Notes to this Update
With the assistance from the PPTA, Jiuquan PMO has prepared a
Resettlement Plan for Gansu Jiuquan Integrated Urban Environment
Improvement Project (the ―former RP‖) according to the Feasibility
Study Report for the proposed project in August 2012 which has
reviewed and approved at that stage.
On Feb.26, 2013, Gansu Provincial Development and Reform
Commission issued the Reply on the detailed design of the Jiuquan
Integrated Urban Environment Improvement Project1 (GPDRC 2013-376).
To reflect the latest resettlement impacts, resettlement progress,
resettlement policies, an updated version of the RP was prepared
with the support from Jiuquan PMO, the design agency, affected
persons and related departments.
According to the detail design, the project contents, scope and
the impact area have not been changed, but since some land has been
acquisitioned in 2012, the Location-based Integrated Land Prices
and Uniform AAOV Rates for Land Compensation has been changed in
2012, the update of this RP mainly involves adjustment of
resettlement impacts, resettlement policies, latest socioeconomic
profile, and resettlement cost & resettlement schedule.
And since the land acquisition of Xifengshi village within
Panxuan Road component has been conducted in 2012, to reflect the
resettlement process, latest situation and to meet ADB’s policy, a
due diligence report was annexed in appendix 11.
For more details about the main updates of the original RP,

compensation and assistance in resettlement whether legal title
is available or not
before the cut-off date; (4) The economic compensation shall
ensure that everyone
will at least maintain their standard of living after
resettlement; (5) If the land available
to everyone is insufficient to maintain his/her livelihood,
replacement in cash or in kind
and other income-generating activities are provided for the lost
land; (6) The APs fully
understand their entitlements, the method and standard of
compensation, the
livelihood and income restoration plan, and the project
schedule, and participate in the

JEDIG and the
affected township governments and village committees will
coordinate and handle
grievances and appeals arising from resettlement. The APs may
file appeals about
any aspect of resettlement, including compensation rates. If an
AP is still not satisfied
and believes he/she has been harmed due to non-compliance with
ADB policy, he/she
may submit a complaint to ADB’s Office of Special Project
Facility or Office of
Compliance Review in accordance with ADB’s Accountability
Mechanism①

JMG is the executing agency of the Project.
In order to ensure the successful implementation of the Project,
JMG has
established a project leading group for overall leadership and
high-level coordination.
The Jiuquan PMO has been established under the project leading
group for
routine management and coordination in project implementation,
reporting overall
progress and issues to be decided or coordinated at higher
levels to the project
leading group, and communication between JMG and ADB.
JEDIG is the IA of the Project, responsible for the
implementation of the Project.
In addition, JEDIG and other agencies concerned are also
responsible for the
implementation of this URP.
9) Monitoring and evaluation
In order to ensure the successful implementation of this URP,
resettlement
implementation will be subject to internal and external
monitoring. The internal
monitoring agency is the Jiuquan PMO, and an internal monitoring
report will be
submitted to ADB semiannually. The Jiuquan PMO has started to,
though still in
process, appoint an independent agency to conduct external
monitoring and
evaluation (M&E) semiannually, and M&E costs will be
included in the resettlement

1 Overview of the Project
1.1 Background and Description of the Project
1.1.1 Background of the Project
Jiuquan is located at the west tip of the Hexi Corridor in Gansu
Province, and is Gansu’s ecological center that draws the attention
of state leaders. According to a scientific outlook on development,
Jiuquan is being developed into a new energy base and a new energy
equipment manufacturing base of China, and Gansu’s regional
development strategy has been elevated to the state level. As one
of Gansu’s two wings, Jiuquan is vital to Gansu’s development and
the implementation of the regional development strategy. Despite of
its vast territory, extensive industrial prospect, and vital
ecological and geographic position, Jiuquan is characterized by
harsh natural conditions, fragile ecology, weak infrastructure,
insufficient urban capacity and functionality. The Project is an
urgent need for building the city’s ecological barrier, improving
its capacity, functionality and living environment, and realizing
its sustainable development.

2 Impacts of the Project
2.1 Measures to Minimize LA and HD
2.1.1 Principles for Project Design and Site Selection
Resettlement impacts have been minimized at the design stage on
the following principles:
Avoiding or minimizing occupation of existing and planned
residential areas;
Avoiding or minimizing occupation of high-quality farmland;
Gaining access to the proposed construction sites through existing
state
and local roads; Avoiding or minimizing occupation of
environmentally sensitive areas; Selecting resettlement sites in
compliance with the local development
plan
2.1.2 Comparison and Selection of Options
At the design stage, through the field survey of the project
area and the optimization of the project design, negative impacts
of the Project have been minimized without affecting the design
outputs, especially the amount of resettlement.
For North Binhe Road, The intersection of North Binhe Road and
Jiuyin Bridge is
located on the north side of Jiuyin Bridge. 1)recommended
option: the existing green belts will be used as the side
separation zones, non-motorized and motorized vehicle lanes will be
provided, and certain space will be reserved for future dyke
improvement and landscaping. 2) Substitutable option: The green
belts will be compressed, the side separation zones will be
replaced by fences, the existing dykes will be used as sidewalks,
and no space for landscaping will be reserved. 3) The optimized
option will reduce house demolition area by 1,757 m2 and
construction costs by 8,804,200 Yuan.
In addition, at the detailed design stage, the project design
will be further optimized to avoid or minimize LA and HD
impacts.
2.2 Scope of Impact Survey of LA and HD
In the recommended option, 121 households with 475 persons in 7
groups of 3 villages in two townships, Suzhou District, Jiuquan
City will be affected by LA and HD. See
Table 2-1.

2.3 Survey Methods and Process
In February 2011, the Jiuquan PMO appointed China Northwest
Municipal Engineering Design Institute Co., Ltd. to prepare the
Feasibility Study Report for the ADB-financed Gansu Jiuquan
Integrated Urban Environment Improvement Project.
In December 2011, the project staff from China Northwest
Municipal Engineering Design Institute Co., Ltd. conducted a field
investigation and collected information with the support of the
Jiuquan PMO; in May 2012, the draft Feasibility Study Report was
completed, defining the preliminary scope of construction of the
Project.
In May and June 2012, the survey team of Hohai University
conducted a census on the socioeconomic profile and resettlement
impacts of the project area according to the FS Report, and a
sampling socioeconomic survey on the AHs, covering household
population, impacts of LA, household economic status, and expected
resettlement modes. During the survey, the survey team also
listened to opinions of the village committees and villagers on LA,
HD and resettlement, and conducted extensive consultation. The
survey team also interviewed and collected information from the
Jiuquan PMO, JEDIG, the Jiuquan and Suzhou District Land and
Resources Bureau, the Jiuquan Urban House Demolition and
Resettlement Managemnet Office, and the labor and social security
bureau to learn the policies and practice of LA and resettlement in
Jiuquan City.
In June and July 2012, the RP of the Project was completed on
the basis of the FS and survey data, and public consultation. This
RP analyzes and evaluates the resettlement impacts and risks of the
Project, and proposes preliminary remedies.
In December 2013, a complementary survey was conducted to
reflect the latest project impacts, policies and other status.
During the survey, the survey staff also listened extensively to
expectations of the village committees and villagers on LA and
resettlement, and conducted extensive consultation. The key
findings are as follows:
Almost all villagers know that the Project is about to break
ground, and support it;
The Project involves the permanent acquisition of rural
collective land, the permanent occupation of state-owned land, the
demolition of rural residential houses and non-residential houses
on state-owned land, and temporary land occupation.
Almost all APs think that they are affected slightly by LA, and
they can continue to farm on the remaining land after acquisition;
they prefer cash compensation;
Compensation fees should be paid timely and transparently with
minimum intermediate steps.
2.4 Permanent Acquisition of Collective Land
The acquisition of collective land is caused by the Panxuan Road
extension and the WWTP. Affecting 112 households with 441 persons
in 7 groups of 3 villages in two townships, Suzhou District,
Jiuquan City. 529.1 mu of collective land will be acquired for the
Project, including 305.5 mu for the Panxuan Road extension①
(57.74%) and 223.6 mu for the WWTP (42.26%).
By land type, this includes 390.2 mu of agricultural land
(73.75%), 4.5 mu of rural construction land (0.85%) and 134.4 mu of
unutilized land (25.40%). See Table 2-2. ① Of which, 80.35mu land
of Shifengxi village has been finished in Feb.2012. For more
details,
please see appendix 13.

to work and have no means of
living, or whose households lack labor, a rural production
cooperative would provide production and living

and burial for the elderly. The support
subsidy for five-guarantee households in the project area is not
less than 2,600 yuan/year,

48.3%. According to the survey, the affected women enjoy the
same rights as men, including land contracting, education
receiving, family planning and election. Most of the female labor
respondents think that they have the same autonomy in production
and management as men, and may elect to get employed or do small
business independently. Women do more housework, child care,
household sideline operations (e.g., household stockbreeding) and
handicraft jobs. The average working hours of women are 1.2 times
those of men. Women are more advantaged in social services, apparel
processing and like industries, but disadvantaged in the building
and transport industries.
Boys and girls have equal opportunities in education, and
parents are always willing to support their children’s
education.
According to the survey, women have the same concerns as those
of men: (a) Compensation rates should comply strictly with the
state laws and policies; (b) Compensation fees should be disbursed
directly to the AHs; and (c) Housing sites should be allocated in
advance.
Women have the following needs that are different from those of
men: (a) Women expect both cash compensation and land reallocation;
(b) Women want skills training in crop cultivation, stockbreeding
and handicrafts; and (c) Women also expect to participate in
village-level management.
