CDM Smith – TAEC- ICON 1

A. Executive Summary 1. The proposed Kathmandu Valley Water Supply Improvement Project1 will support the ongoing efforts of the Government of Nepal towards improving the water supply services in Kathmandu Valley. The project will invest in bulk water transmission and distribution network improvement systems, and will complement past and ongoing Asian Development Bank (ADB) projects.2The resultant synergy is expected to lead to increased efficiencies, greater improvement in service delivery, and higher impact on health outcomes and quality of life for inhabitants of Kathmandu Valley. This biannual report presents the Resettlement Plan (RP) implementing status from July to December 2013. It will be implemented by the Project Implementation Directorate (PID), Kathmandu Upatyaka Khanepani Limited (KUKL), who will address any resettlement impacts, permanent or temporary, during project implementation. 2. The overall project is classified as category C in accordance with ADB Safeguard Policy Statement (SPS).

B. Project description 3. Melamchi Water Supply Project (MWSP) has been implementing since December 2000, aiming to improve the overall of water supply and wastewater systems of the Kathmandu Valley. MWSP covers parts of the Indrawati and Bagmati watersheds and project areas include districts of Kathmandu, Lalitpur and Bhaktapur. The key water diversion facilities, headwork and diversion tunnel and access roads are located within Sindhupalchowk district, whereas, the water treatment plant at Sundarijal, water distribution network, balancing reservoirs and the other ancillary structures are located within Kathmandu Valley. The implementation of the project was affected during the conflict period

1 The project was prepared through PPTA 4893-NEP: Preparing the Kathmandu Valley Water Distribution,

Sewerage, and Urban Development Project, approved on 13 December 2006. Due to restructuring of ongoing loans, the work of PPTA started in 2009, and final report was submitted in May 2010.

2 Loan 1820-NEP (SF): Melamchi Water Supply Project was approved on 21 December 2000, and became effective on 28 November 2001. Loans 2058/2059-NEP (SF): Kathmandu Valley Water Services Sector Development Program were approved on 18 December 2003, and became effective on 7 December 2004.



due to various local and national issues. In the mean time some of the donors withdrew their support for the project in 2005 and 2006. 4. Later in 2008, MWSP was split into two distinct subprojects: (i) Subproject 1: Melamchi River Water Diversion Project covering all project activities in the Melamchi Valley, including the Water Diversion Tunnel (WDT) and Water Treatment Plant (WTP); and (ii) Subproject 2: Kathmandu Valley Water Supply and Sanitation Project to undertake distribution network improvement inside Kathmandu Valley. The implementation responsibilities were entrusted to Project Implementation Directorate (PID), which was formed under the Kathmandu Upatakaya Khanepani Limited (KUKL) Board of Directors, through a MOU signed on 19 April 2009 between Government of Nepal (GoN) [Ministry of Finance (MoF), Ministry of Physical Planning and Works (MPPW)], Kathmandu Valley Water Supply and Management Board (KVWSMB), KUKL and Asian Development Bank (ADB). Resettlement Plans have been prepared with the entitlements, assistance and benefits, provision of business, institutional arrangements, tasks and responsibilities of the each level of the agencies involved in resettlement planning for the project.

secondary and tertiary levels as well as house connections in parts of KUKL service area;

- Design and construction of the Bulk Distribution System (BDS); - Wastewater Systems Improvements in a phased manner; and - Improvement of the Service Management system of KUKL.

5. The ADB Public Communication Policy (PPC 2011) refers the Safeguards Policy Statement (SPS 2009) with respect to information disclosure related to project safeguard documentation states that ADB shall post on its website the safeguard document submitted by the borrower and or/ client. These safeguard documents include Resettlement and Indigenous People Plan (RP & IPP), and the social and safeguard monitoring reports. To comply with the PCP of ADB, the KUKL, PID shall submit one semiannual monitoring reports periodically over the total implementation period of the project, covering Environment, Resettlement and safeguard issues. This also has been spelled out in the project document and loan covenant of KUKL that the borrower/client shall submit the aforesaid reports to ADB. Prior to civil works implementation, all the subprojects selected for construction development to be screened and classified using ADB's classification system. The Kathmandu Valley Water Supply and Sanitation Project is classified C for involuntary resettlement and category C for indigenous people. The project, in terms of its impact has been categorized as in category – C C. Scope of social safeguard impacts 6. The covenants to the loan agreement with ADB , requires that Resettlement Framework (RF) documents be complied during the implementation of project in accordance with ADB's SPS 2009 and RF prepared for the project and agreed between the Borrower and ADB. Any projects that involve land acquisition and resettlement impacts to be prepared RPs and other safeguard reports as required under the scope of approved RP. 7. The MWSDB conducted EIA before the implementation of Melamchi Water Supply Project. It is assumed that most of the environmental issues are have been addressed and mentioned in EIA report. As the MWSDB project separated Melamchi diversion and water distribution into two projects a supplementary IEE has been conducted and approved to address the environmental issues of Kathmandu Valley Water Supply Improvement Project.



No significance impact will be resulted by the construction activities under the project. Efforts have been continued to minimize environmental and social team in design the project activities. The environmental parameters mentioned in IEE reports have been monitored in project construction activities. 8. There will be no displacement of people, other than temporary relocation of hawkers and mobile vendors during construction. However, during the construction phase there will be temporary inconveniences such as increased vehicle movements that affect the pedestrians of the immediate vicinity of the work.

To cover resettlement-related needs of the Project Affected Persons (PAP's), under Loan 1820, it has prepared a Resettlement Policy Framework (RPF), approved by the Cabinet in 2057 (2000 AD). The policy also ensures benefits to non-titled persons such as encroachers and squatters with appropriate displacement allowances for relocation and income restoration assistance. The Compensation Determination Committee (CDC) headed by Chief District Officer is responsible for evaluation of property and its compensation.

commercial enterprises. - Displacement allowances - Rehabilitation measures - Loss of government property - Loss of community facilities and resources - Community losses - General counseling
