Latest revision: 12 th May 2010 Page 1 of 16 RSPO NEW PLANTING PROCEDURES Summary Report of SEIA and HCV assessments 1. Executive Summary PT Swadaya Mukti Prakarsa, a subsidiary of First Resources Group is developing approximately 21,019 ha of oil palm plantation which 12,384.28 ha is non‐planted and divided on to three new development areas. The plantation area located at Sub‐District Simpang Hilir, Sub‐District Sei Laur and Sub‐District Simpang Dua within Ketapang District and Kayong Utara district. A comprehensive and participatory independent Social and Environmental Impact Assessment (SEIA) and High Conservation Value (HCV) assessment which include internal and external stakeholders were conducted by RSPO registered assessor from Bogor Agriculture University. The results are incorporated into the operational management planning to develop the new planting. The Independent assessment by RSPO approved/registered assessors results are: - The condition of land cover over new planting area is no longer Primary Forest - The area is categorized as secondary forest, mix plantation, dry land agricultural and bare land, and most of them fall in Other Purpose Use Area (APL) and Convertible Production Forest. - All areas required to maintain or enhance which were identified as HCV - All local people’s land were recognized and involved in SEIA, SIA and HCV field surveys activities Location maps were prepared and presented in the SEIA and HCV assessment reports include all findings and management recommendation from the assessor. The project location is shown in Figure 1 below The SEIA and HCV Summary reports include additional maps showing the topography, landscape, HCV and compensated land. HCV maps constructed include area for buffer and riparian reserve.
