A. Executive Summary
1. Background. The Greater Colombo Water and Wastewater Management Improvement Investment Program – Project 3 (the Investment Program) will complement the efforts of the Government of Sri Lanka to improve water supply and wastewater services to the residents of Greater Colombo. It will also assist the Government in introducing institutional and regulatory reforms in the sector, particularly in Greater Colombo.
2. Project Description. The Greater Colombo Water and Wastewater Management
Improvement Investment Program-P3 (GCWWMIIP-P3) aims at delivering efficient and
reliable urban water supply and sewerage services in Greater Colombo area. The impact of
the Investment Program will be improved quality of life for the residents of Greater
Colombo. This RP focuses only on Waste Water component of theGCWWMIIP-P3. The
expected outcome of Waste Water Component of the overall project will be improvement
wastewater service and management efficiency in Greater Colombo. The expected outputs
this component of the overall project is: (i) rehabilitated and expanded wastewater network
in South and North Catchment Area of Colombo City; (ii) construction of secondary
wastewater treatment plant in the South Catchment Area of Colombo City at Wellawatta
and (iii) strengthened institutional structure and capacity of service provider. The project is
to be implemented over a period of four (4) years, from 2016-2020.
3. The executing agency of the project is the Ministry of Provincial Councils and Local
Government (MPCLG). The implementing agency is Colombo Municipal Council (CMC).
Project Management Unit (PMU) has been already established by the implementing agency
(CMC).
4. The sub-project: The Kirulapone sub-project spans in Kirulapone, Pamankada East and in
part of Kirula, the administrative wards of Colombo Municipality. The project work comprises
of laying 29.40 km of sewer pipelines and construction of two pump stations and connected
force mains. Pipe-laying is limited to 49 sub-project road sections and the lanes linked to
these main 49 sub-project road sections. Two pumping stations have been planned to
establish near Kalinga Mawatha (one of 49 sub-project road sections) and the other in
Talakotuwe Garden again one of the 49 road sections of Kirulapone sub-project.
5. Sub-project implementing area: Most of the sub-project road sections (35 of 49) are less
than 500 M in length. The lengths of the sub-project road sections include 10 roads less
than 250m, 25 roads between 250 M to 500M, 9 roads between 501 M to 750 M and 5
roads more than 750 M. Majority of roads are less than 10 M in their widths. The widths of
sub-project roads include, 3 roads less than 5 M width, 42 roads between 6-10 M , 2 roads
between 11 to 15 M, 1 road about 20 M, the other one more than 20M. Except 2 sub-project
roads all others (47 roads) have lanes linked to the main sub-project roads.
6. Resettlement Plan. The Kirulapone was one of the components of the project 3 for which feasibility report has been prepared. This RP is updated version of the RP prepared during feasibility study. The RP is prepared following the requirement of ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement 2009, and Government of Sri Lanka laws (NIRP 2001).
7. Population in the sub-project roads’ vicinity: Nearly 20 of 49 sub-project roads are
congested due to dense population in the 50 M radius (defined as sub-project road
immediate vicinity in this RP) and the road edges and also due to heavy traffic. The
7
immediate vicinity of other 8 roads are also moderately populated but, not much congested
due to less traffic and less migratory population , 21 roads are located in comparatively
less populated area and these roads are mostly used by the local residents.
8. Ethnic and religious diversity of population: Except 1 sub-project road (Talakotuwe
Gardens) out of 49 the immediate vicinities are occupied mainly by the Sinhalese
community. All the other sub-project roads surrounding areas are occupied by people
belonging to all 3 ethnic categories in the country (Tamil, Sinhala and Muslim).
9. Types of land in the roads’ vicinity: In 38 sub-project roads of 49 the land located in the
vicinity (50M distance from the road edges) are private land with freehold titles. In 10 sub-
project roads land in the vicinity belong to both Government and private parties. In one sub-
project road the land in the immediate vicinity is owned by a government Authority
called National Housing Development Authority (NHDA) that has given its land for the low
income communities to establish residences.
10. Houses located facing the sub-project roads’ edges: The details observed include
below:
In 24 roads about 20 to 40 houses.
In 7 roads less than 20 houses.
In 10 roads 41 to 60 houses.
In 5 roads 61 to 80 houses.
In 3 roads, more than 80 houses.
These houses are located in different distances from the center of the sub-project roads.
The approximate distances observed are as follows:
In 27 of 49 about 2 m to 4 m (these are about 5 to 8 m wide narrow roads).
In 10 roads about 5 to 6 M.
In 9 roads about 7 to 8 m.
In 3 roads about 8 m or little more.
11. Public institutions located in the roads’ vicinity: Only in 9 of 49 sub-project roads
(18%) government institutions are observed in their immediate environments. However, in
one sub-project road there are more than 7 institutions by the side of the road. In all other
roads only 1 to 3 Institutes are observed. These institutes are located about 4m to 6m from
the road centers (depending on the widths of the road).
12. Except 27 sub-project roads all others (22) roads have private institutions located in the
immediate vicinity of roads. Only in one road more than 7 Institutes are observed. All other
roads have less than 3 institutions located in their vicinities. The distance to these private
institutes from the road centers are also similar to government institutes.
13. Twenty four of 49 roads have about 1 to 3 religious institutes located in the vicinity of roads.
These religious centers are located about 2 to 4 m away from the center of each road. In 6
of 49 sub-project roads schools are located in the vicinity. In 4 sub-project roads Bus halts
(structures) have been established in the immediate vicinity.
14. Commercial establishments available in the roads’ vicinity: There is no business
establishments located in the immediate vicinities of 23 sub-project roads. The vicinities of
other sub-project roads (26 roads) include some business establishments. One person has
established a temporary structure in high level road reservation about 15 m away from the
centre of the road. A significant number of mobile vendors operate in 28 of 49 sub-project
roads. Mobile vendors do not use the other 21 roads for their business.
15. Except 30 sub-project roads other 19 are used by three wheeler drivers to park their
vehicles during non-operation times.
8
16. Existing sewerage disposal system in the sub-project area: The area under this sub-
project is not served by Municipal council provided sewerage system. The residents have
their own systems established for disposal of sewerage. In significant number of home
gardens the existing sewerage pits over flow during rainy days. Some householders
discharge the overflowing wastewater from the sewerage pits to the nearby storm water
canals. Not only discharging overflowing waste water to the common water bodies but also
some householders have directly connected their sewerage lines to the storm water canals.
This has created critical health issues in the area. The environment becomes polluted and
odor problems are common during rainy days. The storm water ditches located in the
interior areas of the Under Served Settlements (USS) in Kirulapone area are contaminated
with wastewater and solid waste and odor is not confined only to rainy days.
17. Resettlement issues: Implementation activities in Kalinga Mawatha pumping station will
create IR impacts 4 families ( 2 residential structures and 1 building exclusively used for a
garage,1 family keep cattle in small piece of land within sub-project land , the house of
the cattle owner will not be affected ), Pipe laying activities in D.M. Colombage Mawatha
near Kirulapone rail station will result to displace 5 families ( 2 residential structures with 3
families and 2 housing structures used for residential cum business activities) and
Talakotuwe Pumping station at Talakotuwe Garden road area will result to displace 6
housing structures ( 5 residential structures and 1 residential cum business structure). The
UDA has expressed its willingness to accommodate the evacuated families in sub-project
road areas (Kalinga Mawatha, rail road reservation and Talakotuwe Garden area) in their
newly established Condominium, Salamulla in Predeepa road. Therefore, the GCWMIIP
develops this RP and commit to provide necessary funding and other supports to resettle
the sub-project affected families in UDA built condominium in Salamulla. The PMU of
GCWMIIP will monitor the resettlement and post resettlement process during the project
period.
18. The command areas in some of the sub-project roads are densely populated. There will be
serious access difficulties in such roads during construction period. Similarly, some other
roads are significantly congested with high traffic. Nearly 13 of 49 sub-project roads are
narrow and access difficulties are presently experienced during peak hours.
19. The Mitigatory measures planned to implement: Out of 15 project affected total families
13 will be resettled with compensation in accordance with the policies of the country and the
ADB. One of other 2 families is involved in running a business venture, garage in a building
structure and one person using small piece of project land as cattle keeping yard but, they
are not living in the proposed project land. The operation activities of the Garage (three
wheel repair place) are carried out by a person called Anna Deheer, a Bachelor on informal
mutual agreement between owner and the present operator. The Owner of the Garage is
living in Dematagoda area again in UDA provided house. Therefore, the owner will only be
paid compensation for the loss of structure and business activities and they will not be
resettled in UDA condominium. The cattle owner will be paid compensation for lost
livelihood until he finds an alternative place for his livelihood activity currently performed in
public land as encroacher. The GCWMIIP will have the Urban Development Authority’s
(UDA) support to resettle the affected 10 families in their newly built condominium in
Salamulla, Predeepa Mawatha. Two families of 6 in Talakotuwe Garden will be given option
to select either to get resettled in UDA built condominium or to resettle in an area which they
prefer. These two families are residing in lands with freehold titles.
20. There will be need to acquire 2 private land plots in proposed pumping station in Talakotuwe
Gardens. In all other locations sub-project activities will be implemented in public lands.
21. Entitlement matrix has been developed and included in this RP following the policies of the
ADB (2009) and the Sri Lankan government policies on resettlement (2001). The
compensation will be paid for the affected persons before commencement of the sub-project
implementation activities in their areas.
9
22. Measures will be implemented to address the problems of street vendors and three wheel
operators during the project implementation period. Steps will be taken to minimize the
likelihood negative impacts on the road based livelihood activities and other disturbances.
Appropriate construction technologies and other construction site management strategies will
be used to address such disturbances. Through the contract the construction contractors will
be made responsible to minimize and address damages to the structures and other
disturbances to the livelihood activities of the road users and nearby residences. The PMU
and DSIDC will have continuous monitoring of livelihood related disturbances and will take
necessary actions to minimize those.
23. The project has already established required institutional system to implement the RP.
Monitoring system is also in place for guiding the implementation of the RPs.
To implement the suggested mitigation measures in sub-project area Rs.58.44 Million is allocated.
B. Project Description 1. The main component of the project involves physical construction works. The works are
mostly limited to upgrading existing sewerage infrastructure within existing physical facilities and construction of new sewerage system in some selected un- served areas falling under Colombo Municipal Council. The sub-components include: (I)Wastewater system rehabilitated and expanded in south catchment area of Colombo (pumping stations and pumping mains),( II) Secondary wastewater treatment plant constructed in south catchment area of Colombo and (III) Institutional structure and capacity of service providers strengthened.
2 In case of upgrading and new construction works within existing physical facilities (mainly on
public roads) the main focus is to minimize the resettlement impacts. Minimizing resettlement
issues will be achieved through the selection of appropriate construction technologies and
proper management of construction sites. This will be done by the contractors under the
guidance of construction supervision team.
24. This report includes resettlement issues that may emerge during the physical construction
work carried out in Kirulapone sub-project falling within Colombo Municipal council area (CMC
area). Kirulapone sub-project is one of the main components of the main project for which
Feasibility report was prepared in 2012. Kirulapone area will be provided with new sewerage
infrastructure for collection and disposal of sewage. Some general information such as legal
framework, institutional arrangements and other relevant aspects common to the overall
project is also covered in this RP. This RP includes details on the 100% census (household
survey) conducted with affected persons/households. The project induced impacts on
livelihoods of the people were carefully investigated and mitigation measures are suggested
in detail.
25. Within the main sewered area of Colombo city, there are a number of areas that are not
connected to the main sewers. Connecting these areas to the main sewer system will help to
meet the basic sanitation needs of the people; contribute to improvements in the local
environment; reduce the pollution of the city’s heavily polluted canals/waterways and increase
the access of poor households to urban infrastructure facilities. The storm water main canals
and small ditches located in interior areas of USSs are heavily polluted creating significant
health related risks especially in low income slum and shanty communities.
26. To address the above mentioned causes, as one of the project components of GCWMIIP,
Kirulapone un-sewered area will be connected to the Colombo sewer network. Design
Supervision and Management Consultant (DSC) of GCWMP has prepared designs for
“Laying and construction of Gravity Sewers, Force Mains and Pump Stations of Kirulapone
Catchment Area within Colombo Municipality” as a sub-project under GCWMIIP and for that,
the environmental approval from Central Environment Authority has been obtained.
27 The sub-project area of “Laying and construction of Gravity Sewers, Force Mains and Pump Stations of Kirulapone Catchment Area within Colombo Municipality” spans in Kirulapone,
10
Pamankada East and in part of Kirula, the administrative wards of Colombo Municipality. The design related details such as size of the pipes to be laid; pipe alignments for different sections; available ROW; etc. are mentioned in Annex 14.
27. The sub-project work comprises of laying 29.04 km of sewer pipelines using dig and non-dig
(trenchless) methods and construction of two pump stations (Annex 1). The Kirulapone sub-
project implementing area spreads in 49 public road sections and also 2 other locations to
establish pumping stations. The details of public road sections and locations of pumping
stations are included Table 1 and the locations the sewer lines are shown in a map attached
as figure 1.

1) Mobilization of heavy machinery
2) Discharging of dewatered water
3) Excavations along roads
4) Laying of pipelines
5) Construction and/or placement of Manholes
6) Disposal of excavated materials
7) Stacking of stock pile materials
8) Trench backfilling and compaction
9) Excavations alongside the canal bank roads
10) Excavation for pump station foundations
11) Construction of pump stations
12) Construction of site offices (temporary)
Estimated investment cost of GCWMP is 228.02 million US Dollars and is funded by the Asian
Development Bank (ADB). Engineering estimation of the sub-project - “Laying and construction
of Gravity Sewers, Force Mains and Pump Stations of Kirulapone Catchment Area within
Colombo Municipality” is around 42 million US Dollars.
31 Socio economic background of the selected sub project areas: Twenty sub-project
roads of 49 are located in densely populated area and also these road sections are heavily
congested due to traffic flow from other connected roads. Eight of sub-project roads are
moderately populated and the command areas of these road sections are not heavily
populated and also there is less traffic coming from other connected roads. Twenty one of 49
sub-project roads are located in calm environment where less population and also no outside
traffic is observed. These road sections are mainly used by the residents in their command
areas. The 3 locations where resettlement issues observed are located in 3 sub-project road
sections mentioned in table 1 (Annex 2 and 8 for Google Maps and Sketches drawn by the
RP perpetrators) . Therefore, the socio-economic condition of these 3 locations with
resettlement issues are described in 49 sub-project road sections ( Kalinga Mawatha,
Index No 20, D.M.Colombage Mawatha Index No 19 and Thalakotuwe Garden Index No 7)
12
The 3 locations with project created resettlement issues are shown in Google earth maps
annexed as figures 1, 2 and 3.

Figure 3- Rail road reservation in Colombage Mawatha
Note: House number 1 mentioned in figure 3 is occupied by 2 families including one
granddaughter recently married. Therefore in rail road reservation there are 4 housing
structures occupied by 5 families that are to be resettled.
32 Ethnic diversity : Except Talakotuwe sub-project road ( Index number 7- please see table 1
for the index numbers assigned to the sub-project roads sections ) where command are is
occupied by about 50% of Muslim and Balapokuna place road ( index Number 30) in which
command is occupied by 100% Sinhalese in all other roads, communities belong to all 3
ethnic groups are residing but, in every case most of them are Sinhalese
33 Employment and income: The resettlement survey team in their visits to the 49 sub-
project sections attempted at categorizing the area as high, moderate and low in terms of
economic status of the communities residing in the immediate vicinity. The types of houses,
types of vehicles owned and other appliances of the households were used as parameters for
this crude categorization. In this attempt it was observed that 28 roads of 49 are located in
upper income community area. Another 19 roads (39%) are located in moderate income area
and the balance 2 roads (4%) are in low income areas. One significant observation was
availability of significant number of small houses located in interior areas of these 2 roads
(Low income communities-slum and shanty).

C. Scope of Land Acquisition and Resettlement
34. The Project's physical construction works in 49 road sections do not require land acquisition.
Land acquisition is required for 2 pumping stations at Thalakotuwe Gardens and Kalinga
Mawatha and one pipe laying road section in D.M. Colombage Mawatha. All the lands except
2 private plots in Talakotuwe Garden pumping station to be acquired in these 3 locations are
government land (land in D.M.Colombage Mawatha belong to Department of Railway and in
other two location land belong to UDA/NHDA). The no objection letters to use these
Government Lands for the sub-project obtained from respective institutions are attached as
Annexes 15, 16 and 17. The gravity sewer new lines will use trenchless technology and also
open cut approach. Trenchless technology will be used to minimize the resettlement impacts.
The RP assumes, the 10KM length of proposed new sewer line will use trenchless technology
and the remaining will use open cut for sewerage construction work. Open cut rehabilitation
also will not require land acquisition except a small belt of rail reservation (Government land)
in D.M. Colombage Mawatha. Where there is sufficient road width comprising 4 or more
lanes, traffic can be managed to ensure that works will not result in temporary access loss.
For two-lane roads, there can be potential temporary impacts related to access disruptions.
Except 3 sub-project road sections ( index numbers 12,14 and 49) in which road width is
more than 11 M in all other roads there can be access difficulties during construction period.
The situation can be much significant in 3 sub-project road sections in which road width is
less than 5 Meters (index numbers 4, 30 and 45 in table 1).
35. There will be resettlement issues in 3 locations, 1) pumping station near Kalinga Mawatha
and also near the new condominium (high-rise housing scheme) being built by UDA, 2) Near
Kirulapone rail line/Kirulapone rail station on D.M.Colombage Mawatha (one of 49 sub-
project road sections- index number 19 in table1) and 3) Land occupied by 6 householders in
Talakotuwe Gardens (Index No 7 in Table 1). The following resettlement issues will crop up
in these 3 locations due to implementation of sub-project activities.

Not residing within the sub-project land
but about 25 Square Meters area of the
sub-project land has been using as
cattle keeping yard
Note all these building structures (3) need to be demolished to use for the proposed
pumping station.
Kirulapone rail way line-near railway station of Kirulapone: 5 families in 4
housing structures of government land (rail way line reservation). Two of these 4
structures are exclusively used for residential purposes and the other 2 are used for
residence cum business activities. The 5th family is sharing a housing structure of his
grandmother (he will be paid rental). The PMU has sent a letter to get confirmation
from respective Government Authority (DS) on the stay of this family as a renter in
15
house belongs to Grandmother. Response of the divisional Secretary will be obtain
before implementation of RP
Proposed pumping station in Thalakotuwe Gardens- 6 families residing in 6
houses and 1 out of 6 of these structures is used for residence cum business
activities. These are the houses provided by the National Housing Development
Authority (NHDA). Two of these 6 families (Welaudan Wadiwel Achchie and W.R.
Grace) have freehold titles for the land plots they have used for the houses and one
family has lease hold provided by NHDA.
The 10 residential structures will be relocated in high-rise building built by UDA at Salamulla,
Predeepa Mawatha. This information has been conveyed to the affected householders in
Kalinga Mawatha and Railway station by UDA and Talakotuwe Garden by the NHDA. Apart
from information shared by the RP preparatory team with APs the UDA/NHDA has conducted
several awareness sessions to the affected families in the 2 locations since it is a land
belongs to UDA/NHDA and the UDA needs the lands to hand over to CMC to establish the
proposed 2 pumping stations. The UDA also has visited the 5 families residing in rail
reservation in which the land belongs to the Department of Rail way (Rail Road reservation).
The garage owner in Kalinga Mawatha needs not to have alternative residence because he is
living somewhere else in Colombo and the affected building is used only for a garage. He has
been informed by UDA about the need for evacuation. He has agreed to evacuate at any time
requested by the legal land owner, UDA and the project. He will be paid monitory
compensation at replacement cost to reestablish his garage in other location. He (Garage
owner) is aware of his responsibility to find an alternative location to reestablish his garage.
He also will be paid livelihood assistance for some period of time. One of the families residing
just outside of the boundary of the Kalinga Mawatha land identified for pumping station has
a cattle yard ( just piece of land not a structure) in which he keeps 3 buffalos and 8 cows.
His house will not be affected by the sub-project implementation. This family also will be
compensated for income forgone from Cattle shed for sometimes (during evacuation period).
The 2 families in rail reservation in D.M. Colombage Mawatha that use small spaces in their
residences to run small boutiques ( retail shops) will be provided with alternative houses in
the high-rise building and also they will be provided with livelihood assistance for certain
period of time.
36. The potential temporary impacts of open trench excavations would cause access disruption
for: (i) residents, (ii) businesses and clients, (iii) vehicles, and (iv) institutions and their clients
and all other road users. These types of negative but, temporary impacts will be common to
all 49 sub-project road sections including 2 pumping stations (Near Kalinga Mawatha and also
in Talakotuwe Gardens area). These negative impacts will be mitigated through good
construction practices which will be the responsibility of construction contractors. Measures
suggested to mitigate disturbances during construction phase include: (i) leaving spaces for
access between mounds of soil, (ii) providing walkways and metal sheets to maintain access
across trenches for people and vehicles where required, (iii) increasing the workforce in front
of critical areas such as institutions, (iv) consulting business and institutions regarding
operating hours and factoring this in work schedules, (v) providing advance information on
works to be undertaken including appropriate signages, and (vi) coordination with CMC Traffic
and Roads Safety Division and also with Traffic division of Sri Lanka Police for necessary
16
rerouting of traffic and traffic management, and ensuring appropriate signages and policing of
traffic.1
37. Except 30 sub-project roads other 19 are used by three wheeler drivers to park their vehicles
during non-operation times. These parks may have to move from these sub-project roads to
other areas temporary to continue their routine activities until sub-project pipe laying activities
are completed. If so, they will be assisted to establish temporary parks in other roads or
motivated to operate their activities in other locations of Kirulapone/Colombo.
38. This is similar with mobile venders who travel along the sub-project roads for selling their
vegetables, fish and fruits (main products they sell) to the local communities. A significant
number of mobile vendors operate in 28 of 49 sub-project roads. Mobile vendors do not use
21 roads for their business walks. In narrow sub-project roads there will be difficulties for this
group to operate their livelihood activities in certain days. Therefore, this group will be
assisted in motivation to use other roads in the neighboring area and also they are provided
with information on construction activities to avoid critical times in walking through the sub-
project roads. This problem will not arise in wider roads with about 15 to 20 meters but, in
roads with 5-7 Meter widths this will be an issue to be addressed.
39. The access road to Kalinga Mawatha proposed pumping station is extremely narrow and
following specific temporary impacts can be expected during construction phase of
Kalinga Mawatha :

D. Socio-economic information This section includes general socio-economic situation in sub-project area and specific details
on 3 locations where resettlement issues are observed.
General socio-economic situation in sub-project area
40b. The Resettlement study team observed the features in the immediate vicinity of sub-project’s
road sections including the vicinity of 2 pumping stations and documented such features
(houses, all other common buildings and people using the sub-project roads for some income
generation activities). The information collected from the immediate vicinities of the sub-
projects' roads would be useful for the RP implementers to understand the socio-economic
characteristics of the sub-project areas.
41. Other essential activity done by the resettlement team was conducting household surveys
( including detail measurement survey) with all the families who will have absolute negative
impacts due to sub-project . This information is also included in this section in detail for the
users of the RP to deal with the affected parties during RP implementation phase.
Resettlement issues were found only in 3 locations of the sub-project, Pumping station in
Kalinga Mawatha, Rail road reservation in D.M. Colombage Mawatha and the land proposed
for pumping station in Talakotuwe Gardens.

42. Settlements located in the vicinities of sub-project road sections and 2 pumping stations
Population: About 20 sub-project roads are located in densely populated command area.
Another 21 sub-project road areas are in low populated area. The names of the sub-project
roads located in densely, moderate and less populated areas are shown in table 3.

Note – Kalinga Mawatha pumping station and D.M. Colombage Mawatha –Road index numbers
20 and 19 respectively are also located in densely populated environment but, Talakotuwe
Garden pumping station located in Talakotuwe Garden road (Index No 7) is not densely
populated. It is close to the high Level road.
43. Ethnic diversity : Except Talakotuwe sub-project road ( Index number 7) where command are is
occupied by about 50% of Muslim and Balapokuna place road in which command is occupied by
100% Sinhala, in all other roads communities belong to all 3 ethnic groups are residing but, in
every case most of them are Sinhala.
45. Land and houses: Nearly 38 of 49 sub-project roads are located in an environment where land
used for home gardens are private properties with freehold titles. One sub-project road (ID
number 47), Sri Siddhartha Road is located in an area in which most of the lands are government
properties. Another 10 roads are located in areas where some householders have encroached
government land and others are in private land.
46. Houses: The houses located in the immediate vicinity of roads (facing to the road edges) were
calculated in each sub-project road to have understanding on the degree of significance of this
issue. About 24 of 49 sub-project roads have between 20-40 houses located facing to the road
edges. The number of houses located facing to the road edges and the relevant roads are shown
in table 4.

Note: There is one small mobile vendor (in Kalinga Mawatha in front of Badrakali Kovil) involved in
selling flowers to the visitors of the Badrakali Kovil and this structure may have to be shifted during
construction phase of the project. This person will be paid compensation for 2 weeks time until pipe
laying in front of his business location is completed. He can shift his mobile structure back to the same
place after completion of the pipe laying activities in front of his business location.
55. Three wheel parks: Except 30 sub-project roads other 19 are used by three wheeler drivers to
park their vehicles during non-operation times. These parks may have to move from these sub-
project roads to other areas temporary to continue their routine activities until sub-project pipe
laying activities are completed. In some roads that have wider widths the three wheel drivers may
be able to continue their routine activities. The sub-project roads used by three wheel drivers to
park their vehicles are mentioned in table 7.

Note: It was found impossible for a questionnaire survey covering 100% of specific mobile vendors since they are not confined only to specific sub-project roads, they walk across these roads. We discussed with many of them and they are willing to use other neighboring roads during the construction period.
23
This is same with operators of three wheel parks, they also have opportunities to operate their activities in other neighboring roads ( the roads within sub-project implementing area are managed by CMC and therefore, the CMC can facilitate the three wheel operators to park their wheels in neighboring roads during construction period) . Issuing identification cards will not be possible because both mobile vendors and three wheel operators get changed frequently. The contractors and PMU will facilitate them to operate from other neighboring roads. This has been the most appropriate mitigatory measure being adopted in other development projects in Greater Colombo with regard to mobile vendors and three wheel operators. The details included in the RP on mobile vendors and three wheel operators are base on the interviews held with mobile vendors and three wheel operators available on each road on particular days visited to the sub-project relevant roads. Resettlement issues of sub-project
56. Socio-economic profile of project affected people Resettlement issues are found only in 3
locations of the sub-project area. These 3 locations include i) Pumping station proposed at the
end of Kalinga Mawatha (Kalinga Mawatha is one of 49 sub-project road sections use to lay
pipes), near the condominium being built by UDA, ii) Rail road reservation on D.M. Colombage
Mawatha (D.M. Colombage Mawatha is also one of 49 sub-project road sections) and iii)
Talakotuwe Gardens pumping station in Talakotuwe Gardens road. The PMU of the project has
received permission from the Sri Lanka Railway (CGR) to use its reservation for installation of
pipe line (Letter No GD530/GEN/Vol ii/Del 2017 dated 5-4-2017). The CGR has also requested
the project to pay Rs 535474 as cost for their administrative inputs and taxes for the first 5 years.
The CMC can use this reservation for long term and after 5 years Rs 250/= per year should be
paid for CGR for long term use.
57. The Socio-economic profiles of affected households in each sub-project affected location are
described below:
58. Kalinga Mawatha (Pumping station): The land proposed for pumping station is a land belongs
to UDA. It is located in back side of Ratanarama Temple and it can be reached through a narrow
road in front of Amman Kovil (religious center).

Note: The average monthly income of two affected families ranges from Rs. 29,500 to Rs. 70,000.
Householders (the chief householders) are regular employees and therefore, they are not considered
as poor in this analysis. In government national poverty alleviation program called “Samurdhi” the
families that are drawing Rs 3000 or below as monthly income are defined as poor that are entitled for
the benefits under the program. The average family size in Sri Lanka is 4 and the size of 4 families is
5 each and therefore, they are not poor in any of the poverty aspects. The official poverty line of the
government is Rs 3000 per capita monthly expenditure in Colombo district. The householder of 4th
family is disable but, he works in flower shop as assistant.

Information on the other likelihood affected communities in Kirulapone sub-project area
62. The routine operations of mobile venders and three wheel drivers will be disturbed during
construction period. Twenty three of 49 sub-project roads have business structures close to the
edges of the roads. There will be no need to displace any of them but, their routine business
activities may have some disturbances during construction phase. The mobile vendors operate
their daily business activities in 28 sub-project roads that are described in table 7 in this chapter.
Their livelihood activities also may be disturbed temporary during construction phase. Similarly,
in 19 sub-project roads three wheel drivers have established their parks and these parks may
also be disturbed. The details of these three wheel parks are mentioned in table 8 of this
chapter.
Other Public, Cultural, Historical and Archeological locations likely be affected in the sub-
project area
73. Government Institutions: The immediate vicinity of 40 sub-project roads of 49 is free from
government institutes. Only in 9 sub-project roads the government institutions are observed in
the immediate environments of the roads. The information on availability of government
institutions in the immediate vicinity of sub-project roads is shown in table 10 in this chapter.
74. The distance to Government Institutions from the roads: In 3 sub-project roads (ID numbers
33, 38 and 46) the government institutes are located about 4.6 M away from the roads ‘center. In
other 6 sub-project roads the government institutes are located more than 6 M far from the sub-
project roads (These roads include, ID numbers 12, 22, 26, 28, 48, and 49).
75. Private Institutions: Except 27 sub-project roads all others (22) have private institutions located
in the immediate vicinity of road edges. The information specific to each road on availability of
private institutions in the road vicinity is shown in table 11 of this chapter.
76. The distance to private institutions from the sub-project roads: Private institutes in 7 sub-
project roads (ID numbers 12, 22, 26, 27, 32, 38, and 49) are located more than 6 M away from
the roads ‘center. The institutions in other 6 roads (ID Numbers 2, 14,18,33,46 and 48) are
located about 4 to 6 M away from the roads. These institutions in balance 9 roads (ID numbers
8, 9,13,20,24,34,36,43 and 45) are located about 2 to 4 M away from the roads’ centers.
77. Schools located in the sub-project ‘vicinity: Schools are located in the vicinity of 6 sub-project
roads. The specific details of these places are described above in this chapter.
78. Likelihood disturbances to the functions of Bus halts: Bus halts are located in the immediate
vicinity of 4 sub-project roads (High level road -ID no 26, Baseline road -ID no 49, Kirulapone
Avenue -ID no 2, and Stafford Road -ID no 46).
79. Religious and other public institutions: Majority of the sub-project roads (25) do not have
religious or sensitive institutes such as hospitals in the vicinity. About 22 roads have 1 to 3
religious institutes and another 2 sub-project roads have 4 to 6 number of institutes in the
immediate vicinity. The information on the specific sub-project roads where religious and other
sensitive institutions such as hospitals located is shown in table 12. No sub-project roads have
hospitals in their vicinity. A Buddhist temple and Sri Badrakali Hindu Kovil are located on the
edges of access road to proposed Kalinga Mawatha pumping station. There can be disturbances
to these religious centers during construction phase of the project. The contractors will be advised
to minimize the possible disturbances by avoiding construction activities during special religious
days, carry out construction activities during nights and accelerating the construction work in front
of religious centers.
29
80. All the other religious institutions available in 24 sub-project roads are located more than 2 M
away from the road centers.
Nature of properties affected
81. Affected strictures are found only in 3 locations of the sub-project implementing area as described
above in this chapter. These 3 locations include proposed Kalinga Mawatha pumping station,
Rail road reservation in D.M.Colombage Mawatha and Talakotuwe Garden pumping station. The
types of structures affected in each location are summarized below.
82. Kalinga Mawatha pumping station: Details of the structures affected are mentioned below:
Name of the owner Use of the structure Floor area Roof and Walls
W.A. Thilak Rohana Residence 180m2 Asbestos roofs, plank walls and
cement floors

The details of these building structures are shown in Table 1 of Annex 4 (PAP list).
83. Rail road reservation on D.M. Colombage Mawatha: Four building structures will be affected in
this location (2 used as residences cum boutiques and 2 used only for residences). The specific
details of the affected building structures are given in Annex 4 in PAP list and the summary is shown
below;
Structure 1 (W. A. Chandrawathi) – 30m2

Acquisition of Land
30
87. Land is required for sub-project implementation in 3 locations, Kalinga Mawatha and Talakotuwe
Garden for proposed pumping stations and rail road reservation to install sewerage pipeline.
Except 2 private land plots with freehold titles in Talakotuwe Garden (belongs to Grace and
Wadiwel Achchie) all other land plots are government properties encroached by present users
and therefore, there is no need to compensate for acquisition of such lands. The 2 land plots need
to be acquired with compensation.
The project induced impacts on other livelihood activities
88. Some disturbances to the frequent users of the sub-project roads will be inevitable during the
project construction phase. But, these disturbances will not be equally significant in all the sub-
project’s road sections. The road width is the critical factor in this issue. The contractors of the
sub-project will be made responsible to implement measures to minimize all the access difficulties
to the road users. Available alternative access facilities would be useful to address the issues
related to access difficulties for frequent road users during project construction period. Access to
reach residential areas and service delivery institutions such as schools, Markets, Banks, Religious
institutes will be disturbed. The construction contractors will be made legally responsible to repair
any damages caused to the structures located in the construction sites due to their activities. This
will indirectly influence the construction contractors to carry out their activities with extreme care to
the properties in the construction sites.
Other measures suggested by the stakeholders consulted to mitigate the serious access
difficulties
89. Among 49 subproject’s roads and 2 Pumping stations included in this RP, the access difficulties
will be serious in 3 sub-project roads ( ID numbers 4 to 30 and 45) in which road width is less than
5 M. The stakeholders especially, the community leaders residing in 49 sub-project road areas
including 2 pumping stations made following suggestions to address the access related difficulties:
Work actively with relevant line agencies to make joint efforts to address negative impacts
on common amenities, such as drinking water pipe lines, Telecom lines and Power lines (
relevant to all 49 road sub-project road sections)
Explore possibilities to use alternative roads as access to the houses and other public and
private institutions ( relevant especially to the road sections with ID numbers
38,39,42,48,12,13,24,26,28,29,30,31,32,33)
Explore technical feasibility to complete pipe laying work section by section of the sub-project
roads to address the issues of access difficulties. Relevant to road sections with ID Numbers
29,32,34,35,38,1,3,5,6,7,9,10,39,44,45,46,11,12,16,19,20,21,48,22,24, 25, 27, 28,31)
Carry out construction activities during school holidays (relevant to road sections with ID
numbers 7,32,47)
Avoid construction activities during days of special religious functions (Poya days), Relevant
to road sections with ID numbers 7, 18,20,30,47. This issue is critical on the road access to
Kalinga Mawatha Pumping station. This road section runs through Hindu Kovil and Buddhist
Temple and therefore, contractors will have to be careful in carrying construction work to
install pipes.
Provide alternative access to the affected households and other institutions (such as steel
plats). Relevant to all 49 road sections but, especially for the road sections with ID Numbers
10,11,26,32,48)
Keep one side of the road undisturbed during construction to provide access to the road
users. Relevant to all 49 sub-project road sections but, specific to road sections with ID
numbers 2,6,9,16,17,22,23,25,27,35,36,40,41,46,49)
Complete construction within the planned time period, Relevant to all 49 sections of the roads
but, critical on road sections with ID numbers 10,11,13,15,16,35,40,49
31
Perform construction work during night times, relevant to road sections with ID numbers
11,19,22,25,38,42,46,48,49
Positive interactions with communities in the construction area, relevant to all 49 road
sections but, specific to road sections with ID numbers 16,22,25,30,34,41,45)
Likelihood project induced negative impacts on street vendors and Three Wheel operators
90. The information on street vendors and three wheel operators have been mentioned in the
beginning of this chapter. Therefore, the stakeholder suggestions to address the likelihood
disturbances to their livelihood activities are discussed below.
The moveable structure in High level road, Kirulapone Avenue ( Lottery seller), can be shifted to another location during rehabilitation period to avoid the potential negative impacts and to allow the contractors to work on the project activities (The owner of this structure is in agreement to do so, if required ). Anyway the structure in high-level road is located about 15 M away from the center of the road and therefore, there will be possibility to avoid the possible disturbances. The owner of the structure in Kirulapone Avenue is in agreement to shift his structure to other side of the road or any other area possible during construction period. There is another mobile structure in The same road, Kirulapone avenue another moveable very small is being used by one lady to sell Beatle etc and she is also in agreement to shift her very small structure from the road.
Mobile vendors (operate without structures on pavements of the road) and Three Wheel operators will have some difficulties to perform their livelihood activities during construction period of the project. Three wheel parks are found in 19 sub-project road sections and mobile vendors operate in 28 road sections in the sub-project implementing area. The mobile venders will have difficulties to carry out their business activities as usual in some days during construction period. They will be provided with construction related time schedules in each sub-project road section for them to plan their routine activities in accordance to the construction schedules. They also will be able to use other sub-roads connected to the project roads as alternative routes for their business activities. They will also have possibilities to reach the same customers /communities through the alternative access roads mentioned. The mobile venders consulted are in agreements to accept the alternative measures to address their potential negative impacts. They also contributed to suggest alternative measures.
The three Wheel operators will also be informed about the time table of the construction activities for them to plan shifting of their Three Wheel parks to other undisturbed locations of the same road. Once the rehabilitation activities in front of Three Wheel Parks are over they can come back to the same location. The three wheel operators also can use neighboring roads to park their three wheels as temporary measure. The project implementers will assist the Three Wheel operators to address their problems during construction phase.
The likelihood impacts on the land-use in the project area
91. The present land use pattern in 3 locations will change due to proposed sub-project activities. In
all other sub-project road sections public roads will be used to install sewerage pipes and there
will be no change on the existing land use. The possible changes on the land use pattern on 3
locations are mentioned below:
Proposed pumping station in Kalinga Mawatha: The public land has been used to
establish 3 building structures and one cattle yard (one house cum garage and one house
and one structure exclusively used for a garage) and these existing structures will be
demolished to use for the sub-project activities, pumping station. Therefore, existing land use
in the government land will be changed.
32
Rail road reservation in D.M. Colombage Mawatha : The rail road reservation has been
used to establish 4 housing structures and this land use will get changed due to demolition
of these structures and use the land for installing pipe lines.
Proposed pumping station in Talakotuwe Garden: The Talakotuwe Garden is being used
for 6 housing structures and they will have to be demolished for the construction of proposed
pumping station.
Project impacts on poor, indigenous and /or ethnic minorities, and other vulnerable groups
92. There are no sub-project affected households in 48 of 49 sub-project road sections but in 1 sub-
project road section (D.M. Colombage Mawatha) and 2 pumping stations (Kalinga Mawatha and
Talakotuwe Garden ) some houses need to be displaced for project implementation. The
vulnerability of these households is discussed in this section.
Poverty

Note – * Official poverty line in Colombo is Rs. 3000 per person a month. The per capita income of the
4 affected families is well above the official poverty line of the country.
94. The family 1 and 4 (headed by disable males) are socially vulnerable. These families will be
treated specifically in the process of evacuation them from their current residences during project
implementation phase. Although the chief householders are disable persons other family
members are there to help them during evacuation and post- resettlement phase according to the
information received from the chief householders in the resettlement survey. However, special
33
attentions will be paid to these families to minimize their negative impacts due to proposed
evacuation process.

line 3 of 5 families are socially vulnerable due to heading of a female who will have to face with some
difficulties due to demolition of their houses. Therefore, they will be provided with specific assistance
during evacuation and resettlement process. There will be no need to pay ex-gratia payment but,
assistance for organizing actions to address the evacuation and resettlement related negative issues.
Families 3 and 4 have other members to help the female heads of households in implementing the
activities needed for managing the implications of the evacuation and resettlement process. But, the
family 1 headed by an old lady does not have other members to help. Therefore, she will be paid
specific attention helping during evacuation and resettlement process. Fifth family is staying in the
house belongs to family 1 as a renter.

Note: Except family 1 all other families draw monthly income far beyond the national poverty level (Rs.
3000 per capita income). The family one is headed by a sick woman and also their family income is
far below the national poverty level. This family will be provided with all the needed additional
assistance in evacuation and resettlement and also post –resettlement process to mitigate
resettlement related negative impacts.
97. Indigenous people: The proposed subproject will not create any impacts on indigenous people/
groups. Indigenous people are not living in the sub-project area or even in Colombo District.
98. Minorities and other vulnerable groups: Communities belong to Muslim; Sinhala and Tamil
ethnic groups are residing in the catchment areas of the sub-project related road sections. Tamil
and Muslim are minorities but, minorities in the country have equal access to institutions and
other economic opportunities. Therefore, they are not at all vulnerable just because they are
minorities.
One of the affected householders in Kalinga Mawatha is an ex-army person identified as
disabled. Similarly, in Talakotuwe garden one of the chief householders has been identified as
disabled due to illness. The UDA does not have procedure mandatory to allocate housing units
in ground floors to the disable householders. The UDA will explore all the possibilities to do so.
However, 24 hour operated Lift to access each floor is available. This lift has capacities to cater
all the residents in the condominium. Therefore, disable persons in the houses will not face with
problem of using staircases to reach their housing units. The disabled members are given priority
for shifting once the UDA condominiums are constructed. This condition has been informed to
UDA and PMU will monitor it during RP implementation. .
99. Gender and Resettlement impacts: In Kalinga Mawatha project affected families are headed by
male. There will be no specific impacts on these families due to gender issues. In Rail road
reservation out of 5 families 3 are headed by females but, woman head of fourth family is
employed and her family earns Rs. 40,000 a month and she is also not disable due to age
factor . Other 2 families are headed by old age women and they are considered as socially
vulnerable due to their age factor. In Talakotuwe Garden family 1, family 3, and family 5 are
headed by females but, family 5 is not socially or economically vulnerable because even
though the wife is the chief householder husband is there in the family to help. In family 1, the
woman is widow and she is sick. The woman in family 3 is employee of private sector and her
father is in the community itself to help her.
36
100. All these affected families are willing to shift to flats in condominium built by Urban Development
Authority (UDA). The UDA has already agreed CMC to provide flats for the families evacuated
from Kirulapone sub-project implementing area.
The written consent from the affected families (chief householders) will be available to move to the UDA built condominium. The consent of replacement cost for garage demolition in Kalinga Mawatha will also be made available before commencement of RP implementation. This is being done by PMU. This activity will take some time and it can be completed before commencement of RP implementation phase. The consent letters will be submitted to ADB once they are obtained from all relevant APs. Without their consents resettlement will not be carried out by the project. The replacement cost for Garage demolition in Kalinga Mawatha will be further reviewed by a committee comprised of CMC engineer, Assistant secretary of the Ministry of provincial Councils and Local Government, Sociologist of PMU and finalized the cost with agreement of the AP. This will also be done before commencement of RP implementation and consent letter will be submitted to ADB along with consent letters from all other APs.
101. However, a gender action plan has been developed under the main project, (Greater Colombo
phase 2) during feasibility stage to address some likelihood issues that might emerge during
construction phase of sub-projects. It will be implemented during construction phase and
therefore, gender sensitive activities will be implemented with care in the sub-project area.
There will be possibility for resettlement of affected families in 3 locations directly in the UDA
built condominium. The temporary relocation in rented- in houses has been proposed as
contingency mechanism to facilitate the timely implementation of the proposed sub-project. This
issue was discussed with UDA and they have previous experience in resettlement of
development project affected people in rented- in-houses until their housing schemes are
completed. The most feasible and preferred mechanism is providing flexibility for the affected
families to find the rented- in houses in suitable locations in the area they prefer. This is
possible according to the discussions we had with AP families mainly because of long term
social capitals (social relations) they have developed in Colombo area. Therefore, in this sub-
project also the AP families will be given such opportunity to implement their own arrangements
to find suitable houses and this is the most preferred option by them. Each household will be
provided with Rs 25,000/ month for 6 months’ period as one- off payment to find a suitable
house and this is the ongoing market rate for the type of a house they can afford to rent in
Colombo area. Compare to the extremely small houses they stay at present they will be able to
rent houses with little more space with Rs.25, 000/month. According to the discussions held
with UDA the proposed temporary stay in rented- in houses period can be considered as
contingency measure if in any case the construction activities of condominium will not be
completed by the time of commencing the construction activities in sub-project area which is
highly unlikely according to the experience of UDA in resettlement of people in greater
Colombo area. However, the PMU as the project monitoring institute is responsible to
implement least disturbed or undisturbed evacuation process of community affected due to its
development interventions. The PMU will carry out continuous and close monitoring
throughout the resettlement period. The evacuation period will be the most significant period
in which PMU will work closely with the UDA resettlement division to complete the
resettlement and its related other actions . All the assistances such as providing funds for
transporting household goods from present residences to the rented - in-house, timely
payment of cost to rent the houses etc. will be done timely with close interactions of UDA and
the APs by the PMU.
E. Information disclosure, consultation and participation 102. The main project: Stakeholders were identified and consulted twice (during phase 1 and also
feasibility stage of phase 2) during project preparation (Annexes 5 and 6). The views they
37
expressed on the proposed project have been included in the Resettlement Plan (RP) prepared
during feasibility stage of the project.
103. The RP prepared during project’s feasibility stage was disclosed in ADB’s website and the EA's
website. However, it was agreed to continue information dissemination and consultation
throughout project implementation.
104. During feasibility stage it was decided to conduct focus group discussions with APs and other
stakeholders to ensure ideas on minimizing disruptions during project construction period. It
was also decided that APs and stakeholders will also be encouraged to participate in
monitoring and evaluation, which makes a valuable contribution in implementing RPs, as part
of the participatory planning process. On the basis of the final RPs in each sub-project site, the
PMU will hold public meetings to inform APs and other stakeholders of arrangements for the
implementation of the RP particularly with reference to compensation and grievance redress.
The Project's public awareness campaign will also disseminate information on safeguards
issues (Annex 7).
105. Kirulapone sub-project: During the preparation of RP on Kirulapone sub-project, the
resettlement expert consulted 4 heads of households in Kalinga Mawatha, 5 heads of
households in Rail way line reservation area and 6 heads of households in Talakotuwe
Gardens. The sub-project related basic information was given to them and they were promised
to provide further and specific information during implementation phase of the sub-project.
Consultation sessions with key stakeholders in the sub-project area were held and the details of
the stakeholders consulted are shown below:
Officers in charge of Government institutions located in the vicinity of the sub-project road
sections – 31 Institutions
Key officers in private institutions – 48
Leaders of religious institutions- 24
Heads of schools- 6
Businessmen in the vicinity of sub-project road sections- 10
Mobile vendors- 28
Three wheel drivers- 19
Detail Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were also held with all the APs in 3 locations where
resettlement issues are observed in the sub-project. These group meetings were held prior to detail
questionnaire survey with same APs. The details of the FGDs are mentioned below:
FGD at Kalinga Mawatha pumping station with 4 APs on 23-6-2014 and 25-06-2016
FGD at Railway line near D.M. Colombage Mawatha with 5 APs on 4-07-2014 and
25-06-2016
FGD at Talakotuwe Garden pumping station with 6 APs on 10-8-2014, and 8-09-24-
06-2016.
106. In addition to the consultations of key stakeholders mentioned above formal in-depth interviews
were carried out with other 49 persons in sub-project project area. These people are willing to
act as key contact persons during implementation phase of the sub-project. These 49 persons
were identified as possible contact persons in 49 sub-project road sections for future activities
of the sub-project. They helped the Resettlement and social impact assessment study team to
hold transect walks along the sub-project road sections. It was observed that they are well
acceptable to the rest of the community members residing in the immediate vicinities of the sub-
project roads.
38
The PMU together with the UDA and the resettlement expert of DSIDC will have continuous
interactions with APs in 3 locations. Apart from these informal interactions it is expected to hold
formal interactive sessions to ensure to provide awareness of the APs and obtain their
agreements to the resettlement in UDA built high-rise buildings. However, all 13 residential
houses are in complete agreement to the proposal of resettlement in UDA built new
condominium. The non-residence garage owner in Kalinga Mawatha is also willing to shift his
garage to a new place found by himself if the compensation for the demolished structure is paid
by the project. The person encroached one portion of land in Kalinga Mawatha pumping station
also expressed his readiness to leave the encroached portion for cattle yard. The following
meetings will be held formally with APs:
Three meetings with all the APs in 3 locations prior to hand over them with evacuation
notices.
Same number of meetings during the period they are shifted to high-rise buildings or rented-
in houses
Another 3 meetings with APs immediate after resettlement in high-rise buildings or in the
rented- in houses
The post-resettlement monitoring will be an intensive activity carried out by PMU for about 6
months period to ensure the proper reestablishment of APs in the new locations.
107. This RP on sub-project will also be disclosed in ADB’s and EA’s websites.
108. The stakeholders consulted expressed various suggestions to mitigate the potential negative
impacts on people, Government and private institutes, religious centers and other groups who
are depending on their income generation activities in the sub-project areas. These common
views they expressed on sub-project area are mentioned below as they expressed with no
changes of their views.
Mitigation measures suggested addressing the difficulties of community
Impact Suggested mitigation measure
• Transportation and access difficulties
• Difficulties faced by vehicle users
• Road sections should be used stage by stage (staggered construction) without excavating the entire area at once for laying pipes.
• Construction work should be completed in a speedy manner
• Exploring all the possibilities to use alternative access roads
• Conducting construction activities during night hours (only in suitable sub-project’s road sections).
• Explore possibilities to apply trenchless technology in laying pipes (especially, in narrow roads).
• Effective management of the project site (clearing the road, providing steel plates as temporary entrances to houses during construction period)
• Providing safe vehicle parks during construction phase
Actions to mitigate potential impact on government and private institutions
39
109. The specific actions suggested addressing the access difficulties to government and private
institutions are mentioned below:
• Effective management of project site (efficient removal of excavated soils from the road
to clear the way, sprinkling water to control dust)
• Effective traffic management during construction phase (limiting vehicles entering to
project related road sections)
• Provide advance notice about the project and conducting awareness programs on use of
alternative access roads to related institutions.
• If the entrances of these establishments are blocked steel plates need to be provided to
every institute to use as temporary access.
• Request the contractors to explore possibilities to control the noise and dust generated
in the sites.
• Effective monitoring of the construction progress to encourage the contractors to
complete the work during planned period of time.
Actions to mitigate potential impacts on Economic centers
Impact Suggested mitigation measure
• Customers will not be able to park their vehicles
• Road congestion
• Providing temporary access roads to the establishments
• Conducting construction work during night hours
• Adaption of advanced technology to install sewer lines without huge damages to roads
• Effective traffic management during construction phase
• Completion of project work in a speedy manner
Actions to mitigate potential impact on Religious Centers
110. Effective management of project sites (removal of excavated soils effectively and clearing the
road, sprinkling of water to control dust condition) is essential as well as use of noisy machinery
during religious activities should not be practiced in construction activities in front of religious
centers during festival days. Religious leaders will be well informed about the project and the
use of alternative access roads.
Action to mitigate potential impact on People depending on sub road areas for their livelihood
activities
111. Actions to mitigate the impact on Three Wheel Parks: All possible multiple solutions will be
implemented to address the disturbances and other negative impacts on the Three Wheel
operators in the project roads.
112. All the possibilities will be explored to create temporary parks in possible locations of the
particular road. This solution may not be suitable to some three wheel drivers and they will be
willing to explore their own efforts to seek alternatives to park their vehicles during the
temporary period of project implementation. However, these options will be discussed with the
affected three wheel drivers before commencement of the construction activities. The Three
40
Wheel operators will be met in groups and discuss with them. Completion of project activities in a
speedy manner is essential to mitigate further negative impact on three wheel parks.
113. However, the most essential measure implemented will be providing construction related
information at least 30 days before the commencement of the actual work on the ground. This
will be useful for them to explore their own initiatives. This was one of the conditions put
forwarded by the three wheel operators during the resettlement survey in sub-project road
areas.
114. Actions to mitigate the impact on mobile vendors: The mobile traders visiting through the
project roads for their daily sales activities will be informed about the proposed development
project. They will be better convinced this unavoidable circumstances and ask them to avoid the
road sections in their daily sales route. Mobile vendors will be encouraged to look for alternative
sales routes during construction period.
115. It should be noted that views expressed above are from diverse groups of stakeholders
consulted. There may not be possibilities to implement these suggestions as they are and
instead the RP will ensure social safety and also avoid all possible injustice to the likelihood
affected communities due to proposed project interventions.
116. One of the most possible measures suggested by the venders themselves was possibility of
using other link roads to the sub-project roads to walk along for their routine sales activities. If
so, they can reach most of their regular customers.
After revision of the RP with intensive participation again the PMU with some facilitative support
from DSIDC started further consultation of affected persons in 3 locations. These consultation
activities will be continued until they are resettled in new locations and even after resettlement
the post-resettlement support will be carried out to facilitate the AP families to reestablish their
affected livelihood activities. The details of ongoing consultation activities are summarized
below:

F. Grievance Redress Mechanisms 117. Grievances of APs will first be brought to the attention of the PMU Sociologist within 3 days after
complaining of the APs. Grievances not redressed by the PMU Sociologist will be brought to
the Project Director (PD) again within 3-4 days. Grievances not addressed will be brought to the
Safeguards Committee (SC) constituted in each Municipal District within one week time. About
2 weeks’ time will be taken to submit unsolved grievances to the SC. There is a long history of
grievance redress for CMC services through the District Engineer. The community members in
CMC areas make their grievances on CMC provided services to the District engineers and the
District engineers’ offices have made arrangements to inspect the problems of the community
members and help to solve the problems in the field itself if possible or otherwise they take
actions to forward the grievances of the communities that cannot be solved at their level to the
higher authorities of the CMC. This practice will be formalized for resettlement purposes
through the SC. The SC will comprise the Assistant secretary of the Ministry of provincial
41
councils and local government, District Engineer as chair, a representative from UDA, the PMU
Sociologist and a resident from the District, and the PMU Sociologist will observe and take
minutes.
The project (Phase 1) has already established GRM committee with the memberships of officers from
CMC and the project. Some of these individual government officers may change due to transfers of
work sites or any other reasons but, the details of present officers are mentioned below:

Will be identified at the time of needs
arise
The SC will meet when grievances are put forwarded by the Project Director to determine the
merit of each grievance, and resolve grievances within a month of receiving the complaint.
Further grievances will be referred by APs to the Project Steering Committee. Records will be
kept of all grievances received including, contact details of complainant, date that the complaint
was received, nature of grievance, agreed corrective actions and the date these were affected
and final outcome. The CMC has already formed the SC for GCWWMIIP for implementation of
RPs in other sub-projects and the same SC will serve for this sub-project too. All costs involved
in resolving the complaints will be borne by the PMU. The grievance redress mechanisms will
continue to function throughout the project.
A project information document (PID) including brief description of the sub-project, likelihood
negative impacts and institutions to be contacted and their locations to seek for solutions to the
problems and constraints faced during construction phase . This document will be distributed
among APs at least one month prior to commencement of the construction work. It is noted that
APs in this sub-project is already know about the likelihood their evacuation and the new
locations of the resettlement and the types of assistances they will receive from the UDA's
resettlement officers and the resettlement survey team of this sub-project.
118. The focal point of receiving complaints /queries will be social and environment safe guard
division of PMU office and the sociologist of this division are responsible for taking actions to
solve the problems with the help of other parties. The PMU sociologist together with DSIDC
resettlement expert will make frequent visits to the sub-project sites. The affected communities
also can contact the PMU sociologist through the telephone number 0112665331 and make
their complaints. They also can post letters with their complaints to the PMU office to its
address mentioned below. The communities in the project area can easily access to the social
and environment safe guard division of PMU office located at no 86, Millennium center, Ananda
Coomaraswamy Mawatha, Colombo. There is well established public transport system for the
communities to reach the PMU office within a short period of time. The communities in the sub-
project area can also reach the site offices established in the sub-project area during
construction period and make their complaints/grievances to the DSIDC engineers. These
42
grievances will be collected by the PMU sociologist to offer solutions through the institutional
process established. The diagram 1 depicts the complaint handling mechanism during
implementation phase of the sub-project.

A form will be used to register the complaints of the sub-project affected communities in project
implementing area. The copies of the form will be given to the site engineers of the contractors,
construction supervision engineers of DSIDC attached to the site and the PMU sociologist will also
use this form. The registered complaints using this form will be received by the Sociologist attached to
PMU and take necessary actions to provide timely solutions.
119. During resettlement survey period information about the project and likelihood impacts have
been conveyed to the community leaders and other key stakeholders. A detailed leaflet with
specific details about the sub-project and GRM arrangements will be disbursed to the affected
community members prior to commencement of civil work. The PMU sociologist together with
the DSIDC resettlement expert will conduct awareness meetings to the affected communities
and the construction crew to explain about the GRM arrangements in each sub-project site.
120. The PMU sociologist and the resettlement expert of DSIDC will play key roles in monitoring of
sub-project sites during construction period. These 2 safeguard officers will educate the APs,
community leaders and other stakeholders on the GRM mechanism available. The construction
crew also will be made aware about the GRM mechanism by these two safeguard officers. They
will be responsible to monitor the social safe guard related activities in the sub-project site
during implementation period. The information on the social safeguard implementation will be
included in bi-annual progress reports submitted to the ADB.
Annex 9 and10 Include specimen forms that can be used for grievance registration and
monitoring of impacts mitigation process.
G. Legal Frame work 121. The Resettlement Plan of the sub-project is developed based on the principles and legal
provisions laid down in The Land Acquisition Act, 1950 (LAA, amended from time to time) and
the National Involuntary Resettlement Policy, 2001 (NIRP). The principles of the NIRP are
largely consistent with ADB’s Policy on social safe guard, ADB SPS 2009.
122. The Project’s core principles will be applied to involuntary resettlement defined as follows:
involuntary resettlement addresses social and economic impacts that are permanent or
temporary and are (i) caused by acquisition of land and other fixed assets, (ii) by change in the
use of land, or (iii) restrictions imposed on land as a result of the Project.2 The core involuntary
resettlement principles for the Project include 9 which are categorically outlined in NIRP (Annex
3).
123. An additional two principles from ADB’s basic principles not clearly covered by NIRP are
considered in preparation of this Resettlement Plan. These two additional principles include, (I)
Affected people are to be identified and recorded as early as possible in order to establish their
eligibility through a population record or census that serves as an eligibility cutoff date,
preferably at the project identification stage, to prevent a subsequent influx of encroachers or
others who wish to take advantage of such benefits; and (ii) The full resettlement costs are to
be included in the presentation of project costs and benefits.

H. Entitlements, Assistance and Benefits 124. The entitlement matrix (EM) for this sub-project, based on the above principles and the potential
impacts, are given in Table 13. The entitlement Matrix shown in table 13 includes all the impacts
potential in GCWWMIIP and many of the impacts included in the table will not trigger in this
Kirulapone sub-project although they are mentioned in the EM. All obvious and potential
negative impacts will be addressed at the project-level. The PMU/CMC will implement the
resettlement plan in UDA built condominium in Colombage Mawatha. The UDA has agreed to
provide alternative houses for the evacuated householders in their newly built condominium at
Colombage Mawatha. The project will pay the capital cost of the alternative housing units to
UDA. The project also will mitigate the likelihood impacts on the commercial structure to be
demolished due to implementation of the proposed sub-project in Kalinga Mawatha. Other
negative impacts likely to emerge during construction phase on mobile vendors, three wheel
operators and regular road users will also be addressed. There will not be any other significant
issues like to trigger during rehabilitation phase.

Note: The photo graphs of affected households are shown in Annex 11.Fifth family in rail road reservation is sharing a part of house belongs to family 1. Therefore there is no separate photo for 5
th
house in rail road reservation. It is a family considered as a renter. 125. The contractors will be made mandatory responsible to avoid all possible actions creating
negative impacts on livelihoods of the communities in the sub-project area. This situation will be
carefully and frequently monitored by the PMU sociologist and the resettlement expert of DSIDC
and if any such incidents are observed in sub-project sites these safe guard officers will take
immediate action to draw the attention of the contractors to rectify the negative implications. The
contractors will be requested to build contingency cost for paying compensation for mitigating the
negative impact, if emerge in the sub-project during construction period.
126. The resettlement household survey was conducted with all these affected families on 23 -06 -
2016 and this date is considered as cut-off date for mitigation actions. This message has been
conveyed to the community leaders and the sub-project affected community members and
other stakeholders consulted during the resettlement study in sub-project area.
Other social safety aspects
127. The project affected community, especially the affected 4 householders in Kalinga Mawatha , 5
householders in rail road reservation and 6 householders in Talakotuwe Garden and other
households located along the access roads will be provided with all information of the proposed
sub-project . This information will include, nature of construction activities, time schedules etc.
The workforce will be educated and provided awareness to avoid conflicts with local
communities during construction phase.
The suggested process for implementing mitigation measures
The mitigation measures will address several needs of the sub-project:
Ensure proper compensation for the affected families
Ensure other social safety of the community around the construction sites
Facilitate to create harmoniums environment in the project sites for the contractors to carry
out their work.
Ensure proper discharge of the debris from the sub-project sites especially, the debris from
demolished houses (hazardous wastes such as asbestos) using safe methods. This issue
has already been included in the EMP of the project and actions will be taken to monitor the
adherence of the respective parties to follow the recommendations in the EMP.
128. The most important need is formal and informal awareness activities to convince the people in
the area about the significance of the construction work. The project staff will bear this in mind
when they make visits to the construction sites. It is important to convey consistent and same
messages to the community.
129. It would be necessary to have informal long term contacts established in the community for the
CMC operation and maintenance staff to have information about the sites. The appropriate group
to keep informal contact are the people with whom resettlement team conducted interviews.
48
Their names are mentioned in Annex 5 in this report. They are willing to play their roles as
informal contact persons in the sites during construction and post-construction phases.
I. Relocation of housing and Settlements 130. As mentioned above in this RP the UDA has agreed to implement the displacement and
resettlement activities in 3 locations of the sub-project (Kalinga Mawatha 2 families, rail road
reservation 4 families and 6 families in Talakotuwe Garden). The details of the APs are shown in
Annex 4. Out of 4 properties affected in Kalinga Mawatha pumping station, one building is used
exclusively for a garage. The owner of the Garage is residing somewhere else in Colombo and
therefore, that AP will not be resettled in UDA’s condominium but, he will be paid with
replacement cost of the demolished garage building. Similarly one of the residents in Kalinga
Mawatha is keeping cattle in public land and cattle owner also will be paid compensation to shift
his cattle to other suitable location ( There is no need to relocate the cattle owner’s residence) .
The project will pay the total capital cost of new housing units in UDA built condominiums. The
resettlement activities will be implemented by PMU with the help of UDA as planned in this RP
and the actions taken in each activity planned will be monitored by PMU. The details of the
activities planned to carry out in relocation of houses in 3 locations of the sub-project are
included in table 15.
Table 15: Details of the relocation and resettlement process

affected households in its high-rise building near Kalinga Mawatha. The construction activities of
Kalinga Mawatha housing scheme is getting delay and therefore, the UDA indicated its willingness to
resettle the affected householders in its new high-rise building in Salamulla, Predeepa Mawatha.
131. The PMU will request UDA to consider providing housing units in lower floors to the disable
families and housing units for other families will be selected through a lottery system. All UDA
implemented activities as planned in RP will be carefully monitored by the PMU and report to
ADB and the Ministry of Provincial Councils and Local Government (MOPCLG).
There will be disturbances to the income generation activities , of some families, 2 in Kalinga
Mawatha, 2 families in rail station and 1 family in Talakotuwe Garden who will receive
livelihood assistance for about 12 months period. Other 8 families will receive compensation for
7 day period during initial stage of resettlement (in the permanent resettlement in
49
condominium/s). These 8 families of 15 total APs will be paid monitory compensation for 7 day
period to meet their routine family needs at Rs 1000/day for 7 days per family. One of the 5
families in Rail road reservation is a renter sharing his Grandmother’s house and they will
receive rental allowance to find an alternative house as rented in residence.
J. Income restoration and Rehabilitation 132. The likelihood disturbances to the communities in 4 Sub-project’s, road sections (ID NOs
12,14,49 and 26) will not lead to create significant impacts to the livelihood systems of the
communities and other public and private institutions. This is because these road sections are
more than 10 M wide. However, temporary access will be provided to the houses and all other
public places in all sub-project road sections (49) if their accesses get disturbed due to project
activities. In some road sections small and medium scale shops are located, mobile vendors
operate their routine business activities and three Wheel operators park their three wheelers
(Annex 12). All these livelihood activities will be significantly disturbed during construction phase
of the sub-project.
133. The types of livelihood activities affected and the number of persons in each group are
mentioned in table 16.
Table 16: Types of livelihood groups affected and need income restoration assistance

sections No of affected
persons Assistance need
Small and medium scale shops
26 of 49 1 to 8 Providing information on the construction schedules about 30 days before the project activities are commenced. Steel plates will be provided to use as alternative access to the shops if the access are disturbed. Priority action to complete the construction activities within short period of time in the sub-project road sections of these shops
Mobile venders 28 of 49 3 to 8 These mobile venders also will be provided with construction schedules of the sub-projects 30 days prior to commencement of the construction activities. They can walk on other roads in the vicinity of the sub-project during construction period. If they walk along the sub-roads linked to the project roads they can reach the same customers.
Three wheel operators
19 of 49 2-6 This group will also be provided with information about the construction program prior to commencement of the construction work. The priority will be given to complete the construction work in the three wheel parking areas within short period of time. The three wheel operators themselves mentioned about various alternatives possible for them to continue their operations without serious negative impacts on the income (moving to neighboring roads or other areas known to them etc).
Situation in 3 locations where resettlement issues are cropped up
50
134. Kalinga Mawatha: There will be livelihood related negative impacts on 2 families in this
location. One family has a building structure exclusively used for the garage and the second
family has cattle shed. The first family running a garage in their building earns Rs 30,000 a
month from its operations. The family keeping cattle shed earns about Rs. 20,000/month. The
cattle owning family will not have impacts on their residential structure located in the immediate
vicinity of the proposed pumping station land. These 2 families were informed about these
compensation packages and they are willing to accept the proposed compensations and their
basis.
135. The family operating a garage in their building will receive Rs 30,000 a month for 12
months period as livelihood assistance and also Rs 50,000/= as compensation for the
demolished building used for the garage. This cost estimate is based on the discussion among
the RP preparatory team and discussion with the affected Garage owner. However, this cost will
be reviewed by a team comprised with CMC engineer, representative of the Ministry (project
executing agency) and PMU representative. Consent letter from the AP will be obtained before
commencement of the RP implementation work and submitted to ADB. He will be able to find an
alternative place to operate the garage. His residence is not affected by the sub-project (he is
residing in an area out of Kirulapone sub-project).
136. The family operating cattle shed will receive Rs. 20,000/month for 12 months period of time as
livelihood assistance until he will reestablish his disturbed income earning activity. The cattle are
kept in open yard with no structure and therefore, he does not have impacts on structures.
The Garage and cattle yard owners are occupying the public land and therefore, they are not entitled for alternate land according to the Land Laws of the country but, according to the prevailing laws in involuntary resettlement (NIRP 2001) and ADB’s Social Safe Guard Policy they will be paid compensation at replacement cost to reestablish their livelihood activities in another location. They will have to find a suitable place. Apart from replacement cost, these 2 APs will be paid livelihood assistance payment for 12 months period until they reestablish their disturbed livelihood activities in another location.
137. Rail road Reservation: There will be negative impacts on two families of 5 affected that are
managing 2 small boutiques (retail shops) in their houses. A family belong to W.A
Chandrawathi earns Rs 20,000 a month from their boutique. The second family headed by
M.D. Sriyani also earns about Rs.20, 000 a month. When these 2 families are resettled in high-
rise flats constructed by UDA there will be no possibilities for them to run their small retail
shops in the new housing units. These 2 families can explore their possibility to purchase
business units in business structures constructed in new condominium premises or other
locations. The 2 affected families will be paid Rs 20,000 each as livelihood assistance for 12
months period.
138. Talakotuwe Garden: One of 6 families run one shop attached to the house. She earns about
Rs 25,000/month. She will be paid Rs. 25,000/month for 12 months period as livelihood
assistance for her reestablish disturbed livelihood in an alternative location.
The details of the business owners in 3 locations affected and the assistance offered for them
to mitigate negative impacts are summarized below:

given Rs 5000/one -off payment for transporting of the
garage items and the demolished stuff of the cattle
shed for new locations. They have to find new
locations for the garage and cattle shed by themselves.
The garage owning AP will be given priority by UDA in
providing infrastructure for business activities in the

20,000/month for 12 months, These APs have to find
new locations to run their retail shops by themselves,
The UDA provides priority for these types of APs in
allocating business units in the business centers they
develop in front of new condominiums or in other
locations of Greater Colombo. The PMU will obtain this
special consideration from UDA. Each AP will be given
Rs5000/one off payment to transport their
household/business related items to the new locations.
Talakotuwe
Garden
1 AP use his small
residences to run retail
shop ( residence cum
business units)
This AP will be offered new housing units in the UDA
built condominium, Livelihood assistance of Rs
20,000/month for 12 months, This AP also has to find
new location to run his retail shop by himself, The UDA
provides priority for these types of APs in allocating
business units in the business centers they develop in
front of new condominiums or in other locations of
Greater Colombo. The PMU will obtain this special
consideration from UDA. This AP will also be given
Rs5000/one off payment to transport his
household/business related items to the new location.
139. The affected families in 3 locations mentioned above will be resettled within the sub-project area
and also within about 1 Km distance from the sub-project affected houses. Therefore, the
members of the affected families can continue their present employments without negative
implications.
140. The school children in affected families also can attend the present schools with no added
problems due to relocation. The persons resettled in Colombage Mawatha Condominium can
reach the same service delivery organizations such as hospitals, Markets, Banks and other
government or private institutes because they are resettled in the vicinity of their present
residences.
141. There can be negative impacts on the livelihood activities of the households evacuated from the existing residences to the condominium. The PMU together with the other line agencies, the CMC and UDA will identify the households with difficulties to continue their livelihood activities in the resettled places. A need assessment will be conducted by the PMU to identify the exact supports they need to address the issues regarding affected livelihoods in the new residences. Depending on the needs identified, the PMU will organize capacity building and facilitating programs and help them. The PMU will continue the monitoring activities in the new residences to ensure the livelihoods related constraints caused by the sub project are removed.
52
The roles carry out needs assessment and other assistance will be played by the sociologist of PMU and the Resettlement and social safeguard expert of DSIDC. The APs to be assisted/facilitated in their post resettlement phase will be small in number and that can be better monitored and handled by PMU and DSIDC.
K. Resettlement Budget and Financing Plan The cost for compensation of the lost assets will be borne by the Government of Sri Lanka.
142. Resettlement issues (to be addressed through monitory measures) are triggered only in 3 of the
sub-project implementing locations. The nature of compensations has been decided in
accordance with ADB policy of social safeguard and resettlement in 2009 and the national
involuntary resettlement policy of the government of Sri Lanka (2001).
143. All the houses in Kalinga Mawatha and Rail road reservation are established in public land
and therefore, they are considered as non-titled properties. The affected householders have
right only to the structures built in the public land. Therefore, there is no need to pay
compensation for land. Two of the 6 affected households in Talakotuwe Gardens are
established in freehold titled land plots. Therefore, those 2 private land plots will be acquired
with due compensation. All the affected households (2 in Kalinga Mawatha, 5 in Rail road
reservation and 6 in Talakotuwe Gardens) will be provided with alternative residential
structures and facilitate to mitigate the negative impacts on livelihoods.
144. The UDA has already agreed to resettle the sub-project affected families in the newly built high-
rise building in Colombage Mawatha. UDA has also agreed to support the implementation of
the activities required for evacuation and resettlement process. The project will pay Rs 4.0
Million/house to the UDA to compensate capital cost of an alternative housing unit in its newly
built condominium. The PMU will take the overall responsibility of implementing the RP with
the support of UDA. The PMU with the involvement of UDA and other relevant parties will
implement different chronological actions mentioned in table 17.

Note: the time table for implementing actions mentioned in table 17 will be decided after finalization of
the designs and awarding of construction contracts. The UDA has extensive experience in
resettlement of squatters evacuated from public land and resettlement in their high-rise buildings.
Therefore, the project will pay compensation for new housing units and also all other related needs
including funds for rented- in houses ( incase resettlement in high- rise building will get delay) ,
cost for transportation household items to new residences etc to UDA for implementation the
entire resettlement component of the sub-project . There will be no need pay rental cost if the
APs are directly shifted from present houses to the newly built condominiums which will be most
preferred action by all the parties (UDA, PMU, CMC, DSIDC and APs).
145. The 25 actions mentioned in table 26 will be monitored by PMU with the assistance from DSIDC
and report to ADB and the CMC.

Notes on the basis for compensation allowance/amounts
As per ADB SPS, the rate of compensation for acquired housing, land and other assets will be calculated at full replacement costs. The calculation of full replacement cost will be based on the following elements: (i) fair market value; (ii) transaction costs; (iii) interest accrued, (iv) transitional and restoration costs; and (v) other applicable payments, the detailed analysis / justification for such cost calculations (Table 18 – RP Implementation Budget) as per the ADB SPS requirements are mentioned below:
Item Justifications of the compensation cost
Cost for alternative housing units
The UDA has requested Rs.3.5 Million per housing unit in newly built condominium at Salamulla to recover their capital cost, The APs will have housing unit with 450 square feet area and it will a justifiable alternative residence offered to APs. In addition to better houses for squatters in public land they will also receive other assistance to get resettled in the new houses ( livelihood assistance such as shifting cost, transitional cost etc)
Private Land acquisition including the existing small housing structures
2 plots, one with 2.00 Perches and the other with 2.08 Perches. The RP study team arrived at the budgetary allocation after consultation of APs, community leaders, GNs and property developers but, the actual compensation will be decided based on the Government Valuer’s assessment. Value of perch is at 3.5
Million/perch, However fair market value will be offered for the loss of land by the 2 APs.
Livelihood assistance for AP families resettled
Livelihood Assistance for AP families for 7 days equivalent to actual daily income forgone by them during initial period of resettlement- Rs 1000 per person is the daily income from their employments in the area. This payment will be given as compensation for their loss of time to attend some activities during shifting period from present residences to the new houses.
Replacement cost for demolished Garage at Kalinga Mawatha
Replacement cost for demolished garage in Kalinga Mawatha- Rs 50,000 was decided by the resettlement team with the consultation of the garage owner and he too agreed that his existing structure can be reestablished somewhere else with this amount. This cost also will be evaluated by the compensation payment team of PMU and there can be some deviations. However the amount decided will be adequate to replace his demolished structure in other location.
Transport cost for the Garage items in Kalinga Mawatha
The cost for hired lorry and this cost is based on the cost for hiring lorries by National Water supplies and Drainage Board. This requirement has emerged due to the proposed project and therefore, they will be paid adequate funds to hire a lorry or other suitable vehicle for transportation of the garage items to the new location.
livelihood Assistance The livelihood Assistance for Garage owner and Cattle owner was decided based on their average monthly earnings from their business activities. Twelve months equivalent compensation has been paid in other donor funded projects for similar cases. This will help to recover the income forgone due to the project and also the period allocated for payment will be fair enough until they find alternative locations to continue their income generation activities.
Livelihood Assistance for 3 retail shops to be demolished (shops established within the house)
The livelihood Assistance for retail shop owners was decided based on their average monthly earnings from their business activities. Twelve months equivalent compensation has been paid in other donor funded projects for similar cases. This will help to recover the income forgone due to the project and also the period allocated for payment will be fair enough to find alternative locations to continue their income generation activities.
Rental fee for one family living This family is sharing the house belongs to their grandmother.
56
Item Justifications of the compensation cost
in relative’s house affected by the project
They will lose the accommodation due to evacuation of the grandmother’s family to UDA building. Therefore this sub-family is paid rental fee for 12 months at Rs 11250 per month including key money to be paid. This solution will help adequately for this family to find an alternative rented in house.
Transport cost: to transport household goods from present houses to new housing units
The average cost for hired lorry and this cost is based on the cost for hiring lorries by National Water supplies and Drainage Board. This requirement has emerged due to the proposed project and therefore, they will be paid adequate funds to hire a lorry or other suitable vehicle for transportation of the household items to the new houses.
Payment for the lost of earning of the mobile vendor selling flowers in front of Badrakali Kovil in Kalinga Mawatha
The livelihood Assistance for flower seller was decided based on his average daily earnings from his business activities. Construction activities in front of his flower selling hut can be completed within 14 days. This will be an adequate payment for him to recover the loss due to the proposed project activities
Awareness training and other information disclosure program
Budgetary allocation for conducting awareness sessions was allocated for PMU to use this budget line/ item to attend this activity depending on the needs. There can be deviations due to need emerge in the sub-project area during resettlement /construction period. However, the cost allocated will be adequate to conduct activities to make the APs and other neighboring communities aware of the proposed project and its construction activities.
Monitoring program of RP implementation
Budgetary allocation for monitoring RP implementation phase will be required by ADB and also the GOSL policy. This is an allocation and actual cost may vary depending on the actual monitoring activities conducted. However, the cost allocated will be sufficient to attend comprehensive monitoring activities by PMU
Facilitation for livelihood reestablishment in the post-resettlement phase (training and other facilitation)
This cost is also a tentative budgetary amount that can be used to monitor the situation of the resettled communities in UDA high-rise building. The actual cost will be based on the needs for facilitating the livelihood needs of the resettled families. This will be an essential need to facilitate restore the affected livelihoods if any in the new places.
Cost for management of GRM- including to payment of attendance allowance for the GRC members who are not PMU staff
If there will be needs arisen to meet the GRM committee and also need to visit the sub-project implementing areas the committee members need to be paid honorarium allowance. Each member will be paid Rs 4000 per meeting or a visit. At present members of the project steering committee is paid Rs 4000 per meeting /member and the same basis is recommended for GRM committee members. This honorarium payment will help to motivate active participation of the GRC members to attend the activities to be performed to be performed beyond their normal duties in their respective organizations.
Cost for long term use of rail reservation to install pipe line (administrative cost and tax)
This cost is required by CGR as mandatory payment as given in above table.
L. Institutional Arrangements 146. The Ministry of Provincial Council and Local Government (MPCLG) is the Executing Agency
(EA). The Colombo Municipal Council (CMC) is acting as implementing Agency (IA) mandated
to implement the activities. The Project Management Unit (PMU) within CMC supports the
Project, and this has been strengthened by staff from CMC. Urban Development Authority
(UDA) under the Ministry of Urban Development has taken the responsibility of providing
alternative houses to the APs. The UDA has extensive experience in resettlement activities. It
has planned and implemented evacuation of non-title squatters from the public land and
57
resettlement in newly built high rise buildings (Condominiums). A project steering committee
(PSC) has been established to oversee the Project. Figure 1 shows project implementation
arrangements.
147. The CMC resettlement planning and implementation capacity has been strengthened through
provision of expertise, and training and support for CMC staff particularly at the District-level.
This process will continue in future too. The PMU structure is shown in Figure 2. Within the
PMU, the Monitoring and Evaluation Unit deals with safeguards functions.5 Resettlement
issues across the Project will be managed and coordinated by a Sociologist of the PMU. The
Sociologist will be supported by a Domestic Resettlement Specialist (DRS) who is part of the
Design, Construction Supervision, and Institutional Development Consultants (DSIDC).
Responsibilities are in Table 28.
Figure 1: Project Implementation Arrangements

M. Implementation schedule 150. The designs for the construction of sewer lines in the subproject have been completed. The
construction of gravity sewer lines and establishment of pumping stations are the main activities of
the sub-project and those will create some negative impacts. The construction activities of the sub-
project areas will be completed within about 36 months Period
151. The EA has established a resettlement compensation committee/Grievance redress with the
member ship from the Ministry of Provincial Councils and local government, CMC and PMU of the
project. Compensation for all affected properties will be paid prior to commencement of the
rehabilitation work in the sub-project area. The affected families also will be resettled prior to
commencement of the civil work in the sub-project area. The tentative implementation schedule of
RP is shown below;

N. Monitoring and Reporting 152. The section below provides the monitoring methods and the reporting system of the sub-project.
The PMU-Sociologist will monitor whether resettlement is effective, make recommendations for
change where necessary, and report to the Project Director. The DSIDC-RS will provide the PMU
with training in resettlement issues, social survey methods and data analysis and recording, and he
will also be supported by the PMU-Sociologist in performing this role. Monitoring data will be
collected from PMU, DSIDC, UDA, contractors, and individual APs, and will be compared with
entitlements and disbursement schedules established in the RP. Various indicators will be used,
including those shown in Table 21. The PMU-Sociologist will provide ADB bi-annual monitoring
reports.

153. The Monitoring Unit of PMU will assess the resettlement process implemented by UDA. This will
be done for compliance monitoring to check that entitlements have been provided as specified in
the RP, and social impact evaluations to determine whether the compensation measures have
mitigated the effects of the Project and delivered the intended social improvements. Compliance
monitoring will focus on: determining whether APs have been provided with the compensation and
other entitlements specified in the RP; and assessing the adequacy of the resettlement policies,
resettlement management staff and structures, complaints and grievance procedures, and
resettlement budgets. Data will be gathered through reviews and audits and unscheduled and
unannounced inspections, as well as interviews with APs, PMU and District Office staff,
contractors, UDA and others involved in the process at all levels, and structured direct observation
on the ground.
62
154. Social Impact Evaluation (SIE) will be conducted by an external party following implementation of
the RP, at least six months after completion of the resettlement process. The SIE will assess post-
project socioeconomic conditions in affected areas and communities, compared with pre-project
baseline levels established by the DMS. The status of groups in relation to vulnerability and other
factors will be assessed, together with the gender impacts of the RP.
155. The external monitor will report to the EA and ADB throughout project implementation, and will
produce annual reports that will identify any outstanding issues that need to be addressed, and any
departures from Government or ADB policy, together with recommended remedial action. The
DSIDC will allocate required resources for the SIE to be done by the independent third party to
have unbiased views of the project. The SIE report will also identify any strategic lessons that
need to be learned, so that these can be incorporated into future resettlement activities of the IA,
EA, the Government or ADB.

Annex 3 - Comparison between ADB’s IR Policy and NIRP
ADB Policy on Involuntary Resettlement 2003
Sri Lanka National Involuntary Resettlement Policy
Gaps Between ADB Policy and NIRP
Involuntary resettlement should be avoided wherever feasible.
Involuntary resettlement should be avoided or reduced as much as possible by reviewing alternatives to the project as well as alternatives within the project.
No difference between ADB policy and NIRP on this issue.
Where population displacement is unavoidable, viable livelihood options should be provided to minimize the impact.
Where involuntary resettlement is unavoidable, affected people should be assisted to re-establish themselves and improve their quality of life.
The NIRP concurs with ADB policy on this issue.
If individuals or a community must lose all or part of their land, means of livelihood, or social support systems, so that a project might proceed, they will be compensated and assisted through replacement of land, housing, infrastructure, resources, income sources, and services, in cash or in kind, so that their economic and social circumstances will be at least restored to the pre-project level. All compensation is based on the principle of replacement cost.
Replacement land should be an option for compensation in the case of loss of land; in the absence of replacement land cash compensation should be an option for all affected persons. (Replacement cost is based on market value before the project’s acquisition. In the absence of functioning markets, a compensation structure is required that enables affected people to restore their livelihoods to levels at least equivalent to those maintained at the time of dispossession, displacement, or restricted access.) Compensation for loss of land, structures, other assets and income should be based on full replacement cost and should be paid promptly. This should include transaction costs.
The NIRP concurs with ADB policy on this issue.
Each involuntary resettlement is conceived and executed as part of a development project or program. During project preparation, ADB and the EA or project sponsor/s assess the opportunities for affected people to share project benefits. The affected people need to be provided with sufficient resources and opportunities to re-establish their livelihoods and homes as soon as possible, with time-bound action in coordination with the civil works.
Resettlement should be planned as a development activity for the affected people.
The NIRP concurs with ADB policy on this issue.
70
ADB Policy on Involuntary Resettlement 2003
Sri Lanka National Involuntary Resettlement Policy
Gaps Between ADB Policy and NIRP
Affected people are to be consulted on compensation and/or resettlement options, including relocation sites, and socio-economic rehabilitation. Pertinent resettlement information is to be disclosed to the affected people at key points, and specific opportunities provided for them to participate in choosing, planning and implementing options. Grievance redress mechanisms for affected people are to be established. Where adversely affected people are vulnerable groups, resettlement planning decisions will be preceded by a social preparation phase to enhance their participation in negotiation, planning and implementation.
Affected persons should be fully involved in the selection of relocation sites, livelihood compensation and development options at the earliest opportunity.
NIRP complies with ADB policy in most respects. However stakeholder involvement mainly involves provision of information and there is no specific mechanism for APs to participate actively in choosing, planning or implementing resettlement options. NIRP does not disclose about the establishment of Grievance redress mechanisms for affected people
Institutions of the affected people, and where relevant, of their hosts, are to be protected and supported. Affected people are to be assisted to integrate economically and socially into host communities so that adverse impacts on the host communities are minimized and social harmony is promoted.
Common property resources and community and public services should be provided to affected people. To assist those affected to be economically and socially integrated into the host communities; participatory measures should be designed and implemented.
The NIRP concurs with ADB policy on this issue.
The absence of a formal legal title to the land is not a bar to compensation and entitlement policy.
Affected persons who do not have documented title to land should receive fair and just treatment.
The NIRP concurs with ADB policy on this issue.
Affected people are to be identified and recorded as early as possible in order to establish their eligibility through a population record or census that serves as an eligibility cutoff date to prevent a subsequent influx of encroachers or others who wish to take advantage of such benefits.
- The NIRP does not mention establishing a population record through census.
Particular attention must be paid to the needs of the poorest APs, and vulnerable groups that may be at high risk of impoverishment. This may include those without legal title to the land or other assets, household headed by females, the elderly or disabled and other vulnerable groups, particularly indigenous peoples. Appropriate assistance must be provided to help them improve their socioeconomic status.
Gender equality and equity should be ensured and adhered to throughout the policy. Vulnerable groups should be identified and given appropriate assistance to substantially improve their living standards.
NIRP complies with ADB policy in most respects. Nevertheless, the NIRP does not define the term “vulnerable groups”, but gender mitigation is included.

Annex 7 - Project Information
APPENDIX 11: DRAFT LEAFLET FOR PROJECT INFORMATION DISCLOSURE
1. Background. The Greater Colombo Water and Wastewater Management Improvement Investment Program (GCWWMIIP) aims to improve the efficiency and financial sustainability of water supply and waste water management services in Greater Colombo. This leaflet presents information on project 3. The project 3 will involve physical sewage pipe network rehabilitation and also new construction, institutional and management capacity enhancement wastewater service and management of Greater Colombo. The Colombo Municipal Council (CMC) owns and operates the wastewater infrastructure services in Colombo, and is the only municipal body handling such service in the country. 2. Project description. The Project 3 will upgrade and rehabilitate the sewer collection system and build new wastewater treatment plant in the south catchment area of Colombo city. Under Project 3 in the physical works planned are: (i) rehabilitation, replacement, repair and cleaning of sewer reticulation system of 15.61 km in South catchment area of Colombo to address sewer damages, blockages and siltation problems, under-capacity issues and realignment needs (EIB co financing); (ii) laying 29.40 km of sewer network and constructing two pump stations to cover currently unsewered Kirulapona area in the south catchment area of Colombo (ADB financing); (iii) laying 6.22 km of sewer network and the construction of three pump stations to cover two other un-served areas in the south catchment area of Colombo (EIB co financing) ; and (iv) construction of 50,000 cubic meters per day capacity secondary treatment plant at Wellawatta on Design-Build-Operate basis. 3. Resettlement Plan: Policy and Principles. A Resettlement Plan (RP) has been prepared for project 3 – Waste water management in South Colombo City, based on ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement 2009, and Government of Sri Lanka’s National Involuntary Resettlement Policy 2001. 4. Involuntary Resettlement Impact. There are two private land plots for acquisition under project 3 in one of the proposed pumping station in Talakotuwe Gardens. However, 12families who are currently reside in project required land plots will have to be relocated from their houses, workshops or shelter. Involuntary resettlement impacts are in forms of (1) loss of housings and rent house; (2) loss of business places; (3) loss of income and (4) temporary disruption to income and access may occur during linear pipe laying for sewerage networks. Most of the impacts will be avoided/minimize by construction during non-business hours and careful alignment selection. Impacts of sewer network improvement / rehabilitation and constructions of network in un-serviced area are limited to (i) temporary disruption of on-street parking and business activities (display of wares on ROW), and (ii) temporary shifting of 95 vendors and hawkers during construction, for a period of less than 7 days each. Full closure of roads in commercial areas is not anticipated. APs will be provided 30 days’ advance notice to ensure none or minimal disruption in livelihood, followed by reminders 7 days in advance and 24 hours in advance of execution of works 5. Entitlement. The project provides for compensation of all potential losses including potential income losses for vendors at replacement value. Hawkers and vendors having temporary loss of income during the construction period will be compensated for income loss prior to displacement. Compensation for income loss of hawkers and vendors will be as per Government of Sri Lanka’s prescribed minimum wage rate for Colombo for the applicable worker category. Vulnerable APs (BPL/IP/female-headed/disabled/elderly) shall be provided additional compensation of 25%. The date of the census survey will serve as the cut-off date for identification of entitled persons. A budgetary provision of USD 0.38 M for RP implementation is made, including provisional sums of USD 0.36 for compensation of affected structures, lost income and USD 0.02 M for additional assistance to relocated households, business owners and vulnerable APs. 6. Institutional Arrangement. Detail Design and Institutional Development Consultants appointed by the CMC (DSIDC) will support the Project Management Unit (PMU) for the implementation of Project 3. The project employed NGO will assist APs/vulnerable groups to update the IR impacts upon detail design and put forth grievances and access information on opportunities for employment in project related activities, rights and entitlements and the grievance redress process, and make informed choices.
83
7. Grievance Redress Mechanism (GRM). To resolve all project related grievances and complaints a common social and environmental grievance redress mechanism will be in place. Common and simple grievances will be sorted out at project site level by the Contractor’s Resettlement Supervisor, supervision staff of PMU and project NGO within 7 days.
