EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Introduction to RP Update

This project RP update is based on results of the DMS and final design. The number of

urban roads is changed from the original 21 to 17, whereas the water plant is not changed. In

the construction design stage, a total housing demolition area of 26,696 m2 is reduced, and the

relocation of 267 households with 869 people and one business unit is avoided. Because of the

increase on state-owned land transfer cost for ancillary facilities and Zhangye Water Supply

Plant, the resettlement budget increased by 17,209,963 yuan. Impact comparison table is

shown in Table 1.

E1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PROJECT AND LAND ACQUISITION AND RESETTLEMENT

IMPACTS

1. The Zhangye Urban Infrastructure Development Component (the Project) of ADB

Financed Gansu Urban Infrastructure Development and Wetland Protection Project consists of

four components, including: (i) Urban Road Construction (17 new roads with 36.213 km length in

total); (ii) Wastewater and Stormwater Pipeline Construction along Roads; (iii) A Water Supply

Plant (80,000 ton per day) and Pipeline Construction; and (iv) Road Ancillary works.

2. The Project will affect forty (40) groups of eleven (11) village committees in one (1) town

of Ganzhou District of Zhangye City. In total, 2,142.9 mu of land will be acquired permanently,

while 60 mu of land will be occupied temporarily. Among the permanently acquired land, 1,881.7

mu is cultivated land, 148.8 mu is housing site land and 79.36 mu is institutional or unit land.

3,674 persons from 1,014 households in total will be directly affected due to land acquisition.

The area of residential housing to be demolished is 139,739 m2, affecting 1,186 persons from

310 households. 23 business/operating units with 9,680 m2 house will also be demolished.

Since the remaining land will be adjusted and reassigned to all villagers after the land

acquisition, all the 2,388 households from 40 groups will be in fact affected by the land

acquisition.

E2. RESETTLEMENT PRINCIPLES AND ENTITLEMENTS

3. The RP was prepared in compliance with the Land Administration Law of the People’s

Republic of China (2004) and was also based on local policies regarding land acquisition and

resettlement (LAR) in Gansu Province and Zhangye City, and ADB’s Safeguard Policy

Statement (June 2009). Based on consultation with the local governments and affected persons

(APs) and general practices in the project area, Zhangye Ganzhou District Foreign Loan

Management Committee (ZGDFLMC), the implementing agency (IA), has adopted a set of

resettlement principles and an entitlement matrix has been prepared for the Project.

Compensation for land acquisition, residential housing, and nonresidential buildings (shops and

enterprises) will be paid to the APs. For the land acquisition, compensation fees include land

compensation, a resettlement subsidy, and a compensation for crops and trees. All house

3

buildings will be paid compensation for housing site land, structure replacement and other

relocation allowance, while house attachments built by the households will be compensated for

structure replacement cost. The compensation payments will be in cash according to the

appraised value of the land and fixed property assets. Compensation for crops, trees, other

facilities, and temporary impacts will be paid directly to the APs. Income losses resulting from

reduced production and/or sales and wages caused by the Project will be assessed and

compensated in cash.

E3. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION AND GRIEVANCE

4. From December 2010 to May 2013, a series of consultation activities were carried out

with the APs, resettlement communities (RCs), institutions and enterprises, and other project

stakeholders. The APs have participated in the preparation of the RP through the measurement

and socioeconomic surveys, and community meetings. Their concerns and comments have

been integrated into the RP. Further consultations will be held during the implementation of the

RP. A grievance procedure has been established for the APs to redress their LAR issues,

including four channels: (i) RCs or local resettlement offices (ROs), (ii) ROs of subprojects; (iii)

ZGDFLMC; and (iv) taking legal action to the people’s court.

E4. RESETTLEMENT AND LIVELIHOOD REHABILITATION

5. To minimize the resettlement impacts to APs and restore their living standards, detailed

programs of restoration and relocation have been arranged in the RP. Based on the

socioeconomic survey and analysis of the AHs, and local experiences in relocation and

resettlement of similar projects, measures for resettlement and income restoration have been

prepared. These measures include monetary compensation, land reassignment within the

group, unified resettlement housing, provision of economically affordable housing, distribution of

living expense subsidy to the APs, employment creation by Zhangye Ganzhou Human

Resource and Social Welfare Bureau, skill training for the APs, employment of APs prior to

others under the same condition during the construction so that they can gain incomes.

6. About 2,109.82 mu village collectively-owned land will be compensated in cash based

on the types of acquired lands. After compensation, the affected groups will reorganize and

reassign the remaining land to all villagers within each affected group. 310 AHs will be relocated

together in new community. About 23 small enterprises/household shops will be impacted by

house demolition. They will be compensated for their asset loss, and relocation and transitional

4

allowance. 68 employees will be affected, but there is no income loss.

Zhangye Water Supply Plant is to be located in the forest of Xindun Town, which belongs

to state-owned land, and the land use right will be obtained by the transfer of state-owned land.

E5. INSTITUTIONAL ARRANGEMENT

7. ZGDFLMC will assume the overall responsibility for the implementation of LAR, including

the planning, implementation, financing, and reporting of LAR. It will also 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 ZGDFLMC. The resettlement

implementation schedule has been prepared based on the preparation and construction

timetable. The RP will be finalized based on the final design and detailed measurement survey

and be submitted to ADB for review and approval prior to award of civil works contracts.

E6. COST AND SCHEDULE

8. The total budget for land acquisition and resettlement of this project is 266,977,963

yuan. Land acquisition and house demolition is expected to be started in August 2013 and be

completed by the end of May 2016.(LAR will be started immediately after the ADB Approval).

E7. MONITORING AND EVALUATION

9. A detailed plan for both the internal and external monitoring and evaluation (M&E) is

included in the RP. The Zhangye Project Management Office of Infrastructure Construction and

Wetland Reservation (ZPMO) will submit an internal monitoring report semi-annually to ADB.

Furthermore, the ZPMO will employ an external resettlement monitoring institute or firm to

investigate resettlement implementation and prepare external monitoring reports. The first

monitoring report will be submitted in October, 2013. After that and until project completion,

semi-annual monitoring reports will be prepared and submitted for ADB’s review. After

completion of the LAR, annual evaluation reports will be submitted to ADB, and the evaluation

lasts for two years.

I. PROJECT OVERVIEW

1.1 INTRODUCTION OF ZHANGYE CITY

10. Zhangye City is located in the middle of Hexi Corridor, Gansu Province. Wuwei and

Jinchang cities are on its east, while Jiuquan and Jiayuguan cities are on its west. The south

part of Zhangye borders with Qinghai Province and its north part is bordered with Inner

Mongolia. Zhangye City consists of Ganzhou District, and five counties of Linze, Gaotai,

Shandan, Minle, and Sunan Yugur Minority Autonomous County, with a total area of

approximately 42,400 km2 and a total population of approximately 1.3 million in 2010. It has 93

townships or towns and 904 administrative villages.

11. Ganzhou District is located in the middle of Zhangye City, with a total area of 3,692 km2

and a total population of 0.52 million which includes 0.191 million urban residents and 0.329

million rural people. It is the location of Zhangye Municipal Government.

12. In 2010, the total production value of Ganzhou District is CNY9.346 billion, including the

contribution of primary industry accounts for 26.4%, secondary industry accounts for 32.1% and

tertiary industry accounts for 41.5%. Ganzhou District has 2,007 village groups, 245 village

administrative committees, and 19 townships or towns. In 2010, the area of cultivated land in

Ganzhou District was 764.1 thousand mu, and the production of crop is 371,711.6 tons and the

net income per villager was CNY5,862.

1.2 PROJECT CONTENTS

13. The Project mainly constructs (i) 17 new roads and bridges which has a total length of

36.2127km; (ii) a water supply plant (The capacity of water supply plant first phase approved by

Gansu Provincial Development and Reform Commission is 40,000 tons / day) with pipelines of

5.51 km from a water source to the water supply plant. The 17 new roads will be constructed

Xindun Town in the northwest of Zhangye City, which require permanent land acquisition. The

new water supply plant will occupy an area of 33.09 mu state-owned land in the forest of Xindun

Town, Ganzhou District, Zhanye City. This Forest is state owned forest, with an area of 1300 mu,

and the density of trees is 70-80 trees /mu. There are 3 civil servants working for the

management of the forest, and there will be no impact on the salary of these civil servants after

LAR. This forest has not reached scale industry, so the income is very low. The water pipelines

will be installed under the existing roads, so there is no additional land acquisition and

resettlement.

Note: The forest is 80 meters east to Black River levees

14. The civil work of the Project plans to start from December 2013 and is expected to be

completed in December 2016. The land acquisition and house demolition will start in August

2013 and end in May 2016.

1.3 AFFECTED REGIONS

15. The Project will permanently acquire a total of 2,142.9 mu, among which

collectively-owned land is 2,109.8 mu, affecting 40 groups of 11 villages in Ganzhou District of

Zhangye City, and the state-owned forest land is 33.09 mu. 3629 farmers from 1014 households

will be affected directly by the land acquisition. A total structure area of 149,419 m2 (including

residential houses 139,739 m2, and unit buildungs (including operating units and institutions

9680 m2) will be demolished. It affects 310 households, 1,186 persons, 23 business/operating

units and 68 employees. It is worth to note that, because the remaining land will be organized

and reassigned to all farmers based on each group unit after the land acquisition, all farmers in

the affected groups are APs. Therefore, the APs should include 8,652 persons from 2,388

9

households of 40 groups in the 11 villages. The impact of land acquisition and house demolition

for residents are shown in Table 1-2, and the summary of land acquisition and house demolition

for this project are shown Table 1-3.

1.4 MEASURES TO MITIGATE IMPACTS

16. Resettlement has been considered as a key part during the planning and implementing

of the Component. With full consideration of construction costs, social impact, environmental

impact and other factors, efforts should be made to minimize the impact of the resettlement.

1.4.1 Measures Adopted at the Project Design Stage

17. At the planning and design stage, for the purpose of minimizing the negative impact of

project construction on local society and economy, the ZPMO held many joint meetings, with

attendance of the consulting units and design institutes, to discuss how to optimize the design

program and minimize the negative social and economic impact of the resettlement.

18. At the design stage, the principles concluded for realizing project optimization and

minimizing the impact of resettlement are described as below:

First, carry out project optimization and comparative selection, examine closely the

impact of project construction on local society and economy in as many aspects as possible,

and try to occupy vacant land and minimize the occupation of cultivated land if land occupation

is unavoidable.

Second, minimize relocation if it is unavoidable, and regard it as a key indicator for

program optimization and comparative selection. Meanwhile, reasonable space is to be

reserved for the connection of this Project with other municipal facilities.

Third, give full consideration to the resettlement and try to minimize LAR during the

comparative selection among different design programs.

19. In order to minimize APs, the ZPMO has taken different measures to avoid or reduce the

influence of resettlement. If the influence cannot be avoided, the ZPMO will help APs recover

their working and living conditions by compensation and taking other measures.

20. During the comparison of the different designs of the Project, the finally affected area is

shown in Table1-4. Through project optimization, 554.69 mu land acquisition is reduced and

1384 APs are avoided. The analysis of optimization plan for land acquisition and resettlement

are shown in Table1-4.

1.4.2 Measures to Be Adopted during LAR

21. In the event that the LAR is unavoidable, in order to mitigate the local impacts of the

project construction, the measures to be taken are as follows:

(i) Conduct an in-depth analysis of the local socio-economic status, and prepare a

feasible RP to ensure that the displaced persons would not be adversely impacted

due to the implementation of the Project.

(ii) Encourage the participation and supervision of the public and listen to opinions

and advice from the affected population.

(iii) Strengthen internal and external monitoring, establish highly efficient feedback

mechanism and channels, and minimize the period for processing information to

ensure the timely solution of problems occurring in the construction. Notify

displaced persons in advance, arrange sites for relocation, compensate the losses

of displaced persons, minimize the idling period, and provide jobs for employees of

affected enterprises.

(iv) During the relocation, get help and support from local governmental authorities to

ensure the smooth implementation of resettlement, and to reduce the pressure and

loss of displaced persons and institutions.

1.4.3 Measures to Be Adopted during Construction

22. The following measures are to be adopted during the construction to mitigate impact:

14

(i) Reasonably prepare construction plan and arrange traffic organization design, and

minimize the impact of construction on the surrounding environment and traffic

order. When excavating, all the factors shall be taken into full consideration. The

excavation, laying pipelines and backfilling shall be finished in the shortest time

possible. For road crossing road with heavy traffic, the construction shall not be

carried out in rush hours (for example the construction is carried out during the

night to ensure smooth traffic flow in the day). It is forbidden to destroy existing

pipelines. Warning signs, signals and leading marks shall be set up for vehicles

and pedestrians. After the completion of the construction, the site shall be cleared

and opened to the traffic.

(ii) Dredged spoil shall be timely carried out.

(iii) In the area within 200 meter away from residences of the civilians, the construction

is forbidden from 10 pm to 8 am.

(iv) The construction unit shall timely contact with the local environmental sanitation

department to clear and clean the wastes in the construction sites.

1.5 PREPARATION AND PROGRESS OF THE PROJECT

23. According to the need of the preparation for resettlement work, a cut-off date for any

construction in the affected areas of all components was set as December 31, 2012. The PMO

notified the village committees and then the VCs notified to APs during the survey from May

2011 to December 2012. The construction status at the deadline is taken as the reference for

resettlement survey. The RP of the Project is prepared according to the inventory of the

properties affected by LAR, socioeconomic investigation of the APs, and data of the technical

feasibility study report.

1.6 Ownership of the Project

24. The executing agency of the Project is the Ganzhou District Government, while the

ZPMO, established in Zhangye Ganzhou District Foreign Loan Management Committee

(ZGDFLMC), on behalf of the Ganzhou District Government, is responsible for management of

the project implementation. The ZGDFLMC as IA of the Project is responsible for

implementation of roads and water supply components.

15

II. PROJECT IMPACT ANALYSIS

2.1 DEFINITION OF PROJECT IMPACT

25. The physical survey scope for the impact of this project is determined according to the

project planning scope provided by the design institute. It consists of vehicle roads,

non-motorized vehicle lanes, pavement, greenbelts, sidewalks and water plant. ZGDFLMC has

finalized the RP according to the final design impact data.

26. The Project impact is defined as follows:

(i) Permanent land acquisition: all varieties of cultivated land and uncultivated land to

be used permanently within the red line range of the Project. Cultivated land mainly

includes dry land, vegetable land and so on; uncultivated land mainly includes

waste land, housing site and so on.

(ii) Temporary land acquisition: all varieties of land to be used temporarily during

construction period, which can be recovered after construction.

(iii) Demolished buildings: all buildings within the red line range of the Project, mainly

including framework-structure houses, brick-concrete houses, brick-wood houses,

simple houses, etc. According to the proprietary rights of the buildings, they may

be classified as residential buildings and buildings of enterprises and institutions.

According to the purposes of the buildings, they may be classified as private

dwelling, houses used by enterprises and institutions, and shops, etc.

(iv) Affected attachments to the ground: attachments to the ground within the red line

range of the Project (e.g., toilets, storage, simple structures for poultry and

livestock, etc.).

(v) Affected public facilities: public service facilities within the range of project effect.

(vi) AHs: any household with land, buildings and attachments to the ground within the

red line range of the project or affected directly by the Project.

(vii) Affected communities: any community with land, buildings and attachments to the

ground within the red line range of the project or affected directly by the Project.

(viii) Affected enterprises and institutions: any enterprise or institution with land,

buildings and attachments to the ground within the red line range of the project or

affected directly by the Project.

16

(ix) APs: all members of the AHs and affected enterprises and institutions.

(x) Affected labors: labors working in the affected shops, enterprises or institutions or

engaging in agricultural production on the land for acquisition.

(xi) Affected leaseholders: all persons leasing affected buildings for living or business

operation based on the contracts.

(xii) Vulnerable groups: vulnerable groups are those who are more severely impacted

by a project than others due to their poverty, gender, ethnicity, religion, language,

lack of ownership or title to land, etc., and social groups amongst the AHs or

businesses that are easy to be harmed, lack capability of responding to social

changes, and stand in the unfavorable status due to their weak social participation

capability, social security, disability, poverty and others, mainly including solitary

and widowed elder, female single-parent family, orphan, poor family, handicapped

person and patient, and etc.

(xiii) Unregistered structures: any structures built in the project area without official

approval according to relevant regulatory procedures.

2.2 PROJECT IMPACT SURVEY

27. According to the land acquisition area designed and determined by Construction Plan,

ZPMO conducted the impact survey which includes the number of APs, houses, land and other

facilities.

28. In order to analyze the social impact and make a draft RP, ZPMO conducted the social

and economic survey of affected districts, villages, groups and households from May 2011 to

July 20111. Social and economic conditions can be known from the statistical data. 160

households from four (4) villages were visited during the households sampling survey. The

purpose of social and economic survey is as follows: (i) have a basic knowledge of social and

economic conditions and development plan of the affected area. This starts with collecting the

information and data from local government, the department of statistic and the department of

agriculture, which include GDP, gross agricultural product, per capita income, agricultural

1 There was no need to update the survey as the components remained the same, except some road sections

were deleted. So some surveyed HHs are no longer impacted.

17

by-product, different pricing index, agricultural planting mode, area of cultivated land, yield of

every mu, conditions of cultivated land and annual statistical report; (ii) clearly know the potential

influence of land acquisition and housing demolition according to each village’s annual statistical

report and sampling survey on AHs; and (ii) provide partial basic data for the monitoring and

evaluation (M&E) of resettlement during the implement of the Project.

29. The resettlement survey is divided into three parts as follows:

(i) Literature survey

(a) Statistics of social economy of Zhangye City and the project area;

(b) Local laws and regulations related to LAR of the state, Gansu Province and

Zhangye City.

(ii) Social and economic background survey

(a) Survey of basic circumstances of the affected families and vulnerable

families in the area affected by the Project;

(b) Public opinions and suggestions; and

(c) Survey of basic circumstances of the affected villages’ population, labor

force, industrial structure and cultivated land, etc.

(iii) Survey of affected objects in LAR

(a) Circumstance of land acquisition: location, category and area;

(b) Demolished buildings and other attachments to the land: location, category,

quantity and property rights;

(c) Category and quantity of various public facilities; and

(d) Basic circumstances and affected situation of household enterprises.

30. Based on the survey and consultation with the village committees, representatives of

AHs, and local relevant government departments, December 31, 2012 is set as cut-off date of

existing physical status in affected areas. Village committees announced the potential project

construction and affected area to villagers, and told them relevant regulations. Any addition of

new structures will not be counted into compensation.

2.3 PROJECT IMPACTS

31. The impacted administrative units of the land acquisition and house demolition of this

18

project are 40 groups of 11 villages in Xindun Town, Ganzhou District. The total demolition area

is 149,419 m2, among which, rural villagers’ houses demolished is 139,739 m2, affecting 1,186

persons from 310 households, while business/operating units demolished is 9,680 m2, affecting

23 households, 68 employees. The total area of acquired land is 2,142.9 mu, among which,

1881.7 mu is rural farmland, 148.8 mu is housing site land, 79.36 mu is institutional land and

33.09 mu is state-owned land. 3,674 persons from 1,014 households are directly affected by

land acquisition. Because land will be readjusted and reassigned based on villager group within

all groups after the land acquisition, 8,652 persons from 2,388 households in these 40 groups 11

villages are all APs from land acquisition. It is estimated that 60 mu temporary land will be used

during the construction.

2.4 IMPACTS OF LAND ACQUISITION

2.6 Affected Vulnerable Groups

2.6.1 Identification of Affected Vulnerable Groups

46. Vulnerable groups refer to persons who are easy to be hurt and difficult to adapt to the

changes brought by the project construction. Vulnerable groups here are defined as poor

families or independents whose net income per capita is lower than locally official rural poverty

line. The local official poverty line is updated to CNY 2,300 per person annually in 2012. Usually,

vulnerable groups consist of:

(i) Lonely elder: the single elder who is over 65 years old and without a person

fulfilling the statutory duty of maintenance.

(ii) Single-parent family: the head of the family is single and has underage child.

(iii) Orphan: the children without parents and younger than 16 years old.

(iv) The disabled: the persons, in psychology, physiology or body constitution, having

some tissue or function lost or off-normal, or the ability of participating in some

activity in the normal way lost totally or partially (subject to holding the Disabled

Person Certificate of the People’s Republic of China). And

(v) Other families having special difficulties.

47. The determination of vulnerable groups is carried out in accordance with relevant

policies and regulations, and results of the field survey. In the implementation process, the RO

will confirm it through door-to-door interviews, neighboring interviews and proving of community

resident committee.

48. After the investigation and confirmation, it is found that no ethnic minority families will be

affected by the Project.

46

2.6.2 Affected Families of Vulnerable Groups

49. According to the socio-economic survey, there are 24 vulnerable families to be affected

by the Project, including 12 households whose land is acquired and 12 households whose

houses are demolished. The 24 vulnerable families account for 1% of total affected families. The

details of vulnerable groups are presented in Table 2-15. After detailed DMS, and according to

local poverty line, if the number of vulnerable households increases, the same support

measures will be applied to them.

3.3.8 APs’ Basic Understanding of land acquisition and housing demolition

(1) Basic Understanding of Socio-economic Development Situation in Project

Area

68. Among the APs interviewed, APs that are satisfied with their current income accounted

for more than 60% of the total. And there are a lot of people expect to earn more than the current

income. About 75% of APs think that their family income are almost equal to their expectation,

and also similar with the income of surrounding friends. However, nearly 15% of APs are not

satisfied with their household income. 13% believe that their income is lower than that of their

relatives or friends. 4% think it's far less than their income expectations. Family conditions

surveyed households are presented in Table 3-16.

Table 3-16: Family Conditions of Sample Households

4. satisfied 60% 63% 4. a bit high 6% 6%

5. Very satisfied 4% 7% 5. very high 6% 6%

69. APs interviewed are basically satisfied with socio-economic development of the project

area, housing conditions, and traffic conditions, employment opportunities for themselves and

their families and employment environment. But less than 10% of APs are dissatisfied. Other

35% APs think there is greater space for improvement of socio-economic development. APs

think the problems in economic development situation of the project area are mainly shown

from: low level of development of economic, commerce and services, fewer employment

opportunities, transportation and shopping is not convenient, poor infrastructure such as roads,

less contact with other urban areas, information exchange is not smooth and other aspects.

Based on this understanding, they believe that at this stage the focus of the project area

development should be on the following nine aspects: (i) housing construction; (ii) road

construction; (iii) urban overall transformation; (iv) speed up the construction of rural suburbs;

(v) speed up the commercial development; (vi) improve employment opportunity; (vii) reduce

69

pollution and improve the urban environment; and (viii) increase public cultural facilities, expand

public entertainment and sports space. To conclude, road construction can promote the area

develop ability, which is not only agreed by government, but also by the residents from project

area. Satisfaction remarks with the project area are presented in Table 3-17. The dissatisfaction

of project area socio-economic development ranking is shown in Table 3-18.

(2) Evaluation on Project Impact

70. About 64% of APs interviewed believe that after the improvement of all aspects of

infrastructure, the socio-economic situation of project area can develop rapidly. Table 3-12

shows APs’ views on how urban transportation improvement impacts on housing condition,

living condition, lifestyle and habits, family relationships, children's education, traffic, life quality

improvement and family future development. From the evaluation, APs interviewed overall

agreed on the project implementation. They believe the project can greatly improve the

transportation condition and living environment; the project can promote household economic

development, employment opportunities and children's education; and the project has little

impact on income and living quality promotion; but, housing, and lifestyle and habits will be

changed to a certain extent.

71. About 4% of APs interviewed believe resettlement has a negative impact on housing

conditions. Housing sites are scattered in the project area; most houses are constructed by

farmers themselves. The majority farmers expect the unified housing resettlement. Some

vulnerable groups, such as middle-aged farmers hold don’t like the resettlement because of

long-term living habits and health condition. But they are still willing to cooperate. Local

governments will assist them in moving to new apartments, and offer them priority to select

apartments considering their habits and health conditions. The details are shown in Table 3-19.

72. Among 100 APs interviewed, 25 individuals believe that housing demolition and land

acquisition can significantly improve their living standard. 2 individuals believe that housing

demolition and land acquisition don’t have impact on their living standard, which accounted for

5%. 50 individuals believe that the project will have some impact on land loss and housing but it

will not have a significant impact on their living standard. Middle-aged or aged people, who

commonly have less education, believe the project has disadvantage for them. To conclude, if

people don’t have special skills, they can’t well adapt to the new lifestyle; if don’t have land, the

employment and income can’t be well protected, and the life quality will decrease. Impact of land

acquisition and housing demolition is presented in Table 3-20.

(3) Extent and Ways to Know the Project

73. About 60% of APs interviewed know their houses or land is in the demolition or

acquisition list through pre-project survey, implementing advocacy, and research and activities

of resettlement planning. 58% have a preliminary understanding of the plan of road

reconstruction project. More than 80% have learned some of the local resettlement policies.

72

Research, distributing leaflets, community outreach, searching for comments on resettlement

program and announcements or publicity all improved the understanding of APs. During

implementation of the Project, announcements and publicity of ZPMO and relevant towns,

communities will play an important role in helping APs understand the project. Table 3-21 shows

APs most expect to know more about policies and standards of land compensation and housing

compensation, resettlement location. Concern for labor placement is the fourth priority and for

health care and pension are fifth and sixth.

74. Overall, APs expect a good resettlement policy. All of the APs expect the government to

formulate a good policy. Land acquisition and house demolition have deep relationship with

living conditions and development of APs in future, so APs are mostly concerned on policy of

resettlement. More than 75% of APs interviewed believe that the government will consider their

interests. They expect to get good placement policy from the government, and they basically

trust the government. Some people are optimistic on resettlement policy given by the

government.

3.4 Conclusions

75. According to the survey and analysis above, the following points can be concluded.

(i) Project has a good basis to meet the needs of social and economic development.

The traffic and construction environment have lagged far behind from overall

development need of Zhangye City and Ganzhou District. Further urban

73

construction will contribute to the development of logistics and business in project

area and the surrounding areas, which can further promote employment and

standards of production and living.

(ii) Project has a good public awareness foundation. APs have a good overview on the

project and they are well aware of and positive with the social, economic and

environmental effects of the project in the future, which is helpful when APs

cooperate with the smooth implementation of the project.

(iii) Project has a good policy basis. According to the features of regional economic

and social development, the relevant government departments increase the

advocacy efforts on the project and its related policy, which has achieved good

results that not only help the APs understand the objectives and significance of

project implementation, but also reduce concerns for the project negative impact

on the society and their interests. In formulating relevant programs of

compensation, resettlement and reconstruction, the government emphasized on

learning the past experience, and integrated it into the current project to making

the policies and programs of compensation and resettlement. The government

effectively took the interests of APs into account, which built a good policy

foundation for the implementation of the project.

(iv) The survey showed APs are urgent to know more details of project implementation

plans, so it is necessary to give them systematic, targeted project publicity, which

not only can promote the knowledge of the project through regular channels, then

eliminate the concerns arising because of misunderstanding, but also can help

them understand the project, then complement the smooth implementation of the

project.

76. As the demolition involves the vital interests of APs, therefore, how to balance the

interests of all parties to conclude the best compensation plan, and to do the appropriate work

after resettlement are one of the keys to make the resettlement plan.

4.3.2 Abstracts of related regulations and rules of Gansu Province

94. Land compensation and resettlement subsidy of cultivated land will follow the provisions

of the Land Administration Law (Article 47). The land compensation and resettlement subsidy

for other land areas (non-farmland) and attachments as well as green crops will follow the

following standard. Land compensation: the compensation for the acquired land areas for

township village enterprises, public facilities, and community services should be 2 to 4 times of

the annual average output value (AAOV) of the cultivated land for the past three years. The

compensation for housing plot should follow 3 to 5 times of the AAOV of the cultivated land in

the village. The compensations for waste land and unused land should follow 2 times of the

AAOV of the cultivated land in the village. Resettlement Subsidy: The resettlement subsidy for

the acquired land areas for township village enterprises, public facilities, community services,

and housing plots should be based on the number of persons requiring economic rehabilitation,

which will be based on dividing the acquired land areas and per capita land holding in the

affected village. For each person who needs economic rehabilitation, the resettlement subsidy

will be set at 2 to 3 times of the AAOV. However, such a resettlement subsidy should not exceed

7 times of the AAOV. For acquired waste land and unused land, no resettlement subsidy should

Government on Deepening Reform and Strengthening Land Management, 48# issue

(2005))

4.3.3 ADB’s Relevant Policies on Involuntary Resettlement

97. ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (June 2009) provides systematic guiding policies and

operation instructions for the resettlement of its loan projects.

98. The objectives and principles of involuntary resettlement by ADB are:

(i) If possible, involuntary resettlement should be avoided.

(ii) If resettlement is unavoidable, all feasible options should be explored and the

scope of resettlement should be as small as possible.

(iii) Ensure that the displaced persons have the same economic and social conditions

before and after the project.

(iv) Improve the living standard of displaced poor and other vulnerable groups.

99. The principles of involuntary resettlement by ADB consists of

(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 displaced persons, including a gender analysis,

specifically related to resettlement impacts and risks.

(ii) 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

82

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.

(iii) 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.

(iv) 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.

(v) 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.

(vi) 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.

(vii) 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.

83

(viii) 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.

(ix) 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) Pay compensation and provide other resettlement entitlements before physical or

economic displacement. Implement the resettlement plan under close supervision

throughout project implementation.

(xii) 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.

4.3.4 Comparison of ADB’s involuntary resettlement policies with the PRC’s LAR

policies

100. Generally speaking, there are many similarities between the ADB’s involuntary

resettlement policies and the PRC’s LAR policies, which include:

(i) Both of them attach an importance to avoiding or reducing resettlement during the

planning and design stage of a project;

(ii) Both of them attach an importance to the restoration and improvement of the

livelihood of APs;

(iii) Both of them attach an importance to the openness and transparency of the

resettlement policies;

84

(iv) Both of them attach an importance to the participation and awareness of the public

during resettlement;

(v) Both of them require that the formulation and implementation of the resettlement

compensation standards must be based on the law and according to the law.

101. However, there are still some differences in some aspects between ADB’s involuntary

resettlement policies and the PRC’s LAR policies, which include:

(i) ADB attaches more importance to the planning prior to the implementation of

resettlement, and it requires that a feasible RP must be compiled;

(ii) The ADB’s resettlement policies require that during resettlement, all losses of all

APs must be compensated according to replacement costs, including those people

having no legal land ownership. However, the LAR policies of the PRC provide a

different compensation policy to unlicensed buildings.

(iii) ADB attaches more importance to the special care extended to the vulnerable

people during resettlement; and

(iv) ADB attaches more importance to monitoring and checking during resettlement,

including the use of a professional monitor that is independent from the

implementing agencies and design institute.

102. Based on the above analysis, during the preparation for resettlement, this Project takes

full account of the relevant policies of ADB and takes the following measures to meet the

demands of ADB:

(i) The preparation of the Project must be based on concrete socio-economic survey

and physical survey, and the RP must be prepared in details;

(ii) Special care must be given to vulnerable people during resettlement

implementation;

(iii) Make compensation to illegal buildings constructed before the cut-off time, taking

the buildings as temporary buildings;

(iv) Establish internal and external monitoring systems for resettlement.

103. With the above measures, the ADB’s resettlement policies and the PRC’s LAR policies

will be compatible and will facilitate the smooth implementation of resettlement of the Project.

85

4.4 TARGET OF RESETTLEMENT

104. During the resettlement preparation and implementation, the following targets shall be

striving for:

(i) Minimizing land acquisition and house demolishment. Minimizing impact on local

life and production.

(ii) The RP should be compiled based on LAR compensation standards, for the

purpose of improving or resuming original local life and production standard.

(iii) Production development compensation should be offered to increase working

opportunities in the secondary and tertiary industries.

(iv) Encouraging APs’ participation in the RP planning, implementation and monitoring.

4.5 COMPENSATION CONDITIONS

105. The following APs and organizations are entitled to receive the compensation: (i)

persons whose houses are to be demolished; (ii) persons indirectly affected; (iii) persons whose

lands are to be acquired; and (iv) affected enterprises and institutions.

106. All people affected by land acquisition and house demolishment are entitled to receive

compensation based on their actual losses of assets which existed before the date (cut-off date:

December 31, 2012) when project design or project engineering survey was finished. Lands

reclaimed newly and houses built newly after the cut-off date, and any land improvement or

planting of trees after signed land acquisition agreement will not be compensated.

4.6 COMPENSATION PRINCIPLES

107. The compensation shall be implemented in accordance with following principles:

(i) Based on detailed measurement survey, a negotiation on housing and

attachments compensation with the APs should be conducted.

(ii) All APs and affected stores, no matter with licensed or not, should be taken into

consideration.

(iii) In case that the original livelihood cannot be resumed, new working opportunities

should be offered.

(iv) Affected vulnerable groups should be the prior consideration in compensation,

movement, and employment.

86

(v) All APs should be informed about the right, compensation standard, rehabilitation

plan and project schedule.

(vi) Supervision, monitoring and evaluation (M&E) are required to deal with relevant

implementation issues.

(vii) Compensation for acquired houses, land and other properties shall be calculated

according to full replacement cost. The calculation of full replacement cost will be

based on fair market value, transaction cost, accrued interest, transition and

restoration cost and other potential reasonable costs, without deduction for age

depreciation or salvaged materials. Affected families due to demolition will be

given preferential treatment when they buy the relocated houses provided by the

government.

(viii) The purpose of project construction is to promote urban development in the future.

Therefore, the local farmers will lose part of their lands because of the Project at

this time but will experience future city expansion and lose more land. ADB’s

Safeguard Policy Statement (June 2009) requires the borrowers to evaluate the

future impact of involuntary resettlement. Considering that the farmers are likely to

eventually lose all lands, a livelihood restoration plan will be designed for them.

The ZMG promises that similar compensation standards will be adopted when the

land of families is acquired in the same village due to future expansion of the city.

(ix) All affected shops/enterprises (licensed or not), regardless of forced relocation or

not, shall obtain compensation for loss of earnings according to full replacement

cost. Their livelihood will also be restored or improved.

(x) The compensation and restoration measures will make sure the living standard of

vulnerable families shall be improved.

4.7 COMPENSATION STANDARDS

4.7.1 Land Compensation Standards

108. Compensation standards are set up according to relative laws and regulations of the

PRC, Gansu Provincial Government, ZMG and ADB. Rural collective land acquisition

compensation includes land compensation fees, resettlement fees, compensation for ground

attachments, young crops fee and taxes. The details of land compensation are presented in

87

Table 4-1. According to “Notice on Issuing Comprehensive Land Prices Based on Different

Regions and Unified Annual Production Value Standards” of Gansu Province (November 2009),

the compensation standard was made. The AAOV is CNY 1,200 to 1,399.6 per mu, while the

compensation is 16 times of the AAOV, e.g. CNY 21,000 to 22,000 per mu, which include land

compensation fees and resettlement fees. The transfer price 198000/mu for Water Plant Land is

consulted between enterprise and Xindun Forest. The transfer price of state owned land is

different from land acquisition price.

109. According to “Compensation Standards for Land Acquisition in Urban Planning Area in

Zhangye City” (Zhangye Municipal Government Document No.46, March 2010), the

compensation standard for cultivated land, collective construction and housing land is

CNY21,000 to 22,000; waste land is CNY4,000.

These rates are fixed according to the local economic and social development indicators and

the GDP estimates of income level of farmers, collected through repeated surveys. Based on

these results in March 2010, ZMG determined the land acquisition compensation standards of

the urban planning area. If during project implementation, Zhangye Municipal government (ZMG)

adjusts and improves the land compensation standards, ZMG will issue the documents with

improved standards again and new compensation will be implemented.

4.7.2 Compensation on House Demolition

(1) Rural residential housing

110. The compensation standards for house demolition in rural areas are presented in Table

4-2. To demolish the residential houses, subsidy of resettlement should be paid to cover the cost

of moving expenses. APs who resettle once and permanently should be paid for resettlement

subsidy once. APs who resettle temporarily should be paid for resettlement subsidy twice.

Resettlement subsidy is calculated on the basis of house demolition area. If the area of the

house demolished is below 140 m2, the subsidy is 400 yuan/household; if above 140 m2, the

subsidy is 3 yuan/square meter. An award of CNY 3,000/household is paid to the APs who sign

agreements and move within a stipulated time period. Transition subsidy of CNY

200/month/household is paid for 6 months to cover temporary accommodation costs during the

period when new housing is under construction. Compensation standard for ground attachments

is shown in Table 4-3. Compensation standard for trees is shown in Table 4-4.

V. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION AND CONSULTATION

113. In the decision process of the planning, design and implementation of the Project, the

ZGDFLMC and ZPMO took the opportunities of socioeconomic surveys and social effect

evaluation to propagandize the background information of the Project in various ways, made

consultations with all kinds of APs and discussed their common concerns. The public

participation and consultation provided a basis for the improvement of the RP.

5.1 PUBLIC PARTICIPATION AND CONSULTATION ACTIVITIES PERFORMED

114. As to all significant topics for discussion involved in the planning stage of resettlement,

PO 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. About 19% of AHs

participated in activities. In addition, during the survey for the RP, the village committees noticed

the potential land acquisition and house demolition, and land readjustment to all APs. Most APs

agreed to the current compensation standards and land readjustment.

5.2 FEEDBACK ON PUBLIC PARTICIPATION AND CONSULTATION

115. From May 2011 to December 2012, GDFLMC carried out socioeconomic 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 RP. Feedback on public participation and negotiation

up to now is shown in Table 5-2.

3 The negotiation of resettlement locations have taken place and all new housing will be constructed in the

original villages of the APs.

Table 5-2: Feedback on Public Participation and Consultation

Item Problems Reasons and Results Measures for Improvement

Land requisition and relocation

The road project will demolish some houses.

It makes residents lose original houses, affecting their daily life.

Try to avoid or reduce the compact districts of houses passed through in the design of the project. Project design should try to implement on the current base, reduce scale of land acquisition and house relocation

Most of APs haven’t received relevant information of the project through formal channels, especially for definite LAR time.

Relocated HHs and tenants will be affected and might be able to arrange their own living timely.

Determine the affected scope as soon as possible and inform affected population of them timely,so relocated HHs can build new houses timely and tenants can arrange their living in advance.

At the same time, it is advised that relevant information of the project should be widely spread to give affected population profound understanding and sufficient knowledge in popular ways, such as broadcast, television, local drama, song, regular meeting, etc.

Compen- sation funds

The masses are concerned about the compensation and allocation of the funds.

The compensation and allocation of the funds are related to living support of relocated HHs.

The resettlement divisions should disseminate relevant compensation rate before the construction and make the masses well-informed.

Allocation mode of compensation funds.

Some residents worry that compensation funds won’t be allocated fully or will be held back.

It is advised that strict institutional and financial disclosure should be implemented, such as disclosure of compensation rate, measurement size, evaluation grade, etc. After the determination of compensation funds, they should be posted for disclosure and subject to the participation and supervision of affected population. House compensation is directly allocated to the peasants in the form of bankbooks. Land compensation is disbursed to village groups first, and then to AHs equally after farmland readjustment. Village collective or groups will not retain any compensation for farmland.

process of construction to avoid unnecessary conflicts. Try to repair and rebuild damaged public facilities as well as power and communication facilities.

Noise pollution Because traffic on roads causes a lot of noise, normal work and rest of the residents living near to roads will be affected.

Construct green belts at both sides of the road during the project construction; in special road section, sound-insulated wall may be set to reduce noise.

Auxiliary facilities

Some auxiliary facilities are to be established.

Traffic facilities for crossing the road.

It is advised to build pedestrian bridges or underground passages in places where there are schools or the population is dense.

Mass participation

Let APs take part in each cycle of the project.

Let APs share project benefits and promote the enthusiasm of local governments at all levels and the masses.

To hand out resettlement manuals and establish channels for complaints and feedback, for instance, hot line for complaints and suggestion boxes. To set up a consultative system. To hold as many as possible consultation meetings participated by project office, street offices, and representatives of villagers’ committees and APs.

5.3 CONSULTATION PLAN WITH AFFECTED POPULATION

116. With the continual advance of the preparation and construction of the Component,

GDFLMC shall carry out further negotiation activities. Main contents of negotiation include:

Concrete opinions of APs on the engineering design. Before the construction,

GDFLMC shall inform the APs along the lines of the design information and the

specific effects of the project. At the beginning of the construction, GDFLMC will

implement exploratory survey along the lines and determine the concrete positions

and sizes and so on of structures. For places with which the masses aren’t very

satisfied, GDFLMC will organize the design department again to revise the design

on the premise that engineering standards are met.

Arrangement of compensation for relocated households and payment procedures.

100

Measures of enterprises and institutions for avoiding being affected and

recovering.

How to rehabilitate electricity and water supply functions affected during the

construction period. And

Other problems concerned by APs.

117. See Table 5-3 for time arrangement for further consultation meetings of ROs at all levels

and APs. According to work arrangement of the Resettlement Division, district and street offices,

villages (communities) will hold consultation meetings and report relevant situations to the

Resettlement Division. Besides participating in the consultation activities organized by the

Resettlement Division, monitoring departments also should hold meetings on other monitoring

problems and collect the complaints and suggestions of APs, and then provide monitoring

information to land acquisition departments at all levels.

profound investigations, the laws and regulations of Gansu Province and PRC and the ADB’s

Safeguard Policy Statement (June 2009), aiming to rehabilitate and improve the AP life in the

short term, are developed after the consultation of the affected enterprises and institutions, local

inhabitants and local government. These standards take the full consideration of the various

implementing construction projects and the operability of the future construction process.

VI. IMPLEMENTATION PLAN FOR RESETTLEMENT AND REHABILITATION

6.1 OBJECTIVES AND PRINCIPLES

6.1.1 Objectives of resettlement and rehabilitation

122. In accordance with the policies on involuntary resettlement of ADB and the requirements

of relevant national laws and regulations, the overall objective of the resettlement of the Project

is to rehabilitate as soon as possible and improve as much as possible the living conditions and

production of affected population and enterprises and public institutions. The concrete

objectives are as follows:

(i) AHs will obtain compensation calculated by replacement cost, and the area,

structure and living environment of their reconstructed houses may reach and

exceed the levels prior to relocation;

103

(ii) All kinds of attachments to the ground affected are compensated by replacement

cost;

(iii) Public buildings and special facilities are compensated by replacement cost and

may be rehabilitated to their original status;

(iv) After reconstruction of enterprises, their production scale and capability as well as

employment of employees will not be affected. No labor force in affected

enterprises will lose their jobs permanently;

(v) Public facilities and environment of affected communities will be rehabilitated to

their original status and even improved;

(vi) Rural labors whose land is acquired will be compensated, and their income will be

maintained and increased through improve agricultural production structures and

conditions. No farmers will lose their livelihood due to the land acquisition; and

(vii) With full consideration of land loss completely due to the new district construction

in future, concrete social security measures including skill training, local

employment introduction and assistance, local enterprise and businesses

development and assistance, and urban pension program, etc. should be applied

in a staged manner. Livelihood training in non-farm occupations will commence

under this project to begin the villager’s transition to urban residents.

6.1.2 Principles of Resettlement and Rehabilitation

123. Following principles shall be adopted during the resettlement and rehabilitation

implementation.

APs will participate in the whole process of resettlement.

124. For issues including compensation rates of houses and facilities, selection of sites of

resettlement, schedule of relocation, schedule of rehabilitation, fund disbursement, and

measures for rehabilitation of production and operation, APs or their representatives must be

involved and consulted with to reach an agreement. Symposia of representatives and

consultation meetings of affected residents or affected villagers will be held.

Compensation will be provided to the affected village committees first and then to

the APs after land readjustment in accordance with the provisions of this RP.

125. Set up special account for compensation fund to keep any unit, individual or villagers’

104

committee (community) (including every district, township and street) from retaining

compensation fund.

Compensation for houses, special facilities and attachments to the ground will be

calculated by replacement cost.

126. The amount of compensation shall not be retained by officials, depreciated or levied

taxes. The compensation obtained by property owners must be calculated by the publicized

rates. All the property of originally built structures shall belong to property owners, any unit or

individual has no right to claim them. The residual value of surplus material left after relocation

or the depreciation of original property shall not be deducted from compensation.

Help and care will be offered to vulnerable groups.

127. Vulnerable families should be given priority in selection of resettlement housing, offer of

information on resettlement housing, supply of low-rent housing, and purchase price of

affordable housing; and in employment opportunities created in the process of project

implementation, distribution of service networks at resettlement sites, etc.

Compensation for acquired houses, land and other properties shall be calculated

according to full replacement cost.

128. The calculation of full replacement cost will be based on fair market value, transaction

cost, accrued interest, transition and restoration cost and other potential reasonable costs.

Affected families due to demolition will be given preferential treatment when they buy the

relocated houses provided by the government.

129. “Fair market value” used here is to state how to evaluate the “replacement cost”. We use

“fair market values” in order for APs to receive enough compensation to get new houses or

apartment, and they should have houses to live after existing house demolition. Based on

current social and economic development in the Project site, the market value of houses will

increase, which should be considered when evaluate the replacement cost of houses. “Fair

market value” is based on “replacement cost” without depreciation.

The purpose of the Project is to promote urban development in the future.

Therefore, the local farmers will lose part of their lands because of the Project at

this time but will experience future city expansion and lose more land.

130. ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (June 2009) requires the borrowers to evaluate the

future impact of involuntary resettlement. Considering that the farmers are likely to lose all lands,

105

a livelihood restoration plan will be designed for them. The ZMG promises that similar

compensation standards will be adopted when the land of families is acquired in the same

village due to future expansion of the city.

All affected shops/enterprises (licensed or not), regardless of forced relocation or

not, shall obtain compensation for loss of earnings according to full replacement

cost.

131. Their livelihood will also be restored or improved. The compensation and restoration

measures will make sure the living standard of all affected shops/enterprises shall be improved.

6.2 THE RELOCATEES’ WILLINGNESS OF RESETTLEMENT

132. In order to ensure the process of resettlement and establish a procedure of public

participation and consultation for APs, the ZGDFLMC conducted the investigation, workshop,

and hearings with relocatees in terms of compensation policies, housing site selections and their

willingness and advice. The relocatees’ willingness of resettlement is summarized below.

6.3 House Relocation Plan for the Rural Residents

133. The Project will affect 1,186 people from 310 rural households due to house demolition.

All the 310 households are going to use centralized resettlement, and there is no scattered

resettlement. Especially, affordable apartments will be offered to 13 households with family

hardship, and the house price is calculated according to the cost price. The 13 households could

purchase relatively small affordable apartments according to their own circumstances. They can

also select better housing if they can.

134. For centralized resettlement, the ZGDFLMC is responsible for cooperating with local

governments to build housing estates for the resettlement. The basic principle is to standardize

the residential building program, hold to equity, fair, publicity, transparency and people’s satisfied

with it. In accordance with public participation to develop specific implementation plans, details

will be sorted out after discussions with representatives of villagers. The APs accept the concept

of centralized housing but will need facilities to support their continued farming activities.

Organization and leadership

135. Leading group of housing estates for resettlement will be constituted by election

according to the principle of public participation, and it will specifically responsible for the work of

community construction. The leader of the group will be the chief of Xindun Town, village leaders

106

and representatives of the masses.

Site selection of housing estates for resettlement

136. Site selection of housing estate for resettlement has to be in accordance with Zhangye

Urban Planning, and will affect people and units which possess the original land tenure. After the

land selection procedure, it will report to the Zhangye Municipal Land and Resources Bureau for

approval to commence land acquisition for the resettlement site, design and construction of

facilities and buildings. Construction of new houses or apartment buildings will be commenced

before demolition of existing houses. APs will need to be in transition for at least a period of six

months but less than 18 months. They will receive transitional compensation, and can find

transitional houses in the same villages. Local government will will assist APs to find transitional

houses.

Planning and financing new house construction

137. According to discussion and consultation with affected villages and representatives of

villagers, and combined local development plans, following resettlement options are planned.

(i) Centralized Relocation and Construction of Apartment Buildings. The total area of

housing estates for resettlement is 68 mu, 13 resettlement buildings, 565

households for Centralized resettlement. The new buildings is distributed in the

original villages, and are about one to two kilometers far from existing houses of

APs. 5 kinds of apartments in about 50, 76, 80, 95 and 112 m2, respectively, are

identified in accordance with opinions of the majority of APs. Based on CNY1,000

per square meter of direct cost (cost for materials and labor only) of buildings in

Zhangye in 2011, the apartment price above different sizes is CNY 75,000,

114,000, 120,000, 142,500 and 168,000, respectively. The area of houses to be

demolished is relatively big and average living area per HH is about 277.5sqm.

Since the house sizes are big on an average they would receive a compensation of

about CNY 101944. Based on the cost price of CNY 1000 per sqm for new houses,

AHs can get an area of 102sqm on an average. None of the AHs have house

structures just made of wood. In addition, the quality of new apartments is much

better than what they have now. All AHs can afford new apartments.

12 HHs in Bayi village will receive centralized relocation. Village committee will

provide assistance when affected HHs require.

107

(ii) Affordable Houses. 13 affordable houses/apartments will be provided to low

income HHs. Ganzhou Government promises to provide new apartments to all

vulnerable people (13 households affected by house demolition). The affected HHs

can receive new apartments first if the housing compensation is lower than the

actual construction cost. And then they can pay the remaining later. The GDFLMC

is responsible for financing the buildings.

(iii) The new housing will have much better quality than exiting houses in:

a) The apartment buildings will be constructed in the same villages, so it is not

the same to the buildings in urban area in prices.

b) The government will be responsible for all infrastructural construction like

water supply pipeline, sewage water pipeline, roads and power supply, etc.

The cost for the infrastructure construction is included on the RP. So the

apartment cost will be much cheaper than that in urban area.

c) The direct cost APs to pay for new apartment is not more than 1,000

CNY/sqm.

d) Most of APs have a larger house construction area than apartment area, so

they can use compensation to pay the apartment. None of the APs have

houses just made of wood.

e) Current house compensation standards are basis on evaluation of existing

house prices. In addition, “fair market price” will be considered during

calculation of replacement cost to ensure all APs can move in new apartments.

“Fair market price” is based on replacement cost without depreciation.

f) The quality of construction material is much better and the living conditions of

apartments are much better than existing brick-wood or brick-earth-wood

houses.

Project bidding

138. Resettlement building construction and the related infrastructure project are going along

according to Law of People’s Republic of China on Bid Invitation and Bidding and Gansu

provincial Tendering Law, and under the supervision of Zhangye City Supervision Bureau and

the Urban Construction Bureau. Zhangye Bid Message Centre took charge for tendering. During

tendering the leadership group, supervision group and representatives of the masses are going

108

to participate in the hearing of witnesses, by which to insure equity, fair, publicity and

transparency.

Quality management

139. Adhering to the guideline of "quality first, elaborate construction”, villages retain the

appropriate supervision company to quality supervision. Each village will retain a person who is

familiar with building to join in the supervision of the project, in order to insure best quality works

for people feeling comfortable to live.

Capital management

140. Funds for resettlement buildings have to be managed by a special account. All expenses

for resettlement building are going to be supervised by construction leading group leader, and

signed by all members of group except the leader. After the completion of resettlement building,

there will be a hearing for funds utilization and final settlement. Village project construction

leading group will report on the progress resettlement building, the utilization of funds and so on

to AP representatives. Every quarter, the condition of the use of funds will be put in the public,

and accepted supervision by the masses.

Floor allocation scheme

141. After the completion of resettlement building, the building construction leading group will

organize meetings to determine the floor allocation scheme, following the principle of equity, fair,

publicity and transparency, they will draw floor lots. After the floor plan is determined, in the

publicity, they will accept supervision by the masses and listen to the opinions of the masses

Property management

142. After the completion of resettlement building, all tenants will convene conferences

composed of representatives, to discuss the housing estate property management, establish the

relevant regulations of property management, and vote a management committee or owners of

Property Management Company set up under the village committee.

Program approval

143. Zhangye Municipal Land and Resources Bureau will examine and approve the use of

housing estates for resettlement. Zhangye Municipal Planning Management Bureau will

examine and approve the site selection of resettlement area construction project. Ganzhou

Development and Reform Commission will register the resettlement area construction projects.

109

Relevant construction taxes will be excluded, and direct cost of apartments is not more than

1,000 CNY per square meter based on the cost of 2011 buildings.

144. The housing resettlement plan is shown in Table 6-1. Given the expectations of further

land acquisition in the future, centralized resettlement approach is necessary to avoid moving

people twice in the future. According to the current plan, new resettlement buildings will be

constructed in 2012 and completed in December 2015.

6.4 RESETTLEMENT AND REHABILITATION OF AFFECTED ENTERPRISES OR

BUSINESSES AND INSTITUTIONS

145. The project will affect a total number of 18 household enterprises or businesses, 3 local

institutions, and 2 state plants (shutdown already), 68 employees, and 9,680 m2 of structures

dispersed in each sub-component affected area. The land and structures used by the household

enterprises and institutions are owned by the village collective, who built these structures for

renting. According to the field investigation, the affected structures are divided into two kinds:

one kind is non-productive, non-working facilities and buildings, such as toilets, electricity

distribution room, unused buildings; such facilities are directly compensated in cash, or restored

during construction so that it has no damages to the surrounding population .The second kind is

productive and working enterprises. The 20 enterprises requiring whole demolition are leasing

businesses, so the alternative sites for business operation should be arranged before the

demolition. There is no transition period and actual business losses except for the moving time,

the cost of which is covered by using the fees for relocation. Additionally, most of the affected

enterprises are only engaged in small-scale business, they are easy to find and move to new

alternative sites. Chemical fertilizer plant and farm chemical company have stopped their

production. They agreed to provide the land for the Project after clarifying and disposing their

assets.

146. According to the above analysis, structure demolition has minor effects on business

activities. Enterprises and employees don’t suffer any loss. The enterprises will obtain relocation

subsides. Business income and employee wages will not be reduced; should any losses occur,

the owner or employee will be entitled to compensation. GDFLMC will help APs obtain house

sites for relocation and production, and ensure the entire process.

147. Among 24 AH enterprises and institutions, Nanhua Village Committee and Beiguan

Village Neighborhood Committee will be reconstructed. The two chemical plants have stopped

their production operation and will sell their assets. Other 20 household enterprises and

institutions will continue their businesses in the nearby residential resettlement area. They will

receive first floor of apartments for opening their businesses. They also can receive

compensation of CNY 25 per square meter for suspending their business, and CNY 400 per

enterprise for moving. Resettlement and Rehabilitation Plan of AH Enterprises and Institutions is

shown in table 6-2.

6.5 REHABILITATION OF THE LIVELIHOOD CONDITIONS OF FARMERS AFFECTED

BY LAND ACQUISITION

6.5.1 The Overall plan

148. Resettlement plan fully reflects the participatory approaches and concepts. Resettlement

policies are as follows: to respect the wishes of the APs and to maintain their existing production

and livelihoods. According to the survey and consultation with local APs, compensation for land

acquisition and resettlement will be provided by the Project according to relevant policies and

regulations. The compensation will be disbursed to each affected group and then be allocated

averagely to all households in the group after the group’s farmland is readjusted or reallocated

to each household in the group. The APs can use the compensation to improve existing

agricultural conditions and irrigation systems that belong to each household, or invest in other

sidelines or non-agricultural production activities.

149. The resettlement and restoration principals are formulated from the policy as follows:

(i) The resettlement planning is based on physical indicators of land acquisition and

demolition and the compensation for land acquisition and subsidy criteria.

(ii) Resettlement, combined with regional development, resource development,

economic development and environmental protection, reflects the sustainability of

the development of local economy and the affected farmers. Taking into account

the local natural and socio-economic conditions, practical RP should be formulated

to restore and develop production, and create basic conditions for long-term

sustainable development.

(iii) Resettlement plan should be formulated in accordance with the "benefit production

and facilitate livelihood" principle.

(iv) Consider fully and broadly, handle the relationship of the state, collectives, and

individuals correctly. And

(v) APs meet or exceed the original standard of living by way of making full use of

local natural resources, building irrigation facilities, reclaiming land, improving land

quality and strengthening agricultural strength.

150. According to APs’ advice and suggestions, combined with the actual situation of the

affected areas, the basic recovery plan is determined as follows:

118

(i) Try to resettle APs in the same village they are living now so that they can keep the

original way of life and production as well as social relationship, recover and

improve their production and income levels after land acquisition, and enhance the

initiative and adaptation in living and production. All APs will be relocated in their

original villages. Zhangye Municipal Government has considered local future

development. During project implementation (2013-2015), ZMG cannot acquire all

farmland in the project and thus project APs cannot be transformed to urban

residents, because they will still have adequate land to cultivate. About half of

farmers will still work on farmland, while others can work on non-farm. ZMG has a

plan to train APs in skills for non-farm employment and has implemented training

plan for many years. More and more farmers leave farmland and earn salary in

other sectors and ZMG will ensure a smooth transition of livelihoods from rural to

urban.The households affected by land acquisition can get land compensation and

resettlement fees. The compensation fund will be disbursed to affected groups,

and then to each household of the groups after the remaining farmland in the

groups is readjusted.

6.5.2 Rehabilitation measures for APs’ production

151. In the project impact survey and resettlement planning process, by using participatory

methods of work, the resettlement planning group held meetings with the leaders of town and

village involved and consulted with representatives on proposed compensation policies and

rehabilitation measures.

152. Impacts of land acquisition vary from village to village. Therefore, the livelihood

rehabilitation plan should be based on the degree of impacts, the availability of remaining land

resources and the willingness of the APs. Land compensation fees and resettlement subsidy will

be disbursed to affected groups directly and then distributed averagely to each household after

land in the groups is readjusted, which will reduce land lose of the direct APs and enable them

increase income levels according to their different family characteristics.

153. In the process of land acquisition, the land administration department will distribute

regulations and standards of land compensation and resettlement fees and will hold

resettlement compensation hearings. GDFLMC willhandle land acquisition procedures as per

the regulations. After the land acquisition application is approved, Zhangye Ganzhou Land and

Resources Bureau will process land acquisition documents according to the regulations of the

119

land acquisition procedures, and sign an agreement for the land acquisition with affected village

groups, and make it public.

154. As indicated in Table 2-5, the land acquisition for the Project will acquire a total of

1881.66 mu of farmland, affecting a total of 2388 households from 40 groups of 11 villages and

with average land loss of 15.6%. The total affected2388 households will lose 15.6% of their total

farmland in average. Among them, 902 households or 35.0% of AHs will lose less than 10% of

their land; 1205 households or52.5% of AHs will lose 10-30% of their land;281 households or

12.5% of AHs will lose 30-50% of their land, and there is no household losing more than 50% of

their land. Before the land acquisition, they have 5.1 mu of farmland in household average, or

1.4 mu per capita. After the land acquisition, they remain 4.8 mu of farmland in household

average, or 1.3 mu per capita.

155. According to the relevant regulations of national and Zhangye City, the compensation

standard is 21,000 yuan /mu for the cultivated land. If the compensation is saved in banks, the

APs can receive bank’s annual interest income more than the annual loss of agricultural income

due to their land loss, assuming an annual income loss of 680 yuan/mu and annual interest rate

of 3.5%. However, the objective of resettlement planning is to invest the compensation in

alternative livelihoods so APs will be able to generate higher and sustainable incomes to keep

pace with rising cost of living and narrow the gap with urban residents.

156. As a result of project construction and urban development, there will be more companies

invest in the project area, thus it will provide more employment opportunities. Through this

project training plan as presented in Section 6.6, the APs’ competition ability will get promoted. If

a worker works for 6 months per year, he can earn income 7,200 yuan. With the traffic situation

improved, their surplus housing can be rented. If the monthly rental of one room is 150 to 200

yuan, the yearly rent will be 1800 - 2400 yuan.

157. Through consultation with the affected villagers, a detailed economic recovery plan is

proposed. This includes: (i) improve the planting structure and choose special seeds to increase

production, such as corn and wheat, and replant higher value cash crops, such as fine

vegetables; (ii) non-farming activities, such as Happy Farmers restaurants and shops faced to

streets; and (iii) deposit compensation into bank for interest, which is a possibility for older

farmers. The AHs’ resettlement scheme is shown in Table A3 in Annex I. As shown in Table A3-1

to Table A3-4 in Annex I, after the compensation and resettlement, net income of AHs will be

higher than that before the land requisition.

(i) Rehabilitation measures for those who lose land less than 10% (902 households):

120

The affected farmers will receive land compensation (CNY 21,000 per mu) and

deposit parts of it in the bank for interest income; parts of it will plant kinds of

special planting and investment, of which, 1732.25 mu will plant corn, 382.10 mu

will plant fine vegetables,2165.31 mu will plant wheat. In addition, 3 households

will use the compensation to invest in shops-. The gross investment will be

2,654,904 yuan. The net income will be 5,669,190 yuan, and the interest on

deposit will be 119,039 yuan, so the total net income will be 5,980,979 yuan. The

income after land acquisition will be 2,840,059 yuan higher than that before the

land acquisition, so these rehabilitation measures will improve the income of

farmers who lose their contracted land, as shown in Table A3-1 in Annex I.

(ii) Rehabilitation measures for those who lose land in 10%-30% (1205 households):

The land loss farmers will receive land compensation (CNY 21,000 per mu) and

deposit part of it in the bank for interest income, invest part of it to plant kinds of

special planting and investment, of which, 2411 mu will plant corn, 482 mu will

plant fine vegetables, 1929 mu will plant wheat. In addition, 2 households will use

the compensation to develop agri-tourism (Happy Farmer House), and 6

households will use the compensation to develop shops. The gross investment will

be 3,538,198 yuan. The net income from planting will be 6,485,809 yuan, and the

interest on deposit funds will be 597,814 yuan, so the total net income will

be7,597,622 yuan. The income after land acquisition will be 3,650,902 yuan higher

than that before the land acquisition, so this rehabilitation measures will improve

the income of farmers who lose their contracted land, as shown in Table A3-2 in

Annex I.

(iii) Rehabilitation measures those who lose 30%-50% (281 households) of their contracted

Land:

The land loss farmers will receive land compensation (CNY 21,000 per mu) and

deposit part of it in the bank for interest income, and invest part of it to plant kinds

of special planting and investment, of which,532.3 mu will plant corn, 212.9 mu will

plant fine vegetables, 319.4 mu will plant wheat. In addition, 2 households will use

the compensation to develop agri-tourism (Happy Farmer House), and 4

121

households will use the compensation to develop shops-. The gross investment

will be 1,131,577 yuan. The net income will be 2,012,112 yuan, and the interest on

deposit will be 409,767 yuan, so the total net income will be 2,678,879 yuan. The

income after land acquisition will be 1,539,199 yuan higher than that before the

land acquisition, so this rehabilitation measures will improve the income of farmers

who lose their contracted land, as shown in Table A3-3 in Annex I.

Conclusion: after all these measures the production and living level of the APs will not be

declined.

158. The risk of income reduction of APs will be decreased due to the land

reassignment/readjustment within village groups. The procedure of the land readjustment

includes (i) determine amount of land to be readjusted and the number of APs in a group; (ii)

allocate all farmland and remaining farmland to all APs in average in the group; (iii) disburse

farmland compensation to all villagers equally within the group; and (iv) keep original contractors

with their original farmland as much as possible. With the support of local government (i.e.,

Labor Bureau), APs will receive relevant livelihood trainings to improve their agricultural planting

structures, develop agricultural business and will be assisted to find employment in local

industrial and business areas.

6.6 Training for farmers who will lose their land

159. The Project is located in the suburban area of Zhangye City. There are a lot of farmers

engaged in the secondary or tertiary industry skills. With the city development, more and more

farmers will lose their land. Through the training, the APs' employment ability will be improved.

The ZGDFLMC and local governments can help them to find new job opportunities in the city

development. Through the investigation and discussion, it is found in the labor age for most

farmers, they like to learn some useful skills. According to the Gansu Obtain Employment and

Reemployment Fund Management Interim Regulations (Gansu Finance [2006] 103), qualified

training institutions can apply for a one-time occupation training allowance (exemption). The

labor department and other relevant departments jointly designated training institutions and the

training institutions for courses. Before the training courses starting, to training courses

(including training programs, students, duration and method of training) report to the labor and

financial authority. After the training, qualification training institutions can apply for occupation

training allowance. According to the plan of Ganzhou Labor Bureau from 2010 to 2014, 1,500

122

farmers will be trained every year based on situation of surplus rural laborers and local social

and economic development . And 50% of them will be women. According to the national relevant

policies and regulations, the Project will undertake training to farmers lost land, and they will

accept the livelihood restoration on training courses for their new jobs.

160. Before the training, the ZGDFLMC and local governments will conduct a conventional

6.7 RESETTLEMENT AND REHABILITATION OF AFFECTED VULNERABLE GROUPS

162. Basic budget of living allowances: Ganzhou District Rural Residents of the minimum

living security line is 1,000 yuan4 per person per year. Rural per capita income which is less

than 1,000 yuan can receive government subsidies to make up to 1,000 yuan.

163. Health insurance for people with low incomes: Ganzhou District of urban low-income

families can pay 100 yuan per year of medical insurance (10 yuan by individual, and 90 yuan by

government ), rural families can pay 70 yuan of medical insurance per year (20 yuan by

164. Subsidies Housing and Low-rent Houses for people with low incomes: families without

houses (or apartments) or extremely poor or with houses with less than 16 m2 per capita in

Ganzhou District are eligible to purchase subsidized housing or rent low-cost housing. A

procedure for purchasing subsidized houses includes application, verification and publicity. A

procedure for renting low-cost houses includes application, registration and waiting in turn in

order to protect the basic living requirements of the low income people. Eligible APs will receive

preference to get this type of housing.

165. Ganzhou District will ensure that vulnerable groups can apply to the street/ community

administration, in accordance with the relevant provisions approved to receive " Wubao Card","

Low Assurance" or" Disability Certificate", so that they can receive a lot of help in the food

purchasing, transportation, and health care. Also, by running welfare enterprises, Ganzhou

District will carry out according to the proportion of employment and supporting the

self-employment form, helping the disabled employment, take temporary relief and concentrated

support and initiate welfare institution and other welfare measures, to provide special care for

disabled persons.

166. After years of exploration and practice, Ganzhou district social security system

framework has been initially formed. Through the implementation of social security measures,

this project will ensure the basic needs of life and living requirements of affected the vulnerable

4 The poverty line is updated to 2,300CNY per person annually in 2012. New number of poor households has not been identified

by Zhangye Civil Affairs Bureau yet. The PMO will update affected poor HHs according to new poverty line during the project

implementation.

125

groups are resolved.

167. The RO and village committees will provide special supports for vulnerable people who

will be affected by the Project.

(i) The villager committee will offer laborers to help vulnerable families in

resettlement.

(ii) The villagers committee will arrange transition houses for vulnerable families if

needed.

(iii) The families of vulnerable groups have priority in selecting housing area, house

type and location of collectively re-constructed houses.

(iv) For houses suitable for small business in relocation site, the vulnerable families

are given priority to rent them.

(v) A total of CNY 30,000 is set up as the supporting fund of vulnerable group and

other households who need special assistance.

living subsidy.

(vii) Priority for replacement farmland if they have capable workers.

6.8 Specialized facilities for recovery

168. The project impact on professional facilities mainly refers to the electricity,

telecommunications and water supply facilities. The resettlement division of the GDFLMC will

discuss and consult relocation measures of the facilities with relevant companies or

administrative agencies and provide compensation for the facilities based on replacement cost.

The construction for rehabilitation of the facilities will be completed before land acquisition in

order to reduce any negative impacts on local people..

6.9 Future city development after the resettlement of farmers

169. The purpose of construction of the Project is to promote urban development in the future.

Therefore, the local farmers will lose part of their lands because of the Project at this time but will

experience future city expansion and lose more land. In this Project, after land acquisition and

farmland readjustment in affected groups, the APs still have farmland of at least 0.98 mu per

capita. However, ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (June 2009) requires the borrowers to

evaluate the future impact of involuntary resettlement. Considering that the farmers are likely to

126

lose all lands, a livelihood restoration plan will be designed for them. The ZMG promises that

similar compensation standards (rates are adjusted according to local economic development to

ensure APs’ restoration) will be adopted when the land of families is acquired in the same village

due to future expansion of the city.

170. Economic restructuring: The village collective economic organizations will be

transformed into industry and trade companies. Detailed plans will be prepared according to

status of land loss and local economic development characteristics of affected villages.

(1) Village collective asset will be changed to share of capital stock

(i) Change village collective asset to capital share to establish companies.

(ii) Ensure that the villagers have long-term, stable income. People in the village will

become the shareholders through purchasing shares. Their current income and

welfare will not decrease. Because the stock is a long-term existence and can

generate profit, it can be inherited according to the Company Law provisions.

(iii) After setting up a company, the villagers become a shareholder of the company

though quantify share, according to the law, enjoy the rights, obligations, the

interests of the company and the interests of all shareholders, the shareholders

can be through the company's general meeting of shareholders to participate in

major decision-making.

(2) The village collective economic organizations will be transformed into

industry and Trade Companies

(i) Land and assets assessment: identified a limited liability company assets.

(ii) The establishment of industry and trade limited company: All village’s operating

assets, audited, after assessing the net assets (net of social security and public

funds) is folded into the industry and trade limited company5.

(iii) Determine shares staff.

(iv) Determine shares of staff shares.

(v) Land belongs to collective all, homestead as the assets of the company.

5 There are many existing collective companies that have been successfully established in Zhangye City.

127

(vi) Establish limited liability company organizational structure and management

system.

(vii) Developed limited liability company equity incentive policy.

(viii) Handled industrial and commercial registration.

(ix) Village collective economic organizations develop the articles of association of the

company by villager congress through after the implementation.

(3) The labor compensation due to land acquisition

The labor resettlement range: (i) At least 18 years of age, labor relations in the village. (ii)

Placed the labor force or the parties, is associated with the village signed land to

contract. The labor was placed to the established village of industry and trade company

employment, wage income. Object: Labor Relations in the village men 18 to 55 years of

age, women 18 to 50 years of age in the village. The company will provide jobs to

villagers (village shareholders). Local government will support this scheme.

(4) Social security schemes

(i) Endowment insurance

Social security object: Always belongs to village, whole village 18 aged 59 years of

age for men and 18 to 54 years of age for women.

Cover insurance to people as the name of the village company, insurance funds

invest all of personal insurance account.

After Staff of village retirement, men over 60 years of age, women over the age of

55 can receive social pension.

(ii) The village committee restructure to neighborhood committee.

According to the relevant government regulations, the rural household registration

will be changed to urban register, cancel village committee and establish a

neighborhood committee.

Original residents and administrative area of the new neighborhood committee will

not be changed. Selections of neighborhood committee are produced by

community residents. Residents’ registration will be changed from rural registration

to urban registration (Hukou).

128

Through the above measures, ensure the development in city after the affected

village income level and living quality have bigger rise.

6.10 SCHEDULE OF RESETTLEMENT AND REHABILITATION

171. The civil engineering of the Project is planned to be commenced in December 2013. In

order to guarantee that affected population and organizations will be properly resettled,

construction of new relocation houses or apartment buildings will commence before existing

house demolition. APs will be in transition for a period of at least 6 months but less than 18

months. They will receive transitional compensation, and will find transitional houses in the

same villages. Local government will assist APs to find transitional houses. See Table 6-9 for the

schedule of all kinds of resettlement activities.

152

town RO. In case of oral complaint, the village (community) committee or town 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 district RO, the village (community) committee or town RO shall try to get the comments of

the district RO within 2 weeks.

Phase 2

200. If the reply given in the Phase 1 fails to satisfy the complainer, he or she may appeal to

the PRO within 1 month after receiving the decision of Phase 1. The PRO shall make a decision

202. 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.

203. APs can also submit complaints to ADB which will be handled by the Project Team. If an

AP 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 Mechanism6.

9.3 PRINCIPLES OF HANDLING COMPLAINTS

204. The ROs at various levels must carry out site surveys on the complaint made by APs,

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 RP, 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.

6 For further information see: http://www.adb.org/Accountability-Mechanism/default.asp.

http://www.adb.org/Accountability-Mechanism/default.asp

153

205. If the RO of the previous stage fails to give a reply within the specified period to the

complaint, the complainer has the right of appeal.

206. During the resettlement, some special complaints and appeals of women may appear;

therefore, the project office plans to hire at least (1) female employee for each resettlement

team to deal with women’s complaints. The local governmental and non-governmental

organizations, such as the Bureau of Civil Affairs and the Women's Association will supervise

the resettlement to ensure the rights and interests of the APs, especially that of affected women.

independently and have good communication ability.

(iii) A certain proportion of female external monitoring staff shall be assigned.

10.2.3 Responsibilities of the external monitoring organization

241. The external monitoring organization shall undertake the following:

(i) Before the resettlement, the external monitoring organization shall carry out the

living standard baseline survey to master the basic living and production conditions

of the APs.

(ii) During the process of the resettlement, the external monitoring organization shall

follow up and monitor the implementation of the resettlement plan, collect the

comments and complaints of the APs, reflect and submit monitoring report to

ZGDFLMC PRO and ADB.

166

(iii) The external monitoring organization shall follow and investigate the changes of

living and production conditions of APs, and evaluate the resettlement activities

and relevant measures.

10.2.4 Means and procedures of external monitoring

242. The external monitoring organization will adopt the following means to carry out the

monitoring of resettlement.

(i) On the basis of the detail measurement survey conducted by ZGDFLMC, the

external monitoring organization will set up a database for the APs and carry out

door-to-door interview with sampling AHs and vulnerable households. The external

monitoring organization will fully make use of the information acquired through

socioeconomic survey and the resettlement information management system of

the project management office, carry out assessment on the basic conditions of

the displaced households before and after resettlement, and get to know the

relevant information of the APs all the time. According to the information shown in

the database, the monitoring personnel will visit the APs, get to know the progress

of the resettlement, collect their complaints and suggestions, and inform them

relevant policies of the state, relevant requirements of ADB and the information on

the construction of the project.

After getting of the name list of the APs and relevant information from basic

institution, the external monitoring organization shall carry out door-to-door

interviews independently, without accompany by the staff of the local RO or local

administrative personnel. The visiting persons shall be relatively stable, which

means a monitoring member shall try to visit the same affected area as many

times as possible, which is beneficial for the establishment of the trust between the

monitoring member and the APs as well as the proceeding of the work.

167

(ii) The external monitoring organization shall convene meetings for affected

population irregularly in the area with a concentrated affected population,

collecting the opinions on the important issues relating to the project of the APs.

The meeting may be formal or informal. And the staff of the local RO may be or

may not be invited to the meeting, which depends on the actual situation.

(iii) Field survey. The staff of the external monitoring organization shall visit the

resettlement area regularly and irregularly and observe the resettlement on site.

(iv) Survey on individual case. The monitoring personnel shall put emphasis on the

special case occurred in the resettlement, analyze the causes of the problems,

work out solutions and propose suggestions.

(v) Questionnaire. The monitoring staff shall carry out sampling survey on the

recovery of the living and production conditions of APs and comments on the

resettlement, analyze the result in time, solve the existing problems, and provide

reference for the resettlement work of the next year.

10.2.5 Contents of independent monitoring

(1) Resettlement monitoring of the affected enterprises and public institutions

243. The independent monitoring organization shall follow up the resettlement of the

enterprises and public institutions through phone call and the study on individual case. The

following will be most concerned about:

Whether the time of land acquisition and the resettlement is arranged reasonably;

Whether the losses of the affected enterprises are compensated adequately;

Whether the staff of the enterprises is resettled properly;

Whether the production of the enterprises is resumed in time; and

Whether the affected enterprises transfer their loss to their staff.

(2) The physical resettlement of APs

244. Rural residential house are both involved in this project. The resettlement of APs is the

emphasis of the independent monitoring. As to these APs, the following are the main concerns

of the independent monitoring organization:

168

Whether the compensation rates of houses and other attachments to the ground

are determined in accordance with the replacement cost principle;

Whether the compensation is paid with full amount and in time;

Construction and distribution of relocation houses;

Whether the time of relocation is arranged reasonably;

Whether the transition allowances and moving cost are paid;

Whether the physical losses are fully compensated;

Whether the infrastructure (including water, power and heat supply and roads) of

the new resettlement area is completed and who is responsible for it; and

Whether it is convenient to go to hospital and school from the new resettlement

area.

(3) Monitoring of land acquisition and livelihood rehabilitation

245. In accordance with the features of the land acquisition of this project, the external

monitoring on the land acquisition and production resettlement shall be focused on the following:

Whether the compensation rates of various lands are determined in accordance

with relevant laws of the state and those stipulated in the RP;

Whether the disbursement procedure of land compensation fund can ensure the

affected village and group to receive their amount in agreements;

Whether the amount of land acquired, compensation rate, compensation amount

are publicized in the village and by which means they are publicized;

Whether the plan of the use of land compensation is designed after the collection

of the comments of related villagers and how the use plan is finally determined;

and

How the land compensation is distributed and how the actual economic benefit of

the APs is guaranteed.

(4) Monitoring on the operation of ROs

246. Capable, specialized and efficient ROs is the assurance of resettlement success. The

monitoring on the operation of ROs is an important part of independent monitoring. The means

169

of monitoring are mainly visits to the ROs and the inspection on the working data and record.

The main content of monitoring on ROs includes:

Whether the personnel structure of the ROs at various levels meets the

requirements of the resettlement;

Whether necessary working conditions are provided for the ROs at various levels;

Whether the quality of resettlement personnel meets the requirements of the

resettlement;

The resettlement staff training; and

The internal data and information management of the ROs.

(5) Monitoring on the resettlement of vulnerable groups

247. The vulnerable groups shall be given special attention not only by the ROs but also by

the independent monitoring organization. The independent monitoring organization shall follow

up and monitor the resettlement of vulnerable groups by means of door-to-door interview,

questionnaire, individual case analysis and the main indicators of monitoring include:

Which preferential policies are enjoyed by vulnerable groups in the resettlement;

Whether help is given to the affected poor household during house demolition in

rural area;

Whether special requirements of affected women and elderly have been fully

considered in the design of resettlement measures;

Whether vulnerable groups, especially women, can acquire employment

opportunity relating to the project and how many vulnerable persons are employed

in the construction of the project; and

Whether there is a female staff member in each RO to deal with the affairs of

women.

(6) The living standard baseline survey of APs

248. Before the formal commencement of the resettlement, the independent monitoring

organization shall collect the basic information for the resettlement of the Project upon sampling

survey. Structured questionnaires are adopted for the sampling survey. Cluster sampling shall

be carried out, taking all the AHs involved in the socioeconomic survey at the preparation phase

170

of the project as the sample bank. The sampling proportion for living standard baseline survey is

determined to be 20% sample of relocated HHs, a 5-10% survey of HHs affected by land loss,

and 50-100% survey of enterprises/shops.

249. The living standard baseline survey of the AHs covers: family structure, production

conditions, gross floor area of the houses, annual income of the household, employment

structure, annual expenditure of the household, traffic conditions, water supply, power supply

and heat supply conditions, living environment, subjective appraisal of production and living

conditions.

(7) The effect of resettlement

250. After the final implementation of the resettlement, the external monitoring organization

will follow up and monitor the effect of the resettlement continuously.

251. The external monitoring organization will investigate the AHs a year after the

resettlement. The follow-up survey is similar to the living standard baseline survey of the AHs,

adopting sampling survey by means of structured questionnaires, to show the impact of

resettlement on the production and living of the persons investigated. And the effect of

resettlement shall be evaluated on the basis of the follow-up survey.

252. The external monitoring organization shall investigate the objects of living standard

baseline survey. After the living standard baseline survey, the independent monitoring personnel

shall establish the database of the samples of the survey, which will be the basis of the follow-up

survey. As to the survey objects that it is hard to investigate again due to various reasons, they

shall be replaced by similar AHs in the same community after referring to the information bank

established upon the earlier socioeconomic survey.

253. The contents of the follow-up survey shall be consistent with those of living standard

baseline survey, so as to carry out comparison analysis of the production and living conditions of

the AHs before and after the resettlement. Meanwhile, the subjective comments on the

resettlement of the APs shall be collected and they will be referred to in the evaluation of the

effect of the resettlement.

10.2.6 Reporting system for independent monitoring

254. The external monitoring organization shall make external monitoring report in written

form based on the information acquired through observation and survey. The two purposes of

reporting: one is to report the progress of the resettlement and existing problems objectively to

171

ADB and the Owner and the other is to evaluate the social and economic effects of the

resettlement, proposing constructive comments and suggestions to improve and perfect the

resettlement.

255. The external monitoring organization shall submit reports to ADB and the Owner and the

periods of reporting are confirmed as follows:

Conduct a survey on the AP’s living standards and situation and submit a

resettlement baseline report at the very beginning of resettlement implementation

(i.e.,October 2013);

Submit M&E report every six months in February 31st and August 31st, respectively

during resettlement implementation, followed by two annual evaluation reports;

and

The last M&E report can be prepared as a resettlement completion report after the

completion of the whole resettlement.

256. A monitoring report shall at least include the followings: (i) monitoring objects; (ii) the

progress of the resettlement; (iii) main findings of the independent monitoring organization; (iv)

main existing problems and follow-up status of previous problems; and (v) basic appraisal,

comments and suggestions of independent monitoring organization. If there are any serious

problems or deficiencies in resettlement implementation/ compliance, the external monitor

should recommend remedial actions for consideration by the PRO and ADB. If a remedial action

plan is required, it will be formally agreed upon by the IA and ADB and will be disclosed locally

and on ADB website. The external monitor would be required to monitor the implementation and

results of the remedial action plan.

257. The external monitoring organization shall submit the report both in English and in

Chinese to the Project Office and ADB. Before submitting, the external monitoring organization

shall inform relevant personnel of the RO about the contents of the report and collect their

comments and they shall communicate with each other on the contents and the form of the

report. These external M&E reports will be made available to the APs and will be uploaded on

ADB website.

172

Annex I Rehabilitation Based on Input and Output Analysis of Agricultural

Production

The APs will lose 15.4% of their farmland in average, and their net agricultural income will

lose about 6.4%. In fact, agricultural income is accounted for only 41.2% of their total income

in average. More and more rural labors have left farmland and work in construction,

manufacture or service sectors and earned salary with local social and economic

development. During the project implementation, half of APs still need to work on farmland.

Their economic recovery can be realized through changing agricultural planting structures,

operating small business with rural characteristics. Some options are suggested in following

tables according to the survey and local life and agricultural production practice.

Table A1 presents an input and output analysis for changing agricultural planting structures

and operating small business. Table A2 shows farmland loss, remaining farmland and

compensation received for the land loss. From Table A3-1 to A3-4, some options for

economic recovery for APs who will lose farmland in different extends are suggested. Based

on the analysis, APs can recover their income through suggested measures.

3. Compensation and resettlement policy

3.1 land acquisition policy

This project implemented land acquisition policies of the RP. The allocation scheme of

land compensation is discussed by village groups and attained more than 2/3 villagers’

consent before implementation. According to the allocation scheme, land compensation

fee is allocated per capita. After getting land compensation, generally the villagers used it

to purchase transporting vehicles and engage in transportation or to plant new

agricultural varieties and operate farmhouse. Some villagers also used it for children’s

education and housing. Most people are satisfied with this allocation method of land

compensation fee. AP's income level is not decreased due to land acquisition. Allocation

of land compensation fees (sample households) survey is shown in Table 3. Sample

household survey shows that the APs have received land compensation fees.

signed housing demolition agreement with its town government and determined

resettlement scheme. People’s Government of Xindun Town conducted fully consultation

while determining the resettlement plan, and signed agreements only when the villagers

had agreed, as shown in photo 1. For example, the main contents of house demolition

agreement signed by Baita Village and Xindun Town are as follows:

(5) The standards of resettlement houses are 87 m2 and 107 m2, and the price is 1600

yuan/ m2. According to the house compensation fee of each household, the balances will

be paid to either side as the case may be.

(6) The relocated rural households own priority rights to buy business houses around the

resettlement buildings.

197

(7) After the demolition notice is issued, set 10 working days as the standard. Within

these 10 days, the households will be paid 1000 yuan / day for the days they move out

ahead of time.

(8) The transition fee will be paid to each household 300 yuan per month, and heating

subsidy will be paid to each household 2000 yuan annually. Transition fee is calculated
