The project is implemented in the 81 provinces nationwide and is funded through a US$671.25 million loan financing from the World Bank (US$501.25 million from the original loan and US$170 million first additional financing1) and the Global Environment Facility (GEF) grant of US$7.0 million, with counterpart funding of US$163.34 million from the Philippine Government through the DA, and the Local Government Units (LGUs). The project became effective in December 3, 2014 with an original closing date of May 31, 2021. The PRDP was granted two-year extension for both the original loan and the first additional financing extending the loan closing date to May 31, 2023. The PRDP aims to provide an operational Agriculture and Fishery Modernization and Industrialization Plan (AFMIP) for an integrated technical support service delivery at the local and national levels, build strategic network of rural logistics infrastructure within priority value chains in targeted Project areas, strengthen and develop viable rural enterprises through efficient supply/value chain of key agricultural and fishery products in targeted Project areas, implement and model innovations towards more effective and efficient institutional support systems for Project implementation, and institutionalize stakeholder engagement. The thrust of PRDP to develop a market-oriented and climate-resilient agriculture and fishery sector will be articulated through its four (4) components: i) Local and National Level Planning (I-PLAN), ii) Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD), iii) Enterprise Development (I-REAP) and, iv) Project Implementation Support (I-SUPPORT). Subprojects implemented under components Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD) and Enterprise Development (I-REAP) undergo various screenings and reviews such that project implementation accord to the governing principles and guidelines for development projects. In 2020, the Project took on additional financing from the World Bank and the European Union to respond to the Covid-19 pandemic. The Project components remained the same but with greater emphasis on I-REAP and other activities that help ensure food security. The geographic scope was still nationwide but with increased focus in BARMM and on Indigenous Peoples. Since the beginning of project implementation in 2014, PRDP has been operating in BARMM (previously ARMM) and working with Indigenous Peoples. The Project has dedicated staff in the region who oversee safeguards compliance including for requirements on Indigenous Peoples. As PRDP was borne out of the success of the Mindanao Rural Development Program (MRDP) which focused only in Mindanao, familiarity with World Bank’s safeguards policies aided well in compliance and PRDP has not seen the need to adjust its requirements in conflict areas. However, with the AF focusing on low-capacity local government units who may not have been reached by either MRDP or PRDP before, there may be a need to develop a decision process for enrolling them into PRDP and adopt social 1 Initial tranche of the US$ 450 Million Additional Financing approved by the NEDA Board last November 4, 2016. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 9 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual preparation processes to ensure that subprojects do not exacerbate the existing conflict in the area, that the project can be implemented, and that safeguards compliance can be effectively monitored. The Project is aware that these issues go beyond safeguards. 1.2 Environmental and Social Safeguards The Environmental and Social Safeguards (ESS) is one of the Project support unit of the Mindanao Rural Development Program (MRDP2) that will be adopted in PRDP to ensure that subprojects to be implemented are not only technically, economically and financially viable, but are also environmentally and socially sound and sustainable. The ESS operates according to the provisions of the Philippine Environmental Impact Statement Law (Presidential Decree 1586), the Philippine Indigenous Peoples Rights Act (Republic Act 8371), the Right of Way Act (Republic Act 8974, now RA 10752) and their implementing rules and regulations and the operational policies of the World Bank on Environmental Assessment (Operational Policy/Bank Policy 4.01), Natural Habitats (Operational Policy/Bank Policy 4.04), Pest Management (Operational Policy 4.09), Indigenous Peoples (Operational Policy/Bank Policy 4.10) and Involuntary Resettlement (Operational Policy/Bank Policy 4.12). The Project adheres to the Bank Procedure (BP) 17.50 or Disclosure Policy that promotes transparency, accountability, accessibility to information, public dialogue and engagement with stakeholders. The disclosure policy supports decision making by the Project by allowing the public access to information on environmental and social aspects of the subprojects. Each of the safeguards policies have specific requirements for disclosure. The means by which the Project complies with the disclosure policy would include the following: conduct of meaningful consultation processes; disclosure of pertinent environmental and social safeguards project documents at the PRDP website; and posting of project information at the subproject sites. Aimed at ensuring that the people and the environment are not adversely affected by the projects, the ESS requirements encompass all project components. All proposed subprojects, particularly under Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD) and Enterprise Development (I- REAP) components, shall undergo environmental screening conforming to the environmental guidelines. Project implementation will also determine if construction activities cause to displace and affect persons such that appropriate resettlement, compensation and rehabilitation plans in accordance to land acquisition, resettlement and rehabilitation framework are being formulated for the project affected persons. Moreover, the ESS involves project affected rural communities, particularly involving the indigenous peoples and communities, in the planning and design of subproject that accord with the provisions in the Indigenous Peoples (IP) policy framework. The Environmental and Social Safeguards (ESS) unit as one of the Project support units shall also readily respond to emergency and crisis situations to ensure that compliance to Safeguards remain satisfactory. In December 2019, an outbreak of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), an infectious disease caused by a new strain of coronavirus began in Wuhan, China. Following the outbreak in China, many other countries including the Philippines reported increasing number of cases of the virus prompting the World Health Organization Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 10 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual (WHO) to declare COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020. Based on the WHO Coronavirus Disease (COVID-19) Dashboard, globally, as of 4:36pm CEST, 16 September 2020, there have been 29,444,198 confirmed cases of COVID-19, including 931,321 deaths, reported to WHO. To ensure safety and health of the public, communities, workers and personnel amidst COVID- 19, the PRDP prepared a set of guidelines and tools adhering to the Safeguards Policies of the World Bank as well as the new policy issuances, protocols and standards of the Philippine Government. The IESSF Supplemental Guidelines on COVID19 Public Health Crisis is discussed in Chapter 6. 1.3 Institutional Arrangements for Environmental and Social Safeguards Municipal Project Management and Implementation Unit (MPMIU) – The MPMIU shall have as its members the Municipal Planning and Development Officer (MPDO), the Municipal Engineer or anyone who is an engineer by profession, and another one who is an environmental practitioner or has an environmental assessment/management background or has undergone basic training in environmental safeguards.

The menu of eligible infrastructure interventions for Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD) will be the same as that of PRDP, but with a wider geographical reach and augmented with fisheries-related support infrastructure and facilities such as fish landings. Enterprise Development, on the other hand, will fund similar interventions provided under the CFAD and NRM components of MRDP2. These would include under the Enterprise Development (I-REAP) component, community livelihood subprojects involving crop, fishery and animal production and establishment and operation of common service facilities in production, postharvest and marketing; and natural resource management interventions such as mangrove rehabilitation, marine sanctuary establishment, artificial reef establishment, stream bank stabilization measures, upland reforestation, and aqua- silviculture. Most activities/sub-projects are small-scale with localized, manageable and temporary environmental impacts and are not covered by the existing Philippine Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 16 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Environmental Impact Statement System (PEISS)3. However, some while they are non- environmentally-critical may be located in critical areas4 and hence may be covered by the PEISS. This Environmental Management Framework and Guidelines (EMFG) will guide the screening, preparation, review and approval of Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD) and Enterprise Development (I-REAP) subprojects. 2.2 Environmental Safeguards Systems The EMFG will provide four layers of environmental safeguards to the Project. These are: (i) the adoption of general policies pertaining to the types and location of developments that can be pursued by the LGUs; (ii) the conformance of individual subprojects to technical guidelines and specifications; (iii) the screening and review under the Philippine EIS system; (iv) the environmental and social assessments (EA/SA) resulting in the environmental and social management/mitigation plan (ESMP) which are undertaken as part of the subproject feasibility studies. It should be noted that an ESMP is still required for subprojects deemed not covered under the Philippine EIS system. This would ensure that environmental and social impacts for such non- covered subprojects under the Philippine EIS are addressed. 2.2.1 Adoption of Local Environmental Policies The Project will adopt a set of general policies pertaining to the types and location of infrastructure or development in the project areas. Formulated under PRDP, these policies will guide LGUs on the proper use of the uplands, lowlands, and coastal areas. Participating LGUs are required to adopt the following land use and protection policies: a) Gently to moderately sloping grasslands (5-18% slope) may be put to intensive agricultural production that requires seasonal and periodic cultivation using sloping agricultural land technologies (SALT). b) Grassland areas with slope gradients of 18-30% if utilized for agricultural production should be utilized only for establishment of orchards and 3 Under DENR Administrative Order 2003-30, these are “Category D” Projects or Projects unlikely to cause adverse environmental impacts (Sec. 4.5, DAO 2003-30). Projects classified under Category D may secure a Certificate of Non-Coverage (CNC). The Environmental Management Bureau (EMB-DENR), however, may require such projects or undertakings to provide additional environmental safeguards as it may deem necessary (Sec. 4.6, DAO 2003-30). 4 Under DENR Administrative Order 2003-30, these are “Category B” Projects, or Projects that are not categorized as Environmentally Critical Projects (ECPs), but which may cause negative environmental impacts because they are located in Environmentally Critical Areas (ECAs) (Sec. 4.5, DAO 2003-30). Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 17 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual industrial tree plantation. c) Grassland/open lands with slope gradients of 30-50% or more shall only be developed into intensive agro-forestry farm or utilized as community forest. d) All stream banks starting from 100 meters above sea level up to the highest tributary shall maintain a 50-meter and 20-meter vegetative riparian buffer for riverbanks and creek/stream bank protection, respectively. e) Areas utilized for aquaculture/fishpond shall maintain a 50-meter mangrove buffer between the fishpond and open sea for coastal protection. f) Existing mangrove forests shall no longer be subjected to alternative land use conversion but shall be maintained in support of fishery production and coastal protection Projects. g) Establishment of pasture areas shall include planting of shade trees on 20-meter wide strips on both sides of creeks/rivers. h) Mudflats on coastal areas covered under NRM subprojects shall be planted to mangrove species. i) Remaining forests within area of influence of PRDP subprojects shall be protected from agricultural encroachments, illegal logging and forest product harvesting and hunting; if forests are present within the influence area of FMRs, the concerned LGUs must include a forest protection plan/Project in conjunction with the subproject proposal. 2.2.2 Environmental Screening and Review under the Philippine Environmental Impact Statement System (PEISS) All subprojects are subject to environmental screening under PEISS. Under the PEISS, certain project types that are considered environmentally critical (Table 2-1) and all projects that are located in environmentally critical areas (Table 2-2) are required to prepare an Environmental Impact Statement. The DENR Admin Order (DAO) No 30 Series of 2003 has further defined four categories of projects, based on their type, scale and location. Category A projects are considered environmentally critical projects (ECPs). Category B projects are not considered environmentally critical but are located in environmentally critical areas (ECAs) and are above certain scale or size thresholds. Category C-type projects are environmental enhancements such as wastewater treatment and solid waste management. Lastly, Category D projects are neither environmentally critical types nor located in environmentally critical areas or those that are below not environmentally critical but located in environmentally critical areas and are below certain scale or size thresholds. Category D subprojects are not required to prepare environmental impact statements (EIS). The Revised Procedural Manual for DENR DAO 2003- 30 specifies the scale or size thresholds below which a non ECP located in ECA would fall under Category D.

Environmentally Critical Areas (ECAs) Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 20 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual i. All areas declared by law as national parks, watershed reserves, wildlife preserves and sanctuaries; ii. Areas classified as prime agricultural lands; iii. Areas frequently visited and/or hard-hit by natural calamities (geologic hazards, floods, typhoons, volcanic activity, etc.) iv. Areas of unique historic, archaeological, or scientific interests; v. Areas set aside as aesthetic potential tourist spots; vi. Areas which are traditionally occupied by cultural communities or tribes; vii. Areas which constitute the habitat for any endangered or threatened species of indigenous Philippine Wildlife (flora and fauna); viii. Areas with critical slopes (slopes of 40% or greater); ix. Recharged areas of aquifers; x. Water bodies characterized by one or any combination of the following conditions: a. tapped for domesticpurposes; b. within the controlled and/or protected areas declared by appropriate authorities; c. which support wildlife and fishery activities. xi. Mangrove areas characterized by one or any combination or the following conditions: a. with primary pristine and dense young growth; b. adjoining mouth of major river systems; c. near or adjacent to traditional productive fry or fishing grounds; xii. Areas which act as natural buffers against natural erosion, strong winds and storm floods; xiii. Coral reef characterized by one or any combination of the following conditions: a. With 50% and above coralline cover; b. Spawning and nursery grounds for fish; c. Which act as natural breakwater of coastlines. It is expected that most of the Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD) subprojects and Enterprise Development (I-REAP) enterprises will fall within either Category B or D. For Category D subprojects, the proponent group or LGU should also obtain from DENR a certificate of non- coverage (CNC). Category B subprojects are required under PEISS to undergo Initial Environmental Examination (IEE). The IEE, which also contains the environmental and social management plan (ESMP), will serve as the subproject’s environmental impact statement (EIS) which will be subject to review by the DENR with the issuance of an environmental compliance certificate (ECC) as the desired outcome.

In doing so and Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 24 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual especially for subprojects that are not listed above, the proponent group or LGU should consult the latest version of the Revised Procedural Manual for DAO 30-2003 to be provided by the RPCO; the latest guidelines prevail in cases of conflict with the above classification guidelines. While no Category A subprojects are expected, in case there is/are subprojects falling under such category, as well as Category B, the proponent LGU shall fill up Inform 1 and submit the same to the concerned regional office of the Environmental Management Bureau (EMB) for evaluation. The World Bank will conduct prior review of subprojects falling under Category A when warranted. 2.2.3 Environmental Guidelines Each subproject will have to conform to the technical guidelines and specifications prepared for each type of subproject (Annex B). For most common subproject types namely, farm-to- market road, potable water supply and communal irrigation systems, illustrated technical guidelines for environmentally sound design are also provided. The guidelines also include requirements of other World Bank Policies that are relevant to the subprojects. Pest Management: DA’s Integrated Pest Management (KASAKALIKASAN) Project, shall be introduced if not already in the subproject areas and enhanced if already existing. This is particularly required in the services areas of communal irrigation subprojects and in the influence areas of farm-to-market roads. The project will support the adoption of the IPM Project under the KASAKALIKASAN Project. DA’s IPM Project underscores the Philippine government’s commitment to Agenda 21 of the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development in promoting sustainable agriculture and rural development. The Project trains, empowers and develops farmers’ skills in making critical and informed decisions towards a more productive, profitable and sustainable crop production system. It employs an experiential learning approach through the Farmer Field Schools (FFSs) to enable farmers to practice IPM. The IPM training process effectively involves farmers in the field over the entire season of crop production for them to be more engaged and develop their capabilities to discover and hone their acquired scientific management skills. This participatory, experiential and discovery-based learning approach has been highly successful in sustaining FFS farmers to continue to adopt IPM principles and become partner advocates for a healthy rice, corn and vegetable production. The Project had a significant shift in agricultural extension exhibiting farming practices with reduced use of insecticides (particularly from toxic to non-toxic), increased insecticide non-users, and reduced frequency of insecticide application. DA has continued to instigate partner LGUs to mobilize local resources and support for IPM which has been instrumental for the Project to be sustainable. The Project will expand and institute DA’s IPM standard approach to crop husbandry and pest management, and adopt the existing guidelines in the formulation of Pest Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 25 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Management Plan. This is to ensure that farmers particularly those who operate in the service areas of irrigation projects and those engaged in the production of agriculture and fishery-based commodities identified along the value chain are knowledgeable on proper land preparation, water and nutrient management and effective insect, pest or weeds control. The Project shall further strengthen the implementation of the existing regulations on the use of agrichemicals and other pesticides, identify banned pesticides and compounds from usage, and formulate mitigating measures to lessen, if not avoid, the hazards to human health and the environment brought by pesticide utilization. It shall collaborate with research institutions and technical experts with whom DA has been partnering for capacity-building activities to ensure full integration of IPM Project in the whole production system, including the sustainability of the natural resources and protection of the environment Natural Habitat: The Project will not fund subprojects that are located within or that encroach into any declared or proposed Protected Area of natural habitat. The subproject proponent must show that the farm-to-market roads do not traverse areas of critical natural habitat and that irrigation subprojects do not result in the conversion of areas of natural habitat for use in rice lands or other agricultural uses. Forests: The Project will not fund subprojects that may encroach into a forest, except for subprojects involving mangrove rehabilitation, which is eligible for funding under the Project. Any mangrove rehabilitation subproject to be funded under the Project must include measures that address any potential impacts of the subproject on the existing mangrove forest and/or the rights and welfare of local communities that are dependent or traditionally have been accessing the mangrove forests for their livelihood. The Community Based Forest Management (CBFM) model is deemed compliant with this requirement. Physical Cultural Resources: The Project will not fund subprojects that displace, damage or render, inaccessible or inoperable, sites or structures of cultural or historical significance. Safety of Dams: The EMFG will cover only small dams or dams with height lower than or equal to 10 meters, measured as the vertical distance between the lowest point on the dam crest and the lowest point in the original streambed measured at the toe of the dam. Subprojects involving small dams shall have the following additional requirements. a) The Dam Engineering Design should be done and/or approved by a qualified engineer; b) The construction of dam shall be supervised by a qualified engineer; c) The environmental assessment section of the feasibility studies of subprojects involving dams shall include a brief risk assessment of dam Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 26 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual failure and impacts on the environment and on downstream communities and assets, with corresponding mitigating measures reflected in the ESMP; d) A dam safety plan shall be prepared. The plan shall address not only the risk of dam breach but also other safety hazards at the dam facility, including measures against accidental drowning at dam sites, and; e) All other applicable requirements for processing subprojects as provided in this EMFG. Subprojects involving construction of large dams defined herein as dams that have height of more than 10 meters but less than 15 meters in height, or those that would depend on existing large dams or large dams under construction shall not be processed under this EMFG. Such dams would require higher levels of capacities among LGUs to manage and address issues involving high dams, more project financing and longer gestation/preparation time. Hence, the processing of these subprojects would require specific steps different from the usual subproject processing system already established in MRDP2 and to be adopted in PRDP. In view of these, the subprojects shall instead be processed according to the procedures described in the World Bank‘s OP/BP 4.37 on Dam Safety. These subprojects shall also undergo full independent Environmental Impact Assessments. Subproject proponents (MLGUs, PLGUs or proponent groups) must consult with these guidelines when conceptualizing and preparing their subprojects. During the safeguards review/appraisal by RPCO, the subproject location, design and other documentary requirements will be checked for conformance to and/or compliance with the applicable guidelines. 2.2.4 Environmental and Social Management Plan All Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD) and Enterprise Development (I-REAP) subprojects shall undergo rapid environmental and social assessments as part of their feasibility studies and Business Plan (BP). The environmental and social assessments (which form part of the feasibility study reports) should contain sufficient information about the environmental and social conditions of the subproject site and allow the proponent to prepare the Environmental and Social Management or Mitigation Plans (ESMPs). Annex C outlines the minimum information requirements of the Environmental and Social Assessments in the Subproject Feasibility Study Report. The ESMPs should be submitted as part of the project proposal package along with the Feasibility Study reports and other safeguards documentary requirements. For those subprojects not covered under PEISS, the ESMP shall be a simple standalone matrix containing: a. The issues or impacts of the subproject; b. Their brief assessments or qualifications of their significance given the site’s environmental conditions; c. The proposed mitigation measures, if there are any that are needed, and; Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 27 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual d. The means of implementation of the measures which could be either of the following: i. Engineering design specification – the measure will be incorporated in the engineering design ii. Project of work – the measure shall be included in the Project of work iii. Contract – the measure shall be part of the construction contract; iv. O&M – as part of the LGU’s operation and maintenance Project; v. IP policy framework; and, vi. Land acquisition, rehabilitation and resettlement framework. ESMP templates have been developed for a generic subproject and those that were frequently proposed under PRDP such as farm-to-market roads, communal irrigation system/project, potable water supply and various enterprise subprojects (Please see Annex D and ESMP templates in Annex E). The Siting Criteria and Operational Guidelines of batching plant, quarry, borrow pits and spoil/excess soil disposal sites (Annex E-10) shall be required as attachments to the ESMP for reference of Contractors. All Social Assessment/Environment Assessment (SA/EA), ECC with IEEs/EIAs and ESMPs shall be disclosed at the PRDP Website upon issuance of Safeguards Clearance by the RPCO/PSO. For subprojects covered under PEISS, the ESMP (Annex E) will be part of the IEE/EIA and will follow the DENR-prescribed format, provided that the same should also address all the safeguards policy requirements in this Framework. 2.3 Environmental Monitoring Compliance with the safeguards requirements and ESMP measures by the subproject proponent and any actual environmental and social issues associated with the subproject that may crop up during the course of subproject preparation, construction and operation will be periodically monitored. The subproject proponent is required to submit every month a Compliance and Impact Monitoring Report to the RPCO using the form provided in Annex F. 2.4 Assessment of PRDP Year 1 Subprojects The PRDP Year 1 (Annex A) subprojects to be implemented will include those which were proposed in the supposed PRDP additional financing and CPRDP. Environmental and social safeguards requirement of Year 1 subprojects will be prepared, reviewed and approved by the DA following the existing PRDP Environmental Framework and Guidelines with respect to their technical feasibility, economic viability and environmental soundness. Subproject’s environmental soundness, i.e. well-managed environmental impacts, its design, location and implementation, should be formulated according to the environmental guidelines as set forth in this framework. At the PLGU level, environmental screening of subprojects should determine the subproject classification according to Presidential AO No. 42 and DAO 2003-30. Once their classification is known, appropriate environmental assessment method and document will be complied for the application of an Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC), if covered by the PEISS, or a Certificate of Non-Coverage not (CNC), ifand Integrated Environmental covered Social by Framework Safeguards PEISS, whichever 28 is appropriate. For Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual subprojects classified as Category A and B, the PAO/MAO/PGENRO/MENRO shall fill up INFORM 1 and submit the same to the Regional Environmental Management Bureau (EMB) for ECC issuance. It is anticipated that most Year 1 subprojects will fall under Category D or projects that are not covered by the PEISS. In which case, subproject proponent may secure a CNC. 3 Indigenous Peoples Policy Framework 3.1 Rationale PRDP will likely cover areas where indigenous cultural communities or indigenous peoples (IP/ICC) are present. There is thus a need to involve IP/ICCs in the regional and provincial level planning as well as Integrated Environmental the preparation and and Social Safeguards Framework implementation 29 of subprojects and ground activities Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual in their localities. Their active involvement would ensure that their needs, interests and concerns are considered not only in the regional and provincial plans (i.e. AFMP and PCIP) but also in the design and final configuration of specific subprojects under I-BUILD and I-REAP components. In addition, there is a need to avoid, mitigate and/or compensate any adverse effects on their communities caused by activities supported by the project. For these reasons, the project adopts this Indigenous Peoples Policy Framework. 3.2 IP Policy Framework Objective This Framework complies with the Philippines Indigenous Peoples Rights Act (RA 8371) and the World Bank’s Policy on Indigenous Peoples (OP/BP 4.10). Its main objectives are to ensure that the interests, needs and concerns of IP/ICCs are taken into consideration in the formulation of regional and provincial plans and in the design and implementation of specific subprojects near or within their communities and/or territories. More specifically, this Framework will ensure that: a. IP/ICCs in the regions and provinces are able to meaningfully participate in the conduct of I-PLAN activities, including the preparation of the Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP); b. The selection, screening and preparation of subprojects under I-BUILD and I-REAP will be undertaken with the involvement and participation of the IP communities in the target areas in partnership with National Commission on Indigenous People (NCIP) and the Local Government Units and that: i. Whenever the proposed subproject site is located within or will directly impact on any declared or proposed IP Ancestral Domain, the requirements for government-sponsored development projects under IPRA as stipulated in the Free and Prior Informed Consent (FPIC) Guidelines (i.e. NCIP Admin Order No. 1 Series of 2006 or its successor issuances) are complied with; otherwise, ii. If the project site is situated outside any declared or proposed Ancestral Domain but nevertheless will directly affect and/or benefit any extant IP community or communities, a “free and prior informed consultation” is undertaken, resulting in “broad community support” for the subproject. 3.3 Indigenous Peoples Defined The World Bank defines “Indigenous People” as a distinct, vulnerable, social, and cultural group possession the following characteristics in varying degrees: • Self-identification as members of a distinct indigenous cultural group and recognition of this identity by others; Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 30 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual • Collective attachment to geographically distinct habitats or ancestral territories in the project area and to the natural resources in these habitats and territories; • Customary cultural, economic, social, or political institutions that are separate from those of the dominant society and culture; and • An indigenous language, often different from the official language of the country or region. Republic Act No. 8371, otherwise known as the Indigenous Peoples Rights Act of 1997 (IPRA), defines “Indigenous Peoples” as: A group of people or homogenous societies identified by self-ascription and ascription by others, who have continuously lived as organized community on communally bounded and defined territory, and who have, under claims of ownership since time immemorial, occupied, possessed and utilized such territories, sharing common bonds of language, customs, traditions, and other distinctive cultural traits, or who have, through resistance to political, social, and cultural inroads of colonization, non- indigenous religions and cultures, became historically differentiated from the majority of Filipinos. • Peoples who are regarded as indigenous on account of their descent from the populations which inhabited the country at the time of conquest or colonization or the establishment of present state boundaries, who retain some or all of their social, economic, cultural, and political institutions, but who may have been displaced from their traditional domains or who may have resettled outside their ancestral domain.

14,184,645 Note: ▪ Regional Estimated Population – computed based on the Population Growth Rate (2007) by Region reported by the National Statistics Office ▪ IP Ethnic Group Population by Province - computed using ratio and proportion method. 3.4 Social Assessment The result of social assessment undertaken at the beginning of Project preparation confirmed that the IPs are among the poorest in the provinces. They lack basic infrastructure and social services, making them the sector least benefited by government rural development Projects. Only a relatively small number of projects reach their communities; most are located in remote, inaccessible areas. Most IPs have the perception that they have the least access to agricultural services, education, health services and potable water supply, and they are gradually losing control over their ancestral land. Focus group discussions indicate that there is nothing in their culture or traditions which may affect their successful participation in any project that will benefit their communities. IP communities value consensus, engage in communal activities, sharing of resources and are generous (which, they say, lowlanders, take advantage of). Contrary to popular notion, IPs are currently moving slowly into crop production farming systems. The above experiences and marginalization of IPs are characteristic of most groups in Mindanao but can also describe IPs in Luzon and Visayas. In addition, out of focus group discussions, other issues emerge including dislocation caused by intrusion of different projects into their ancestral land, developmental aggression and conflicts of governance. Furthermore, focus group discussions in Visayas and Luzon indicate that in socio-political terms IPs are politically disadvantaged because they have little or no representation in local Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 42 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual governance, much less at the national level. There are no unified efforts among IP communities to address longstanding grievances and demands. There are even instances when the highest laws of the land run contrary to tribal laws. Economically, indigenous cultural communities are at a great disadvantage. Traditionally farmers, hunters and fishers, IPs have very limited or no access to information and knowledge on sustainable agricultural practices, inputs and technologies, as well as improved plant stock/seeds. Under these adverse circumstances, IPs usually resort to unsustainable and suboptimal farming practices, perpetuating an environmental vicious cycle. Slash-and-burn farming practices lead to depletion of the forest cover, pushing game animals further into the wild result to diminished catch for hunters. For fisherfolk, non-IP migrant fishers using destructive fishing method such as dynamite & cyanide fishing destroys habitats resulting in depleted fish stocks. The lack of or badly deteriorated access roads result to more costly farm- produce of IPs making them economically uncompetitive in the open/free market. These insights obtained from previous social assessments will be among the bases for designing specific assistance for the IPs as well to orientate and sensitize LGUs and other institutions working with IPs. 3.5 IP Development under PRDP The PRDP, primarily through Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD) and Enterprise Development (I-REAP), supports and complements many of the activities included in the Ancestral Domain Sustainable Development Protection Plan (ADSDPP). PRDP shall ensure that technical assistance is provided to enable the indigenous peoples to participate meaningfully in the planning process under the Local and National level Planning. This means, among others, deployment of competent and committed Project partners who can work with indigenous communities to ensure that the prioritized plans and projects of IPs as reflected in their ADSDPPs are supported by LGUs and integrated into barangay, municipal and provincial investment plans. 3.6 Requirements for Subprojects All subprojects shall undergo rapid social and environmental assessment as part of their Feasibility Studies. This should result in the preparation of an environmental and social management plan (refer to ESMP templates in Annex E). If the social assessment indicates the presence of Indigenous People Communities in the proposed project site, the Subproject ESMP should appropriately reflect that IP Policy is triggered. In order to be approved for funding, all Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD) and Enterprise Development (I-REAP) subprojects must comply with the following requirements: a. Subprojects that overlap or are located inside any declared or proposed IP Ancestral Domain or those that, while not located inside, will directly affect any declared or proposed IP Ancestral Domain. Subprojects under category will this Environmental Integrated comply and with the Social Safeguards requirements Framework 43 Indigenous Peoples Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Rights Act as stipulated in the Free and Prior Informed Consent (FPIC) Guidelines (i.e. NCIP Admin Order No. 1 Series of 2006), particularly Section 6B and Section 27 thereof. For subprojects that are being solicited by the IP community themselves or those that are already identified in their ADSDPPs, there would be no need to undergo the Free and Prior Informed Consent process. Instead, the NCIP will only need to validate the following: i. The IP/ICC, in fact, voluntarily solicited or initiated the plan, Project, project or activity to be undertaken; ii. The plan, Project, project or activity conforms with the community’s ADSDPP or in the absence of the ADSDPP, the concerned community considers the same to form part already of the ADSDPP that they will formulate in the future; iii. The IP/ICC knows the extent of the plan, Project, project or activity and its socio- cultural/ environmental impact to the community; iv. The concerned LGU and the IP/ICC community acknowledge their obligations; or v. The subproject activity is for the delivery of basic services or for the establishment of social enterprise or enterprise development involving community interest affecting land and resource use that would provide employment or generate income to improve the living condition and economic development of the concerned IP/ICC. For these subprojects, the following document should be submitted to the RPCO/PSO as part of the subproject proposal package: An NCIP validation report or an NCIP certification affirming that conditions (i) to (v) above have been met. For subprojects that were neither solicited by the IP/ICC nor identified in their ADSDPP but the IP/ICC are themselves the primary beneficiaries, the FPIC process will not be required. The concerned LGU only needs to formally coordinate with NCIP (or include the NCIP as co- implementer of the subproject) who will then validate that the subproject is acceptable to the intended IP/ICC beneficiaries, either because the same conform with the community’s ADSDPP or shall become part thereof in the future. For these subprojects the following document should be submitted to the RPCO/PSO as part of the subproject proposal package: A certification by NCIP affirming that the subproject is acceptable to the intended IP/ICC beneficiaries, either because the same conform with the community’s ADSDPP or shall become part thereof in the future have been met. However, if the concerned ICCs/IPs are not the primary beneficiaries of the subproject, compliance with the FPIC process will be required as described in Section 27 of the FPIC Guidelines. For these subprojects, the following documents will be required: Free and Prior Informed Consent Memorandum of Agreement with the IP community Certificate of Precondition issued by NCIP Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 44 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual b. Subprojects located outside any declared or proposed ancestral domains but are situated within or will affect any extant IP community or communities. Subprojects under this category are those subprojects that would affect IP communities that are outside of their ancestral domain but have retained their IPness as defined under OP4.10. Such subprojects are required to undergo a process o f “free and prior informed consultation” and to demonstrate that such consultation process has led to “broad IP community support” to the final subproject design/configuration. Free and Prior Informed Consultation. Free and prior informed consultation is consultation that occurs freely and voluntarily, without any external manipulation, interference, or coercion, for which the parties consulted have prior access to information on the intent and scope of the proposed project in a culturally appropriate manner, form, and language. Local patterns of social organization, religious beliefs, and resource use should be taken into account in the consultation/participation process as well as in the design of subprojects. Existing tribal councils recognized by the NCIP and the LGU shall be tapped as the liaison between the participating LGU and the IP/ICC community in all activities relating to PRDP. The following should be observed in the conduct of free and prior informed consultation: i. Prior to consultation, the LGU must ensure that IP members have access to information about the project in general and the subproject in particular. Information campaign shall be conducted in local language or in language that is widely understood by the IP community. This could be done through the local tribal council and in culturally appropriate and effective manner. Aside from providing information about the objectives and scope of the proposed subproject, the information campaign should inform the IP community of their rights to participate in changing the subproject design if it violates any rights or is contrary to the traditions and cultural practices of their community; their rights to compensation if any of their properties are affected; and, their rights to partake of the benefits resulting from the subproject. ii. The IP community should be given adequate lead time of at least one full week between the conduct of information campaign and the actual consultation. The consultation shall be conducted early in the subproject preparation and shall, if necessary or if required by the IPs, allow for an iterative process to arrive at consensus. iii. Direct dialogues and focused group discussions, if these are not in conflict with local customs and traditional ways should be the preferred consultation tool. Attendance by IP member to dialogues and meetings should however be strictly voluntary. The concerned RPCO shall ensure that the IPs are not coerced to attend meetings. The entire consultation process shall be undertaken and documented by the concerned LGUs. The following documents should be submitted by the LGU to the Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 45 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual PSO/RPCO as part of the subproject proposal package: Dated information campaign materials in local language or in language widely understood by the community; Dated attendance sheets of consultation dialogues or Photographs of actual consultation sessions undertaken; Dated minutes of meetings or matrix of clarifications, issues and concerns raised and how they were explained or addressed by the LGU. Broad Community Support. The subproject is deemed to have attained broad-based community support when the great majority of the members of the concerned IP community or communities express support or endorse and have no outstanding concerns about the subproject. The following needs to be submitted as part of the subproject proposal package to demonstrate broad community support: IP community endorsement or resolution of support signed by individual members of the IP community or communities; or, An endorsement signed by IP community leaders (such as the tribal council chairman or the tribal chieftain) with attestation of broad based member support by the NCIP. c. Indigenous Peoples Plan. i. An Indigenous Peoples Plan (refer to Annex H-1: Indigenous Peoples Plan (IPP) Template for Subprojects) should be prepared in cases where Indigenous Peoples/Indigenous Cultural Communities (IP/ICCs) (i.e. an extant, fully functioning IP/ICC community, either organized or only loosely associated but practicing common customs and traditions different from the mainstream society) are present within the Subproject’s influence area and when they are either: (a) not the proponent of the subproject; or, (b) only a minority of the proponents. ii. Where IP/ICCs are the majority of the proponents of the Subproject, there is no need to prepare and submit an IPP but a proof that the IP/ICCs are themselves the proponent of the Subprojects must be provided such as but not limited to: (a) Letter of solicitation/intent from the IP/ICCs to the Project Management; or (b) IP/ICC Ancestral Domain Sustainable Development and Protection Plan (ADSDPP) showing that the Subproject is included in the IP/ICC development plan; or (c) A Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) showing that the Subproject was proposed by the IP/ICC themselves during a planning which involve consultation with the IP/ICC. iii. ForIntegrated subprojects whoseand Environmental proposed sites overlap Social Safeguards with Framework 46 any IP Ancestral Domain Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual (AD), IPP based on Annex H-1 shall be prepared only if: (a) the Subproject is not included in (or not part of) the ADSDPP of the IP/ICC; and (b) the NCIP-administered FPIC/CP process (or requirements under the NCIP AO No. 3 series of 2012 otherwise known as “The Revised Guidelines on the Exercise of Free and Prior Informed Consent (FPIC) and Related Processes”) did not include an IP Development Plan, developed as a separate document or implied in the Memorandum of Agreement with the IP/ICC and the Project. iv. Hence, accomplishing the IPP based on Annex H-1 is required only in lieu of: (a) ADSDPP showing the Subproject is part of the IP/ICC plan for their AD; (b) Any IP Development Plan resulting from the FPIC/CP Process administered by NCIP under the Indigenous Peoples Rights Act (IPRA); (c) Memorandum of Agreement resulting from the NCIP-administered FPIC/CP Process under IPRA, between the Project and the IP/ICC indicating any IP development plan, rents and other benefits or conditionalities in their favor as conditions for issuing the FPIC; (d) A Provincial Commodity Investment Plan (PCIP) showing that the Subproject was proposed by the IP/ICC themselves during a planning which involve consultation with the IP/ICC; and, (e) Letter or Petition from IP/ICC to PRDP signed by majority of the members of the community, soliciting or proposing for the said Subproject; (f) Other convincing proofs that the majority of the proponents are members of the IP/ICC. It should be noted that World Bank requirement of “Free and Prior Informed Consultation” and “Broad Community Support” must also be fulfilled. Proofs that a Free and Prior Informed Consultations have been conducted (e.g. Dated Presentation Materials and Minutes of Meetings, Dated Photograph of the Consultation, etc.) must be submitted along with the IPP. The IPP when signed by the IP/ICC community representatives/leaders or in its absence, the documents enumerated in C-iv., would constitute sufficient proof of “broad community support” for the Subproject. 3.7 Damage to Cultural Properties or Resources The PRDP must ensure that none of its infrastructure or related projects will damage irreplaceable cultural property of the IP. Setting guidelines for all subprojects shall include strict avoidance of cultural resources particularly structures of cultural and/or historical significance and known archaeological sites. In case where infrastructure subprojects that already received broad IP community support or consent would pass through sites considered Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 47 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual as cultural properties of the Indigenous Peoples, PRDP must exert its best effort to relocate, realign or redesign the subprojects, so that these sites can be preserved and remain intact in situ. PRDP will not fund subprojects that would displace damage, render inaccessible and/or render inoperable any structures that are deemed to have high cultural and historical significance by either the IPs or the mainstream population. In case of chance finds or discovery of archaeological artefacts during construction, all activities in the affected sites must be suspended while PRDP management reports the finds to and coordinates with the National Museum or the proper government authority. Please refer to Annex H-2 Chance Archaeological/Paleontological Finds Procedure for Subprojects. 3.8 Land Acquisition If a member of the IP community will have either of his land, crops, homes, structures and/or other properties adversely affected by the proposed subproject, he/she must be informed of the his/her rights for just compensation from the LGU as well as his/her rights to partake of the benefits resulting from the subproject. The compensation for affected land, crops, homes and other assets of individual IP members will follow the Framework on Land Acquisition, Resettlement and Rehabilitation for Project Affected Persons (See Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Framework). 3.9 Institutional Capacity DA and LGU staff will be capacitated in order to deliver the required services and provide technical assistance to IP communities as needed. When necessary or required depending on the IP community capacities and the nature and complexities of intervention, technical assistance will be provided to IP communities in the planning of priorities and in designing and implementing subprojects. 3.10 Supervision, Monitoring and Evaluation The PPMIU shall provide direct supervision and monitoring of the implementation of and compliance with this Framework. As part of this responsibility the PPMIU shall submit monthly, quarterly and annual reports to the RPCO containing the following minimum information: Involvement of IPs in the preparation of PCIP (Number of IPs, segregated by gender involved/consulted in the preparation of PCIP); List of subprojects located within an IP community and status of compliance with the requirements; List of subprojects located within Ancestral Domain and status of compliance with the requirements; and, Status of the implementation of the agreed measures on IP issues, including if any, IP Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 48 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Plan implementation within the project duration, modification of subproject design, site location or alignment, compensation and/or benefits sharing plan. The report shall, together with the reports on LARRF and EMFG compliance, be incorporated into one Safeguards Compliance Report to be submitted by PPMIU to the RPCO. The RPCO shall review the reports and conduct random spot inspections at PPMIUs and/or subproject sites to validate and further evaluate compliance. It shall also consolidate all PPMIUs reports and its findings and submit the same to the PSO, which shall in turn consolidate all reports from various RPCOs and submit a copy to NPCO and to the World Bank. 3.11 Costs and Financing The costs of capacity building of NPCO, PSO, RPCO and PLGUs; the validation, processing and review of subprojects compliance to this Framework; and the monitoring and evaluation of the implementation of agreed measures resulting from the application of this Framework have been included in the costs of various components of PRDP. However, the cost to be incurred in complying with this Framework (e.g. ROW, Land Acquisition and Resettlement Cost) shall be borne by the subproject proponent. Cost mitigation measures that are part of the subproject design and Project of works should be funded as part of the subproject financing. 4 Land Acquisition Rehabilitation and Resettlement Policy Framework 4.1 Rationale The construction of rural infrastructure under Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD) and post- harvest and other facilities under Enterprise Development (I-REAP) are unlikely to cause Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 49 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual massive dislocation of homes or livelihood. However, rights of way for roads and irrigation canals as well as the sites of post-harvest and other facilities will need to be secured which may require homes and structures to be relocated to adjacent lots or rehabilitated in case of damage, or in some loss of crops. Loss of lands from roads and canal rights-of- way and sites of facilities may also be significant for some smallholder families while in NRM subprojects, families who are non-members or choose not to join the People’s Organization (PO) organized and/or supported by the project could lose access to their traditional fishing grounds, hillside farms and/or forestlands as POs/LGUs impose new policies and rules of access of these resources. To address these issues, the project hereby adopts this Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation and Resettlement Framework (LARRF) for use in the preparation of Infrastructure Development (I- BUILD) and Enterprise Development (I-REAP) subprojects. 4.2 Principles and Objectives The objectives of this Land Acquisition, Rehabilitation Resettlement Framework is to ensure that all involuntary losses (i.e. whether lands, structures, crops or other properties) of project- affected persons (PAPs) are properly and justly compensated and all those who are displaced (whether physically or economically) are resettled and/or provided with assistance to improve, or at least maintain, their pre-Project living standards and income earning capacity. This Framework adopts the principles outlined in the World Bank's Involuntary Resettlement Policy (OP/BP 4.12). In particular, the following principles shall apply: a. Displacement of people whether physical (i.e. relocation of homes to another area far away from the original abode) or economic (i.e. substantive loss of livelihood or of access to traditional sources of livelihood) will be avoided where feasible and acquisition of land and other assets will be minimized as much as possible. b. Where it is not feasible to avoid displacement , a resettlement plan shall be conceived and executed as sustainable development Projects, providing sufficient investment resources to enable the displaced persons to improve their incomes and living standards at least back to pre-displacement levels; c. Displaced persons will be consulted and will have opportunities to participate in planning and implementing resettlement plans; d. Any involuntary loss or involuntary incurrence of damage to assets (i.e. lands, homes, structures and crops) whether such loss would constitute displacement or not, shall be justly compensated through mutually agreed compensation scheme. No person (whether beneficiary of the subproject or not) shall be pressured to donate assets for the benefit of the subprojects; and, e. Persons who lost more than 20% of their productive assets shall be considered economically displaced and in addition to just compensation of the lost asset, shall Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 50 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual be provided with livelihood assistance. 4.3 Social Assessments and Social Management Plan All Infrastructure Development (I-BUILD) and Enterprise Development (I-REAP) subprojects shall undergo Social Assessments as part of their Feasibility Studies and Business Plans. The social assessment should be able to assess the extent of land acquisition and displacements, if any, due to the subproject. Land acquisition and resettlement issues, if any, should be reflected in the subproject’s ESMP (Please see ESMP templates in Annex E). For NRM subprojects, the social assessments should determine potential exclusion or involuntary restriction of access of some community members to traditional livelihood sources through the project. 4.4 Entitlement Policy Project affected persons (PAPs) will be entitled to the following types of compensation and rehabilitation measures: a. PAPs involuntarily losing residential land and structures i. The provision of replacement residential land (house site and garden) of equivalent size, satisfactory to the displaced person; and cash compensation reflecting full replacement cost of the structures, without depreciation; i. If the displaced person so wishes and the portion of the land to be lost represents 20% or less of the total area of the residential land area, and the remaining land is still a viable residential lot, cash compensation for the land and structure lost, at full replacement cost (market value), may be provided to the person in lieu of a replacement house and lot in a new site; ii. If after acquisition, the remaining residential land and/or structure is insufficient for the PAP to re-establish his home , then at the request of the displaced person the entire residential land and structure will be acquired at full replacement cost, without depreciation; and, iii. If the PAP is a tenant who has rented the displaced house for residential purposes, he/she will be provided with a cash grant of three months rental fee at the prevailing market rate in the area, and will be assisted in identifying alternative accommodation. b. PAPs involuntarily losing agricultural land and crops i. The general mechanism for compensation of lost agricultural land will be through provision of “land for land" arrangements of equal productive capacity, satisfactory to the displaced person. However, if the displaced person so wishes and the portion of the land to be lost represents 20% or less of the total area of the landholding, and the remaining land is still a viable economic holding, cash Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 51 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual compensation, at full replacement cost (market value), may be provided to the person. If the portion of the land to be lost is more than 20% of the total area of the landholding, and the remaining land is still viable, the displaced person shall be justly compensated of the lost asset and shall be provided with livelihood assistance; ii. If more than 20% of a villager's agricultural land is acquired and the remaining holding is not viable, then subject to PAPs agreement the Project will acquire the entire landholding and provide compensation of the acquired land at direct land replacement; iii. PAPs will be compensated for the loss of standing crops and fruit or industrial trees at market price; and iv. PAPs, whose land is temporarily taken by the works under the Project will be compensated for their loss of income, standing crops and for the cost of soil restoration and damaged infrastructure. c. PAPs involuntarily losing business The mechanism for compensating loss of business will be; (1) the provision of alternative business site of equal size and accessibility to customers, satisfactory to the displaced person; (2) cash compensation for lost business structure reflecting full replacement cost of the structures, without depreciation; and (3) cash compensation for the loss of income during the transition period. d. PAPs involuntarily losing means of livelihood or access to livelihood PAPs shall be provided with livelihood assistance and support within the community. They will also be provided compensation at full replacement cost, without depreciation for any other fixed assets affected in part or into by the project, such as tombs and water wells. In cases where community infrastructure such as schools, factories, water sources, roads, sewage systems or electrical supply is damaged, the Project will ensure that these would be restored or repaired as the case may be, at no cost to the community. 4.5 People's Participation and Consultation The project affected and displaced persons will participate throughout the various stages of the planning and implementation of the rehabilitation and resettlement activities. For these purposes and prior to any rehabilitation and resettlement activities, the project affected and displaced persons will be fully informed about the Project and about the provisions of this Policy at meetings held by the respective Project staff at provincial and municipal levels. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 52 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Each project affected and displaced household will be fully consulted about acceptable alternatives and options and informed by the relevant Project staff at provincial and municipal levels of their entitlements and rehabilitation options, where applicable. 4.6 Other Modes of Acquiring Land and Other Assets The Project may utilize other forms of acquiring land and other assets subject to the following guidance below. a. Donation The property owner may wilfully make a donation of his/her property or any part thereof that may be affected by the activities for the rural infrastructure or agricultural projects to the local government unit, provided that he/she has been informed of his entitlements in 4.4. The deed of donation should be duly notarized and must be annotated by the Registry of Deeds or by any authorized agency. The Provincial/Municipal LGU/proponent shall shoulder the cost of resurvey for the donated portion of land and the conduct of the survey for the adjustment of the land titles and real property tax due. To ensure that the donation is voluntary, the RPCO/PSO should validate with the property owner whether he/she is informed of his/her right to receive just compensation and the right to an appraisal along with the offer of just compensation. The deed of donation shall exhibit voluntary action by the property owner; otherwise this will not be accepted, particularly if it is a result of a pressured negotiation between the property owner and the LGU. To demonstrate the voluntary nature of land donation or forgoing compensation for assets, a PAP will fill out a quit clam/waiver. Waivers can be signed by a PAP who has Tax Declaration in his/her own name on the land plot. There should be broad community recognition that the PAP has long been a long-term resident/or in possession of the area. Waivers cannot be used for disputed land plots with multiple claimants or for communal land where Indigenous Peoples (IPs) are present. The waiver cannot be used to allow use of land in ways that could prejudice the right to return by internally placed persons. As ancestral domains of IPs belong to the community, waivers do not apply. For the use of any communal lands and ancestral domains of IPs, the decision of land use will be made following the FPIC process and the Certificate Precondition issued by the NCIP. Waivers will only be used for activities that have reasonable flexibility in design and siting. PAPs should have an option to refuse to donate their land and are not pressured to donate land due to concerns of not being able to benefit from project activities. To ensure that PAPs are willingly foregoing their entitlements, the donation process will be carefully documented and minutes of consultations retained as part of project documents. b. Negotiated Settlements The displaced person may opt for any alternative compensation package which, through negotiation, he/she agreed with the project proponent, provided the total equivalent value of the package is not less than replacement cost of all the lost assets. The PAP may on his/her own waive any or all types of involuntary resettlement compensation mentioned in section Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 53 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual 4.4 and instead opt for an alternative compensation package which he/she negotiated with the project proponent; Provided that the total value of the compensation package is commensurate with the total assessed replacement cost of all the lost assets, lost livelihood and income opportunities; Provided further that he/she has been prior-informed of the abovementioned entitlements. c. Usufruct Properties may also be acquired through usufruct where property owner retains the ownership of the land while allowing the subproject proponent to use the land. The two parties will execute a usufruct agreement which covers the rights and responsibilities of the two parties including the duration of the usufruct which should not be shorter than the subproject life. d. Lease Agreement The subproject proponent may also acquire land and other assets through lease agreements with the rightful property owner. The proponent and the property owner will execute a lease contract that will cover the rights and responsibilities of the two parties including the duration of the lease which should not be shorter than the subproject life. Under this agreement, the landowners continue to retain legal ownership of the land parcel. 4.7 Inventory and Entitlement An inventory of the affected lands and improvements (fixed assets) thereof for each road, bridge, irrigation canal, water supply pipe alignment or segment of the subproject will be prepared by the Provincial/ Municipal Planning and Development Officer (P/MPDO) and other municipal agencies concerned with resettlement and assisted by the respective Provincial Project Management and Implementation Unit (PPMIU). This will be approved by the Regional Project Coordination Office (RPCO) and endorsed by the concerned Project Support Office (PSO) to the National Project Coordination Office (NPCO). The Inventory shall include the following information for each PAP’s household (see Annex G Form 1); a. Area of the land to be affected by the subproject, the land parcel to which the affected portion belong and their owners; b. The current occupant(s) of the affected land; c. The land use classification or type of land affected; d. The number, types and size of structures present on the land and their owners; e. The types, number/area of trees, crops present on the land and their owners; f. Persons other than owners or occupants whose livelihood will be adversely affected with the taking of the land; Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 54 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual g. Productive assets lost as a percentage of total productive assets; h. Temporary damage to productive assets. The entitlements of PAPs are calculated based on the above information (see Annex G Form 1). a. Valuation of Affected Lands and Other Assets 1. After the PAPs have been identified, the concerned LGU, with the assistance and/or guidance of the PRDP Social and Environmental Safeguards team (SES), shall determine the value of the affected lands, structures, and crops for each PAP using the replacement cost standard as follows: (a) for land, the prevailing market value of the property; (b) for structures, the estimated value of the materials based on current prices of the same and the amount of labor required to build the structure, without depreciation; (c) for crops, trees, and other plants, the current value of crops, trees, and other plants based on the schedule of prices maintained and updated by the Provincial / City / Municipal Agriculture Office and / or Assessor’s Office, whichever is applicable. If no available schedule in the municipal or city level, the concern LGU may adopt the schedule of the province through a Sanggunian Resolution. 2. The estimated value shall be presented to the PAP in a reasonable level of details or itemization. The SES shall develop, adopt, and continuously refine valuation sheets for affected lands, structures, and crops to be used by the proponent Local Government Units (LGUs) using as basis the provisions stated under RA 10752 on how to determine the appropriate price offer for the acquisition. 3. The valuation amount to be offered shall be the price at the time of taking of the property. 4. The Standard Market Determination should be determined through conducting at least two (2) of the following valuation processes: a. Provincial Committee Appraiser Assessment b. Latest transaction in the area c. Private appraiser (Bank) d. DAR valuation base on production of the land perpetuity Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 55 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Whichever is the higher value should prevail. In addition, valuation based on zonal value may be conducted for comparison purposes. 5. The PAP shall be allowed to review the estimated values of the affected assets and shall be allowed to negotiate for any reasonable adjustments in the final amounts or the nature of compensation. 6. The SES shall validate that the compensation amount/package agreed with the PAP meets the “replacement cost” standard as per Paragraph 1 above. 7. The Proponent LGU shall shoulder cost for taxes and other associated fees such as documentary stamp tax, transfer tax, and registration fee, title annotation costs and others which are applicable to the manner the land/ROW was acquired (i.e. Deed of Donation or Deed of Sale). b. Expropriation 1. In case of refusal of the PAP to enter into a negotiated sale, or in case of failure by the PAP and the sub-project proponent to agree on the amount/package of compensation and after validation by the SES team that the compensation amount/package offered to the PAP by the sub-project proponent indeed meets the replacement cost standard as defined under paragraph 1 of Valuation of Affected Lands and Other Assets, the proponent LGU may proceed with the expropriation process in accordance with the prevailing law. 2. The concerned LGU shall comply with the requirements of the expropriation process. However, regardless of the final court determined compensation amount, the final compensation amount/package to be provided to the PAP shall not be less than the replacement cost value of the expropriated land plus the replacement cost of structures (without depreciation), crops and other land improvements therein, whenever applicable. Expropriation shall not disqualify the PAP from receiving assistance or other benefits from the project. 3. The LGU shall comply with the required deposit to the court of the legally prescribed assessed value of the asset subject to expropriation. However, in case such deposit required by the law is less than the replacement cost of the asset being expropriated, the LGU shall deposit the remaining balance into a separate escrow/trust/consignment account or other arrangement acceptable to the LGU prior to the start of construction. It should be clear that said escrow/trust/consignment account is intended for the PAPs compensation. The PAP will be informed of the valuation process for his affected property and the escrow/trust account intended for him/her. 4. The SES team shall validate compliance by the LGU to the above requirements through its usual monitoring activities and document its findings in monitoring reports. As soon as compliance with the above has been ascertained, a short summary report will be prepared and included as part of project records. The team is encouraged to continue monitoring the expropriation case until completion. c. Appropriations Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 56 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Land/RROW acquisition, should be the responsibility of and should be handled by the Proponent LGU. However, in the case where the proponent LGU is the province, it may make an arrangement with the municipalities and cities to do the land acquisition/expropriation. As such, concerned LGUs shall provide adequate appropriations to acquire the required right-of-way, site or location of the subproject in advance of the project implementation. These appropriations shall include the funds needed to cover the expenses for activities directly related to land/right-of-way acquisition for the subprojects. Expenses related to land/right-of-way acquisition have been enumerated in RA 10752 which can be used by LGUs as basis (i.e. Cost of parcellary surveys and appraisal of properties affected by the projects, compensation, cost of development and implementation of resettlement projects). 4.8 Resettlement Action Plan and Survey In cases where the potential adverse impact of a subproject on displaced persons is major (i.e., 200 people or more are displaced), a full resettlement action plan for each road or segment of road or irrigation system or any subproject will be prepared by the P/MPDO and assisted by the PPMIU in accordance with the provisions of this Resettlement Policy5. In cases of displacement of less than 200 people, an abbreviated resettlement action plan should be prepared. The full or abbreviated resettlement plan and survey will include among others: (a) a completed inventory (see Annex G Form 2); (b) a detailed socioeconomic survey of displaced persons describing their age, sex, ethnicity, education, main occupation, sources of income, and total household income per year (see Annex G Form 1); (c) detailed compensation and entitlement calculations for each affected household, where applicable; (d) location, area and category of the replacement residential and agricultural land to be provided, if that be the case; (e) a time-bound action plan for implementation; (f) a detailed budget and source of funding for the various compensation measures; and (g) arrangements for external monitoring and evaluation. Annex G-3 provides an outline of information required by a full resettlement plan; Annex G-4 shows a sample checklist of land acquisition activities under PRDP. The approved Resettlement Plan should be disclosed in the PRDP website. 4.9 Implementation Schedule A detailed implementation schedule of the various activities to be undertaken will be included in each inventory and resettlement action plan. Payment of compensation and provision of other entitlements (in cash or in-kind) shall be 5Impacts are considered minor if the affected people are not physically displaced and less than 10% of their productive assets are lost. If the reverse were to occur, the impacts will be considered major Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 57 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual satisfactorily completed for each subproject prior to the World Bank giving “no objection” for award of contract for civil works. The same time requirement would apply if displaced persons voluntarily contribute any part of their land and/or assets for the subproject. That is all deeds of donations and other relevant legal documents for each subproject shall be satisfactorily completed prior to the World Bank giving “no objection” for award of contract for civil works. 4.10 Supervision, Monitoring and Evaluation Implementation of the inventories and resettlement plans will be regularly supervised and monitored by the respective PPMIU in coordination with the respective P/MPDO. The findings will be recorded in quarterly reports to be submitted to the DA RPCO and PSO. Internal monitoring and supervision by PPMIU and P/MPDO will: a. Verify that the baseline information of all displaced persons has been carried out and that the valuation of assets lost or damaged, the provision of compensation and other entitlements, and relocation has been carried out in accordance with the provisions of this Resettlement Policy, the respective inventory and resettlement plan. b. Oversee that the inventory and resettlement plan is implemented as designed and approved. c. Verify that funds for implementing the inventory and resettlement plan will be provided by the MLGU and/or PLGU to the Barangay Committee in a timely manner and in amounts sufficient for their purposes, and that the Barangay Committee in accordance with the provisions of the respective inventory and resettlement uses of such funds plan. d. Record all grievances and their resolution and ensure that complaints are dealt with in timely manner. An external agency or agencies will be retained by DA PSO, as and when needed, to periodically carry out independent monitoring and evaluation of the implementation of the inventories and resettlement plans. The external agencies can be from academic or research institutions, non- governmental organizations (NGO) or independent consulting firms, all with qualified and experienced staff and terms of reference acceptable to the World Bank. In addition to verifying the information submitted in the internal supervision and monitoring reports of the PPMIU, the external monitoring agency will visit a sample of 20% of displaced persons households in each Province prior to approval of civil works and/or other occasions as deemed necessary by the PSO. The external monitor will: a. Determine whether the procedures for displaced persons participation, relocation and delivery of compensation and other entitlements has been done in accordance with this Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 58 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Resettlement Policy and the respective inventories and resettlement plans. b. Assess if the Resettlement Policy's objective of restoration of living standards and income levels of displaced persons have been met. c. Gather qualitative indications of the social and economic impact of Project implementation on the displaced persons. d. Suggest modification in the implementation procedures of the inventories and resettlement plans, as the case may be, to achieve the principles and objectives of this Resettlement Policy. 4.11 Costs and Budget Each inventory and resettlement plan will include detailed cost of relocation, compensation and other entitlements, with a breakdown by agricultural land, residential land, business land, houses, business and other assets. The cost estimates will make adequate provision for contingencies. Sources of funding for the various inventories and resettlement activities will be shouldered by the concern Local Government Units. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 59 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual 5 Grievance Redress Mechanism Framework The Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM) is an integral project management element that intends to seek feedback from beneficiaries and resolve complaints on project activities and performance. The mechanism will ensure that (i) the public within the project influence are aware of their rights to access, and shall have access to, the mechanism free of administrative and legal charges; (ii) that these rights and interests are protected from poor project performance, especially of beneficiaries and/or affected persons; and (iii) concerns arising from project performance in all phases are addressed effectively. Each participating Local Government Unit (LGU) and Proponent Group (PG) for Enterprise Development Subprojects will be required to set up a Grievance Redress Mechanism that would conform to this Framework. The GRM to be established at the LGU will serve all Subprojects and related Project activities that are implemented or under the auspices of the LGU. 5.1 Access The National Project Coordination Office (NPCO), Project Support Offices (PSO), Regional Project Coordination Offices (RPCOs), and the relevant Local Government Units (LGUs) will make the public aware of the GRM through public awareness campaigns, training and capacity building in Project Implementation Support (I-SUPPORT). Any person who has feedback or complaints regarding the performance or activities of the project and its subprojects during pre-implementation, implementation and operation phases, shall have access to the GRM mechanism. Contact details in support of the mechanism will be publicly disclosed and posted in the offices of concerned communities and in strategic places of the project’s area of influence. These will also be incorporated in PRDP information materials, such as Project brochures, flyers and posters. 5.2 Grievance Point Person The PSOs, the RPCOs, PGs for Enterprise Development Subprojects and the LGU Governors/Mayor’s Offices will each nominate and train one of their officers to be a Grievance Point Person (GPP) for project-related issues. The GPPs will be responsible for the initial screening of feedbacks and complaints, as well as, the organization of preliminary meetings with concerned parties to establish the critical path to resolution. A registry of feedback or grievances received will be maintained by the GPPs for reporting to the NPCO and the World Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 60 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Bank, specifically for associated follow-up, resolution or non-resolution of issues. Feedback/grievance registries will be consolidated by the NPCO for discussions on how to further enhance PRDP systems based on the feedback and complaints. 5.3 Grievance Investigation and Resolution Process Individuals or group of individuals wishing to provide feedback and/or complain about the effects of PRDP activities on their property, production system, economic well-being, spiritual life, environmental quality, or any other assets of their lives shall make their complaint using the standard complaint form provided by the GPPs. The Grievance Investigation and Resolution process (see figure 5-1) is outlined below: a. Step 1: Filing of complaint, feedback or query A Query/Feedback/Complaint Form will be accomplished by the concerned individual or group of individuals or by the GPP if needed. Complainant may be, but not limited to, project beneficiaries, affected persons (APs)/ households (AHs) or concerned organizations. The Form shall be filed to the GPP of the relevant office/level (NPCO, PSOs, RPCOs, PGs and LGUs). All Query/Feedback/Complaint may be directed at any level - NPCO, PSOs, RPCOs, PGs, Tribal Chieftain and LGUs (PLGU/MLGU/CLGU/Barangay) - by means of various uptakes such as via call, text messaging, e-mail, PRDP GRM Web-based Registry (www.grm.daprdp.net/grm), PRDP Facebook page, PRDP Twitter account, letter, drop box, and personal appearance. At the barangay level, drop box and personal appearance are minimum uptakes. Additionally, complainants have the right to stay anonymous depending on the situation, provided that contact information is made available by the complainant for verification and communication purposes. b. Step 2: Recording of queries, feedbacks and complaints in the registry Registry of any query, feedback, or complaint will be recorded by the relevant office/level where the query/feedback/complaint was received/filed. However, if received at the Barangay/IP Community/PG level, it shall be endorsed to the implementing LGU (PLGU/MLGU/CLGU) for proper recording. Meanwhile the PRDP ESS Units (RPCO/PSO/NPCO) are tasked to register and update status of all queries, feedbacks and complaints into its GRM Web-based Registry. c. Step 3: Assessing validity of the query, feedback or complaint The validity of the query, feedback or complaint will be assessed by the GPP. If the query, feedback or complaint is not relevant to the project, conduct necessary intervention such as providing an explanation or education session to the complainant. When the complainant accepts explanation, he/she will need to sign the Resolution Form as indication on the acceptance of explanation. Since Query, Feedback, and Complaint may be directed at any level, the GPP shall also verify if the case is rightfully intended for their level. If assessed as not, the GPP who Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 61 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual received the case shall notify and endorse the grievance to the appropriate level for proper resolution. If indeed the query, feedback or complaint is project related, the GPP may proceed to the necessary next steps. d. Step 4: Organizing meetings/site inspection with the relevant parties/ agencies/contractors to discuss how to resolve the case If query, feedback or complaint is assessed as valid and project-related, within ten (10) working days from the date the complaint was received, the barangay/tribal chieftain/PG GPP shall organize meetings and/or site inspection visits together with the relevant parties/agencies/contractors to discuss/investigate the case. Based on the meetings/site inspection visits, the GPP shall come up with recommendations to resolve the case and present this to the Barangay Council. If the relevant Barangay/Tribal Council/PG finds such mitigation measures acceptable, the Barangay GPP will offer this to the aggrieved party and seek his/her consent to implement such mitigation measure. All meetings should be recorded and copies of the minutes of meetings will be provided to the complainant. e. Step 5: Agreeing on a resolution If aggrieved party agrees with mitigation measure/resolution, the concerned office/level (i.e. Barangay/Tribal Council/Proponent Group) shall implement the agreed resolution. The Resolution Form shall be signed by the complainant, the relevant office/level (i.e. Barangay) with copies to be sent to the concerned PLGU and RPCO. Confirmation that the case has been resolved from anonymous complainant(s) and those who wouldn’t be able to personally sign the resolution form due to security reasons will be communicated through their provided contact information and will be asked to confirm agreement on the resolution via text message or email. f. Step 6: If no amicable resolution is reached, conduct another resolution procedure or escalate grievance to a higher level, until case is resolved. If no response is received or no action taken by the office or level to which the complainant filed the grievance within 15 working days after the registration of the complaint, the complainant may appeal/escalate the grievance to the higher office/level for appropriate action. For example, if no understanding or amicable solution is reached, or if no response is received from the relevant Barangay within fifteen (15) days after the registration of Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 62 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual complaint, the complainant can appeal to the relevant MLGU/CLGU. The concerned MLGU/CLGU will organize meetings within ten (10) working days with their grievance advisory team and relevant agencies/contractors to discuss how to resolve the matter and recommend this to their respective MLGU/CLGU–LCE. If the relevant MLGU/CLGU–LCE finds such mitigation measures acceptable, the GPP will offer this to the aggrieved party and seek his/her consent to implement such mitigation measure. If aggrieved party agrees with mitigation measure, MLGU/CLGU will implement the resolution. The Resolution Form shall be signed by complainant, the relevant MLGU/CLGU with copies to be sent to the concerned RPCO. The following next steps illustrates the resolution process to be undertaken in case the grievance is not resolved at the Barangay/Tribal Council/PG and MLGU/CLGU level. g. Step 7: Escalating grievance to PLGU level If no understanding or amicable solution is reached, or if no response is received from the relevant MLGU/CLGU within fifteen (15) days after the registration of complaint, the complainant can appeal to the relevant PLGU or the PLGU can initiate action upon knowing that the grievance remains to be unresolved. The concerned PLGU will organize meetings within 10 working days with their grievance advisory team and relevant agencies/contractors to discuss how to resolve the matter and recommend this to their respective PLGU - LCE. If the relevant PLGU–LCE finds such mitigation measures (within 10 days) acceptable, the GPP will offer this to the aggrieved party and seek his/her consent to implement such mitigation measure. If aggrieved party agrees with mitigation measure, PLGU will implement it. The Resolution Form shall be signed by complainant/head of household, the relevant PLGU with copies to be sent to the concerned RPCO. h. Step 8: Escalating grievance to RPCO level If no understanding or amicable solution is reached, or if no response is received from the relevant PLGU Governor’s Office within fifteen (15) days after the registration of complaint, the complainant can appeal to the relevant RPCO GPP or the RPCO shall initiate action upon knowing that the grievance remains to be unresolved. The concerned RPCO will organize meetings with their grievance advisory team and relevant agencies/contractors to discuss how to resolve the matter and recommend this to their respective Grievance officer. The RPCO will decide and take mitigation measures within thirty (30) working days of receiving the appeal. If aggrieved party Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 63 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual agrees with mitigation measure, RPCO will implement it. When the complaint is resolved, the Resolution Form shall be signed by the complainant, the relevant LGU and the RPCO. i. Step 9: Escalating grievance to PSO level If no understanding or amicable solution is reached, or if no response is received from the relevant RPCO within fifteen (15) days after the registration of complaint, the complainant can appeal to the PSO GPP or the PSO shall initiate action upon knowing that the grievance remains to be unresolved.. The concerned PSO will organize meetings with their grievance advisory team and relevant agencies/contractors to discuss how to resolve the matter and recommend this to their respective Grievance officer. The PSO will decide and take mitigation measures within thirty (30) working days of receiving the appeal. If aggrieved party agrees with mitigation measure, PSO will implement it. When the complaint is resolved, the Resolution Form shall be signed by complainant, the relevant LGU, the RPCO and the PSO. j. Step 10: Escalating grievance to NPCO level If no understanding or amicable solution is reached, or if no response is received from the relevant PSO within fifteen (15) days after the registration of complaint, the complainant can appeal to the NPCO GPP or the NPCO shall initiate action upon knowing that the grievance remains to be unresolved. The NPCO will organize meetings with their grievance advisory team and relevant agencies/contractors to discuss how to resolve the matter and recommend this to their respective Grievance officer. The NPCO will decide and take mitigation measures within thirty (30) working days of receiving the appeal. If aggrieved party agrees with mitigation measure, NPCO will implement it. When the complaint is resolved, the Resolution Form shall be signed by complainant/ head of household, the relevant LGU, RPCO and PSO and the NPCO and uploaded in the PRDP GRM Web-based Registry along with other relevant documents. k. Step 11: Case resolved or closed or is outside jurisdiction of the Project GRM A case shall be registered as resolved if the Resolution Form or any other document of its equivalent has been secured from the complainant. If the complainant is still not satisfied with the decision of the NPCO, in the absence of any response within the stipulated time, the case shall be deemed closed. The complainant, as a last resort, may opt to submit his/her case to the court, in which decision is final.

On January 30, 2020, the Department of Health (DOH) reported the first case of COVID- 19 in the Philippines and on March 07, the first local transmission of COVID-19 was confirmed. Proclamation No. 922, s. 2020 declaring a "State of Public Health Emergency throughout the Philippines" was issued and signed on March 8, 2020. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020 since the virus had inflicted more than 150,000 people including 6,000 deaths all over the world at that time. Following the declaration of COVID-19 as a pandemic, President Rodrigo Duterte announced on March 12, 2020 the "community quarantine" in Metro Manila but on March 16, 2020 President Duterte declared a Luzon-wide "enhanced community quarantine" (ECQ) through Presidential Proclamation No. 929, s. 2020 “Declaring a State of calamity throughout the Philippines due to Corona Virus Disease 2019”. Pursuant to the above Presidential Declaration and the Inter-agency Task Force (IATF) for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases Omnibus Guidelines on the Implementation of the Community Quarantine in the Philippines, the PRDP prepared a set of guidelines and tools adhering to the Safeguards Policies of the World Bank as well as the new policy issuances, protocols and standards of the Philippine Government in ensuring safety and health of the public, communities, workers and personnel amidst COVID-19. 6.1 Modifications and Changes in the Safeguards processes in the time of COVID19 a) Major impact and challenges faced because of COVID-19 The community quarantine measures impost by the Provinces, Cities/Municipalities and the Barangay level posed several challenges to the various stages of Project Operations both for I-BUILD and I-REAP subprojects that included key Social and Environmental Safeguards activities and processes. There were four (4) major impact and challenges identified by the Project which are as follows: 1) Restrictions on mass gatherings that prohibited the conduct of public consultations; 2) Community Quarantine policies that restricted travel affecting mobility and movement of PGs, LGUs and PRDP SES staff in conducting SES activities; 3) Closed government offices and Public Notary Offices during the Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) affecting the issuances of permits/submission of documents relative to Safeguards requirements; 4) COVID-19 response measures of LGUs as main priority b) Modifications and Enhancements Adopted Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 68 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Given the presented impact and challenges faced because of COVID-19, the following are the modifications and enhancements adopted by the Project: 1) Follow Minimum Health Protocols and Standards set by the Department of Health (DOH) and travel guidelines of the government In general, the PRDP shall follow relevant COVID-19 travel guidelines of the Government of the Philippines. The Minimum Health Protocols and Standards set by the Department of Health shall be observed and followed in all SES activities. (i.e. regular handwashing, observing cough etiquette, wearing of face mask and face shield, taking of body temperature, regular disinfecting, reducing contact and physical distancing and ensuring one stays physically and mentally healthy). 2) Use of Blended Mechanisms in the conduct of consultations The Safeguards Unit recognizes that there is no better substitute to actual conduct of face-to-face consultations. But under the new normal, the Project came up with mechanisms of generating feedback and concerns of the community and the PAPs in addition to or that will complement the usual face-to-face consultation. The PRDP Consultation Guidelines amidst the COVID-19 Public Health Crisis was crafted to ensure the conduct of continuous meaningful consultations despite the community quarantine limitations. 3) Allowing some flexibility for the permits from other agencies and notarization of documents in the event that an ECQ will be declared once again in certain areas Documentary requirements prior NOL 1 issuance shall remain the same. However, in the event that a certain province or area may be declared under ECQ that will entail the closure of offices, the Project may allow some flexibility for the permits issued by other agencies including notarized copy of other documents to be submitted prior NOL 2 issuance provided that the permits have been applied for and the documents for notarization are all in order. 4) Adoption of the PRDP Supplemental COSH Guidelines The Social and Environmental Safeguards crafted a Supplemental COSH Guidelines amidst the COVID-19 Public health crisis. The pandemic crisis shall now be considered in the ESMP. The subproject COSH must have mitigation measures addressing the COVID-19 pandemic. 5) Accepting submission of electronic copies of SES documents Submission of documents via email and other social media platforms shall be accepted but hardcopies should still be officially endorsed to NPCO. 6) Use of virtual platforms Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 69 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual The Safeguards shall maximize the use of virtual platforms, if and when feasible, in the various activities such as training, consultations, subproject validation, subproject appraisal, joint technical reviews (JTRs), RPAB meetings, pre- construction conferences, joint inspections by the Joint Inspectorate Team (JIT). Capturing safeguards concerns through geotag photos and video-tag footages shall likewise be maximized in subproject validation and appraisal and in joint inspections. Information and Communication Technology (ICT) access and capacity of proponent LGUs, Contractors, PGs and communities shall be considered whenever virtual platforms are opted to ensure that nobody is placed at a disadvantage position. 7) Further strengthening the GRM levels in times of COVID-19 The PRDP Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM) is set-up at various levels (PGs, LGUs, RPCOs, PSOs and NPCO) which is now all the more important to ensure that handling of grievances are not impeded during the COVID-19 pandemic. The Project support the further strengthening of the established various GRM levels. 8) Utilizing the GeoSMS in support of contact tracing efforts The GeoSMS system established by the Project is useful in support of contact tracing efforts. The PRDP GeoSMS Application enables PRDP to track personnel whereabouts while on duty especially during site visits amid COVID-19 threat. c) Summary Chart Figure 6-1 is a summary presentation of the challenges faced that cuts across the various stages of Project Operations both for I-BUILD and I-REAP subprojects that included key Social and Environmental Safeguards activities and processes. To address the challenged there are eight (8) modifications and changes to ensure that compliance to safeguards remains satisfactory under the COVID-19 situation. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 70 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Figure 6–1: Summary Chart of challenges faced and modifications across various stages of Project Operations in the time of COVID-19 6.2 Consultation Guidelines amidst COVID-19 Public Health Crisis As stakeholder engagement is important and critical in all project implementation phases, the Project has crafted a separate Consultation Guideline amidst the COVID- 19 Public health crisis to ensure the continuous meaningful consultations despite the community quarantine limitations.

The purpose of filling-up the Social Inclusiveness Scoring Sheet is to determine the degree of social inclusiveness of the subproject proposal based on the seven (7) criteria as enumerated below. It is required that to qualify for funding, the Proponent Group (PG) must not have zero score on either Criterion#1, Criterion #4, or Criterion #6 and must have a total score of at least 25. 2. Upon scoring, if the PG obtained a low rating or zero score then the PG must look into these items and see what can be done to be able to meet/satisfy the criteria. 3. The Social Inclusiveness Scoring Sheet shall be accomplished by the LGU-ESS and validated by the RPCO-ESS during PG validation until the finalization of the Business Plan. This is to be done in close coordination with I-REAP. 4. Scoring Sheet shall be filled-up through interview with the lead PG and review of related documents (i.e. By Laws of the PG, Business Plan among others). In cases of numerous clusters, a sampling of the cluster POs or Associations may be interviewed as basis of the rating. 5.

Establish appropriate design standards. Technical considerations in the design of rural roads shall vary according to the terrain, prevailing weather, vehicle types and most importantly the anticipated volume of traffic that shall utilize the road. Site selection and design criteria shall also include economic justification, reliability (either all-weather or allow reasonable level of delays during rainy season), tolerable roughness and speed, access to higher-level networks, and access to local social and economic services. A typical cross-section of rural roads is shown below. A four meter carriage way is adapted for traffic volume of less than 200 ADT and a 5 meter carriage way for equal to 200 and above. Typical dimensions, depending on the agreed design standards appropriate for the locality are as follows: Formation width 9 to 10 meters Roadway 7 to 8 meters Carriageway 4 to 5 meters Shoulder 1.5 meters both sides Item 200 or 201 Minimum of 15 cm Camber 1.5% for PCCP and 3% for gravel shoulder Embankment elevation At least½ meter above flood level Minimum curve radius 30 meters Exemption in the attainment of the 9 – 10 meters formation width will be applied in mountainous terrain where the 1.5 meters shoulder from the back slope of the side – cut would be sacrificed to avoid massive excavation and reducing environmental damages. The cost of mitigating measures must render the subproject still economically viable. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 98 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual 2. Minimize earthworks. If the alignment lies on steep sidelong (steep slope) ground, the centerline has to be carefully located to minimize earthworks. However it should be located in favor of cut material, rather than fill, to reduce the risk of the fill material sliding down the slope. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 99 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual 3. Pay particular attention to drainage. The removal of surface water is crucial for the success of rural roads, since at this traffic level the weather causes more damage than does the traffic. This means that a good camber of 1.5 % for PCCP and 3% for gravel shoulder, adequate side drains, and carefully designed cross drainage structures are required. Where side ditches are provided, they must be equipped with scour checks if the gradientexceeds4% and mitre drains (or turnouts) every 20meters to protect against erosion. A typical scour check is shown in the following figure: Scour checks are to be installed every 5m (slope>8%); 8m (8% > 6%); 15m (< 6%) Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 100 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Whenever possible mitre drains should be constructed at intervals of 20 meters along the road alignment. Identify mitre drain locations before ditching in order to spare blocks from being excavated. Where the gradient of the mitre drain is more than 4%, scour checks might be required. A typical mitre drain or turnout is shown in the following figure: Catch water drains are usually required in hilly or mountainous terrain where there is a lot of surface water. This needs to be collected and safely led away before it reaches the excavated slope on the hillside. Where catch water drains have to be located outside the road right of way, cooperation with the landowners has to be sought. A typical catch water drain is shown below: Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 101 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Relief culverts or cross drainage structures are placed perpendicular to the (horizontal) road alignment. Stream culverts must be set out in the direction causing the lowest possible disruption to the natural flow of the watercourse. Important Notes Working with Culverts: Particular attention must be given to location and levels of culverts to prevent erosion, siltation and long outfalls. In general culvert outfall drains should not exceed 20m length Some locations require the road alignment to be raised to accommodate the culvert. The maximum ramp gradient should be 5%. Culvert rings should be well seated on a shaped bed (check with template and boning rods), or concrete bedded. Overfill must be at least 0.60 m over the top of the culvert. Provision of haunching or full concrete surround is required if overfill is less than 2/3 barrel diameter Provision of cement stabilised bedding, haunching or full concrete surround is required in poor in situ soil. Dry stone headwalls may be adequate for intermittent flows. Masonry, concrete or brick aprons are always required. Masonry/concrete/brick headwalls and outlet apron cut-offs are required for permanent water courses or high flows. All aprons should have cut – off walls, toe and heel, on both inlet and outlet slides. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 102 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Drifts or spillways are very common structures especially in areas where rivers are seasonal. In case where a constant flow of water has to be accommodated, vented drifts are built. Short – span bridges can be built as box culverts or stone-arch culverts. Some principal features are provided in the following diagrams: Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 103 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual 4. Common structures for sloped areas and raised roads. Special attention must be paid to slope stability. Existing alignments are usually fairly stable, and problem areas are obvious. However, new alignments can precipitate slip failure on uphill cut-faces, and create severe erosion problems downstream of drainage outlets. Considerable care must be taken with stabilization measures. Retaining walls are required on both the valley and mountain side depending on the stability of the material, especially where vegetation cannot stabilize the slopes. Retaining walls should be constructed using dry masonry for heights up to 4 meters and gabion walls for heights above 4 meters or where there is increased earth pressure. Cement-bound masonry should only be used where absolutely necessary. A typical design of dry masonry wall is shown below: Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 104 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Bio-engineering approaches, utilizing appropriate plants (e.g.vetiver grass) to solve structural and environmental problems, have proven very cost-effective in many areas. These sustainable methods are both labor-intensive and replicable for rural areas.

For an irrigation subproject with a service area of more than 300 but less than 1,000 hectares, an initial Environmental Examination (IEE) Checklist should be submitted prior to securing an Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) from the DENR. For a subproject with service area greater than or equal to 1,000 hectares, an IEE Report is needed prior to securing an Environmental Compliance Certificate (ECC) from the DENR. A sub project with a service of area greater than 1,000 hectares should submit a municipal watershed management plan in addition to an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) to be submitted to the DENR-EMB. Site selection, Planning and Design Base the irrigation system design and capacity on adequate historical and updated information to correctly estimate the water requirement and the range of discharge or flow of the surface water source in varying seasons. Upstream of a dam under construction for CIP in Albay (ARCDP2) • Integrate in the determination of water flows to be diverted downstream the river water requirements • Conduct water sampling and testing to assess water quality to determine if water is suited for irrigation and to establish baseline so that any future degradation and Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 116 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual environmental / public health threats can be detected. • Provide slope protection through bank compaction, rip-rapping on critical sections, or vegetative stabilization construction. • Designate a Spoils Storage Area, with top soil set aside for later use and allow maximum re-use of spoils. • Provision of adequate drainage system and proper grading of canals so that IS structure will not be prone to flooding & consequent erosion.

Decide on the level of service to be provided–how, where, and in what quantities water will be delivered to users. System design options are: a. Single Point systems (Level1), which usually consist of dug wells or small - diameter drilled wells from which water is drawn using a hand- pump. b. Stand pipes or Communal Faucets (Level II): piped distribution systems which feed a limited number of public or communal taps, each of which serves all households, and other users, in the vicinity. c. Household Connection (Level III): piped systems which deliver water to taps in individual household compounds or homes. Definition and Features of Water Supply Systems Particulars Level I Level II 1.

Consumption At least 20 lcpd At least 60 lcpd 2. Explore three (3) potential categories of sources of water: a. Groundwater –occurs under most of the world’s land surface, but there are great variations in the depths at which it is found, its mineral quality, the quantities present and the rates of infiltration (thus yield potential) and the nature of the ground above it (thus accessibility). In hilly areas it emerges from the ground in places as natural springs, otherwise wells have to be constructed and pumps or other lift mechanisms installed. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 124 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual FACTORS TO CONIDER FOR SITTING WELLS Location: Locate the well at the highest point on the property. Avoid positioning down slope from potential sources of contamination including surface water flows and flooding conditions. Locate the well in a site easily accessible for maintenance. Define a sanitary protective area around the wellhead that is kept in its natural state. Potential Contamination: Yield and quality of water supply will depend on soil type (which determines filtering capacity and transmissivity). Course gravel, limestone, and disintegrated rock can allow contaminants to travel quickly with little opportunity for natural purification. Distance to nearest pointy of potential contamination is site and aquifer specific. The following minimum distances from potential sources of contamination are best practice for sites with sand – like filtering capabilities: o 150 ft (45.7 m) from a preparation area or storage area of spray materials, commercial fertilizers, or chemicals that may cause contamination of the soil or groundwater. o 100 ft. (30.5 m) from a below – grade manure storage area. o 75 ft. (22.9 m) from cesspools, leaching pits, and dry wells. o 50 ft. (15.2 m) from buried sewer, septic tank, subsurface disposal field, grave animal or poultry yard or building, privy, or other contaminants that may drain into the soil. o The distance between a septic tank leach field and a down-gradient well should be greater than 100 ft. (30.5 m) if the soil is coarser than the fine sand the groundwater flow rate is greater than 0.03 ft/day (0.01 n/day). Source: Driscoll, Groundwater and Wells, second Edition The following are methods of developing sources of groundwater: Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 125 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Hand-dug Well Historically, dug wells were excavated by hand shovel to below the water-table until Incoming water exceeded the digger's bailing rate. The well was lined with stones, brick, tile or other material to prevent collapse, and was covered with a cap of wood, stone, or concrete. Modern large - diameter dug wells are dug or bored by power equipment and typically are lined with concrete tile. Because of the type of construction large-diameter bored wells can go deeper beneath the water-table than can hand-dug wells. Driven Well Driven-point (sand point) wells are constructed by driving assembled lengths of pipe into the ground with percussion equipment or by hand. These pipes are normally 2 inches or less in diameter and less than 50 feet deep. These can only be installed in areas having relatively looses oils, such as sand or gravel. Usually a screened well point is attached to the bottom of the casing before driving. Driven wells are relatively simple and economical to construct. This type of well poses a moderate to high risk and is easily contaminated from nearby surface sources. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 126 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Jetted Well This method of well drilling involves the use of a high velocity stream or jet of fluid to cut a hole in the ground and transport the loosened material up and out of the hole. The equipment used maybe the same equipment that is used for rotary drilling minus the bit. Protective casing should be installed to at least 25 feet and the well should be grouted to a minimum depthof10feet to protect the well against contamination from the surface. Jetted wells can only be installed in unconsolidated formations and are best suited for bore holes 4 inches in diameter. Bored Well An earth auger rotated, by hand or power, bores the hole and carries the earth to the surface. Casing is usually steel, concrete or plastic pipe. Borehole diameter ranges from 50 to 200 mm. Bored wells can be up to 15meters deep. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 127 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Drilled or Cable Tool Well Most modern wells are drilled, which requires a fairly complicated and expensive drill rig. Drill rigs are often mounted on big trucks. They use rotary drill bits that chew away at the rock, percussion bits that smash the rock, or, if the ground is soft, large auger bits. Drilled wells can be drilled more than 1,000 feet deep. Often a pump is placed at the bottom to push water up to the surface.

Dry latrines present the smallest risk of groundwater contamination. Water Table – a latrine pit must be above the water table during all seasons. 1.5 m below the surface is the minimum depth necessary to ensure the pit contents remain dry. The greater the distance between the base of the pit and the water table, the more time is required for pathogens to seep from the pit into the groundwater, thus allowing more pathogens to die – off naturally. Soil Type – Clay, Silt and Fine sand soil types all have grain sizes small enough to act as natural filters for microbial contaminants (<0.02mm). Certain Clay soils can also absorb viruses. Distance to nearest water source – the risk of contamination of a surface or groundwater source by a latrine depends on the distance to the source, the direction and velocity of the flow of water in the soil (hydraulic gradient), and the soil/rock permeability. 30m is considered the minimum separation for most soil type. Balancing these factors to determine the best combination of siting and sanitation technology should involve input from engineers and/or hydrologist. For more information see S.

Damage to standing crops, houses and/or properties – Will the construction of the project result to any crop and/or properties? Describe and try to quantify the potential damage. For the trees and crops to be damaged discuss if it will be compensated or not. Similarly, discuss if the trees to be cut will be turned into lumber and turned over to the PAP. For structures to be affected discuss who will be responsible in demolition and reconstruction of structures, if any. Tabulate the damages to any crops, structures or trees. Note that (potential) damage to crops and/or properties/assets should be inventoried and suitable compensation schemes should be worked out through consultation with the owners of the crops and properties (e.g. through a MOA or the Entitlement Survey Form). Compensation of damages following the agreed schemes should be based on actual damage or loss. iv. Physical displacement of persons – Will the proposed subproject result in the relocation of houses?

B. Environmental Safeguard Aspects The Environmental Assessment Section of the FS should provide adequate information on the following: 1. Natural habitat –Describe the project site (i.e., the lands to be traversed by the proposed road, the actual site of the PWS or structure, etc.) in terms of land use, vegetation, wildlife, presence of water ecosystems, endangered and other important species. How are they going to be impacted by the project? Is the project site within an officially declared or proposed protected area of natural habitat? Note that: PRDP loan should not be used to fund subprojects involving civil works that encroach into Protected Areas of natural habitat such as areas declared as Natural Parks under NIPAS, expect for NRM subprojects that are allowed as per provisions of the NIPAS law of Buffer Zone, or Multiple Use Zone, and the law creating the Natural Park. 2. Physical Cultural Resources – Are there any structure, monuments or Physical Cultural Resources (as defined below) on site that will be affected by the subproject? Describe the cultural and historical significance of the structure/s, if any. Describe the impact of the project to the structure/s. Is the project site part of an important natural feature or landscape? How will the project change or impact the landscape? Is the project area a potential archaeological site? If there are no such structures or monuments or Physical Cultural Resources to be affected, the assessment should clearly say so. However, a discussion on the Procedure of Archaeological/Paleontological Chance Finds (Annex H-2) should be stated. Note that: The World Bank Policy on Physical Cultural Resources requires that physical cultural resources likely to be affected by the project should be identified and the project’s potential impacts on these resources be assessed as an integral part of the EA. Cultural resources are defined as movable or immovable objects, sites, structures, groups of structures, and natural features and landscapes that have archaeological, paleontological, historical, architectural, religious, aesthetic, or other cultural significance. When the project is likely to have adverse impacts on physical cultural resources, appropriate measures for avoiding or mitigating these impacts shall be identified in the EA. These measures may range from full site protection to selective mitigation, including salvage and documentation, in cases where a portion or all of the physical cultural resources may be lost. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 144 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual If the area is a potential archaeological site, the mitigation plan should include provisions for managing chance finds. For example: in case of archaeological finds during construction, civil works must be immediately suspended and the National Museum contacted. 3. Terrain, Soil Types and Rainfall – What is the topography of the proposed subproject site? What is the type of soil? Describe the soil in terms of looseness and erosion potential. What is the amount of rainfall in the area? Note for FMR: if all these factors are present (i.e. the terrain is hilly, the soil is generally loose, and rainfall in the area is generally heavy) such that the potential for sedimentation and erosion is high, corresponding fortifications/items in the design may be warranted (i.e., extra slope protection works, concrete pavement, and canal lining, etc.) as opposed to the standard subproject design. 4. Hazard/Risk Assessment– Describe the drainage situations, erosion, and flooding potential of the project site. How is it going to be impacted by the proposed subprojects? Discuss Hazard/Risk due to the horizontal and vertical alignment/sections of the proposed road and Occupational Safety and Health of the workers during construction.

Status of Environmental Clearances – Describe the environmental clearances issued by DENR (ECC/CNC); Tree Cutting Permits; List of Accredited Quarry Sources and Hauling of Quarry Materials; Batching Plant; Waste Disposal; Potability Test, Water Quality Test; National Water Regulatory Board (NWRB) Permit and other clearances C. Social and Environmental Impacts – Discuss in brief the major potential impacts of the subproject and corresponding mitigating measures on the following concerns: Batching plants, Quarry sites, and increase in the use of pesticides, disruption of traffic flow, labor influx and other details mentioned in the duly signed standalone ESMP. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 145 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Preparation of the Environmental and Social Management/Mitigation Plan (ESMP) based on the Assessments 1. The ESMP should include both environmental and social management measures and it should be based on the results of the Social and Environmental Assessments in the FS as well as technical information about the proposed subproject (i.e. the type, scale and extent of the subproject, the planned alignment of roads, the structures to be built, etc. or initial/draft engineering design if already available). This means that the impacts and the measures identified in the ESMP should be consistent with the findings of the Social and Environmental Assessments and with the subproject type, scale and design. 2. To facilitate the preparation of the ESMPs, templates have been prepared for the most common subprojects namely, Farm to Market Roads, Communal Irrigation and Potable Water Supply. 3. Note that measures identified in the ESMP should be reflected in the relevant subproject documents (i.e. the Contract, the DED and/or the POW). Measures that are part of the social safeguard aspect (e.g. acquisition of right-of-way, crop/property damage compensation, IP endorsements, etc.) should be reflected in the corresponding social safeguards documents (e.g. deed of donations, survey of entitlements, survey of project affected persons, resettlement plan, IP Plan, etc.) Measures that are the responsibility of the contractor should be included as part of the Contract. These include mandatory repair/restoration of any damage to existing road or other public structure due to heavy equipment traffic, or due to other construction activities during construction, properly handing of construction waste, provision of toilet facilities and safety measures during construction. Measures that have something to do with the subproject’s design should be reflected in the DED, while those that have something to do additional work should be reflected in the Project of Work. Measures that are applied as part of the maintenance and operation of the subproject should be indicated as such in the ESMP. These include measures that require introduction of new technologies in the influence areas by the DA. Otherwise, those ESMP measures that cannot be funded within the present subproject budget should automatically be part of the commitment of the LGU/community as part of future subproject enhancement.

Note that: PRDP loan should not be used to fund subprojects involving civil works that encroach into Protected Areas of natural habitat such as areas declared as Natural Parks under NIPAS, expect for NRM subprojects that are allowed as per provisions of the NIPAS law of Buffer Zone, or Multiple Use Zone, and the law creating the Natural Park. 2. Physical Cultural Resources - Are there any structures, monuments or Physical Cultural Resources (as defined below) on site that will be affected by the subproject? Describe the cultural and historical significance of the structure/s, if any. Describe the impact of the project to the structure/s. Is the project site part of an important natural feature or landscape? How will the project change or impact the landscape? Is the project area a potential archaeological site? If there are no such structures or monuments or Physical Cultural Resources to be affected, the assessment should clearly say so. Describe the procedure in case of Archaeological/Paleontological Chance Funds. Refer to Annex H-2 of IESSF. Note that: The World Bank Policy on Physical Cultural Resources requires that physical cultural resources likely to be affected by the project should be identified and the project’s potential impacts on these resources be assessed as an integral part of the EA. Cultural resources are defined as movable or immovable objects, sites, structures, groups of structures, and natural features and landscapes that have archaeological, paleontological, historical, architectural, religious, aesthetic, or other cultural significance. When the project is likely to have adverse impacts on physical cultural resources, appropriate measures for avoiding or mitigating these impacts shall be identified in the EA. These measures may range from full site protection to selective mitigation, including salvage and documentation, in cases where a portion or all of the physical cultural resources may be lost. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 149 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual If the area is a potential archaeological site, the mitigation plan should include provisions for managing chance finds. For example: in case of archaeological finds during construction, civil works must be immediately suspended and the National Museum contacted. 3. Terrain, Soil Types and Rainfall - What is the topography of the proposed subproject site for expansion of crop production and civil works? What is the type of soil? Describe the soil in terms of looseness and erosion potential. What is the amount of rainfall in the area? 4. Hazard/Risk Assessment - Describe drainage, erosion and flooding potential of the site for expansion of crop production and civil works. Describe the solid and liquid waste management. (During construction and operation of enterprise). Describe potential air contamination during operation and mitigation measure (During construction and operation of enterprise). Describe potential occupational safety issues during operation and appropriate mitigation measure (During construction and operation of enterprise) 5. Integrated Pest Management and DA-KASAKALIKASAN - Describe the Integrated Pest Management Project and Status of DA-KASAKALIKASAN Project of the proposed subproject. If no IPM or DA-KASAKALIKASAN in the proposed subproject, describe the present practice of Pest Management and how to transform such into the IPM Project. 6. Status of Environmental Clearances - Describe the status of the environmental clearances such as ECC/CNC, Tree permits and any necessary clearances. 7. Social and Environmental Impacts - Discuss in brief the major potential impacts of the subproject and corresponding mitigating measures on the concerns indicated in the duly signed standalone ESMP. Preparation of the Environmental and Social Management/Mitigation Plan (ESMP) based on the Assessments 1. The ESMP should include both environmental and social management measures and it should be based on the results of the Social and Environmental Assessments in the BP as well as technical information about the proposed subproject. This means that the impacts and the measures identified in the ESMP should be consistent with the findings of the Social and Environmental Assessments and with the subproject type, scale and design. 2. To facilitate the preparation of the ESMPs, templates have been prepared for the most common subprojects namely, for Animal Raising, Aquaculture, Crop Production Subprojects, Food Processing and Non-Food Processing Subprojects. 3. Note that measures identified in the ESMP should be reflected in the relevant subproject documents (i.e. the Contract, the DED and/or the POW). Measures that are part of the social safeguard aspect (e.g. acquisition of right-of-way, crop/property damage compensation, IP endorsements, etc.) should be reflected in the corresponding social safeguards documents (e.g. deed of donations, survey of entitlements, survey of project affected persons, resettlement plan, IP Plan, etc.) Measures that are the responsibility of the contractor should Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 150 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual be included as part of the Contract. These include mandatory repair/restoration of any damage to existing road or other public structure due to heavy equipment traffic, or due to other construction activities during construction, properly handing of construction waste, provision of toilet facilities and safety measures during construction. Measures that have something to do with the subproject’s design/operations should be reflected in the DED/Operations Manual, while those that have something to do additional work should be reflected in the Project of Work. Measures that are applied as part of the maintenance and operation of the subproject should be indicated as such in the ESMP. These include measures that require introduction of new technologies in the influence areas by the DA. Otherwise, those ESMP measures that cannot be funded within the present subproject budget should automatically be part of the commitment of the LGU/community as part of future subproject enhancement. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 151 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Annex D Department of Agriculture Philippine Rural Development Project GUIDANCE FOR REVIEWING THE SAFEGUARDS ASPECT OF PRDP SUBPROJECTS 1. In reviewing the subprojects, the reviewer should look at the entire subproject proposal package. The reviewer should use the form/template below. The reviewer should review the FS, the draft contract, the DED and POW along with all the safeguards documents, and determine if they are consistent and adequate. The reviewer should check the submitted documents and information against the IP Policy Framework, the LARRPF and the Environmental Management Framework. However, the reviewer may focus on the following critical issues: For any Subproject: 1) Project site does not encroach into protected areas or displace cultural heritage properties; 2) Presence of IP communities and if there are, whether the subprojects has complied with the requirements of the IP Policy Framework; 3) ROW acquisition – What is the status of ROW acquisition. Are the ROW documents presented sufficient to cover the land/row requirements of the subproject? 4) Displaced houses/structures and/or land, crop/property damage and how they were or planned to be compensated; If there are displaced homes or economically displaced households, whether a resettlement plan have been prepared following the LARRPF. 5) Consistency of the subprojects location, design and implementation plan with the Technical Environmental Guidelines (Annex B). For FMR,allof (1)– (5)aboveplusthefollowing: Adequacy of slope stabilization measures Adequacyofdrainageand/orpotentialflooding issues andhow theywereaddressed Potential road safety issues and how they were addressed and planned to be addressed For Communal Irrigation Subprojects, all of (1) to (5) above plus the following: Presence of schistosomiasis, malaria or mosquito breeding grounds and control measures applied or planned to be applied; Any dam should not be more than 10 meters in height and they should be designed by qualified engineers. The reviewer shall also check whether the Environmental and Social Assessment in the FS included any risk assessment of possible dam/embankment breaches or failure and whether a dam safety plan has been submitted. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 152 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual For Potable Water Supply Subprojects, all of (1)-(5) above plus the following: Presence of septic tanks or garbage disposal site within 50 meter radius Whether the source of water passed a potability test For NRM Subprojects, all of (1) to (5) above plus: Potential elite capture of the subproject. The reviewer shall look into the beneficiary organization whether they are really the ones traditionally occupying the areas where interventions/investment will be implemented. Potential exclusion of other members of the community to the beneficiary/partner organization’s membership or to the subproject benefits due to socio -economic class, ethnicity and gender affiliations Potential restriction of access to some members of the community to their traditional sources of livelihood such as fishing grounds, forest and kaingin farms.

Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 277 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual ANNEX E – 11 (NEW) Department of Agriculture Philippine Rural Development Project Guidelines in the Preparation of the Contractor’s ESMP The winning contractor will be required to prepare a Contractor’s ESMP, incorporating all the measures in the signed and approved Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP) for which the contractor is responsible for and standard construction industry practice on occupational health and safety. The LGU and PRDP SES shall discuss the Social Assessment and Environmental Assessment (SA/EA) including the approved ESMP and other related safeguards compliance of the subproject during the pre-procurement and pre-bidding conferences to provide awareness to the Contractor on their safeguards responsibilities during implementation. During the pre-construction conference, the winning contractor should submit a draft Contractor’s ESMP. The Contractor’s ESMP shall be subject to review and approval by the PSO/NPCO SES prior to issuance of any Notice to Proceed. The approved Contractor’s ESMP shall be the basis for daily and periodic compliance monitoring of contractor works by LGU and PRDP SES. The following are the suggested steps in formulating the Contactor’s ESMP: 1. LGU and Contractor to discuss and review all measures in SA/EA and approved ESMP of the subproject if the actions are indeed handed over to the appropriate responsible person. An agreement between the LGU and Contractor shall be made. E.g. a) Reconstruction of affected structures could either be through LGU or the Contractor depending on the agreement; b) Cut Trees will be returned by the Contractor to the Project Affected Persons instead of the LGU 2. After discussion and finalizing the approved ESMP, using the same document all measures having the contractor as a responsible person should be retained and form part as initial draft for Contractor’s ESMP. 3. Once all items have been retained, the contractor to review all mitigation measures and provide specific details. Note that in preparing the Contractor’s ESMP the winning contractor should have started their initial survey with the area in order to provide site specific measures and/or information. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 278 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Example: • If there will be reconstruction of affected structures will be made by the contractor, a list of PAPs, their location, and items to be reconstructed should be incorporated in the measure; • Provide how to properly handle waste oils and grease by discussing if there will be: 1) specific containers, 2) storage area; and 3) process for its disposal; • Provision of specific locations and area size of bunk houses, quarry sites, borrow pits, batching plants and disposal sites; • Total number of laborers and their wages; • Exact time of construction works; • Schedule of hauling of waste materials; • Total number of toilets to be set up and location. Likewise, source of water; • The specific speed limits and stations for detours; • Updating of final stations for the works based on the survey; • Exact role during the grievance redress mechanism as discussed with the LGU; • Details on the Occupational, Health and Safety Plan; • And other measures under the responsibility of the contractor that need to be provided with specific details. 4. Note that the PRDP have provided guidelines for Batching Plant, Quarry Site, Borrow Pit; and Waste Dumping Site, the winning contractor will have to answer the checklist and attach it in the ESMP. Likewise, specific details as to the location, area, lease information, capacity of the site, and certifications, if any, should be incorporated in the matrix of the Contractor’s ESMP under the assessment column. 5. For the Occupational Health and Safety Plan, the approved DOLE – OSH Plan should be attached in Contractor’s ESMP and be strictly followed by the contractor. In the matrix of the Contractor’s ESMP, contractor may provide salient points to the DOLE – OSH Plan or simply refer details to the attachment under the mitigation measure column. 6. Once all site specific details have been provided, the contractor to sign the document and submit to PRDP SES for review and approval. The approved Contractor’s ESMP along with other safeguards instruments such as the approved ESMP, GRM Posters, should be visible in the office and bunk houses of the contractor.

Background According to the World Health Organization (WHO), mass gathering is defined as “an event counts as “mass gatherings” if the number of people it brings together is so large that it has the potential to strain the planning and response resources of the health system in the community where it takes place. You need to consider the location and duration of the event as well as the number of participants”. Due to risks in COVID-19, the Department of Health (DOH) strongly discourages mass gatherings or events that draw huge number of attendees. Under the Resolution No. 38 of the Inter-agency Task Force (IATF) for the Management of Emerging Infectious diseases, community assembly is a form of mass gathering and its conduct depends on the following quarantine category of the area with adherence to the Minimum Health Protocols and Standards set by the Department of Health6: I. Enhanced Community Quarantine (ECQ) strongly prohibits mass gathering with exception to essential government services or authorized humanitarian activities; II. Modified Enhanced Community Quarantine (MECQ) allows maximum of 5 persons with exception to essential government services or authorized humanitarian activities; III. General Community Quarantine (GCQ) allows maximum of 10 persons with exception to essential government services or authorized humanitarian activities; and IV. Modified General Community Quarantine (MGCQ) allows gathering provided that participants shall be limited to 50% of the venue or seating capacity. II. Objectives of the Guidelines 6i.e. regular handwashing, observing cough etiquette, wearing of face masks and face shield, taking of body temperature, regular disinfecting, reducing contact and physical distancing and at the individual level ensuring one stays healthy physically and mentally Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 329 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual The community quarantine impost by the Government to ensure public health amidst the COVID-19 pandemic posed several challenges to the various steps and processes of PRDP’s implementation such as the conduct of meaningful consultations among our farmers/fisherfolk beneficiaries, project affected persons, proponent groups, and vulnerable/disadvantaged individuals. Similarly, even as government prepares to lift the “community quarantine” there is the realization that things will never be the same again. Hence, PRDP recognizes the need to prepare for a consultation guidelines during the pandemic to ensure the continuous meaningful stakeholders engagement despite the community quarantine limitations and to serve as reference into transitioning to the “new normal” for the implementation of PRDP subprojects amidst the COVID-19 Public health crisis. The PRDP Consultation Guidelines amidst the COVID-19 Public health crisis shall be consistent with the existing issuances in relation to the COVID-19 pandemic from the concerned National Government Agencies (i.e. IATF, DOH, DPWH, DTI, DOLE) and shall be in line with the existing PRDP Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework (IESSF). However, as we are continually learning from this unprecedented pandemic crisis, subproject proponents are reminded to regularly check recent issuances of the National government and consult with/seek further advice from the concerned PRDP offices (RPCO, PSO and NPCO) for any further developments that may arise. During the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, this guideline shall aim to ensure: a) continuous meaningful engagement among our farmers/fisherfolk beneficiaries, project affected persons, proponent groups, and disadvantaged/vulnerable individuals; b) disclosure of rights and relevant information to our farmers/fisherfolk, especially, to the project affected persons and disadvantaged/vulnerable individuals; and c) incorporation of concerns and feedback of the stakeholders in the project preparation and implementation. III. Consultation Guidelines Given the scenario, the COVID-19 pandemic posed challenges to the Project in conducting meaningful consultations. In this context the Project emphasizes that the stakeholder consultation and engagement activities remains to be a vital process and requirement and is all the more important to ensure mechanisms installed for consultations will provide opportunities to gather feedback from the community, especially from the disadvantaged/vulnerable individuals. The consultation processes shall be designed to fit the purpose of ensuring an effective and meaningful consultation to meet project and stakeholder needs. A. Considerations in deciding which modality of consultation to use or which combination of modalities to use: 1) Level of Health Risks – assess the level of health risk based on the WHO guidelines to ensure public health safety. WHO have issued a checklist in which the local public health authorities would know how to conduct. Please see this link: https://www.who.int/publications-detail/how-to-use-who- Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 330 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual risk-assessment-and-mitigation-checklist-for-mass-gatherings-in-the- context-of-covid-19. Local Government Units (LGUs) are also advised to utilize official and reliable data to appropriately assess the health risks in the area. 2) Type of concerns and issues to be tackled and/or which needs a decision from the community or household – assess the level of complexity of issues and concerns that which needs to be decided on as a community or by a household. For example, complex right of way or land acquisition issues may need a face-to-face negotiation. However if there is high health risks then conducting the consultation at a later time must be considered. 3) Capacity of the community and the households to meaningfully participate in consultation activities7 Capacity to engage. Use of technology is so far the top most modality in any transaction, communication or engagement process during this time of COVID-19 pandemic crisis. However, it is important to recognize that the challenges on the capacity of communities to engage in consultation aren’t only about access to technology. Even where digital tools can function, they likely will not enable communities in confinement (i.e. IP communities in far flung areas) to adequately prepare and participate. Remember to assess who has access to what information and how trusted they are, especially by the most vulnerable and marginalized people. LGUs must take this into consideration to choose the best combination of consultation modalities. Preferred communication channels. Preferences for channels and trusted sources will vary between individuals and groups, as will levels of access to radios, mobile phones, smartphones and the internet. For example, some women may not be able to access the household phone, and some elderly people will not have access to the internet or may be unsure how to use it. Consider the barriers to using each channel for different groups and use a mix of channels for best effect. Literacy and understanding. Information should be presented in the most accessible format and language possible, adapted to literacy levels within each group. It should also be adapted for those who are sight or hearing impaired. For example, consider using pictures and simulated dialogues, and radio. Reaching everyone. Engage all groups within a community, in environments where each would feel comfortable to speak up. 4) Inclusion of vulnerable groups/individuals - assess the profiles of the participants such as are there elderly persons, people with underlying health issues, people with HIV, persons with disabilities, women and children and other vulnerable households that would need special considerations to ensure they are informed and able to participate. 7Adapted from OXFAM’s Community Engagement During COVID-19: A guide for Community-facing Staff (April 2020) Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 331 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual B. Framework for determining consultation modalities during the COVID-19 public health crisis: Dominant use of remote consultation modalities Dominant use of remote with (i.e. IEC materials/letters, online face-to-face consultation but if High platforms, call, text, email, radio) really not feasible conduct the Health supplemented by face-to-face consultation when the health Risk (i.e. House-to-house if no access risk is lowered to technology) (High risk-Complex issue) (High risk-Simple issue) Combine use of remote Dominant use of face-to-face consultation modalities (i.e. IEC (House-to-house and Low materials/letters, online Community Assembly) Health platforms, call, text, email, radio) supplemented by remote Risk and consultation modalities face-to–face (House-to-house (i.e. IEC materials/letters, online and Community Assembly) platforms, call, text, email, radio) (Low risk-Simple issue) (Low risk-Complex issue) Simple issues Complex issues *In all quadrant combination the Minimum Health Protocols and Standards shall be followed C. Blended Consultation Mechanisms. As the usual public consultation through mass gathering may not be feasible and cannot be postponed to a later time depending on the community quarantine category of the subproject location, the Project encourages the following strategies in conducting consultations in all project phases amidst the COVID-19 pandemic that may be blended/combined, depending on the capacity of the proponent LGU and capacity of the community to be consulted. LGUs are reminded that in any consultation modality, preparatory work is always necessary. LGUs will need to prepare the people for the type of consultation modality to ensure a meaningful community engagement: a. Consultation through Online platforms. In lieu of the physical gathering, this may be conducted depending on the level and capacity of information and communications technology (ICT) of the stakeholders that needs to be consulted. Be reminded that all consultations should be documented. Minutes of the meeting, and photo showing the conducted online consultation as well as the list of participants shall be submitted. LGUs are reminded that online platforms may be ideal for high risk areas since online platforms minimize physical contact. However, as mentioned under considerations, virtual consultations may not be ideal to settle complex right of way or land acquisition issues. In such cases, consider other modes or if necessary Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 332 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual consider conducting the consultation when a meaningful engagement can be conducted and affected household or concerned group feel more confident in making a decision. The internet has the potential to allow easy exchanges between teams and communities, and between community members themselves. However many areas in the country still have low internet connectivity. LGUs are encouraged to consider supporting connectivity and increasing access for groups without while ensuring that the data rights of individuals are respected and protected. b. Provision of letters or IEC materials. Consultation through provision of letters or information materials such as flyers, brochures, comics etc. – whichever works for the community. Provide talking points on the important topics to be disclosed and distribute it to all the household concerns, while attaining the needed number of beneficiaries and affected persons: i. Consultation with project beneficiaries – majority or at least 50% of direct beneficiaries for I-BUILD subprojects prioritizing the farmer/fisherfolk beneficiaries near the road, key barangay leaders, farmer/fisherfolk group leaders, informal leaders in the community, and in consideration of the disadvantaged/vulnerable groups such as single parents, widow/widower, PWDs, Senior Citizen, and IP/ICCs; and 100% members of the proponent group in I-REAP subprojects; ii. Consultation with IP/ICCs, if done separately – as recommended by NCIP with attendance of key tribal leaders, elders, IP representatives and other important persons in community decision making (please also refer to section E. Key Principles in the conduct of consultation among Indigenous Peoples Communities); iii. Consultation with Project Affected Persons – 100% of all affected persons (Please note as discussed under considerations, LGU must assess level of complexity of issues and concerns such as land issues. Aside from provision of letters, there may be a need to combine with face-to-face negotiations) Note: It is recommended to assess the profile of the beneficiaries and affected persons in ensuring the appropriate type of information materials suitable and proportionate to them. Distribution may be done through physical delivery of hard copies or through electronically via social media and other online channels, whichever is applicable. Be reminded that physical distribution and collection of feedbacks should adhere to physical distancing, wearing of mask, and access to handwashing and disinfection, and other minimum COVID-19 protocols. Upon distribution and confirmation of receipt, allow seven (7) calendar days of feedbacking that could be lodged in the installed GRM to be collected through either physical house to house collection of letters or verbal feedback, text messaging, call, email, or through social media. Therefore, importance of feedback mechanism and ways on how to lodge it, should be indicated and Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 333 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual emphasized in the letters or any information materials to be distributed. For better capturing of their views/opinions/feedbacks, we may also design and attach a feedback form with a) open ended questions relevant to the disclosed information; and b) various mode of providing their feedbacks. All feedbacks captured should then be answered through another letter or any form of information materials that will be distributed again, regardless if the household has feedback or none. Then allow again, seven (7) calendar days of feedbacking through GRM. Once that there’s no feedback received, we could consider our consultation process through this option, officially done. As proof of conduct, the following consultation documents shall be submitted: i. Copy of letters or information materials distributed, including the response to the feedbacks or queries; ii. Receiving copy/records from all the households and geotagged photos as proof of the distribution of letters or information materials; iii. GRM Resolution Form or any record/certification from the household showing that feedback has been resolved. c. House to House consultation or dialogue. House to House consultation or dialogue may also be conducted with adherence to physical distancing, wearing of mask, and access to handwashing and disinfection, and other minimum COVID- 19 precautionary measures. Should there be instances that issues and concerns have not been resolved on the first visit, continuous consultation/ dialogue should be conducted until it has been resolved. Be reminded to attain the number of stakeholders that needs to be consulted and that all consultations should be well documented. Consolidated minutes of the meeting, attendance, and photos shall be submitted. d. Public consultations through community assembly. Public consultations through assemblies, when feasible, should adhere with the Omnibus guidelines on the implementation of community quarantine partnered with a health risk assessment based on the WHO guidelines to ensure public health safety. If community assembly is allowed based on the IATF community quarantine guidelines and WHO health risk assessment being low, the usual consultation practice may be conducted and blended/combined with other strategies of consultation as previously mentioned to attain the number of stakeholders to be consulted: i. Consultation with project beneficiaries – majority or at least 50% of direct beneficiaries for I-BUILD subprojects prioritizing the farmer/fisherfolk beneficiaries near the road, key barangay leaders, farmer/fisherfolk group leaders, informal leaders in the community, and in consideration of the disadvantaged/vulnerable groups such as single parents, widow/widower, PWDs, Senior Citizen, and IP/ICCs; and 100% members of the proponent group in I-REAP subprojects; Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 334 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual ii. Consultation with IP/ICCs, if done separately – as recommended by NCIP with attendance of key tribal leaders, elders, IP representatives and other important persons in community decision making iii. Consultation with Project Affected Persons – 100% of all affected persons A variation of the community assembly can be a barangay level clustering approach wherein the groups of persons who are needed to be consulted can be clustered into small groups accordingly. The facilitator of the consultation process would also come from the barangay in which case would avoid entry of non-residents in the area and thus lowering the risk of spreading the virus. Barangay officials or barangay representatives assigned to conduct the consultation process should undergo orientation by the Proponent LGU with the assistance of the RPCO SES staff to ensure that all necessary information and details are well covered. This approach is also in support of the Project’s principle of strengthening the community’s own processes and capabilities thereby nurturing their sense of ownership of the subproject. In the conduct of the consultation through community assembly, aside from documentation and submission of the minutes of the meeting, attendance, and photos to DA-PRDP, the following should be considered: 1) Adhere to the community quarantine guidelines in terms of number of allowed people in mass gathering (i.e. max of 5 for MECQ,, max of 10 for GCQ; and 50% of venue capacity for MGCQ); 2) Consider to only allow the participation of persons from 21 to 59 years of age, without pre-existing health conditions, such as, but not limited to, immunodeficiency, comorbidities, or other health risks; 3) Strategize on how to attain the number of needed beneficiaries and affected persons to be consulted given the limitation of allowed number of people in every assembly (i.e. one representative per household, conduct it per barangay, key representative from of different groups of stakeholders: barangay officials, Proponent group, beneficiaries, informal leaders in the community, IPs, women etc.); 4) Ensure effective facilitation of consultation process so as not to entail unnecessary prolonged time while ascertaining that all necessary topics are still covered (i.e. start on time, prepare an agenda, address concerns related to the subproject adequately). 5) Location should have the capacity to adhere with physical distancing of at least 1 meter radius among participants; 6) Adequate LGU personnel and logistics to ensure other minimum COVID- 19 precautionary measures (i.e. cleaning and disinfection of the area before and after meeting, thermal scan or temperature checking of Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 335 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual participants, ensuring participants are wearing face mask, provision of disinfectants, control movement of participants to ensure physical distancing and capacity to provide immediate healthcare response, etc.); 7) Public consultation has the consent of the participants, Barangay council, LGU Local Chief Executive, and if possible DILG with the conducted risk assessment as support. D. Inclusion of Disadvantaged/Vulnerable Individuals. In all of the consultation mechanisms, the proponent LGU should not neglect the engagement of the disadvantaged/vulnerable groups such as women, elderly, people with underlying health conditions, persons with disabilities (PWDs), and Indigenous Peoples/Indigenous Cultural Communities (IP/ICCs), as they often do not have a voice to express their concerns or understand the impacts of a project. Their particular individual and cultural sensitivities, and issues and concerns to the Project should be taken into account in order to ensure a full understanding of the project activities and benefits. LGUs need to assess best consultation modalities to reach them. Some other options are as follows: • LGUs must be open to make special arrangements. Some examples may be if a PWD is living alone without a mobile phone, LGU may explore involving a trusted neighbour or a community worker with access to a mobile phone to be able to reach the individual. • For far flung areas that may have no internet connectivity or even mobile phone signal, LGUs may consider using 2-way radios which is already a practice during times of disaster and calamities. • Work with existing community leadership and structures who knows best their community members. • LGUs are encouraged to think of other innovative ways bearing in mind the Project’s key principle of ensuring inclusion and participation of disadvantaged/vulnerable households or individuals. E. Key Principles in the conduct of consultation among Indigenous Peoples Communities8: • Accountability to conduct consultations. The Project continues to have the accountability to consult Indigenous Peoples most especially when a potential Indigenous Peoples rights may be adversely affected by the Project regardless of any challenges caused by COVID-19, including limitations around the parties' ability to physically meet. 8Main reference used is the Government Consultation Bulletin: Consulting during the COVID-19 Emergency of the British Columbia Province of Canada Ministry of Indigenous Relations and Reconciliation dated March 27, 2020 Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 336 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual • Commitment and willingness to adapt. LGUs must be committed to working together with Indigenous Peoples communities to ensure they have needed support to prepare and respond to consultation activities. Both the Project and proponents must adapt their consultation and engagement practices to meet the current challenges while still ensuring that Indigenous peoples are meaningfully consulted. LGUs shall tailor interactions/consultations with Indigenous Peoples community according to their capacity to engage during this time. It is important to recognize that the situation is fluid and will change over time. LGUs will need to continue to assess consultation activities with IP communities to ensure continuity of responsiveness to the current circumstances. • Cultural sensitivity. Sensitivity, compassion and cultural safety are key components for all communications with Indigenous Peoples community during this difficult time. As the Government’s immediate concern is to contain the COVID-19 pandemic, project proponents (LGUs) must also recognize that Indigenous Peoples communities are also prioritizing the health and safety of families and community members. Understanding this, their capacity to respond or participate in consultation processes may be limited. Community Elders are especially vulnerable to the effects of COVID 19 and communities will likely be placing special focus and resources on ensuring the health and safety of their elders. • Be mindful and respectful of IP communities pace of decision making o Where consultation is being carried out pursuant to an agreement (i.e. as part of the FPIC processes for the Certificate of Pre-condition) and the IP community has indicated it is unable to respond/participate within the timelines set out, consider extending the timelines when requested, and potentially defer decisions where appropriate. o Where significant concerns have been raised, or are anticipated to be raised, it may be necessary to wait until the Indigenous Peoples community is able to continue engaging in respect of those known concerns. The more serious the impact, and the more significant the decision is to Indigenous Peoples community, the more consideration should be given to allowing more time for consultation especially if as per assessment the concern would need the face-to-face consultation modality versus the remote consultation modality. o Where there is some urgency associated with a proposed activity, LGUs are urged to find ways to accommodate the capacity challenges in a considerate and sensitive approach. • Use of existing indigenous structures and mechanisms. The Project has always encouraged the use of structures and mechanisms already existing in the IP community, such as but not limited to, their Indigenous Knowledge Systems and Practices (IKSPs) and Indigenous Political Structure (IPS). Hence during this unprecedented time of facing the challenges of COVID-19 pandemic, this principle should be all the more respected and upheld. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 337 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual F. Strengthening of Grievance Redress Mechanism. For the new participating LGUs they are reminded to set-up their Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM) early on, especially through the hotline or intended mobile numbers for the mechanism, social media platforms and other means that are deemed accessible to the members of the community, considering an assessment of the ICT access among key stakeholder groups. Likewise, strengthening of the existing GRM mechanism set up under the Project is emphasized to the proponent LGUs with existing PRDP projects. The LGUs shall ensure access to the various modes of uptake considering the mobility restrictions because of the pandemic crisis: • Functional GRM hotline mobile and landline numbers • Social media platforms - LGUs can create a dedicated platform i.e. a feedback Facebook page for the particular subproject. These platforms can be avenues for the people to express concerns and provide feedback regarding the subproject. • For community members that might not have access to mobilephones or social media, the Project shall tap existing barangay mechanisms such as the regular roving of barangay officials/personnel to solicit feedback and concerns • For Indigenous Peoples communities, the Project shall also further strengthen the use of their existing mechanisms to gather feedback and complaints either through their Indigenous Peoples Mandatory Representative (IPMR), Council of Elders or any other accepted mechanisms established by the community. Note: All records of the grievances lodged should be submitted to DA-PRDP. Consequently, in easy facilitation and validation of ROW concerns relevant to grievances, the LGU with outmost confidentiality, may come up with a directory of PAPs to be submitted to the Project. Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 338 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Annex J Supplemental Guidelines on Community and Occupational Safety and Health (COSH) during Implementation of PRDP subprojects amidst the COVID-19 Public Health Crisis Department of Agriculture Philippine Rural Development Project National Project Coordination Office Supplemental Guidelines on Community and Occupational Safety and Health (COSH) during Implementation of PRDP subprojects amidst the COVID-19 Public Health Crisis 26 August 2020 I. Background The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) is an infectious disease caused by a new strain of coronavirus and was unknown before the outbreak began in Wuhan, China, in December 2019. On January 30, 2020, the Department of Health (DOH) reported the first case of COVID-19 in the Philippines and on March 07, the first local transmission of COVID-19 was confirmed. Proclamation No. 922, s. 2020 declaring a "State of Public Health Emergency throughout the Philippines" was issued and signed on March 8, 2020. The World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 a pandemic on March 11, 2020 since the virus had inflicted more than 150,000 people including 6,000 deaths all over the world. Following the declaration of COVID-19 as a pandemic, President Rodrigo Duterte announced on March 12, 2020 the "community quarantine" in Metro Manila but on March 16, 2020 President Duterte declared a Luzon-wide "enhanced community quarantine" (ECQ) through Presidential Proclamation No. 929, s. 2020 “Declaring a State of calamity throughout the Philippines due to Corona Virus Disease 2019”. Pursuant to the above Presidential Declaration and the Inter-agency Task Force (IATF) for the Management of Emerging Infectious Diseases Omnibus Guidelines on the Implementation of the Community Quarantine in the Philippines, this Supplemental Guidelines on Community and Occupational Safety and Health (COSH) is issued in addition to the existing COSH standards employed in the implementation of the Project adhering to the Safeguards Policies of the World Bank as well as the new policy issuances, protocols and standards of the Philippine Government in ensuring public safety and health amidst COVID-19. II. Objectives of the Guidelines This guideline shall facilitate the implementation of PRDP into transitioning to the “new normal” amidst the COVID-19 Public health crisis, supplemental to the existing COSH guidelines under the PRDP Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework (IESSF) of 25 October 2018 and the policy objectives of the RA 11058 An Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 339 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual Act Strengthening Compliance with Occupational Safety and Health Standards and providing penalties for violations thereof of August 17, 2018. It strengthens the protection of the rights of workers to a safe and healthy working environment as well as the protection of the community especially the vulnerable population, ensuring non-discrimination and social inclusion during the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. III. General Guidelines The Supplemental COSH Guidelines shall primarily adopt and harmonize the following issuances of the Philippine Government in the implementation of PRDP covering the Infrastructures and Enterprises subprojects and all other PRDP activities. 1. Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) Revised Construction Safety Guidelines for the Implementation Infrastructure Projects during COVID-19 Public health crisis, repealing Department Order No. 35 Series of 2020 issued per Department Order No. 39 Series of 2020; 2. Construction Guidelines for the Project Implementation during the period of Public Health Emergency issued by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) - Construction Industry Authority of the Philippines (CIAP) dated June 2020; 3. Joint Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) and Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) Interim Guidelines on Workplace Prevention and Control of COVID-19 issued April 30, 2020; 4. Department of Health (DOH) Interim Guidelines on the Return-to-Work issued per Memorandum No. 2020-0220 dated May 11, 2020; 5. Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) Amended Guide to Action Against the 2019 Novel Coronavirus Acute Respiratory Diseases issued per Memorandum Circular No. 2020-023 dated 06 February 2020; 6. Department of Agriculture (DA) Guidelines on Food Safety for the Philippine Agricultural and Fishery Sectors during COVID-19 Pandemic issued per Memorandum Circular No. 15 Series of 2020 dated May 13, 2020. Under the “new normal”, the following Minimum Health Protocols and Standards set by the Department of Health should be observed: 1. Proper wearing and removal of face masks, face shields and other PPE: a. Masks i. Medical grade masks are highly encouraged and should be properly disposed of after use. ii. Masks with vents should not be used. iii. Cloth masks, with additional filter such as tissue paper or similar material, may be used as long as they are clean and washed daily. The filter should be changed daily or after every sneezing or coughing episode, and should be properly disposed of after use. Hands should be washed/disinfected before replacing the filters. iv. Frequent mask handling and manipulation should be avoided. b. Face shields Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 340 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual i. Face shields shall cover the entire face (completely cover the sides and length of the face). If possible, face shields should extend to the ears and below the chin. ii. Visor-type face shields shall not be allowed. iii. Face shields and masks should always be worn together; 2. Reducing contact and physical distancing of at least one (1) meter, or two (2) meters when possible, shall be observed at all times. This must be practiced in combination with the wearing of masks and face shields; 3. Frequent handwashing with soap and water or the application of alcohol- based disinfectants which is also encouraged to be practiced at home; 4. Avoiding frequent contact with own eyes, nose, and mouth; 5. Prohibit spitting; 6. Observing cough etiquette; 7. Taking of body temperature; 8. Regular disinfection; 9. Non-sharing of personal belongings. These Minimum Health Protocols and Standards shall be applicable to all PRDP funded Infrastructure and Enterprise subprojects, and other relevant PRDP activities. Such activities are, but not limited to, consultations, trainings, technical coaching, meetings, technical reviews, procurement activities, validations, appraisal reviews, monitoring, supervision, grievance investigation & resolution, and all other activities that involve interaction. PRDP shall adopt mixed or blended methodologies in the conduct of such activities that conform to health and safety policies, protocols and procedures stipulated in the above-mentioned issuances and guidelines. As stakeholder engagement is important and critical in all project implementation phases, the Project has crafted a separate Consultation Guideline amidst the COVID- 19 Public health crisis to ensure the continuous meaningful consultations despite the community quarantine limitations. This will serve as reference into transitioning to the “new normal” for the implementation of PRDP subprojects (Annex I of the IESSF). As measures in the prevention and control of COVID-19 incur costs, the PRDP recommends to adhere with DOLE Labor Guidelines on the cost of COVID-19 prevention and control measures issued per Labor Advisory No. 18 series of 2020. As stipulated in Section 2 of the Labor Advisory, the costs associated to COVID-19 measures shall be charged to the employers and principals of the service contract and no direct or indirect costs shall be charged to the workers. Consequently, the Project issued a memorandum dated 14 August 2020 on the guidelines to address the additional costs to be incurred due to COVID-19 control and prevention measures: a. For under implementation or ongoing subprojects, as these costs have not been part of the PRDP subprojects’ feasibility study and business plan, the cost associated to the implementation of the required mitigation and control measures shall be shouldered by the: i. Proponent LGU, as principal of the service contract for I-BUILD Infrastructure subprojects through a variation order; ii. Enterprise Proponent Groups, as business owner and employer of the workers in I-REAP Enterprise subprojects. However, due to Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 341 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual funding limitations of the LGUs brought about by the pandemic and of the Proponent Groups, cost-sharing is advised; iii. LGUs may work out cost-sharing with the winning Contractors for the I-BUILD subprojects and with the Proponent Groups for the I- REAP subprojects to ensure that all subprojects are compliant to the health protocols and standards required for the resumption of operations of both the infrastructures and enterprise subprojects. b. For proposed subprojects, costs may be incorporated in the feasibility study/program of work and business plan, subject to the usual review and approval of the Project. As we are continually learning from this unprecedented pandemic crisis, subproject proponents are reminded to regularly check recent issuances of the National government (DOH, DPWH, DOLE, DTI, DILG, etc.) and consult with/seek further advice from the concerned PRDP offices (RPCO, PSO and NPCO) for any further developments that may arise. IV. Specific Guidelines for Construction of I–BUILD and I-REAP Infrastructure subprojects In ensuring community, occupational safety and health during construction amidst the COVID-19 Public health crisis, supplemental guidelines on a) Prior deployment for construction; and b) During construction were harmonized in reference with the PRDP Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework (IESSF) based on the following international and local guidelines: a. DPWH Department Order No. 39 Series of 2020 on Revised Construction Safety Guidelines for the Implementation Infrastructure Projects during COVID-19 Public health crisis, repealing Department Order No. 35 Series of 2020; b. Construction Guidelines for the Project Implementation during the period of Public Health Emergency issued by the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) - Construction Industry Authority of the Philippines (CIAP) dated June 2020; c. Joint DTI and DOLE Interim Guidelines on Workplace Prevention and Control of COVID-19 issued April 30, 2020; d. DOH Memorandum No. 2020-0220 dated May 11, 2020 on Interim Guidelines on the Return-to-Work; e.

Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 342 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual A. Prior deployment for construction A.1. The LGU, and Contractor/Sub–Contractor/Suppliers shall: a) Establish regular communication and coordination among each other for any relevant COVID-19 information; b) Strengthen the Grievance Redress Mechanism to ensure that there is an open, active, and easily accessible communication platform for workers to channel their questions and concerns especially regarding COVID-19; c) Incorporate in the Environmental and Social Management Plan (ESMP) the management’s commitment and responsibilities on the reduction and risk of exposure to the virus and transmission of COVID-19 at the workplace through prioritizing safety and health of workers and their surrounding communities; d) Assess and review occupational safety and health hazards of all construction works and develop strategic measures and possible changes in the construction methodologies (i.e. manpower and equipment, materials and delivery, etc.) on managing the potential risks and its impacts through incorporation of DOH minimum health protocols and standards, and other relevant guidelines. A.2. The LGU shall: a) Screen and issue construction quarantine pass (QP) to the individual qualified personnel of the contractors clearly stating the identification, designation, nature of work, validity and destination, if necessary; b) Advise the Barangay Council of the start/resumption of construction works with adherence to DOH and IATF guidelines; c) Facilitate the inclusion of necessary information on the impacts and mitigation measures of the construction in the IEC campaigns through Barangay Council. A.3. The Barangay Council through its Barangay Health Emergency Response Team (BHERT) shall: a) Include in the IEC campaign for the community the necessary information on the impacts and mitigation measures relevant to the construction; b) Inform the Contractor on the existing ordinances or plans of the Barangay on containment and control and prevention measures especially in terms of public health and sanitation through its waste management, cleaning and disinfection, isolation procedures, among others; Integrated Environmental and Social Safeguards Framework 343 Philippine Rural Development Project Operations Manual c) Inform the community on the start/resumption of the construction with special considerations on vulnerable groups such as women, children, elderly, Indigenous Peoples/Indigenous Cultural Communities (IP/ICCs), People with Disabilities (PWD), and immuno-compromised people through several mechanisms. Refer to Annex I of the IESSF A.4. The Contractor/Sub – Contractor/Suppliers shall: a) Not allow any person below twenty-one (21) years old, those who are sixty (60) years old and above, those with immune deficiencies, comorbidities, or other health risks, and pregnant women, including those who reside with the aforementioned, to be part of the workforce for construction projects except as may be allowed under the Revised Omnibus Guidelines issued by the IATF; b) Undergo its employees fourteen (14) days quarantine prior to deployment, especially for the migrant workers coming from another barangay/municipality: i. Returning workers without a negative PCR test that do not show any symptoms will be quarantined for 14 days within the jobsite and will be allowed to work under a zoned or grouped area; ii.
