1 General Information about the Project

Guangdong Component of IWW4 Project of China consists of three sub-projects,

and they are: Lao-long-hu Waterway Regulation Works, Xiniu Navigation Complex

on Lianjiang River and Waterway Regulation Works on middle reaches of the

Beijiang River (from Shaoguan to Zhongyuan).

1.1 Background of the Project

To build waterways network in Pearl River Delta (PRD) and waterways in

mountain areas is to meet the strategic demands of CPC Guangdong Committee and

Guangdong Provincial Government to take the lead in realizing modernization in

PRD regions and to accelerate economic development from east to west and from

south to north. During the period of the eighth and ninth five-year plan, waterways

network in PRD with the major waterway channel on Xijiang River as the principal

axis was emphasized for construction. Till the beginning of the tenth five-year plan,

skeleton of the waterways network in PRD with "three horizontal and three vertical"

has been basically come into being. During the period of the tenth five-year plan, to

start extending these waterways to neighboring regions is the external demand to

develop overwater transportation. Waterway on middle reaches of the Beijiang River

(from Shaoguan to Zhongyuan), Lao-long-hu waterway and Xiniu Navigation

Complex on Lianjiang River are infrastructures linking overwater communications

from mountain areas to seaside regions and from fully economy developed regions to

less developed regions. The execution of the construction works will cause

unsubstitutable effects on improving shipping conditions in PRD and investment

environment in mountain areas of Guangdong, and accelerating economic

development in mountain areas of middle and north Guangdong. It has been many

times for delegates to Provincial People's Congress in Guangdong and Guangdong

Provincial Committee of Chinese People Political Consultative Conference to bring

forward proposals on regulating waterways. The project has received great attention

and strong support from Ministry of Communications, Guangdong Provincial

Development Planning Commission, Department of Public Finance, and Department

of Communications. No house dismantling & moving and migrants moving are

needed in the three works, and only little land acquisition is needed, which results in

small impacts of land acquisition, dismantling & moving, low costs and high efficacy.

1.2 General Situation of the Project

Lao-long-hu Waterway Regulation Works:

Lao-long-hu waterway locates in Xinhui city, consisting of north section of Laolao

brook, Longquan Sea, tail of Babao waterway and tail of Hukeng waterway. It is

water route of economy linking mainstream of the Xijiang River and the Tanjiang

River Yinzhou Lake, long as 16km, flowing into the sea from Yinzhou Lake. The

waterway is one of the most important horizons of the "three horizontal and three

vertical" in the Total Layout and Programming of Guangdong Component of IWW.

It's designed to be built as a National Third-Class Inner Waterway, open to navigate

seagoing ships of tonnage of 1000 tons.

The major characteristic of Lao-long-hu Waterway is its natural conditions of deep

water. On the whole, its 5-meter isobath has run through, and the riverbed is stable,

but it has a narrow riverway. Major implementation of project's works includes:

dredging up, straightening crooks, blasting reefs, retaining riverbank, navigation mark

and communications works, etc. It's estimated that an investment of about RMB

216,116,600 is needed.

Please see table 1 about the basic information about the works.

After completion of Lao-long-hu Waterway Regulation Works, passengers or

cargos ships of 1000 tons level can enter Yinzhou Lake (also named Yamen

waterway). It is about 21.34km long from Hukengkou to Yamen (Yanan). Yamen

waterway is the biggest waterway entrance to sea in the west of PRD, also one of

major entrances in the Tanjing River drainage area and on lower reaches of the

Xijiang River. Yinzhou Lake has very good conditions of water area, with a width of

1200-2000 meters, and keeps natural depth of 8.0-14.0 meters in long term. For its

2

large width of water area and silent wave, it is looked as a perfect waterway to

navigate river steamers or seagoing ships of high tonnage, as well as a good route into

ports for seagoing ships of ten thousands tons level in Xinhui harbor. Three km up

from Hukengkou, there locates Xinhui Tianma harbor, which was designed and built

at a throughput scale of 860 thousand tons, and a docking capacity of 5000 tons. The

docking capacity is programmed as 10 thousand tons level. Therefore, it will decrease

costs of social transportation and generate enormous economic benefits and social

interests to regulate Lao-long-hu waterway, and to connect central zone of PRD and

natural seaside harbors.

Xiniu Navigation Complex on the Lianjiang River

Xiniu Navigation Complex lies in the river section between upriver and

downriver Liangzhou, which is 3.5km upper from Xiniu Town Yingde City on main

stream of the Lianjiang River, and it is the twelfth rundle in the program of trenching

works on The Lianjiang River. Water level on upper reaches of the complex works is

linked up with that on lower reaches of the Jiaqiaoshi complex in Hanguang Town,

and water level on its lower reaches is linked up with that on tail section of Feilai

gorge irrigation complex on the Beijiang River. There is about 12.17km of backwater

in reservoir, and about 8,557 km2 of drainage area is under the control of Xiniu

complex. In many years, the annual average runoff area reached 314m2 /S, and the

annual average quantity of runoff reached 137.5million m 3. The project is an

integrated whole used mainly for shipping, as well as generating electricity, irrigating,

breeding and tourism. Xiniu waterway and ship gates reach class VI, open to navigate

ships of 100 tons level. The ship gates are designed totally to allow ships of two

million tons level to pass through in a whole year. The electricity-generating station is

designed to have an installed capacity of 6400KW, and to generate electricity of

35,960,000 KWH in a whole year. Totally, an investment of about RMB 279,128,600

is needed in this project, and planned to be completed in three years.

Waterway Regulation Works on Middle Reaches of the Beijiang River

The project has a total length of 184km, and a National Fifth-Class Inner

Waterway is planned to be built, open to navigate ships of 300 tons level. Scopes

related in the regulation works include such four counties or cities as Shaoguan,

Qujiang, Yingde and Qingxin. According to natural conditions of riverway, it is

divided into such three sections as follow:

a) Section from Shaoguan to Yingde, 102km long, is attributed to rivers in

3

mountain areas.

b) Section from Yingde to Feilai Gorge complex, 52km long, belongs to Feilai

gorge reservoir.

c) Section from Feilai Gorge complex to Qingyuan, is 30km long.

Major measures for Waterway Regulation Works on middle reaches of the

Beijiang River include: building dams, dredging waterways, bombing down reefs and

retaining riverbanks. Along the whole riverway, there are 41 dangerous shoals

needing to be regulated, 226 dams of 46.71km long in total needing to be built.

Besides, earthwork of 60. 47 X 104m3 needs to be dredged and there are 3 reefs to be

bombed down. There is no migrating works needed in this project at all. Except that a

little state-owned construction-used land and wasteland along river beaches needs to

be taken into land acquisition, no cultivated land in village needs to be acquired in the

project.

1.3 Regions Benefiting from the Project

To regulate Lao-long-hu waterway will be of advantage to full play the integral

advantages on shipping on Xijiang River, and will promote joint transportation

through river and sea and will benefit the whole drainage area along the Xijiang River.

Nowadays, shipping on Xijiang River is limited mainly in materials exchange among

hinterland, only adapted for introverted and occluded economy. After completion of

the project, former transportation situation will take radical changes, and joint

transportation through river and sea will be realized to promote materials exchange

between hinterland and foreign sides, and to promote economic exuberance in

hinterland.

Xijiang is the second biggest navigation river in our country, only inferior to

Yangtse River. It runs 2214km long, across such four provinces or regions as Yunnan,

Guizhou, Guangxi and Guangdong. In hinterland along the Xijiang River, the climate

is mild and there is enough precipitation rain falls, abundant resource of water power

and mineral. In drainage area along the river, it is abundant in such mine resources as

coal, phosphor, sulfur and aluminum, as well as abundant timber, which will be

carried down the river and exported from Yinzhou Lake harbor; and, imported

materials can be transferred to regions in drainage area along the river. Not only can

the project accelerate economic development in Xinhui city and migration towns

nearby for improving Communications, but also it can promote economic

4

development in drainage area along the Xijiang and the Beijiang River.

Lao-long-hu waterway regulation works will bring most benefits to Xinhui city.

Taking advantages of conditions as a river port and migration hometown, Xinhui city

is dedicating itself to develop port economy, using ports to drive economic and social

development of the whole city. Construction of the waterway will facilitate materials

transfer through Yinzhou Lake port which is planned in the program, and take full use

of Yinzhou Lake as a deep water port, as well as it will promote the port construction

of Yinzhou Lake. Then, the economic hinterland along Yinzhou Lake port will be

extended to the whole drainage area of the Xijiang and Beijing River. Construction of

the waterway will make Yinzhou Lake port be an important one in PRD, even in

seaside regions of south China. If the communication between Yinzhou Lake and the

Xijiang River relies only on Jiangmen waterway which is open to navigate ships of

500 tons level or on Lao-long-hu waterway which is still of low standard now, the

function of Yinzhou Lake as a deep water port will be restricted, and the distance of

transportation will be increased, which results in heavier transportation costs for

shipping departments. Construction of the waterway will reduce the shipping distance

among Hong Kong, Macau and PRD by 40km, so 80km for a total voyage.

Regions benefiting from Xiniu works will be drainage area of The Lianjiang

River which is in poor mountain areas of north Guangdong. Total area of the drainage

area is about 10061 km2, and 77% of it is hill and mountain areas. Major hinterland of

the drainage area is Lianzhou city, Yangshan County and Yingde city. The area can be

radiated up to Guangdong Lianshan, Liannan County and abutting counties of

Guangxi and Hunan. Climate of areas mentioned above can be attributed to a

semi-tropical one. It is mild and has plenty of precipitation rain falls and abundant

natural resources as a base of woods and mines resources in Guangdong province, but

it is in great lake of communications infrastructures. For overlapping hills and

mountains and obstacles in communications, economic resources are not in effective

and full exploration and use in long term, which dropped local economy behind and

resulted in low living standards. Among these areas, Yangshan, Liannan, Lianshan and

Yingde are the most famous counties in Guangdong province for their poverty, with

large amount of depressed villages and needy people. Many of these households have

net average incomes below the poverty line of RMB1000. Therefore, to construct

Xiniu navigation complex works, to realize the drenching and navigation along the

whole side of The Lianjiang River, and to take into consideration the comprehensive

5

utilization of water resources such as flood prevention, electricity generation and

irrigation works, will have very important meanings in constructing mountain areas

and changing visage of these depressed regions. The other eleven rundles on The

Lianjiang River have been drenched long ago, and Xiniu navigation complex is the

last rundle in drenching exploitation on The Lianjiang River. So, to construct Xiniu

navigation complex works will increase profits from investing in regulation works of

eleven navigation complexes on upper reaches, Feilai Gorge complex works on lower

reaches and waterway regulation works on lower reaches of Beijiang River.

Regions benefiting directly from Waterway Regulation Works on middle reaches

of the Beijiang River are Shaoguan and Qingyuan City, while Zhaoqing, Foshan and

Guangzhou City will benefit indirectly from the works. There are abundant resources

of mines and forests in drainage area along the Beijiang River. All through the ages,

Beijiang River is a main water transportation artery communicating mountain areas of

north Guangdong with PRD. Toward west from outfall on lower reaches of the

Beijiang River and up long the Xijiang River, locate such cities as Zhaoqing and

Wuzhou. The waterway regulation works from Qingyuan on the lower reaches of

Beijiang River, to Sanshui outfall has been ongoing since 1996, and now it has been

finished on the whole. In this way, ships of 300 tons level can reach main ports in

PRD directly from Qingyuan, so there are obvious benefits of shipping. If to continue

to regulate waterway from Shaoguan on the middle reaches of the Beijiang River to

Qingyuan, and to make the whole line of 258km on the Beijiang River reach

Fifth-class standard of Inner Waterway, will allow ships of 300 tons level to navigate

through in the whole year. If such the three works as regulation works of eleven

navigation complexes on The Lianjiang River, Feilai Gorge complex works and

waterway regulation works from Qingyuan on lower reaches of the Beijiang River to

Sanshui outfall are added into consideration, main waterways on the Beijiang River

will be connected as a whole. By these, all kinds of water-carriage works will be in

full and good use and the behind by-water transportation situation in mountain areas

of north Guangdong will be improved greatly.

Besides obvious shipping benefits, outstanding meanings for poverty alleviation

and development are seen from Waterway Regulation Works on Beijiang River.

Similar with Qingyuan region, Shaoguan region mainly consists of mountain areas,

with large areas covered by limestone and high mountains. There are a large number

of needy population and depressed towns all over the whole region. In these, there are

6

49 depressed towns, accounting for 30% of the total amount of towns in this region,

and 396 depressed villages, accounting for 31% of total amount. In the region, traffic

is very inconvenient. In some mountain areas, mountains are in front of the door and

boats are necessary for going out. Therefore, on one hand, by regulating waterways on

the Beijiang River, economic structure, investment environment and network of

traffic and transportation by-water or overland in mountain areas will be improved; on

the other hand, opportunities of social employment will be increased, and living

standard in mountain areas will be raised.

1.4 Measures for Reducing Impacts of Migration and of the Project

In the view of business owner, the purpose of waterway regulation project is, by

amending network of traffic and transportation by water or on overland in nearby

regions, to improve construction environment of local society, and to improve the

level of local economic development. Then, the final purpose is to raise living

standards in local society. Therefore, during the process of construction, factors

causing negative effects on people's life should be under effective control and be

reduced, especially occupation of cultivated land in rural areas should be restricted.

By such means as planning scientifically, improving designing and broad public

participation, impacts of the project on cultivated land will be decreased to a possible

low level.

1.4.1 Measures Adopted in Lao-long-hu Works

In middle of 2001, the project was in planning stage. At that time, by

investigating and checking real materials, business owner and design unit proposed

that during the process of project construction, as small amount of cultivated land as

possible can be acquired, especially cultivated land in basic farmland protection zone;

and greatest try should be taken to avoid acquiring orchards (lichee, longan) and

mandarin fish ponds which have high added values, and land used temporarily should

only be obtained from abandoned wasteland, billabongs and fishponds.

During period from Oct. 2001 to Jan. 2002, the project was in initial designing

phase. Taking into consideration the facts that lot of cultivated land has to be acquired

in process of crooks-cutting works in Longquan village, business owner and design

unit of the project did careful study on four recommended blueprints options. At last,

options No. 3 was selected for its scientific attribute.

7

Table 2: Four Options of Crooks Straightening

Options Radii of crooks Quantity of landstraightening (meter) acquisition (mu)

Options No.1 330 646Options No.2 480 816Options No.3 530 869Options No.4 600 930

Option No.3 is recommended. Quantity of land acquisition in optiont No.3 is 60

mu less than that of option No.4. Because in these areas there are lots of fishponds and

paddy fields, and also a little massif of 13 meters high with lichee trees planted. In

option No.2, the little massif is crossed through, and it's necessary to move the massif

and evacuate trees, so there are heavy tasks in the project. In order to decrease the

impacts, it's decided to select option No.3, in which the massif will be bypassed, and

technical demands will be met.

In Longquan village, there are two banyan trees as old as 100 years in the scope of

Xiaoqiezui. In order to protect the scarce visage in the village and to reduce the

impacts, it is decided to widen the riverway on the other side.

From March to May of 2002, business owner, design unit, municipal government

of Xinhui and its underlying Bureau of Communications and Bureau of land and

resources have negotiated and communicated for many times to solicit the opinions on

project design and reducing the impacts of land acquisition.

On May 24th 2002, investigation organization transferred the full project design

and blue print about land acquisition to Villagers Committee of Longquan village, and

convened a symposium including some villagers, and by studying the design blueprint

and comparing it with the locale, let them know the scope of land acquisition and

possible measures for recovery. The Committee and villagers were advised and

encouraged to take positive participation, and to make some suggestions on the

impacts of land acquisition and others.

On June 12th 2002, in Muzhou town, investigation organization received

Longquan village's suggestions on reducing the impacts of the project, and then

transferred these suggestions to business owner and design unit.

On July 16th 2002, representatives of business owner, design unit and

investigation organization came to Xinhui municipal government to hold a negotiation

meeting. Business owner accepted suggestions of representatives of villagers and

8

governors of the town government, and decided to modify the planning design.

Finally, they decided that about 284.5 mu of land be acquired in the crooks-cutting

works (land of about 71 mu used for building bridges are not included). In design of

this blue print, land to be acquired is 584.5 mu less than that in the blue print of Oct.

2001. Till that time, impacts of land acquisition has been reduced to a minimal level

when the project was in the planning phase.

1.4.2 Measures Adopted in Xiniu Works

In the stage of studying the feasibility of the project, the design institution has such

two schemes as upriver and downriver Liangzhou for dam's address. Business owner

recommended upriver Liangzhou as the address, to avoid acquiring 50 mu of orchards

in downriver Liangzhou, and reduce the impacts.

In April 2002, in deciding the permanent land to be acquired for working and

living, it was decided with Yingde and Xiniu Bureaus of Land and Resources that no

basic farmland protection zone be acquired, and that greatest effort be made to reduce

acquisition of paddy fields (which is the major foods resources for farmers in local

region), and land to be acquired should be sandy land (or dry land) with poor

cultivating conditions along The Lianjiang River. In previous time, these areas of land

were bottomland scoured out by Lianjiang River. After farmers reclaimed this land,

bamboo and corps able to bear dry weather are planted in this land. But the average

output of per mu is much lower than that in nearby areas.

Besides, quantity of construction-used land for working and living houses is under

effective control of business owner and design unit. In selecting corresponding

facilities, roads and pipe lines, it has been considered to reduce acquisition of

farmland, and to use bottomland along river and land not used for cultivation.

In June 2002, for the characteristic that farmland in such villages as Yuzui and

Zhengnan tend to be submerged by floods, design unit had made on-the-spot survey

for many times, and by many experiments, improved the design of dam's body and

water storage in reservoir, which reduced the possibility of being submerged by

floods by a large degree.

In August 2002, it has been planned to rent about 463.3 mu land used temporarily

in Xilian and Xiaowan village. Among this land, there is 205 mu of cultivated land, 53

mu of orchards and 96.2 mu of forest land. In order to reduce the impacts of

occupying cultivated land, after negotiating with Bureau of Land and Resources,

cadres of Villagers Committee and villagers' representatives, business owner and

9

design unit planned to rent less cultivated land, instead, to rent wasteland, sloping

fields and bottomland along rivers without corps planted. By these means, more than

70% of land to be rented is that not fit for cultivating, which avoided the impacts of

land renting on rural production on the whole.

2 Socioeconomic Situations in Project Area

Regions which the construction will be in and will be influenced by the project

are Muzhou and Gujin town in Xinhui city, Xiniu and Hanguang town in Yingde city.

Eleven Villagers Committees are included in the scope to be under impacts.

2.1 Nature, Society and Economy Background of Regions Involved in the

Project

Lao-long-hu waterway locates within the boundaries of Xinhui city Guangdong

province.

Xinhui city was renamed as a city from a county in October 1992. The city2covers an area of 1,679 km , with a population of 870,000. The city is famous as a

hometown of overseas Chinese in Guangdong, for about 800,000 overseas Chinese

and compatriots in Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan are from the city. The city has

jurisdiction over 21 towns, with municipal government in Huicheng town.

Xinhui city lies in middle-south Guangdong, or west PRD. Terrain of the city

slopes from northwest to southeast. Physical feature of northwest and south of the city

is upland, and that of middle of the city is flatland. About 65 percent of the total area

is plain. Shizitou peak, the highest peak of Gudou Mountain lying in southwest of the

city, stands 982 meters high above sea level, and is known as the highest peak of the

city. The Xijiang River runs through east of the city, while the Tanjiang River runs

from west to east of the city, turning south near Huicheng, and flows into the sea at

Yamen.

The city lies in south subtropics, with an average temperature of 21.8 "C in a

whole year, 13.4 °C in January and 28.3 °C in July. Annual average rainfall is about

1789 mm. The rainfall is centralized from May to September, and the city is often

attacked by typhoon in summer.

Mine resources mainly include silicon and grit, with some tungsten, stannum,

lignite, niobium, quartz grit and potassium stone, etc.

There is about 611,000 mu of cultivated land in the city. The land is rich and

fertile, with many kinds of outputs. The city is known as a well-watered place where

fish, rice and fruits are abundant. Crops mainly consist of paddy, fruits, sugar cane,

peanuts, sunflowers, soybeans, silkworms and mulberries, cassavas, tobaccos, yellow

flower hemps, vegetables and teas, etc. The city is densely covered by waterways

network, with many kinds of aquatic products. A rapid industrial development is

20

maintained, and the industry mainly includes chemical fibre spinning industry, clothes,

machinery, building materials, electrical machinery, chemical industry and food

processing industry, etc. Chemical fibre spinning industry has advanced producing

facilities, with products sold outsides far away.

Since 1986, Xinhui city has maintained continuous GDP growths of more than

15% for 15 years. Rapid growth in GDP promotes corresponding growth in by-water

transportation. Hinterland along the Tanjiang River belongs to PRD regions, with

secondary and tertiary industries as more than 80% of the whole GDP, and an average

per capita income of more than RMB 10,000. Living standard increases rapidly.

Farmers almost live in storied buildings, and live rich life. Overseas Chinese invested

here and opened factories, and privately owned enterprises build factories in Xinhui

city, therefore, many enterprises provided many opportunities of employment for

Xinhui. At leisure time from farming, many villagers of Xinhui city go into these

factories to do manual work. Almost all of the households have members doing work

in factories. Different from other places, they do manual work in their own

hometowns, without going out, and live rich life. For lake of labor forces in this

region, about one hundred thousand manual workers from other cities were employed

in the city.

Traffic by-water or overland in Xinhui city is very convenient. Shakou to Shuikou

section of provincial highway traverses boundaries of the city, and Xinhui to east

Fan-rong-chang-sheng highway passes. It is feasible to reach Kaiping, Zhaoqing and

Guangzhou by by-water traffic, and from Yamen it is feasible to reach seaside ports

and Hong Kong, Macau.

Xiniu works locates within Yingde city. The city has a long history, known as a

city with ancient civilization in south of the Five Ridges. It was called Yingzhou in

ancient times, famous for its richness in quartzite. The city lies in middle Guangdong,

on upper and middle reaches of the Beijiang River, on the place where PRD and

mountain areas of north Guangdong are connected, with highland in its north and

lowland in its south. The city is divided into east and west parts by Huashi Mountain

running from south to north on east side of the Beijiang River. Most of the mountains

higher than 1000 meters are distributed in north of the city, and on both sides of rivers

there are often river valleys, plains and basins among mountains. In north of the city,

Chuandi Peak is the highest peak of the city, with a height above sea level of 1,568

meters. The Beijiang River runs through boundaries of the city, and the Lianjiang and

21

Wengjiang River flow into the Beijiang River from northwest and northeast

respectively.

There are 33 towns and one tour zone under jurisdiction of Yingde city. Now the

city has a population of 1,010,000 and 349,662 among these are agricultural labors

forces, 165,015 are female labors forces. Among labor forces, 244,174 are engaged in

agriculture, and 10,789 are engaged in industry, while there are 63,987 engaged out of

the city. For lake of cultivated land and insufficient employment in the region, there

are abundant surplus labor forces in rural areas. Area of the city is about 5,671 kmi2,

known as the biggest county-level administrative region in Guangdong province.

However, agriculture in the city is short of cultivatable resources, with cultivated land

of only 788,507 mu (58% of which is paddy field and dry land).

There is an annual average runoff quantity of 37.6 billion m3 in three main water

systems of the Beijiang, Lianjiang and Wenjiang River and their sixteen branches.

Among these, the Beijiang and Lianjiang River are open to navigate ships, and ships

of 100 tons level can directly reach Yingde city from Hong Kong, Macau and

Guangzhou. In the city, 39 kinds of mine resources have been proven up, and it is rich

in Sulfur, Iron, Aurum, Argentine, Cuprum, Zinc, Coal, Limestone, Granite and

Quartz, fit to develop industries such as smelting, building materials and chemical

industry. Limestone is in great reserve and of high quality. Relying on local resources,

industrial system of building materials, chemical industry, agricultural products

processing and energy industries have been formed. Yingde city is an important

cement production base in Guangdong province. There are 11946 small-scale

enterprises of all kinds. Among these, there are 136 owned by towns and 431 owned

by villages. Total amount of people in these enterprises is 41,047 and 3.5 as an

average per enterprise.

Climate in Yingde city belongs to subtropical and monsoon one, with an average

temperature of 20.7 °C, an average sunshine time of 1662.2 hours and an average

rainfall of 1900 mm in a whole year. Good temperature here is very suitable for

comprehensive development in agriculture. What are planted in local region mainly

include crops, corns and sweet potatoes, and industrial crops including oranges, teas,

bamboo shoots and mulberries. Yingde Teas are famous in China and foreign

countries for their notable characteristics of thick aroma and sweet flavor.

The whole city has forest of about 3,200,000 mu, and shrubbery of 850,000 mu,

22

with a total woods reserve of 6,200,000 m3. Land on both sides of the large and small

Beijiang Rivers and their water system fields are rich in wild textile plants such as

Total laborers of the village are 1,616, male laborers are 835, account for 51.7%,

female laborers are 781, account for 48.3%. 341 of them find job out of the town.

A bituminous macadam passes the village, long-distance bus can arrive at Yingde

City.

The planting area of early season rice is 510 mu in 2001, total output is 201.45

tons, mean output is 375 kg/mu, The planting area of late season rice is 550 mu, total

output is 214.5 tons, mean output is 390 kg/mu. The planting area of corn is 102 mu,

total output is 12.14 tons.

Yuzui Village is close to Lianjiang River, the topography is relatively low, easy

to be impacted by flood. Due to the long distance to the city, industry and commerce

is not developed, no enterprises, farmer's income is low.

3 Impacts of the Project

3.1 Scopes Under the Impacts of Land Acquisition in the Project

3.1.1 Scopes Under the Impacts

Scopes under the impacts of Lao-long-hu works: there are four sections in

Lao-long-hu works, they are: north section of Laolao brook, Longquan Sea, tail of

Babao waterway and tail of Hukeng waterway. River in North section of Laolao brook

and tail of Hukeng waterway is deep and wide, and there is no need of land

acquisition and dismantling. There are two crooks with radii of 200 and 270 meters at

the confluence of Longquan Sea and of Babao waterway. Therefore, it is required to

cut these crooks and to acquire some cultivated land and fishponds, and it is the place

where land acquisition is concentrated. There is riverway of about 4km in whole

course of the works to be widen, concentrated in section of Longquan Sea and tail of

Babao waterway. In addition, a little land in Loangquan and Dongcheng village

should be acquired because of rebuilding the Longma and Lianyao Bridge.

Villages where acquired land distributed: villages to be under impacts of land

acquisition are Wangshan and Lingbei village of Gujin town, Longquan and

Dongcheng village of Muzhou town. Among these, only Longquan, Dongcheng and

Wangshan village have cultivated land to be acquired.

Scopes under the impacts of Xiniu Navigation Complex: regions where the

construction will be in and will be influenced by the works are Xiniu and Hanguang

town. 8 Villagers Committees and 15 Groups are included in the scope under impacts.

No houses and residents dismantling are needed in the works. 8 villages under

jurisdiction of Xiniu and Hanguang town will be submerged by reservoir, including

Xilian and Xiaowan village of Xiniu town, and six villages of Hanguang town, such

as Yuzui, Dongling, Lingnan, Zhuangzhou, Zhengnan and Hanguang Village. A little

land should be acquired in Xilian and Xiaowan village, for construction of such

auxiliary facilities in the works as working houses, roads, greenbelts.

3.1.2 Contents of the Impacts (Practicality Indexes)

At the beginning of 2002, coordinating with Xinhui Bureaus of Communications,

Land and Resources and Yingde Bureau of Land and Resources, design unit of the

project made an investigation on practicality indexes in regions under impacts. These

indexes include:

44

Land acquisition: agricultural and other land resources are decreased for for

cutting crooks of waterways, expanding dams or being submerged by reservoir, or

permanent use in the project.

Impacts on production: details of impacts on farmers' life and production include

decrease in quantity of cultivated land, decrease in incomes from agricultural planting,

impacts on enterprises business and their employees' life, and impacts on towns and

villages' economic and social development.

Impacts on public infrastructures: for example, impacts on cables, bridges as well

as docks and pumping stations submerged by reservoirs.

Other indexes under impacts: bamboo fields, pavements and river banks.

3.2 Land Acquisition in the Project

3.2.1 Property Rights and Operating Mode of Land to Be Acquired

Land to be acquired in the project includes agricultural land and non-agricultural

land.

Among agricultural land to be acquired, property rights of farmland to be

acquired in Lao-long-hu works are collective ownership of Villagers Committees, and

property rights of farmland to be acquired in Xiniu Navigation Complex are mainly

collective ownership of Villagers Groups, while some cultivated land and forest land

are collectively owned by Villagers Committees. Land owned by Villagers Committee

and Groups have been distributed to villagers by means of household contract

responsibility system with remuneration linked to output. Durations of these contracts

are different from ten to thirty years. Some agricultural land collectively owned by

Villagers Committees are not distributed to villagers by this means, but operated by

economic organizations formed by Villagers Committees, and profits from this land

are used for villages' collective careers development.

Most of villages (given Longquan and Xilian village as examples) promised to

make a partial adjustment on cultivated land operated by means of household contract

responsibility system with remuneration linked to output, according to the changed

labor forces situation of villages and households. The adjustment should be subject to

strict working process.

Non-agricultural land to be acquired is mainly land along river beaches, as well

as land used for city or town construction, industrial and mining enterprises-used land.

They are state owned. No compensation or settlement for Villagers Committees and

villagers is required in acquisition of this land.

45

3.2.2 Description of the Operating Situation of Land to Be Acquired

Paddy fields: are mainly used to yield paddies. Paddy fields to be acquired in

Lao-long-hu works are mainly concentrated in Longquan village, Muzhou town. The

town lies west of PRD, densely covered by waterways network. Most farmland is

formed and filled by erosion of the Xijiang River water system, with fertile soil and

convenient irrigation, known as an important rice zone in Jiangmen region. Local

farmers plant two or three crops a year, with a per mu output from 1200 to 1500 kg,

equaling to an output value from RMB 1200 to 1500 Yuan or a net output value from

RMB 500 to 600 Yuan. In recent years, for saturation of grain market and severe

competition, some grains harvested by local farmers flew into markets, with others

used for foods at home.

There are two crops a year on land to be acquired in Xiniu works, with a per mu

output from 350 to 800 kg. There are only few paddy fields in local region, with a low

crop output. Farmers should hand in grains from 40kg to 60kg per mu as tax to

collective state. Crops they harvested are used mainly for foods at home, with few

sold at markets. Per mu output value is from RMB 700 to 800 Yuan, with a net value

about RMB 200 Yuan after expenditures on chemical fertilizers, pesticide and seeds

were deducted.

Fishponds are mainly distributed on both sides of Lao-long-hu waterway. They

are densely distributed in Ningmengzhou of Longquan village. There are about 1500

mu of fishponds in the village, and most of them are dug by manual work. For it's

convenient to get water in fishponds near Lao-long-hu waterway, fish and shrimps

with high added value are bred here. Till July 2002, the time when report of social

impacts assessment was completed, Luo-family shrimps were being bred in the entire

90.64 mu of fishponds in Ningmengzhou which are to be impacted by land acquisition.

According to villagers' introduction, breeding shrimps for two times a year can yield

an output of 500kg, equaling to an output value from RMB 30,000 to 40,000 Yuan, if

stable production is maintained. However, the yield will be nothing when in red tides

or infectious diseases. Households engaged in pisciculture sign an agreement with

Villagers Committee on contracting and operating fishponds, with an operation allot

time from five to fifteen years. A contract fee of RMB 500 Yuan/mu and specialty tax

should be paid every year.

Dry land is mainly used for planting potatoes, corns and peanuts. Output of

peanuts can reach 200 kg/mu, mainly used for extracting oil, self-use or sale. Outputs

46

of potatoes and corns are a little higher, used by farmers for complementary foods or

sale of surplus parts.

Most forestland, mulberry and orange fields are those improved land along river

breaches. Forestland mainly refers to bamboo fields along river sides. Villagers plant

bamboo for selling, at a price from RMB 0.8 to 1 Yuan per twig. Every household

usually has three to five bamboo clusters, with an output from 30 to 50 pieces of

bamboo per cluster. Mulberry fields are also those improved land along river breaches.

Every year, silkworms are harvested for two times, with an output value of about

RMB 800 Yuan per mu.

Agricultural land to be acquired in Xiniu complex project are mainly formed and

filled by erosion of the Lianjiang River. There are a high percentage of sands included

in soil, hard to keep nutrient. Especially, harm of seasonal flood on the Lianjiang

River is very severe, once flood overflows above river bank, crops will be submerged,

which makes farmers get nothing. According to local villagers' introduction, there are

flood on the Lianjiang River every year, with agricultural production threatened in

five to six out of ten years. Therefore, farmland is in low protection from flood or

drought. It was found from investigation that, there are 89 and 210 mu of cultivated

land in Xinchen and Zhangwu village respectively, but areas of land under harvest

guarantee are only 24 and 80 mu, accounting for 27% and 38% of total amount of

cultivated land respectively. This situation led to a low per mu output and low cash

income for farmers from cultivated land.

Construction-used Land is attributed to non-agricultural land. Land used for

factories, mines, roads, municipal works and other public facilities are

construction-used land. Property rights of construction-used land to be acquired are

state ownership. Construction-used land to be acquired in this time is mainly land of

stoneyard. In details, they are land of some stoneyards' docks to be acquired for

expanding riverbank. For acquisition of land of some docks, navigation of stoneyards'

products will be held up for two or three months.

Unused land usually refers to wasteland, attributed to non-agricultural land, and

they are state owned. In details, unused land to be acquired in this time is that lies in

Longshankou stoneyard and the Lianyao Bridge.

3.2.3 Quantity of Land to Be Acquired in the Project

Total area of land to be acquired in the project is 2142.22 mu. Among these,

paddy fields are 139.42 mu, accounting for 6.5% of total; dry land is 225 mu,

47

accounting for 10.5% of total; fishponds are 106.96 mu, accounting for 5% of total;

land along river beaches is 1290.8 mu, accounting for 60.3% of total. Statistic data

shows that, of land to be acquired, 669.8 mu are agricultural land contracted and

operated by farners, accounting for 31.3% of total, and 1472.43 mu are

non-agricultural land owned by the state, accounting for 68.7% of total. Agricultural

land as a percentage of total land to be acquired in the project is not high.

Lao-long-hu works: total amount of land to be acquired is 351.47 mu. Of this

land, 83.33 nmu are paddy fields, 106.96 mu are fishponds, 91.31 mu are unused land

and 69.87 mu are construction-used land. Villages under the impacts include

Wangshan and Lingbei village of Gujin town, Longquan and Dongcheng village of

Muzhou town. Among these, only Longquan, Dongcheng and Wangshan village have

cultivated land to be acquired. Fishponds and paddy fields to be acquired are mainly

48

concentrated in Longquan village where crooks should be cut. Besides Longquan

village where fishponds and paddy fields are concentrated, the others are mainly

stoneyard construction-used land and wasteland.

Xinu navigation complex: all kinds of land of 1315.8 mu is to be acquired in

project construction. There are few impacts of land acquisition in the project on

agricultural production and cultivated land in local regions. Of total land to be

acquired, 1315.8 mu are state-owned land along river beaches and wasteland,

accounting for 74% of total; 454.4 mu are agricultural land in eight villages and

fifteen Villagers Groups, of which 281.1 mu are paddy fields and dry land, accounting

for 16% of total, and 173.3 mu are orchard land, forest land and mulberry fields,

accounting for 10% of total. In addition, 16.7 mu to be acquired, accounting for 0.9%

of total, are state-owned land used for towns construction and Industrial and

Mining-Used Land.

Waterway Regulation Works on the Beijiang River: in the works, there is no

large-scale works of cutting crooks, expanding riverbanks and design of changing

riverways. In constructing of main body of the works, there is no need to acquire land

for permanent use, which imposes no negative impact of decrease in cultivated land

and harm to agricultural production on villages and farmers along both sides of the

river. In Shaoguan city, there are state-owned city land (in Furong district) of 3.75 mu

to be acquired for construction of logistic supporting facilities in the works, to build

station houses, navigation marks and maintenance factory for working ships. There

are no people living in this land to be acquired, or no enterprises. Objects of land

acquisition are local government and management sector of Land and Resources.

3.3 Land Used Temporarily

3.3.1 Quantity of Land Used Temporarily

In implementing the project, little rural land should be acquired. In these, 463.3

mu of land in Xilian and Xiaowan village should be acquired for Xiniu Navigation

Complex on the Lianjiang River; 730 mu of land should be acquired and used for

discharging mud in Lao-long-hu Waterway Regulation Works. There is no land

renting plan in Waterway Regulation Works on the Beijiang River. Working ships are

adopted in implementing the project, so there is no need to build temporary working

houses. Facilities for bombing reefs, clearing silts and dismantling waterway will be

piled up in nearby riverbed, so no temporary land is needed to be rent for piling

materials and discharging mud.

3.3.2 Description of Land Used Temporarily

Land of 730 mu should be acquired and used for discharging mud in Lao-long-hu

Works. Most of these distribute on both sides of river in Muzhou and Sanjiang town,

and there are 100 mu in Xinqian village, 150 mu in Heyi village, 200 mu in Luobei, 80

mu in Beiwan and 200 mu in Xiezhou village of Muzhou town. The reason why most

of this land used for discharging mud distribute in villages along river sides is that the

implementation riverway is as long as about 16 km, so it will be convenient for

implementing to discharge mud in nearby place. In addition, land used for discharging

mud is mainly selected in low places on river sides, to use some bottomland and

abandoned fishponds, to keep way from paddy fields and fishponds with high outputs.

Some of the discharging land can be gradually improved into cultivated land after

been filled, to raise total amount of cultivated land in local regions.

Land of 463.3 mu should be temporarily rent and used for pilling up materials,

discharging mud and sandstone in Xiniu works. Scopes of land rent are in Xilian and

Xiaowan village. Among these, 175.2 mu are rent in Xilian village and 288 mu in

Xiaowan village. Land to be rent is mainly wasteland and land along river beaches,

and a little is cultivated land and forest land.

3.4 Impacts of Land Acquisition for the Project on Rural Economy

Three Villagers Committees under jurisdiction of Muzhou and Gujin town, eight

Villagers Committees under jurisdiction of Xiniu and Hanguan town are to be

impacted by permanent land usage, land submerged by reservoir and temporary land

usage in the project. These impacts can be described as: decrease in land resources in

rural areas, especially decrease in resources of arable land, leads to decrease in total

51

quantity of rural collective economy; factors mentioned above will lead decrease in

collective benefits, and decreases in per capita cultivated land area, per labor

cultivated land and per labor allotment in Villagers Committees and Groups. Despite

degrees of impacts on eleven Villagers Committees are different, only Xilian village

of Xiniu town is under the greatest impacts. In the whole village, per capita cultivated

land will decrease by 6.22% after land acquisition, and the next are Longquan and

Wangshan village, with a decrease of 3.5% and 2.8% respectively. Other villages are

under relatively slighter impacts, with decreases in land by less than 1% of total

cultivated land.

No obvious impact can be imposed on society and economy of villages along

river sides in Waterway Regulation Works on the Beijiang River

3.5 Impacts of Land Acquisition on Households' Income

3.5.1 Income Structure of Households to be Impacted

The total income of the households to be impacted by Lao-long-hu Project

consists of a few parts, 65.1% is the income of household business, 2.0% from

collective business, 0.2% from economic combination, 32.8% from non-business

income. Land acquisition mainly has impact on income of household business.

construction 7.4% wforestry 0.4%

transport 8.1% n

Industry 4.9% /

sideline 2.7% g

fishery 44.3%

Among the income of household business, income of grain planting account for

19.2%, forestry account for 0.4%, fishery account for 44.3%, sidelines account for

2.7%, transport account for 8.1%, construction account for 7.4%, industry account for

4.9%, commercial service account for 6.9%, other business income account for 6.0%.

We can find that the percent of fishery income is the highest one in this area.

The income of the households to be impacted by Xiniu Navigation Complex

Project mainly from household business, this part account for 90.0% of the total

household income. The income from collective business is only account for 1.5%,

income from economic combination is only 0.9%, other non business income account

for 7.7% of the total household income. The main impact of land acquisition is on the

income of household business.

Among the income of household business, income of grain planting account for

53

37.5%, forestry account for 14.7%, animal husbandry account for 5.0%, fishery

account for 0.5%, sidelines account for 25.1%, transport account for 1.5%,

construction account for 1.3%, commercial service account for 5.9%, other business

income account for 8.5%. Income of planting, forestry and fishery depend on lands

directly.

3.5.2 Decrease in Households' Income Caused by Land Acquisition

Impacts of Land Acquisition in Lao-long-hu Works on Farmers' Households'

Incomes:

Impacts of Land Acquisition in Lao-long-hu Works are slight on households

contracting cultivated land (paddy fields). Given Longquan village as an example,

58.48 mu of paddy fields in the village should be acquired for cutting crooks in the

works, while 31.36 mu of these are contracted by farmners for raising green crops, and

other 27.12 mu are collectivity-owned undistributed economic fields. 31.36 mu of this

land contracted by farmers for raising green crops are contracted by 110 peasant

households. Household whose land is acquired most is 1.05 mu, while the least is only

0.05 mu. There are seventy-five households, accounting for 68% of total, whouse

lands are acquired less than 0.3 mu.

Paddy fields of 23 mu in Longquan Village should be acquired and used for

rebuilding the Longma Bridge, and 7 production brigades and 38 peasant households

are involved. There is 0.6 mu paddy field to be acquired in per household.

On average, per household in Longquan village has cultivated land of 3.63 mu.

There are 148 households whose land are to be acquired, and cultivated land will

decrease by 0.37 mu for every household, while 20% of total households have no

54

decrease in cultivated land at all.

Impacts of land acquisition are some dispersive, mainly for the reason that there

are many households who contracted cultivated land in these areas. Cultivated land in

local villages is always adjusted and contracted on the principal such as arrangement

among rich and poor land, separation from near and far and random sortition.

Therefore, contractors' cultivated land hasn't been connected as a whole, but

distributed in different places in villages. It was found from the investigation that,

sometimes, three families were cultivating on a stretch of land with a width of 6

meters and a length of 70 meters (equaling to 0.63 mu), despite that there is no

dividing mark.

Because only 19.2% of total households' incomes come from agricultural

planting and on average every household has 0.37 mu of cultivated land to be

acquired, equaling to a 10.2% decrease in cultivated land, decreases in total

households' incomes resulting from acquisition of paddy fields are as low as 2%, and

can be neglected.

The impacts of land acquisition on households engaged in pisciculture are

obvious.

Great impacts are on 19 households engaged in pisciculture in Longquan and

Wangshan village. In total, these households have contracted fishponds of 255 mu,

and 106.96 mu are to be acquired in the project, accounting for 50.8% of the total

amount of fishponds they contracted. Usually some households contracted more than

5 mu of fishponds such as seven households including Zhou Fumei, Zhang Min and

Wu Ruisheng, and there is some households who contracted more than twenty mu, for

example, 40 mu are contracted by Liu Erming, 31 mu by Li Da and 28 mu by Wu

Yaowen. Impacts of fishpond acquisition are different on different households; also

for sake of different allot time. In Longquan village, when the contract with a five

year allot time expired, it can be renewed on the basis of negotiation between

Villagers Committees and farmers. Every year, all villages dig some cultivated land

into fishponds, so almost every year there were new fishponds to be contracted. Of

households who are engaged in pisciculture and to be under the impacts, six have

contracts expiring in one year, and twelve have contracts expiring in two to four years.

Eleven households want to renew contracts when their contracts expire, and there are

also some who decide to quit on expiration of their contracts.

Incomes from pisciculture accounting for 92.7% of total incomes of households

55

engaged in pisciculture, and if when their fishponds are acquired and they don't

contract or operate new fishponds, total incomes of their households will decrease by

47.1%.

Incomes Decrease of Households whose Land to Be Acquired in Xiniu

Project

After land acquisition, area of agricultural cultivation in Xilian village will

decrease by 248.2 mu (54.2 mu of which are paddy fields, and 194 mu are dry land),

accounting for 6.22% of total. In Zhangwu village, which is under jurisdiction of

Xilian village, 40 mu of cultivated land are to be acquired and used for construction of

auxiliary facilities in the project, accounting for 19% of total. Land acquisition will

impose impacts on production of 210 peasant households, and cause decreases in their

incomes from planting, and decreases in households' operating incomes by 7.1%. For

land acquisition, households' incomes in Shangwei, Tangba, Angba and Zhujing will

decrease by 3.1%, 1.5%, 3.4% and 2.9% respectively. Originally, there is forest land

56

of 266.8 mu in total and 0.64 mu per capita in Hetou and Tianliao village which are

under jurisdiction of Xiaowan village, and incomes from forest land account for

14.7% of total households' incomes. After land acquisition, forest land will decrease

by 86.3 mu, which make households' incomes decrease by 4.7%. Garden land and

mulberry fields of 30.6 mu are to be acquired, which make farmers' households'

operating incomes decrease by 3.18% in Zhangwu, Shangwei and Dacun.

In addition, land acquisition will impose indirect impacts on incomes from

animal husbandry and sideline production, but it is difficult to calculate the impacts.

There are slight impacts on other incomes, such as incomes from transporting service,

building industry and business service.

Analyzed on the whole, Impacts of land acquisition in the project are relatively

dispersive, and do business with many villages. Because cultivated land is not

centralized in villages, and convenience in getting water has to be taken into

consideration, farmers cultivate on small stretch of scattered land. Therefore, when

land are to be acquired along river sides, almost every household has some land to be

included, different from 0.01 to 1.20 mu. Quantity of land to be acquired in Zhangwu

village is relatively high, with under relatively great impacts

3.6 Impacts of the Project on Public Facilities

3.6.1 Bridges

For relatively small navigation headroom standard on the Liaoyao Bridge (from

Gouwei hill to Sanjiaowei river section) and Longma Bridge on Lao-long-hu

waterway, they don't reach the navigation standard of National Third-Class Waterway,

and need to be dismantled and rebuilt. Navigation headroom of the Baitu Bridge on

waterway of the Beijiang River has a net width of 23 meters, in line with the demand

57

in Navigation Standard on National Inner River Regulation V on navigation width of

bridges on Third-Class Waterway, but its navigation height is below the standard's

demand, and ships should put down their masts when passing through the bridge.

There is no plan to rebuild the bridge.

3.6.2 Cables and Telephone Lines

Six cables built on stilts and four subaqueous telephone lines will be influenced

by construction of Lao-long-hu works. Five of these cables with headroom heights

less than 22 meters need to be rebuilt.

3.6.3 Structures along River Sides

Structures along river sides under impacts of construction of Lao-long-hu works

mainly include: four pumping stations used for stoneyards' production which are in

the 1.6km long stoneyards, running from Jinjiao to Machong on Babao waterway;

eighteen simple docks protruding from bank to river (ten of which are made of stone

or bricks, eight are temporarily made of bamboo and wood), Hengda Aluminum

Materials Factory and Jiangmen Goods Factory locating on left bank of river section

from Hukeng to Beikeng gateway. In addition, there is a small-scale dock of thirty

meter long built on framework under the impact (no enterprises' operations are to be

influenced, only the using of docks).

Water gates and irrigation facilities: there are twelve small-scale water gates

along the line of Lao-long-hu waterway works, with eight on left side and four on

right. Among water gates mentioned above, only one or two need to be rebuilt,

without obvious impacts on others. In addition, thirty-six culverts (with diameter over

lm) in Muzhou will be under impacts of the works, and sixteen of them need to be

dismantled. The works will influence ten electricity-driven irrigation and drainage

pumping stations, with a total installed capacity of 488 KW, and five of them with a

total installed capacity of 293 KW, need to be dismantled. Public facilities under

impacts of Xiniu Complex works include ten docks used for getting living water and

58

nine pumping stations, they are all simple facilities.

It is possible that waterway regulation works on middle reaches of the Beijiang

River will impose impacts on a group of small docks in Niuetan and ships navigation

for a short time. These impacts will happen during the period of construction, but they

won't cause business stop to enterprises mentioned above

3.7 Impacts of the Project on Stoneyards, Brickyards and Dockyards

On one side of the Longma Bridge on Lao-long-hu waterway, lies South

Longquan River Brickyard, which is contracted and operated by a person from

Zhongshan city. At the foot of Longkou hill in Wangshan village of Muzhou town,

locate six stoneyards. Except the Longshankou Stone Company is jointly owned by

the town government and a Hong Kong businessman, the others are owned by villages

or invested and then recontracted by privates. Enterprises mentioned above have some

of their land to be acquired for construction of the project or their usages of freight

docks are to be impacted by construction. According to introduction of Mr. Liang

Zhihui, shareholder of Wangshan joint stoneyard, 95% of the stoneyard products are

transported by ships, and 85% of brickyards' products are transported through docks.

Facilities in docks will be dismantled and moved for waterways regulation and

riverbank rebuilding, which will influence production in stoneyards and brickyards.

During period of construction of the project, stoneyards and brickyards will be

temporarily out of business for two or three months, for the sake of dismantling and

rebuilding docks. During the period, employees of brickyards will have no income,

and enterprises owners will be faced with problems such as handing in contracting fee

and private operating risks. However, construction of the project will not cause

enterprises' moving or massive laid-off of enterprises' employee. Therefore, project's

impacts are slight. The land where stoneyards lie in is state-owned. Stoneyards' and

brickyards' loss of production stop and decrease in output caused by construction of

the project will made up to enterprises directly by business owner of the project.

During period of construction of waterway regulation works on the Beijang River,

it is possible that launching newly-made ships in Baitu dockyard will be influenced.

Because docks are expanded to shipway, it is possible that ship-making business of

the dockyard will be influenced by construction for temporary silting. However, for

the sake of long cycle of ship-making and low frequency of launching newly-made

ships, the impacts won't be very serious. After completion of the works, shipway will

be much deeper, which will be helpful for navigating ships and do favor for the

59

ship-making business.

4 Legitimate Framework

The resettlement policy of the project is based on the "land acquisition and

relocation regulation" of Chinese government and the "Non-voluntary Immigration

Guideline" (OP 4.12) of the World Bank.

4.1 The Legitimate Framework of Resettlement Policy

In China the land acquisition and relocation regulations are at three levels. The

first level is the law framework set up by the central government which publish the

national rules and implementation guidelines; the second level is the general or

specific regulation issued by the provincial government in order to implement the

national law or rules; the third level is the specific regulation of a certain period or

project issued by municipal or county government.

The relevant laws are as follow:

a. Land management law of PRC, effective from Jan. 1, 1999;

b. Land management implementation practice of PRC, effective from Jan. 1,

1999;

c. Land management implementation practice of Guangdong province, effective

from Nov. 27, 1999;

60

d. Primary farming land conservation district management implementation

practice of Guangdong province, effective from July 26, 1996;

e. River bank management statute of Guangdong province, effective from Dec.,

1996.

4.2 The Resettlement Policy Applicable to this Project

A. land compensation refer to clause 30 of "Land management implementation

practice of Guangdong province":

The paddy field shall be compensated 8 to 10 times of the average annual

production value of the last three years before the land acquisition. Other arable land

shall be compensated 6 to 8 times of the average annual production value of the last

three years before the land acquisition. The fish ponds shall be compensated 8 to 12

times of the average annual production value of the paddy field nearby of the last

three years before the land acquisition. The other farming land shall be compensated 5

to 7 times of the average annual production value of the last three years before the

land acquisition. The unexplored land shall be compensated 50% of the average

annual production value of arable land nearby of the last three years before the land

acquisition. The collective-owned non-agricultural construction land shall be

compensated at the same rate as the other arable land nearby.

The average annual production value is calculated according to the grass root

statistic annual report audited by local statistic department and the recognized unit

rate by the price department.

B. Green crop compensation refer to clause 30 of "Land management

implementation practice of Guangdong province":

The short term crops shall be compensated one season. The perennial crops shall

be reasonably compensated on the basis of the planting period and growing period.

C. Attachment compensation refer to clause 30 of "Land management

implementation practice of Guangdong province":

The wells, tombs and other attachment of the acquired land shall be compensated

at the rate decided by the county government based on the actual situation.

D. Resettlement subsidy refer to clause 30 of "Land management implementation

practice of Guangdong province":

In case of arable land acquisition, the subsidy that each PAP is entitled to shall be

4 to 6 times of the average annual production value of the last three years before the

land acquisition. But the subsidy of each hectare shall not exceed 15 times of the

4.4 Resettlement Objective and Principle

Resettlement Objective:

The world bank resettlement policy is that the non-voluntary migration shall be

avoided or the scale shall be reduced. If the resettlement can't be avoided, the original

living standards of financial income of the PAPs shall be improved or at least

rehabilitated.

The resettlement principle:

A. To reduce the impact scope of land acquisition and to reduce the number of

non-voluntary migrants to the least;

B. The land acquisition of collective land shall be reasonable compensated. The

compensation shall be made to the collective for the exclusive purpose of developing

collective economy.

C. To implement the equivalent compensation principle. All public facilities,

docks, bridges shall be compensated for the replacement value.

63

D. All the compensations of the land acquisition shall be paid within three

months from the approval of resettlement plan.

After the implementation of the resettlement plan, if the PAPs still can't be

rehabilitated to the original living standards. Then the compensation shall be raised to

30 times of the annual production value.

The temporary land user must reinstate the land to an arable condition within one

year from the expiration of lease contract.

The number of PAPs to be resettled is calculated by the land acquisition quantity

dividing the average land per capita before the land acquisition.

5.7 Flow of the Funds

Land acquisition in Lao-long-hu works was consigned to Xinhui Municipal

Resettlement Office by business owner of the project. Xinhui Resettlement Office is

conducted by major leaders of municipal Party committee, and under charge of

Bureau of Communications. Bureaus of Land and Resources and Water Resources

71

coordinated together to constitute Resettlement Office. Land acquisition in Xiniu

complex is under charge of Yingde Municipal Resettlement Office whose main body

is Bureau of Land and Resources.

GPWB will supply funds for land acquisition in all sub-projects to Resettlement

Offices of Xinhui and Yingde city, and then the Offices undertake the task of land

acquisition and labor forces settlement. The Offices pay the compensation funds to

6 Action Plan for Resettlement and Recovery

6.1 Basis, Characteristics and Essential Measures in Action Plan for

Settlement and Recovery

According to the Land Management Law of PR.C. and Regulations for the

Implementation of Land Management Law in Guangdong Province, business owner

should pay costs for land acquisition, expenses for settlement compensation and

expenses for green crops compensation to rights and interests holders of the land, and

other taxes and expenses should also be paid. Business owner should undertake the

obligation of assisting persons under impacts to raise their living standards. For those

labor forces that need settling because of land acquisition, the settlement will be

implemented by such combined means as paying costs for settlement and

compensation, improving quality of cultivated land in villages, raising per unit yields

of cultivated land and cultivated land adjustment in some areas or in small scope.

6.1.1 Characteristics of Local Labor Forces' Employment

In recent twenty years, economy of Xinhui city grows at a high speed and

people's living standard got a rapid raise. Many overseas Chinese, foreign

businessmen and private investors set up factories one after another. Surplus labor

forces of Xinhui city often enter and work in factories in local regions, and some work

in other cities in PRD such as Guangzhou and Shenzhen. For short in labor forces, the

city also employed some manual workers from outside. It is relatively easy for native

people of Xinhui city to take an occupation, so it is also relatively easy to settle labor

forces. Yingde city lies in mountain areas of north Guangdong, industry and

commerce are undeveloped, and there are few opportunities of employment, surplus

labor forces in village are used to leaving their hometowns for jobs, they often do

manual work for living in south of PRD. In 2000, there were 63987 persons in the city

going out for jobs.

As far as the employment structure of rural labor forces, although a quite high

percentage of farmers in Xinhui city are engaged in agricultural planting, still many

labor forces quitting agricultural cultivating gradually, and turning to be engaged in

industry, building, transportation and wholesale or retailing service. The degree of

rural labor forces' relying on land had decreased a lot. Given Gujin town as an

example, in the whole town there are 22,399 persons engaged in laboring. Among

these, the amount of persons engaged in planting is 8,074, accounting for 36% of total

73

labor forces, 4,262 in industry, according for 19% of total, 3,501 in building,

transportation and commence, accounting for 16% of total, and the other 20% are

engaged in other non-agricultural laboring. Therefore, it has been quite obvious that

more and more labor forces in the town are inclined to be non-agriculturally engaged,

The situation is different in Yingde city. Restricted by environment and economic

development level, except those who do manual work outside, the majority of labor

forces who stay in their hometowns are mainly engaged in agriculture. Therefore,

different characteristics of employment in different places will affect specific

selection on schemes for settling farmers whose land is to be acquired.

6.1.2 Compensation Demands of Affected People and Forming of Settlement

Plan

In investigating social impacts and working out settlement plan, survey groups

held nine symposiums in towns and villages and enterprises under impacts of the

project, attnedants including town's officerss of land and resources, communications

and water resources, as well as villages' carders and villagers' representatives, to

discuss the settlement plan. In the aspect of compensation demands for land

acquisition, 14.9% of persons hoped to readjust land, 8.9% hoped to change

agriculturally registered residents to non-agriculturally, 75.3% hoped to get economic

compensation (cash compensation), and 0.9% hoped for other compensation such as

reduction of or exemption from their agricultural tax paid in grains, or jobs

arrangement.

Considering villagers' detailed demands for settlement, in the beginning of June

2002, according to resources advantage and practical situation in each village,

primarily proposed scheme of settlement,. In line with the demands in World Bank's

OP4.12 guidinge, by analyzing environment capacity after land acquisition in villages

to be impacted, and on the premise of being approved by local governments and

representatives of villagers to be impacted, business owner of the project decided to

settle these villagers to be impacted in their own villages or communities, to facilitate

these villagers to keep their former producing means and life styles after land

acquisition, to keep former's social relationship uninfluenced.

6.1.3 Characteristics of Settlement Plan in the Project and Essential

Measures

By means of analyzing such situations as economic development scales,

characteristics of agricultural economic structures, per capita land resources and

74

composition of farners' income in each village, and on the basis of soliciting opinions

of villagers' representatives for many times, tthe plans of settlement for farmers to be

impacted and production recovery in each village were worked out. Two kinds of

measures will be adopted for settling villagers in each village whose land to be

acquired, and these measures are: (1) cash compensation, this is suitable to most

farmers who have little land to be acquired; (2) land adjustment in small scope, this is

suitable to households who have more than 20% of their total cultivated land to be

acquired. (3) measures for production recovery in each village, in which land to be

acquired, organize these villages to recover production. The details include: starting

irrigation facilities construction to raise the degree of ensuring stable yields despite

drought or excessive rain, reconstructing fields with low outputs to increase the

quantity of paddy field, changing planting structures, importing breeds of vegetable,

reconstructing a batch of abandoned fishponds with low yield, adjusting planting

structure while aptly increasing area of fishponds, enlarging breeding area with high

yield to raise yield of per unit area. The goal is, by means and plans mentioned above,

to raise land's output value even in the situation of decrease in land of those

contracting paddy fields, dry land, forest land and fishponds, not only not to decrease

but to raise their incomes from planting, but also to realize settlement's objectives of

production recovery and increase in living standard finally.

6.2 Settlement Measures for Rural Households Whose Land to be Acquired

6.2.1 Settlement for Farmers Whose Paddy Field Acquired in Longquan

Village

In Longquan village, there are 3770 mu of paddy fields, with 3.63 mu of per

household cultivated land, and 1.02 mu per capita and 2.18 mu per labor. The project

will acquire 81.48 mu of paddy fields. There are 148 households who have land to be

acquired. On average, every household will have a decrease of 0.37 mu in cultivated

land, accounting for 10% of total cultivated land they contracted, and there are only

twelve households who will have decrease of more than 20% in their cultivated land.

It was negotiated with Longquan Villagers Committee and some representatives

of villagers that, farmers of paddy field acquisition in Longquan village can select to

be settled by adjusting land, and those who have less than 20% of their total

contracted cultivated land can select cash compensation.

Condition of Settlement by Adjusting Land in Longquan Village

Longquan village has abundant land resources, and there is still 0.98 mu of per

75

capita cultivated land after acquisition. It is the most convenient and stable means to

settle agricultural labor forces by adjusting land inside the village. Longquan Villagers

Committee also directly owns collective cultivated land undistributed to villagers

(more than 100 mu), and some abandoned paddy fields (more than 20 mu). They can

use these land resources to make adjustment in small scope of the village.

Property Rights of Land in Longquan Village

Longquan Villagers Committee is the legal property-rights holder of 5021 mu

cultivated land in the village. Villagers Groups under jurisdiction of the Committee

don't own the property rights. Property rights and the rights of operating and

contracting cultivated land (including fishponds and garden land) are wholly owned

by the Villagers Committee. Therefore, it is the most suitable and efficient settlement

means for Longquan Villagers Committee to adjust some collectivity-owned

cultivated land resources to farmers to be impacted by land acquisition, and to settle

surplus labor forces caused by project construction with cultivated land.

Frequency of Land Adjustment in Longquan Village

On the premise of following the state's policies of keeping land contract's term

relatively stable, Longquan Villagers Committee has determined the principle that

cultivated land contract is adjusted for every five years, to be adapted to the changing

situation of population and labor forces in rural areas. In the beginning of 2000, the

Committee had once adjusted land contracts, and another adjustment is expected in

the beginning of 2004, in the situation of having no impacts of land acquisition.

The Committee has planed to make a synchronous adjustment on land for

farmers of land acquisition (those who wish to increase cultivated land) after land

acquisition in the project, combined with the chance of periodic land adjustment in

2004.

Measures for Settling Contractors of Paddy Field in Longquan Village

Those contractors (136 households) who will have less than 20% of their total

paddy fields to be acquired can be compensated with cash, and the cash for

compensation and settlement will be paid directly to these individuals.

For those contractors (12 households) who will have more than 20% of their total

paddy fields to be acquired, their personal opinions will be heard and their personal

decisions will be respected. They can be compensated with cash (paying of cash for

compensation and settlement) or land adjustment to increase their contracted paddy

fields.

76

Longquan Village Committee has agreed that, in periodic land adjustment of the

village in 2004 (starting of the project), priority will be given to consider increasing

cultivated land from the land reserved by collectivity for farners of land acquisition.

6.2.2 Settlement for Farmers with Paddy Field Acquied in Wangshan Village

In the village, there are only 1.85 mu of paddy fields to be acquired. Because of

acquisition of line-shape land for expanding dike, only seven households will be

involved. On average, every household has a decrease of only 0.26 mu in their paddy

fields. There is none of them having more than 20% of their total to be acquired.

Before land acquisition, there is only 382 mu of cultivated land in Wangshan

village, with per capita cultivated land of 0.45 mu and per labor cultivated land of

0.85 mu. There are insufficient land resources for adjustment. Per capita cultivated

land will be maintained at 0.45 mu after land acquisition. Therefore, Villagers

Committee will pay cash for the settlement expenses directly to the seven households

to be impacted by land acquisition, while cash for land acquisition compensation will

be kept in village collectivity and used for developing collective economy.

6.2.3 Settlement for Farmers with Fishpond Acquired in Longquan,

Wangshan and Dongcheng Villages

Time of fishponds contracts

Among nineteen contractors who contracted fishponds, there are five whose

contracts will expire in one or two years (three in Wangshan and Dongcheng Village

will expire in January 2003). There are nine whose contracts will expire in 2004, the

77

staring time of the project. Nine households have planed to renew their contracts

when expiration.

Detailed measures for settling fishponds contractors

Longquan village is rich in cultivated land resources, and it is permitted that

Villagers Committee can dig some ponds and contract them to farmers in the village

or those not in the village within the scopes permitted by the policy. Therefore, for

those farmers who have fishponds to be acquired, the Committee has planed to let

them contract the new ponds owned by collectivity, to keep their operation of

aquiculture continuous and not impacted greatly by land acquisition in the project.

Impacts of pond acquisition and preliminary plan for settlement had been announced

to ponds contractors in June 2002, to solicit their opinions. These ponds contractors

have expressed their approvals to the Committee's plans, and they thought that they

fully accepted the compensation and settlement for them. Detailed measures for

settlement in Longquan, Wangshan and Dongcheng village include:

For contractors whose contract time will expire before land acquisition and will

stop operating, compensation for land acquisition will be paid directly to ponds'

property-rights holders, Villagers Committees, and it isn't required to settle these

contractors;

For contractors to expire before land acquisition but will continue operating and

plan to renew contracts, the Committees will bring out new and to-be-contracted

fishponds for these households to select and contract, and expenses for compensation

and settlement for land acquisition will be paid to Villagers Committees, while

expenses for green crops compensation will be paid to ponds contractors.

For contractors not to expire before land acquisition and are still operating their

ponds, if they want to continue their operation, Villagers Committees will give them

new ponds for operating, and they will renew contracting agreements, and expenses

for compensation and settlement for land acquisition will be paid to Villagers

Committees, while expenses for green crops compensation will be paid to ponds

contractors; if they don't want to continue their operation, expenses for land

acquisition compensation will be paid to Villagers Committees, while expenses for

settlement and expenses for green crops compensation will be paid to farmers who

contracted fishponds.

6.2.4 Settlement for Farmers with Land to Be Acquired in Zhengnan, Yuzui

and Dongling Village

78

Decrease in cultivated land: there will be 1.9 mu of paddy fields and 27.60 mu of

dry lands to be acquired in the three villages for being submerged in reservoir. Land to

be acquired belongs to eight Villagers Groups, fifty-eight cultivated land contractors.

Every household's land to be acquired is very little, and none was found to have more

than 10%. of their total cultivated land they contracted to be acquired. The impacts of

land acquisition on households' operating incomes can be neglected.

Measures for settlement: funds for land acquisition compensation will be paid to

Villagers Groups (collectivity) through Villagers Committees, and cash for settlement

will be fully paid to villagers and dominated by them to use for production or other

investment. No land adjustment will be made for these farmers.

6.2.5 Settlement for Farmers with Land to Be Acquired in Xiaowan Village

Decrease in cultivated land: there will be 3.4 mu of cultivated land (dry land) to

be acquired in Xiaowan village, as well as 86.3 mu of woods land. Such four Villagers

Groups as Hetou, Tianliao, Tangyi, Tanger Group will be impacted by land acquisition,

and there are 60 households to be impacted. None was found to have more than 10%

decreases in their total cultivated land.

Measures for settlement: for those who have dry land to be acquired, Xiaowan

Villagers Committee has planed to fully paid expenses for settlement to these farmers.

According to villagers' opinions, the Committee hasn't planed to adjust cultivated

land.

There are also some uncontracted cultivated land and woods land. If farmers to

be impacted by land acquisition plan to increase areas of their cultivated land, and if

permitted by Villagers' Congress, Villagers Committee will distribute some

collectivity-used land to households with land acquired in each Group by contracts.

Then the expenses for land compensation and expenses for settlement will be

dominated by the Committed and used for rural economic development.

6.2.6 Settlement for Farmers Land Acquired in Xilian Village

Cash Compensation

In Xilian Villagers Committee, there are six Villager Groups and 286 households

having 251.6 mu of cultivated land (542 mu of paddy fields) to be acquired. It was

negotiated Xilian Villagers Committee and each Group and villagers'

representatives that, farmers having paddy fields and dry land to be acquired can

select to be settled with land adjustment, and those who having less than 20% of their

total contracted cultivated land to be acquired are mainly compensated with cash. All

79

of the expenses for settlement will be paid to these farmers. For those (thirty

households) who have more than 20% of their total contracted cultivated land to be

acquired, they have been planed to be compensated with land adjustment in small

scope of Villagers Group, under the overall charge of Villagers Committee.

Land Adjustment

Each Group under jurisdiction of Xilian Village always has the custom to adjust

cultivated land in small scope once for every five years, to be adapted to the changing

situation of population, especially change of labor forces of the village. The latest land

adjustment happened in the beginning of 1999, and a new land adjustment in small

scope is expected to be made in the beginning of 2004. The adjustment will be made

through villagers spontaneous signing, the Committee's discussing, and it can be

passed if it receives affirmative votes from more than two-third of representatives

who attend the Congress.

Farmers with land acquired can request to adjust land or not. For those who don't

require adjusting land, the expenses for settlement will be paid to them through

Villagers Groups; for those who require adjusting land, the expenses for settlement

and the expenses for land acquisition compensation won't be paid to them, but kept in

village collectivity and used as investment in construction some projects.

After land adjustment, it can be guaranteed that per capita and per labor

cultivated land of each household are not below the average standard in local town.

Besides land adjustment, the expenses for settlement and the expenses for land

acquisition compensation kept in collectivity will be used as investment in

80

construction in economic recovery plan.

Process of Land Adjustment

According to the policy's regulation in land acquisition announcement and

Resettlement Action Plan, Villagers Committee should in three months advance

announce villagers the name list of farmers who have land to be acquired, and make

public settlement plan at the same time;

Those who want to adjust their land should apply the Committee to be settled by

land adjustment by oral or in writing.

Then, the Committee should convene villagers' representatives to attend

Villagers' Congress, to determine the name list, land location and time for land

adjustment, by means of democratic consulting and representatives' voting. There

should be more than two schemes of contracting cultivated land for villagers to select.

As a substitution, land can also be selected by lots drawing; in a week after land

adjustment (selection), villagers will sign new agreements on contracting and

operating land with Villagers Committee; relative agreements on contracting land

should be handed to Yingde Bureau of Land and Resources, Project Office of GPWB

and kept as records.

6.3 Measures for Recovery of Rural Economy

6.3.1 Measures for Recovery of Rural Economy in Longquan Village

(Investment Plan)

Longquan village will recover and develop rural economy by means of starting

constructing irrigation facilities, digging fishponds and improving strains in planting

and breeding. The follow is the preliminary recovery and development plans and

benefits from them:

A. Dig thirty mu of fishponds of high yield and to reconstruct ninety mu of

expiring fishponds of low yield, planed to be completed in two years after start of

Lao-long-hu waterway regulation works.

The cost of digging new ponds will be RMB 12,000 Yuan per mu, and the total

cost will be RMB 360,000 Yuan for digging thirty mu of new ponds.

Farmers of land acquisition will be given priority to contract these newly-dug

fishponds. Given shrimps-breeding in these ponds, the annual per mu turnover can

reach RMB thirty or forty thousand, if no natural calamity. Every year, Villagers

Committee will collect contracting fee of RMB 500 Yuan/mu from farmer who

contract ponds, and the total is RMB 15,000 Yuan for these newly-dug fishponds. The

81

contracting fee will be used directly for villagers' public welfare facilities, such as

improving educational conditions in schools, making the village's clinics perfect,

making roads and lighting facilities perfect, etc.

RMB 100,000 Yuan will be invested to reconstruct sixty mu of expiring

fishponds, and thirty mu abandoned ponds of low yield. These ponds will be

constructed to be of high yields and then for being recontracted, to raise collective

economic interests. By means mentioned above, balance between loss from land

acquisition and compensation in Longquan village can be realized in two years.

B. To improve water irrigation facilities near Xikeng of Longquan village. RMB

60,000 Yuan for total or 20,000 Yuan for each will be invested to renovate three

small-size water gates; RMB 750,000 Yuan for total or 300 Yuan/m will be invested to

renovate a 2500-meter-long flood-control aqueduct. The works will be implemented

in step with implementation of the project.

C. RMB 500,000 Yuan for total or 500 Yuan/m will be invested to build a dyke

along river in Ningmengzhou for controlling flood, to ensure stable yields for farmers'

despite drought or excessive rain. The works will also be implemented in step with

implementation of Lao-long-hu waterway regulation works and the works of

expanding riverbanks.

6.3.2 Measures for Recovery of Rural Economy in Wangshan Village

The impacts of land acquisition on Wangshan village are relatively small,

Villagers Committee has planed to renovate a 300-meter-long diversion aqueduct

along river side at the same time with construction of the project, with helps from

construction unit. In the village, there are some abandoned fishponds, and the

Committee has planed to reconstruct them to contract, to raise collective interests.

6.3.3 Measures for Recovery of Rural Economy in Dongcheng Village

In Dongcheng village, there is only one fishponds contractor having land to be

acquired, and the impacts are very little. Villagers Committee has planed to renovate

an irrigation aqueduct along river side to increase the ability of preventing flood and

draining waterlogged field, with helps from construction unit.

6.3.4 Measures for Recovery of Rural Economy in Xilian Village

To-be-adopted measures for production recovery include starting constructing

water irrigation facilities, transforming dry land to paddy fields, inaugurating

vegetable fields along riverside, increasing per mu yield value of farmland.

1. Building two aqueducts (each is 0.6 meter wide and 1500 meters long), to

82

improve diversion and water irrigation facilities. Expert of Xiniu town in water

irrigation has estimated that a total funds of RMB 240,000 Yuan should be invested,

for an average investment of RMB 160 Yuan/m. The expert thought that, after

complete of the diversion and irrigation aqueducts, area percentage of land having

stable yields despite drought of excessive rain will increase greatly from 40% to more

than 80%. Ability of drought and flood prevention in cultivated land will be greatly

improved and average per mu output value of the land is expected to have an increase

of 30% to 50%. This measure for production recovery will be taken into overall

consideration of Xilian Villagers Committee, and planed to be implemented in 2004,

in step with the implementation of Xiniu Complex works. This work will receive

positive coordination and assistance from GPWB and the unit of construction.

2. Transforming dry land to paddy fields, to improve quality of cultivated land.

This measure will be implemented through coordination of Xilian Villagers

Committee and six Villagers Groups. Xilian Villagers Committee and representatives

of every Villagers Group thought that, with helps from construction unit, in less than

two years, they will be able to gradually transform dry land of about 800 mu to paddy

fields, to transform deteriorated paddy fields (used as dry land) to new paddy fields of

high yields, in step with improving diversion and water irrigation facilities. By these,

annual per mu output value of cultivated land can be raised to RMB 1000 to 1500

Yuan from about 550 Yuan at present.

The six Villagers Groups' detailed objectives of transforming dry land to paddy

field in first phase are: 35 mu in Zhangwu, 10 mu in Shangwei, 80 mu in Dacun, 30

mu in Tangba, 30 mu in Angba and 15 mu in Zhujing. The transforming will begin

with dry land along riversides and low-yield paddy field used as dry land and a little

abandoned cultivated land in some Groups will be included into the plan of

transforming together.

3. Inaugurating vegetable fields of about 300 mu along riverside. Villagers

Committee thought, once the diversion aqueduct is completed, water irrigation

facilities will be in a complete set, and the degree of ensuring stable yields despite

drought of excessive rain will be raised. The Committee will guide each Group to

inaugurate a vegetable base of 300 mu without environmental pollution, just like

Xiaowan village, by coordinating with company of purchasing and selling agricultural

products, to transport produced fresh vegetable without environmental pollution to

Yingde, Guangzhou, PRD and other tourism places. Referring to Xiaowan village's

83

way of doing, the annual output value of vegetable land can reach RMB 1800 to 2000

Yuan/mu. On the premise of stable market, output value of vegetable land is two times

of that of paddy field, and three to four times of that of dry land or forest land. This is

the important reason why many towns in Yingde city develop vegetable without

environmental pollution.

The objectives in six Groups' plan of inaugurating vegetable land are: the total of

the village is 300 mu, and planed to be implemented by two steps. The first (from

2004 to 2005), the plan will be implemented only in six Groups mentioned above, and

vegetable land of 115 mu is planed to be inaugurated. Among these, 20 mu in

Zhangwu, 5 mu in Shangwei, 20 mu in Dacun, 10 mu in Tangba, 10 mu in Angba and

50 mu in Zhujing. The second step (2006), the plan will be spread to other Groups of

the Villagers Committee.

Representatives of Zhangwu thought, if the measures for recovery mentioned

above can be implemented as planning, although there are 40 mu of cultivated land to

be acquired in Zhangwu, accounting for 19% of total, output value of left cultivated

land can reach more than RMB 1500 Yuan. Counted at output value of 600 Yuan/mu

before land acquisition, the total is RMB 126,000 Yuan. After land acquisition and

implementation of measures for recovery, for the left 170 mu of cultivated land,

counted at output value of 1500 Yuan/mu, incomes from planting can reach RMB

255,000 Yuan, more than double of that before land acquisition.

6.3.5 Measures for Recovery of Rural Economy in Xiaowan Village

Xiaowan Villagers Committee has planed to pay for land acquisition

compensation to such four Villagers Groups to be impacted as Hetou, Tianliao, Tangyi

and Tanger, use money for developing vegetable-planting in the village. By means of

renovating diversion and drainage facilities, low-lying dry land of low yields along

river will be improved. By means of transforming 100 mu of dry land along river to

vegetable land for planting vegetable without environmental pollution, per mu output

value of cultivated land will be increased. By means of transforming some low-yield

forest land (bamboo land) to dry land (about 50 mu) for planting some fruit trees and

mulberries, percentage of incomes from forestry to farmers' total incomes will be

increased, to lead planting business in Xiaowan village grow in multi directions.

6.4 Measures for Recovery of Economy in Villages of Which Land Rent for

Discharging Mud.

In towns along Lao-long-hu waterway, there are 730 mu of cultivated land to be

84

rent and used for discharging mud and pilling materials in the project. The land to be

rent is mainly abandoned sugarcane fields, fishponds, wasteland along river beach and

a little cultivated land.

After negotiating with Villagers Committees and town governments who own the

land, and under the permit of Villagers Committees, villagers' representatives, and

governments of cities and towns, business owner decided to adopt these major

measures for settling villages and farmers to be impacted, and they include:

6.4.1 Economic Compensation for Land Used for Discharging Mud in These

Villages and Distribution of the Compensation

These villages with land to be used for discharging mud will get one time

compensation at RMB 15,000 Yuan/mu, and among these, 10,000 Yuan are paid to

farmers to be impacted as compensation for green crops and loss from planting of

three years; 5,000 Yuan are paid to Villager Committees who own the land. If there is

no farmer who contracted cultivated land to be used for discharging mud, the rent

expenses will be paid to Villagers Committee who will be impacted.

6.4.2 Land Used for Discharging Mud in Will Be Leveled and Recovered as

Cultivatable Land

Business owner has agreed that, after complete of discharging mud in the land

(about two years), they will charge construction unit to fill and level the land used for

discharging, to make them possess preliminary planting conditions. In addition, the

unit of construction will make a preliminary renovation of water irrigation facilities at

the same time.

Villagers Committees with land used for discharging mud, will begin organizing

to rebuild the land used for discharging mud, and to determine plans for renovating

and cultivating the land in the third year after beginning of project construction.

Except those paid to farmers who will be impacted, all of the expenses Villagers

Committees get as rent of land used for discharging mud will be used for renovating

the land and recovering cultivation. For the plan to use these rent expenses, Villagers

Committees have made preliminary negotiations with business owner, and

representatives of villagers have also taken part in discussing and accepted the plan.

6.5 Settlement Measures for Farmers Whose Land to Be Used Temporarily

for Construction

Most of land used temporarily for construction is state-owned land along river

beach and wasteland (70%), and little is cultivated land and forest land (30%). Scope

85

of land temporarily rent is in such Groups as Yuanwo and Angba Group of Xilian

village, Xincheng and Jiezai Group of Xiaowan Village.

After negotiating with town governments, Villagers Commnittees and Groups

which own the land to be temporarily used, and after discussing with and under permit

of Xilian and Xiaowan Villagers Committees and villagers' representatives, business

owner decided to adopt these major measures for settling villages and farmers who

have land to be temporarily rent, and they are:

6.5.1 Economic Compensation for Land Temporarily Rent

Most of the compensations for land temporarily rent are to compensate annual

per mu output value of this land. The compensation will be paid to farmers who will

be impacted through Villagers Committee and Groups.

This land will be temporarily rent for three years, but a four-year rent should be

paid. The forth year is the period of recovering cultivation.

6.5.2 Measures for Recovering Cultivation of Land Temporarily Used

The forth year is the period of recovering cultivation. According to opinions of

Xiniu town government and Villagers Committees, and under business owner's permit,

rent land will be recovered for cultivating by being cleared and leveled. For

recovering cultivating conditions of these rent land, business owner will include it into

construction contracts to charge the construction unit who get the bid to carry in the

fourth year after start of the project. Renovation of water irrigation facilities also has

been included into reconstruction and recovery of cultivation in rent land.

Villagers Committees, representatives of villagers and business owner will make

an on-the-spot check, evaluation and recognition on leveling and cultivation recovery

in land temporarily used.

6.6 Measures for Vulnerable Groups Settlement

Two characteristics of vulnerable groups are found in investigation of the project,

and they are: households who have old people (especially those losing their laboring

abilities); and households who mainly rely on cultivating. Usually, some vulnerable

households have the two characteristics at the same time. In view of these

characteristics of vulnerable groups, after negotiating with Villagers Committee and

vulnerable households, business owner decided to adopt the following measures for

settling these groups:

Assisting vulnerable households to provide for old people. According to the

custom in local villages, when old people in village lose their laboring abilities, their

86

children (mainly their sons) will be duty-bound for their daily life and to provide for

them. Their children should bear all of the expenses for providing for them. If old

people to be impacted by land acquisition aren't really willing to continue cultivating,

or they will have no cultivating ability, business owner will pay expenses for

settlement to these vulnerable groups (or their children) through Villagers Committee.

By means of family providing for them, settlement for these old people can be

realized.

If incomes of old people who will be impacted by land acquisition are mainly

from planting and these households want to adjust land for themselves, Villager

Committees have agreed that, priority will be given to consider meeting their needs of

increasing cultivated land from the land reserved by collectivity or by land adjustment

in small scope. When the Committees implement the collective plan of inaugurating

land, such as the plan of cultivating vegetable fields in large scale, priority will be

given to these vulnerable households to the plan or rent their cultivated land.

According the custom of respecting and sympathizing old people in local villages,

Villagers Committees will pay visit to old people' family to be impacted in important

traditional festivals. Through the periodical visit, the committees can understand life

of these vulnerable groups, and find out difficulties in their life, and feedback these

situations to business owner and independent monitors in time. According to different

practical situations, business owner will take corresponding measures.

6.7 Protection of Women's Their Rights and Interests

In the scope under the impacts, the percentages of populations of males and

females to total population are basically balanced, and they are 51% and 49% on

average. Among those households with land to be acquired, none is composed mainly

of single female labor force who have lost her husband or divorced or been forsaken.

In villagers and communities which will be impacted, women have the same

legal rights as men, such as rights of contracting cultivated land, receiving educations,

birth control and participating villages' or communities' election. Among female labor

forces who have been interviewed, most think that they have the same rights with

male citizens, such as deciding on production and operation by themselves, or

deciding to do manual work, business, or cultivate land in villages.

Of course, in villages, men and women have different labor divisions in families'

life and production. Most women often decide to be engaged in housework, planting

or doing some dickers of agricultural products, handicrafts articles or native products,

87

while except some men are engaged in planting or dickers, most young men go out to

seaside regions doing some manual work for earning money.

Construction of the project and land acquisition won't impose obvious

exceptional impacts on women.

In regions where land is to be acquired, there are standing organizations

protecting women's rights and interests, such as town's Women's Federations which

pay periodical visit to women in villages, to learn the situation of women's rights and

interests protection, and act for women to sue for discrimination on them; in such a

grass root as Villagers Committee, there is also Women's Committee or Women's

school which is in charge of safeguarding women's rights and health training in

village. These organizations have their own working systems, and usually have

independent funds for work. By such means as periodical visit, holding women's

representatives conference or organizing recreational activities for women, they aim

to realize such goals as uniting women in villages, increasing their education level,

eradicating domestic violence and gender discrimination.

In surveying social impacts, business owner and investigation organization have

put enough importance on safeguarding women's rights and hearing women's voices.

Under assistance of the director of Women's Committee in each village, they have

convened some symposiums including women's representatives in small scope, to

announce the details of the project's impacts, and to widely collect these women's

representatives' opinions on the means of compensation and settlement, compensation

standards and plans for recovery of families' economy. Because many women are in

charge of households' expenditures, and directly engaged in planting and services,

they have strong wishes to increase their families' operating income. Therefore, they

have proposed many valuable suggestions to business owner and investigation

organization, and these suggestions have been accepted and put into the resettlement

plan.

During the period of project construction, business owner will convene a

symposium including women's representatives once a year, pay periodical visit to

some families, to collect women's suggestions and complaints at any time, and

receive their consulting.

For women's complaints about settlement, compensation and economic recovery,

women's Committees in villages will report these to business owner in one week, and

business owner should assign representatives to reply for these complaints or solve

88

the problems in the following week.

During the whole process of settlement, independent monitors have paid special

attentions to hear women's voices, and receive their complaints. Besides attending a

conference of negotiating with women once a half year, they established stable

working and coordinating relationships with directors of women's committees to work

more efficiently for decreasing negative impacts of the project and safeguarding

women's rights and interests in villages.

6.8 Monitoring the Use of Compensation Funds for Land Acquisition

One month before implementation of land acquisition, Villagers Committees

should announce to the whole village the Resettlement Action Plan, budgets of

expenses for land acquisition compensation, villages' investment plans for recovery,

by ways of bulletins, broadcasting or CATV, and two weeks before land acquisition,

the committees should convened Villagers' Congress to explain and announce to

villagers every item in plans and budgets mentioned above.

After land acquisition begins, for anything related to the use of compensation

funds for land acquisition and settlement, Villagers Committees should make financial

situation public in bulletin board every month;

When Villager Committees compile investment plans, they should announce

contents, implementation time and expected returns of the plans to all representatives

of villagers, to solicit villagers' opinions; when the investment plans for recovery are

implemented, all of the villagers should be announced through bulletin board at least

once a half year.

Villagers Committees should make open archives about compensation funds for

land acquisition and the implementation of investment plans. These archives should

be true, complete and normative, and preservation times of these archives should be

the same as the finance and account books.

If Villagers Committees couldn't make their finance public, or there is no enough

transparence in the use of compensation funds for land acquisition, after receiving

villagers' complaints, town or county governments and other departments responsible

for the work should charge the Committees to make their finance public by prescribed

time.

6.9 Recovery of Other Facilities

6.9.1 Reconstruction of Bridges

For those bridges which should be dismantled and rebuilt, Xinhui government

89

will paid bridge rebuilding expenses to holders of bridges' property rights, at the

pricing standard for infrastructure reconstruction which is regulated by Ministry of

Construction of P.R.C. New bridges should be built before old bridges are dismantled,

and old bridges can be dismantled only after new bridges are completed and open to

traffic. New bridges should be built on the principle of no or little impact on

production and operation of villages and enterprises nearby, causing land acquisition

as little as possible and decreasing buildings dismantling to the lowest degree.

6.9.2 Moving and Reconstruction of Cables and Telephone Lines

Three months before start of Lao-long-hu works, business owner should sign

agreements on moving and reconstructing cables and telephone lines with

property-rights holders of these cables and telephone lines. Business owner should

paid part of expenses for moving and reconstructing cables and telephone lines to

property-rights holders of these cables and telephone lines in advance, and after

complete of the moving and reconstruction, the two sides make an account settlement

at the reconstruction prices. Prices quoted by property-rights holders can become

effective only after being audited by intermediary evaluation company.

Business owner should pay expenses to compensate loss from business shutout

caused by moving and reconstructing of cables and telephone lines. However, loss

from business shutout reported by property-rights holders can become effective only

after being audited by intermediary evaluation company.

6.9.3 Recovery and Reconstruction of Building along River

All docks, water gates, pumping stations and other water irrigation facilities

(including ten docks used for getting living water and nine pumping stations on Xiniu

navigation complex ) which will be impacted and need to be rebuilt, will be included

into project construction plans. Buildings along riversides which will be impacted will

be transferred to their property-rights holders before complete of the project.

Buildings along riversides will be recovered at the reconstruction prices of these

facilities.

6.9.4 Compensation for Loss from Shutout of Stoneyards and Brickyards

Stoneyards and brickyards' loss from shutout caused by project construction will

be counted at the following way: first, production output and output value and profits

are calculated according to taxes and expenses payment receipts in six months before

these enterprises are dismantled and moved, then loss happening in shutout period is

calculated on this basis. Six months before start of project construction, another

90

adjustment of the loss will be made to confirm the situation of these enterprises'

operations and taxes.

Stoneyards and brickyards' loss from shutout include four aspects, they are: loss

in contractors' profits; loss in employees' wages and bonuses; loss in local

governments' taxes; loss in contracting fee collected from contractors by these

stoneyards and brickyards' property-rights holders (Villagers Committees).

6.9.5 Reduction in Impacts on Niuetan Dock

In order to reduce the impacts on operation of Niuetan private dock, business

owner Will implement the construction in off-season of transportation, and make

enough propagandizing, to make sure that all business owners of docks and owners of

ships on river surface nearby know the scope where reefs will be blasted, and keep

24-hour watch on waterway in construction section and navigate to prevent waterway

from blocking by construction.

6.9.6 Eradication of Impacts on Owner of Shipping Business

In order to prevent waterway from blocking by construction, in construction

sections of some narrow waterways, business owner will take some measures to

reserve navigation waterway, and any ships' owners won't be prevented passing

through by project construction.

In constructing Xiniu navigation complex, navigation waterway will also be

reserved. Construction will be implemented in only one part at one time. After

complete of construction in this part, ships can go into and out of waterway through

flood-discharge sluices which have been built, and then construction in another part

will begin. At the same time, necessary navigating facilities and personnel will be

equipped, to make sure that all transportation ships can go through smoothly.

6.9.7 Maintenance of Drainage and Irrigation Facilities Which Don't Need to

Be Moved and Rebuilt

For many drainage and irrigation facilities which don't need to be moved and

rebuilt, business owner will charge every construction unit to make good maintenance

on these facilities by agreements on contracting the works, to prevent water entrances

being blocked by construction. If the entrances are blocked, after receiving complaints

from those who are impacted, business owner should charge construction unit to

recover in two working days. If units who use this water have to stop their business

for this reason, construction unit should bear the loss. Exact compensation amount of

money will be determined by negotiation between construction unit and the impacted

91

unit.

6.9.8 Guarantee for Production in Baitu Dockyard

Business owner will arrange construction plans according to production cycle

and frequency of new ships launch in Baitu dockyard. Construction arrangement will

be based on the principle that normal production and launching of new ships in the

dockyard will not be impacted. If there are conflicts between construction and

dockyard's use in waterway, construction unit and the dockyard will make beforehand

negotiation, to make sure that normal operation in the dockyard won't be impacted by

project construction.

8 Participation and Negotiation

8.1 The Purposes of the Public Participation and Negotiation

To protect the legitimate rights of the PAPs, during the planning and the

implementation process of the project, the extensive public participation will formn a

smooth communication channel to facilitate the information availability. The

extensive public participation will help the compensation and resettlement of the

PAPs and rehabilitate or even exceed the original living standard. The coordination

and communication will reduce the resistance and the negative impacts to enable the

smooth implementation of the project.

8.2 The Objects of Public Participation and the Organization

8.2.1 The Organization of Public Participation

The official or formal organization: the staff member composition of the

resettlement offices of all levels is the major part of the public participation. Usually

the resettlement offices comprise the representatives from the government,

departments of transport, land navigation, construction, planning, finance, police, civil

administration, agriculture etc to ensure the participation, communication, and

coordination at the same level. The resettlement organization extends from the project

owner to the town and village administration level. So the information can be

communicated upward and downward.

The public participation organized by the IMO is an supporting form of public

negotiation.

The community organization of village and town includes the economic

cooperation association voluntarily organized by the villagers, affected enterprises or

private business association, women school etc.

The organization is very flexible. One can join one or more than one

organizations. One organization can assign representatives to participate the activity

of another organization. Of the three above mentioned organizations, the official and

formal organization shall act as the main communication channel.

8.2.2 Participation in the Negotiation of the PAPs

All affected individual and units have the rights to consult, discuss, negotiate, and

select the resettlement program. For the seriously affect Longquan and Xilian villages,

the IMO discussed the rehabilitation of villager's living standards and living habits,

98

and the favorable policy of the local community with Longquan and Xilian town

governments before the drafting of the resettlement action plan.

(1) The means of the participation of the PAPs and their representatives

The resettlement offices organize activities to solicit the opinions and suggestions

of the PAPs during the process of land acquisition, especially at the issuance of

relocation announcement, the economic survey, and the living standard sampling

survey conducted by the IMO, the determination of compensation standard and the

resettlement location. These activities include representative conference, site

consulting meeting, discussion, survey, and site visits etc. The affected town

government, land departments, resettlement offices and IMO will answer the inquiries

of the PAPs.

(2) The areas of participation

When the PAPs raise questions or concerns of the land acquisition policy,

principle of resettlement and subsidy, scope of land acquisition etc. The site

consulting organization should responds in a timely manner. For the questions which

can't be solved on the spot, an unambiguous answer must be provided within 15 days.

8.3 The Mechanism and Plan of Negotiation

8.3.1 In the Stage of Planning the Project

When the project was in design and the Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) was in

compiling, Xinhui and Yingde Resettlement Office appointed one member

respectively to participate in compiling RAP, and through resettlement offices at all

levels, by negotiating with local governments and communities' residents, adopted the

design blueprint which has the least negative impacts, and enough attention has been

paid to Longquan and Xilian village which are under comparatively great impacts. In

May 2002, an abroad survey has been made on Longquan and Xilian village, and on

the basis, combined with special polices which are given to rural economic

development by Guangdong provincial government, by negotiating with local town

government and Villagers Committees, detailed blueprint was worked out to provide

favorable measures for communities to be impacted. There are some organized

negotiation activities as follow:

In middle of 2001, when the Xiniu works was in preliminary planning stage,

design unit has communicated to Villagers Committees and villagers such situations

as land used for permanent facilities and submerging impacts in reservoir through

municipal governments. In the aspect of determining the location of dam, design unit

99

has communicated directly with villagers, to hear their suggestions and to understand

their worries.

In February 7th 2002, in the first conference for coordinating the work of land

acquisition in Xinhui city, representatives of Bureau of Communications,Bureau of

Land and Resources, Gujin town and Muzhou town governments were invited to

participate in organizing, coordinating and communicating work in resettlement work.

And pertinent propaganda and explanation on policies and information about

resettlement works were made for the first time.

In February 10th 2002, conferences were held in Muzhou and Gujin twon, to

communicate information with town governments about impacts of the project on

stoneyards, fishponds and cultivated land and to solicit stoneyards' business owners'

suggestions for construction of the project.

In February 2002, Yingde government convened a conference including towns

and villages of land acquisition, business owners of buildings along riversides, to

formally communicate information about the project with all sides. Representatives of

all villages got detailed information and data about the project, and the information

and data will be made public to villagers by Villagers Committees, to solicit villagers'

opinions.

In March 2002, business owner, design unit and investigation representatives

interviewed some representatives of villagers in the land to be permanently used and

the scene to be submerged by reservoir, to receive their inquiries, to answer their

questions, and to collect villagers' suggestions on settlement work in a board scope.

On May 21st 2002, Secretary Zhang Dehu convened Villagers Groups in Xilian

village to a conference including eighteen persons, to discuss the possibility of land

adjustment after land acquisition, and recovery measures which should be taken.

Director Zeng Siyuan convened Villagers Groups in Xiaowan village to a conference

including eleven persons. The contents were the same as above.

On May 22nd 2002, a conference including villagers' representatives of Yuzui

village (six Groups) was held in Huaba elementary school, to discuss measures for

preventing farmland from being submerged after water is stored in reservoir. Most of

villagers' representatives prefer cash compensation to land adjustment.]

.On May 24th 2002, a villagers' representative conference was held in Longquan

village, to introduce to villagers situations about plans and construction of the project,

the places, quantities of land to be acquired and possible time, and to understand

100

villagers' attitudes toward construction of the project; several villagers suggested to

reduce land to be acquired, households who contacted fishponds suggested to estimate

farmers' loss reasonably, and villagers in charge of water and electricity suggested to

maintain water irrigation facilities in farmland. Information mentioned above has been

delivered to design unit and the Bureau of Communication.

On June 2nd 2002, a symposium including members of Longquan Villagers

Committee and some villagers' representatives was held, to consult the degree of

Villagers Committee and villagers' acceptance to compensation for land acquisition;

to understand villagers' selection on means of settlement. Most of villagers suggested

that the compensation should reach the highest level in one step, and the

compensation funds should be sent to farmers directly; they hoped to be compensated

with cash, and no land adjustment needed. The information has been sent back to

GPWB and Muzhou town government.

8.3.2 In the Stage of Preparing the Project

In this stage, it has been mainly done to investigate the scale and practicality

indexes of land acquisition and dismantling, and to survey social and economic

situations of persons and regions to be impacted. The random sampling survey on

before-land-acquisition living standard of people who will be impacted has been made.

In the surveying process, it has been done to publicize the preliminary plans for

settlement and compensation, to understand the opinions and demands of persons to

be impacted, to modify settlement plans and compensation standards, and try best to

reduce the negative impacts caused by the project. Public participation works have

been done as follow:

From June 18th to 22nd 2002, in-door interview on residents' households who

will be impacted by Xiniu complex project was carried out. Interviewers made wide

collection of villagers' suggestions on settlement compensation and production

recovery, and gathered these together then reported to related functional departments.

On June 27th 2002, an on-the-spot working conference was held in Yuzui village.

A villager, Mr. Jiang, thought that, settlement with land adjustment couldn't raise

villagers' living standard efficiently, while organizing labor forces and service to

export outside, and if there is one labor in a family doing work in PRD, could shake

off poverty.

From June 23rd to 28th, in-door interview was made on residents who will be

impacted by Lao-long-hu works. Investigators had introduced to villagers the detailed

101

information about the project, national policies about land acquisition and settlement,

and World Bank's policies for settling reluctant migrants. Villagers introduced the

situation of compensation for land acquisition in previous period, and expressed their

comprehension and expectation for settlement. Villagers maintained that agricultural

taxes should be exempted at the same time with land acquisition, and there should be

transparency in handling and use of funds for acquisition. Many villagers thought that

they only wanted to get compensation funds, but didn't require land adjustment from

Villagers Committees.

On June 3rd, Mr. Liang Zhihui, from Wangsan joint stoneyard, reported to

investigators that because of construction of the project, dismantling and moving

docks would cause great impacts on operation of the stoneyard. Mr. Liang suggested

to reduce construction duration as much as possible, or to stagger the dates of

construction and production in stoneyard. Mr. Liang considered that many workers

were employed in all stoneyards, during the period when stoneyards were out of

business, business owner should compensate employees' loss. Investigators have

reported the suggestions to GPWB, and included relative contents into Resettlement

Action Plan of the project.

From July 16th to 17th, business owner, design unit and investigators convened a

conference in Xinhui municipal government, to discuss villagers' suggestions on

selecting means of settlement and reducing land to be acquired. After discussion,

design unit of the project decided to make a modification on design of waterway's

widths and crook-cutting works in Longquan village, to reduce land to be acquired in

the project to the lowest level. Suggestions of villagers and personnel of town

governments have been fully accepted.

On July 28th, Resettlement Action Plan (first draft) was delivered to GPWB, and

in it the villagers' selective suggestions on means of settlement was basically adopted.

Compensation prices for all kinds of used land have been approved by Xinhui Bureau

of Land and Resources and Bureau of Communications, and basically satisfied

villagers' expectations, it will be of advantages to recover and raise both production

and villagers' living standards after land acquisition.

8.3.3 Project Implementation Stage

The major players of this stage are the resettlement offices of all levels, local

governments and relevant department, affected collective, individual and IMO.

In June 2003, the mobilization meeting or consulting meeting will be held at

102

different places to announce the resettlement compensation plan and subsidy standard,

to answer the questions of PAPs, to solicit the opinions and suggests of the village

collective and villagers. The resettlement plan and subsidy standard will be further

modified and will decided on a preliminary resettlement plan.

In August 2003, the designer will submit the final right-of-way of land

acquisition to the project owner and other concerned parties. The resettlement offices

will work out a detailed resettlement plan based on the design and submit to the

municipal government for approval.

In October 2003, all the opinions and suggestions of the PAPs will be

summarized and 2 or more resettlement plans will be offered to the PAPs. The

municipal resettlement office will negotiate with the PAPs one by one and confirm on

the resettlement plan. Finally a resettlement agreement will be signed and the location

of rehabilitation works will be confirmed.

In December 2003, is the resettlement period. The municipal resettlement office

and town government will assist the rehabilitation of affected enterprises, the

relocation of public facilities, and solve the problems arising from the relocation. The

first compensation will be paid out as well.

During February 2004, to deal with the new problems arising from land

acquisition and provide assistance to the PAPs; to rectify the defects of the

resettlement plan; and to distribute the last compensation funds.

In December 2004, IMO will conduct a follow-up sampling survey of the living

standards of the PAPs, the degree of impact, the outstanding difficulties and problems,

and report the situation to the resettlement offices to help the settlement of the

problems.

IMO and internal monitoring organization will supervise the entire process of the

resettlement.
