Target and Principle for Resettlement The target of resettlement for the linking highwavs is to maintain the living standard and productive viability of the local residence affected by the land requisition and removal (or to resume and improved within one year). The principle for resettlement is to makle as fewer as land requisition and removal as I possible. 3. For linking highways. the total permanent land requisition shall be 742 5mu. temporary land requisition shall be 687.3mu and the total house removal shall be 11.941sq.m. So the total compensation shall be 23.449939 billion-vuan (Rlv\3) 1. Project Background 1. Description of the Project and Its Major Purpose According to the schedule made bv Henan Provincial Communication Department. the Pre-feasibility Study for Zhumadian-''invang Expresswav shall be completed in May 1998 and its Feasibility Study completed in August 1998. and at present. the Preliminary Design shall be on the wav. In November 1999, the bid for construction shall start and construction mobilization shall be made by the end of the vear 19Q9, then the commencement of the construction. In 2002. the expressway shall be completed and open to traffic. Therefore- the linking highwavs, as the attachment facilities of the expressway, shall be constructed as svnchronously with the construction of the expressway as possible to ensure the operation profit of the expresswav (after completion and open to traffic). The linkino highways shall connect the expressways with the interchanges, In order to construct the linking highwavs as syrnchronously with the construction of the expressway as possible, based on the requirement made by the World Bank. the highwav organizations in Zhumadian Prefecture and Xinvang Citv have made special arrangements. The En-ineers form Zhumadian and Xinvan, shall make detailed plan and study to the link-ing highways respectively according to the Feasibility Study of Zhumadian-Xinvang Expressway and the general plan of the interchanges & linking highwavs. Thev will focus on the issue that the linking hiighwavs intersecting the Beij ino-Guanazhou Railway and try to make sure the construction standard of the linkinu highways can meet the requirement of long-run traffic volume, so as to ensure the operation profit of the expressway after completion and open to traffic 2. Regions Affected and Benefited by the Projec T he expressway from Zhuniadian to Xinvang directly influences Zhumadian Prefecture and Xinyang City, includina 12 counties or districts under their administration: Qinyang. Runan, Queshan, Pingvu, Suiping. Shanigcai. Xincal, Zhengyang. Pingqiao, Luoshan, Xixian and Guangshan as well as Luohe City and Hubei Province. It will influence indirectlv 5 counties including Xinxian, Huangchuan. Huaibin. Gushi and Shangcheng as well as Nanvano Citv. Zhoukou Prefecture and Anhui Province The construction of 95 52k1m long expresswav shall bring vioorous development for the above-mentioned areas, which are main grain, cotton and edible oil producers in Henan Province. Also the investment environment shall be improved and the economical development shall be promoted. It will make great role in poverty fighting 3. Social and Economical Background of the Regions Affected by the Project Zhumadian Prefecture is located in the south of Henan Province with total area of 15,093Sq.m. 753.000 ha of which is arable land. Its total population is 7 89 million, in w-hich 7.04 million are agricultural people and 850.000 nonagricultural people. Its population density is 523 person per square meter.

Zhumadian Prefecture and Xinvang, City are both under-developed regions in economy of the province. The back-ward situation in economy needs to be improved 4. Mleasures Taken to Minimumn Migrants A lot of work has been done to minimum the influence caused by land requisition at the stage of feasibility study of the project. The alignment of this proposed expressway is determined according to the result of aerial photograph-., the land and the buildings to be influenced can be clearly distinguish in the photograph. In order to minimum the influence to the local people caused by land requisition of this project. Henan Provincial Communications Planning. Survev & Design Institute discussed with the leaders of highway construction departments and local covernments along the route to work out the scheme of alignment. A 1:2000 topographic map is finally adopted. with the purpose to take the influence of removal and resettlement into consideration. to determine the scheme of alignment. From the stage of preliminary design. land requisition and migrant settlement has been the main factors that decide the project design and alignment. Because a lot of work has been done in survey and design stage. best efforts have been paid to minimum the influence of land requisition. In order to minimum the quantity of land occupation and removal. further adjustment for horizontal alignment is made during final design period. to avoid the alicTnment goes through those villages whose population is large. Also, the longitudinal gradient is reasonably adjusted to shorten the height of fill and the depth of cut. and the interchangies are arranged properly. 4 In addition. effort shall be made to minimum the influence caused bv land requisition and settlement during construction period The temporary land used shall be focus on existing buildings and waste vards (e.g. townmship enterprises that have been closed). Also, best effort shall be made to balance the earthwork durinpg construction period. borrow sources shall be arranged in the waste land or waste hills. Each of the linking highways shall be desioned in such wvay to not only take the long/medium term period development of the corresponding cities into consideration but also shall use the existed highways as far as possible. For this purpose. two schemes are made for each of the linkina highwavs to try to minimum the land occupation and house removal as well as the noise in urban area and the pollution from the tail gas of the vehicles. During the period of implementation. all of the temporary land requisitioned shall be resumed to arable land. The borrow sources shall be chosen on the land wasted, and the depth of excavation for the borrowv sources shall be restricted to make sure thev can be resumed to arable land later. No matter the land need for temporary use or soil borrowino- no removal and migrant resettlement shall be made. During the period of land occupancy, besides the compensation shall be released to the farmers, the labor forces affected shall be arranged to work on the project as far as possible to increase their income. 5. Economical and Technical Feasibility Studv This project belongs to the attachment facilities of the Zhumadiam-Xinvang Expressway. no approval is need from the MOC and SDPC. Its Feasibilitv Study in on the way to be approved. 6. The Preliminary- Design and Construction Design Zhumadian Highway Survey & Design Institute and Xinyang Hi2hwzay Survey & Design Institute shall be in charge of the survey and design for this project. 7. Ownership and Organizational Structure of the Project This project belongs to the attachment of the Zhumadiam-Xinyang Expressway, its maintenance shall be carried out by Highway Administration Bureau of Henan Provincial Communications Department. During the construction period, the land requisition and migrant resettlemenm shall be responsible for by the construction leading group at different levels and the offices under it. 8. Social and Economical Survev The social and economical survey for this project was carried out by the design units together with the municipal, district, township leading, group offices and the representatives of the farmers affected under the requirement of Provincial Construction Leading Group Office. The survey period was from March 23, 1999 to June 4. 1999. totally 74 days. The survey was focus on economical situation of the counties. towvns and villages along the linking highways, including basic production conditions, geological environment, production forms, living habits, living levels. people coristitution., soil quality, attachment quantity. market price of local materials and the attitude of the local people towards this project. The survey forms mainl- included checking statistic data of 1998,1997 and 1996 in statistical bureaus at countv level, visiting officers at county. township and village levels and the people who are involved in land requisition and removal. ln October. the area of the land requisitioned and the number of the buildings attached were measured. then the people involved including the people from the city, county. township offices and the farmers had signed in the registration table for confirming. All the investigators and the people who were investigated were very concerned about this investigation. Most of the local people expressed their supporting to the Fenjiatang Linking Highwav Project. However, when the attachments on the land were verified, arguments were made more or less, the investigator could take the local people's opinions into consideration based on the actual situation and handled the problems properly. Durino the construction period and within one year after completion of the project, the follow-up investigations shall be made by the project's management organizations and the independent monitoring organization, and then an assessment report concerning the regional social economical condition shall be made by them. Based on that, the further improving measures shall be adopted accordingly. The investigation group included the following members (1) Wu Jin_shun: Chief of Planning Division of Communication Bureau of Zhumadian Prefecture, who responsible for investigating the economical condition of each village. tow-nship and county along the proposed highway; (1) Sun Hailin: Chief of the Desiczn Division of Highway Administration Department of Zhumadian Prefecture. who responsible for investigating the economical condition of each village, township and county along the proposed highway.
