This should amount to the replacement cost with no depreciations being applied, as done earlier. Implementation Procedure The implementation procedural steps will be as follows: 1. Initiation: On the decision of the agency/project to acquire land, the proposal is to be submitted to the National Land Commission Secretariat (NLCS) for formal approval.

Notification: Subject to the approval of the NLCS, the Dzongkhag or Thomdey Committee is to notify the landowner of the Government’s intention to acquire land at least 120 days prior to the acquisition of the land. (Ref: Section 156 and 157 of the Land Rules & Regulations of the Kingdom of Bhutan 2007). 3. Replacement: Should the landowner opt for a substitute land, the case shall be dealt with as per the Land Act of Bhutan 2007. Should the landowner opt for monetary compensation, the Dzongkhag / Thomdey Committee will determine the compensation amount as per the compensation rates fixed by the Government. 4. Referencing of Municipal Boundary: For distances from the municipal boundary, the boundary demarcated by the MWHS shall be taken. 5. Valuation: The compensation for land shall also be worked out by the Committee based on the rates while the compensation for the structures shall be based on the estimates prepared by qualified engineers (Dzongkhag Engineers) vetted by the Committee. 6. Taking Possession: Taking possession of the land shall be as stipulated in Section 158 of the Land Act of Bhutan 2007. 7.

Trees Bigger than 1 foot girth FC = (Vtree * Rpr) Where, FC = Forest Compensation; Vtree = Total volume of tree in cft. Rpr = Prevailing price of timber logs as regulated by Natural Resource Pricing Committee in that or nearby locality in cft. The rate of timber should be according to class of timber as approved by the DoF from time to time. Method of Volume Calculation The volume of tree should be calculated using the following formula: Vtree = ð�’ˆð�Ÿ�/ð�Ÿ’Ï€ * height of tree (only merchantable height should be measured in feet) Where, Vtree = Volume of tree in cft. and g = girth of tree in feet or inches (girth should be measured by measuring tape) 2. Trees smaller than 1 foot girth FC = (Cseedling + Pplanting & est + Mmain) Where, FC = Forest Compensation; and Cseedling = Cost of seedling (this should be according to class of timber and calculated at present rates) Pplanting & est = Cost of planting (including establishment cost) based on present rates. Mmain = Cost of maintenance (year 2,3,4,5,6,….and above)
