RESETTLEMENT INDEPENDENT MONITORING AND EVALUATION REPORT .................... 107 iv Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project Objectives of the RAP and the Definition of Resettlement Terminology This Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) is prepared according to the Laws and Regulations of PRC, and Hubei Province as well as the Guidelines of the World Bank (Operational Directive for Involuntary Resettlement OD 4.30). The purpose of this document is to set out an Action plan for the Resettlement and Rehabilitation of the Project Affected Persons (PAPs) to ensure that they will benefit from the project and their standards of living will improve or at least be restored after the project impact. Requisition of land and other assets for the project will adversely affect the livelihood of persons who live, work or earn their living on the land that will be acquired for the project. PAPs are defined as those persons whose income or livelihoods will be adversely affected by land requisition for the project. PAPs include the following categories: a) persons who have a title, right, interest, in structures (houses, enterprises, shelters, or public buildings), land (including residential, agricultural, and grazing land)or any other asset acquired or possessed, in full or in part, permanently or temporarily; b) persons who use the structures, land or assets described above; or persons whose business, occupation, work, place of residence or habitat adversely affected; or c) persons whose standard of living is adversely affected as a consequence of land requisition. Definition of the PAPs: "Affected Persons" means persons who on account of the execution of the project had or would have their: a) standard of living adversely affected; or b) right, title or interest in any house, land (including premises, agricultural and grazing land) or any other fixed or movable asset acquired or possessed , temporarily or permanently; or c) business, occupation. work or place of residence or habitat adversely affected, and "affected Person" means individually all those who qualify as "Affected persons." PAPs may be individuals or legal persons such as a company, a public institution. Definition of PAPs is not limited to their legal registration or permission to live or conduct business in the affected location, or their title to property Thus, it includes: a) all those affected by the project regardless of their legal rights or absence thereof to the assets being taken; b) persons without residential permit to live in a certain area. Therefore all such persons who are affected will need to considered and recorded as PAPs, regardless of their legal connection to assets land or location. If there are more than one person, family or household using or holding a title to the same land or property that is acquired, they will be compensated and rehabilitated according to the loss they suffer, their rights, and the impact on their living standards. The definition of PAPs is linked directly to the adverse effect of the project, regardless of legal rights title or interest. All PAPs are entitled to the improvement or at least restoration of their standards of living, and compensation for the material losses they suffer. Compensation for assets will cover replacement cost. No deductions or discounts will be applied to the compensation 1 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project amount for depreciation or other reasons. All PAPs deriving an economic benefit from the affected land and property are entitled to receive rehabilitation benefits in addition to the compensation for their assets lost. Those PAPs without title, authorization or legal permission to reside, conduct business, cultivate land or construct structures are eligible for rehabilitation of their livelihoods and compensation for their assets on an equal footing with those with formal legal title, authorization or permissions to the assets. Definition of "Resettlement": "Resettlement" means to provide the arrangement of product and livelihood for the PAPs and to ensure they will benefit from the project. It mainly includes: 1) the relocation of living quarters; 2) finding acceptable new employment for those whose jobs are affected; 3) restoration (or compensation) of affected productive resources such as land, workplaces, , trees and infrastructure; 4) restoration of other adverse effect on PAPs' living standards (quality of life) through land requisition (such as the adverse effects of pollution); 5) restoration of or compensation for affected private and public enterprises; 6) restoration of adversely affected on cultural or common property. Definition of "Rehabilitation": "Rehabilitation" means the restoration of the PAPs' resource capacity to continue with productive activities or lifestyles at a level higher or at least equal to that before the project. T'he objective of this RAP is to provide a plan for the resettlement and rehabilitation of the PAPs so that their losses will be compensated and their standards of living will be improved or at least restored to the pre-project levels. To achieve these objectives the plan provides for rehabilitation measures so that the income earning potential of individuals are restored to sustain their livelihoods. Affected productive resources of businesses (enterprises including shops) and public property. Infrastructure and cultural property will also be improved or at least restored to their pre-project levels. 2 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project 1. General 1.1. Project Background The investigation and planning of Xiakou Water Conservancy and Hydropower Project has been done for over 40 years since 1958, and the Xiakou people are eager to see the project construction early. In these years, people around reservoir dared not run large projects, and especially in recent years, it restricts the economic development of areas around reservoir seriously. So the project's starting early, firstly will give the people around reservoir a chance of development from project construction; Secondly, it will heighten the flood protection criteria and add the efficient irrigating area of areas upstream reservoir; Besides, it will enhance the capacity of electricity supply station upstream. 1.2. Project Description Xiakou Water Conservancy and Hydropower Project is located on the west of Xiakou Town which is upstream the Ju River with Nanzhang County on the northeast, 135km away from Nanzhang County and 50km away from Yuan'an County. The normal water level is 264.13m ( from the Yellow Sea Level, and same the next), with the corresponding reservoir capacity being 1.36 billion m3, the length of backwater being 18.26km and the reservoir area being 4.5km2. The Ju River is the western branch of Juzhang River which lies in the middle reaches of the Changjiang River. It originates from the Jing Mountains in Baokang County, and joins the Juzhang River in Lianghekou Village after pass Baokang, Nanzhang, Yuan'an and Dangyang from the northwest to the southeast. The mainstream of the Ju River has a span of 243.6km, with the catchment area of 3367km2. The catchment is like a strip, higher on the northwest and lower on the southeast, and is the interim region from the mountainous area which lies on the northwest of Hubei Province to the Jianghan Plain. The total fall of the Ju River is 1409m. The area upstream Xiakou Reservoir dam site is mountainous area and between Xiakou and Huangjiawan is sub-mountainous area or hilly, with the rest being plain area. The reach from Tongchenghe Village to Baifu Village in Xiakou Town, Nanzhang County is about 25km long. According to the catchment planning, Xiakou Reservoir is the first stair project on the Ju River, and the catchment area controlled by it is 1458km2, accounting to 43.3 % of the total. The project resettlement relates mainly to the 8 villager groups in three administration villages of the 1st, 2nd, 5th, 6th, 7th groups in Tongchenghe Village, the2nd, 3th groups in Ganhe Village and the 7th group in Xiakou Village in Xiakou Town, Nanzhang County. Besides, it is involved in a few of enterprise ecs and infrastructures etc. The project is designed by Hubei Provincial Water Conservancy and Hydropower Investigation & Design Institute. According to the feasibility study report of Xiakou Water Conservancy and Hydropower Project: "terranes around reservoir trend according to the river way, and lean to riverbed. Many beaches trend to the valleys, and appear east-west way from the site where the river turns. So the beach is transverse. Surveying the physique and land conditions, despite the bank of reservoir is steep, with terrares trending to the river way and leaning to the reservoir, the inclination of 10°025° is small. The inner friction angle of rock frame chamfers is over 350, which is bigger than terrare inclination greatly, and the main frame chamfers intersect 3 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project with valleys vertically. So surveying totally, the reservoir banks are stable, which exist no big landslips and collapses. But in the parcel blocks, some small landslips and collapses will maybe occur for the reverse cranny composition, with little impact to the reservoir. Besides, there aren't mines, cultural relics of exploit values and other important industrial and agricultural facilities, and the two banks of reservoir are high mountains away from immersion. 1.3. Project Impact and Service Scope The project resettlement relates to 8 villager groups in three administration villages in Tongchenghe Village, Ganhe Village and Xiakou Village in Xiakou Town, Nanzhang County, with 2364.7 mu land being requisitioned (including cultivated land 1085.8 mu, garden plots 557.7 mu and woodland 608.6 mu), the relocated house area being 56439.1m2 and attachment structures, scattered fruit trees, 8 enterprise ecs and part special facilities being affected. The project will heighten the flood protection criteria and add the efficient irrigating area of areas upstream reservoir. Besides, it will play an active effect to the economic development of Xiakou Town and Nanzhang County, and to the production and living level of local people. In Yuan'an and Dangyang County downstream Xiakou Reservoir, there are about 15 myrial mu land which are irrigated by the Ju River. In unusual low water years or months, in order to ensure the bumper of agriculture, the Reservoir will add the water for irrigation. Besides, the reservoir accommodation capacity is 0.114 billion m3, so it will heighten the downstream flood protection criteria from intercepting flood of which pledge is under 5% and controlling security vent water as 2000 m3/s. Downstrean Xiakou Reservoir, there are three electricity supply stations of Caiziwan, Jiuzixi and Huangjiawan. After the project is finished, the upstream stations will get obvious benefit for water adjustment, with the electricity supply capacity adding 0.16 myrial KW and annual electricity supply adding 918myrial kW.hEl 1.4. Project Schedule The project construction will be started in 2001 and completed in 2005, with the total construction period being 3 years and 6 months, with the first generating ec put into operation in 3 years and 3 months. According to RAP, the resettlement policies will be established at the end of 2000; Respectively in May and December 2001, land for resettlers' living and production will be fulfilled; In March 2002, house rebuilding of resettlers will be finished and resettlement will be over in May 2002. 1.5. Measures for Reducing Project Impact 1.5.1.Reduction of Land Requisition Construction of the project will unavoidably cause land requisition, housing relocation and inhabitants resettlement, thus affecting the original production and living condition of the local people. In order to reduce land requisition and number of inhabitants to be resettled, efforts have been made by design ec to keep the project site away from the residential quarters and to minimize the quantity of requisitioned land during deciding the water level of the 4 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project reservoir, project layout and selecting the land for temporary construction use. For example: A. In order to reduce the amount of land requisition and resettlers, according to the require of Nanzhang People's Government and basing on no impact on An'kang County, the design ec declined the reservoir normal flood level of Xiakou Water Conservancy and Hydropower Project from 288.13 m to 264.13 m, thus lessened the impact scope and reduced the impact extent of resettlement. Among it, the amount of land requisition reduced over 8300 mu and of resettlers reduced about 6000. B. In order to occupy no or few cultivated land, past of permanent occupied land and temporary land will choose beach land of worse earth and low income and be away off fertile land. 1.5.2. Reduction of the Project Impact on Local Surroundings (A)Efforts have been made in data collection, analysis on the local existing socio- economic condition and preparation of a feasible and practical resettlement action plan suitable for the local conditions, so as to minimize the project impact. (B) Efforts have been made to reinforce internal monitoring and extemal independent monitoring system and establish effective opinion feesdback channels, so as to ensure a timely treatment of the problems occurring in the implementation of the resettlement action plan. (C) During project construction, privilege will be given to use of local construction materials, local transportation and laborers so far as the technical requirement is met, so as to benefit the project affected persons (PAPs). 1.6. Project Design and Examination In March 1993,3Feasibility Study Report of Xiakou Water Conservancy and Hydropower Project3was finished by Hubei Provincial Water Conservancy and Hydropower Investigation & Design Institute, which was supplemented in April 1999 and examined by Provincial Water Conservancy Hall in Wuhan in May. In April 2000,3Prime Design Report of Xiakou Water Conservancy and Hydropower Projecti-lwas finished according to the relational require of the World Bank. 1.7. Preparation for Resettlement 1.7.1.Survey of Affected Inventory Based on the project impact scope, an overall site survey has been made on all the items affected to various extents. 1.7.2. Socio-economic Survey In order to analyze the project impact and prepare a feasible and practical RAP, an overall socio-economic survey, organized by the project owner and participated by the affected county, town, villages and households, has been conducted. The survey was carried out by data statistics and site interview. The survey contents were mainly of the existing socio-economic conditions and the extent of the possible impact induced by the project on the 5 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project local social and economy. 1.7.3. Resettlement Planning The resettlement planning of Xiakou Water Conservancy and Hydropower Project is organized and led by the People's Government of Nanzhang County. ECIDI is responsible for the technical aspect of the planning. The People's Government of Nanzhang County has set up a resettlement planning team, with ECIDI being participant in the planning work. According to the project impact scope and affected inventory, and considering the actual conditions of Nanzhang County, the land-based resettlement will be carried out by re- cultivated. Following the policy of resettlement with production development, the project resettlement should guarantee the basic material condition for living in the resettlement areas as well as the potential for long-term production development, combining the development in the resettlement site with that in the district, so that the resettlers will be willing to remove out and live in a new place, and their living will be rich and reach or exceed the original level. 1.8.

Over 60% of total income was from agriculture (including farming, forestry, pasturage and farming), and one third was from non-agriculture. The non-agriculture income was mainly from outgoing laborers, of whom 1.5% worked in located county, 44.1% worked in other counties and 54.4% worked in other province. Most of them were engaged in the work of service trade, industry, transportation, architecture and so on in the flourishing region of located and other province, and some of them were engaged in trade in other counties or other province. From the above conditions, the service trade and architecture have a large capacity in employment. The project construction will also offer more job opportecies of architecture and service trade, and bring up new income sources for the local people. B. Among the income of non-agriculture, the main was from labor exported, and subsequently from service trade, industry, transportation and architecture. Among it, the labor exported income accounted respectively to 10.5% and 5.1% of the total income, 26.5% and 42.7 of the non-agriculture income of Tongchenghe and Ganhe Village. C. According to average income per capita of sample households, in the 54 sample households, the households whose average income per capita was in the interval of above 4000, 4000-3000, 3000-2000, 2000-1000 and below 1000yuan accounted respectively to 7.41%, 18.52%, 35.18%, 29.63%and 9.26% of the total households. The household of the highest income 5159 yuan was located in the first group of Tongchenghe Village, and the 5 households of the income below 1000 yuan were respectively located in the 1 st, 2nd, 6th and 7th group of Tongchenghe Village, with the lowest 701 yuan located in 7th group. The average income per capita of the sample households in Ganhe Village was between 1000 and 4000yuan. From the survey indexes, the main reason that average income was low was that the households' income were all from planting, and had no other income from second and third industry, labor exported and so on. Analyzing above survey results, in order to minimize the reverse impact of production and living style and custom from resettlement probably, and to restore their intrinsic production and living level as soon as possible, the resettlement plan should take land-based resettlement as the first, and the second and third industry as the second. 13 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project 3. PROJECT IMPACT 3.1. Project Impact Scope 3.1.1.Reservoir A. Design Flood Standards According to the design codes, the design flood standards for inundation treatment of this project are as follows: (a) The backwater level of l-in-20-year flood (5%), for rural resident areas, highways, power facilities, telecommunication facilities and broadcasting and TV facilities; (b) The backwater level of 1-in-5.year flood (20%), for cultivated land, garden plots, and water ponds (c) The normal reservoir water level for woodland. B. Storm Impact Area upstream the Dam Considering storm impact, inhabitants remove line and cultivated (garden) land requisition line adopt respectively the height of 1.Om and 0.5m over normal flood level to ensure security upstream the dam of inconspicuous backwater impact. C. Methods for Reservoir Closing and Scope Establishment Reservoir backwater extreme was established by analyzing the flood backwater level when it was with 0.3m upper normal flood of the same frequency. The extreme section of this reservoir is: inhabitant point is"89+380", land is"89+600". Investigation level is shown as Table 3. 1: " Reservoir Investigation Level of Xiakou Hydropower Station". D. Collapse and Landslip area According to the feasibility study report of Xiakou Hydropower Station: two banks of reservoir are high mountains, and are very steady, so landslip, collapse and inundation may be ignored.

Policy and Principle of Inhabitant Resettlement 4.3.1. Policy The resettlement policy for the resettlement work of YPSPP is: The resettlement work shall be conducted with due respect and consideration to the local tradition and habit in production and living, with full consideration of the willing of the resettlers. Based on that the original production and living mode will not be changed, the effort will be mainly made in resettlement procedures to develop planting production by using the local land resource and exploitable natural resource in the original town (ship) and villages, and concurrently to develop the secondary and tertiary industries in local area. The inhabitant resettlement shall first be based on guaranteeing the basic substance and provide possibility for long-term development. The local land resource shall be fully utilized for development through resettlement, so as to reach the target of long-term prosperity. 39 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project 4.3.2. Principles A. Resettlement planning should be based on the property indexes and compensation standards to improve, or at least to restore the original production and living conditions of the resettlers. B. The resettlement of the project shall be combined with the regional construction, resource development, economic development and environment protection. Considering the actual local conditions, practical and feasible measure shall be worked out for restoring and developing the production and living of the resettlers case by case, meanwhile, some necessary conditions shall be created for self-development of the resettlers. C. Planning should be based on the principle "Beneficial to the production and make the life convenient". D. Construction scale and standards of the resettlement project should be guided by the original scale and standards. Investment should be based on the quota planning. Investment for enlarging the scale, improving standards and future planning should be treated by the local government and relative departments. E. All factors should be taken into consideration. Benefits between the stateOcollectives and individuals should be dealt with properly. F. By adopting the method of paying compensation and granting subsidies in pre-stage and production support in post-stage, and fully using the local natural resources, efforts shall be made to guarantee the resettlers production and living level to reach or exceed the original level before resettlement. 40 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project 5. Resettlement and restoration plan The resettlement plan of Xiakou water conservancy and electricity hinge project, including the reservoir area, permanent project and temporary land, is the under the direct leadership of Peoples Government of Nanzhang county, Hubei province, with East China Survey and Design Institute providing the technical guidance.

Layout Implementation Year According to the overall schedule of the construction of Xiakou Water Conservancy and Electricity Project, i.e. starting from 2001 and finishing in 2004, the emigrant removal is planned to carry out between 2001-2002, so the implementation of the emigrant resettlement is arranged in the year of 2005. 5.3. Layout Principle A. Layout of the emigrant resettlement should be based on the real index of land requisition and removal with accordance to the corresponding compensation and subsidy. B. The emigrant resettlement should practically consider the region construction, resources development, economic development and environmental protection. Adjust measures to local conditions in restoring and developing emigrant production and living, and creating the prerequisites for their self-developing. C. Make up the overall layout in the principle of beneficial to production and convenient to living. The construction scale and standard of the removal project should be based on the original scale and standard. Further investment on enlarging the scale, raising the standard and future layout for the regional development should be solved by the local government and related departments. D. Make overall plans and take all factors into consideration, correctly handling the relations between state, collective and individuals. E. Gradually raise their living standards to the former level or even surpass it, taking measures of prophase compensation and subsidy and anaphase support of reproduction. 5.4. Targets and Tasks 5.4.1. Targets The general goal for the resettlement layout is to find ways for their reproduction, rationally resettle the labor force and improve their production and living standard, not lower than the former level. See table 5.1 for present production and living conditions of scheduled resettlers According to their living standard in 1999, Eighth-Five-Year Plan and Ninth-Five-Year Plan of Nanzhang County and the economic development criterion of ten years layout, the resettlement goal is defined as follows: (1) Per capita grain possession of the resettlers and residents in resettlement area should be no less than 400 kg. (2) Per capita yearly income of the resettlers and residents in resettlement area should be restored to the standard before removal in 1999. (3) Improvements should be made in the infrastructure construction, social welfare, 42 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project natural environment and transportation condition.

Tasks According to the above-mentioned, in the standard year of 1999 the total resettlement population should reach to 977 persons, of which 957 persons belong to the production resettlement. Removal population should reach to 935 persons, of which 857 persons are removed to other villages, while 78 persons are resettled in the same village. According to the population annual accrual rate of 0.35%, the total resettlement population will reach to 1000 persons, of which 978 persons belong to the production resettlement. Removal population will reach to 957 persons, of which 876 persons are removed to other villages, while 81 persons are resettled in the same village. 5.5. Resettlement Principle and Method 5.5.1. Resettlement Principle The general principle: Respect and take care of the local emigrant production, living habits and customs. Take full consideration of their wishes and make no change to their original production and living habit. Make full use of the local land resources and natural resources. Encourage them to engage in the agricultural production with arable land with no need to become a non-agricultural person. Develop the land cultivation with some individuals joining 43 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project their relatives and taking up the secondary and tertiary industry as a supplement. 5.5.2. Resettlement Method A. 876 persons will be resettled in the nearby village of Ganhe, Hansan, Yanluo and Baifu, dealing with the cultivation. B. 124 persons will be resettled in the same village of Ganhe and Xiakou (81 persons of which will be removed), dealing in agricultural production with readjusted land. The compensation fees of the land requisition will be invested in the agricultural production, including the creation of arable land and improvement of middle and low yield land, or develop the tertiary industry providing services for the construction of water power plant. C. The resettlement in secondary and tertiary industry or in the relatives will not be considered at the present stage. Besides, according to the survey of the individual family, 13 persons of 5 families belong to the weak group among the removals. All are weak in intelligence or lonely old men living in Tongchenghe village. In view of the above actual problem, the emigration organization will provide them with labor force and certain fund during the resettlement, helping them with the shortage problem of labor force. The related cost will be listed in the subsidy fund for the weak group of the emigration budget or unpredictable fund if not enough. 5.6. Environmental Capacity Evaluation 5.6.1. Feasibility Evaluation of the Resettlement Area A. Selection of Blue Print and Evaluation Nanzhang is a mountainous and agricultural county where mountain covers 80%, water covers 5% and arable land covers 15% of the total area. According to the survey of land resources of the whole county conducted by Land Administration Bureau in 1999, per capita arable land for the agricultural population in the whole county amounted to only 1.4 mu (1.32 mu for Xiakou town). Per capita garden plots area amounted to 0.157 mu, while in Xiakou town it is 1.64 mu, of which 1.12 mu is orange plots). Thus three ways are discussed for the resettlement. First, eresettlersstay in the same village and build houses to the back of the village with adjusted cultivation land. Second, eresettlerswill resettle on the waste land in Jiuji town. Third, part of the eresettlerswill resettle in the adjusted land from the nearby village of Nanzhang and Xiakou or the waste land, but most of them will concentrate in the Nanzhang office in Xiakou town to build residential houses. First, in Tongchenghe Village, at present, farmland per capita is 1.0 mu and grain per capita is 586 kilograms, which are far below the average level of the whole county and town. But large tracts of farmland are to be requisitioned and communications are hare to get to. If land readjustment in the village is implemented for resettlement, the remaining farmland per capita is only 0.4 mu and grain per capita is 235 kilograms, which is not self-containing (it is generally believed that per capita grain possession of 300 kilograms is self-containing). 44 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project Therefore, resettlement in the locality is hard to restore the production and living level. Second, if resettlersare to be relocated in Jiuji Town to reclaim land for central resettlement, it is feasible to restore the production and living level. But according to the investigation of the removed households, most of resettlersare reluctant to move away. Third, in the neighboring villages of Xiakou Town land readjustment and land reclamation are to be implemented for scattered resettlement. In the neighboring villages, including Ganhe, Hansan, Yanluo, Baifu and Xiakou, farmland per capita is more than I mu, except Xiakou Village where non- agricultural economy is most developed of the above-mentioned villages. With rich land resources and convenient communications, the space for the development of agricultural production is big enough. Belonging to Xiakou Town, resettlersand households in the resettlement area are familiar with each other and have the same mode of production and way of living. Therefore, they can live in harmony while social contradictions and discrimination against resettlersare non-existent. B. Wishes of Resettlers and Residents in the Resettlement Area According to the interviews and talks with resettlersand residents in the resettlement area, the plan of scattered resettlement in the neighboring villages of Xiakou Town has received the common consent of the resettler. They believed that the resettlement in the town could maintain mode of production, way of living, customs and social relationship of resettler. The communications will become convenient. The resettlement area is higher than the reservoir area at altitude. Living standard in the resettlement area is higher than that in the reservoir area. The relocation can restore or raise the production and living standard of resettler. As far as the residents in the resettlement area are concerned, the villages in the resettlement area are situated along the lower reaches of Xiakou reservoir. Thus, every year it is hard to guarantee that all of the farmland will be irrigated especially in the draught season. The flooding often resulted in drop in grain production and reduction in grain output. After the project is completed, however, the resettlement area will become a beneficiary of the project. First, the standard of flood control can be raised for the lower reaches of the reservoir, especially the resettlement area. Second, effective irrigated area in the resettlement area will be increased so as to raise the economic benefits of the original land. Besides, the construction of the project will bring about the development of the local economy and provide the people in the resettlement area with a rare opportecy for development. Therefore, residents in the resettlement area believed that they would be the beneficiaries of the project. There are rich land resources in the villages with large per capita farmland possession. The investment of resettlerswill not only restore or raise their own production and living level but also promote and develop the economy of the resettlement area while improving the local environment. In short, resettlersare welcome to settle down here. In conclusion, land readjustment and reclamation in the neighboring villages of Xiakou Town are determined for scattered resettlement. Resettlersare willing to be relocated and welcome to settle down in the resettlement area. Therefore, resettlersand residents in the resettlement area are satisfied with this plan. This plan conforms to the will of the resettlersand residents in the resettlement area. This plan is feasible. 5.6.2. General Information of the Resettlement Area Xiakou Town is bounded by Nantan, Yuan'an and Baokang along Juhe River. It has mild temperature, plenty of rain and a number of waste hills. Its good soil conditions are suitable for the development of such special products as orange, tea and silkworm. It is a market town 45 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project of border trade. By the end of 1999, the total population of the whole town reached 13,829 belonging to Han nationality, among which 6941 ones are able-bodied persons. The total area of farnland was 18,218 mu, among which paddy land covered an area of 6,447 mu. Per capita cultivated land area was 1.32 mu. Since the reform and opening-up, taking advantage of the local natural dominance, the town has developed the green enterprise base occupying an area of 30,000 mu, among which orange gardens covered an area of 20,000 mu and tea gardens covered an area of 5,000 mu. Orange production has turned Xiakou Town into a town known for its oranges. Communications in Xiakou Town are convenient. There are three major highways. One is Xunxia Highway from Xiakou Town to Xunjian Town and Nanxun Highway to Chengguan of Nanzhang County with a total length of 135 kilometers.

Ganhe, Hansan, Yanluo, Baifu and Xiakou as resettlement area are all located in the seat of Xiakou Town. Adjacent to the seat of Xiakou Town, Xiakou Village has developed non- agricultural economy. Other villages are all engaged in farm production for economic crops such as grain, orange and oil plant. There are rich land resources in these villages. In the past ten years, orange production has developed very fast and every household has orange garden. Revenue from oranges is the important source of domestic economic income. With mature techniques, orange production has become a scale economy and had marketing channels. If new varieties of oranges are developed or old varieties are modified, they will sell well and their economic benefits will be greatly raised.

Volumetric Standard for Resettlement Area Relying on land, volumetric standard for resettlement area is that in accordance with 0.7- mu land per capita (paddy: dry is 2: 1), grain ration, foodstuff and seed can be guaranteed. Taking the original per capita land possession of resettler, the actual situation of the whole county and the whole town into consideration, per capita land area should be no less than 0.7 mu (paddy: dry is 2: 1), up to the standard before the resettlement, and per capita grain possession should be no less than 400 kilograms. According to the stipulations of Standards for Town Planning of the People s Republic of China and Enforcing Approaches for Land Management of Hubei Province, and taking the current level of resettlersand the actual situation of residents in the resettlement area into consideration, the total area of house construction and vegetable fields around the houses: 0.6 mu per household in Xiakou Village (since land is scarce in Xiakou Village adjacent to the seat of Xiakou Town. This standard is the same as that for the current residents), more than 0.6 mu per household in Ganhe, Hansan, Yanluo and Baifu. 5.6.4. Volumetric Analysis of Resettlement Area Group 1, 2, 5, 6 and 7 in Tongchenghe Village and group 2 and 3 in Ganhe Village will be affected by land requisition. A few amount of farmland in Ganhe Village will be requisitioned. 47 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project Households of Tongchenghe Village will move away and those of Ganhe Village will be resettled in the locality. See table 5.2 for data on land, farmland, garden plots and unused land of Ganhe, Hansan, Yanluo, Baifu and Xiakou Village.

Xiakou Village temporarily plan to resettle 72 people from 16 households from Tongchenghe Village Group I and 5 people from one group of Xiakou Village. During the period, the resettlement objects can be adjusted. Primarily, the objects will be households whose incomes are mainly non-farming incomes. The resettlement will be conducted on the basis of self-willingness. The village plans to build 20 mu paddy land and 100 mu orange yard, and to rebuild 90 mu low productive land. -When the 5 people of one family from Xiako Village come to the group, they only need to be settled for their living without for there jobs. -The 72 people of 16 households from Tongchenghe Village Group I will be resettled in group 8,9,10 in Xiakou Village. The residential area will be concentrated in the planning zone in the small town of Xiako Village Group 10. The production and land using planning will be as follows: to build paddy land 20 mu, to rebuild low productive land in Group 8 and 9 90 mu, to build orange yard 100 mu and to readjust land from Group 8 and 9. The above-mentioned land needed for the living of the resettlersfrom different villages will be obtained mainly by making use of waste land in the villages in a way to resettle people scattered within villages but comparatively concentrated in groups. The other part of the land will occupy the village planning land reserved by the villages.

Land recruitment and dismantlement effect analysis Because of land recruitment and dismantlement, the previous production system within the effect has been destroyed and the local area has been affected. Firstly, hundreds of people have lost material conditions on which they rely on and have to move to look for living outlet as a result of resource loss. Secondly, the farm land recruitment has caused crop loss of 2 million kilograms annually. However, the reservoir area of the Xiakou Reservoir, which belongs to remote mountainous area, develops relatively slowly in economy, long being 53 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project limited by natural condition. At the same time, there are limitations in farming, such as scarce in farm land per capita, low land quality. Therefore, the production and living level are relatively low in the past. The project which gives the resettlersa good opportecy to rebuild their production system and society brings full play the potential of the land resources according to the resettlement plan including building field, land and rebuilding medium, low productive land. Following the occupying farm land compensation policy and the principle of "plow as much as occupy", the project makes compensation for the farn land lost, achieving balance between the covering and compensation. According to the resettlement planning, the resettlerswill be resettled in an area, which has comparatively good natural, transportation condition and social environment. In addition, the resettlerswill obtain favorable offers and supports in policy, technology, capital and materials and return to their previous level as soon as possible. 5.9. Resettlement Planning for Country Resettler 5.9.1. Production resettlement planning This project need to resettle 978 resettlersin production, all resettling in farming if there is enough land, mainly to develop planting. Among all the resettler, the 863 people from Tongchenghe Village will all move out to scatter in Ganhe, Hansan, Yangluo, Baifu and Xiakou. The rest 115 people from Ganhe Village will be resettled in their own village. Because the resettlement area and the area affected will be the same area, the types of crops and the farming policy will remain unchanged. The planting of crops will mostly follow the "Two Ripe" System, that is wheat (oil)-rice or wheat-corn, mainly cereals. Yard production is mainly orange development, the operation form being contracting to people or family operation. In the beginning of the resettlement, cereals can be planted in the yard so that resettler' households can increase their incomes. A.

The total investment in building up 428-mu paddy land, 180-mu dry land and 1725.mu garden plots, renovating 600-mu low-yield farmland will reach 6,048,000 yuan included in land requisition compensation. B. Recovery Measures for Production Resettlement To restore and develop the production and living of resettler, specific measures to be adopted are as follows: a. If there is labor export project in the county, priority should be given to resettler. b. In the initial stage of resettlement, living subsidies will be offered in the first five years at 320 yuan annually for new farmland yields low and gains less and new orange gardens gain no profits. If scattered resettlement in village groups are carried out 60 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project and new and old land are share by resettlersand local residents, the subsidies will be shared by the whole village or village group. c. As for new farmland, agricultural tax and state purchase quotas should be exempted in the first three years. d. The quality and quantity of crops cultivated by resettlersshould be raised steadily to increase their economic income. e. During the construction of the project, resettlerscan be organized to participate in the construction in order to raise their own domestic income. Besides the above-mentioned, the people's government of Nanzhang County has drawn up preferential policies. See attachment 4: Notice on Preferential Policies for Relocation in Xiakou Water Conservancy and Hydroelectric Pivotal Project. In short, after the resettlement, for resettlersper capita farmland possession (excluding vegetable fields at 0.3 mu per household) and per capita arable garden plots can be guaranteed up to or above the former average level. For residents in resettlement area, though per capita farmland possession after the resettlement is below the former level, per capita garden plots possession is raised to guaranteed the total balance. Therefore, upon the prerequisite of keeping up the production and living level of residents in resettlement area, resettlershave more productive materials than before the resettlement. Since the land in resettlement area is better than that in reservoir area, compensation and subsidy should be offered in the initial stage and developing lines and measures will render support in the latter stage. The production and living level of resettlerscan be restored or bypass the previous level. 5.9.2. Planning for Residential Reconstruction As for house construction, the reserved land will be used. Houses will be constructed on waste hillsides with the method of in-group concentration and in-village dispersion. In accordance with planning of land quotas in villages and towns in Hubei Province, the standard for living land of resettlersincluding roads, drying ground, vacant plots and small tract of vegetable field is determined as no less than 0.6 mu per household. Land requisition fees for living land will be included in resettler' housestead compensation. Site leveling fees will be included in basic facilities compensation. a. In Ganhe Village, 216 people comprising 51 households will be resettled, including 140 people comprising 34 households from group 7 of Tongchenghe Village and 76 people comprising 17 households from group 3 of Ganhe Village. Residences will be located on waste hillsides. The living land standard of 0.6 mu per household is equal to that of residents in resettlement area. b. In Hansan Village, 311 people comprising 75 households from group 2, 5 and 6 of Tongchenghe Village will be resettled. 92 people comprising 22 households will be resettled in group 1, 2 and 3. Residences will be located on two sides of the roads in group 2. 94 people comprising 23 households will be resettled in group 4. 61 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project Residences will be located in 18-mu collective dry land adjacent to the village committee. 125 people comprising 30 households will be resettled in group 5 and 6. Residences will be located in 21-mu vacant plots. c. In Yanluo Village, 165 people comprising 43 households will be resettled, including 114 people comprising 31 households from group 2 of Tongchenghe Village and 51 people comprising 12 households from group 7 of Tongchenghe Village. Residences will be located on two sides of Nanyuan Highway or on waste hillsides of Yanluo Village. The living land standard of 0.6 mu per household is equal to that of residents in resettlement area. d. In Baifu Village, 188 people comprising 43 households will be resettled, including 141 people comprising 32 households from group 1 of Tongchenghe Village and 47 people comprising 11 households from group 7 of Tongchenghe Village. Residences will be located in vacant plots. The living land standard of 0.6 mu per household is equal to that of residents in resettlement area. e. In Xiakou Village, 77 people comprising 17 households will be resettled. Residences will be located in the planned area of the small market town in group 10 of Xiakou Village. The living land is planned to be 10.2 mu at 0.6 mu per household. A. Planning of Basic Facilities a. Site Leveling Scattered resettlement will be adopted in the project. Houses of resettlerscan be constructed in the reserved land in some resettlement villages. If without the reserved land, houses of resettlerscan be constructed on the leveled waste hillsides. b. Public Project As for water supply, every household will dig wells or get water from springs. As for power supply, the power supply of every village can satisfy the demand of households to be resettled. 220V electric lines will connect every relocated household. c. Broadcasting and Television Resettlement area and the affected area both have no broadcasting. Television receiving facilities of resettlerscan be reinstalled in resettlement area. Television receiving facilities in resettlement area can be utilized at 100 yuan per household. B. Construction of Resettler' Houses Taking into consideration resettler' living habits and agricultural requirement, resettler' houses should be left over with development space. Resettlerstake responsibility for house dismantlement and construction. The government will offer subsidies by replacement price according to resettler' house construction and area (subsidies for various houses are based on replacement price, and subsidies for houses of the same structure will be varied in line with the quality of houses). Subsidies will be delivered in installment according to material 62 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project preparation and construction procedure. Since households to move away have difficulty in commuting between resettlement area and former residences in the process of house construction, migrant management office will offer subsidies for resettlersto secure interim houses. Resettlerscan go to relatives or rent houses. Lump-sum subsidies at 100 yuan per capita will be issued for resettler. 5.9.3. Management of Resettlement Area A. Administrative Management of Resettler Since scattered resettlement is adopted in village groups, administrative management will remain unchanged, except that resettlersof Tongchenghe Village who are now under Baiyun office agency will be transferred to Xiakou office agency. Villages in resettlement area are all under governance of Xiakou office agency. B. Implementation of Management of Resettler For the implementation of resettlement planning, under leadership of Nanzhang County Project Construction Headquarters, personnel will relevant county departments have formed the Nanzhang County Migrant Bureau to make resettlement policies and take charge of relocation as well as propaganda, mobilization and organization of resettlement. The migrant bureau is also a major channel for resettlersto report problems. The bureau should collect advises and problems of resettlersin time and report them to higher-level government office or competent department while in time responding to resettler. C. Public Service Resettlersto move away will share the former public facilities in resettlement area. If public facilities are to be extended due to the relocation, subsidies will be granted. 5.9.4. Temporary Land Use for the Construction Article 57, Law of Land Management of the People s Republic of China, stipulates that if construction project and geological survey will temporarily use state-owned land or collective land, land user should sign a contract of temporary land use with the relevant land administrative department, country collective economic organization or village committee, and pay temporary land use compensation according to the contract at the same time. Temporary land user using land in line with the rights stipulated in the contract should not construct permanent buildings. Duration of temporary land use should not exceed two years. Temporary land use compensation of the project includes land loss compensation and restoration fees. Land loss compensation will be offered at 300 yuan per mu annually (in the project flood land is temporarily used, of which the arable soil is only 20 centimeters thick, annual profit is no more than other farmland so that some flood land is let go out of cultivation). The total compensation of 162,720 yuan will be offered in the first four years at 10,530 and 30,150 yuan for Ganhe and Xiakou Village respectively. The total output or income from the land to be temporarily used will be compensated. The land owners whose land is to be temporarily used can participate in the project construction or go out to work. The construction ec will take charge of temporary land restoration. The restoration fees are set at 5000 yuan per mu, amounting to 678,000 yuan. Thus, the temporary land use compensation totals 840,720 yuan. 63 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project Although according to the stipulation of the land law the duration of temporary land use should not exceed two years, the water conservancy infrastructure construction has a long period. Therefore, the duration of temporary land use in the construction runs in a long time. The ownership of the temporary land can not be transferred and such land should be brought under cultivation again by law after service time expires. 5.10. Reconstruction Planning for Rural Production and Living Facilities If needed, rural production and living facilities will be restored. If not needed, rational economic compensation will be granted. 5.11. Removal and Reconstruction Planning for Countryside Enterprises, Institutions and Shops In Tongchenghe Village affected by the project, enterprises and institutions will be reconstructed in the land left over by the relocation of group 6. Economic compensation will be offered for their buildings, suspended operation and removal. When individual shops move away, they will be relocated in the reaches of Xiakou Village suitable for businesses. Economic compensation will be offered for their buildings, suspended production and removal. 5.12. Restoration Planning for Special Facilities 5.12.1. Reconstruction Planning for Roads in the Reservoir Area A new highway will be constructed above the flooding line. 5.12.2. Restoration Planning for Transmission Facilities Two 50KVA transformers will be affected by the relocation. The flooded 1OkV electric lines with a length of 7 kilometers will be reconstructed. 5.13. Planning for Reservoir Bottom Cleaning Xiakou reservoir has a water surface area of 4.5 square meters. A population of 931 is living under the flooding line, with houses occupying an area of 56148.4 square meters. In order to eliminate hidden dangers before the reservoir is put into operation, cleaning to the reservoir bottom must be implemented before the reservoir retains water, including building cleaning, sanitation cleaning, grave cleaning and forest cleaning. A. Cleaning Planning for Buildings Buildings and annexes should be dismantled. Walls except mud ones will be bulldozed and leveled. Useless and buoyant materials should be destroyed on the spot. Transmission, post and telecommunication and broadcasting facilities as well as other buildings and annexes should be dismantled if they will hinder safe operation and development of the reservoir. Equipment and materials should be transported outside the reservoir. After the cleaning, the remnants of large buildings should be not higher than 0.5 meters. Wells and cellars should be plugged, filled or covered. B. Sanitation and Anti-epidemic Cleaning Planning 64 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project Sanitation and anti-epidemic cleaning should be implemented toward manure pits, stock pens, toilets and rubbish in the reservoir area. Contaminants should be delivered outside the reservoir or under the blazing sun for a long time. The pits should be disinfected with quicklime at one kilogram per square meter. Sewage pits should be leveled with clean soil. C. Cleaning Planning for Graves Graves in fifteen years should be relocated or disposed of locally. Every vault should be disinfected with lkg bleaching powder. Local customs should be taken into account whether to relocate graves over fifteen years. The graves of people who died of infectious disease and burials of ill livestock should be given special cleaning. D. Forest Cleaning Planning Before the reservoir retains water, garden plots, lumber forests and fruit trees should be logged and transported outside the reservoir. The remaining trunks should be no higher than 0.3 mneters. Firewood forests should be logged and transported outside the reservoir. Such buoyant materials as branches and withered trees should be bumed on the spot or buried before the reservoir retains water. 5.14. Living Subsidies of Transition Duration It is a procedure from removal to resettlement. To guarantee the smooth removal and resettlement, living subsidies will be issued for resettler. According to the population of production resettlement, every migrant will be offered 600 yuan of subsidy. The total subsidies of transition duration will amount to 586,800 yuan. 5.15. Plan for Technical Training 5.15.1. Training of Migrant Cadre In March 2000, the personnel with Nanzhang County Project Construction Headquarters and Migrant Bureau received the training given by immigration experts with East China Research Institute of Survey and Design. During the training, the personnel did inspection tours of the domestic projects such as the resettlement of Tongbo pumped-storage power station and Shanxi water conservancy pivotal project and learned their successful experience and lessons. The inspection tours have laid a positive foundation for the resettlement work of the project. In April 2000, during the course of the survey of social economy, the verification of quotas in kind and resettlement planning, East China Research Institute of Survey and Design offered spot guidance for the related personnel. 5.15.2. Production Skills Training for Resettler In the second half of 2001 and the first half of 2002, technical training of orange production will be given in the resettler' villages. The county govermment will offer spot technical consulting and guidance in the fields. The technical training for resettlersis free of charge. 5.16. Residual Support for Resettler In the light of Regulations on Land Requisition and Resettlement in Large and Medium- Sized Water Conservancy and Hydroelectric Project Construction and No. 526 Plan and Construction of 1996, residual support fund will be set up to help resettlersdevelop production and restore and promote the production as soon as possible. Budget estimate will not be 65 Hubei Small Hydropower Development Project conducted for the cost, which is to be included in generating cost. 5.17. Investment in Resettlement 5.17.1. Brief Account Resettlersin Tonchenghe Village affected by the project will move away to be resettled. Their land compensation, part of which will belong to the village collective, will be expended for production resettlement in resettlement area. As to those who will not move away or be resettled in the local village, their land compensation will be expended in production and living of the people in the village. Other costs will be calculated in line with the design specifications. 5.17.2. Budget Estimate of the Investment In accordance with the resettlement plan by the people's government of Nanzhang County, the static gross investment for the resettlement planning (the influence of the flooding, permanent projects and temporary land use in the construction) of the project totals 30,437,500 yuan, not including tax. It strikes a balance with the budget estimate of land requisition compensation for resettlersin Xiakou water conservancy and hydroelectric pivotal project.

With thorough investigation, the evaluation will be done by both sample survey and quick evaluation. Typical samples (affected households and ecs) will be selected. The evaluation indexes corresponding to different affected objects will be established; and qualified resettlement experts will be invited to determine the weighted factors by "back to back" method. After the indexes being non-dimensionally treated by referring to the latest research output regarding living quality at home and abroad, all survey results will be analyzed and compared. ECIDI will also carry out the following activities. a. Resettlers' Living Standards Survey Conducting overall base-line survey for this project and collecting the base-line data on production and living of the samples (the initial sampling will be in random way). The production level and living standard will be investigated one or two times in a year to monitor the variation in the samples' production level and living standard. The method of periodical survey, random interviews and site observation will be adopted to obtain the required 103 Hubei Smafl Hydropower Development Project information. With such information, statistics, analysis and evaluation are carried out. The living standard survey list is composed of various indexes which are used to measure the production level and living standards, and the similar indexes are used to reflect the dynamic changes before and after the resettlement. Whether the designed indexes practicably reflect the changes in resettlers' production and living will be checked in the base line survey. These indexes will be modified according to the actual conditions so as to ensure that the obtained information can fully and practicably reflect resettlers' production and living quantitatively and qualitatively. Sampling scale: resettler: 10%; sample village by land requisition: 30%; enterprise ecs: 30%; private stores: 30%. b. Public Consultation By participating in the public consultation held by the village and township, ECIDI will evaluate the effect of public participation and cooperation of the resettlers in preparation and implementation of the resettlement action plan. These activities will be continued during and after the resettlement implementation. c. Resettlers' Opinions ECIDI will often visit the resettlement offices in each town and county to collect opinions from the resettlers, and interview the resettlers who have the complaints. ECIDI will timely transfer the opinions and requests from the affected individuals and collective enterprises together with suggestions for improvement, so that the resettlement can be more smoothly and effectively implemented. d.
