way and resume their activities as usual without obstacle or constraint, as well as those related to the permanent loss of private land, no other additional risks (such as loss or restriction of access to public services, loss of access to schooling for school-age children, problems related to transport and mobility, securing goods that cannot be moved) are identified. It goes without saying that this temporary economic and/or physical displacement for 139 PAPs, as well as the definitive restriction of access to land for 5 formal owners, does not constitute a source of social precariousness that may require additional measures to restore livelihoods or support households. In addition, the client and the project manager will be reassured of the complete cleaning of the site before the return of the PAPs. A systematic count of PAPs per household was carried out during the socio- economic surveys, and it appears that the total population affected is 443 people, including dependents The distribution of households according to the sites is worded as follows:

- - 39 PAPs are located on Kasavubu Avenue, in Bandalungwa (i.e., 27.1%);
- - 94 PAP on Kasavubu Avenue in Kintambo commune (i.e., 65.3%); and
- - 11 PAP on the Nguma-Mont Fleury axis, in the commune of Ngaliema, (i.e., 7.6%).

######### Eligibility

Three categories of people are eligible for compensation. It is:

- - of lands to be encroached upon from the project; - of lands to be encroached upon from the project;
- - of the commercial structures to be temporarily moved along the roads, without - of the commercial structures to be temporarily moved along the roads, without necessarily having formal rights or titles likely to be recognized on the lands they occupy or exploit;
- - of residential houses to be temporarily destroyed following the work. - of residential houses to be temporarily destroyed following the work.

The implementation of the RAP in the various selected project sites will result in the permanent relocation of a right-of-way easement for the laying of the pipeline through the spacious private parcels, without leading to the impoverishment of the owners or the destruction of their sustainable housing infrastructure. Only two precarious housing infrastructures (made of sheet metal) will be destroyed before being rebuilt at the end of the work, forcing the occupants (squatters) to move temporarily, after receiving resettlement assistance (in cash), for a temporary relocation of their choice, calculated according to the price of the rent of a modern house of average standing (consisting of 2 bedrooms, living room kitchen, and bathroom) in the Project area. For PAPs whose activities will require temporary displacement, they will be able to return to their places of work, and resume their normal activities, after a period of 30 days, without any other special formalities to be. However, as soon as the implementation of the RAPbegins, the PAPs will be asked to take the necessary steps to release the right-of-way at least one month before the start of the work. However, the release of the rights of way by the PAPs will only take place after the actual payment of compensation. Also, two information and awareness sessions will be organized, respectively before the release of the right- of-way and before its reoccupation by the PAPs to allow the latter to be informed about the progress of the work, their rights and duties as well as the period of reoccupation of the rights-of-way and thus make them actively participate in the resettlement operation. PAPs will receive compensation for losses incurred in accordance with ESS No. 5. A socio-economic survey will be conducted after the RAP is implemented to determine the level of household restoration, and if necessary, a livelihood restoration plan will be prepared by the project.
