Using International and national legal framework, the first step is Preliminary stakeholder engagement and sensitization followed by feasibility studies. The survey team then establishes the Right of Way which is then pegged accompanied by further sensitization and engagement. The survey and valuation team then assess the land after which draft reports are prepared and submitted to the chief government valuer (CGV). Any modifications are made basing on comments from CGV and the report is sent back to CGV for approval. After approval the report strip maps are then displayed at the villages and sub-counties for Project Affected Persons (PAPs) to confirm and ascertain their properties and items on the land. After display, compensation values are disclosed and upon acceptance, PAPs are then paid. PAPs are then given vacation notices which stipulates that they must vacate the land within 90 days. The project then takes possession of the land.
