... See More + Some of the negative impacts and mitigation measures include: it is necessary to minimize performance of works on railway construction which may cause the necessity of involuntary resettlement; when carrying out construction and rehabilitation works damage to houses and objects of infrastructure should be minimized; due to careful selection of necessary plots all the best should be done to minimize acquisition of productive and private lands and to avoid acquisition of lands where people live and carry out business activity; during designing acquisition of lands on permanent basis should be minimized; temporary negative impact on lands should be minimized by accurate implementation of construction/rehabilitation works; it is necessary to take additional measures on informing of households to minimize damage to available crops and fruits; it is necessary to make all efforts to use more public lands for construction of new railway Angren-Pap, and also to the most limit construction and repair works in irrigated plots. In case it appears impossible to avoid works in the territory of irrigated plots outside the settlements, damage to fields, crops and plantings should be compensated; the amount of compensations to households for the damage caused to crops and trees, will be determined basing on retail market prices; and households should have opportunity to declare their claims and to undertake actions directed on receiving of compensations.
