Saravan 11 5kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province 1 Introduction 1.1 Background The Lao government has set the goal to expand domestic electrification to attain 90% target through out the country by the year 2020. The electricity development will form significant contribution in meeting the government's Poverty Reduction target and ridding itself off the "Least Developed Country" list by 2020. Currently Lao PDR has developed only less than 3.5 % of its Hydropower potential which estimated to be 18,000 MW, even with the completion of Nam Theun 2 in 2009, the total percentage power out will only be approximately 10%. However, such development has already been a major contributing factor to the country's economic output in export earnings for the last couple of decades. The Sexet 1- Saravan (Saravanh Province) 115 Kv Transmission line likes many projects throughout the country such as Ban Hat-Cambodia border (the extension of Pakxe - Ban Hat TL), Pakxan-Pakbor transmission line (currently being investigated and designed), Pakxe-BanHat transmission line (already completed), Ban Na-Attapeu transmission line (being completed), exemplifies the government's commitment in meeting its electrification development target, in particular in the Southern region. To realize the above objectives and commitment while at the same time ensuring that the environmental and socio economic conditions of the project area are protected, preserved and or improved, TEPCO was engaged by EdL to carry out the Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) study. This resettlement action plan (RAP) report, forms part of the IEE study, presents the RAP reflecting the above regulatory requirement for resettlement and compensation, in accordance with the local and international Socio and Environmental Protection Laws, Regulations and Guidelines. 1.2 Project Extent (a) The proposed 115kV transmission line starts from Xeset 1 power station to Ban Nadonkhouang sub-station has the total length of 25.15 km following on the east side of the National Road No. 20 for The alignment generally follows existing National Road No 20 (Thang Beng to Saravanh) for the first 15Km on the Eastern side of the road. It then crosses to the West of Road No 20 at Ban Na Xai Gnai, continues in the Northly direction to Ban Donkhouang subsation (west of Saravanh township). (b) The line overall does not pass through residential part of any village, therefore there are no residents to be resettled. The line passes mainly through rice paddy fields, degraded forest, due to subsequent slashed and burnt agricultural practice. Wildlife is almost nonexistent, due to the combination of lost habitat and indiscriminant hunting. Except for the cemeteries (recommended in the main report for rectification by slight shifting of Pis) no cultural and heritage site is affected. The line alignment was purposely selected so as to minimize impacts to the communities and or properties as much as possible; therefore, only very minimal impacts are anticipated. 1.3 Methodology for Field Survey and Data Collection (a) The field survey and data collection was carried out in every affected village along the transmission line from Xeset 1 Power station to Ban Donkhouang 1 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 11 5kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province Substation. The field survey team with a total member of six personnel was formed. The team was led by a unit leader (also a specialist), who together with the project team leader was in charge of all field survey activities - Village consultation, liaison with local authorities, interviews with villagers and head of affected villages, carrying out investigations and observation and general data collections etc., (b) Prior to the arrival of the field survey team, the local district authorities of the project areas were officially notified by EDL Vientiane head office. They were informed of the objectives, the timing of the field work activities to be conducted in the district. They were also informed about their roles and responsibilities in assisting the field survey activities of the survey team. In every affected village and prior to the households or the head of the village being interviewed, all the villagers were requested to assemble in a centrally located place in the village, mostly at the village temple, school or at the residence of the village head. (c) At the assembly, the villagers were officially informed about the general objective of the project as well as the survey. The aspects such as what, where and why is to be constructed was discussed. The potential benefits as well as the adverse impacts to the environment, communities' social economic conditions and their overall livelihood were also thoroughly discussed. Assets relocation and compensation requirement, as well as villagers' perception of the proposed project were specifically consulted, discussed and recorded. (See main for signed consultation records) At all time during the consultation and discussion session, particular effort was made so the villagers were aware that the project, as proposed, was in no way an imposition to the villagers, and that they had every right in determining the outcome of the project. (d) The primary data (required for the study) was obtained through the survey (face- to-face interview using preset questionnaires) of affected villagers (villagers whose properties situate within the transmission right of way), including head of villages. (See Annex 3.1 for sample of Questionnaire forms) The survey focused on the attitude of local villagers, regarding the proposed project and its potential adverse and beneficial impacts. It also focused on current status of land and forest usage, income generation activities, land acquisition, wildlife conditions, resettlement and compensation. The current status of unexploded ordinance (UXO) as well as potential impacts on social, economic and environment were also assessed. These data are summarized and annexed to this report (See Annex 2.1, 2.2, 2.3, 2.4) (e) Before conducting the field survey, list of families/households especially for those people who have been affected by the project, were acquired from the head of the villages. Similarly some relevant secondary data such as total number of population, houses, households, and the amount of land and name of the owners were also collected. In case of head of families/households were absent either at work or at other engagement, another reliable senior member the family would be interviewed instead. To keep the interviewee from being influenced by each other, the interview session was kept separately and private. 2 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province Other relevant data on general environment- Forests ,flora and fauna, land use, water and streams etc., in and around project affected areas, was also collected during the field survey. List of rare or endangered wildlife species, list of protected areas, and some related data were obtained (from the previous studies and/or reports and published papers by the government agencies and the ministries concerned) prior to the commencement of the field survey. 2 Definition "Compensation" means payment in cash or in kind for an asset to be acquired or affected by a project at replacement cost. "Cut-off Date" is the date prior to which the occupation or use of the project area makes residents/users of the project area eligible to be categorized as affected persons. The cut-off date coincides with the date of the census of affected persons within the project area boundaries. Persons not covered in the census, because they were not residing, having assets, or deriving an income from the project area, are not eligible for compensation and other entitlements. "Entitlement" means a range of measures comprising compensation, income restoration support, transfer assistance, income substitution, and relocation support which are due to affected people, depending on the nature of their losses, to restore their economic and social base. "Project Authorities" refer to both Electricite du Laos (EdL) and Ministry of Industry and Handicraft (MIH), with EdL in charge of grid extension. "Displaced Persons (DP)" includes any person or persons, households, a firm, or private or public institution who, in the context of acquisition of assets and change in land usage, as of the cut-off date, on account of the execution of the project, or any of its subcomponents or part, would have their: Standard of living adversely affected; Right, title, or interest in any house, land (including residential, commercial, agricultural and grazing land) or any other moveable or fixed assets acquired or possessed, in full or in part, permanently or temporarily adversely affected; or Business, occupation, places of work or residence or habitat adversely affected, with or without displacement. DPs include persons or affected household and consist of all members of a household residing under one roof and operating as a single economic unit, who are adversely affected by a project or any of its components. For resettlement purposes, displaced persons will be considered as members of displaced households. "Rehabilitation" means assistance provided to DPs seriously affected due to the loss of productive assets, incomes, employment or sources of living, to supplement payment of compensation for acquired assets, in order to improve, or at least achieve full restoration of living standards and quality of life to pre-project level. "Relocation" means the physical shifting of a DP from his/her pre-project place of residence, place of work or business premises. 3 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province "Replacement Cost" is the amount needed to replace an asset and is the value determined as compensation for: * Agricultural land the pre-project or pre-displacement, whichever is higher, market value of land of equal productive potential or use located in the vicinity of the affected land, plus the cost of preparing the land to levels similar to those of the affected land, plus the cost of any registration and transfer taxes; * Land in urban areas, it is the pre-displacement market value of land of equal size and use, with similar or improved public infrastructure facilities and services and located in the vicinity of the affected land, plus the cost of any registration and transfer taxes; * Houses and other related structures based on current market prices of materials, transportation of material to construction site, cost of labor and contractor's fee, and cost of any registration and transfer taxes. In determining replacement cost, depreciation of the assets and value of salvaged building materials are not taken into account and no deductions are made for the value of benefits to be derived from the project; * Crops, trees and other perennials based on current market value; and Other assets (i.e. income, cultural, aesthetic) based on replacement cost or cost of mitigating measures. "Resettlement" means all measures taken to mitigate any and all adverse impacts of a project on DPs property and/or livelihoods, including compensation, relocation (where relevant) and rehabilitation as needed. "Vulnerable Group" are distinct groups of people who might suffer disproportionately or face the risk of being marginalized from the effects of resettlement and specifically include: Female headed households with dependents, Disabled household heads, Households falling under the generally accepted indicator for poverty, Elderly households with no means of support and landlessness, and Indigenous minorities. 3 Policy Objectives The objectives of the resettlement policy framework will include the following elements: a) Involuntary resettlement should be avoided or minimized through design efforts. b) Where involuntary resettlement is unavoidable, resettlement activities should be conceived and executed as sustainable development programs, providing sufficient compensation, assistance and rehabilitation to the DPs so that they would be at least as well off as they would have been in the absence of the project. c) DPs will benefit from the project. 4 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 11 5kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province d) Project stakeholders (including DPs) are consulted and given the opportunity to participate, as practicable, in the design, implementation, and operation of the project, and e) DPs should be assisted in their efforts to improve their livelihoods and standard of living or at least to restore them, in real terms, to pre-displacement levels. The proposed resettlement policy should apply to all components under the project funded by the Bank and directly related projects funded by other sources. The compensation and entitlement policy should apply to all displaced persons regardless of the total number affected or the severity of impact. Particular attention is paid to the needs of vulnerable groups among those displaced: especially those below the poverty line, the elderly, women and children, and ethnic minorities. 4 Project Scope (a) This project consists of mainly two construction works. One is construction of 1 15kV transmission line from Xestl power station to Ban Nadonkhouang Substation the total length of about 25km. Another work is the expansion of the existing switchyard at Xesetl Hydropower station and the construction of a new substation in Ban Nadonkhouang. The alignment starts from Xesetl power station, generally follows existing roads such as National Road No. 20, for the first half it is on the eastern side of the road and the remainder is on the western side of the road heading in the northeast direction to Ban Nadonkhouang . During the construction, 25 m width clearance (trees, bushes) along the transmission line Right-of-Way will be carried out. Trees, if any higher than 3 meters, along the Right-of-Way (ROW) of the transmission line will be removed. 5 Socio-Economic Condition The demographic, ethnic, socio-economic and cultural conditions within the Project area have been documented using a variety of primary and secondary sources. In order to provide data for the social analysis of the Project, the survey and interview were carried out for every affected village and households as mentioned in Table 5.1. (127 affected households from 15 villages which belong to Saravanh district). Before conducting survey and interview, a consultation process was also carried out with the local organizations concerned such as District Administration Office, DAFEO and village authorities. Secondary sources of data/information included extensive district annual reports; demographic and other data collected directly from district and village authorities in the Project area; and, numerous studies, reports and other documents related to the project. 5 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province Table 5.1 Affected Villages and Households and Population Distribution Total Total Total N.o District Affected Villages Number of Number Total Number affected Remark Household of Population Of affseted Rmr Family Female Household Nadonkhouang 57 76 412 200 4 Nathone 111 116 802 308 20 Dongnong 68 80 475 231 12 I Thongpapok-Nay 33 36 203 103 11 . z 4 Thongpapok-Nok 16 22 106 57 11 : Naxay-Nhay 92 94 569 297 15 cw Naxay Kokphao 72 103 471 219 10 Donkhao 31 31 223 114 0 Dongko-Tay 38 39 216 110 0 Dongko-Kang 34 38 244 109 6 Dongko-Neua 63 70 468 234 5 Beng 142 154 786 430 14 Senvang-Noy 103 107 637 293 3 Senvang-Nhay 153 272 963 517 17 Beng-Sexet 35 36 225 117 1 Toa 1Vilas1048 16274 6.800 3,339 129 Total 15 Villa-ges __z___ I 1 ___ __2_____12 Note: This focuses on Project Area Only. 5.1 Population and Demographics The total population of Lao PDR stands at 5.6 million with 2.8 million is female. At 2.8 million, the proportion of people aged 15-54 years is 48% of the total (Initial Report on Census at provincial and district levels, NSC, Sept. 2005). The national average for life expectancy at birth is 54 years (World Bank, 2000). This means that the population is very young, with more than 40% aged less than 15 years. Lao PDR is a rural landlocked country. In terms of population distribution, 88% of Lao people lived in rural and remote areas and only 12% lived in urban areas (NSC, Sept. 2005). The rural village is the basic social unit of the country. According to the 2005 census, across the country there are nearly 10,600 villages and 140 districts. The average village population is 500, although actual settlements may range from as few as 20-30 households, to larger villages of more than 300 households. The predominantly rural nature of Lao PDR means population densities are very low. The national average in 2005 is 24 persons/km2. The average population density in rural and remote areas is 9 persons/km2 and in Vientiane Capital City is 177 persons/km2. The regional distribution of population densities with central region is 24 persons/km2, while northern and southern regions are 18 persons/km and 23 persons/km2 respectively (CPC-NSC, 2005). 6 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province As mentioned earlier, the project covers only 15 villages within one district; namely Saravanh district, Saravanh Province. According to the field survey conducted by the team survey we see that among 15 affected villages within the project areas, the total population is 6,800 people with 3,339 female and total of 1,048 households and 1,274 families, Table below shows the distribution of population among the affected villages. 5.2 Ethnic Composition Ethnically, Lao PDR is highly diverse, both in terms of number of ethno-linguistic groups and in the breadth of their higher linguistic diversity. More than 230 spoken languages, belonging to four language super stocks, have been identified, making Lao one of the world's most diverse countries. With respect to location, the areas of highest diversity are often in the remotest upland areas, particularly within and around NBCAs (FS2020, July 2005). The 2000 Census identified 49 different groups with sub-groups totaling over 200 (ADB, 2000). Ethnic groups within the Lao territory are grouped in four major ethnolinguistic families. These families commonly grouped into three categories that reflect the dominant languages, settlement patterns and agricultural practices. * Ethnic Lao, Tai Dam, Tai Deng, Leu, Phutai and other members of the Tai-Kadai family are also referred to as Lao Loum or "Lao of the valley". Together, they constitute about 67% of the population in the whole country; the ethnic Lao, about 52%. They tend to live in river valleys and plains up to elevations of 200-400 m where they practice irrigated paddy rice cultivation. In general, Lao Loum speak the national language and are mostly practicing Buddhists. * Khmu and other members of the Austro-Asiatic family of ethnic groups have been present in Southeast Asia for over 5,000 years. In Laos, there are at least 35 ethnic groups in this family, comprising about 23% of the population. Also referred to as Lao Theung or "Lao of the mountain slopes", they tend to inhabit the intermediate slopes, foothills and upper valley areas at elevations of 300-900 m. They have traditionally practiced upland rice or swidden cultivation, with a community rotating fields from a permanent village. Many of these ethnic groups speak their own languages and most are animists. * The ethnic groups of the Miao-Yao and Sino-Tibetan families make up about 10% of the population of Laos, having migrated from China and Viet Nam 100-150 years ago. Also known as Lao Soung, or "Lao of the mountain tops", they generally live in high mountain areas at elevations of 800-1,600 m. They also practice swidden cultivation, although they tend to be semi-migratory, moving their villages when existing plots decline in productivity. As with Lao Theung, many Lao Soung groups speak their own languages and are animists. The level of integration of different ethnic groups in Lao PDR depends on a number of factors. In general, ethnic groups are distinguished by social structures and patterns of participation, as well as by how they allocate and use of land and other resources for living and maintaining livelihoods. Ethnic Lao and other lowland groups, as mentioned, generally speak Lao, the national language, and are considered to constitute the "mainstream" of Lao society. Ethnic groups classified as Lao Theung and Lao Soung are considered ethnic minorities due to, among other reasons, the fact that many groups constitute less than 1 % of the national population and, cumulatively, they make up about one-third of the population. They also tend to live in more remote areas, do 7 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 11 5kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province not traditionally practice paddy rice cultivation and frequently most of them are unable to speak Lao. However, due to the frequent movement of Lao villages, there are varying degrees of integration of different ethnic groups. These movements have occurred due to traditional patterns of swidden cultivation (or shifting cultivation) among Lao Theung and Lao Soung groups; displacements caused by war; and, GOL policies to relocate villages to stop shifting cultivation or to combine many small villages into one big villages for security and development reasons. There are now many rural villages with 2-4 major ethnic groups, compared with traditional patterns of a single ethnic group in a village. As a consequence, many Khmu and other Lao Theung now practice paddy rice cultivation, instead of or in addition to swidden or shifting cultivation. However, most Lao Soung continue to practice only swidden cultivation due to most of them live in the northern upland areas, only some of them especially those who live in the lowland practice paddy rice cultivation. As mentioned early, the project area encompasses 15 villages, which belong to only one district in Saravanh province, while 127 households are affected by the project which consists of two main ethnic groups namely Lao which is under the Tai-Kadai family that also referred to as Lao-Loum and Lao Theung which under the Khmu and other members of the Austro-Asiatic family. However, most of them live together in the same village and practice paddy rice cultivation. 5.3 Economic Conditions According to the National Growth and Poverty Eradication Strategy (NGPES, January, 2004), generally, poverty has indeed decreased dramatically over the last decade, as shown through the Lao Expenditure and Consumption Surveys (LECS). LECS-I in 1992/93 showed that 45% of the population were living below the poverty line. In 1997/98 (LECS-Il) this proportion declined to 38.6% of the population - a significant reduction in the incidence of poverty. Preliminary data from LECS-Ill in 2002/2003 indicates that the poverty level may have fallen further to about 30%. This is very encouraging. Agriculture and forestry including cultivation of rice, vegetables and other cash and permanent crops, animal husbandry, harvesting of non-timber forestry products and fishing, are the major economic sectors in Lao PDR. Based on the NGPES (2004), Saravanh district is not considered as poor district. However, according to the information gathered from field survey, the Table below shows the economic conditions among the different affected villages.

Rice cultivation: In Lao PDR there are two main agro-systems such as paddy rice cultivation and swidden cultivation which included shifting cultivation and rotational cultivation. The most common are paddy rice cultivation method and are widely practiced among the lowlanders, with availability of irrigation system double cropping per year are normally achieved. The swidden methods are most common among the highlanders-mainly ethnic minorities (Shifting Cultivation Status Report for FS 2020 Formulation, MAF-DOF, 2003). In Saravanh district, most people are relied on paddy rice cultivation. Dry season irrigated agriculture development in the district is still limited (only one village practices irrigated paddy rice cultivation namely Naxay-Nhay) as irrigation system is limited and electricity is required for pumping water from the River and most streams lack of water in the dry season. Cash Crops: Most lowland households maintain permanent vegetable gardens near streams and springs where they grow a wide variety of vegetables and fruits for sales as well as household consumption. Swidden farmers also grow a wide diversity of crops during the rainy season, either intercropped with rice during the rainy season or in separate plots during both rainy and dry seasons. Throughout parts of Southern Lao PDR, different tree plantations are extensively cultivated as cash crops, as are various other crops, but in a very small scale by small holders. These cash crops include, depending on the region within the study area, but not fall within the transmission line ROW, such as Teak, coffee, bananas, orange, mango, jackfruit, tamarind, pineapple, sugar cane, 9 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province peanuts, groundnuts, cardamom and vegetables. However, there is no any plantation area, farmland and/or planted trees to be affected by the project. Subsistence households consume the majority of their crops, to vary diets and, during rice shortages, to meet basic needs; or, they use them as animial feed. Surplus rice, vegetables and cash crops are sold in local markets. Because they tend to live nearer to markets and urban centers, 40% of lowland households sell some of their agricultural products (NSC, 2000). Animal raising: As stated previously, nearly 90% of rural households raise one or more kinds of livestock, the sale of which constitutes a major source of cash incomes. Nearly all households involve in this activity, for consumption as well as for sale, which is the most important source of cash income, especially for those who own limited agricultural land. On average, each household raises one or more kinds of livestock that include buffaloes, cattle, goat and pigs. In general, buffalo are used are draught animals in rice paddies. Manure from these large animals is often the only fertilizer used in the production of rice and other crops. Rural households also raise pigs and poultry such as chicken and ducks, for their own consumption and for occasional sale. NTFPs harvesting and Fishing: Generally, NTFPs play a central role in the rural economy, as they provide: 1) animal proteins (from wild meat, fish, frogs, shrimp, soft-shelled turtles, crabs and molluscs), 2) calories, vitamins and dietary fiber (from mushrooms, bamboo shoots, honey, wild fruits and vegetables), 3) materials for house construction and handicraft production (bamboo, rattan, pandanus, broom grass, paper mulberry), 4) traditional medicines and 5) cash income (from the sale of NTFP species). However, NTFPs collection among the affected villages is only for daily food and household utilization, not for sale. Food is considered by villagers as the most important product from the forest; and wild meat and fish are the main source of protein in most people's diet. In many villages, all foods except for rice are collected from the forest and river. It has been estimated that wild foods contribute 60-80% of non-rice food consumption, and provide an average of 4% of energy intake, 40% of calcium, 25% of iron, and 40% of vitamins A and C. The importance of NTFP foods increases in times of emergency, when crops fail and villagers use tubers and other NTFPs as a substitute for rice especially in the remote areas. Rural people also depend on NTFPs for other needs such as medicines and construction materials. Main NTFPs are available within and around the affected villages and have also high potential for generate family income include: Rattan, Yang resin (Dipterocarpus alatus), mushrooms, bamboo shoot, wild fruits, wild vegetables, Khisi resin, Nhot-Nhe (Calumus sp.), Nhot-Boun (Daemonorops schmidtii) and others. Fishing is an important secondary activity for many rural households, with fish often supplying as much as 70% of the protein in the household diet as well as being a source of cash income (Chagnon, 1996). While, within Saravanh district, some households maintain fishponds, the majority fish come from Xedone and Mekong Rivers (using simple casting nets and other traditional fishing equipment) and some from other streams, lakes especially in the dry season and seasonal floodplains. Most households consume the bulk of their catch, but the sale of fresh and dried fish is not seen as a source of household cash income. In Saravanh District fishing are not seen as very important activities. However, fishing activity is primarily for subsistence need of the people living along the main big streams and rivers such as Houay Sexet and Xedone river. Fishing in the main rivers is 10 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province practiced throughout the year, while fishing in the small streams and non-river habitats such as ponds and rice fields, even it is most intensively utilized, last only for some months of the rainy season. Of these fishing habitats, the Xedone river is the productive both in terms quantity and quality. The non-river habitats are considered to be subsidiary fishing. People settled in the area such main river have developed over the centuries a very rich capture fisheries tradition. Handicrafts and home businesses: Traditional handicrafts meet practical household needs and to generate cash income. Some of these include weaving, particularly among Lao, Phou-Tai and other lowland groups; basketry and string bags made by Phou-Tai, Ma-Kong and. Ka-Leung groups, the embroidery, however, within the Project area is very rare, only for household use in some villages. Small home businesses tend to focus on activities that relate to or complement the agricultural activities of the household. These frequently include rice mills, making or repairing clothes or, adjacent to a road, a small kiosk selling drinks and fruit. In some instances, members of a household may be exclusively engaged in a more substantial household business, such as a temporary garage or other small-scale services especially in urban areas and/or small towns. Sources of income and Cash Income: Based on the results of our on-site survey and villagers' interview, it indicated as shown in Table 4.3.4a below that villagers who live within affected areas have different sources of income. However, the main source of income of most villagers is agricultural production and livestock due to most of villages within project areas are located not far away from the main Road. Meanwhile, the other sources are seen as minor such as small business/services and daily employment/workers. The sources of income in this case do not mean that one household has only one source, it means that one household may have many sources of income which implied the multiple occupations and livelihoods system of the villagers within the affected areas.

Some rural villages have no commercial facilities due to lack of electricity. Other villages on well-access road or at road intersections have some small kiosks that sell drinks, fruit, cigarettes and other small items. They also have shops that prepare and sell food. In terms of industrial activities, within the project area, there is no any factory or even small scale industries. 5.6 Health and Educational Conditions within the Project Area The social well-being of a country relates to its ability to meet basic human needs as indicated by health, including, maternal and child health, nutrition and access to safe drinking water, sanitation and, education, including educational achievement and literacy. Overall, the levels of social well-being in Lao PDR tend to be low, in absolute terms and in comparison with other countries. Health and disease conditions within the proiect area: Based on the information gathered from villagers' interview regarding the health and disease conditions during the last three years within the affected area of the project, the result shows that there is no any dangerous disease broken-out within the project area except for Malaria and Diarrhea which seen as very familiar with the Lao local people particularly who live in the remote areas. However, it needs to be closely and carefully monitored in order to avoid such disease. Education: In terms of educational achievement and literacy, the deficiencies in educational achievement are reflected in literacy rates for adults over 15 years of age. The national average of 60% compares poorly with a rate of 83% in the East Asian region (World Bank, 2000). More significant are the variations in educational achievement across geographic regions in Lao PDR, in urban and rural areas and between sexes that indicate systemic problems regarding access to education in Lao PDR. The literacy rates among ethnic minority groups, for both men and women, are substantially lower than for ethnic Lao and other lowland groups. Educational conditions within the Project area (affected villages), based on the on-site interview of Villages Chief, the results in the Table 4.3.6 below shows that the educational levels of the villagers within the affected villages are quite different. It was also found for some villages, quite large numbers of illiteracy are still existed, despite some claims of total literacy achievement. 13 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 11 5kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province Table 5.6.1: Educational Level of Villagers within the affected Villages Educational Level Villages Uneducate Literacy/ Lower Upper College or Total d Primary Secondary Secondary University School School School Nadonkhaung Total 25 54 28 23 0 130 Female 15 30 15 5 0 65 Nathone Total 50 120 11 4 0 185 Female 15 70 7 0 0 92 Dongnong Total 30 70 5 3 0 108 Female 17 45 2 1 0 65 Thongpapok-Nay Total 20 50 5 0 0 75 Female 15 20 0 0 0 35 Thongpapok-Nok Total 0 12 2 0 0 14 Female 0 4 0 0 0 4 Naxay-Nhay Total 0 60 30 27 0 117 Female 0 32 17 11 0 60 Naxay-Kokphao Total 0 70 0 2 0 72 Female 0 30 0 1 0 31 Donkhao Total 40 20 0 0 0 60 Female 30 1 0 0 0 31 Dongko-Tay Total 0 30 5 0 0 35 Female 0 10 0 0 0 10 Dongko-Kang Total 28 22 2 1 0 53 Female 15 8 0 0 0 23 Dongko-Neua Total 40 53 5 1 0 99 Female 25 23 0 0 0 48 Beng Total 0 80 45 26 0 151 Female 0 35 23 12 0 70 Senvang-Noy Total 65 15 2 0 0 82 Female 47 0 0 0 0 47 Senvang-Nhay Total 200 345 100 30 0 675 Female 120 200 65 10 0 395 Beng-Sexet Total 100 15 2 0 0 117 Female 50 3 0 0 0 53 Grand Total Total 598 1,016 242 117 0 1,973 Femal 349 511 129 40 O 1 029 Note: This focused only within the affected Villages and the children under 6 years old and the old persons more than 55 are not included. Labour Force: Based on 2000 census data (NSC, 2000), the Lao labour force1 includes 69.5% of men and 71.1% of women. The proportion of employed men and women in rural areas is 15- 1In Lao PDR, the labour force is defined as "economically active" persons over the age of 10 years and includes those persons who are presently unemployed. 14 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province 50% higher than in urban areas. Only 1.7% of the population is unemployed. Unemployment rates in rural areas are 2-4 times lower than in urban areas in the same province. Within the Project area (the affected villages), based on the results of survey, each village is available in terms of labour force for Project construction. The Table below is the summary of number of the main and secondary labours which are available for conducting of any activities during the Project construction within each affected village.

Since the transmission line alignment runs along with and crosses the National Road where most of the lands along the two sides of the road have been developed/developing and converted/converting into other used purposes. However, most affected villages are located quite far away from the main road, therefore, some infrastructures and facilities within the project area are available and 15 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province some are not.

In areas where there is no electricity, the main source of energy for cooking, heating and process activities is firewood. According to FAO, 1999, the consumption of fuel-wood including wood for charcoal in Lao PDR in 1999 is averaged at 0.775m3 per year per person, so far there is no any accurate data regarding fuel-wood consumption. Electricity: Within the project area, only 7 villages are provided electricity especially the villages that locate near to the main road, district or town. While some remote villages which locate quite far away from these areas have no access to electricity. 16 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 11 5kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province 5.9UXO Conditions UXO contamination is a very serious problem for the Lao PDR. In addition to the human suffering and loss of life, UXO contamination blocks development in large areas of the country. Thus the National UXO Decontamination Programme addresses an important factor in fighting poverty. During a ten-year period (1964 to 1973), the Lao PDR experienced intense ground battles and aerial bombings. It is estimated that over 500,000 bombing missions were launched over Lao PDR, and more than 2 million tons of ordnance was dropped during the 1964-1973 in Lao PDR, while about 30% of ordnance failed to explode, leaving large areas of the country littered with unexploded ordnance (UXO). Severe UXO contamination still affects 15 provinces, Saravanh district, Saravanh Province is among them (NGPES, 2004). The areas affected represent over 50% of all agricultural land (MAF/JICA, 2001). Three decades after the Indochina War, many people are still being killed or badly crippled from ordnance. The litter of highly dangerous ordnance denies access to much needed land, deters the planting of crops and grazing of livestock, and hinders collecting fuel and water. It also discourages movement between villages and slows transport and communication works, and generally undermines social and development activities. According to the information gathered from the UXO office as shown in the following UXO map, UXO scarcely still remain on some areas within the project area, except for rice paddy fields where have been cleared by local villagers, but only on the ground surface. Paying particular attention to the mentioned portions of the Transmission Line, we investigated-by interviewing the appropriate villagers, according to the results from the interview of villagers within the Project Area especially along the transmission line. It was found that there are some villages that still have severe UXO contamination, although some portions of these areas have already been developed and converted into other used purposes. The main UXOs are bombs dropped from the jet bombers or airplane bombers including BLU-3, BLU-26, BLU-42, BLU-61, BLU-63, M-14 and others. The Table and the Map below show the area and condition of UXO contamination impact. Table 5.9.1: Summary of UXO condition within Affected Villages N Name of Village Type of UXO Remark 0.

The forestry and wildlife resources along the alignment ROW have largely been removed, due to past and recent logging as well as clearing for agricultural activities, and in particular the practice of shifting (slashed and burnt) cultivation. The transmission line route has been chosen to avoid villages, the environmentally sensitive areas and important view-scape areas such as NBCAs, Protection Forest, place of high recreational value and religious and cultural/heritage sites. The selected route passed mainly through rice paddy fields and degraded forests and some poorly managed Village Use Forests. The expansion work of Xeset 1 substation will be done within the existing substation sites, which are owned by the EdL, and Ban Nadonkhouang substation will be constructed within the public land. Therefore, those constructions do not generate any impact and do not require any compensation or relation. (b) The majority of the affected properties are rice paddy fields, some gardens and cropping areas. Apart from this land use types, along the transmission line, there are some Villages Used Forests, but they are poorly maintained and virtually depleted. The total amount of affected Village Used Forests are approximately 30 ha. This represents only a very small portion of the overall Village Used Forests areas in the vicinity of the transmission line ROW, therefore the villagers are not gravely affected. However, as a consequent of forest clearing along the ROW, the grazing areas will increase hence a potential increase in livestock production for the villagers. (c) The affected Districts and villages are shown in the table 6.1 below. List of affected individual households, types of affected assets and income and sources of incomes are shown in Annex 1 and Annex 2 of this report. Based on the result of site survey during the IEE study, no people will be resettled, no structure and assets will be affected, and no productive forest will be affected. Compensation for temporary land occupation is not considered because the construction work will be conducted during the dry season and well after harvesting period.

Under EDL's "contract for the construction of the transmission line", it stipulates that access road to the construction site shall utilize the existing roads or tracks. If new access is to be constructed (not encourage) either on private or public land written approval from EDL must be obtained. Only some paddy fields that would be permanently occupied by the towers will be compensated for, the rest of the land uses are either degraded forests or slashed and burnt areas (Ray) and Village Use Forests which are considered government land or non productive land therefore are not subject for compensations. The total amount of areas and land use types estimated to be permanently loss (to be occupied by towers) are shown in the table 4.2 below.

The concerned legislations and regulations will ensure that impacts of land acquisitions and resettlement (not applicable in this case) for the project will be adequately addressed during project planning and implementation. 7.1 Laws (1) The Electricity Law (1997) requires that "the licensee (EDL) is responsible for ensuring that environment is protected, and that residents are compensated in cash or in kind for lost property, diminished living conditions, relocation and resettlement." (2) The Land Law (1997) The land law stipulates that in case of the public infrastructure development projects cause damage to the trees, crops or buildings of the private owner, the land and structure owners have the right to be compensated for the loss of or damage to such assets (3) Forestry Law (1996) The forestry law stipulates that forest land can be converted to other uses when necessary and if in the public interest, and subject to approval from responsible authorities. An individual or organization given permission to convert forest to another use is responsible for payment of a conversion fee, land reclamation, tree planting, and other requirement. 7.2 Regulations and Decrees (1) Environmental Management Standard In addition to the above laws, Department of Electricity, Ministry of Industry and Handicraft also issued Environmental Management Standard Documents, which provide more details guidance on how to prepare power sector projects, which requires the project owner to prepare IEE to be approved by Ministry of Industry and Handicraft (MIH) and Science, Technology and Environment Agency (STEA). (2) Prime minister Decree No 192 on Resettlement and Compensation (2005) The decree which was adopted in 2005 becomes an important instrument in guiding resettlement and land acquisition activities in Lao PDR at the present time and in the future. The key compensation and resettlement principles of this decree, are listed 22 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province below, which are in general agreement with the requirements of ADB and the World Bank. * Project Affected Persons will be provided compensation for their lost assets affected in full or in part, at full replacement cost. * In case of compensation for the affected to type of land (agriculture, residential or commercial) will be through provision of "land to land" arrangement of equivalent size or productivity and at the location acceptable to the Affected Persons. If the land not available, cash compensation at full replacement cost is applied. * If the house or structure is partially being affected by the project but the remaining structure is rendered unviable or area less than the minimum house size. Affected Persons will be entitled to compensation. * In case of the Affected Persons affected by partial loss of structure and remaining still viable. The assistance in a form of cash or material to restore the structure is applied. * In case of the temporary affected by the projects, there will be full compensated of the net loss of income. If the temporary use (affected) of the assets less than 6 months there will be compensated of 10% of the replacement cost of the affected assets. But if more than 6 months compensation should be negotiated with the owner of the assets. * In case of the Persons have leased the house, structure or the form. Compensation equivalent of 3 months rental allowance if applied. There will be also assisted in finding the alternatives for rental accommodation. * The affected persons without any legal title or ownership right to affected land or assets they occupy should be compensated and provide assistance to ensure they are not worse-off due to project. * All previous claims and unresolved issues related to tenure status and ownership of land and other assets on each sub-project or components will be resolved before land acquisition. . Resettlement process should be carry out in a participatory manner following the General guidelines for Public Involvement. 8 Compensation Standards Based on the above laws, regulations, and compensation principles, and based on successful implementation experience of previous projects, a set of compensation standards and valuation methods have been developed for the proposed Project as follows: 8.1 Permanent Land Acquisition For permanent land acquisition, different compensation will be paid based on different types of land areas. It is agreed that for productive farmland, mainly paddy land, the basic compensation will be 10 times of annual output value for lost farmland. The detailed formula of estimating the unit compensation rate is: Unit Compensation of Paddy land 23 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province - Yields of the field (ton/ha/year) x Market Price of Rice x Compensation period (year) Given the different yield of paddy and market price in different towns and provinces, the actual compensation rate will vary from province to province. For example, in some paddy fields near the town, with good irrigation, crops could be harvested twice a year. As a result, the annual yield and output value of such paddy land will be much more than those areas with only one time harvest each year. For acquired scrub land and garden land, the compensation rate will be set at one third of compensation rate for paddy land. Based on the previous project experience, such compensation was well received among affected people. With limited land loss and adequate compensation, no significant negative impacts are expected. 8.2 Temporary Land Occupation In addition to the income losses from permanent land acquisition, there will be income losses from temporary land occupation or disturbances during project construction. For such losses, compensation of lost crops at replacement value and cost of restoring land into original conditions will be paid by the project owner. Depending on length of such occupation, most of impacts will be limited to one crop loss, but for some cases, such occupation might take up more than one year with multiple crop losses. The compensation will be based on average yield and market price of lost crops. Efforts will be made by the project owner to minimize the impacts of temporary land occupation by timing the construction after planting season. Under EDL's construction contract requirement for temporary land occupation such as "access road" is to use existing or developing existing track, rather than construction of new one. This is to minimize the impact. 8.3 Structures and Assets In Lao PDR there are no unified compensation standards for lost structures and assets. Based on relevant laws and regulations, the basic compensation principle is to provide compensation at replacement value, which will include (i) cash for lost structures sufficient to replace materials and labor to build replacement structures to an equivalent size and standard; (ii) housing plot to build the replacement structure; and (iii) allowance for the expense of relocation and lost of income during transfer. For transmission line project, since affected houses are only required to move short distance from the right of way, based on experience of EdL from the previous Project, most affected houses with small size and traditional wood structure were simply moved by the villagers to nearby locations. In this case, the project owner will pay all related cost for such moving event after consultation with affected people and villages. The agreed total compensation will include new site preparation, payment for moving ceremony, and cost of additional materials for minor repairs. The project owner will ensure that all moved houses would have the same or better conditions after the move. However, no house or any structural property will be affected in this project. 24 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 11 5kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province 8.4 Economic Trees and Cash Crops For the loss of various trees during the clearance of right of way under the transmission line, the general compensation principle is to provide replacement value to the affected people. After consultation with the branch EdL, provincial government and affected villages, the basic formula for estimating such compensation is developed. (1) Industry Trees: Compensation = (Cost of land clearing + Cost of seedling) + (Cost of taking care x year of taking care) (2) Fruit Trees: Compensation = (Cost of land clearing + Cost of seedling) + (Cost of taking care x year of taking care) + (Cost of income x year of income) In order to ensure that the compensation rates for economic trees are adequate for providing replacement value and restoring income and livelihood for the affected people, during resettlement preparation for individual subprojects, each province will develop a detail list of compensation rates for various trees, which will be based on agreed formula and current yield, and market prices of different crops. Such list of compensation rates will be consulted with local government and affected people prior to project implementation, which will be included in the resettlement action plans. However, no fruit trees or industrial trees will be impacted in this project. 8.5 Other Compensation and Assistance For any loss of infrastructure facilities and community services, such as roads, bridges, schools, electricity, water, and so on, EdL will provide in-kind compensation by rebuilding these facilities to their original status. Such replacement will be completed prior to the construction of transmission projects, so that the daily life of concerned communities will not be affected. For all affected households who will be relocated due to the demolition of their houses, in addition to providing replacement land for housing construction, each affected family will be given in-kind or cash assistance by EdL to prepare the site, and construct necessary on-site infrastructures. In order to facilitate the moving for all relocated households, transfer assistance will be provided by EdL to the affected people. In case of the transmission line passing the honorable area of the villages like "spirit forest" area and cemetery area, EdL will consult with villages to arrange a traditional moving ceremony according to village practice, and EdL will be responsible for any cost related to the relocation. Three cemeteries are on the ROW alignment, recommendation for slight alteration of the alignment would avoid the impact to the cemeteries 25 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province 8.6 Unit Compensation Cost Based on the above compensation policy, unit compensation rate was calculated on market basis in southern region as follows. Before deciding compensation for each Affected People (AP), those must be consulted with local authorities and individual APs. (1) Permanent land acquisition * Paddy land Unit Compensation of Paddy land = 4 (ton/ha/year) x 1,000 (Kip) x 10 (year) = 4,000 Kip/m2 * Garden land Unit Compensation of Garden land = 1/3 (Unit Compensation of paddy land) = 1,333 Kip/m2 * Scrub land Unit Compensation of Scrub land = 1/3 (Unit Compensation of paddy land) = 1,333 Kip/m2 * Other Land Other land such as Dry Dipterocarp, Unstocked Forests and Ray are public land owned by the government. Therefore, if there is no production activities on the lands, no compensation is required. (2) Trees compensation During the construction of the transmission line, Project Environmental Management Committee (PEMC) otherwise Resettlement Coordination Committee (RCC) with local authority will identify actual affected trees and estimate amount of the compensation in detail. Since compensation for trees highly depends on types and growth levels of trees, it varies from 1,000 to 76,600 Kips according to EdL's experience. Referring to the previous project, the following compensation rates were estimated: (1) Fruit trees shall be divided into two groups: (1) Fruit trees and commercial trees such as teak, rubber, Eucapliptus, Kadong, accasia manqium, bamboo ...; (10 fruit tree such as Durian, Mango, Longan, Jack fruit, Banana ... (2) Rate of compensation for commercial tree is based on the following principles: 26 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province Number of planted trees per hectare: 2500 trees (spacing between trees: 2 meters) - Fixed cost for land preparation, purchase of sapling, cost of planting: 5,100,000 Kip/ hectare - Annual costs for maintaining the plantation: 300,000 Kip/hectares - Tree of less than 3 years is considered as 2 year old - Tree of 3 to 5years old is considered as 5 years old - Tree of more than 5 years old is considered as 8 years old. (3) Rate of compensation for fruit tree is based on the following principles: - Number of planted trees per hectare: 625 trees (spacing between trees: 8 meters) - Fruit tree is considered as mature (bearing fruit) if it is not less than 5 years old. - Compensation rate will be based on (i) the fixed cost of preparing the land, purchasing the sapling, planting, (2) the annual cost for maintaining the orchard and (3) the estimated annual revenue from the sale of the fruits. - Price of the fruit tree saple is estimated at 2000Kip/saple for local one and 8500Kip/saple for imported one. - Annual cost of maintaining the orchard: 300,000kip/hectare. - Annual income from sale of fruit: Mango, durion, orange, lemon: 100,000 Kip/tree/year Tamarind, longan: 50,00OKip/tree/year * Indian jujube, mimusops: 50,000 Kip/tree/year * Coconut, jack fruit: 25,00OKip/tree/year (4) Rate of compensation for bamboo varies from 15,000 kip per cluster to 30,000 Kip per cluster depending of the variety. (5) Rate of compensation for banana is 8000 Kip/cluster (6) Rate of compensation for sugar cane: 2500 Kip/cluster (7) Number of time frame for calculating the total revenue varies from 5 years to 15 years depending on the type of fruit. However, according to the site investigation conducted, most of trees affected were located on government owned land and there were no commercial trees and fruit trees planted by local villagers along the ROW. Therefore, compensation for trees is not applicable. (3) Village Cemetery Compensation Rate of compensation for village cemetery is estimated 5,000,00OKipNillage. This is for villagers to conduct traditional ceremony. 9 Criteria and Eligibility for Compensation The compensation and rehabilitation will be provided for all displaced persons under the following conditions: 27 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province a) if their land area or income source will be removed due to land acquisition of the project; b) if their houses (or residential plots) will be demolished or partly damaged due to the land acquisition; c) if their other properties (crops, trees, and other facilities) or access to these properties will be removed or damaged due to land acquisition or construction of the project. All displaced persons, regardless of their legal status, will be provided compensation and rehabilitation based on the policies adopted by EdL. Lack of legal paper of their customary rights of occupancy certificates shall not be an obstacle for obtaining compensation for them. It should also cover resettlement resulting from complementary activities that are not part of the Bank-assisted investment projects, but are necessary to achieve its objectives as set forth in the project documents. The policy applies to all displaced persons regardless of the total number affected or the severity of impact. Particular attention is to be paid to the needs of vulnerable groups among those displaced, especially those below the poverty line, the elderly, women and children, indigenous groups and ethnic minorities. 10 Institutional Arrangement For the Xesetl - Bandonkhouang 115kV Transmission Line Project, three levels of institutions will be involved in the process of resettlement planning and implementation. The first level of organization is the Project Environmental Management Committee (PEMC), which consists of officials from both key provincial departments and relevant districts. The second level is the Environmental Management Unit (EMU) of the EdL headquarter office which will be responsible for overall planning and implementation of environmental management and resettlement for the project. The third level of organization is Environmental Monitoring Office (EMO) of EdL branch offices in Saravanh province, which will be responsible for actual project implementation and coordination with local authorities as well as the affected households. These three levels of organizations will form the institutional network to ensure smooth implementation of resettlement activities in according to both resettlement policy framework and resettlement action plan approved by the World Bank. Refer to diagram and table below for institutional organizational structure and the roles and responsibilities of each unit 10.1 Project Environmental Management Committee (PEMC) Project Environmental Management Committee (PEMC) will be established in the Saravanh Province to decide compensation conditions, and monitoring social and 28 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province environmental aspects for the project. The PEMC will be consisted of at least 10 persons who are representative from the different authorities concerned such as DOE, EdL in Vientiane, Provincial EdL Branches of Saravanh, Provincial STEO, Provincial Industry and Handcraft Department, Provincial Land Office, Provincial Agriculture and Forestry Department (Provincial Forestry Section), Provincial and District Cabinets and other related officials. The Committee will have subcommittees such as Environmental management Committee, Forest Clearing Committee, Grievance Committee and Compensation Committee. PEMC will not only be responsible for the environmental monitoring but assuming the compensation role as well. 10.2 Environmental Management Unit (EMU) in EdL Headquarter Office While the project Environmental Management Office for the Xesetl - Saravan 1 1 5kV Transmission Line will be responsible for overall project preparation and implementation, Environmental Management Unit (EMU) in EdL Headquarter Office will be responsible for environmental and social aspects on the project in coordination with WB and Provincial EdL Branch Offices. The EMU will prepare all required documentation concerning the environmental and social aspects following both WB and Lao regulations, to monitor and supervise resettlement implementation by the PEMC and provincial EMO in order to ensure that the resettlement is complied with this Resettlement Policy Frameworks and RAP. In addition, the EMU is also responsible for conducting internal resettlement monitoring and preparing resettlement progress report, which will be submitted to DOE, STEA and the Bank each quarter during the project implementation period. 10.3 Environmental Management Office (EMO) in Provincial EdL Branch Office The actual implementation of the project will be managed by Provincial EdL Branch Office. Environmental Management Office (EMO) which will be established in the branch office for project monitoring and coordinating purposes. At least one official will be assigned for the EMO. The EMO will be responsible for implementation and monitoring of the Environmental Monitoring Plan (EMP) and this Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) as well as coordination with local authorities and the affected persons. Act as the first contact on the ground directly for the EMU and indirectly for the PEMC.

Contractors for the project under the supervision and guidance of the environmental management committee will conduct detailed site survey to identify objects to be compensated and to collect detailed data concerning the loss of assets and compensation cost, in collaboration with local authorities. Summary of field data of affected households is given in (Annex 2.1-4). Unless the detailed alignment is altered the affected household data given will be the accurate base line information for compensation 11.2 Review of Resettlement Action Plan Based on the data and information collected during the detailed site survey, this RAP will be reviewed. Following the resettlement policy framework and consultation between EdL and PEMC, a data sheet needs to be prepared which include three basic sections (i) the scope of impacts (name and quantities of affected assets) (ii) detailed compensation rates and rehabilitation measures for affected assets, and (iii) total amount to pay to the affected people. 11.3 Consultation with Affected People The prepared data sheets and resettlement plan or compensation policies will be consulted with local governments, affected villages and individuals. The comments and feedback from local governments and affected people will be reviewed by EdL management and considered in the RAP finalization. 11.4 Disclosure of the RAP policy to the Affected People After finalization of the RAP or datasheet with detailed compensation standards and rehabilitation measures, those documents will be disclosed to the affected people and villages. The public disclosure of RAP could be carried out by holding public meeting, putting up notice in the affected villages, or distributing resettlement information booklet to the affected people. 32 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province 11.5 Signing of Compensation Contract and Payment of Compensation to the Affected People The final step of resettlement implementation is to sign compensation contract and delivery payment to the affected people, which should be completed prior to project implementation. However, if house relocation and substantial land loss taking place, such payment need to be completed at least three months prior to construction, which will give the affected people reasonable time to complete new houses and move their belongings. During the implementation, EdL will pay such amount directly to each affected household in the presence of local government representatives. 12 Reporting and Approval During the feasibility study of the Project, the Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) was conducted. This RAP is prepared as a part of this study. Before starting of construction work, detailed survey will be conducted in collaboration with local authorities under the supervision of the Project Environmental Management Committee (PEMC), and then consultations will be conducted between the committee and project- affected people. EdL branch office will prepare all datasheet and records of consultations with project-affected people. EMU of EdL headquarter will summarized all the information to review this RAP and it will be sent to WB for approval. 13 Resettlement Funding, Cost Estimate, Flow of Funds and Contingencies The cost of potential land acquisition and resettlement will be included in the total project cost for the transmission project. EdL will be sure sufficient funding available to cover all resettlement related cost for the Project. During project implementation, detailed cost estimate of the compensation and resettlement will be developed after detailed survey. The total resettlement budget submitted by EdL branch office will be reviewed and approved by EdL Headquarter. After receiving the letter of approval from EDL headquarter, EdL branch office will make funds available for implementing land acquisition and resettlement. Based on the result of site survey during the IEE study, no people will be resettled, no structure and assets will be affected, and no productive forest or industrial trees or fruit trees will be affected. Compensation for temporary land occupation is not considered because the construction work will be conducted during dry season and well after harvesting season. Only some paddy lands which are under towers (considered permanently loss assets) will be compensated for. During the detailed survey prior to the construction work, 33 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 11 5kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province however, additional to be compensated might be identified, and then compensation costs could be increased. Therefore, some contingency is considered. Based on the scope of the impacts and compensation rate above, the compensation budget is calculated as follows: Table 13.1: Estimation of Compensation Cost (for the losses).

In this case, the productivity of rice (husk) per one hectare for one season is 4,000 kilograms (or 4 tons/ha). The market price for 1 kilogram of husk (rice husk) is 1, 000 kip. The estimated price for compensation of village cemeteries, as to follow traditional protocol and spiritual rituals, is based on the consultation with village authorities. 35 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province 14 Consultations with, and participation of, and disclosure in planning, implementation During the site investigation for the IEE study, consultations were organized with affected persons and village representatives. Information was collected in datasheet in each affected village and consulted with some of villagers. Generally, results of the consultation show that villagers agreed on implementation of the project. There were also some discussions about land acquisition for the project, which will pass through paddy land, garden land etc. Most of affected people accepted those affects and expressed their willingness to assist EdL with their labour if needed for project construction work. This draft RAP will be translated in to Lao language and opened in public for further public consultation as soon as the government and the Bank have approved the draft documents. The tentative schedule of disclosure of RAP is as follows: > EdL will translate the draft RAP into Lao Language. > EdL send the draft RAP to Provincial and District offices. > The draft RAP will be displayed at EdL, Provincial and District offices for 15 days. If EdL holds workshops instead of displaying the draft RAP, Public disclosure period will be shorten. > If there are no comments, the draft RAP will be submitted to STEA for approval. If there are some comments, the draft RAP will be reviewed. > STEA will issue an IEE certificate of compliance. > EdL will implement the RAP. > Review and Finalization of RAP > Disclosure of Revised RAP Since the impacts by this project are not significant, these procedures will take about two months after the approval of draft RAP by the World Bank. 15 Grievance Redress Mechanism The affected people will be given many opportunities to review the survey results and compensation policies during the process of resettlement planning and implementation. However, during implementation, various issues might be encountered by the affected people. In order to resolve these concerns effectively and timely, a grievance redress mechanism shall be set up. The affected people will be notified about such mechanism before the resettlement implementation. If a person is not satisfied with his or her compensation or rehabilitation measure, he could voice his complaint to the affected village head or directly to the EMO. The village head or the EMO will give him an answer within two weeks. If he still does not agree with the solution, he could appeal directly to EMU of EdL headquarter, who will give him 36 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province a reply within two weeks. If he still does not agree with the decision, he could appeal to the PEMC where a special grievance committee will be established to address these issues. The Grievance Committee will make a final decision within two weeks. If he still does not agree with the decision, he could go the court as a last option. 16 Resettlement Monitoring and Evaluation Arrangement Following the requirements of the World Bank, during the project implementation, both internal and external resettlement monitoring and evaluation exercises will be carried out in order to monitor resettlement implementation and ensure all affected people are compensated adequately and their income and livelihood are restored after resettlement and rehabilitation. Monitoring budgets for resettlement are given as part of the overall budget forecast in the main IEE report. 16.1 Internal Monitoring The following periodic environmental monitoring will be carried out by EMU, EMO and PEMC periodically. During the monitoring, progress of resettlement implementation and compensation for affected people will be monitored and evaluated. a) Monthly monitoring: EdL's EMU will send their staff to the project site once a month to consult with the EMO and PEMC, participate in field work and conduct interview with the project affected villagers. b) Three month monitoring: A joint monitoring and evaluation between EdL's EMU and Social Environmental Unit (SEU) of Department of Electricity (DOE) of Ministry of Industry and Handicraft (MIH) will be conducted at the project site once in three months. The purpose of the monitoring is to work with the EMO and PEMC to review the progress of EMP work, to adjust the EMP effective and to consult with village representatives and project affected villagers. c) Six month monitoring: A joint monitoring and evaluation of Provincial STEO, DOE, EdL will be conducted once in six months. The purpose of the monitoring is to review the entire recommendation made by the monthly and three month monitoring and evaluation reports, to consult with the EMO and PEMC, to consult with the project affected villagers and to consider and change the EMP. 16.2 External (Independent) Monitoring and Evaluation Base on the STEA's guidelines for independent review (or 3third party review) and the requirements of the World Bank, external monitoring and evaluation will be conducted by an independent third party. EdL will select an independent institution, which consists of social specialists, with approval of the Bank. The selected institution should have extensive experience in similar activities. The main objective is by independently 37 RAP for Xesetl - Saravan 115kV Transmission Line, Saravanh Province monitoring and evaluating the resettlement implementation, to see whether the objective of resettlement is achieved; and to provide basic assessment on resettlement implementation and restoration of livelihood for the affected people. The scope of monitoring and evaluation includes the implementation progress, resettlement policies, delivery of compensation and replacement land, changes of income and livelihood among affected people, consultation and participation and development of local communities. The method of resettlement monitoring and evaluation will be based on a combination of sample household survey and rapid appraisal in the field. 16.3 Post Implementation Monitoring and Evaluation Six months to one year after the end of resettlement activities, the Independent Monitoring Body shall conduct an evaluation study of severely affected APs and the vulnerable groups among the affected population to determine whether or not the objectives of the RP in terms of restoration of incomes and living standards have been achieved. The methodology for the evaluation study will be based on the follow up socio-economic survey to determine the impact of the Project on AP income levels and living standards of those severely affected by the Project. Survey data at post evaluation stage will be compared with the baseline survey at the RAP preparation stage. The Post Implementation Evaluation Study may propose additional assistance to severely affected persons if resettlement measures were not adequate and may also provide recommendations for future resettlement planning. 38 I I I i Ii I I Annex 1 .1: Affected districts, Villages and number of Households 7 Affected Villages Ethnic Group Total Total Total Total No. of Remark (Sub-group) No. of No. of Female Population affected m A Household Faniilies Household 1.
