43. The proposed subproject (package Andhra Pradesh Transmission Corporation Ltd (APTransco) 01) involves construction of three substations, one of 132 kilovolt (kV) capacity and two of 220 kV capacity, and related laying of transmission lines of length 24 kilometer (km) and underground cable of 26 km length.

44. For future load requirements of the industries within the clusters identified in Vizag node, APTransco and Andhra Pradesh Industrial Infrastructure Corporation (APIIC) have identified the need to create and/or upgrade substations at three locations within the node, for which 7.6 ha of government land is identified. The capacity proposed are 132 kV and 220 kV sub-stations and associated transmission lines for meeting the load requirements in the specified clusters coming up with in/vicinity of VCIC. This involves setting up new sub stations



and/or strengthening existing substations and laying /strengthening transmission lines and cables primarily at 220 kV and 132 kV voltage level and then augmenting downstream distribution network as necessary. The proposed overhead transmission towers leading to Nakkapalle SS are estimated to require an additional 1.23 ha land, of which the alignment will be finalized by the turnkey contractor in consultation with APTransco and other stakeholders, hence ownership is not yet known. The intervention will benefit the public and industries in: (i) improved voltage profiles of the regions; (ii) additional load growth of about 1,350 Megawatt (MW), met by constructing proposed substations; (iii) reduction of system losses of about 100 MW due to erection of proposed substations; (iv) industry and population gets reliable power supply; and (v) quality and quantity of power ensured over wide geographical area.

45. The subproject is likely to require to use private land for erection of transmission towers (1.23 ha),and is also likely to cause damage to crops during erection of transmission towers and lines. Temporary disruption to access during underground cable laying work, resulting in potential temporary loss of income to an estimated 48 shop owners/vendors and 16 employees, for a maximum period of 10 days each during implementation, as well as temporary access disturbances to residents living along and/or having land along the corridor of transmission line, is assessed.

H. Follow up Actions, Recommendation and Disclosure

83. Challenges for Implementation of RP: Due to unavailability of implementing agency –NGO, most of R&R activities are awaited which could be done after mobilization of NGO.

84. As per Resettlement Framework (RF) & ToR, PMU has to procure/engage the Resettlement Plan Implementation Agency(RPIA)/NGO for carrying out the updation and implementation of Resettlement plan, it is essential to conduct identification & verification activities of project affected persons based on census & baseline survey of PAPs as per strip chart, topography survey/map & alignment. As per RPF, the 10-subprojects have been grouped into 4-groups and PMU proposes to appoint 4 agencies (RPISA) /NGO or 1 agency/NGO with four separate teams, with 1 agency/NGO or 1 team for each group.

85. Updation of RP:After the payment of compensation to the DPs under various subprojects, respective resettlement plans will be updated accordingly and will be submitted to ADB for approval.

86. Disclosure: The internal monitoring reports named as Social Safeguard Monitoring Report (SSMR) have been disclosed on the ADB website as well as the Program website. Social Monitoring Reports will be prepared semiannually and would be duly uploaded on the websites.

87. Minimize the Impact: During actual execution of civil works in the corridor where DPs are located, it is likely that impacts are minimized and avoided. 88. Contractors will be asked to ensure there is no loss to the access (leaving spaces for access between mounds of soil, providing walkways and metal sheets to maintain access across trenches) are being made to minimize such impacts by using proper work schedule (avoid busy business hours, phased construction schedule, working on one segment at a time on one side of the road) and techniques.

89. DPs will be provided advance information regarding the upcoming construction activities to ensure no or minimum disruption in their livelihood. If, and when required they will be assisted in temporary shift for the continued economic and livelihood activities. For example, the affected DPs will be assisted to shift to the other side of the road, where there is no construction activity. Ensuing there is no income or access loss during subproject construction which is the responsibility of the contractor.

90. Willing and vulnerable DPs/AFs would be given priority in project construction employment.

I. Gender Action Plan (GAP) Monitoring

A. Introduction

1. Gender Equality & Social inclusion (GESI) Action Plan for VCIC Project specifies that how VCIC project will promote gender equality across the multi tranche funding work, in alignment with the ADB SPS, 2009. It elaborates the gender dimensions of the programmatic results across the five goal areas of the Strategic Plan, as well as the steps to strengthen gender across change strategies and institutional systems and processes.

B. Objectives of GESI

2. Objectives of GESI to counter gender discrimination and promote equality between men and women. They also show how a combination of good practices in law and in social and economic policy can improve equitable employment opportunities, remuneration, and treatment for women and men at work.

3. The basic objective is to better employment and economic opportunities for men and women in the program impact area, as well as improved access to health, education, and social infrastructure facilities. o The program encourages and facilitates women’s financial and socioeconomic

empowerment and inclusion in direct program benefits such as: o Program-related employment opportunities during construction and O&M phases. o Gender-responsive design features for roads and industrial subprojects included

walking paths, service lanes, separate toilets for women, telephone helplines, adequate lighting, safety measures such as signage and demarcated road crossings, and well-lit and safe public spaces and industrial clusters.

o Indirect benefits included the promotion of equitable and gender-sensitive participation of women in dialogue during the design and planning of subprojects, decision making, information dissemination, and community consultation.

o GESI because the action plan has potential to ensure the participation of women and socially-excluded groups.

o Adequate resources and an implementation mechanism are provided for effective implementation of the GESI action plan.

C. Challenges

4. Increasing job opportunities and decent work for women are essential for advancing economic and social development, because many women continue to experience gender inequalities at work.

5. To counter gender discrimination and promote equality between men and women shows how a combination of good practices in law and in social and economic policy can improve equitable employment opportunities, remuneration, and treatment for women and men at work.

6. To afford better protection for the basic rights of workers, including their trade union rights; and second, to provide for a greater measure of flexibility for social partners to regulate the employment relationship in a manner that is more conducive to, and enhancing of, productivity and economic growth.

7. The main constraints on women in the labor market are domestic work and care burdens, and women's more limited access to resources, including education, training, government services, credit, and financial services. Women also face pervasive discrimination and lack of social protection in most aspects of their employment and work.

D. Scope of Work & Rationale for Targets set in GESI

8. The following points served as the rationale for preparation of VCICDP’s Draft GESI Action Plan:



o In order to facilitate use of the e-portal for applications for licenses, women and men entrepreneurs are likely to require handholding support.

o Special incentives for women entrepreneurs will be required to encourage entrepreneurship among women.

o Mentoring support is likely to be required by women applicants for setting up new factories/enterprises (Baseline: 8% of applicants comprise women; 0% women applicants have been able to implement their projects)

o Planning for skill training will require prior need and demand assessment of women who are presently employed as well as potential workers.

o Tie-ups with Industry/ business houses and academic institutes will be necessary for proper skill training for the women in manufacturing industries.

o No gender biases should color the type of skill training imparted to women. Safe transport facilities to training venues should be facilitated.

o Women work participation rate can increase substantially if public transport is provided. Large industries already make arrangements for transport.

o Women can also be engaged in the transport sector as unskilled laborer/workers, by public transport operators or companies that provide transport for their workers.

o Assured safe, 24x7 water supply will enable women and girl children to manage their time better and join gainful activities or higher studies.

o While ensuring quality water supply, water charge should be fixed keeping in view affordability of the users, particularly slum dwellers/ LIG families.

o Separate toilets for men and women workers should be provided in facilities designed and constructed under VCICDP, wherever feasible.

o Apart from roads, all industrial estates need well-lit and safe public spaces, to encourage women to join the workforce.

E. Agreed Implementation, Monitoring and Reporting Arrangements on GESI

o The GoAP will implement the GESI action plan with support from the PMSC, nongovernment organizations, and civil society organizations;

o The Social Safeguards and Gender Officer in the PMU with assistance from PMSC social safeguards consultant will ensure implementation, monitoring and reporting; and

o The PIUs (APIIC, APRDC, GVMC, APTransco) each be staffed with a safeguards manager (social and gender) and assisted by the PMSC specialist, will be responsible for making contribution to implement, monitor and report GESI activities assigned to the respective PIUs in accordance with GESI Action Plan Implementation Responsibility Matrix.

F. Awareness Generation on GESI in the reporting period

o A total of 19 public meetings and awareness campaign on GESI were held in the

reporting period. A total of 854 persons participated in these meetings, of which 48% were women. A sample of attendance sheets is provided in this SSMR. Complete details (all signature sheets, consultation photographs and meeting minutes) shall be included in the Quarterly Progress Reports for the concerned period.

o Monitoring of GESI activities using the reporting format provided in the FAM will be presented in the next Quarterly Progress Report.
