project’s notices at the offices of local authorities, providing project information booklet
(PIBs), posters, etc. These activities are organized by MRB, DPCs, WPCs, DCARBs and
Project Consultants at the affected community meeting room of Wards.
31. During the current project implementation phase, the information dissemination is
enhanced in the areas where there are impacts on people's lives and where households
have complaints. The information contents disseminated include: (i) information about the
compensation policy and benefits of the AHs; (ii) information on environmental impacts; (iii)
problems arising during the Project's construction and equipment installation that affect
people; and (iv) information on complaints and complaint resolution; and (v) information on
income restoration.
32. MRB has worked closely with the DPCs, WPCs and concerned departments to
disseminate the project information, which is kept updated, construction activities and
additional impacts (if any). Apart from previous complaints, during the reporting period there
are no questions from AHs in the informational interviews relating to the project's
construction.
33. MRB confirmed that they have recorded all meeting documents and consultation with
AHs. The AHs that met the experts also said that they are fully aware of their rights and
where they can file complaints. The External Resettlement Monitoring Consultant will
continue to review the documents to see if any further corrective actions are required.
34. For the information dissemination, the community consultation to prepare the uRP and
Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) for the tunnels has been fully implemented by the HGU and
LHC Consultant. Include:

   - The meeting for information dissemination, community consultation and socio-
economic survey was conducted by the HGU/LHC from August 2018 to December 2019. In
these meetings, general information about the project, plans for tunnel drilling for the
underground section from Kim Ma to Tran Hung Dao Station will be conducted in Q1-
Q2/2021 and preliminary impacts, implementation plans, results of the BCS, BRA
implementation of have been announced to households, communities and stakeholders.
   - During the ADB's review of the BCS and BRA reports, the MRB has been directing
HGU/LHC to continue the information dissemination and community consultations with all
affected households living in 50 buildings/houses according to the BRA results and will be
continued until all impacts are identified. According to the MRB's plan, this work will be done
in Q1/2021.
   - The policy of compensation, support and temporary resettlement for AHs who must be
temporarily resettled due to the construction of the tunnel has been prepared by the
contractor and is in the process of waiting for comments of the stakeholders and finalizing for
submission to MRB, ADB agree and HPC for review and approval. Immediately after this
policy is approved by ADB and HPC, an action plan appendix for temporary AHs will be
submitted to ADB and MRB for approval prior to the construction of the tunnel. The uRP and
the RAP will be disseminated, consulted and publicized to AHs and communities during the
preparation period as well as after being approved by ADB, HPC, and MRB.
   - It should be noted that the information disclosure and community consultations for the
tunnel construction includes but is not limited to the following: the policy on compensation,
support and resettlement; GRM; Detailed plan for temporary evacuation (time, location, how
to organize...); and plan to evaluate the damage of 43 buildings/houses and plan to rebuild 7
buildings/houses, etc,.

V.     IMPACT ON LAND ACQUISITION AND HOUSEHOLDS

35. MRB has coordinated with DPCs and DCARBs to fully implement the land acquisition
procedures in accordance with the laws. The determination of land area to be acquired was
public and transparent with the participation of the AHs, neighbouring families and the
stakeholders. Questions on land area were promptly answered so that by the time of
preparation this report, there are no records of any questions about compensation claims.
36. The Project's land acquisition progress has not met the requirements of the “Adjusted
Plan of Partial Site Handover for the Remaining Areas” agreed by HPC and ADB. MRB has
explained that, for S9, S10 and S11, construction activities are happening on the northern
strip and the contractor has yet to provide specific plan for construction at the southern strip,
where there is still a problem. Thus, the Adjusted Plan of Partial Site Handover for the
Remaining Areas has no effect on the construction progress is a suitable judgment.
37. Particularly for the additional land acquired 643,02 m2 for S9 and S10, a complete RP
addendum/ Due Diligence Report (DDR), was prepared in December, 2020 by MRB and will
be submited to ADB for review and approval in Q1/2021 to ensure the compliance with the
ADB policy 6.

5.1. Land acquisition and impact
38. The total of 204,134.52 m2 of land (including 643.02 m2 of additional land acquisition
required at S9 and S10 in Q2/2020) are acquired for the project, of which 17,612.1 m2 land
are for sidewalks, roads and 186,522.42 m2 of land are managed and used by 534
households and 21 organizations.
39. For the area of Depot and Access Line - Phase 1, there are total of 229 AHs, and the
total agricultural land acquired is 148,340 m2.
40. For the area of Depot and Access Line - Phase 2, there are total of 156 AHs, and the
total land acquisition area is 21,824.6 m2, of which 90 AHs are relocated, 30 AHs have
business affected, and 21 AHs are eligible for resettlement land and will be resettled in Xuan
Phuong resettlement site, Tay Tuu ward, Bac Tu Liem District.
41. For Chem - Ha Dong area (high voltage 110kv), there are 04 AHs in total and the total
agricultural land acquired is 190.0 m2.
42. For the viaduct area and elevated stations of Package CP01 and Package CP02, there
are a total of 02 affected agencies and the total land area owned by the state to be acquired
is 325.9 m2.
43. For underground stations of Package CP03, there are a total of 164 households and
organizations affected, of which there are 145 AHs and 19 organizations. The total acquired
land area is 33,454.02 m2 (including 643.02 m2 of additional land acquired in Q2/2020), of
which 15,841.92 m2 of land is used by AHs and 17,162.1 m2 is public land.

44. Impacts caused by the construction of the tunnel are being addressed by the HGU/LHC
Contractor (Package CP03) through the BCS, BRA and other potential impacts survey. An
uRP and a Resettlement Action Plan (RAP) on compensation, support and temporary
resettlement for the households and organizations affected by the tunnel construction will be
prepared by HGU/ LHC contractor to submit MRB and get approved by ADB and HPC/MRB
before the tunnel drilling is implemented, as required by the donors as well as the regulations
of SPS 2009 - ADB. Information on impacts and mitigation measures will be added to the
next report after the uRP is approved by ADB, HPC and RAP is approved by MRB.
45. According to the BRA results updated in December 2020, 50 buildings/houses are
determined to be affected by the construction of the tunnel. In which: 7 buildings/houses will
be demolished and rebuilt after the tunnel drilling is completed; 43 buildings/houses will be
affected and people living there must be temporarily resided during the tunnel drilling. There
will be no land acquisition of affected households and organizations except their temporary
residence during the tunnel drilling and their buildings were checked and confirmed as safe;
and the households having to demolish and rebuild new houses. It is however noted that
households will be involuntarily temporally displaced and will involuntarily loose access to
their assets as a result of involuntary restriction of land use; hence, IR requirement will be
triggered and a respective social safeguard document will be prepared to address such
impacts.
46. According to HGU/LHC's report, the period of temporary residence of AHs currently
living in 50 buildings/houses is 1-2 weeks (for 43 buildings/houses) and plus 6 months for 07
buildings/houses 7. However, according to the Consultant's point of view, it is necessary to
carefully calculate and fully consult with the affected households on the temporary residence
period because it depends a lot on such factors as construction plans, construction progress,
progress of safety assessment of 43 buildings/houses that are not demolished before moving
residents back, re-construction period, construction period of 07 buildings/houses, and other
objective factors.
47.      The impacts 8 are summarized and presented in Table 3 below.

7
  According to HGU/LHC report: “The temporary land-use duration, as a basis for applying rehabilitation
measures, is calculated between the time the land-users hand over their affected land to the project and the time
they receive the land back, plus 6 months to restore land and property into original state.” The time of handing
over the land to the project and receiving the land back is from 1 to 2 weeks.
8
    Impacts of the construction of the underground tunnel from Giang Vo to Tran Hung Dao street are not included.

49. Under the direction of HPC and the urging of ADB, the plan for the land acquisition
progress of four underground stations (S9, S10, S11 & S12) has been urgently coordinated by
MRB with the stakeholders. However, by the end of Q4/2020, still some outstanding issues
have not been resolved at S9 and S11 on the South (For details see Section 9.3, Chapter IX
and Table 20 this Report), so the land acquisition progress plan has been adjusted to hand

5.3. Additional land acquisition for S9 and S10:
50. The compensation, support and resettlement for additional acquisition land for
underground stations will comply with the provisions of the approved RF and the uRP.
Additional support policies for the AHs that are acquired several times have been reviewed
before the compensation plans are prepared 9. The total area of additional acquisition land is
643.02 m2, of which 264.62 m2 land used by households and 378.40 m2 is used by
organizations.
51. The DONRE has updated the land use plan for the additional acquisition area of S9
and S10 to submit to the People's Council of Hanoi city for approval. At the same time, since
July 2018, MRB has worked with local authorities to implement the consultation and
information disclosure, DMS and preparation of compensation, support and resettlement
plans for AHs.
52. In order to comply with ADB SPS - 2009, MRB is required to submit to ADB and HPC a
complete performance report on the uRP compliance, which was approved in August 2015 for the
additional land acquisition at S9 and S10. The procedure is as follows:
   - At the MOUs in April 2019 and November 2019, ADB and MRB agreed that “ADB will
support MRB by mobilizing an expert to prepare a RP Addendum for the additional land
acquisition in S9 and S10”. This content is still in the discussion and both sides come to the
temporary agreement at the end of Q1/2020 (Item 7 Table 18 QRMR Q1/2020).

  The Ba Dinh DPC issued Official Letter No.2254/UBND-DSDT dated October 12, 2018 requesting the HPC to
approve additional support for the affected households whose land is acquired several times. The HPC issued
Official Letter No.8550/VB-GPMB dated October 30, 2018 to assign the DONRE to preside over and coordinate
with the DOF, the DOC and the related units to inspect and guide Ba Dinh DPC to carry out the land acquisition
and compensation and support according to the regulations, ensuring synchronous policies in the city. The
DONRE issued Official Letter No.2855/STNMT-CCQLDD reporting the HPC on the proposal to support the site
clearance policy for AHs whose land is acquired several times, support for house renting and support for business
production for business households, for the households with additional land acquisition.

  - In Q2/2020, ADB and MRB come to an agreement that “ADB will support MRB by
mobilizing an expert to prepare a Due Diligence Report (DDR) for the additional land
acquisition in S9 and S10” (Item 6 Table 18 QRMR Q2/2020).
  - In Q3/2020, ADB and MRB come to an agreement that “ADB will support MRB by
mobilizing an expert to prepare a Due Diligence Report (DDR) for the additional land
acquisition in S9 and S10. MRB already provided detailed plans of compensation to ADB in
Q2/2020” (Item 6 Table 18 QRMR Q3/2020).
     - In Q4/2020, ADB's experts have worked with MRB and PMS2’s Social Safeguard
experts to prepare and finalize the draft Due Diligence Report (DDR), and the completion
and submission to ADB and HPC is expected in Q1/2021.
   - This content will be monitored further and the results will be included in the next
external resettlement monitoring report.
53. For this additional second land acquisition (for original AHs whose land was acquired
for the first time), MRB cooperated with DPC of Ba Dinh and Dong Da, WPCs and concerned
organizations and mass organizations publicly apologized in writing to each AH and
organization that was acquired in the first time and acquired in the second time. MRB also
coordinated with DPCs and Consultant Systra to publicly organize the planning, demarcation
and hand over the land acquisition landmarks for the Contractor CP03, DCARBs and send
land acquisition notices to 15 AHs. The details of additional LA are shown in Table 6 below.

54. The approved total number of compensation and support plans is 21 plans (including 15
AHs and 06 affected organizations). In June 2019, the plans were publicly announced and sent
directly to AHs and organizations. However, due to some problems relating to AHs on the
design of Ventilation system at Station S9 that need to be reviewed and the resettlement policy
for AHs due to the second land acquisition should be considered. Therefore, the land
acquisition plan has been adjusted.
55. As of Q4/2020, the districts have paid compensation and support for 12/15 AHs and
6/6 organizations for the additional land acquisition. The remaining 3/15 AHs will be paid in
Q1/2021. The acquired land area is 578.60 m2, of which 142.68 m2 of land is owned by AHs
and 378.40 m2 of land used by the organizations, and only the remaining in S9 is 27.32 m2
of land is owned by the AHs has not been recovered.
