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) through its 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 Mauganj Municipal Parishad, dist. Rewa 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 26,411 in Mauganj (population as per census 2011) and estimated population on which it is designed for the year 2048 is 51143 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.

III. SUBPROJECT DESCRIPTION

10. Project area: Mauganj is a Town in Mauganj Mandal in Rewa District in Madhya

Pradesh State. Mauganj is the Main Town for the Mauganj Mandal. It is located at a 65

km distance from the Main City Rewa in District . It comprises of the urban area and

surroundings of the Mauganj Municipal parishad. It has a total population of 26,411

according to 2011 provisional population totals. The town constitutes a total area of

about 46.3 Sq. Km. under the jurisdiction of Mauganj Nagar Parishad and is divided into

15 no. of wards for management of civil services and administration. In June 1973,

Mauganj town was declared as Notified Area Committee and in 2011 the town got the

status of Nagar Parishad. The Project area of Mauganj town is 3265.30 hectares

excluding water bodies.

A. Existing Water Supply

11. Mauganj is predominantly dependent on ground water source for water supply. The sources of water to Mauganj Nagar Parishad are mainly through Tube wells power pumps with pump house and hand pumps. The major source of water in Mauganj Nagar Parishad is Nihayi River which flows in the north-eastern side of the town .

12. The town get majority of water supply directly from these tube wells located in various parts of the town without any treatment. The per capita supply of water is 50 liters per day is estimated under the existing supply system which is very low as compared to the prevalent national standards of 135 LPCD.

13. One OHT of capacity 45000 Gallon is located near Nagar Parishad and it is in use. Second OHT is of capacity 2.7 LL (staging 15 mt). It was constructed in year 1983 and it is not in use due to shortage of water.

14. The present water distribution system includes water pipelines system which is not sufficient. The water distribution arrangement includes one OHT in the town. Town gets majority of water supply through the network pipelines laid down in different part of the town. These network lines are linked with main pipelines coming from the ten tube wells (located in various parts of the town).

15. For the storage and supply of water, town has an over head tank which is situated in ward no. 3. In the town, water pipeline system or network has mainly 100 mm dia. ACP pipes. It is 40 Years old and it is filled twice in a day. Ward number 2, 3 and 4 get water supply from over head tank. The distribution line network in length about 2500 mt. is only exists and have leakage problem. Water during summer seasons or in emergencies and other occasions/functions are also supplied through Water Tankers.

16. The existing water distribution system in the town is very old and is connected at various places with new pipelines. GI pipes with diameters ranging from 80 mm to 150 mm majority of the water supply network. About 10 km of length of pipeline is laid for distribution system and it accounts to 68 percent of the existing road length.

17. The distribution network covers 68 percent of the developed area. Water is supplied for a total of 4 hours per day during winter and 2 hours per day in summer. Mauganj has very infrequent and interrupted water supply due to frequent and untimely power cut. The per capita supply works out to 50 LPCD.

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.


18. 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 5 tube wells located at various parts of the town. However, 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 10 km in which is laid out to be 30 years.

So 100% inhabitants of Mauganj town are not getting water supply due to non-

availability of distribution network where as other main components have been executed

fully or partly .

expanding the coverage and increasing operating efficiency.

21. DETAILS OF PROPOSED WATER SUPPLY WORKS

Proposed one River Ponding Structure at River Nihayi Near Existing Intake Well


Second River Ponding Structure is proposed at a distance of at Odda nala in right bank at Village Khatkari

Proposed intake well of 8.25 MLD Capacity on Odda nala right bank at Village Khatkari US side of Existing Stop dam.

Proposed Water Treatment Plant for 8.30 MLD near Existing Intake well. Proposed Clear Water sump for 4.00 Lac.Lit capacity at Main Head Work. Proposed OHT for 18.00 Lac Lit. at Zone 2. (One Existing OHT 45000galloon

taken in project)

22. Justification- No affect on down stream user due to construction of two Annicuts on Odda

nallah and Nihayi river

23. Proposed System: -Please refer line diagram showing where these dams are located. In

the map proposed dams have also been shown. It is also clarified that

Figure 1: map showing proposed annicuts on Odda nallah and Nihay river

(1) River Nihai is tributary of Oda Nala on left bank side of River Niahi at Junction of Oda Nala, there

is village Kon Mudariya & on the right bank village Chamarahar (Locally Known as Tin-Mohad).

(2) River Silar is also a tributary of the Oda Nala and joins to Oda Nala about 800 Mt. upstream side

of junction of Oda & River Nihai (Tinmohad).

(3) This Nihai & Silar Rivers both are tributary of Oda Nala and all are non-perennial including Oda

Nala. Thus all the dams are interlinked.


Figure 2:Map showing origin of river Nihai,Silar and Odda nallah

24. Annicut on River Nihai: - After construction of stop dam, surplus water will flow and shall meet

with Oda Nala as it is tributary of Oda at TIN MOHAD and shall feed to Oda Nala. Both the side of the

river,D/S of the proposed stop dam. These all are agriculture land. There is no any forest in this reach.

When there is no flow in the river there is no any adversity. There shall be good storage of back water in

River Nihayi due to stop dam on River Odda in length about 4 to 5 Km. and average water depth of 3 to 4

M.

25. Annicut on Oda Nala: -There shall be two stop dam downstream of the proposed dam at Odda

nala known as Karahi Weir & Sumeda Weir. Both the side of Oda Nala is agricultural land (left bank &

right bank). Oda Nala forms Bahuti Falls of 465ft. (141.70 M) at Bahuti village. Deep hilly valley starts

from Bahuti fall. There is forest on both side of valley after fall. After this fall (Oda) this is known as Nahala

Nala. Finally, meets with River Belan (Uttar Pradesh). Distance between proposed stop dam and

Bahuti Fall is about 10 Km. There is no any adverse effect on downstream users as they will get water

for irrigation purpose as per provision kept by the WRD.

26. Proposed System: - In the Project water demand for the ultimate year 2048 has been estimated

as 8.25 MLD. As the Flow of River Nihai reduces in the month of February and ceases in March. As the

flow started to reduce since February hence period for storage has been taken from January to June i.e.

Six Month (180) days. Draft year has also been considered.

27. Two Sources have been proposed for this Project (i) River Nihai (ii) Oda Nala. There are two

main tributary of Oda Nala, River Nihai& Silar River. Thus it is confirmed that River Nihai is tributary of

Oda Nala.

28. There are two stop dams on Oda Nala downstream of Junction of River Nihai& Oda Nala known

as TIN MOHAD. (1) Karahi Weir (Left Bank – Karahi Village and on the right bank – Village Khatkari) (2)

Sumeda Weir:- This stop dam is also on the Oda Nala downstream side of Karahi Weir at a distance of

about 4.5 Km. along the Oda Nala known as Karahi Weir.Both the stop dams have been constructed by

the W.R.D. in the year 2015.

Consultation done with the villagers of downstream users refer Annexure-2.


IV. FIELD WORK AND PUBLIC CONSULTATION

A. Public Consultation 30. 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.

31. 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 Appendix 2. provides a summary of consultations and discussions held.

VI. LAND AVAILABILITY AND INVOLUNTARY RESETTLEMENT IMPACTS Water Supply

32. No land acquisition or resettlement impacts are anticipated for any of the proposed civil works for Mauganj water supply subproject. Two river ponding structure/Annicuts are proposed on Nihayi river and Odda nala permission of construction on these two is to be taken from WRD.

33. Proposed Intake well of 8.25 MLD Capacity on Odda nala right bank at Village Khatkari. The Mauganj Water Treatment Plant for 8.30 MLD near Existing Intake well the land is in the government’s possession /ownership. The permission from Water Resource Department for land acquisition for intake well on Odda nala is conditions for granting of NOC, the Water Resource Department gave NOC . 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 visit on 21.01.16. As other sites are coming in the jurisdiction of MP Govt. land so only transfer is required from Revenue Department and laying comes under jurisdiction of Mauganj Municipal Parishad.

34. In Mauganj town raw water abstraction will be done from Nihayi river and Odda Nala then treated and supplied to the town. Construction of Intake well, raw water pump house, the proposed water treatment plant (WTP) at ward no.4 will be undertaken on land belonging to Water Resource Department (WRD) and Government of Madhya Pradesh. NOC from WRD recieved refer Annexure-7.

35. The Proposed Clear Water sump for 4.00 Lac.Lit capacity at Main Head Work near WTP. Proposed OHT for 18.00 Lac Lit. at Zone 2. The raw water rising mains will be laid underground from the intake well to WTP site along an existing road belonging to State highway. 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.

36. Raw water Rising main(13010mts) from Proposed Intake well to Proposed WTP, Dia: 400 mm. Length : 7850 mt. Type DI-K9. Raw water Rising Main From Existing intake well to Proposed WTP, Dia: 150 mm. Length : 150 mt. Type DI-K9, Rising Main From CWS to Junction A, Dia: 400 mm. Length : 2800 mt. Type DI-K9 along the ROW of PWD road and it will reach to OHT by crossing NH 7 , Rising Main From Junction A to Existing OHT-1 at Zone-1, Dia: 150 mm. Length : 50 mt. Type DI-K9 ,Rising Main From Junction A to Proposed OHT-2 at Zone-2, Dia: 300 mm. Length : 2160 mt. Type DI-K9 .

37. New distribution pipelines (97484m) are proposed to be laid along existing road ROWs.

Proposed pipe diameters range between 75 mm and 315 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.

38. Measures will be taken to minimize excavation, disturbance to pedestrians and traffic and avoid income loss to businesses, while minimizing road reconstruction costs. 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.

or 39. 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. No income loss is anticipated.

40. 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) Domestic water meters: Supply and installation of AMR compatible water meters for each

house service water connections 6509 nos. 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.

41. 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 Mauganj will be along the Nagar Parishad roads. The 43944 m distribution network pipelines in Mauganj 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. 42. The distribution network will pass through a Mandi or Haat areas in old Mauganj and

weekly vegetable market area in ward number 12 (every Friday) approximately spread over a stretch of 200m. 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.

Appendix 2 provides the list of stakeholders and community people consulted. 43. 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.

44. 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.

VII. CONCLUSIONS

A. Summary and Conclusions

45. 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 two proposed annicut on Nihayi river and Odda nala, Intake well on Odda Nala and WTP near existing Intake well on Nihayi river at Mauganj was owned by Revenue and Intake well on Odda nala will be constructed on Water Resource Department Land, NOC for that is under approval. The land records and details of acquisition if any, of these sites, appended to 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 Mauganj 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.

Appendix-4. 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: Rewa

b. Location (km): Mauganj 70 Kms

c. Civil work dates (proposed): NA

d. Technical Description: Mauganj-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?

On two existing OHTs no rehabilitation work is proposed Only SCADA will be installed on it..

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.

Is the ownership status and current usage of the land known?

All sites on Revenue Land sites and all are in vacant state.

Are there any non-titled people who live or earn their livelihood at the site or within the corridor of impact (COI) / Right of Way (ROW)?

Land is totally vacant
