When are squatters and encroachers eligible for compensation for any structures, crops or land improvements that they will lose?
Squatters and encroachers are eligible for compensation and other assistance for loss of any structures, crops, land improvements, or income, if they settled in the project site before the entitlements cut-off date. The project could pay an equivalent amount of rehabilitation assistance if there are problems in paying compensation to those without legal title. Rehabilitation assistance would include replacement housing and replacement land, with title, for squatters and encroachers who depend on agricultural production for their livelihood. For those who do not depend on agriculture, alternative income restoration options would be provided in close consultation with the squatters themselves.
