Table 6-15: Potential socio-economic receptors ReceptorDescriptionProject workforceThe Construction workforce will either be based on site in a workers camp or within hotel or guest house accommodation in the nearby AoI. Operational workforce will likely be housed within the AoI as well. Associated risks of accident and ill health due to living or working conditions are relevant for this receptor, as well as their potential interaction with nearby communities.Local economically active populationProject related employment and training needs may interact with the local economically active population. This receptor may encompass people living within the AoI.General local businesses, services providers and equipment suppliersProject related procurement needs during the construction and operation phases may interact with local businesses, services providers and equipment suppliers (e.g. limited use of the local shops, procurement of equipment and materials supplies).CommunitiesSettlements in the AoI: Core AoI (Farms A and B), Direct AoI (Uzumzor and Southern Settlement), and Indirect AoI (Urumzor, Khazara and the Eastern Settlements), along M37.Road usersExisting and future road users on M37, the road from the M37 to Khazara and the dirt roads within the Project area, including road capacity which may be subject to changes in traffic / vehicle load. As mentioned above, due to a lack of accurate traffic flow data, a qualitative approach from site visit observations was taken to account for estimated traffic changes.Vulnerable groupsGroups with limited coping / adaptation capacities to external changes. Particular consideration is given to children, women and the elderly in the AoI. No indigenous peoples have been identified in the AoI but herders from Farms A and B may be considered as vulnerable due to their proximity to the site and limited control over their land leases if they are sub-leasing from land owners, as is the case with Farm B.Source: AECOM 2020
