Decision on Categorization 

While using the checklist following methods can be adopted for the decision making: 

In the case of Indigenous People (IP) 

If the average marks obtained from “Indigenous People Impact Categorization Form” is: 

• > 105, the sub- project is categorized as A 

• 70-105, the sub- project is categorized as B 

• < 70, the sub- project is categorized as C 

Note: This is the categorization proposed by Consultant. MoLD may alter the categorization 

range as per nature of sub-project, categories/types of indigenous people affected etc. 

Category of 

Sub-Project 

A 

B 

C 

Categorization of IP Impact 

Determination of the type of Environmental Assessment 

Needed 

Sub-projects expected to have significant impacts that require 

an Indigenous People (IP) Development Program 

Sub-projects expected to have limited impacts that require 

specific action for IP in resettlement plans and/or social action 

plans 

Sub-projects not expected to have impacts on IPs and, 

therefore, do not require special provision for IPs 

In the case of Involuntary Resettlement (IR) 

The Involuntary Resettlement categorization of subprojects shall be as follows: 

a. Category A: Significant – Such a sub-project shall comprise of those in which 200 or 

more people will experience major impacts, which are defined as (i) being physically 

displaced from housing, or (ii) losing 10% or more of their productive assets (income 

generating). Such sub-projects will require preparation of a Full Resettlement Plan (RP). 

b. Category B: Not significant – such sub-projects shall include those in which less than 

200 persons experience impacts. Such sub-projects require preparation of a Short 

Resettlement Plan. 

c. Category C: No Impact – Category C sub-projects shall include those in which no 

involuntary resettlement effects are foreseen thereby requiring no resettlement action. 

In the case of Physical, Biological and Socio-Economic Issues 

In such cases, if the marks obtained in each of questions is: 

• > 105, the issue is categorized having significant impact 

• 70-105, the issue is categorized having semi-significant impact 

• < 70, the issue is categorized having non-significant impact 

If any one of the issue is found to be significant impact category, then each of the issues 

having such impact will be discussed individually, between the local people government 

authorities, politicians and concerned stakeholders to come into common consensus so as to 

minimize the impact. If any of such significant impact is unavoidable then prospects subproject 

implementation can be decided by common agreement put together from the 

discussion and conclusion can be made whether the sub-project is feasible or not. As per 

the conclusion obtained, the sub-project will proceed. 

Note: This is the categorization proposed by Consultant. MoLD may alter the categorization 

range as per nature of sub-project, categories/types.

Screening Questions for Resettlement Categorization 

Probable Involuntary Resettlement Effects Yes No Not 

Known 

Will the sub-project include any physical construction work? 

Does the sub-project include upgrading or rehabilitation of existing physical 

facilities? 

Are any sub-project effects likely lead to loss of housing, other assets, resource 

use, or incomes/livelihoods? 

Is land acquisition likely to be necessary? 

Is the site for land acquisition known?

within the Right of Way? 

Will there be loss of housing? 

Will there be loss of agricultural plots? 

Will there be losses of crops, trees, and fixed assets? 

Will there be loss of businesses or enterprises? 

Will there be loss of incomes and livelihoods? 

Will people lose access to facilities, services, or natural resources? 

Will any social or economic activities be affected by land use related changes? 

If involuntary resettlement impacts are expected: 

• Are local laws and regulations compatible with ADB’s Involuntary Resettlement 

policy? 

• Will coordination between government agencies be required to deal with land 

acquisition? 

• Are there sufficient skilled staff in the Implementing Agency for resettlement 

planning and implementation?
