    1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 BACKGROUND

    1. The FIP-1 project is part of Indonesia's forestry investment plan that will complement the FIP project managed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB), World Bank (WB) and the International Finance Corporation (IFC) in addressing the causes of deforestation and forest degradation. The project consists of several sub-projects both land-based activities and non-land based activities that invest in community-based REDD+ activities (e.g. community-based land use planning, community-based forest monitoring and fire-caring communities, community-based forest regeneration, and community-based ecotourism) in four forest management units (KPH) in two districts (Kapuas Hulu and Sintang) in the province of West Kalimantan.

    2. West Kalimantan, which is a key province in the Heart of Borneo Initiative, has a large forests area and is the fifth largest provincial contributor to Indonesia’s carbon emissions. The four key drivers of deforestation and forest degradation in the province are: (i) commercial logging; (ii) forest conversion to agriculture (primarily to palm oil); (iii) mining (primarily coal and gold); and (iv) uncontrolled fires. ADB’s contribution, as well as the contribution of other institutions (e.g., GIZ and JICA) will support the government to implement the provincial REDD+ strategy, thus helping West Kalimantan to achieve the 2020 GHG reduction target of 266.11 million tons of carbon dioxide equivalent (tCO2e) from the forestry and peat sectors.

    3. In addition to reducing GHG emissions, which are the main objectives of the FIP-1 program, there are also policies to increase carbon stocks through land rehabilitation programs, provide benefits to the livelihoods of communities around the forest through agroforestry activities, strengthen land management rights for Indigenous Peoples (MHA) on their customary lands, improve conservation and biodiversity, facilitate institutional strengthening, and provide environmental services. Institutional strengthening is more about strengthening the capacity of FMUs/KPHs, districts and province government, and providing support to harmonize policies at the regional and central levels in terms of increasing carbon stocks by building non-monetary incentives and implementing monitoring, environmental safeguards, and fair benefit sharing arrangements and gender responsiveness.

    4. The process of implementing community-based forest emission reduction and forest investment policies is carried out through a series of land-based and non-land based sub-projects in 17 villages (both Kapuas Hulu and Sintang Districts). These activities require an environmental and social safeguard that is in line with and in accordance with national regulations and ADB Safeguard Policy Statement (2009) as a donor (Compliance). The environmental mitigation and monitoring process is very important to minimize the potential impacts that are expected to occur during the project implementation phase.

    1.2 OBJECTIVE AND SCOPE OF THE MONITORING REPORT

    5. The main objective of this Semi-Annual Environmental Monitoring Report (SAEMR) is to briefly present the progress of the FIP-1 program from January until June 2018. Further, this report will explain the range of potential impacts that will arise during the achievement of each sub-project and mitigation actions that can be taken to minimize these potential impacts.

    2.0 KEY-PROJECT ACTIVITIES AND PROGRESS 2.1 PROJECT PROFILE

    6. The objective of the FIP-1 program is to improve the capacity and livelihoods of communities around forest areas in 17 villages of the Kapuas Hulu and Sintang Districts. It is expected to provide benefits to the community, in terms of both environmental and livelihood improvements. The results of the FIP-1 project are achieved in several outputs, namely:

    ▪ Output-1, REDD+ demonstrations that focus on the community and gender responsiveness in Kapuas Hulu and Sintang districts are implemented.

    ▪ Output-2, Implementation of REDD+ strategies in West Kalimantan Province.

    ▪ Output-3, Harmonization of Fiscal Policy on REDD+ between subnational and national levels.

    7. Based on the Annual Work Plan (AWP) for 2018, which was developed by the Executing Agency i.e. Directorate General of Social Forestry and Environmental Partnerships (Direktur Jenderal Perhutanan Sosial dan Kemitraan Lingkungan) in February 2018, some of the proposed sub-project activities that will be conducted in 2018 – 2021 are provided in Table 1.

    3.0 ENVIRONMENTAL ASSESSMENT PROCESS 3.1 SCREENING AND CATEGORIZATION PROCESS

    11. In FIP-1 program, the environmental screening and categorization process was carried out by following Government of Indonesia regulations and ADB’s Safeguard Policies (SPS 2009) requirement. All subproject activities should screen out in order to find the influence magnitude by defining the most environmentally sensitive components, including direct, indirect, cumulative and induced impacts in the scope of the subproject (EARF, 2016). Therefore, each proposed subproject in FIP-1 program for S1/2018 has examined related to the type, location, scale and sensitivity and the magnitude of the potential environmental impacts.

    12. The categorization for subproject should be included into ADB project categories and National categories, which explained in Table 3.

    Table 3. Comparison between ADB and the Government’s Project Categories

    ADB Project Categories AMDAL Project Policies

    ▪ Category A: Projects with potential for significant adverse environmental impacts, requiring an EIA.

    AMDAL: Projects with potential for substantial impacts on the environment require AMDAL (including ToR, ANDAL, and RKL/RPL).

    ▪ Category B: Projects judged to have some adverse environmental impacts, but of lesser degree and/or significance than category A projects. Category B projects require IEE.

    UKL-UPL: Projects are not required to have AMDAL but are obliged to have an UKL/UPL.

    SPPLH: Projects that do not require AMDAL or UKL/UPL are obliged to submit a Statement of Management and Environmental Monitoring Ability or SPPL.

    ▪ Category C: Projects unlikely to have adverse environmental impacts.

    SPPLH: Projects that do not require AMDAL or UKL/UPL are obliged to submit a Statement of Management and Environmental Monitoring Ability or SPPL.

    3.2 ADB ENVIRONMENTAL SAFEGUARD POLICY

    14. ADB’s Safeguard Policy Statement (2009) consists of three operational policies on the environment, indigenous peoples, and involuntary resettlement. The safeguard policies require that: (i) impacts are identified and assessed early in the project cycle; (ii) plans to avoid, minimize, mitigate, or compensate for the potential adverse impacts are developed and implemented; and (iii) affected people are informed and consulted during project preparation and implementation.

    3.3 APPLICABLE ENVIRONMENTAL LAWS AND REGULATIONS IN INDONESIA

    15. Indonesia’s relevant environmental laws and regulations focusing on managing the environmental impacts of development projects include:

    ▪ Law No. 32/2009 concerning Environmental Protection and Management;

    ▪ Ministry of Environmental Regulation No. 5/2012 on Activities Requiring AMDAL Study;

    ▪ Ministry of Environmental Regulation No. 16/2012 on Guidance to prepare Environmental Documents;

    ▪ Ministry of Environmental Regulation No. 17/2012 concerning Public Participation and Information Disclosure in AMDAL Process; and

    ▪ Government Regulation No. 27/2012 on Environmental Permit.

    16. Other pertinent legislation includes: Law No. 2/2012 on Land Acquisition for Development in the Public Interest provides the framework for land acquisition, resettlement, and compensation in Indonesia. Presidential Regulation No. 71/2012 (Implementation of Land Acquisition for Development in the Public Interest) implements Law No. 2/2012. It is confirmed that the FIP-1 project will not need such a land acquisition process as all activities will be implemented within Indonesian Government lands.

    17. Three regulations issued by the Ministry of Forestry support carbon sequestration and REDD+ activities: (1) Minister of Forestry Regulation No. P.36/Menhut-II/2009 regarding License Procedures for Carbon Sequestration and / or Carbon Storage Business in Forest Production and Protection Forests; (2) Minister of Forestry Regulation No. P.68/Menhut-II/2008 regarding Implementation of Demonstration Activities for Reducing Carbon Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation; and (3) Minister of Forestry Regulation No.

    9.0 CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS 27. Conclusions. Key conclusions drawn from the environmental safeguards monitoring report of Semester 1/2018 are as follows:

    ▪ No physical activities on the ground have been conducted as part of the FIP-1 due to procurement process by IA/UPT is always delayed and the allocation of time for implementing activities changes, therefore corresponding environmental mitigation and monitoring have not been conducted.

    ▪ Public consultations regarding FIP-1 program has been conducted on Day-month-year at five targeted villages in Sintang District. The community members attending these public consultations agreed to participate in the FIP-1 programs (including women), for land base or non-land base activities.

    ▪ Screening and categorization has been carried out for Agroforestry (40 ha) and Rubber Plantation (20 ha) at Radin Jaya Village, in Sintang District as per the requirements of Government Regulation No. 27/2012 and Ministry of Environment Regulation No. 5/2012 and ADB checklists.

    ▪ During the reporting period, the capacity development for FMUs, has not implemented due to non-allocation budget by BPHP as IA to conducted that activities.

    ▪ GRM scheme and complaint form has created by PISU; however, has not implemented yet during reporting period. PISU will consult the draft with FMUs and IA, and implement it on S2/2018.

    28. Recommendations. Based on the conclusions presented above, the following actions are recommended:

    ▪ PISU should work together with IA, such as BPHP, BPSKL, and BBTNBKDS for sharing and discuss regarding AWP 2018, and 2019.

    ▪ All EA and IA should maximize the role of FMUs as “institution in charge/locus owner” for supervise and monitor each sub-project, and discuss with PISU regarding Environmental Safeguard aspects.

    ▪ There must fieldwork activity conducted in order to complete checklist for screening or even for categorize the subproject. However, the screening and categorization of should involve FMU’s, and in order to obtained the environmental permit should obtained from BLHD whether SPPL or UKL/UPL.
