... See More + Negative impacts include: loss of land acquisition, loss of asset, loss of structure, loss of trees and crops, loss of income, and loss of livelihood. Mitigation measures include: tenants of business structures who produce their tenancy agreements will have their interest assessed as a secondary compensation. The extent of their interest in the property will be assessed and paid for; the normal practice of valuation is to use business accounts to determine extent of loss. However, in this country small businesses do not make their records available to valuers because they fear that the information will be passed onto the Internal Revenue Service. So valuers are forced to make a general estimate of how many businesses make and use it to assess extent of loss. It is because of this that the LVB in other situations has added five percent (5 percent) of full replacement cost of property as the disturbance due businesses. Shop owners in a given structure have to be paid a share of the disturbance allowance that is paid as compensation apart from the money due them from the landlord, which includes unused portions of goodwill and other payments. Goodwill in this setting does not apply to money paid for using the name or premises of a previous business; and resettlers should be integrated socially and economically into host communities so that adverse impacts on host communities are minimized. The best way of achieving this integration is for resettlement to be planned in areas benefiting from the project and through consultation with the future hosts.
