in order to deliver a truly independent and unbiased external monitoring report. A thorough study will be completed before the LAR begins and the first monitoring report will be submitted in March 2013. After that and until project completion, semiannual monitoring reports will be prepared and submitted for ADB s review. 3
II. PROJECT OVERVIEW 2.1 Project Background 15. Hubei province is located in south central China, and its capital is Wuhan city. Located on the southern bank alluvial plain of the Yangtze River, Huangshi city is the second largest city in Hubei province. Surrounded by mountains and with lined trees, Huangshi city is about 70 kilometers away from Wuhan. According to Huangshi City Master Plan, the urban greening coverage rate reached 49.61% in 2005, and will increase to 59% in 2020. 16. The total population of Huangshi city is 2.6014 million in 2010, among which permanent resident population reaches 813,000. The city area is 62 square kilometers. The development of Huangshi city in the past mainly depends on the mining industry with gold, silver, copper, iron, and limestone, etc. In 20th century, heavy industry witnessed a very big development on metallurgy, building materials, and clothing, etc. Along with the exhaustion of resources, some industries have to shut down or moved to the outskirts, and that led to the decreasing of the pollution of the city. The focus of current Huangshi city urban master plan is to cultivate the secondary industry (e.g., textile) and the tertiary industry (especially tourism), so as to replace the closed and relocated heavy industry. 17. Now the city construction plan is mainly developed with the "Three-lake in the center. The "Three-lake" is connected with the Yangtze River, with a total area of 10.3 square kilometers. In the flooding season, the rain could be drained directly into the Yangtze River. 540,000 residents live by the lake, and no minority residents were discovered after the survey. 18. In 2010, the annual disposable income per capita of Huangshi urban residents is CNY14,665, and annual net income per capita of rural residents is CNY5,525. There are 70,000 low-income people, whose annual disposable income per capita is less than CNY 5,100. 19. In the past, due to direct drainage of industrial sewage and filth into the lake body, the lake water was severely polluted, and the lake inter-change canal blocked up. What s more, there were unplanned farming along the bank of the Cihu Lake and the Qingshan Lake, all these caused seriously damage to the lake bank. At present, the lake water quality is in class V or lower. The polluted water and filth silted up in the lake, and make partial of the lake and canal stink. 20. The project team will follow the government policies, and learn from best practices of ADB on lake restoration, sludge treatment and small and medium scale city growth. The implementation of the project is in line with the urban master planning, and it helps to improve the environment, and will set a good example in the small and medium scale cities sustainable development on lake restoration. 2.2 Project Description and Summary of Resettlement Impact 21. The project supports the build of various urban infrastructures, including inland water bodies protection, water and solid control. All proposed components are well integrated to achieve the project s ultimate objective urban environment improvement.

The affected per capita income ranges from CNY3,901 to CNY15,000 in the affected villages (communities); the percentage of agricultural income ranges from 0.55% to 10.42%, and the percentage of income loss from 0.42% to 6.61%, so agricultural part is not the main income of affected persons. The impact analysis of land acquisition is shown in Table 3-7. 61. From the extents of income loss, affected households with 10%-30% land required will lose 2.11% to 2.91% incomes; with 30%-50% land acquired will lose 2.72% to 4.14% incomes; with 50%-70% land acquired will lose 6.39% to 6.92% incomes; with 70%-90% land acquired will lose 0.42% to 7.87% incomes. According to the analysis result, the impact to the incomes loss of affected persons is not too severe, but due to its social security function of land, a certain impact will be caused by land acquisition to affected persons, especially those who lose large quantity. Stable employment opportunities and income source have to be provided to maintain their income level. Analysis on different affected extents is shown from Table 3-8 to Table 3-11. 20

Aquaculture may be affected to some extent during the lake dredging, and aquatic farmers should be informed in advance to finish catching to avoid losses. Aquaculture should be recovered under the management of relevant departments of Huangshi City after the construction. According to the survey, no aquatic activity is carried out now. 73. For implementation of Solid Waste Treatment, the working environment and working conditions of public sanitation s will be improved.. Meanwhile, due to the sanitation vehicle, some of the sanitation s will lose their jobs. To avoid the risk of unemployment for sanitation s, Labor Re-employment Plan for the project is prepared in accordance to the ADB s requirement. See appendix VIIII. 29

The land acquisition of WWTP is in Group 1, Group 2 and Group 10 of this village, in which the per capita income is 5503 CNY, and agricultural income accounts for 10%. 130 villages are covered by basic living allowance, with various standards of 120 CNY/month, 150 CNY/month and 250 CNY/month. The raising farm in the village has more than 30 employees, with average month income of 1,500 CNY. Contacted by individual, the farm has a production of 10,000 annually, in which most are pigs, and the management fee of the farm is turned in to the village every year. There is also a dock with more than 10 employees involved in transportation business and an annual income of more than one billion. Most of the village people are supportive to the Project. 76. One water abstraction pumping station should be built in the Group 5 of Daoshifu for Hexi WWTP of Huangshi City, and the station will occupy land of Group 5, which has a population of 174, cultivated land of 88 mu, per capita cultivated land of 0.5 mu and per capita net income of 4,800 CNY. 77. Turned into a community in 2001, Chenbaizhen is managed as city model with non-agricultural production as its major model. During the urbanization process of Huangshi City, the land areas of Chenbaizhen were decreased gradually for continuous land acquisition. Community residents mainly plant vegetables in the remaining land for their own consumption. The whole community of Chenbaizhen has total 3,000 people, 1,800 labors, 300 mu land and agricultural income accounts for less than 5%. CNY 30
78. Turned into a community in 2007, Laoxialu is managed as city model with non-agricultural production as its major model. During the urbanization process of Huangshi City, the land areas of Laoxialu were decreased gradually for continuous land acquisition. Community residents mainly plant vegetables in the remaining land for their own consumption. The whole community of Laoxialu has total 1,040 people of 298 HHs, and 100 mu land. With per capita income of 3860CNY, the agricultural income accounts for less than 8%. 79. Except those who live Guniuzhou Village of Hekou Town, where a WWTP will be built, other affected HHs are community residents in Huangshi City whose income mainly comes from non-agricultural production instead of agricultural. In the process of urbanization, their contracted land was acquired continuously with a small number of land remained to plant vegetables for their own consumption. After the land acquisition, some affected persons have to buy vegetables in market, which will increase their living expenditure. Affected persons do not feel inconvenient after land acquisition since they are community residents. Due to the collective ownership of the land, the allocation of the LA compensation will be decided by community residents according to previous practice of LA and discussion conclusions of the resident representatives conference. 4.3.1 Sampling Proportion 4.3 Sampling Survey 80. As Wastewater Treatment System has the greatest influence of the Project, Group 1, Group 2, and Group 10 of Guniuzhou Village are selected as the sampling villages. All together 176 HHs are affected in this three groups, in which 73 HHs are selected as samples, accounts for f 41.5%. Shenghongqing Village and Sanchalu Village are selected as sampling villages for Solid Waste Treatment Project. All affected HHs of 20 are selected as sample. For the Project, all together 309 HHs are affected, in which 93 HHs are selected as samples, accounts for 30.1%. Sampling proportions are shown in Table4-2. 30.1% In addition, the design plan has been optimized after the socio-economic survey, so in some cases, number of sampling HHs is greater than that of affected HHs.

90. From the foregoing analysis, the educational level of female in affected areas is relatively lower than that of male. From the employment point of view, more than 50% women do housework at home; only 27% of them are engaged in seasonal temporary work. 91. For the impact of the Project, the residents will have better living conditions after the demolition and resettlement. For females who withstand most housework, the improvement of living conditions and environment will reduce their labor burden and lighten the impact from polluted environment. In particular, the regulation of rivers and lakes will contribute directly to the improvement of surroundings and water quality. The improvement of living and sanitary conditions is a great opportunity for females undertaking major housework, while house resettlement process will cause a certain psychological impact on females. 92. According to the survey, villagers pay close attention to the reasonable compensation, and majority of workforces do off-farm works out of villages. All households surveyed affected by LA agree with the acquisition, believing the fairness during the resettlement compensation. Villagers surveyed impacted by land demolition and resettlement have expressed their willingness to move to a better-located place to live, their agreement to compensation standards. They expect more resettlement compensation, as well as more governmental assistance when moving into new house and investing in other industries. 4.5 Ethnic Minorities 93. The socio-economic survey of the Project shows no minority families are affected. Therefore, no ethnic minority problem is caused by the Project. 4.6 Conclusion i) More than 90% of affected persons are supportive to the Project. ii) Due to the economic development of Huangshi City, agricultural income of the affected persons does not exceed 18% of total income. iii) Most of the affected labors have the experience of migrant works and relatively stable incomes. iv) Land acquisition has an impact on the affected persons s long-term and steady lives. v) Land acquisition has an impact on the affected persons s incomes. vi) House resettlement process will cause a certain psychological impact on females. vii) The Project involves no ethnic minority. viii) The affected persons pay close attention to the fairness and just of the compensation and resettlement. ix) The affected persons pay close attention to replaced house locations. x) The affected persons concern about the implementation of endowment insurance for farmers whose lands are acquired. xi) The affected persons concern about the source of the construction investment. 36
V. INFORMATION DISCLOSURE, PUBLIC CONSULTATION AND PARTICIPATION 94. In order to make the resettlement work of the Project base on a feasible and reliable foundation, ensure the lawful rights and interests of displaced persons and relocated enterprises and reduce dissatisfaction and dispute, the project attaches great importance to the participation and consultation of displaced persons. The resettlement plan is prepared on the basis of full consultation with affected population and information disclosure. Therefore, in the decision process of the planning, design and implementation of the project, HCUCIDCL ROs of all sub-components, Shanghai Yiji Construction Engineering Consulting Corporation (SYCECC) together with all the consultant institutions took the opportunities of socio-economic surveys and social effect evaluation to propagandize the background of the Project in various ways, make consultations with all kinds of affected persons and negotiated about common concerns. Public participation and consultation provide a basis for the improvement of the resettlement plan. 5.1 Public Participation and Consultation Activities Performed 95. As to all significant topics for discussion involved in the planning stage of resettlement, the project RO has organized design organizations, consultant organizations, local ROs and affected population to disclose information and conduct public consultation in various ways. Main disclosure and consultation activities so far are shown in Table 5-1. Table 5-1: Main Activities of Resettlement Information Disclosure and Consultation No. Time Content of disclosure and consultation Participants No. of Participant Organizer 1 2010 2-2011 4 Optimization of project design scheme SYCECC, Project design institution, HCUCIDCL, representatives of affected persons 5 HCUCIDCL 2 2011 2-2011 5 Amount of LAR SYCECC, HCUCIDCL, representatives of affected persons 11 HCUCIDCL 3 2011 4-2011 5 Compensation standards for land requisition SYCECC, HCUCIDCL, representatives of affected persons 8 HCUCIDCL 4 2011 5-2011 6 Compensation standards for houses SYCECC, HCUCIDCL, affected enterprises and institutions, villages and persons 40 HCUCIDCL 5 2011 4-2011 5 Social effect of the Project SYCECC, HCUCIDCL, affected enterprises and institutions, and persons 30 HCUCIDCL 6 2011 5-2011 7 Resettlement mode and desire SYCECC, HCUCIDCL, and affected persons 25 HCUCIDCL 7 2011 5-2011 7 Resettlement policies HCUCIDCL, and affected persons 20 HCUCIDCL 8 2011 2-2011 5 Negotiation on resettlement locations SYCECC, HCUCIDCL, and affected persons 20 HCUCIDCL 96. After April 2010, the ADB delegation evaluated the content of the project. SYCECC and HCUCIDCL interviewed affected persons. The summarized results of several interviews are shown as follow: 97. Firstly, the respondents have positive opinions on the project and they also have high expectation on this project. Such as, 90% approve the project, most believe that more job opportunities will be offered, local environment quality will be improved, local economy and the tourist industry will be boosted, regional investment environment will be improved, local women will benefit from it, and their family life will be better because of the project. Meanwhile, they also 37
think that the government needs to speed up the progress of the project construction. 98. Secondly, interviews show affected persons highly concern about compensation resettlement, especially compensation standards and resettlement policies. For relocated HHs, they concerns about resettlement location and resettlement policies, as well as where comes from all the investments. 99. According to the above situations, during the preparation and implementation of the Project, HCUCIDCL and other relevant organizations will introduce the project to the impacted persons by handing out resettlement manuals, declaring resettlement policies, holding village representative meetings and so on, emphasis will be paid to the publicity of national LAR policies and specific implemental measures of Huangshi city, and the disclosure of relevant information of the Project, so as to fulfill resettlement policies. 5.2 Feedback on Public Participation and Consultation 100. From April to November 2011, SYCECC and HCUCIDCL carried out socio-economic surveys for affected population, generalized and summarized the opinions and advices put forward by them, timely fed back to engineering design organizations, and fully considered and absorbed these opinions and advices when formulating the resettlement plan. Feedback on public participation and negotiation up to now is shown in Table 5-2. Table 5-2: Feedback on Public Participation and Consultation Item Problems Reasons and Results Measures for Improvement Land requisition and relocation Compensation funds Public facilities and environment The environment improvement project will occupy some houses.

After the meeting, relevant personnel should visit displaced persons and the latter should sign Resettlement Compensation Agreement through full negotiation. Indirect Consultation. Displaced persons may reflect their complaints, ideas and suggestions to village (community) committee and resettlement and monitoring departments at all levels. The ROs should feedback relevant handling ideas according to proceeding procedures. 5.5 Policy Disclosure and Resettlement Information Booklet 103. In order to let all affected population understand the resettlement policies and implementation of the project in time and thoroughly so that resettlement can be carried out openly, fairly and transparently, resettlement agencies at all levels will adopt the following measures: i) Before May 20, 2012, the resettlement policies and standards should be published in Huangshi Daily or other media; ii) Each affected community should disclose its situation of affected population, compensation standards, resettlement measures, and complaint and appeal channels, and so on in the presence of community cadres, or in other public places; iii) Before April 30, 2012, the resettlement plan for this project will be available at HCUCIDCL or other public places of affected areas, for checking out convenience of displaced population at all times; iv) Provide one Resettlement Information Booklet for each affected HH. 104. The resettlement policies, compensation standards, project implementation progress, procedures for solving dissatisfactions and complaints of displaced persons will be listed in details in the Resettlement Information Booklet. The booklet will be issued to affected persons after the resettlement plan is approved by ADB and, HMPG, and its pattern is as shown in APPENDIX II. The resettlement plan will be posted on ADB Website after approved by HMPG and reviewed by ADB. 40
VI. COMPLAINTS AND APPEALS 105. Since LAR relate to various aspects, it is a complicated work. It is inevitable that the displaced persons may be dissatisfied at some matters such as resettlement and compensation and have some complaints during the implementation, as it relates to the benefit of displaced persons. To ensure the complaints of displaced persons can be handled smoothly and rapidly, HCUCIDCL will establish a transparent and feasible collecting and handling procedure of dissatisfaction and complaints to deal with such issues objectively and efficiently. 6.1 Methods of Collecting Dissatisfaction and Complaints i) The report of local RO, which includes complaints of the masses, the progress of resettlement, working measures and existing problems ii) The construction log faxed to the Owner by the construction organizer, which shows whether and how the masses affect the construction iii) The site inspection of the IA, during which the problems relating to the LAR may be found. iv) Relevant information provided by the independent monitoring organization v) Letters and visits of the displaced persons vi) Information provided by the workstation of the Owner vii) Relevant problems found by auditor and discipline inspection departments viii) Information on payment of land compensation shown on the fund transfer list provided by the bank ix) Specific survey of internal monitoring agency 6.2 Procedure of Complaining and Appealing 106. Phase 1. The displaced persons give their oral or written complaints to the community committee or local RO. In case of oral complaint, the community committee or local RO must keep a written record and give a clear reply within 2 weeks. If it is a big issue that shall be submitted to the superior RO, the community committee or local RO shall try to get the comments of the superior RO within 2 weeks. 107. Phase 2. If the reply given in the Phase 1 fails in satisfying the complainer, the complainer may appeal to the district RO within 1 month after receiving the decision of Phase 1. The district RO shall make a decision on the appeal within 3 weeks. 108. Phase 3. If the complainer is dissatisfied with the replay of the district RO, he or she may appeal to the HCUCIDCL Management Office within 1 month after receiving the reply of Phase 2. The HCUCIDCL Management Office will give its comment within 4 weeks. 109. Phase 4. If the complainer is still dissatisfied with the reply of Phase 3, he or she may appeal to civil court within 15 days after receiving the reply or report to ADB. Affected persons can also submit complaints to ADB which will be handled by the Project Team. 110. If an affected person is still not satisfied and believes they have been harmed due to non-compliance with ADB policy, they may submit a complaint to ADB s Office of Special Project Facility or Office of Compliance Review in accordance with ADB s Accountability Mechanism 6. 111. Affected person also could appeal the complaints to civil courts at any stage of the LAR process directly if he or she does not want to proceed through the project GRM. 112. All grievances and complaints (oral or written) will be reported to the ADB on in internal and external monitoring report. 6 For further information see: http://www.adb.org/accountability-mechanism/default.asp. 41
6.3 Principles of Handling Complaints 113. The ROs at various levels must carry out site survey on the complaints of the masses, collect their opinions and negotiate with them patiently, in accordance with the principles and standards stipulated in the rules and regulations of the state and the resettlement plan, and give comments objectively and reasonably. The RO shall report those problems that cannot be handled on its own to the superior RO timely and assist the latter in carrying out relevant survey. 114.

VII. LEGAL FRAMEWORK 7.1 Policies and Principles of Project Resettlement 120. The Resettlement of HUBEI HUANGSHI URBAN POLLUTION CONTROL AND ENVIRONMENTAL MANAGEMENT PROJECT will be carried out strictly according to relevant laws and regulations, and policies of PRC, Hubei Province and Huangshi City. In addition, the planning and implementation process will be executed completely complying with ADB s relevant policies on Involuntary Resettlement. Please see Appendix 3 for detailed information. 121. The compilation of the resettlement plan and the implementation of resettlement work for the Project will be in accordance with the ADB s Safeguard Policy Statement (June 2009). The implementation of resettlement will strictly follow the policies, and its approval will be obtained from ADB prior to any change. If any significant changes must be made, the Project Resettlement Office will discuss with the affected persons, and put forward an updated resettlement plan. (1) The ADB s Safeguard Policy Statement, 2009 (ADB s SPS) 122. The ADB s SPS 7 sets out the following objectives for involuntary resettlement: (i) avoid involuntary resettlement whenever feasible; (ii) minimize involuntary resettlement by exploring project and design alternatives; (iii) enhance, or at least restore the livelihoods of all affected persons in real terms relative to pre-project levels; and (iv) improve the standards of living of the affected poor and other vulnerable groups. ADB defines the scope of involuntary resettlement as (i) physical displacement (relocation, loss of residential land, or loss of shelter) and (ii) economic displacement (loss of land, assets, access to assets, income sources, or means of livelihoods) as a result of involuntary acquisition of land, or involuntary restrictions on land use or on access to legally designated parks and protected areas. The policy applies whether such losses and involuntary restrictions are full or partial, permanent or temporary. The SPS sets out the following policy principles for involuntary resettlement: i) 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 affected persons, including a gender analysis, specifically related to resettlement impacts and risks; ii) iii) Carry out meaningful consultations with affected persons, host communities, and concerned nongovernment organizations. Inform all affected 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 affected 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; Improve, or at least restore, the livelihoods of all affected 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 as SR 2. 7 The specific policy requirements for involuntary resettlement are set out in Annex 2 of the SPS, referred to 44
replacement cost for assets that cannot be restored, and (iv) additional revenues and services through benefit sharing schemes where possible; iv) Provide physically and economically affected 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; v) Improve the standards of living of the affected 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; vi) vii) viii) ix) Develop procedures in a transparent, consistent, and equitable manner if land acquisition is through negotiated settlement to ensure that those people who enter into negotiated settlements will maintain the same or better income and livelihood status; Ensure that affected persons without titles to land or any recognizable legal rights to land are eligible for resettlement assistance and compensation for loss of non-land assets; Prepare a resettlement plan elaborating on affected persons entitlements, the income and livelihood restoration strategy, institutional arrangements, monitoring and reporting framework, budget, and time-bound implementation schedule; 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; x) 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; xi) xii) Pay compensation and provide other resettlement entitlements before physical or economic displacement; Implement the resettlement plan under close supervision throughout project implementation; Monitor and assess resettlement outcomes, their impacts on the standards of living of affected 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 123. Table 7-1 shows relevant policies and principles of LAR. The difference (cash payment methods, community and individual income-recovery measures) between communities are fully considered in setting principles for compensation, LAR, and recovery. The key objective of all 45
these principles is to ensure sufficient compensation and assistance for affected persons during LAR, so as to recover and improve their incomes and living standards. Table 7-1: Summary of Resettlement Principles No. Principle Compensation and interest provided to affected persons should at least maintain the same living 1 level before the project. Compensation and resettlement should be given to all affected persons regardless their legal titles or 2 entitlements. In case per capita cultivated land is not sufficient to maintain affected persons livelihood, adequate 3 cash compensation or economic recovery methods should be provided to affected persons so that similar income could be maintained. The affected persons should be fully informed about qualification materials, resettlement and 4 compensation options and standards, living standard and income recovery plans, project implement schedule, and be involved in the implementation of the resettlement plan. Land should not be acquired before the affected persons obtain the replaced land or sufficient 5 compensation. The implementation of compensation and resettlement plan should be monitored by both executing 6 agency and the independent third party. Special support and treatment should be given to members of disadvantaged groups to ensure their 7 living conditions. The affected persons should be given opportunities to get benefits from the resettlement plan. 8 The resettlement plan should be combined with master plans of county, city and district. The budgets of compensation and resettlement should be made completely and comprehensively, 9 and the funds should be disbursed timely. 10 Transfer from rural residents to urban should be provided when practicable 7.2 Compensation Standards 7.2.1 Land and property loss will be compensated based on the following principles i) All property is compensated in line with the principle of replacement value. Compensation fees will be paid before property and land acquisition. ii) Training, assistance and employment opportunities should be provided to the affected persons to maintain their living standard. iii) The compensation for the green crops, trees and other attachments will be paid according to market prices. iv) Management of construction should be strengthened to shorten the construction period and reduce the negative impacts. v) Compensation for resettlement subsidies will be given to the affected labors with which they can continue previous work and develop individual business. 7.2.2 Land Compensation Standards and Implementation 124. The Project will use Huangshi Municipal land acquisition compensation resettlement multiple, correction factor, and young crops compensation standard released by Land Resource Bureau of Hubei Province (2009.11.30). Compensation standards for land acquisition are shown in Table 7-2. 125. For collectively-owned land acquisition, compensation should be paid to rural collective economic organizations with land ownerships, If the organizations cannot provide land with appropriate quality and quantity to these farmers for their continue operations, compensation should be paid to the contracted farmers. 126. Attachments and crops fees should be paid to the owners. 127. According to the provisions of the Chinese village self-government, land compensation should be paid to the affected village collective for the use of village s public affairs such as collective part of endowment insurance and medical insurance, and assistance to vulnerable 46
groups. The usage should be approved by more than 2/3 of the villages. 128. Resettlement subsidies will be paid according to previous practice by each community, and the allocation ratio paying to the affected persons will be decided by the community residents. Young crops fee will be paid to the affected persons. 129. Table 7-3 shows tax and fee standards for land acquisition, in which the correction factor of woodland is 0.7, while that of construction land unused land is 0.3.
