Affected assets that will be acquired for a project may include the entire asset or a portion of it. Compensation for such assets or properties depends on whether the entire property will be affected or just a portion following the impact severity defined as follows:
a. Severe - The portion of the property to be affected is more than 20% of the total land area and/or structures or even less than 20% if the remaining portion is no longer economically viable or it will no longer function as intended. The owner of this property shall normally be entitled to full compensation.
b. Marginal - the impact is only partial and the remaining portion of the property or asset is still viable for continued use. Compensation will be for the affected area only.
