Some of the negative impacts and mitigation measures include: (1) if a land parcel remaining after partial expropriation of a land is economically unavailable, this remaining part will be acquired and compensated on demand of the land owner (at full replacement cost); (2) if agricultural land and crops lost during the lease, the owner should be compensated for the crop losses for the duration of lease. If land is used for business and income is affected during the lease, the business shall be compensated for losses for the duration of the lease; (3) providing assistance in finding a new place, moving, and shipping allowance. Compensate for income earned from the land, crops, and any investment made on the land, in a manner that they will not be worse off than before the project; and (4) transitional assistance to re-establish business in new location and compensation for lost income (depending on case and time lost) as necessary.  See Less -
