2012 - AMBATOVY SUSTAINABILITY REPORT
Compensation
Careful, long-term measures have been taken to ensure that communities and individuals receive proper compensation
for income reduction or assets affected as a result of our operations. Ambatovy aims to mitigate adverse social and
economic impacts by providing compensation for loss and the restoration of the livelihoods and standards of living of
impacted persons. In 2012, payments in cash and in kind continued for people affected by construction activities.
During the year, Ambatovy distributed approximately $400,000 in cash and 626 tonnes of paddy (unmilled rice).
In addition, the rehabilitation of rice paddies affected by sediment from up-slope construction activities continued and
158 ha were restored, directly benefitting 207 people.
