SFG3880 V1 REV RESETTLEMENT ACTION PLAN OF World Bank-financed Zhejiang Qiandao Lake and Xin’an River Basin Water Resources and Ecological Environment Protection Project (Chun’an) Chun’an Project Management Office February 2018 I Definition This Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) is prepared according to the Laws and Regulations of PRC, and Zhejiang Province as well as the Guidelines of the World Bank (Operational Directive for Involuntary Resettlement OP 4.12). The purpose of this document is to set out an Action plan for the Resettlement and Rehabilitation of the Displaced persons (DPs) to ensure that they will benefit from the project and their standards of living will improve or at least be restored after the project impact. Acquisition of land and other assets for the project will adversely affect the livelihood of persons who live, work or earn their living on the land that will be acquired for the project. DPs are defined as those persons whose income or livelihoods will be adversely affected by land acquisition for the project. Displaced persons(DPs) include the following categories: 1) Persons who have a title, right, interest, in structures (houses, enterprises, shelters, or public buildings), land (including residential, agricultural, and grazing land) or any other asset acquired or possessed, in full or in part, permanently or temporarily; 2) Persons who use the structures, land or assets described above; or persons whose business, occupation, work, place of residence or habitat adversely affected; or 3) Persons whose standard of living is adversely affected as a consequence of land acquisition. Affected Persons “Affected Persons� means persons who on account of the execution of the project had or would have their: a) standard of living adversely affected; or b) right, title or interest in any house, land (including premises, agricultural and grazing land) or any other fixed or movable asset acquired or possessed, temporarily or permanently; or c) business, occupation, work or place of residence or habitat adversely affected. DPs may be individuals or legal persons such as a company, a public institution. Definition of DPs is not to set a limit to their legal registration or permission to live or conduct business in the affected location, or to the compensation of their property. Thus, it includes: 1) All those affected by the project regardless of their legal rights or absence thereof to the assets being taken; and 2) Persons without residential permit to live in a certain area. Therefore all such persons who are affected will be considered and recorded as DPs, regardless of their legal connection to assets land or location. II If there are more than one person, family or household using or holding a title to the same land or property that is acquired, they will be compensated and rehabilitated according to the loss they suffer, their rights, and the impact on their living standards. The definition of DPs is linked directly to the adverse effect of the project, regardless of legal rights title or interest. All DPs are entitled to the improvement or at least restoration of their standards of living, and compensation for the material losses they suffer. Compensation for assets will cover replacement cost. No deductions or discounts will be applied to the compensation amount for depreciation or other reasons. All DPs deriving an economic benefit from the affected land and property are entitled to receive rehabilitation benefits in addition to the compensation for their assets lost. Those DPs without title, authorization or legal permission to reside, conduct business, cultivate land or construct structures are eligible for rehabilitation of their livelihoods and compensation for their assets on an equal footing with those with formal legal title, authorization or permissions to the assets. Criteria for Eligibility. Displaced persons may be classified in one of the following three groups: (a) those who have formal legal rights to land (including customary and traditional rights recognized under the laws of the country); (b) those who do not have formal legal rights to land at the time the census begins but have a claim to such land or assets—provided that such claims are recognized under the laws of the country or become recognized through a process identified in the RAP; and (c) those who have no recognizable legal right or claim to the land they are occupying. Resettlement: refers to make an arrangement to people’s production and living that are affected in order to make them benefit from the project. It includes: ➢ the relocation of living quarters; ➢ finding acceptable new employment for those whose jobs are affected; ➢ restoration (or compensation) of affected productive resources such as land, workplaces, trees and infrastructure; ➢ restoration of other adverse effect on DPs’ living standards (quality of life) through land acquisition (such as the adverse effects of pollution); ➢ restoration of or compensation for affected private and public enterprises; ➢ restoration of adversely affected on cultural or common property. Rehabilitation: means: the restoration of the DPs’ resource capacity to continue with productive activities or lifestyles at a level higher or at least equal to that before the project. The objective of this RAP is to provide a plan for the resettlement and rehabilitation of the DPs so III that their losses will be compensated and their standards of living will be improved or at least restored to the pre-project levels. To achieve these objectives the plan provides for rehabilitation measures so that the income earning potential of individuals are restored to sustain their livelihoods. Affected productive resources of businesses (enterprises including shops) and public property. Infrastructure and cultural property will also be improved or at least restored to their pre-project levels. Compensation and resettlement measures:To address the following impacts of the involuntary taking of land: (i) relocation or loss of shelter; (ii) lost of assets or access to assets; or (iii) loss of income sources or means of livelihood, whether or not the affected persons must move to another location, a RAP or a resettlement policy framework will be prepared to cover the following: (a) The RAP or resettlement policy framework includes measures to ensure that the displaced persons are: (i) informed about their options and rights pertaining to resettlement; (ii) consulted on, offered choices among, and provided with technically and economically feasible resettlement alternatives; and (iii) provided prompt and effective compensation at full replacement cost ① , for losses of assets attributable directly to the project. (b) If the impacts include physical relocation, the RAP or resettlement policy framework includes measures to ensure that the displaced persons are: (i) provided assistance (such as moving allowances) during relocation; and (ii) provided with residential housing, or housing sites, or, as required, agricultural sites for which a combination of productive potential, locational advantages, and other factors is at least equivalent to the advantages of the old site. (c) Where necessary to achieve the objective of the policy, the RAP or resettlement policy framework also includes measures to ensure that displaced persons are: (i) offered support after displacement, for a transition period, based on a reasonable estimate of the time likely to be needed to restore their livelihood and standards of living; (ii) provided with development assistance in addition to compensation measures described in paragraph 4(a)(iii), such as land preparation, credit facilities, training, or job opportunities. Cut-off date: The date of publication of the bulletin of land acquisition and relocation in this project. After this date, the displaced persons shall not build, rebuild or expand their houses; shall not change IV the uses of their houses and land; shall not lease their land, lease, sell or purchase their houses; and any person that moves in after this date shall not qualify as a displaced person. Replacement cost: is the method of valuation of assets that helps determine the amount sufficient to replace lost assets and cover transaction costs. In applying this method of valuation, depreciation of structures and assets should not be taken into account. For agricultural land, it is the pre-project or pre-displacement, whichever is higher, market value of land of equal productive potential or use located in the vicinity of the affected land, plus the cost of preparing the land to levels similar to those of the affected land, plus the cost of any registration and transfer taxes. For land in urban areas, it is the pre-displacement market value of land of equal size and use, with similar or improved public infrastructure facilities and services and located in the vicinity of the affected land, plus the cost of any registration and transfer taxes. For houses and other structures, it is the market cost of the materials to build a replacement structure with an area and quality similar to or better than those of the affected structure, or to repair a partially affected structure, plus the cost of transporting building materials to the construction site, plus the cost of any labor and contractors' fees, plus the cost of any registration and transfer taxes. In determining the replacement cost, depreciation of the asset and the value of salvage materials are not taken into account, nor is the value of benefits to be derived from the project deducted from the valuation of an affected asset. Where domestic law does not meet the standard of compensation at full replacement cost, compensation under domestic law is supplemented by additional measures so as to meet the replacement cost standard. Such additional assistance is distinct from resettlement measures to be provided under other clauses in OP 4.12, para. 6. Involuntary land acquisition: (a) the involuntary taking of land resulting in (i) relocation or loss of shelter; (ii) lost of assets or access to assets; or (iii) loss of income sources or means of livelihood, whether or not the affected persons must move to another location; or (b) the involuntary restriction of access9 to legally designated parks and protected areas resulting in adverse impacts on the livelihoods of the displaced persons.

River Basin Water Resources and Ecological Environment Protection Project (hereafter referred as “the project�), involves Chun'an County and Jiande City respectively. The project financing plan and economic analysis was reviewed, and it was concluded that Project costs total US$293.46 million over 6 years of implementation period, inclusive of price and physical contingencies, interest during construction, commitment fee, and front-end fee. Project operations will be financed by an IBRD loan of US$150.00 million (about 51 percent of total project cost) and local counterpart funding of US$143.46 million from local governments (about 49%). The Bank loan will be on standard IBRD terms. The Qiandao Lake project includes 3 components, namely Component 1: Landscape Management Improvement. This component will support (a) Low Impact Crop Projection Practice; (b) Waste Management; (c) Forestry Eco-System Protection; (d) Wetland Management; Component 2: Water Resources Management Improvement component. This component will support: (a) Wastewater Management; (b) Water Course Improvement; (c) Portable Water Supply in Rural Areas; and Component 3: Institutional Capacity Building, Monitoring and Project Management component. This component would finance technical assistance, training, research/studies, extension, awareness raising, monitoring and evaluation, as well as the project management. The project of Chun'an County involves 23 towns, and a total of 5 sub-projects. They are: (1) Chun'an County rural drinking water safety promotion component, (2) Chun'an County comprehensive management of small watershed component, (3) Chun'an County Embankment reinforcement and river improvement component, (4) Chun'an County agricultural non-point source pollution control project, (5) Chun'an County forest ecological restoration project. This RAP is prepared for the project contents proposed for Chun'an County and a separate RAP was prepared for Jiande City. According to the investigation, the impacts of this project involves the permanent land acquisition, temporary land occupation, and ground attachment. Among them, Chun'an 4 County Rural Drinking Water Safety Promotion Component involves permanent land acquisition and temporary land occupation; Comprehensive Management of Small Watershed, Embankment Reinforcement and River Improvement Component involve temporary land occupation; Agricultural Non-point Source Pollution Control and Forest Ecological Restoration Component do not cause any resettlement. 2 Resettlement Impacts The geographical space of this project impacts is defined in the Chun'an County, which covering its total 23 towns. The direct beneficiary area of the project is whole Chun'an County Total 4 59,000 and 3 95,000 people could also be benefited, directly and indirectly, from this project respectively. Using the World Bank loan, this project occupies 1,411.09 mu land totally, which includes 39.4 mu of rural collective land as well as 1371.69 mu of land occupation temporarily. The total affected population of this project includes 1,585 households with 6,685 persons. Total 1,034 households with 4,461 persons (permanent land requisition affecting 71 households with 272 persons; while temporary land occupation affecting 963 households with 4,189 persons), are impacted by the subproject of Chun'an County rural drinking water safety promotion component. Total 56 households including 172 persons are impacted by the subproject of comprehensive management of small watershed. And total 495 households with 2052 persons are impacted by the subprojects of embankment reinforcement and river improvement. ➢ Permanent Requisition of Rural Collective Land. The permanent acquisition of collectively-owned land affects 12 administrative villages in six towns / sub districts, covering about 39.4 mu of collective land, and affecting 71 households with 272 persons. For the affected collective land, there are 0.9 mu of arable land, 19.57 mu of woodland, 18.05 mu of garden, and other 0.87 mu lands respectively. Only 0.03%-2.82% of cultivated land in these 12 administrative villages, is occupied by the project. ➢ Temporary Occupation of Rural Collective Land. This project occupies a total of 1371.69 mu land temporarily, all of which are rural collective land. Among them, 5 the Rural Drinking Water Safety Improvement Project, occupies an area of 910.31 mu temporarily. While the Small Watershed Comprehensive Treatment Project occupies an area of 58.4 mu temporarily, and the Embankment Reinforcement and River Reinforcement occupies 402.98 mu of land. The temporary occupation of collective land affects 22 villages and towns (sub-districts) in 127 townships and communities in Chun'an County, with impacting total 1,514 households and 6413 persons. The main reasons for leading to lots of affected population are that: network extension (721.87 km), the Comprehensive Management of Small Watershed (105.3 km), and Embankment Reinforcement and River Management (227 km) are all linear projects, while their distances are very long; local farmers have less land per capita, and their lands have been divided into some small pieces. ➢ Some precautionary measures will be adopted during construction to reduce the negative impacts of the project such as, the time of excavating pipe network is limited in winter to 1) reduce water and soil erosion, 2) reduce the occupation of arable land. During harvest season the construction amount will be reduced. 3) The construction information will be conveyed to the APs in advance, so as to reduce the agricultural loss of APs; 4) restoration of arable land. During the construction period, the mellow soil will be centralized and refilled to reduce the farmers’ loss. 3 Project Policies, Principles and Entitlements The project plan is constantly optimized. The resettlement policy of this project will follow relevant policies of the People’s Republic of China, Zhejiang People’s Government, Local Authorities and of World Bank, such as the Land Administration Law of the People’s Republic of China (2004), the Decisions for Further Reform and Strengthen Land Administration of State Council ([2004] No. 28) and OP4.12, etc. 4 Resettlement Measures The permanent LA, temporary land occupation and ground attachment compensation are operated in accordance with the Notice of the Updated Benchmark Land Price in Chun'an County (CZF [2016] No.10), and the Notice on the Re-release Integrated Section Price of Chun'an County Collective Land Acquisition. 6 The permanent LA of this project mainly involves woodland, the APs are ineligible to be incorporated into the social security system. In this way, the compensation for the permanent LA of the project will be compensated according to the integrated land section prices, the compensation will be paid directly to the affected peasant households by the Land Resource Bureau of Chun'an County. The temporary occupation compensation will be paid directly to the APs according to the actual situation. The ground attachments will be reimbursed to the property owners by the Land Resource Bureau of Chun'an County in accordance with the replacement price. In order to ensure the safety of compensation on the permanent and temporary LA, it is recommended that cash will not be paid directly, while the establishment of special bank account will also be adopted. This will ensure financial security and contribute to fund management of the project. It can effectively prevent fund being withheld and misappropriated. At the same time, local township administrators need to guide the APs that how to reasonable use of funds. Moreover, in order to improve the benefits of the project and to reduce the negative feedback to the APs, some skill trainings and job opportunities will be provided. 5 Supports for Vulnerable Groups and Women This project does not involve any vulnerable groups. The affected female has the same legal rights that the male has, including but not limited to land contracting, accepting education, family planning and participating in elections. Most of the investigated female labors believe that they have the same production & operation decision-making power that the male has. In other words, they have the right to choose working in a company or setting up their own business. With division of labor, the male-female employment distribution in rural families shows a typical distribution model, namely “Male for Money & Female for Family�. This means that most of the male are engaged in non-agricultural industries, while most of the female are engaged in agriculture and household duties. Since the female undertake more household duties and the task of raising children, they often choose to work locally; while it’s more likely for the male to go to other places for work. In terms of working hours, the female and 7 male have basically same working hours. In terms of industries, the female has advantages in some industries such as catering industry, household service industry and wholesale & retail industry; but disadvantages in other industries such as construction industry and transportation industry. According to the survey, questions that what the female concerned are the same as that of the male: a) whether the compensation standard is in strict compliance with national laws and policies, and whether the compensation is given in a timely manner; b) whether the land compensation funds are directly given to the affected peasant households. In terms of gender differences, the female’s following needs are different from that of the male: a) the female need training in planting, husbandry, household service and catering service; b) among most families, the male are the major force in village management. However, the female also wants to participate in village management. In addition, the contract which specifies the compensatory funds will be signed by both husband and wife. In order to protect the affected female’s rights and interests, this project will invite the female to join “Supporting Group for Comprehensive Treatment of Ecological Environment of Thousand Island Lake of Xin'an River�. In this way, their participation right, decision- making power and development right can be guaranteed. While the project will take a series of measures to ensure that women's rights and interests are guaranteed during the preparation and implementation phase of the project. For example, affected women will receive information relating to LA and must ensure participation in LA and public consultation. The compensation agreement must be signed by both husband and wife. In skill training, priority is given to the affected women's labor to ensure that their economic status is not compromised. To ensure that a certain number of women (at least 50% of total affected women) can access to non- skilled jobs during the project construction process. In addition, women will receive the same pay equally as men since they work the same way. During the operation of the project, priority will be given to catering, temporary employment and other positions to women affected by the project, to ensure that their income is restored. 6 Public Participation and Information Disclosure 8 All APs have been informed of the key points of this RAP by various means and involved in the Project, such as meeting, interview, FGDs, public participation meetings and community consultations, and their opinions have been well incorporated into this RAP. During the project preparation phase, the supportive teams have been established in all affected villages. 3—5 representatives in each village, which include women and village leaders. While in the RAP preparation phase, many issues that include policy advocacy, compensation and livelihood/income restoration have been discussed with the APs. Meantime, the PMO encourages the APs to participate in the resettlement and reconstruction work with the support of holding symposiums. Moreover, measures of enhancing policy advocacy and public participation will be improved through other channels and tools, such as notice and mobilization. During the project implementation phase, PIUs officers will explain the relevant policies and regulations, compensation standards, and resettlement programs, etc., so that APs can understand specific issues, and will be able to make adequate arrangements. Participation is also of equal importance and the strategy to encourage participation is included in RAP. Copies of RIBs, which contain key information, will be provided to the affected persons before RAP implementation. The RAP will also be issued on World Bank’s website and local government’s website. 7 Grievance Redress Mechanism Establishing a Complaints / Disputes Resolving Management System (CRMS) aims to timely resolve the issues faced by the APs during compensation and resettlement. The APs can appeal against any issue they faced during the resettlement and compensation. The Local Government Agencies (LGAs) and the village committees (VCs) will coordinate and put efforts to resolve the issues free of cost. The reasonable expenses incurred will be paid from the contingencies of the project. 8 Institutional Arrangement In order to ensure the successful implementation of the project, a project leading group in Chun'an County has been established for overall leadership and high-level 9 coordination. Meantime, to ensure the smoothly implementation of RAP, more measures have been conducted, such as strengthening the communication with the Zhejiang province PMO, capacity buildings for resettlement agencies and PMOs, arranging full-time staffs in PMOs in charge of resettlement implementation, coordination and organizations. These personnel are well-experienced and engaged in land acquisition related work for many years. 9 Monitoring and Evaluation In order to ensure successful implementation of the RAP, internal and external monitoring on resettlement will be carried out. The WB Project Management office of Chun'an County, together with related agencies will provide a semi-annual internal monitoring report to the WB during the resettlement process. WB PMO of Zhejiang Provincial Housing and Urban-rural Construction Department will engage an independent monitoring agency to conduct the semi-annual external monitoring and evaluation. Monitoring and evaluation costs are included into the estimated resettlement budget. The cost of external monitoring is charged by the PMO of Chun'an County. 10 Resettlement Cost The resettlement cost of this project consists of the cost of permanent LA, compensation for affected infrastructures and ground attachments, and related taxes, management fees, etc. The estimated resettlement cost for the project is 7.76674 million Yuan. Among them, 0.2336 million yuan is for resettlement cost for comprehensive management of small watershed component; 1.61192 million yuan is for Embankment reinforcement and river improvement component; 5.92122 million yuan is for rural drinking water construction project. 10 1 Basic Information of the Project 1.1 Construction Content and Resettlement Impacts 1.1.1 Construction Content World Bank-financed Zhejiang Qiandao Lake and Xin’an River Basin Water Resources and Ecological Environment Protection Project involves Chun'an County (Chun'an Sub-project) and Jian’de City (Jian’de Sub-project). The total investment of the project is about 293.46 million USD, including the World Bank loan of 150 million USD. The project of Chun'an County involves 23 towns, and a total of 3 sub-components. The detail content of the project is given below. To achive the project development objectives, the project includes the following three components: Component 1: Landscape Management Improvement. This component will support: (a) Low Impact Crop Production practice, to reduce non-point sources of pollution in the Xin’an river and Qiandao lake catchments in Chun’an county and Jiande city. To address this issue, the project would promote: (a) soil nutrient management to reduce the use of chemical fertilizers; (b) integrated pest management (IPM) practice including the use Biological prevention measures such as insect traps, lights and natural predators for the key cropping systems to reduce the use of pesticides; and (c) conservation agriculture (CA) pilots by the use of low impact soil tillage and minimum tillage practices for the main crops to reduce soil erosion, run-off and nutrient loss. (b) Waste Management (LWM), through undertaking waste treatment for livestock farms identified in the selected project selected catchments. The project willprovide sub-grants to participating farms to cost share the construction of LWM facilities and to promote the proper collection and treatment of pig and chicken manure. (c) Forestry Eco-System Protection, through improving the hydrological functions of plantations in the Qiandao catchment by replanting and /or inter planting pest infested and degraded plantation monocultures and abandoned farmlands with native species to form a mixed forest structure. It would also improve fire prevention and control operations. The component would focus mainly around 11 the lakeshore, between the shoreline and the first ridge, where most degraded and monoculture forests are located and where most fires occur. Component 2: Water Resources Management Improvement This component would support: (a) Water Course Improvement. Water course improvements, greening and landscaping will be used to increase water infiltration in project watersheds, expand water storage capacity, reduce peak run-off and non-point sources of pollution discharges, stabilize river bank slopes and reduce Total Suspended Solid (TSS) discharges into Qiandao Lake through the drainage channel of the crop field along the river bank. It will also provide irrigation water to the crop field along the river. The main project activities are: (a) the improvement of water courses through the rehabilitation of river embankments, the dredging of river channels, and the rehabilitation weirs in the five selected catchments. (b) Potable Water Supplies in Rural Areas. The project would expand the existing piped network to provide potable piped water to around 218,000 rural inhabitants in 19 townships in the project area, all of whom presently depend on supplies from antiquated and poorly managed installations, as well as to upgrade and expand supplies to a further 8 villages (clusters) by replacing certain aging pipe distribution networks. Component 3: Institutional Capacity Building, Monitoring and Project Management. This component would finance technical assistance, training, research/studies, extension, awareness raising, monitoring and evaluation, as well as the project management. More specifically, it would support: (a) Technical assistance and training. It will finance the institutional strengthening and capacity building of PPMO and two CPMOs, as well as project entities and farmers by providing technical assistance and training to the relevant staff and farmers on implementing technical design adopting new technologies and effective project management. 12 (b) Promoting Inter-Provincial Collaboration. Given the inter-provincial nature of the causes of water pollution in Qiandao lake and the Xin’an river, the project will pay special attention to promoting inter provincial collaboration, by fostering communication and coordination between the Anhui and Zhejiang provinces, more specifically through organizing (a) training and workshops to introduce effective watershed management practice and to disseminate the lessons learned, to facilitate the exchanges of knowledge among involved agencies of two provinces; and promoting cross provincial institutional collaboration arrangements, such as setting up bi-provincial meetings for relevant authorities of two provinces. (c) Study and Research program. Several study and research activities are planned. In particular, given that the project aims to support implementing the Zhejiang Xin’an River and Qiandao Lake Water Resources and Ecological Protect Plan, the project will finance analytical and advisory work aimed at improving the effectiveness of the Plan. This study aims to provide clear recommendations to the Zhejiang Government on how to improve the efficacy of the Plan and its implementation. (d) Monitoring and Evaluation. The project will finance monitoring: (a) the project implementation progress; (b) the quality and performance of project activities and its technical and institutional support systems; (c) the achievement of the PDO; and (d) environmental and social impacts with special emphasis on water quality. It will also support strengthening the Qiandao Lake water and catchment-wide monitoring system, especially regarding detecting trends in pollutant levels, their passage through the catchments, their points of origin and their causes, as well as water quality through financing additional monitoring stations, equipment and facilities, and improved systems and methodologies for data collection and analysis. Payments for ecosystem service (PES) pilot. Collaborating with the Bank, The Nature Conservancy (TNC) is planning to support payments for ecosystem service (PES) pilot 13 in the project areas. A water fund will be developed and operated as an institutional platform by cities and conservation practitioners (including TNC) within the overall framework of the ‘Payments for Ecosystem Services’ concept. By mobilizing innovative sources of funding, the water fund will help communities improve water quality by bringing water users together with the objective of collectively investing in upstream agriculture land management to reduce pollutions under the set project technical framework. 1.1.2 Types of Resettlement impacts According to the resettlement impacts survey, the project involves permanent land acquisition, temporary land occupation, and ground attachments.

The field survey shows that, Chun’an county rural drinking water safety project is to enhance overall economic condition, less per capita arable land, low agriculture output, the main source of farmers’ income was non-agriculture source, most of the farmers are migrant works, so the project land has less effect on the rural residents. 37 Table 12 Pemanent Collective Land Acquisition of Chun’an Sub-projects Land acquisition (MU) Demographic impact Serial Component Surface number Arable Garden Unused woodland of the Other Subtotal Household Persons land plot land water Chun’an County rural 1 drinking water safety 0.9 19.57 18.05 0 0 0.87 39.4 71 272 promotion component Chun’an County comprehensive 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 management of small watershed component Chun’an County 3 Embankment reinforcement 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 and river improvement 38 Land acquisition (MU) Demographic impact Serial Component Surface number Arable Garden Unused woodland of the Other Subtotal Household Persons land plot land water Proportion(%) 2.28% 49.67% 45.81% 0 0 2.21% 100% 0 0 Total 0.9 19.57 18.05 0 0 0.87 39.4 71 272 Table 13Land change per capita before and after expropriation Before land acquisition After land acquisition Affected village Per capita After/Before Own arable Per capita Own arable Per capita arable land land City land area arable land land area arable land Community area change acquisition (MU) area (MU) (MU) area (MU) Xinhe Village 406 0.2738 400.73 0.2702 -0.00355 98.70% Yejia Village 708 0.3607 704.24 0.3588 -0.00192 99.47% Chun’an Pingmen illage 517 0.3399 513.52 0.3376 -0.00229 99.33% County Zhaikeng Village 430 0.5422 421.22 0.5312 -0.01107 97.96% 39 Before land acquisition After land acquisition Affected village Per capita After/Before Own arable Per capita Own arable Per capita arable land land City land area arable land land area arable land Community area change acquisition (MU) area (MU) (MU) area (MU) Guanchuan Village 430 0.5416 425.94 0.5364 -0.00511 99.06% Lianxi Village 226 0.4297 219.62 0.4175 -0.01213 97.18% Xiashan Village 337.85 0.4176 331.09 0.4093 -0.00836 98.00% Zhechuan Village 595 0.2950 594.85 0.2949 -0.00007 99.97% Sanzhou Village 479 0.3434 478.85 0.3433 -0.00011 99.97% Pingcun Village 211 0.2906 210.7 0.2902 -0.00041 99.86% Qinkeng Village 548 0.4261 547.85 0.4260 -0.00012 99.97% Kaochuan Village 148 0.2108 147.85 0.2106 -0.00021 99.90% 40 2.3.3 The Impact of Temporary Land Occupation Rural Drinking Water Safety Promotion Project, Embankment Reinforcement and River Improvement Project, Comprehensive Management of Small Watershed Project, none of these involve any permanent Acquisition collective land, housing demolition, only temporary land occupation involved. Design principle: (a) Design units adhere to the principle of minimal impact on local residents in the planning process. And water plants are selected on the mountain or away from the residential areas. Therefore, it does not involve land acquisition or housing demolition. (b) To reduce the effect on temporary occupation the Pipe were laying along the roads and ditches (3) there is no permanent acquisition, even if it involves arable land that will be only temporarily occupied. This project covers 1371.69 mu temporary land occupation, all of which are rural collective land. which includes the rural drinking water safety promotion project covers 910.31 mu temporary land occupation. And the Comprehensive management of small watershed project covers 58.4 mu temporary land occupation. Embankment reinforcement and river improvement project covers 402.98 mu temporary land occupation. The temporary occupation of collective land affected 127 towns and communities in 22 villages and towns/sub-district offices in Chun’an County. Temporary land occupation covers 1514 households (6413 persons). Details of the temporary land occupation of the project are shown in table 14. The main reason is that the affected population led to the temporary occupation: (a) Network extension (721.87km), Comprehensive management of small watershed (105.3km), Embankment reinforcement and river improvement (227km), all of these are linear project with a very long distance; (b) Local farmers have less land per capita and most of them having small piece of land and the temporary land occupation had covered large population.

The affected women and men enjoy the same legal powers, including contracting farmland, education, family planning, participation in the rights of election. Most of the women who visit the labor force believe that they have the same production and management autonomy as men, and they can choose to work or to do small business independently. With the migration of rural labor force, the allocation of employment time of male and female labor force shows typical "male owner outside". Men are more engaged in non-agricultural industries, and women are more engaged in agriculture in order to take care of their families. Women take on more housework and bear the responsibility of raising children, often choose to work locally, while men are more likely to choose migrant workers. From the time point of view, women and men work roughly the same time. From the industry point of view, women have certain competitive advantage in the catering industry, domestic service industry, wholesale 43 and retail industries, but women are at a disadvantage in the construction and transportation sectors. According to the survey, women are concerned about the same problems as men: (a) The compensation standards shall be strictly implemented according to the laws and policies of the state, and timely release in place; (b) The land compensation fund will be issued directly to the affected farmers. Among the gender differences, women have different needs than men: (a) Women are required to provide training in planting, aquaculture, housekeeping, food and beverage services, etc.; (b) Most of the families of participants are males, but women also hope to be able to participate in village management, compensation funds are approved and signed by both husband and wife is the best situation. In addition, the role of village women directors in project participation and supervision will be brought into play, and they need to be represented by a wide range of women to protect women's rights and interests. 44 3 Social and Economic Survey of Project Area 3.1 Social and Economic Backgrounds in Zhejiang Province Zhejiang Province is located in the southeast coast of China, the south wing of the Yangtze River Delta.

Moreover, most of the work-force is involved in cities, which also limits the development of large greenhouses and other industries. 4.5 Household Asset For the sampled 103 households (that including total 348 persons), per household the number of television-sets, refrigerators, air-conditioners, phones, motorbikes (or bikes), tractors (or water suction pumps) was 2.21, 1.01, 2.67, 3.41, 1.13 and 0.91, respectively. As thus, we could indicate that the livelihood quality of these APs had not declined. 54 4.6 Annual Household Income and Expenditure 4.6.1 Annual Household Income According to the household investigation, annual per capita household income was 19,873.46 Yuan. It included 1,821 Yuan of agricultural-income (accounting for 9.16% of total income), 3,980 Yuan of operating forest-fruit industry (accounting for 20.03% of total income), 1,021 Yuan of wage income (accounting for 5.14%), 12,437.35 Yuan of employment income (accounting for 62.58% of total income), 521.98 Yuan of other nonagricultural-income (accounting for 2.63% of total income), and 92.13 Yuan of property income (only accounting for 0.46% of total income) respectively. We can find that agricultural income accounts for a very low share of household income, while employment income account for a very high proportion of household income. The APs are less dependent on land. Therefore, this project will not adopt the approach of agriculture resettlement. 4.6.2 Annual Household Expenditure Based on the household investigation, annual per capita household expenditure was 6,981.21 Yuan. It included 4,132.79 Yuan of operating expenditure (68.03%), 2,142.21 Yuan of living expenditure (30.69%) and, 89.21 Yuan of other expenses accounted for only 1.28% of household total expenditure, respectively.

Adopting the policy-tools of cash compensation and employment resettlement, can relieve the negative impacts of LA. 2) The major source of income of the effected household is employment thus the LA could hardly cause the affected household livelihoods. 3) A majority of the farmers in the project areas consider that this project is beneficial to the regional and local sustainable development. Moreover, these farmers could assist and support the project construction as long as the compensation is reasonable and timely. 4) The APs are less dependent on land. Therefore, this project will not adopt the approach of agriculture resettlement. 5) Condition for the development of high-efficiency agriculture is limited because of the lower per capita land resources. Moreover, most of the work-force is in cities, which also limits the development of large greenhouses and other industries. 6) The elderly persons are engaged in farming, to achieve the purpose of household self-sufficiency 2Household net income =annual household income – annual household expenditure 56 5�Legal and Policy Framework 5.1 Policy Framework and Main Clauses In this project, for the successful completion of work on LA and Resettlement the policies adopted are relevant to People’s Republic of China, Zhejiang Provincial Government, Local Authorities and World Bank.

Difference: the WB's policy demand compensation should be enough to offset any loss of income and restore long-term earning potential. Chinese standards are based on annual production. Solution: early solution is to provide replacement land, but are less likely to practice. Cash is the first choice for most people, even though they cannot ensure reasonable use of these compensation. As a result, the WB needs further technical support, for severely affected, especially vulnerable groups to monitor household income, while the local government to help people who need help. Compensation resettlement for vulnerable groups Difference: the WB's policy is to give full compensation for special vulnerable groups, especially those facing poverty seriously affected households. Chinese regulations do not require social analysis, therefore compensation based solely on the number of losses. Solution: Special funds are available to assist the vulnerable groups, and they will be determined during the detailed measurement survey. Various measures have been stipulated in the RAP. Consultation and disclosure Difference: the WB's policy demands all the affected staffs fully informed, and negotiate with them as soon as possible. The regulation of China has improved the transparency of the notice and compensation. However, affected by personnel's role in project decision-making is not strong, usually released period is too short. Solution: negotiation has begun at an early age. Project department agreed to publish RAP according to the requirements of the bank to the associated affected personnel. Lack of legal rights Difference: WB policy requires all demolished buildings, whether they are legal or illegal, should be compensated in accordance with the same standards. According to Chinese law, a man without a local registered residence may not have and the local 63 people have the same right to compensation. In addition, the current Chinese laws for illegal acquisition of land and house owners without compensation. Solution: For the WB loan project, all lawful and unlawful affected people, regardless of ownership or have the right to use, will be protected. In accordance with the requirements of the WB, will help. Resettlement monitoring, evaluation and reporting Difference: WB requirements for internal and external resettlement monitoring. But China's laws have no such requirement except for reservoir project. All WB projects have established internal and external resettlement monitoring systems, which are written in the RAP. The external and internal reporting requirements have specific provision in the RAP. 5.2 Resettlement Principles of this Project Involuntary resettlement may cause severe long-term hardship, impoverishment, and environmental damage unless appropriate measures are carefully planned and carried out. For these reasons, the overall objectives of the Bank's policy on involuntary resettlement are the following: (a) Involuntary resettlement should be avoided where feasible, or minimized, exploring all viable alternative project designs.2 (b) Where it is not feasible to avoid resettlement, resettlement activities should be conceived and executed as sustainable development programs, providing sufficient investment resources to enable the persons displaced by the project to share in project benefits. Displaced persons3 should be meaningfully consulted and should have opportunities to participate in planning and implementing resettlement programs. (c) Displaced persons should be assisted in their efforts to improve their livelihoods and standards of living or at least to restore them, in real terms, to pre-displacement levels or to levels prevailing prior to the beginning of project implementation, whichever is higher. 64 5.3 Resettlement Policies of the Project 5.3.1 Acquisition of Collectively-owned Land and Resettlement of Labor-forces The area of permanent LA for the project is 39.4 mu in total. Scope of the LA includes eight water supply plants namely, Wangfu, Yejia, Xiashan, Pingmen, Fengshulin, Baima, Zitong and Weiping to be constructed within total 12 counties and six towns. The standards and procedures of the resettlement and compensation will be followed in accordance with the Land Administration Law of the PRC and also World Bank’s safeguard policy(OP 4.12/BP4.12). the local regulations on LAincludes. Decisions for Further Reforms and strengthening Land Administration of State Council ([2004] No. 28), Guidelines on Improving Compensation and Resettlement Systems for Land Acquisition (MLR [2004] No.238), Measures of Zhejiang Province for the Implementation of the Land Administration Law of the PRC, The Implementation Opinions of the People’s Government of Zhejiang Province on Establishing the Social Insurance System for Urban and Rural Residents (ZZF [2009] No.62), Methods of the People’s Government of Zhejiang Province on the Compensation and Farmers Basic Livelihood Safeguard (Decree No.264 of the Zhejiang People’s Government). Methods of the People’s Government of Zhejiang Province on the Compensation and Farmers Basic Livelihood Safeguards, was issued on 1st Jan, 2010. According to these methods, the age of participating in the social endowment insurance in the social endowment insurance is 16-year-old and above, the age of drawing the pension is 60- year-old for male and 55-year-old for female respectively. Because rules for the implementation of these methods have not been built in project area, this report uses the original policies of the project area. In 2009, Zhejiang Province issued the Implementation Opinions of the People’s Government of Zhejiang Province on Establishing the Social Insurance System for Urban and Rural Residents (ZZF [2009] No.62). These implementation rules the urban and rural residents can participate in the social endowment insurance who have the 65 household registration of Zhejiang Provence and over the age of 16 (beside full-time school students), and engaged in non-state organs, public institutions, social groups without attending the basic old-age insurance. Residents who participate in urban and rural social endowment insurance shall pay endowment insurance by the regulation. The condition of drawing the pension is that, residents are over the age of 60 and without enjoying the benefits of government-sections, enterprise units and other social groups. Similarly, this report uses the original policies of the project area. The implementation opinions will be implemented when the project begins. The implementation opinions also claim that the persons who have participated in the urban-rural social endowment insurance can participate in the basic life insurance of landless farmers as well. Correspondingly, the person who participated in the basic life insurance of landless peasant, can transfer their personal funds into the accounts of urban-rural social endowment insurance. The grant of old-age pension will be in accordance with the arrangement of urban-rural social endowment insurance. Furthermore, the Notice on Further Improving Endowment Insurance for Land Loss Farmers was issued by Chun’an Government in 2014, which includes the arrangement of health care and job security for landless farmers. It figures out that the landless farmers in Chun’an County can participate in the works basic health care insurance or the urban-rural social endowment insurance. Based on the measures, the training of worker’s skills will be strengthened to improve the employment competitiveness of the farmers. At the same time, the farmers who have the ability and desire to apply for jobs, will accept the employment assistance 5.3.2 Temporary Land Occupation The area of temporary land occupation of the project is 1,371.69 mu, which is rural collectively-owned land. It includes the land occupation of rural drinking water safety promotion (910.31 mu), comprehensive management of small watershed (58.4 mu) and of embankment reinforcement and river improvement (402.98 mu). Occupying rural collectively-owned land temporarily, will be approved by the land 66 administration department of local government. The user of rural collectively-owned land will sign a contract with farmers’ committee or rural collective economic organization, and the land compensation will be paid in accordance with the contract. The occupied land must not be used for building permanent constructions. When the contract expires, the land will be restored to the original state. If the land cannot be restored and cause loss, the users shall bear the corresponding responsibility for economic compensation. Occupying rural collectively-owned land temporarily will be in accordance with the Land Reclamation Ordinance (Decree No.592 of the State Council), Technical Standards for Land Reclamation, Preparation Procedures for Land Development and Consolidation (TD\T1011-2000), and Planning and Design of Land Development and Consolidation project (TD\T1012-2000). Temporary use of land will not normally exceed two years. 5.3.3 Ground Attachments All the ground attachments that affected by the project will be restored in accordance with the special requirements. Compensation for using land will be paid or incorporated into project budget. Meantime, the compensation will be paid to the property owners based on the principle of replacement value. (1) For the compensation of public facility, its compensation standard will be made in accordance with methods of market assessment, and the functional restoration of public facility will be restored in the meantime. (2) Works of trees transplantation needs to be noticed six months earlier for affected farmers, especially to avoid the summer planting of Osmanthus trees. (3) The units whose land is Acquisitioned, the PMO can inform the acquisition information to them half a year in advance. In this way, the units can have enough time to replace ground attachments to other places. Taking the water supply plant named Fengshulin, Osmanthus trees were on the land that would be used to this water supply plant, the acquisition unit hoped that the PMO could inform the 67 acquisition information to them in advance, and could help them find enough space for plantation of those trees. (4) The compensation for relocating graves will be paid to the AHHs, new sites for graves will be selected by the APHs with the supports of village leaders. Based on the field investigation, we found that the removal of the graves will be according to the local customs. The compensation for graves relocations shall include the fee of performing ceremonies. (5) The infrastructures, such as power facilities, which affect the daily life of APs, need to be restored in time. Some infrastructures have little impact on APs in the short term, needs to be restored in time after completion. 68 6 Compensation Policy and Standards According to the legal framework, combined with the actual situation of Chun’an County of Zhejiang Province, we make the compensation standards for this project. 6.1 LA of Rural Compensation standards LA compensation is based on the " Land Administration Law of the Peoples Republic of China", “Guiding opinions on improving Land Administration and Resettlement Compensation", “Land Administration Law of the Peoples Republic of China� implemented by Zhejiang province, " notice to update the basic data of benchmark land of Chun’an county" (Chun’an, 2016 No. 10) and Chun’an county "on the re-released notice of Chun’an county Land Administration area comprehensive price� and many other relevant policies and regulations. The detailed compensation standards for the compensation of permanent LA of rural collective land in this project are shown in table 19.

The land user will sign contract with land administrative departments or the rural collective economic organization and villagers' Committee for temporary occupation of collective land, and pay compensation fees to the ownership of land. Users of temporary land use will use land in accordance with the temporary use of land contract and will not build permanent buildings. When the contract is expired, the users are responsible for the restoration of the original use of the land; if cannot be restored, the users will pay compensation. The longest contract period is no more than 2 years. The provisional temporary land compensation standard is 1000 yuan / mu according to Zhejiang Province. LA compensation is paid to Chun’an Land Resource Bureau of Chun’an County by Qiandao Lake Construction Group Co., Ltd., and then transferred to AFs. 6.3Compensation standards for Affected Ground attachments and Ground Attachments Compensation standards for affected ground attachments and ground attachments are carried out in accordance with the principle of replacement.

The World Bank sent its task team as project pre-identification mission to visit the project areas and had discussions in line to the application to the World Bank involuntary resettlement policy OP 4.12 in February and June 2016. The World Bank task team, engaged provincial and municipal agencies reached agreements to the project components and the project areas, specific to the affected project areas and starting day of the resettlement census survey. From February to June 2016, the information of the cut-off day and the resettlement census survey were disseminated to all villagers through municipal, township agencies and village committees. The broad resettlement information disclosure received broad supports from villagers when the resettlement census survey team interviewed to each affected family to identify the potentially negative impacts toward to them since July 22, 2016. This census survey, combined by municipal, township agencies and village committees, was the milestone that the project preparation was started and the negative impacts will be accounted to be compensated, based on the World Bank and National 71 requirement. 72 7 Income and Livelihood Support Strategy Make reasonable compensation for the APs and ensure their livelihoods recover or exceed the original level. According to the actual living standard of the project area, and the national economic and social development plan of the county (District, city), the purposes of the resettlement are as follows: (1) Ensure self-sufficiency in food generally. Try to adjust the agricultural structure and improve land productivity in the areas with less cultivated land resources. (2) Ensure the per capita net income of APs restored to the pre-resettlement level. (3) Improve public infrastructures, schools, medical treatment, social welfare, natural environment and traffic conditions. All APs will be covered as part of the project construction and will be provided with adequate funding, making APs benefit from the project as much as possible. The temporary occupation of the rural collective economic will be compensated, including farming production restoring costs and compensation for APs, as funding for livelihood reconstructions. In the process of preparation and implementation, we encourage migrant’s participation. Meanwhile, we make every effort to information transparency, consultations, and fully respect the wishes of APs. All these will ensure the restoration of production and living standards of APs reach or exceed origin level. 7.1 Compensation for Permanent LA The compensation standard for permanent LA is varies from district from district. 39.4 Mu land of 12 affected villages is exquisite and the compensation fee is 1.11138 million yuan (28.2 thousand per mu).

Clearly, the county unified according to 16 mu / person calculation resettlement population." Due to the diversification of the development of each village and the different impact of project on villages, the relocation and income restoration plan is made in accordance with the willingness of APs. After the investigation of social economy and the affected village and representatives of resettlement persons, we make different resettlement and income recovery plan, namely the combination of monetary compensation and employment for resettlement restoration. Monetary compensation is that every APs is willing to accept and can receive. After obtaining monetary compensation, the LA households may be compensated by means of non-agricultural resettlement (including employment, training, going out to work, running small businesses, etc.). Plan One: Cash compensation This project offers cash compensation for affected villages and affected famers, according to “notice on the adjustment of basic life safeguard of Chun’an county LA APs" (issued by the [[2016]136] Chun’an County)�, this project offers cash compensation. In the compensation process, the fees for compensation and relocation are paid directly to affected farmers, including young seeds and ground attachments compensation. After receiving cash compensation, affected farmers can start both agricultural development and non-agricultural for livelihood restoration. Rural safe drinking water projects need to build water plants and install pipelines, resulting in loss of farmer’s land. Because Zhejiang is a developed province, the local farmers mainly rely on out-migrant work and the second or third industry-based income. The per capita income is exceeding over the other provinces in rest of the China. In 76 Chun’an County, much arable land left unused due to a large population of migrant workers. While the project will cause part farmers losing their land, the affected farmers are less dependent on their land and can transfer the land to neighbor without asking for rent. So, the impact of LA on farmers is tiny. Plan two: Non-agricultural Non-agricultural is mainly divided into employment guidance, employment opportunities from the project and skills training. (1) Employment Guidance. The township government provides employment services for agricultural surplus labor by organizing the employment meeting specially for affected farmers; providing them detailed information regarding related industries, providing legal advisory assistance and knowledge to assist affected farmers for non-agricultural employment. (2) Employment opportunities and arrangements offered by the project. According to estimates, the project will produce 8613 temporary jobs every year, including 1861 technical positions and 6752 non- technical positions during the implementing period, and will provide 212 permanent jobs, including 50 technical positions and 162 non-technical positions during the maintenance period. During the implementing period, jobs such as phase transformation in Miscanthus deforestation, plantation of new species will give priority to landless farmers, during the maintenance period, the permanent employment post will also give priority to landless farmers to promote former’s employment. (3) Skills Training. To help the land-loss farmers employed flexibly or startup businesses independently after receiving training, a skills training program has been developed for them., this project plans to train 750 persons. 1) Training objects: The training object must have registered permanent residence of Chun’an County, affected due to the Land loss, who are over 18 years of age and educated labors, related skills training certificate will be issued by the Chun’an County Personnel Bureau of labor and social security. 2) Training contents: For agriculture training, efficient seed production and 77 vegetables cultivation training will be given in accordance with the relocation plan. For non-agricultural training, chefs, waiters, and technical training, etc. are provided in accordance with social and economic development needs of Chun’an County. At the same time, Out-migrant workers will be trained in common sense of urban life, protection of rights and interests, safety in production, prevention and reduction of natural disasters, and national employment policies. 3) Organization arrangements. The training activities will be carried out by the Bureau of labor and social security of Chun’an county and township. The allocation of LA compensation fee (land compensation fee and resettlement subsidies fee) for each sub project-affected village is shown in table 22. Table 22 Ways of LA Compensation Fee Component Usage of payment method Payment LA compensation fee pays directly to APs method Payee Land Resource Bureau of Chun’an County 7.2Women's Rights and Interests The sub projects will take a series of measures to ensure that women's rights and interests are guaranteed during the preparation and implementation of the project. Mainly as follows: (1) Affected women will receive information relating to LA and must ensure participation in LA and public consultation. The compensation agreement must be signed by both husband and wife. (2) In technical training, priority is given to the affected women's labor to ensure that their economic status is not compromised; (3) To ensure that a certain number of women (at least 20% of unskilled labor) have access to non-skilled jobs during the project construction process. In addition, women will receive the same pay equally as men since they work the same way;; (4) During the operation of the project, priority will be given to catering, temporary employment and other positions to women affected by the project, to ensure 78 that their income is restored. 7.3Affected Infrastructure and Ground Attachments The affected infrastructure and ground attachments will be compensated as well as restored after the project by the property right unit. 7.4 Restoration of Temporary Land Occupation The dumping sites in the project construction will temporarily occupy the rural collective land, and the temporary occupation of the land will be compensated based on the actual occupation time. The construction period of the project is expected to be 24 months. According to the relevant regulations of Chun’an County, the temporary compensation for the area of 1000 yuan / mu·years, the temporary compensation will be paid directly to the APs. Where the farmland is occupied, the land restoration unit will be responsible for restoration. The temporary area will not be more than two years. 7.4.1Restoration Principles Based on the requirements of economic feasibility, technical, scientific, rational, comprehensive benefits, optimum and convenient operation, we made the principles combine the characteristics of the project and the actual situation in accordance with the local natural environment and social and economic development: 1) In line with the overall land use planning, land development and project planning requirements; 2) Engineering technology feasible and economical reasonable, to coordinate with social benefit, economic benefit and ecological benefit; 3) Carry out development according to local conditions and improve the feasibility; 4) Improve land use conditions, promote the sustainable utilization of land resources, improve land use efficiency and land quality, and optimize land use structure. 7.4.2Restoration Measures 1) Technical standards Temporary land restoration technical standards is made based on the "standard of land restoration technology (Trial)" the relevant provisions: flood control standard is 79 higher than the current land standard; the slope of the ground is generally not more than 5°; the drainage facilities meet the site requirements; the soil blocks will set drainage canal to meet the drainage requirements for paddy field; for drainage requirements, setting irrigation channels; the traffic in the restoration area is set according to the traffic requirement, pavement elevation will above the elevation of 30cm ~ 50cm. 2) restoration measures (1) The debris on the surface of soil will be removed for rehabilitation of land farming layer; (2) After the temporary use of the land has been completed, its basic level; (3) Completion of restoration of cultivated land; the quality of cultivated land will be the same as that before; (4) Finally, construction of irrigation and drainage channels and agricultural traffic network. 80 8 Institutional Arrangements and Implementation Schedule 8.1 Institutional Arrangement To ensure the implementation of the project, the World Bank loan work leading group is established in Zhejiang province.

During the construction, the original water supply facilities of the village will be affected which will bring difficulties for local peoples’ drinking water supply. Participation Process After the design plan has been determined, the requisition of land will be publicized and the disputes will be reflected within the prescribed time limit. Government agencies hold meetings of the APs, informing the participants of the government's policy and compensation standards for resettlement compensation. And negotiate with the affected person about the resettlement compensation scheme and the cost. The results of the meeting: The Chun'an farmers do not agree with the original design plan, asked the government to determine alternative Chun'an plant location. According to the geological conditions and technical feasibility conditions, Wei Ping town government and village secretary Chun'an consultations again and determine the new site. The new site is located 94 in the YeJia village, and the water can also supply to the Chun'an village. Participation results: Avoid social conflicts caused by site selection. Fully respect the views of the farmers and obtain their recognition and support, which is conducive to the development of the project. The formation of a transparent and fair treatment scheme for land acquisition events can be extended to the use of other events. Figure 4YeJia water-work new site 10.3 Grievance Procedure During the preparation and implementation process of RAP, public participation is encouraged. But some unforeseen problems may occur during the whole process. In order to solve the problem effectively, ensure the successful implementation of the project construction and LA.
