I. INTRODUCTION

A. Background

1. Government of Madhya Pradesh accords high priority to urban infrastructure

development. Mission 81 of Madhya Pradesh vision 2018 is dedicated to water supply,

and aims at universal coverage and reforms to improve efficiency of service delivery.

Government has initiated various programs – with own funds, Government of India funds, and also from external funding agencies (ADB, World Bank, DFID and KFW) to

improve infrastructure.

2. Proposed Madhya Pradesh Urban Services Improvement Program (MPUSIP), funded by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) will support the State Government programs for improving urban services in 128 Tier II towns in the state. The Program objectives are consistent with the Vision 2018 and ADB’s Country Partnership Strategy (CPS), focusing on infrastructure development, access to basic services and environmental sustainability. The Program will focus on water supply and sewerage and sanitation services and complement the ongoing government programs to improve these services in urban Madhya Pradesh, and will contribute to poverty reduction.

3. MPUSIP will result in improved and sustainable urban services, improved institutional and financial capacity of Urban Local Bodies (ULBs) to deliver sustainable urban services. The Program will also support the development and operationalization of Madhya Pradesh Urban Development Company (MPUDC). The proposed program will be implemented over 10 years (2016-2026). B. Program Description 4. Coverage. Trench 1 of the program will cover water supply interventions for 50 towns, sewerage and storm water collection system for 4 towns and non-physical investments in the participating local bodies as mentioned above. As per the preliminary estimates the proposed Program is estimated to cost about $820 million with Trench I is expected to cost about $390 million. 5. Components. MPUSIP’s physical component includes: 1 A. Universal Coverage (i). Expand drinking water supply coverage to provide 135lpcd in urban areas to each household, and (ii) Make a paradigm

shift from overwhelming dependence on ground water to surface water sources. B. Regulatory and monitoring reforms (i) Establish a water sector regulator to regulate service levels, tariffs, new investments etc. (ii) New and innovative models shall be developed to attract private partners in water supply distribution and maintenance. (iii) Detailed O&M guidelines shall be prepared and systems established for their implementation. Capacity building and training will be made an integral part of the O&M system, and (iv) Implement a major initiative, including an ICT campaign, to sensitize the urban communities about their responsibilities towards operation and maintenance of piped water supply systems.

C. Scope of this Report

6. This land acquisition and resettlement due diligence report is prepared for the proposed Water Supply package for Pawai Municipal Parishad, dist. Chhatarpur under which construction of water intakes, water treatment plants, storage reservoirs (ground- level and elevated), new pipe laying or pipe replacement (usually along public roads).The proposed subproject will focus on metered water supply for domestic, institutional and commercial users, including water resource identification and treatment, water storage tanks, distribution pipes and metered connections to each household in the towns covering a population of 14465 in Pawai (population as per census 2011) and estimated population on which it is designed for the year 2048 is 23769 all the municipal wards of the town are covered in the project 7. A due diligence process was conducted to examine the land acquisition and resettlement

issues in detail, in line with ADB SPS 2009. This report describes the findings and

provides copies of relevant documents, resolutions, minutes of meetings and

photographs. This land acquisition and resettlement due diligence report needs to be

read along with the Resettlement Framework prepared for MPUSIP.

8. Upon project implementation, the Social Safeguards Personnel at PMU,MPUDC will be

required to undertake a review of this due diligence report, prepare a confirmation letter

or report documenting any modifications for the subproject and submit to ADB; and

receive a ‘no objection’ confirmation from ADB prior to start of construction in the subproject.

II.POLICY FRAMEWORK, AND ENTITLEMENTS

9. The Resettlement Framework (RF) prepared for MPUSIP sets out the objectives, principles, eligibility criteria and entitlements for APs, based on ADB SPS, 2009 and LARR 2013 as well as national and state laws for protection of street vendors. Until recently, all activities related to rehabilitation and resettlement in the State of MP had been based on the Madhya Pradesh Resettlement and Rehabilitation Policy, 2002 (MPRR) and National Rehabilitation and Resettlement Policy, 2007 (NRRP-2007). GoMP adopted LARR 2013 on 3rd October, 2014 with some specifications for operationalizing its implementation in the state1. Details of policies are in the Resettlement Framework for MPUSIP.

1These GOs issued separately in September 2014 (i) notifies administrative cost of land acquisition; (ii) appoints Divisional

Commissioners as Commissioner for Rehabilitation & Resettlement within their respective jurisdictions; (iii) authorizes District

III. SUBPROJECT DESCRIPTION

25. Project area: The Municipal area of Pawai is 6.38 Sq Km or.It comprises of the urban

area and surroundings of the Pawai Municipal Corporation. Population of Pawai is 14465

(as per 2011 census). The Project area of Pawai town is 638 hectares excluding water

bodies. The developed area is only 480 hectare which is about 40%.

B. Existing Water Supply

26. Ground water is the only source of water supply in Pawai town. The town gets water supply from the tube wells. Water is supplied through pipes at spot source from the tube wells. A significant volume of ground water is also extracted through a network of bore-wells and hand pumps. The quality of groundwater is fairly good but the groundwater level is depleting rapidly due to abiding of laws. The current groundwater level is at 80 to 100 ft. PNP is in charge of operations and maintenance.

27. There is only one Over Head Tanks (OHTs) in ward no 9 with a capacity of 5.25 Lakh Litter & other is Gravity Service reservoir (GSR) in ward no 1with a capacity of 1.31 Lakh Liter. Presently the water supply is being provided to the population at the rate of less than 30 Liter Per Capita Daily (LPCD) from 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM which is far less than the minimum needs. There are 1460 houses are connected with water supply with 15 Public Stand Post & 56 Hand Pumps in the town). The water charged is at fixed rate at Rs. 25 per month for residential.

. 28. Existing distribution system is having1 OHTs & One GSR in the city. The water is

supplied by gravity flow from OHT. The distribution pipelines are very old with Cast Iron (CI) pipes. In many areas these pipes are in dilapidated conditions and losses through leakage are very high. There are 4 pumping station in the town which serve water in different wards. Jasganpura tube well , Daua Kaun ward no 9, Semra wala maharaja house in ward no 13 & lehardariya Kaun Pumping station is in ward no 14 direct supply from tube well.

29. On other hand, Nagar Parishad has installed hand pump in every wards. There are approx 56 hands Pumps & 35 well which serve the population of Pawai. There is no water pipeline in ward no 4 & 6. There are partially having water pipe line in ward no 1, 5, 7 & 8. Ward no 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14 & 15 are serves fully water pipe line supply system. There are 700 old connection & 515 new water connections proposed in the town. After implementation of water augmentation schemes 45 LPCD is supplied through water pipeline.

30. Water distribution takes place with piped water supply in the town. The existing network of pipe line, which was laid couple of decades ago is totally in dilapidated situation. Water is distributed to separate water supply zones and areas through localized distribution networks from the 35 tube wells located at various parts of the town. There is two elevated service reservoir one is 1.31lacs litres capacity very old and Second is 5.25 Lac Liters Capacity.

Collectors for constituting an Expert Group separately in respect of each project, (iv) notifies the factor which the market value is to be multiplied in case of rural areas, (v) appoints Officer-in charge of Land Acquisition Section in the Office of the Collector as Administrator for Rehabilitation and Resettlement and (vi) limits agricultural land acquisition, as required by the RTFCLARR, 2013.


31. There are 6 water tankers (2-6000 litres and 4-4000 litres) available with Nagar Parishad use to distribute the water for special occasions and in summer season Though, the piped water distribution is available in the city the coverage seems to be very poor with only 22% of the households has connectivity. Most of the old city wards water requirement is met by the hand pumps and open wells. Total length of transmission and distribution line is 32.26 kms in which is laid out to be 30 years. So 100% inhabitants of Pawai town are not getting water supply due to non-availability of distribution network where as other main components have been executed fully or partly.

Proposed GSR of 2.00 LL capacity for Zone-2


III. FIELD WORK AND PUBLIC CONSULTATION

A. Public Consultation 32. Consultations were undertaken with key stakeholders in line with ADB’s requirements

pertaining to environment and social considerations. Tools used for consultation were stakeholder meetings and focus group discussions (FGD). Consultant has carried out extensive consultations with affected communities, municipalities and stakeholders, including individual face to face interviews and public consultations.

The major stakeholders are: (a) The municipalities, its elected members and staff who will be required to oversee the construction of the distribution networks and WTP as well as be directly responsible for the maintenance of the installations (b) Local residents who will take initiative to connect their houses with the water distribution line. (c) Local business people and traders (d) School Students and College Students (e) Community whose livelihood is related to the river e.g., Washer men, boatmen

(f) The opinion makers are intimately acquainted to and well regarded by the community. They need to be enlisted in spreading environmental awareness within the community as well as in conveying the benefits of the project.

33 Field visits were made to all proposed sites and pipeline alignments and the potential impacts and mitigation measures discussed with stakeholders. These consultations helped identify the felt needs/concerns and apprehensions of the communities related to the project and priorities of concerned stakeholders. Discussions were held with people residing at and/or having businesses at/near the proposed subproject locations. Consultations revealed that people are aware of the problems of the existing water supply system in the city as they are getting 35lpcd and are willing to cooperate in the proposed project. The field visits and interactions helped ascertain that no further survey and inventories are required. The following table 2 provides a summary of consultations and discussions held.

V. LAND AVAILABILITY AND INVOLUNTARY RESETTLEMENT IMPACTS Water Supply 34. No land acquisition or resettlement impacts are anticipated for any of the proposed civil works for Pawai water supply subproject.. The Existing Annicut on patne river is constructed, height proposing 3.00 mt to meet the ultimate water demand. The geographical condition of the area around upstream side of proposed renovation Annicut it is measured that the width of patne river is about 120 to 160 mt and depth of water pool is around 7 mt and 1500 mt long. The calculation for available water quantum of

water by increasing the height of proposed Annicut about 3.0 mt are as under.

Calculation of storage will be made available after renovation of Annicut :- (I) Existing Pool capacity 4 mt depth x 100 mt width x 1000 mt long=0.40 MCM.


(II) Strorage increasing after Construction of Annicut of 3 m hight ,average width of

river 120m to 160m and Length of Water storage is around 3000m = 2 x 120 x

1500=0.36 MCM

(III) Total Storage is 0.40 MCM +0.36 MCM =0.76MCM

River flows up to november end therefore 8 month storage will be available and no impact on downstream users. As patne river flows around more than 8 months the downstream users not get effected by increasing the height of Annicut. So no impact .

35. Intake well is proposed on pateni river around 1/2 km from Pawai Nagar Parishad. WTP

is proposed at near patne river .The Pawai WTP/DTW land is now in the government’s possession /ownership. The permission from Water Resource Department for construction of Annicut and extraction of water from patne river , its conditions for granting of NOC. As other sites(OHT and WTP) are coming in the jurisdiction of MP Govt. land so only transfer is required from Revenue Department and laying comes under jurisdiction of Pawai Municipal Parishad.

35. In Pawai town raw water abstraction 3.8 MLD will be done from Patne river, then treated and supplied to the town. Construction of Intake well, raw water pump house, the proposed water treatment plant (WTP) will be undertaken on land belonging to Water Resource Department (WRD) and Government of Madhya Pradesh. The land has been in the Revenue Department’s possession for many years and was not acquired in anticipation of ADB funded MPUSIP, as revealed through discussions with the Revenue officer of Revenue Department’s during meeting on 7th March 2016.

36. The existing 1 OHT capacity 5.25 lakhs litre is in good condition and GSR of capacity 1.16 LL is not in a good it is proposed to be discarded and new proposed to be constructed at same place .The raw water rising mains will be laid underground from the intake well to WTP site along an existing road belonging to Municipal. Total land requirement for the proposed WTP is 1.5 ha; as the land parcel belongs to GoMP, The ULBs shall apply for No Objection Certificate (NOC) from WRD for raw water extraction and construction of Intake well at source. The other sites are revenue land (GoMP), for construction of the proposed water works ULB has to take NOC or transfer of land.

37. New distribution pipelines (32.26kms) are proposed to be laid along existing road ROWs. Proposed pipe diameters range between 75 mm and 350 mm. Pipe laying activity on roads in the most congested market areas and densely built-up areas has been carefully planned to avoid IR impacts including temporary economic impacts to hawkers, shops and businesses. Measures will be taken to minimize excavation, disturbance to pedestrians and traffic and avoid income loss to business, while minimizing road reconstruction costs.

37. Temporary impacts to traffic/access to shops and residences due to digging of pits for trenchless pipe laying are possible during construction; however, these will be mitigated by ensuring access to properties through provision of pedestrian planks, provision of adequate signage, and careful traffic management. Mobile hawkers will be assisted to move to places nearby, to ensure their earnings are not affected. No income loss is anticipated.

38. House Service connections: Providing house service connection tapping from a distribution main/ sub-main including one tapping saddles, elbows, service pipe from tapping point to the chamber near property boundary or inside the property boundary as per the direction with U-ball valve, using 20mm Medium Density Polyethylene pipes


(MDPE) pipe 5 m long. The work shall include excavation, road restoration, etc complete. The connection shall have:- i) The town is having total number of households 3581.So all the connections are considered in this project. ii)Domestic water meters: Supply and installation of AMR compatible water meters for each house service water connections 3581of 15 mm size, brass body,horizontal inferential multi jet type, magnetic drive with anti-fraud shield and dry dial with IP 68. Meter shall be made of copper or any other suitable anti corrosive metallic

39. Site inspections and transect walk was carried all along the proposed laying of clear water feeder mains (150.00 m ).The proposed pipeline for clear water feeder mains will be laid along the tow of the existing village road ROW (75m common pipeline )and 350.00m along ROW); the clear water feeder mains to be laid in Pawai will be along the Nagar Parishad roads. The 32.26kms distribution network pipelines in Pawai will be laid along the roads of the respective Nagar Parishads. Details of land ownership for each water works component to be constructed are given in Appendix 1.

40. The distribution network will pass through a Mandi or Haat areas in outer area of Pawai

near college and weekly vegetable market area in ward number 10 (every Thursday)

approximately spread over a stretch of 50 m. The Nagar Parishad officials suggested

that it can be temporarily shifted to a vacant place in front of Mandi area, such that no

income loss takes place due the civil work involved for laying of pipelines for distribution.

The weekly market day will be avoided for construction. Only mobile vendors will be shifted to a nearby location during the period of construction and assistance to shift will be provided by the contactor.

Appendix 2 provides the list of stakeholders and community people consulted.

41. The roads in the core city area of both the towns are very narrow and congested with

pedestrians and vehicles, while the roads in outer areas are wide. No necessity for full

closure of roads is identified. Proposed distribution pipe-laying on roads in most part of

the town will not have any permanent or temporary IR impact. Hawkers and vendors

have been witnessed along the road side for most part of the distribution network pipe-

laying. Laying of transmission mains and distribution network pipelines in the project

area has been carefully planned to minimize disturbance to pedestrians and traffic and

avoid income loss to businesses.

42. Potential temporary impacts to traffic/access to shops and residences due to digging and excavation for pipe laying are possible during construction; however, these will be mitigated by ensuring access to properties through provision of pedestrian planks, provision of adequate signage, and careful traffic management. Though there are no mobile hawkers along the internal roads where the water works will be implemented, if any such cases are reported, they will be assisted to move to nearby location to ensure that their business remains uninterrupted. In case temporary shifting of vendors with temporary structures is necessary, such shifting will be undertaken on a weekly holiday, to avoid income loss on the day(s) of shifting. The vendors will be assisted to shift and will be able to continue plying their trade during the construction period at the alternative location. No income loss is anticipated.

CONCLUSIONS

A. Summary and Conclusions

43. No significant IR impacts are assessed at identified sites for sub-project components, as adequate vacant land is available for the proposed facilities, within the compounds of government lands. The site for new OHT and WTP at Pawai was owned by Revenue and Intake well is constructed on Water Resource Department Land NOC for that is under approval. The land records and details of acquisition if any, of these sites, shall be appended to the updated DDR. For linear components (pipe laying) or those proposed along government road ROWs, temporary disruption to road users, pedestrians and community members will be avoided In the most congested zones of Pawai Safety measures and mitigated during construction by the contractor through simple measures such as provision of planks for pedestrian access to shops and traffic management. A budgetary provision is made for costs likely to be incurred by PMU/PIU for updating of this Project . Table 5:Budget for replenishment

Appendix-3. INVOLUNTARY RESETTLEMENT SCREENING CHECKLISTS

A. Introduction

1. Each project/subproject/component needs to be screen for any involuntary resettlement impacts and indigenous people impacts which will occur or already occurred. This screening determines the necessary action to be done by the project team.

B. Information on project/subproject/component:

a. District/ Administrative Name: Panna

b. Location (km): Pawai ,110 Kms

c. Civil work dates (proposed): NA

d. Technical Description: Pawai-Water Supply Subproject

C. Screening Questions for Involuntary Resettlement Impact

2. Below is the initial screening for involuntary resettlement impacts and due diligence exercise. Both permanent and temporary impacts must be considered and reported in the screening process.

Involuntary Resettlement Impacts Yes No Not known

Remarks

Will the project include any physical construction work?

Construction of WTP and OHT proposed

Does the proposed activity include upgrading or rehabilitation of existing physical facilities?

One existing OHT is taken in project SCADA is proposed as rehabilitation.

Will there be permanent land acquisition? Only Revenue land sites selected for construction of WTP and OHT

Will it require temporary land acquisition? As per Bid document temporary site for workers camp and storage of material site will be decided. According to that temporary land acquisition will be done on rent basis.
