Policy framework This resettlement policy framework prepared based on the OP 4.12 of the World Bank on involuntary resettlement (December, 2001) (PLs see Appendix 2 - Policy Framework for Compensation, Resettlement and Rehabilitation of DPs). The principle objective of this Policy Framework is to ensure that all DP will be compensated their losses at the replacement cost and provided with rehabilitation measures to assist them to improve or at least maintain their preproject living standards and income earning capacity. The Policy Framework lays down the principles and objectives, eligibility criteria of DP, entitlements, legal and institutional framework, modes of compensation and rehabilitation, people participation features, and grievances procedures that will guide compensation, resettlement and rehabilitation of DPs 1.4. Principles and Objectives The principles outlined in the World Bank's Operational Policies 4.12 (OP/BP 4.12) have been adopted in preparing this Policy Framework. n this regard, the following principles and objectives would be applied: Acquisition of land and other assets, and resettlement of people will be minimized as much as possible. All DP's residing, working, doing business or cultivating land in right of way (ROW) of transmission line (TL), surrounding areas of tower foundation, the substation areas, in the service roads under the projects as of the date of the baseline surveys are entitled to be provided with rehabilitation measures sufficient to assist them to improve or at least maintain their pre-project living standards, income earning capacity and production levels. Lack of legal rights to the assets lost should not bar the DP from entitlement to such rehabilitation measures. The rehabilitation measures to be provided are: (i) compensation at replacement cost, without deduction for depreciation or salvage materials for houses and other structures; (ii)agriculturalland for land of equal productive capacity acceptable to the DP or in cash at replacement cost according to the DP's choice; (iii) replacement of residential/premise land or equal size acceptable to the DP or in cash at replacement cost according to DP's choice; and (iv) transfer and subsistence allowances. Replacement residential and agricultural land will be as nearby as possible to the land that was lost. and accentable to the DP. ~ ~ NPC - NORTH POWER JOlNT-STOCK COi'vPAN'{ 15

The selected line route and DSSs location are the least impact option.. Substation location The substation is designed to location on the vacant land, low economic value or public land under the commune's administration. The survey and design should be avoid crossing to the markets, high density residential areas, villages and historical places. The substation is located nearby the roads, so the coming road is very short. Two plans are studied for putting the substation and the most utility is option. Select route The routine survey and design should be avoid crossing through markets, high density residential areas, villages, pagodas, and reserved nature... the TL should also not go parallel with the communication system petroleum and army stations. n order to mitigate the adverse impacts, the routine direction is selected in the ROW, along to the existing roads or crossing over the agricultural or garden land. The turning angles are applied, in some cases, the direction of turning angles may be 35-85. The turning angles may be about 90, if needed. By this solution, the route will cross over the road some times for not impact on the houses or structures. The selected TL will not exceed 1 Km compares with the existing national roads. The new roads are limited to build, try to use the existing ones. The temporary roads will be mainly built in the ROW area. For component project, two or three plans will be studied for the routine location and the most utility plan will be optioned. During the time of studying TL route, Electric construction and investment and investment consultation joint stock company has carefully studied the instead solution on map as well as at site for choosing the best solution for applied. The high of aerially installed substations, the applicable distance between the pole foundations, and the dimension of the pole foundations have been carefully considered during the design stage. The average applicable distance between the poles is 120 m for MV system. The best are to erect the pole is the vacant land. The difference dimensions are applied for each kind of foundation at each choosing location. The dimensions may be 3m 2 for MV pole. ~onstruction stage: NPC - NORTH POWER JONT-STOCK COMPANY 21

Rural energy Project - Additional Financing - Phase 1. - Yen Bai province DPs whose houses are in part or in total affected (temporarily or permanently) by the project and whose houses are in part or in total affected (temporarily or permanently) by the project or whose residential and premise and lor agricultural land is in part or in total affected (temporarily or permanently) by the project are provided compensation for the land they lose, and other assistance as necessary to achieve the objectives set out in this policy, if they occupy the project area prior to the cut-off-date defined in this RP. DPs whose business are affected in part or in part or in total(temporarily or permanently)by the project are provided resettlement assistance and other supports as necessary to achieve the objectives set out in this policy, if they occupy the project area prior to the cut-off-date defined in this RP. Persons who encroach on the area~ after the cut-off-date defined in this RP are not entitled to compensation or any other form of resettlement assistance. The methodology to be used in the valuation of losses for this project is based on their replacement cost. n this project, losses comprise land, structures and other assets. Residential cost for land includes the value of land at market price plus the cost taxes and frees to get LURe. For houses and other structures, the market cost of the materials shall be used to calculate the replacement cost to build a replacement structure with an area and the quality should be at least as good as those affected. For both totally and partially affected structures, compensation includes market cost of material, plus the costs of materials transport, labor and contractor fees, and registration and transfer taxes. Depreciation of the asset and amount saved in material will not form apart of replacement cost. 2.2.3 Comparison of GOV and WB approaches There are a number of ways in which the approaches of the Vietnam Government-either in policy or practice-are compatible with World Bank guidelines. The most important compatibilities are: Vietnam has a process whereby most people without legal land rights may meet conditions of legalization and receive compensation for losses. Permanent residents are provided with options that include relocation to an improved site, or cash, or a combination of the two. Resettlement sites offer not only better improved infrastructure and services but represent a higher standard of living. NPC - NORTH POWER JONT-STOCK COi'vlPANY 31

Rural energy Project - Additional Financing - Phase - Yen Bai province Allowances are provided to help the DPs in the transition period and there is an institutional structure through which people are informed, can negotiate compensation, and can appeal Differences between the approaches and measures that need to be addressed within the program also exist. However, in this context, procedures exist within national and city government that allow the granting of wavers of domestic law on specific projects that may be conflict with that of the funding agency. On the issue of land tenure and the legal right to compensation, the Government and World Bank approaches are compatible. The Government has its own process in place whereby land occupied without legal documentation can be legalized; this land, however, is compensated for at a rate equal to 100% of land price minus the taxes and fee for land use right registration from 15 October 1993 (Clause 49,50 of Art 42 of the 2003 Land Law). Compensation at replacement cost is ensured in Art.6 of Decree 197/2004/ND-CP dt.03 Dec.,2004 that '... People who have land being required shall be compensated with land of similar land use purpose. f there is no land for compensation, cash compensation equal to land use rights value at the time of land acquisition shall be applied. f there is any differences in value, in case of compensation by new land or house, such differences shall be settled in cash' and,art.19 of the same Decree that '...

Appropriate route would reduce the project cost and adverse impacts on the local communities and environment The following principles were followed: NPC - NORTH POWER JONT-STOCK. COlVPANY 47

( Rural energy Project - Additional Financing - Phase 1 Yen Bai province The routes selected are shorted possible with possible with DSS locations of optimal. Such routes are close to public roads to avoid land acquisition for access roads and minimize cost during construction, operation and maintenance. The TL should avoid traversing or running close to the important projects (i.e gasoline, explosive storages, rado station), sensitive location (i.e historic and cultural assets) protected forests and areas with high trees. Stop sides and turning are also avoid to reduce leveling and also avoided to reduce leveling and angle towers. During the mapping of the routes, Power Company and Electric Construction and nvestment Consultation Joint Stock Company hav thoroughly studied different alternatives on map and at sites to select the optimal ones. To avoid impacts, certain changes in direction of the routes and the large turning angles of the routes are applied ie the turning direction angles in certain cases up to 35 _85, even in the case necessary; such angle may reach around 90. With solution, the routes have to pass through the road in several places to avoid impacts to to house/ structures. Technical solutions The applicable average tower distance is 120 m for the MY system. Pole sites shall be located on empty land. Applicable of different dimensions for pole foundation to be suitable to their function and the selected locations. Area of foundation size will be varying from 3 m2 management for MY pole. Canals and existing public roads are used for temporary servie/transport and no temporary service roads are required to be built. 4.2.3 mpact mit.igation measures in construction stage During the detail technical design, Power Company 1 and Electric Construction and nvestment Consultation Joint Stock Company would reinvestigated the routes and made certain modification, if necessary, for optimal results. Suitable measures and optimum arrangements for the project construction are considered i. e construction would be carried out right the harvest of crops and terminated before the next sowing. To achieve such target, apt workforces, with working shifts should be scheduled to shorten the temporarily affected period. The construction camps for works in the construction period shall be located on the bare of public near by headquarters of communes.
