SFG3880 V2 REV World Bank financed-Zhejiang Qiandao Lake and Xin'an River Basin Water Resources and Ecological Environment Protection Project RESETTLEMENT ACTION PLAN OF World Bank-financed Zhejiang Qiandao Lake and Xin’an River Basin Water Resources and Ecological Environment Protection Project (Jiande) Jiande Project Management office February 2018 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. 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. I 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 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. II 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 cost1, 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 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. III 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 access to legally designated parks and protected areas resulting in adverse impacts on the livelihoods of the displaced persons.

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. This RAP is prepared for the feasibility study report of Jiande Sub-project. The sub-project of Jiande City involves 3 towns and 2 sub-districts. It includes a total of 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: ater Resources Management Improvement component. This component will support: (a) Wastewater Management; (b) Water Course Improvement; (c) Portable Water Supplies 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. According to the investigation, the components of Landscape Management Improvement Component involves the permanent land acquisition and temporary land occupation while the rest component do not cause any resettlement impacts. 2 Project Impacts Jiande Sub-project involves total 5 towns\sub-districts. By using the World Bank loan, the project occupies a total of 199 mu collective forestland. The total affected persons of this project includes 63 households with 196 persons. The project will temporarily occupies the land of 1626.15 mu . Total 1,799 households with 5,553 persons are affected by temporary land occupation. The temporary occupied land includes 5 mu of state-owned land (3.01%) and 1621.15 mu of rural collective land (99.69%) respectively. Jiande Total 509,200 persons will also be benefited from this project. I (1) Permanent acquisition of Rural Collective Land The permanent acquisition of collectively-owned land affects 10 administrative villages in 3 towns/sub-districts, covering about 199 mu of collective land, and affecting 63 households with 196 persons. Total 18 mu of land is occupied in Hangtou Town affecting 33 households with 108 persons. Total 155.8 mu of land is occupied in Xin’anjiang Sub-districts affecting 19 households with 53 persons. While, total 25.2 mu of land is occupied in Yangxi Sub-districts affecting 11 households with 35 persons. (2) No houses will be demolished by this project. (3) Temporary Occupation of Rural Collective Land The municipal engineering project and the water conservancy facility renovation project, are all long-liner projects. They have a small impact on the temporary occupation of rural collective land (while affecting total 1799 households with 5553 persons). The temporary land occupation includes 5 mu of state-owned land (3.01%) and 1621.15 mu of rural collective land (99.69%) respectively. 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. (4) Affected persons The project has a direct impact on the population of 5749 persons. Among them, Shouchang Town 11 households (34 persons), Hangtou Town 182 households (614 persons), Xin’an Street 19 households (53 persons), Yangxi Street 11 households (35 persons). Temporary land occupation affected 1799 households (5553 persons).Among the total Aps, 2902 persons are the females. 3 Policy Framework Adopting the principle of ‘resettlement impacts mitigation’, extensive consultations have been conducted with the APs on the issues including project site selection and compensation standards. 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 II Decisions for Further Reform and Strengthen Land Administration of State Council ([2004] No. 28) and OP4.12, etc. The payment for permanent LA, temporary land occupation and ground attachment compensation are implemented in accordance with the Notice on Adjusting the Integrated Location-based LA Compensation Rates in Jiande City (JZH [2014] No.119). The compensation for the permanent LA of the project will be compensated according to the integrated Location-based land acquisition prices. As the permanent land acquisition of Jiande sub-project only involves woodland, not involving APs’ livelihood. According to the regulation, the LA compensation rate for woodland is 24,000 Yuan/mu. The compensation will be paid directly to the APs. The temporary land occupation compensation will be paid directly to the APs according to the actual situation. The ground attachments will be reimbursed to the property owners in accordance with the replacement price. 4 Resettlement Measures The payment for permanent LA, temporary land occupation and ground attachment compensation are implemented in accordance with the Notice on Adjusting the Integrated Location-based LA Compensation Rates in Jiande City (JZH [2014] No.119). The compensation for the permanent LA of the project will be compensated according to the integrated Location-based land acquisition prices. As the permanent land acquisition of Jiande sub-project only involves woodland, not involving APs’ livelihood. According to the regulation, the LA compensation rate for woodland is 24,000 Yuan/mu. The compensation will be paid directly to the APs. The temporary land occupation compensation will be paid directly to the APs. The ground attachments will be reimbursed to the property owners in accordance with the replacement price. In order to ensure the safety of compensation on the permanent and temporary LA, payment of compensation will not be paid in cash but will be transferred to a special joint / individual bank account of APs. This will ensure financial security of APs, effectively prevent fund being withheld and misappropriation. At the same time, local township officers will guide the APs Regarding the proper utilization of compensation payment. 5 Supports to Vulnerable Groups and Women This project does not involve any vulnerable groups. Among the total Aps, 2902 persons are the females. The affected female has the same legal rights that the male has, including but not limited to land contracting, III accepting education, family planning and participating in elections. In addition to the same resettlement policies, women will: 1) have priority in employment; 2) receive agricultural and nonagricultural skills training; 3) receive resettlement information and participate in public consultation; 4) attend a special FGD for women to improve resettlement awareness; and 5) have the right to sign the compensation agreement. 6 Public Participation and Information Disclosure All APs have been informed of the key points of this RAP by various means, such as meetings, interviews, FGDs, public participation meetings and community consultations, and their opinions have been well incorporated into this RAP. During the project preparation phase, the support teams have been established in all affected villages. 3—5 representatives 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 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 possible complaints of the project may come from the collective land acquisition and so on. Local governments and village committees will take responsibility for coordinating and resolving the complaints and appeals during the resettlement process. “Supporting Group for Comprehensive Treatment of Ecological Environment of Qiandao Lake of Xin'an River� is also established to assist in handling disputes. APs can appeal for any aspect of the resettlement, including compensation standards and so on. The appeal channel of this project has been ensured with IV establishing the local support team, and the relevant institutions will accept complaints for free. The reasonable expenses incurred will be paid in the unforeseeable cost of the project. 8 Institutional Arrangement In order to ensure the successful implementation of the project, a project leading group in Jiande City has been established for overall leadership and high-level coordination. Meantime, to ensure the smoothly implementation of RAP, more measures have been conducted, such as strengthening the communication with the Zhejiang provincial 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 Development and Reform Bureau of Jiande City, 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.

The 3 towns and 2 streets are Shouchang town, Hangtou town, Datong town, Xin'anjiang Street and Yangxi Street. 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 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 1 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 will provide 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 the lakeshore, between the shoreline and the first ridge, where most degraded and monoculture forests are located and where most fires occur. (d) Wetland Management,by piloting the restoration and improvement of wetlands, to reduce pollution loads in water and enhance the water storage capacity and biodiversityof the catchment, One wetland located in Hangtou township in Jiande will be used to demonstrate the wetland management technical design and long-term operation. Component 2: Water Resources Management Improvement This component would support: (a) Wastewater Management. In particular, it would finance expanding one existing wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) from 5,000 m3/day to 10,000 m3/day and build the associated sewer trunk main and network to collect and treat the wastewater from two townships, which will serve as shared environmental infrastructure for two townships in Jiande city. (b) 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 2 channels, and the rehabilitation weirs in the five selected catchments. (c) 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. 3 Table 1 Components of Jiande Sub-project Project Component Project Town / Village Project Construction Scale and Parameters Resettlement Impact Name Name Community /street Low Bridge Datong Town Yongping 12 bridges reconstructed along Qingtan River Temporary occupation of state - Impact renovation Qingtan owned unused land, no APs Crop project Xuhan Production Forest Fire Xin’anjiang Street Youyi 13 km Fire emergency access, 10 km drainage channel, Permanent collection of collective Practice Emergency 8800 m3, retaining wall, 40 drainage culvert, 4 public forest land, without affecting the Component Corridor toilets. livelihood of the farmers Project Construction of Wulong 9 km Fire emergency access road, including 8.203km Permanent collection of collective Baolingkeng main road lasts for, branch line length 0.815km, road forest land, without affecting the Reservoir Central width 4 meters. livelihood of the farmers Section of Hangtou Town Ecological Upstream of Nanba The proposed wetland area is the upgrading of the Within the river bank, the existing wetland Shouchang River, natural wetland in the original floodplain area, with a floating beach, only involved in the project Nanba section total area of about 16,247.2 m2 construction period of temporary land, no APs Sewage Shouchang Town Shanfeng Rough grille and pump station will utilize the land The construction of contents within treatment acquisitioned in first phase of the project the sewage treatment plant is located plant phase I in a range of wall, the land was extension acquisitioned in 2008 project Agricultural A total of Datong Organic fertilizer and soil testing formula fertilizer Temporary land occupation non-point Town, Hang Town promotion; Pest and disease prevention and control; source and Shouchang Aquaculture non - point source pollution control pollution Town, 3 townships project; Construction of ecological ditch control and 75 villages. project Plantation Involving a total of 3 Afforestation, Forest facies transformation, Health Temporary land occupation Restoration towns, 13 villages; management and two state-owned 4 Project Component Project Town / Village Project Construction Scale and Parameters Resettlement Impact Name Name Community /street Afforestation forest Water River Shouchang Town Chengdon Ecological embankment improvement, 1.8km (left and Temporary occupation of state - Resources comprehensi g right bank, each is 0.9km) owned land without compensation Manageme ve renovation nt project Improveme Wulongxi Hangtou Town Dadianko 13 ecological weirs with the average height about 1.2 Temporary land occupation, nt comprehensi u meters; 12.2 km ecological embankment improvement, agriculture, forestry construction, Component ve Pengjia 4.2 km embankment ecological restoration, 16.2 km unused land, involving no land : management Qianyuan embankment greening, 10.3 km drainage channels in acquisition project Wulong forest area, 12 mountain pools; drip irrigation facilities Hangtou Installation for 1,000 m land Shimuling Hangchua n Datong Town Datong Town Datong Datong Creek, Fengjia Creek, Qingtan Creek, temporary land occupation Datong Sancun Zhenyuan Creek ecological comprehensive Creek, Feng Langjia management, total length of 35.78 km, including river Jiaxi, Xuhan greening, village ecological revetment and so on.

In the stage of engineering design,the land acquisition and relocation will be minimized. The main principles are as follows: Avoid or minimize the occupation of existing and planning residential areas；Avoid or minimize the occupation of high quality cultivated land；Avoid or minimize the use of environmental sensitive areas. Use existing national and local roads to the draft construction areas. It will beaccord with the overall development plan and the relevant special plan requirements of Jiande City, and the project design and location principle will be able to promote the realization of the planning objectives. Implement the basic national policies of road traffic, drinking water safety and environmental protection. Implement the relevant policies, regulations, norms and standards in the fields mentioned above,which formulated by state. Adhere to the national policies of environmental protection and energy conservation. Reduce pollution to the surrounding environment, and make the rational planning of green land, build green projects. 1.5.2 Project Planning and Design Phase The project authorities have designed some affective measure in planning and design phase to reduce the construction impacts of the project on social and economic condition of the locals. ➢ In the planning phase of the project, to reduce land acquisition and resettlement to reduce the negative impact of the project on the local economy used as a key factor in project optimization selection. ➢ In the process of locating the layout of the project, the design unit makes reasonable analysis of the line direction, laying the pipe network in the middle or edge of the road, optimizing the construction methods, minimizing the housing demolition. ➢ Optimization design, reasonable arrangement of the project. As far as possible occupy the wasteland, sloping land and state-owned and minimize the acquisition of arable land. 8 1.5.3 Construction Stage of Project ➢ Reduce the impacts of pipeline excavation. In the process of pipeline excavation, the working surface will be properly spray to keep a certain humidity. Meanwhile, the fence or partial fence will be adopted to reduce the diffusion range of construction dust. And dust emissions. Building materials and construction waste will be cleaned in time. Beware of truck loading, and try to cover, airtight measures, reduce the spilled ways and timely cleaning the dirt and dust scattered on the road. ➢ Pipe network excavation. Network excavation as far as possible in the fall and winter season, so that soil erosion can be reduced. Especially during the Tour season, the excavation of the network will be avoided and the impacts on the local tourism will be reduced. ➢ Does not utilize arable land during the crop season. ➢ To reduce the constructions impact on farmer’s cultivation and harvesting, it is better to avoid the construction in the harvesting season. ➢ 5) Disclose construction information in advance: The project construction team needs to inform the affected farmers in advance to reduce the loss of agricultural input / output ➢ Farmland restoration. In the course of construction, the soil of the tillage layer needs to be piled up centrally and backfilled to reduce the losses of the farmers. 1.5.4 Land Acquisition and Implementation Stage of Project When land acquisition and resettlement are unavoidable, in order to reduce the project impacts on the local, the following measures will be taken: 1) Strengthen the collection of basic data and analyzed the local socio-economic status and future development in depth, working out feasible RAP according to the local conditions and ensure that the persons who affected by the project are not hurt by the component construction. 2) Encourage public participation actively, strengthen information disclosure and accept the supervision of APs. 3) Strengthen the internal and external monitoring, establish efficient and unobstructed feedback mechanism and channel. Shorten the information processing cycle as much as possible in order to ensure all kinds of problems which appeared in the process of the project implementation can be resolved timely. 9 1.6 Linkage Project2 Identification Sewage treatment plant phase-I extension project of Jiande Sub-project is located in Shanfeng Village, Chengnan City (Shouchang).

The farmlands were mainly used to produce rice, mulberry-leaves, Chinese walnut, and vegetables. Based on the field investigation, 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. 3.3.5.4 Household Asset For the sampled 21 households housing construction area is 6783 m2, the average housing area is 323 m2 Mostly brick and concrete building. 3.3.5.5 Labor force employment structure For the sampled 21 households (that including total 61 persons), there were 44 31 labor workers, of which 10 were employed in the enterprises, accounting for 25.81% of the total labor force; 12 persons were working outside, accounting for 20.43% of the total labor force; 16 persons engaged in sideline occupations, accounting for 24.73 % of the total labor force; 23 persons engaged in agricultural production, accounting for 29.03 % of the total labor force. More details please see the Fig.3 25.81% 29.03% 24.73% 20.43% Agriculture work sideline business Figure 3 Labor Force Employment Structure 3.3.5.6 Annual Household Income and Expenditure Through the survey of 21 households, 61 People’s household income and expenditure statistics. According to the household investigation, annual per capita household income was 21434.1 Yuan. It included 149.54 Yuan of agricultural-income (accounting for 0.7% of total income), 6500 Yuan of wage income (accounting for 30.33%), 13511.11 Yuan of employment income (accounting for 63.04% of total income), and 1273.43 Yuan of other nonagricultural-income (accounting for 5.94% of total income). In terms of expenditure, annual per capita household expenditure was 47676.1 Yuan. It included 903 Yuan of electric expenditure (18.94%),10Yuan of living water expenditure (0.21%), 900 Yuan of living expenditure (18.88%) and, purchase of home appliances and other expenses is 130 yuan/person, accounting for 2.73%; 242 Yuan of other expenses accounted for 5.08% of household total expenditure, respectively. More details please see the Table 29. From the income and expenditure structure, Agricultural income accounting for a very low share of household income, while workers account for a very high proportion 32 of household income. This shows that the affected persons is less dependent on land. Therefore, the agricultural resettlement does not apply to this project. And this project only collects collective woodland, does not affect the farmers’ income and livelihood source. So, cash compensation can solve the problem. Household income and expenditure of households surveyed are shown in Table 15.

Most of the affected village labor force is employed in non-agricultural employment (only 21.56% of the labor force is engaged in agricultural production and is the older labor force). Although the affected villages are agricultural accounts, but the agricultural income is not their main source of income (about 0.7% of total income), land acquisition on the affected households’ production and income has little effect. 34 4 Legal and Policy Framework 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.

If the impacts include physical relocation, the RAP or resettlement policy framework should take appropriate measures to ensure that APs during relocation assistance (such as moving allowances); access to housing or housing sites, or agricultural sites as required. Production potential of agricultural production sites, location advantages, and other factors is at least equivalent to the advantages of the old site. To achieve the policy goals, the RAP or resettlement policy framework should also take corresponding measures when necessary, to ensure that after the resettlement, according to the possible time that restoration of livelihoods and standards of living, reasonable estimate the transitional period, during this transitional period get help inside; In addition, resettlers still can be obtained, such as soil preparation, the development of the credit, training or employment assistance. 4.3 The Main Difference between World Bank’s policies and between Chinese’s law Land resettlement compensation 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. 39 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 demand 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 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. 4.4Policy Principles The project mainly occupies the rural collective woodland, which the livelihoods of the APs will not be damaged. The principles for compensation and resettlement have been developed in accordance with the regulations and policies mentioned above, with 40 the aim of ensuring that APs obtain sufficient compensation as the role of ‘replacement price’, and negative feedbacks of the LA can be avoided. Moreover, assistance measures will be implemented to ensure that their production and livelihoods are at least restored to pre-project levels. ➢ Involuntary resettlement will be avoided if anywhere feasible ➢ APs can obtain sufficient compensation as the role of ‘replacement price’. ➢ Opportunities will be provided to the APs to participate in the planning and implementation of the RAP. ➢ Assistance measures will be implemented to ensure that the production and livelihood of APs are at least restored to pre-project levels. 4.5Cut-off date The cut-off day was set up as the day of July 22, 2016, agreed upon by the World Bank task team, engaged provincial agencies and municipal agencies.

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. 2.2.2 Measures as Required Borrower shall prepare for a RAP or resettlement policy framework, which covers the following: RAP or resettlement policy framework includes measures to ensure that APs are informed about their resettlement issues options and other rights; understanding technically and economically viable option, participate in the consultation, and enjoy the opportunity to choose; at full replacement cost, access to prompt and effective compensation to offset the direct property loss caused by the project. If the impacts include physical relocation, the RAP or resettlement policy framework should take appropriate measures to ensure that APs during relocation assistance (such as moving allowances); access to housing or housing sites, or agricultural sites as required. Production potential of agricultural production sites, location advantages, and other factors is at least equivalent to the advantages of the old site. To achieve the policy goals, the RAP or resettlement policy framework should also take corresponding measures when necessary, to ensure that after the resettlement, according to the possible time that restoration of livelihoods and standards of living, reasonable estimate the transitional period, during this transitional period get help inside; In addition, resettlers still can be obtained, such as soil preparation, the development of the credit, training or employment assistance. 2.3 The Main Difference between World Bank’s policies and between Chinese’s law Land resettlement compensation 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 96 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 demand 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 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. 97 2.4 Policy Principles The project mainly occupies the rural collective woodland, which the livelihoods of the APs will not be damaged. The principles for compensation and resettlement have been developed in accordance with the regulations and policies mentioned above, with the aim of ensuring that APs obtain sufficient compensation as the role of ‘replacement price’, and negative feedbacks of the LA can be avoided. Moreover, assistance measures will be implemented to ensure that their production and livelihoods are at least restored to pre-project levels. ➢ Involuntary resettlement will be avoided if anywhere feasible ➢ APs can obtain sufficient compensation as the role of ‘replacement price’. ➢ Opportunities will be provided to the APs to participate in the planning and implementation of the RAP. Assistance measures will be implemented to ensure that the production and livelihood of APs are at least restored to pre-project levels. 2.5 Cut-off Date The time standard for qualification of resettlements is the date of the announcement of LA (22 July, 2016). Formal notification is issued through the release of information manuals, posting notices in villages or conducting seminars. After this date, resettlements must not build, expand or rebuild their houses; must not change their status of land use. 2.6Compensation standards 2.6.1 Compensation Standards of Rural Collective Land Permanently Acquisition According to the principle, standard and procedure of the resettlement compensation are in accordance with the Land Administration Law of the PRC, Notice on Adjusting the Comprehensive Land Price for Land Acquisition in Jiande City (JZH [2014] No.119) More details please see the Table 5.
