Right to compensation

A number of measures, including compensation, recovery of losses, support, recovery of profit to displaced affected persons, depending on the nature of their losses to restore their economic and social situation.

Resettlement Physical resettlement of PAP from his/her place of residence or business before the project.

1. Background

The works for “Rehabilitation of water supply system in Isfana” are a BOUIP A-4 subcomponent of the main A component, which will finance the improvement and/or expansion of the water supply system, roads and other basic infrastructure, and the restoration and/or improvement of access to basic services in Novostroiki of Bishkek and Osh and in small towns.

The water supply system in Isfana shall be rehabilitated due to poor current technical condition, insufficient water supply to the central part and lack of water in the Bozogul Novostroika, outdated energy consuming pumping equipment, high water losses in the networks, out-of-order disinfection system, no water consumption records and need for extra high efficiency submersible pumps.

4  

Picture 1. Currently, water from ditches is used for drinking and technical needs by

residents.

Pictures 2-3. There is no water supply network in Bozogul Novostroika.

The rehabilitation is expected to result in the increase of water users from 7600 to 10 500 people, improved water quality, reduction of losses, conditions for produced and supplied water, increased hydraulic pressure in the network and higher debit from 36 m³/hour to 90 m³/hour.

One of the project works is construction of storage reservoirs to be built at the hillside from the Bozogul Novostroiki for collection and control of water supply to the Novostroika.

After setting out (February 2014), social impact was identified:

Part of agricultural plot (0.6 ha) owned by a farmer PAP #1 was in the in the storage reservoir construction area.

Pictures 4-6. PAP’s land plot under storage reservoir construction site.

The Mayor’s Office took preventive social protection measures at the pre-project stage:

1. Issued Decree #10 “On acquisition of land plot for construction of storage water for rehabilitation of water supply system in Isfana” (Annex 2).

5  

2. Allocated compensation to PAP #1 for winter wheat yield for two agricultural seasons in the amount of 28 820 Som (Annex 3).

In this regards, a need emerged for 1. Mitigation measures by the Mayor’s Office to be consistent with

mechanisms and procedures of OP 4.12 “Involuntary resettlement”.

2. RAP to be developed in line with BOUIP’s RPF in relation to social protection measures taken by the Mayor’ Office.

2. Project Description

Rehabilitation includes following works:

- water intake site; - water main from intake to the central part of Isfana; - water main from intake to Bozogul Novostroika; - reservoirs site in Bozogul; and - internal networks for Bozogul.

The water intake would be located on the northern entrance to isfana with following works:

– three wells with energy performance pumps installed (efficiency <70%); – two steel reservoirs, 700m³ each, will be built for storage and control of water supply; – new disinfection system using chlorine solution; – transformer substation for electricity supply to wells; and – 1st sanitary protection belt.

The water main from intake shall be laid in two lines: one to the central part of the town and the second line to Bozogul. In the central part of Isfana nearby the mosque water will be distributed via existing networks.

Water from the intake to Bozogul would first go to storage reservoir through second line, then to the internal networks in design. Following works would be built on the reservoirs site:

– 2*400 m³ reservoirs; – watch-box; – fence; and – power line.

3. Legal Framework

In Kyrgyzstan, despite the fairly detailed list of legal documents, there is no directly applicable law providing processes and procedures for involuntary resettlement1 of citizens during seizure of lands for state or public needs in connection with placement and construction of facilities.

                                                            1 In the Kyrgyz law, the term "involuntary resettlement" has a different meaning. This term is applied only

to the change of residence of the citizens as a result of violence or harassment, or threat thereof. Therefore, in the Kyrgyz Republic it is recommended to use the term "resettlement", but not "involuntary resettlement." It should be borne in mind that the term "resettlement" is not in the legislation, but is found only in individual acts of normative-technical and normative-methodical character as SanPiN, etc.

6  

Requirements relating to the issues of alienation of land and property of citizens and legal persons for state and public needs are set out in the Constitution, the Civil Code, the Town Planning Code, the Housing Code, the Land Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.

Legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic provides a limited list of circumstances that allow expropriation of property of citizens/businesses. For this case the alienation of land and property is possible for state and public needs2 under Art. 66 Sections 1 (2) and 4 of the Land Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.

The general approach of the national legislation and the requirements of the World Bank OP 4.12 "Involuntary Resettlement" is that alienation of property of individuals / entities for public use can be made only with the prior and fair compensation (including through provision of equivalent land or monetary compensation). If the parties do not reach agreement, the issue of involuntary resettlement shall be resolved through the courts.

Requirements of the legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic taking into account the World Bank OP 4.12 "Involuntary Resettlement" is aimed to ensure that:

1. measures to minimize involuntary resettlement were taken; 2. the loss of property is compensated at the replacement value of the property; 3. affected persons whose interests are affected are timely informed and compensation

options are explained. Generally, if people derive income from the use of land, the best option is to give them land at least equal in quality and area. Affected persons should also be compensated for the crops;

4. under the current law, citizens who have the right to own land can claim for compensation. Persons who illegally own land or illegally reside on them, are not entitled to compensation for expenses incurred by them during their illegal use of land.

Comparison of the requirements of the land legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic and the WB OP 4.12 “Involuntary resettlement” shown in the table3 below:

Table 1 Regulations of the Land Code of

the Kyrgyz Republic The WB policy on Involuntary Resettlement

Compensation for allotted lands only for landholders who have property right to a land, share in a land for official use or for those who have traditional rights

Absence of official property right to a land will not prevent from provision of rights to PAPs; those who do not have property rights to a land and/or use it will have various options of resettlement assistance given that they exercised farming activity/ occupied the land during the period preceding to the cutoff date

No consultations are required among PAPs or community regarding seizure of land or asset

PAPs shall be fully informed and consulted on receiving compensations, rights for various types of compensations and resettlement options, including location of a new resettlement. This implies consultation, participation of PAPs, holding of awareness-raising and explanatory campaigns as well as ensuring the opportunity for PAPs to participate in monitoring depending on

                                                            2 Land Code of the Kyrgyz Republic Art. 66 "Grounds for seizure of land" - § 1 (2) " seizure (redemption) of

land for state and public needs in accordance with this Chapter"; p.4 "seizure of land for state and public needs is made after payment of the value of the right to land and

compensation for damages"; 3 pages 9-10 RFP BOUIP

7  

nature and scale of the impact. Resettlement plans shall be developed through consultations with PAPs and other stakeholders. Grievance redress mechanisms shall be established. Separate consultations on gender issues shall be held. Disclosure of information is essential requirement.

Compensation for land is made based on replacement value by provision of another land parcel or payment in cash against a seized land parcel. Standard cost is determined based on established coefficients. No data are available on deductions .

Provision of a land against a seized land parcel is preferable, provided that, a proposed land parcel is acceptable for PAP and shall fit in area and fertility to a seized land parcel. I case of failure to find appropriate land parcel, it shall be compensated in cash or through provision of another land parcel with additional payment based on current market price free from deduction of any operational expenses (administrative expenses, taxes, payments for registration or vesting property right), or reduction of the price due to depreciation.

Compensation for other assets (structures, crop, trees, income generated by business) is made on replacement value. No provisions are envisaged for rendering any assistance for adverse impact or to vulnerable PAPs. No payments for transportation are envisaged.

Compensation for lost asset shall be paid in cash or in-kind based on current market price free from deduction of any operational expenses (administrative expenses, taxes, payments for registration or vesting property right), without reduction of compensation sum due to depreciation or retained material. Compensation for transportation is envisaged.

Proposals on allotment of agricultural or high-yielding lands are not encouraged if other type of lands is available during infrastructure planning stage.

Any land allotment and resettlement shall be avoided, if it cannot be avoided, it shall be minimized by means of study of all possible options.

No assistance is envisaged for temporary or irreversible loss of income/livelihood.

Compensation shall be paid for loss of income and livelihood resulting from temporary or irreversible land allotment for the purposes of the project.

Comparing OP 4.12 "Involuntary Resettlement" and Kyrgyz legislation, it should be noted the consistency and coherence of OP 4.12, a great opportunity for informational participation of people in the preparation and implementation of the resettlement plan, rehabilitation and adaptation to the new location, as well as better responsiveness to the interests of the relocated population. Issues of land seizure in the Kyrgyz Republic comply largely with the WB 4.12 policy requirements. However, the regulations of the Kyrgyz Republic do not provide for assistance to affected persons without a full, legally enforceable title to the lost land or other property.

In case of discrepancy between the laws of the Kyrgyz Republic and the requirements of the World Bank OP 4.12 Involuntary Resettlement, the OP 4.12 principles and procedures shall apply. This priority of WB standards over state law is a requirement for projects funded by the World Bank. "4

4. Impact Assessment

4.1. Census During setting out of storage reservoirs in February, 2014 it was detected that they were located on private land.

Picture 7. Setting out of storage reservoirs.

Verification of a range of PAPs, screening and scaling were carried out to identify potential impact, means of resettlement organizations and investigation including:

a) PAP interviews with census of land, affected assets and property rights for land.; b) Socio economical features of PAP.

Assets inventory was also carried out at the construction sites of water intake, designed water mains route, storage reservoirs and internal networks in Bozogul.

The following was identified during inventory:

1. In Bozogul, ~ 0.6 ha of agricultural land plot owned by PAP #1 were on storage reservoir site (location scheme is presented in Annex 1);

2. Affected land plot was registered in the Unified Register of Leulek Property registration Department on November 27, 2007 and owned by PAP #1, a resident of Isfana.

9  

Picture 8. Certificate of land ownership by PAP.

Picture 9. Syndication of compensatory land plot with a PAP.

By the time of inventory, PAP #1 was using this plot for agricultural farming (seeded with winter wheat).

During interview the PAP was notified of the census and the date of termination. The resident obtained the status of an affected person, the actual condition was determined for the land where storage reservoirs were designed to be located, and issues were clarified relating to permanent land withdrawal for construction of the storage reservoirs with sanitary protection zone. In addition, amount of monetary compensation for lost winter crops of two seasons was confirmed; compensation was calculated at the market value of Leulek Raion active by the payment time.

During the census and subsequent transfer of land plot to the municipality the following documents were submitted:

1. Certificate No. 0086593 dated 24 September 2007 of land plot belonging to PAP #1. 2. Land plot layout. 3. Copy of Isfana Mayor’s decree #130 “On acquisition of land plot for construction of

storage reservoirs for rehabilitation of water supply system in Isfana” dated 8 October 2013 (Annex 2);

4. Copy of Letter of Agreement by PAP #1 and his household members to exchange dry land for equivalent land plot in Kichi-Charkhan Stow (Annex 4);

5. Copy of Isfana Mayor’s decree #68 dated 6 April 2014 and statement of committee to make compensation payment for winter wheat of two agricultural seasons (Annex 3 and Annex 5).

4.2. Residents entitled to compensation during resettlement

The category of persons who are entitled to compensation and assistance includes resettled persons who may be included in one of the following three categories: 5

                                                            5 RFP chapter 6.1 page 11

 

10  

a) persons who have formal legal rights to land in accordance with the legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic;

b) persons who have no formal legal rights to land at the start of the census, but claimed rights to such land or assets - provided that such claims are recognized by the national legislation or in an order stipulated in the resettlement plan;

c) persons who have no formal rights to land or property affected, or running on this plot business or other activities that provide means of living illegally or informally. This includes those involved in informal small business, and business or persons occupying the area without any permit, persons who have farm household for sale or for their own needs, etc.

In this case, the persons assigned to the categories under subparagraphs (a) and (b) receive compensation for their withdrawn land, as well as other support. And persons falling within the categories specified in subparagraph (c), instead of compensation for their withdrawn land, shall receive assistance during moving to a new location, and if necessary, other forms of assistance.

It should be noted that the Kyrgyz legislation does not oblige to pay compensation and render assistance to persons identified in subparagraphs (b) and (c). However, in order to achieve the objectives of OP 4.12, such compensation under this RAP is defined by the BOUIP entitlement matrix RFP6.

Farmer with land title Owner Crops In addition to land compensation, will be allowed to take cash compensation for 2 seasons at the highest market rate.

In this particular case, PAP #1 was classified as (a) person who was entitled to compensation. His right to a land plot is confirmed by the Certificate of Ownership of the concerned land plot 7 where storage reservoirs are planned to be constructed i.e. this document applies in the Kyrgyz Republic as prepared in accordance with the national legislation.

Hence, the World Bank policy applies to compensation for the PAP category in question, though the person is protected by the acting legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic.

4.3. Assessment of compensation measures

4.3.1. Compensation of land

0.6 ha of land plot owned by PAP #1 and located in pattern No.98 of the Leulek Raion Land Cadastre shall be a subject to withdrawal for public needs. In exchange, the municipality of Isfana allocated an equal land for the farmer equivalent to market value, within 3 km radius in pattern No.707. Such exchange of land is informed both by lack of alternatives for location of storage reservoirs and technical reasons as hydraulic calculation for reservoirs to be built at specified elevation would guarantee 24-hours potable water supply to Bozogul Novostroika.

The alternative of land exchange was acceptable to the PAP №1 and implemented with his consent, which is supported by Letter of Agreement in Annex 4.

Following activities were carried out to implement procedure of land exchange:

a) Copy of Letter of Agreement by PAP #1 and his household members to exchange part of land plot;

b) Several options of land plots were proposed within 3 km radius; c) After the PAP #1 chose a land plot in pattern 707, procedures were completed for

documenting the ownership with the property rights registration department at the municipality’s cost.

4.3.2. Compensation for crops

Compensation payment of 28 820 Som was made for winter wheat on the withdrawn area of 0.6 ha. Amount of compensation was determined based on data from Leulek Raion Statistics Department for 2013 yields: maximum winter wheat yield per hectare in 2013 was 1.5 ton while the market value of 1 kg wheat was 15-16 Som/kg as of 19 February 2014.

5.2. Consulting and information

Pursuant to RPF provisions, necessary procedures were completed towards involvement in the resettlement activities of those being resettled, providing advice and ensuring their participation in resettlement measures together with Mayor’s Office officials whereby the PAP was a key unit in that process.

To this effect, during consultations the PAP was provided in an open manner with legal advice on issues related to compensations from the municipality for withdrawn land and winter crops. Consultations were held in January 2014. Both cash compensation for crop and in-kind compensation in a form of provided land parcel were discussed.

Consultations for project impact assessment were held in the form of direct negotiations as the most trustful and acceptable source of information for the PAP.

Objectives and procedures of OP 4.12 and principles for preparation of RAP were explained to the PAP in understandable manner and language during the meeting with social impact consultant Elena Kutmanova. The PAP was notified of the beginning of census and termination dates. In addition, the meeting confirmed the amount of monetary compensation and characteristics of compensated land plot provided to the PAP by the municipality of Isfana.
