English

Subject field(s)
  • Anti-pollution Measures
  • Environmental Economics
CONT

Compensation measures, in the context of facility siting, ... fall into two broad categories: (a) those which are impact-related, that is, they aim to offset unavoidable adverse residual impacts or damages thereby leaving the community no worse off than it was before the facility was sited there; and (b) those which are equity-related, that is, they aim to redress the unfair distribution of costs and benefits by ensuring that the local community derives benefit from the siting decision such that it is better off than it was before the facility was sited there.

CONT

Examples of equity-related compensation measures include local purchasing and hiring policies(sometimes include employee training provisions), tax subsidies(e. g., payment of all or part of the property taxes of local residents, involving either only those most directly affected or the community as a whole), tipping fees(i. e., a tax on the material disposed of at the facility, either on a volume or gross receipt basis, with the funds earmarked for use by the local community), co-use of the facility(e. g., incorporating into the facility a landfill to dispose of municipal waste), bonus services(e. g., the provision of infrastructure such as schools, hospitals or other amenities which would enhance the community's development potential), and bonus facilities(e. g., construction of a research and/or educational centre focussed on some specific aspect of the proposed facility such as the waste itself or the technology required to manage it).

CONT

Soft loans are made by the special lending facility of a multinational development bank(for example, the Asian Development Fund and the African Development Fund) or the International Development Association, an affiliate of the World Bank. Typically, soft loans have extended grace periods in which only interest or service charges are due, longer(up to 50 years) amortization schedules, and lower interest rates than conventional bank loans. Access to the soft loan window is limited to developing countries with low per capita incomes, and developing countries experiencing balance of payment problems.

CONT

Examples of impact-related compensation measures include in-kind compensation(i. e., replacement of what is lost), service subsidies(to support any expansion of services that may be required to offset the effect of increased demand), property tax abatement(to offset any potential increase in property taxes), property value protection(guarantee of payment of fair market value as protection against a real decline in property value due to the construction and operation of the facility), and property buy out(for those residents who are likely to suffer significant levels of unavoidable impacts for an extended period of time). Payments-in-lieu of taxes, which have become a convention in public facility development, are not regarded as a component of impact management.
