1. INTRODUCTION

1.1 BACKGROUND

The Nuziveedu Seeds Ltd.(NSL) is a leading Quality Seed, Agribiotech and Infrastructure Company. The company was established in the year 1973, carved a niche for itself in the field of Agribusiness and presently consolidated itself as the Pioneer in Indian Seed Industry. M/s NSL Nagapatnam Power and Infratech Private Limited (NPIPL), a group company of NSL is an emerging player in the power sector, proposes to setup a Coal based Super Critical Thermal Power project of 2x700 MW capacity at Tentulei in Angul District, Odisha State. The project was originally developed by M/s Mahanadhi Aban Power Company Limited (MAPCL). The project now has been acquired by NPIPL. The Orissa Industrial Infrastructure Development Corporation (IDCO) has lent support to the initiative by providing 763.88 hectares of land for the project.

The land is been acquired through Land Acquisition Act 1894. The land requirement for the project may result in considerable no of people either becoming landless or becoming small and marginal farmers. The resultant adverse impacts on the land loosers and homestead oustees are being addressed by implementing a Rehabilitation Action Plan based on the Orissa R&R Policy, 2006.

In order to improve the socio‐economic status of the local population, a set of interventions aimed at raising the socio‐economic status and human development indicators of the local community are proposed through a community development plan. In recognition of this and in line with the guidelines of the Ministry of Environment and Forests (MoEF), Government of India, it is proposed to objectively assess development needs of the local communities, to plan and implement measures and to conduct a socio‐economic baseline survey. The outcome of the needs assessment and the socio‐economic survey served as inputs in preparing Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Plan for the local population.

The present report comprises the findings of the Social Impact Assessment and presents a Rehabilitation Action Plan (RAP) and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) Plan for the affected population.

1.2 BENEFITS OF THE PROJECT

Proposed power plant will result in considerable growth of stimulating the industrial and commercial activities in the Odisha State. Small and medium scale industries may be further developed as a consequence. Proposed power plant would be beneficial in reducing the existing and ever escalating demand of electricity in India. In operation phase, the proposed plant would require significant workforce of non‐technical and technical persons. Migration of persons with better education and professional experience will result in increase of population and literacy in the surrounding villages.

1.3 MEASURES TAKEN FOR MINIMIZING IMPACTS

Efforts were made to minimize the adverse impacts of the project. Some of these include the following:

1) Site selection for construction of infrastructure and other facilities were done in such as manner which involved minimal land take

2) During the design stage additional care will be taken to avoid cultural and religious properties and public property

3) Efforts are made to avoid/minimize displacement of habitation/settlements centers

1.4 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

The objective of the study is to prepare baseline socio‐economic survey to generate the necessary data and information, so as to prepare an appropriate Resettlement and Rehabilitation action Plan a CSR Plan based on a need assessment in the periphery of the project site and study how to contribute to the socio‐economic development of the habitations contiguous to the area of operation.

More specifically, the objectives are:

a) To make an inventory into the extent and nature of adverse impact to be caused by the project

b) To identify the villages and urban centers likely to be affected as a result of land purchase for proposed project

c) To identify the affected persons from the land purchase for the project activities

d) To collect baseline demographic and socio‐economic characteristics of affected people residing in the affected area

e) To prepare an appropriate Rehabilitation and Resettlement Plan for displaced for improving/restoring the living standards of affected population

f) To prepare a Corporate Social Responsibility for community development activity

1.5 SCOPE OF THE STUDY

The scope of the study includes carrying out a sample baseline socio‐economic survey in the study area and to generate the necessary data and information, so as to prepare an appropriate CSR Plan for the local population. The scope of the work includes but not limited to the following:

1. To generate a baseline profile of the villages located around the project site and detailing the existing community infrastructure and other facilities.

2. To generate a profile of accessibility and availability of basic amenities such as schools, colleges, health facilities, water availability and supply, transport facilities, roads, recreation facilities and other amenities in the identified villages.

3. To conduct consultations with the local communities and their representatives and undertake a gap analysis and prioritize the development interventions.

4. To prepare a detailed CSR plan including both capital and recurring cost provision.

1.6 APPROACH AND METHODOLOGY

This study carried out wide‐ranging consultations with various stakeholders and collected both primary and secondary data. The study adopted both quantitative and qualitative approaches to the data collection and analysis. The quantitative data collection inevitably included socio‐economic survey of identified households in the habitations of surrounding villages. The qualitative data collection employed participatory methods such as village‐ level meetings, focus group discussions (FGDs) with diverse stakeholder groups, and interviews with functionaries of relevant implementing agencies, community leaders, civil society representatives and other stakeholders. Key tasks undertaken as part of the study include the following:

1.7 INITIAL ROUND OF CONSULTATIONS IN THE STUDY VILLAGES

The core purposes of the initial round of consultations were: to gain a broad understanding of each village and to inform the village communities of the proposed survey; to identify the core development gaps; to get an idea of the sample size, that is, the number of households that could be surveyed and to gauge their willingness to be surveyed and if so check on their availability; to identify all stakeholders who should be consulted during the study such as the village elected representatives, community leaders, government officials such as village development/revenue officers, members of SHGs, doctors and other village medical practitioners.

1.8 SOCIO‐ECONOMIC SURVEY AT HOUSEHOLD LEVEL

The sample socio‐economic survey for the households identified will help in identifying the existing socio‐economic conditions, and living standards of local people, their vulnerability, status of infrastructure and access to critical services such as health and education facilities. A socio‐economic survey questionnaire was used for the household survey. The core issues covered by the survey questionnaire include:

• Socio‐Economic Profile: it covered dimensions such as family structure, occupations, income levels, housing status, and assets owned.

• Access to basic services; health status; participation in development schemes of the government; and the level of linkages with mainstream economic and social systems.

• Access to employment including wage labour; living and working conditions of workers; and educational and skills status.

• Poor and vulnerable persons/families: such as the SCs, STs, women headed households, elderly, physically or mentally challenged; and their socio‐economic profile.

• Perceptions and feedback on issues related to social and physical infrastructure, welfare schemes and the interventions needed to address the gaps and deficiencies.

1.9 QUALITATIVE SURVEY

Quantitative surveys may not always reveal the complete picture. This is particularly true with regard to assessing the development needs and priorities of the poor and vulnerable

sections. Qualitative methods are particularly useful in assessing the lager and systemic issues that need to be addressed in order to raise the socio‐economic status of the local communities. In other words, qualitative approaches supplement and complement the quantitative methods and help us in either qualifying or confirming or modifying the results of quantitative surveys.

The qualitative survey included community consultations, focus group discussions and in depth interviews with various sections of the local people such as Panchayat members, community leaders, women, children, persons with disabilities, knowledgeable persons/key informants, and government officials to elicit their interests, needs, expectations and suggestions, which were incorporated into the CSR Plan. The consultations also focused on exploring mechanisms for participation in planning, implementation and monitoring of community development measures. Considering the area coverage and the convenience of the people PRA were conducted in all the villages. PRA is an effective tool not only because it helps in decision‐making but also forms the basis for planning for developmental interventions in the affected villages.

1.10 STUDY TOOLS

A variety of tools are being used depending on the type of information to be collected and the objective. The study tools consist of:

1. Socio‐Economic Survey: Household Questionnaire
2. Socio‐Economic Profile of the Village
3. Checklist for Community Consultations
4. Checklist for Focus Group Discussions.
5. PRA: Social Mapping, Resource Mapping, Seasonal Mapping

A copy of the village format, socio‐economic survey profile is presented as Annexure‐1.

1.11 DATA ANALYSIS AND REPORTING

The quantitative data collected through the structured questionnaire was systematically coded, validated, tabulated and analyzed. Wherever required, the analysis was supplemented with information collected through desk research. The detailed qualitative information collected from a range of stakeholders supplemented the primary data. After systematic analysis of primary data and a synthesis of qualitative information a detailed CSR Plan is prepared and submitted after incorporating the comments and suggestions.

2. SOCIO‐ECONOMIC PROFILE OF THE STUDY AREA

2.1 INTRODUCTION TO STUDY AREA

The proposed project (2x700 MW Coal Based Power Plant) will be located at Tentulei village, Talcher CD Block, Angul District, Odisha state. Talcher is one of the 4 sub‐divisions of Anugul District. Situated on the right bank of the river Brahmani, the capital of the erstwhile Talcher State is one of the fastest growing industrial and mining complexes of the country. Talcher is known for its coal reserves. It has numbers of underground and open‐cast mines. The coalfields are managed by Mahanadi Coalfields Limited (MCL), a subsidiary of Coal India Limited (CIL). The establishment of Talcher Thermal Power Station (TTPS), Heavy Water Plant and the Collieries (MCL) have greatly enhanced the importance of the place.

Angul District and ‐ Talcher area in the state of Orissa is one of the oldest industrial clusters of the country. This area is located in the central part of Orissa about 120km from the state capital Bhubaneswar and 160km from the Bay of Bengal. It is 139m above the Mean Sea Level (MSL) and is bounded between 20°37´N to 21°10´N and 84º28´E to 85º28´E Industrialization started in this area quiet early with operation of coal mines The first coal mine started operating in 1922 and the area had its first operational railway line in 1923. River Brahmani and its tributaries form the main drainage system and source of water. Two National Highways pass through the area making it an attractive industrial destination. The industrial activities picked up in sixties, eighties and during first decade of this century. This area has grown steadily and now is a prominent industrial hub of the country. Coal mines, thermal power, aluminium smelting, iron and steel, sponge iron and ferro‐alloys are the dominant sectors in this region. There is one sports stadium, market complex and Talcher Thermal Railway Halt.

Despite the industrial activity, the local economy is still dependent on agriculture with rainfed farming being the norm; and most farmers are small holders. With little diversification into non‐farm activities, casual and regular work in the nearby industrial zone is the most important form of non‐farm activity, supplementing land‐based activities. Women mostly work as farm labourers.

However, the integration of the area with the mainstream economy has picked up momentum over the past few 15 years or so owing to improvements in infrastructure (roads), industrialization, private transport, an increasing number of government welfare

schemes and communications. In terms of education and employment opportunities, the area is lagging behind in catching up with others with respect to technical and professional education.

2.2 SOCIO‐DEMOGRAPHIC PROFILE OF PROJECT AREA

The socio‐demographic profile of the project State of Odisha, project District of Angul and project Study Area of Talchar Block is presented in Table 2.1 below. For most of the indicators such as proportion of rural and urban divide, sex ratio, households size there is no major variation. However for other indicators such as literacy rate it is more in study area. This was due to the large number of industries coming into the area and locals getting themselves educated to meet the job requirements.

Males constitute 60% of the population and females 40%. Talcher has an average literacy rate of 77%, higher than the national average of 59.5%: male literacy is 80%, and female literacy is 62%. In study area, 12% of the population is under 6 years of age.

2.4 OCCUPATION PROFILE IN PROJECT AREA

The occupation classification showed that out of the total number of workers, a majority comprise other workers (76%) which is mainly industrial workers. However in the rural pockets the majority of the population of the area is dependent on agriculture for livelihood. While agricultural labour engaged in cultivation is 35.8% 47.04% are employed in industries. About 15.71% people do their own cultivation, whereas only 1.45% people have their own cottage/SSI units.

The share of the income of the families from various sources was as given below.

o Cultivation of own land ‐ 29.28%
o Agricultural labour ‐ 22.17%
o Cottage and other industries ‐ 42.63%
o Own business – 3.71%
o Fisheries and bee keeping ‐ 2.21%

The average monthly income of the families was about Rs.4,000. This indicates economic backwardness of the people living in the area specially in the villages.

2.5 HEALTH & MEDICAL FACILITY

In the study area there is a sub‐divisional hospital at Talcher to cater to the health care need of the people. There are also Ayurvedic & Homeopathic dispensaries. . Also there is MCL run Nehru Satabdi hospital which is planned to be upgraded to a super specialty hospital. The study revealed an unhealthy life style of the people living in the region on account of addictions. They are addicted to smoking (31%), chewing beetle nuts and tobacco (62.54%), drinking alcohol (5.95%), and others using a local made tobacco based product (popularly known as GUDAKHU) (7.9%).

Water borne diseases are common ailment in the region (32.88%). Air borne, heart‐related and eye diseases are also prevalent among the population. A large section of population (53.15%) suffers from malaria, tuberculosis, scabies, leprosy, acute respiratory infection, etc.

2.6 EDUCATION FACILITY

The study indicated that the education level in the study area is low. Among the total literates, only 9% have qualifications above class X, whereas overwhelming 70% respondents have qualifications below class V. The remaining 21% have qualifications between class V and X. Therefore, it is necessary to take measures for improving the educational facilities and motivate the people.

2.7 LAND USE PATTERN

The northern and southern parts of the study area are hilly and the rest of the area is having a number of valleys. Almost all the hilly terrains (i.e., about 35%) of the study area are having forest cover. The remaining 65% of the study area is plain dominated by agricultural land (with frequent fallows) and other land‐uses. Barren / waste lands with gullies (about 14% of the study area) exist throughout the study area. The terrain is undulating and accommodates a large number of human settlements and fertile lands as outlined earlier. The overall land use situation is as given below.

Sl No Type of Use Land Use (%)
1 Mining area 0.61
2 Human Settlements 3.81
3 Forest land including plantation 36.29
4 Agriculture land 42.31
5 Barren land/ waste land 14.13
6 Water bodies 2.85

2.8 WATER RESOURCES

The area under study has all the three types of geological formations, i.e., sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous rocks. The coal and other deposits are available only in the sedimentary formations. The area has both surfaced and underground sources of water.

The Angul‐Talcher‐Meramundali area falls in the “Brahmani River Basin”, which is an inter‐ state river basin. It is spread across the states of Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Orissa. The Central Water Commission (CWC) has estimated the annual renewable water resources of the basin as 21,920 million cubic meters. This includes surface and ground water resources. The annual renewable groundwater recharge has been assessed as 5,171 million cubic meters. Out of this, a recharge of 4,395 million cubic meters is considered utilizable for irrigation.

The area is fast emerging as an important source of coal, aluminum and thermal power in the country. About 711 km2 area forms the core industrial zone. Water of Brahmani river and its tributaries cater to the industrial/domestic need of this fast growing complex. The major part of the area forms the plains of river Brahmani and its tributaries like Nandira Jhor, Singada Jhor and Tikra River. Raw water to the extent of about 86 million cubic meters/annum is drawn from the river for industry/ mining activity, apart from other surface and ground withdrawals (36 million cubic meters/annum) .

2.9 NGOS WORKING IN STUDY AREA

A number of non‐governmnetal organizations are working in the study area with focus on environmental awareness, rehabilitation from vices and additions, health, immunization etc. These can be involved in the development activity of the company. Few of the NGOs are listed in below table.

2.10 PROBABLE FUTURE SCENARIO AND SUGGESTED STRATEGY

The details of existing activities in the study area and projected level of industrialization outlined earlier indicate that the resources available in the area will be exploited in near future. Since, coal is the major resource establishment of coal based industries, i.e., thermal power plants, steel plants, etc. is envisaged. The addition of these activities will stress all the components of prevailing environment. The anticipated impacts on the societal parameters are given below.

♦ There will be a marked increase in the total population of the area.
♦ The overall literacy of the area will increase with the establishment of the industries as well as due to implementation of Central and State governments social upliftment programs.
♦ The surrounding areas of Angul‐Talcher‐Meramundali region has either dense forest lands or falls under the Mahanadi delta which is more suited for agriculture. The ensuing industrialization in the study area will lead to wide‐ scale mobility from rural to urban centres – thereby further stressing the environmental components, if appropriate planning with respect to development of infrastructure and civic facilities is not taken up urgently.
♦ With the implementation of projected industrialization some urban agglomerates will emerge around Angul, Kanhia, Talcher, Banarpal, Odapada blocks, etc. Hence, it is necessary to launch an effective regional planning with respect to spatial strategy, economy, housing and transportation around the development sites in the areas.
♦ In the future scenario, as more industries will be set up in the region, migration of population from rural to urban areas/centers will take place. In order to maintain a balance between rural and urban settlements and population suitable measures shall be needed in the overall development planning.
♦ In order to plan for future societal development of the study area with the addition of the planned coal based and associated industries the mining and other industries will be required to plan and implement all the measures required for the fulfillment of their ‘Corporate Social Responsibility’ with a view to meeting the emotional, mental and physical needs of the society as well as an improvement in the quality‐of‐life commensurate with the level of economic activities.

The following aspects need due attention.

9 Control of population development
9 Creating awareness among the society about the advantages and impacts of mining
9 and associated coal based activities
9 Development of adequate infrastructure (roads, transport, communication, etc.)
9 Development of educational and medical facilities
9 Development of R&R packages and rehabilitation action plans
9 Development of overall community development plans
9 Optimization of impacts on the natural and manmade resources
9 Development of strategy for proper closure of the mines
9 Conservation and development of the manmade and natural resources other than minerals
9 Preservation of the entity of the areas in terms of social, religious,
archeological and cultural significances

The corporate sector, i.e., mining and other companies responsible for the industrial development will be required to look into the following measures so as to be able to fulfill their Corporate Social Responsibility.

( Agricultural development
( Forest management
( Overall land use management ( Water resource management ( Population control
( Health, education and well being of the people
( Promotion of agro‐based cottage industries
( Converting impacts into resources

A list of villages coming under the 10 kms radius of study area along with socio‐
demographic features is presented as Annexure‐2.

3. LAND REQUIREMENT AND IMPACTS OF THE PROJECT

3.1 INTRODUCTION

The proposed project involves land acquisition of private land from 5 affected villages namely Jagannathour, Tentulei, Ghantapada, Sanascotland and Badascotland. The land acquisition and consequent displacement may have potential impacts on the social, economic, cultural and environmental attributes of the affected population with specific impacts on their productive assets, sources of income, community structure, social relations, cultural identity, traditional authority and also their potential for mutual help. The present chapter deals with the assessment of land acquisition and their impacts on Project Affected Population and socio‐economic profile of the affected families.

3.2 LAND ACQUISITION AND IMPACTS

3.2.1 Loss of Land

A total of 793.89 acres of land is required to create the necessary facilities and infrastructure and other activities under proposed project. Of the total land required about
763.88 acres is private and 30.01 acres is Government land. The details of total land under
each village under both private land and government land and land requirements for the project is presented in Table 3.1.

5. COMMUNITY CONSULTATIONS, NEEDS ASSESSMENT
AND DEVELOPMENT PRIORITIES

5.1 CONSULTATION AND NEED ASSESSMENT

Extensive consultations were held with the local communities and other stakeholders in an effort to identify community needs and priorities for designing and implementing CSR initiatives. The participatory stakeholder consultative processes involved tools such as village level open meetings, focus group discussions (FGDs), key informant interviews (KIIs) and transect walks and visits to personally ascertain the status of infrastructure and other facilities that are available in each of the villages in the project area.

Survey was also conducted in the affected area to find out the social community level infrastructure. Assistance of local people and community key person was taken for the purpose. Accordingly, different infrastructure like school, hospitals, banks, post office, aganwadi, panchayat godown building, canal, transportation (roads, bus stand etc.) market etc. were identified. The following sections provide profiles of the villages and the key community development priorities that have been identified through a consultative process.

It consists of 11 Hamlets such as Bazar sahi, Keuta sahi, Brahmin sahi, Gopal sahi, Paramguru sahi, Canal sahi, Tulasi chura sahi, Badadanda sahi, Conveyer sahi, Abhimanupur sahi and Scatlandpur sahi. It is a multi‐caste village where people live in harmony with each other.

5.2.1 History

About 200 years ago, the area was covered with dense forest and wild animals. Jaga & Baga two brothers were the cowherd, while grazing their cattle, due to heavy storm the two brothers died and found floating in the nearby creek. The dead body of Jaga was found at a place where the villagers recognized and built a Pidha (Worship Place). Then the place named as Jagannathpur. The dead body of Baga found near Tentulei Village, the villagers built a Pidha, named as Bagadhar Pidha.

In the year 1852, Late Kanhu Charan Paramguru came from Purunagarh to Angul. He was the holy priest of king somanath Singh Jagdev. The kings of Talcher Kishore Chandra Harichandan donate land as Jagiri. Then the Biswal families settled at village Jaganathpur. Late Banamali Paramguru and Dhara families were the first inhabitant of Jagannathpur. By caste Gopal families from Budhapanka, Kukudola & Talcher Town came to Jagannathpur and settled down in the village. Then Nahak families from Kuspanga (Dhenkanal) arrived at Jagannathpur in search of Job. They become the villagers of Jagannathpur. In this way before 200 years the village developed.

5.5 SUMMARY OF CONSULTATIONS

• The villages are situated near to the proposed plant site within a radius of 1‐3 kms.

• The villages are well connected by road with the district headquarters i.e Angul.

• The poor people belong to not only SC&ST communities but also from general and other backward caste and their houses are situated near to the proposed plant location. However, majority are general caste people.

• The housing pattern of all villages reflects mixture of kachha, pucca and tile roofed houses. Indira Awas Villages are also seen in some of the affected villages.

• Within the village, the road connectivity includes concrete road and kachha road connecting to different hamlets. Kachha road that are mainly muddy road inside the village has been a problem for some of the villagers during the rainy season.

• There are mango and other variety of trees surrounding the village.

• Most of the villages are electrified and have easy access to most of the facility centers.

• The main sources of water to the village are ponds, tube wells and drinking water supplied by the MCL.

• Temple, primary school, post office and school etc are available in the village.

• All the affected villages are having the same type of soil that is mix of clay and sandy soil. The lands are mostly medium lands and un‐irrigated. Large patches of land are agricultural land which is rain fed. However, there is no forest coverage around the villages.

• Almost each and every household is having a kitchen garden in which they grow vegetables for their own consumption. Main vegetables are drumstick, pumpkin, brinjal, tamato, bean, cucumber, papaya, banana etc. Non‐farm activity is very negligible. The common property resources in the villages include temple, ponds, club house, school building, Post office, health clinic, Bank etc. All the villages have good road and transport connectivity to the nearby towns and other facility centres.

• Most of the households primarily depend on paddy crop which is the Kharif crop and cultivation of pulses. People in the concerned villages work in their own agricultural land besides working as agricultural labour in other’s field. While the agriculture season particularly for paddy starts from July till January, kitchen gardening continues through out the year. Cultivation of vegetables like tamato, bean, cucumber, brinjal, lady finger, Cauliflower, although in low scale, is mostly done in winter. Brinjal, lady finger, pumpkin, kukumber, chilli are done in rainy season as backyard kitchen garden. In view of the growing pollution that has adversely

affected the agricultural activities in the area, new methods of agriculture practices and irrigation systems may be introduced to provide reasonable income to the poor affected households.

• Since the villages are surrounded by the industrial houses and coal mines, most of the habitants are usually depending on industries/mines for their livelihood. Moreover few of the villagers have petty shops in and outside the village. There are very few villagers who are also involved in transport or contract work business. Villagers serving with government departments are also there in the village. Agriculture provides only seasonal employment and there is scarcity of agriculture labour during the season since industries/mines works pays more than the agriculture wages.

• The major occupations found among the man and women in the affected villages are agriculture, service in Government departments, farm and non‐farm labour etc. While the farm activities are mostly available during May to January providing employment to people owning agriculture as occupation and the farm labour, daily based works are also available for the allied agricultural activities. Petty business occupations and other non‐farm based business activities continue through out the year and provide employment to some people in the villages.

Sub: Guidelines for utilization of funds for periphery development.

Ref: Letter No. R&REH - 49104133167 dated 21.08.2004

Madaml Sir,

Project authorities of vanous industrial and other projects provide funds for periphery development. These funds are utilized for the projects approved by the Rehabilitation and Periphery Development Advisory Committees (RPDAC's). Instructions have been issued from time to time in the past regarding the manner of utilization of such funds.
2. The matter of prescribing comprehensive guidelines

regarding the periphery area in which such activities could be taken up, the works/sectors which should be funded from the periphery development and the manner in which such projects should be executed was under consideration of Government for some time. After careful consideration, Government have been pleased to issue the following guidelines in this behalf.

",

3. (i)

-2-

Periphery Area will not extend beyond the concerned. District(s) in which the Project is located. Works will be taken up in the villages and GPs concerned in which the Project is located followed by Block and Revenue District. However, villages in which displaced families of the project are resettled shall also be included in the periphery area even if they are not situated within the concerned district(s). The RPDAC will specify the periphery area for each project as per these guidelines in which activities may be taken up from the periphery
development fund.

(ii) Allocation of periphery development fund of a Project will be according to the following ratio:
Not less than 70% of the periphery development fund will be allocated for periphery development activities in the villages and concerned GP in which the Project is situated,
Not more than 200/& of the periphery development

fund will be allocated for periphery development activities in the rest of the areas of the concerned
Block,
Not more than 100/0 of the periphery development fund will be allocated for periphery development activities in the rest of the areas of the concerned District.

However, RPDAC will have discretion to deviate from the above ratio In special circumstances for reasons to be recorded by RPDAC.

- 3-

(iii) Works from out of periphery development funds should normally be taken up only in the periphery area. However, infrastructure works may be taken up in institutions located outside the periphery are which cater to or are fed by the primary institutions situated in the periphery area or will directly benefit the villagers in peripheral area. The examples of such works could be infrastructure in the PHC!CHC! other hospitals, High Schools! Colleges! higher level educational institutions etc serving the population of the periphery villages etc.
4. Approved Works: Works in the following sectors may be

taken up from out of the periphery development fund:

(i) Education: Construction of building, provision of infrastructure like drinking water, toilets, compound wall, furniture, equipment, playground etc for Primary, Upper Primary and higher level institutions
(ii) Drinking water: Piped water supply scheme may be preferred instead of tube wells.
(iii) Health: Construction of building, provision of infrastructure like water supply, toilets, equipment, furniture etc for dispensaries, Public Health Centre etc.
(iv) Irrigation: Creation of lift or minor irrigation sources,

excavation of tanks.

(v) Agricultural extension work including horticulture, pisciculture and animal husbandry.
(vi) Pre-school education and care: Building and

-4-

infrastructure of Anganwadi centres, Creche etc. (vii) Electrification: Provision of transformer, street
lighting, electrification of public places and school

buildings etc.

(viii) Vocational Education : Infrastructure for Industrial Training Institute/Centre, other vocation training centres.
(ix) Sanitation and Sewerage

(x) Communication - provision of roads.

(xi) Environmental Protection : Plantation of trees, afforestation in wasteland, development of Gochar land
(xii) Livelihood Support: Construction of workshed/sale centres for production centres of SHG's, provision of machine/equipment for such activities
(xiii) Individual Beneficiary oriented activities: Distribution of corrective aids and appliances to physically challenged persons, distribution of cycles to
school/college going girls etc.

5. (i)

The objective of the projects should be to improve the physical quality of life of the residents of the peripheral area. Activities undertaken from these funds should bring about a perceptible and visible
improvement in the periphery area.

(ii) It is duty of the industrial/development project concerned to provide all amenities to the resettlement colonies of the project and any expenditure on such works undertaken for such

.. '

- 5-

colonies should be an integral part of the R&R budget of the project authorities. Such works in resettlement colonies should normally be not treated as periphery development activities except in exceptional cases where the said work will
substantially contribute to overall development of

6. the entire periphery area and not just the colony,

Maintenance of Assets:
(i) While approving the work under the P,0, F'I there
should be a clear decision on the agency which will be
responsible for maintenance and protection of the
asset. For this purpose, the concerned companies/
Industries will be given two options. If the work will be
executed by the project authorities, they should maintain and protect the assets created, If the work is executed by Government agency, that agency will maintain and protect the assets created and in that case funds required for capital maintenance of the assets for an appropriate period will be earmarked by RPDAC for availability at the time of requirement while approving the execution of the Projects.

(ii) The agency concerned may then oversee the proper imptementation and protection of the asset from the commencement of the work.
(iii) The projects under Periphery Development Fund should be additionality for the peripheral area and should not result in less than the proportional or normative provision from out of government

-6-

schemes to the periphery areas. Thus projects for which Government funding is available or expected to be available within a reasonably short time should normally not be funded from the periphery development fund.
7. Execution of work : Execution of work may be entrusted

preferably to an agency which may also maintain the asset. Wherever there are prescribed quality norms of engineering or other government departments (like tube well, road etc), such quality norms should be adhered to. There may be no objection to project authorities executing the projects through their own contractors or internal wings, if they have capability for execution/supervision of such projects. They should, however , maintain the assets for a minimum period of ten years. There should be effective supervision of the quality of execution of work by technical experts and monitoring by the RPDAC.
These instructions may be meticulously observed

by all concerned. All project authorities should be encouraged to voluntarily contribute to periphery development fund and to take up appropriate activities for the development of periphery
areas.

Yours faithfully,
