2.2.1 Short Land Acquisition & Resettlement Plans (LARPs)

9. The following Short Land Acquisition and Resettlement kris (LARPs) have

been prepared by M/S BPI for the project componen which have been

approved by ADB and IESCO. Their Urdu Version is vailable on IESCO

website for public information.

i. Short LARP of Bagh - Hattian 132 KV Transmission Line.

ii. Short LARP of Mangla Left Bank - Rajjar 132 KV ransmission Line.



iii. Short LARP of Choa Saidan Shah - Noor Pur Sethi Grid Station &

132 KV Transmission Line.

I. Bea - Hattian 132 kV Transmission Line Subproject:

10. The Bagh - Hattian 132kV transmission line subproject has been proposed by

Islamabad Electric Supply Company (IESCO) to improve electric power

supply in Hattian area of Muzaffarabad district of Azad Jammu Kashmir

(AJK). The existing 66kV grid station at Hattian will be converted into 132kV

and connected to Bagh 132kV grid station by means of a new 25.22 km long

transmission line (TL). The new 132kV equipment Will be installed within

the bounds of the existing grid station, without acquiring any additional

land. The transmission line will traverse a government forest and five

villages, of which two villages are in Bagh district . a three villages in

Muzaffarabad district.

11. The grid station's conversion works will be carried out within the existing

boundary, and no additional land will be acquired for this purpose.

However, construction of the new transmission line will affect 12,420 m2 of

crops and 932 wood trees (918 forest trees and 14 private trees), thereby

affecting 6 farming households (AHs), with a population of 84 (APs). No

land will be acquired permanently for this subproject, nor it will affect built-

up structures or fruit trees. None of the six AHs will be displaced or lose

more than 10% of their productive assets.

IL Choa Saiden Shah to Noor Pur Sethi 132 kV Transmission Line

Subproject:

12. The Choa Saidan Shah to Noor Pur Sethi (CSS-NPS) 13 V transmission line

subproject has been proposed by IESCO to improve elec u is power supply in

Noor Pur Sethi area in Chakwal district of Punjab pr. wince. The existing

66kV grid station at Noor Poor Sethi will be convert d into 132kV and

connected to Choa Saidan Shah 132kV grid station by m-ans of a new 47.65

km long transmission line (TL).




13. The new 132kV equipment will be installed within e boundary of the

existing grid station without acquiring any additional 1 d, and therefore,

there will be no impacts of this component. The new 1 2kV double circuit

transmission line will pass through six villages of M akwal district and

temporarily affect a total of 55.15 HA of land with agric tural crops and 148

trees (79 fruit and 69 wood trees). The subproject will feet a total of 171

farming households (AHs) losing agricultural crops an• trees, with a total

population of 2,158 (APs). No built-up structures will e affected by this

subproject. None of the AHs are to be displaced or I s more than 10% of

their productive assets.

III. Man la Le Bank to Ra''ar 132 kV Transmission Line Sub ro ect:

14. The Mangla Left Bank to Rajjar 132kV transmission line .ubproject has been

proposed by IESCO to improve electric power supply in ajjar area in Gujrat

district of Punjab province. The existing 66kV grid station at Rajjar will be

converted into 132kV and connected to Mangla Left B• 132kV grid station

by means of a new 44.76 km long transmission line.

15. The new 132kV equipment will be installed within e boundary of the

existing grid station, without acquiring any ad• 'tional land. The

transmission line will pass through nine villages of Mirpur district of Azad

Jammu Kashmir (AJK) and Gujrat district of Punjab province. The

construction and stringing works of transmission line will affect 53.72 HA of

crops and 332 wood trees. Besides, some six built-up ctures (4 houses

and 2 boundary walls) are found falling in outer fringes of the transmission

line which are likely to be partially damaged during t e stringing activity

only. Altogether, the TL's execution works will affect 200 farming
