Additional Second Line Project of LZR Objective of the Resettlement Action Plan and the Definitions of Resettlement Terms Object i ve * 1. This Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) is based on related laws and regulations of Guizhou Province and Yunnan Province and in consistent with the World Bank's Policy on Social Security OP4.12/BP4.12--Involuntary Resettlement. 2. The primary objective of this RAP is to provide affected peoples(APs) with a resettlement and restoration plan by which they can benefit from the project by improving their living standards or at least can regain their original living standard after the completion of the project and their losses due to the construction of the project can be compensated. Restoration measures are adopted to allow APs to regain their livelihood and to ensure that other affected businesses and enterprises, common properties, infrastrucuture facilities and cutural properties can be improved or at least restored as well. 3. The people working or living in the area along the railway line will be affected due to the acquisition of land and properties for construciton purpose. Definition of Resettlement Terms Affected Peoples 4. "Affected Peoples" refers to the people whose work and life is to be adversely affected by land acquisition for construction of the project including: (1) Peoples whose lands (including lands of various uses for homestead, public utilities, agriculture, forestry, husbandry and sideline industries), constructions (including private buildings and auxiliary facilities, enterprises' houses and buildings and public works), rights and interests or other properties be wholly or partially, temperarily or permanently acquisitioned or occupied. (2) People who are using above mentioned land, construcitons or properties or whose businesses, works, residences or living habits be affected adversly.

All of APs will be taken into consideration and be recorded . 6. All APs shall be compensated to restore and develope their living standards and for their property losses. Compensation for property losses shall be according to principle of replacement prices, any discount or cut in compensation amount in the name of depreciation or other excuses is not allowed to secure APs' rights and interests. Moreover, besides the compensation for property losses, subsidy shall be granted for APs restore the properties. The people who are operating businesses, reclaiming the lands and building houses without properties, rights and interests and liences for lawful residences due to the affect by the Project shall be treated equally to people who are with properties, rights and interests and liences for lawful residences, and are entitled to restoration of their living standards and the compensation for property losses. Resettlement and Restoration 7. "Resettlement and Restoration" means arrangements by which APs can restore their production activity and ability and can improve or at least regain their living standards. These arrangements include: (1) Relocation of life arena; (2) Reemployment arrangement for those whose works have been affected; (3) Restoration or compensation for affected land, working arena, trees and infrastructures; (4) Restoration arrangement for those whose living standard have been adversely affected ( i.e. harmful gas pollution) due to land acquisition and relocation; (5) Restoration and compensation arrangement for APs and affected enterprises; (6) Restoration for affected cultures and common properties. 6  RAP under Additional Second Line Project of LZR 1 Project Introduction 1.1 Project Background 1.1.1 Project Current Status 8. Liupanshui-Zhanyi Section (Hereinafter referred to as Liu-Zhan Railway)of Guiyang-Kunming Railway (Hereinafter referred to as Gui-Kun Railway) is located at the border area of Yunnan Province and Guizhou Province, extending from Liupanshui City (Lanba) of Guizhou Province in the east to Qujing City (Zhanyi) of Yunnan Province in the west. Liu-Zhan Railway starts from Lanba Station at Liupanshui Hub of Guizhou Province, extending westward passing cities and counties such as Shuicheng, Xuanwei, Zhanyi, Qujing, etc. and finally reaches Qujing Station(Zhanyi) of Yunnan Province. It has a total length of 253.633km, of which 79.533km is in Guizhou Province and 174.1km in Yunnan Province. Liu-Zhan Railway Line connects eastward to the newly-built Neijiang-Kunming Railway Line to reach northward to Chengdu City; and can reach Guiyang, the capital of Guizhou Province, and then eastward to most parts of the country by way of Zhu-Liu Double-Track Line. It goes down southward to Nanning by Nan-Kun Railway via Pan-Xi Railway and Shui-Bai Railway; the line runs westward to Kunming, the capital of Yunnan Province, via Qujing City, and connects to Kunming-Hanoi Meter Track Railway and the local railways of Cheng-Kun Railway, Nan-kun Railway and Kun-Yu Railway via Kunming. It connects to Guang (Guangtong)-Da (Dali) Railway and the planned Yunnan International Railway Pass, Dali-Lijiang Railway by ways of Kunming-Guangtong Section of Cheng-Kun Railway. 1.1.2 Necessity of Construction of LZR 9 LZR is to construct an additional second line based on existed railway line in order to obviate current transporation bottleneck of Gui-Kun Railway and proceed to realize general goal of national raiway network construction. Gui-Kun Railway together with Shanghai-Hangzhou Railway, Zhejiang-Ganzhou Railway and Hunan-Guizhou Railway constitute the most important latitudinal trunk railway line south of Long-Hai Railway, and an important part of Shanghai-Kunming Passage, namely Shanghai-Zhuzhou-Guiyang-Kunming Railway Line, which is the 2nd latitudinal passage in national Railway Network Kingtruss of "Eight Meridionals Eight 7  RAP under Additional Second Line Project of LZR Latitudinals". Shanghai-Kunming Passage only leave Liupanshui-Zhanyi Section still with a single line which doesn't match the operation ability and train running speed of the whole passage. Construction of additional second line to this section is not only necessary to the improvement of Shanghai-Kunming Pasway but also to framing of international passages connected with Southeast Asia and South Asia, and is important for fast development of national railways. 10 Half of Yunnan's freight transportation is by Gui-Kun Railway, and the single-track Liu-Zhan Section has become the transportation bottleneck. Located in the middle part of Gui-Kun Railway passing through important energe resource bases such as Qujing City and Liupanshui City, the project can satisfy transportation demand along the line and facilitate sustainable socioeconomic development. 11 Current traffic capacity of Liu-Zhan Railway is of 9 couples of trains per day and 1681 X 104 tons of freight transportation volume per year. Transportation ability of Xuanwei-Zhanyi Railway Section has been sacturated since 2002 with the transportation volume reaching 10 couples of trains per day and 1427X 1 04tons of freight per year. Till 2015, the transportation volume is expected to reach 27 couples of trains per day and 2290X 104 tons of freight per year. Current single-track line can't satisfy the increasing transportation demand. Due to the low standard and small curve radius, average running speed of passenger trains and cargo trains at this section is only 48.5km/h and 23.4km/h respectively, which is far short of transportion qulity requirements of passengers and consignors and is weak in fierce competition of transportation market. Construction of Additional Second Line of Liu-Zhan Railway along with the improvement of railway standard are also in consistent with national railway development requirements. 1.2 Project Research and Design 12 SSDI, the design unit of the Project had proposed various double- track reconstruction schemes based on respective survey and research made on Liu-Zhan Section early at 70s to 90s. According to the requirements stated in <JCH Ref No. [2003]27> of Planning & Development Section (PDS)of Ministry of Railways (MOR), project research and design work have been carried out based on available research results of SSDI. MOR issued official letters to Chengdu Municipal Bureau of Railways 8  RAP uLnder Additional Second Line Project of LZR and Kunming Municipal Bureau of Railways as well as other related units and governmental departments in Yunnan Privince, Guizhou Province, Liupanhsui City and Qujing City to collect their opinions and suggestions on the Project at Oct 2003. The Liu-Zhan Section Preparatory FSR is accomplished by SSDI at Dec. 2003. PDS organized " Feasibility Study and Review Meeting for Construction of Additional Second Line of Liu-Zhan Section of Gui-Kun Railway " at Kunming from 20th to 21 st March 2004, and SDDI prepared "Supplementary to Feasibility Study on Additional Second Line of ZLR" based on the meeting results at April 2004. According to < Notice on Delivering Adjustment Plan to Railway Survey and Design 2004> of PDS ( ref. no. ZLH (2004) 263), SDDI started preliminary survey on 253.633 main track km of LZR (From Lanba Station to Qujing Station) at March 2005 and ended at middle of June 2005. This Project FSR (for ratification) was accomplished at June 2006. 1.3 Project Introduction 13 Design requirements are as follows: Railway Grade I * Number of main tracks: double track * Limited slope: 6%o; reinforced slope: 13%o * Minimum curve radius: 2000m generally * Designed running speed for passenger train in the section: 160km/h * Type of pulling power: electric power. * Effective length of the arrival or departure line: 850m * Type of closing: automatic. 14 Main project contents include: 1) The proposal of new double track shortcut will be adopted in Meihuashan-Qiewu Section (83km), with a target speed of 160km/h. 2) A second line shall be built along the existing line for Qiewu-Zhanyi Section (119km), and the existing line shall be rebuilt applicably.

It passes by 2 provinces, 3 cities and 6 counties (districts). 23 towns (townships or streets) and 85 administrative villages are affected by the land requisition and relocation under the Project. A total area of 20,384.77 ha. of land various kinds will be acquisitioned including 10,284.45 mu. plowland, 2,027.41 mu. garden land, 1,051.95 mu. wood land, 1,435.55 mu. land for construction and 55,585.415 mu. unused land. There are 10,137.048 mu newly-requisitioned land, 8,866.65 mu borrow and spoil land land and1381.072 mu reclaimed land. A total of 14,103 people of 3,526 households are affected by demolishment and relocation of houses and buildings with a total building area of 528,857 m2 Of which 103,464 m2 are of brick-concrete structure, 375,145 m2 of brick-timber structure and 50,248 m2 of soil-timber structure. More than 50,000 trees and a few special facilities are affected. 1.5 Measures to Lessen Project Impact 1.5.1 During Project Plan and Design Period 18 Project design unit and peoject proprietor take a few of effective measures to alleviate socioeconomic impact of the Project on local people which include: A. When making optimum comparative choice of design schemes, take project impact on local socioeconomy as key consideration; B. In order to reduce land acquitsition and resettlement to the least, project design is in compliance with the principle of "Try to avoid area with dense population and residence to reduce relocation; Try to reduce occupation of plowland or land to as least as possible"; C. Optimize engineering design, shorten project construciton period, and appropriately schedule houses demolishment, relocation and constrcution 1.5.2 Constrcution Period 19 A. Strenghten public participation machanism. Publicize the project start date and construction schedule by notice in project impact area and resettlement area. Publicize compensation policy for land acquisition, relocation and resettlement subject to supervision by migrants and local people in resettlement area; 20 B. Measures to reduce dust. Watering the working pavements in highly populated area when it continues with several sunny and windy days in order to 11~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~1  RAP under Additional Second Line Project of LZR reduce dust and keep the constrcution area under cleari and comfortable condition. Working units will plan the route for transportation of earthworks, avoid overloading and falling of earthworks on the way. 21 C. Disposal of wastes on working sites. Due to the long construction period and a large number of workers, working area produces a great amount of living garbages and various wastes. Project construction and working units will clean up living garbage and various wastes in the working area on time every day to keep tidy and clean of working sites and avoid ocurrence and spread of contagious diseases. 22 D. During the construction period, make priority use of local materials, logistics and labors subject to techinical permission, to ensure that APs can benefit from project construction 1.5.3 Planning and Implemention of RAP 23 When land acquisition and relocation is inevitable, following measures will be adopted to reduce project impact: A. Strengthen survey and collection of basic data, make in-depth analysis on local socioeconomic status and future development, prepare feasible resettlement action plan according to local actual situations, ensure that APs' living standard will not be degraded due to construction of the Project; B. Strengthen inside and outside monitoring systems, establish efficient and smooth feedback channel and system, shorten data processing period, ensure that various problems occurred during construction period can be duly resolved; C. Working units are required to adopt effective measures to reduce project impact on local production 1.6 Scheduling 24 According to general schedule of the Project, it will be started since June 2006 till March 2010 with construction period of 4 years. According to general schedule of project construction, preparation work for resettlement is underway. Resettlement Action Plan is formualted according to World Bank requirements and is scheduled to be submitted for World Bank's evaluation at July 2005. Implementation of resettlement will begin at Oct 2005 since which land acquisition, houses relocation and resettlement will be carried out step by step. It is expected to be completed before April 2006 and is subject to monitoring and evaluation according to World Bank requirements 12  RAP under Additional Second Line Project of LZR 1.7 Preparation for Resettlement and Monitering & Evaluation 1.7.1 Investigation and collection of physical indicators 25 During a period from April to June 2005, with the coordination and cooperation of Chengdu Railway Bureau, Kunming Railway Bureau and SSDI, the survey has been made on affected physical indicators with spot check method in project impact area in Guizhou Province and Yunnan Province by two investigation teams organized by SSDI Kunming Branch according scope defined in FSR on Reconstructing LZR prepared by SSDI at Dec. 2003. The spot check method will be detailed in Section 4.1. in the RAP. Besides, investigation teams carried out migrant environment capacity analysis based on investigation of socioeconomy and migrant envirionment capacity in project impact area and provided instructions and technical consultation for RAP. nvestigation and collection of affected physical indicators takes more than three months and is greatly supported by various levels of local people's governments, villagers ( residents)committees and migrants along the line.According to variety of affected subjects, Investigation and collection of affected physical indicatorses involves in land acquisition, APs, demolishment and relocation of houses and auxiliary facilities, felling of scattered trees, relocation and rebuild of specific facilities, etc. 1.7.2 Socioeconomic Survey 26 In order to analyze project impact and establish feasible resettlement action plan, survey team has conducted detailed socioeconomic survey on villages (towns and streets) and migrants in project impact area and resettlement area. The contents of the survey include land resource, industrial structure, economic level, income and expenses, population, life style, cultures and custom, traffic, resource and development potentiality, etc.. Investigation adopts the method of collecting available various statistical data combining field spot check. Analysis on local socioeconomic status and residents' actual production and living status has been conducted based on data from field investigation. See Annex B for investigation results. 1.7.3 Resettlement Programming 27 Througth adequately hearing of opinions and suggestions of villigers and migrants, lead by local county (city or district) people's governments in project impact area, resettlement planning under the Project is conducted according to project affected scope and numbers of affected subjects . Feasible RAP is established based 13  RAP under Additional Second Line Project of LZR on background of respective villiages (towns and streets). Measures including land adjustment within village (Group) area, improvement of infrastructures, development of secondary and tertiary industries, economic compensation, etc. will be adopted. Carry through the " Development Resettlement Guideline" to ensure resettlement area with both basic subsistance conditions and development potentiality; Combine resettlement with regional exploitation and economic development, by which migrants can make wealth gradually and their living standard can be restored or improved. 1.7.4 Preparation for resettlement and monitoring & evaluation 28 The project proprietor engages Foreign Capital Institute of Southwest Jiaotong University M(FCI) as independent monitoring and evaluation unit for project resettlement. Preparation for resettlement planning is organized by construction unit. Monitoring and evaluation unit shall provide technical assistance. Design unit shall define the project impact scope.
