What is the process of land allocation to herders? 
No specific land is allocated. All hired 
herders are free to choose the land that 
belongs to LLC. After choosing a specific 
place hired herder is obliged to inform LLC. 
Local communities are allowed to graze 
livestock within 5km of their community. 
As majority of herders belong to Kazakh 
nationality, management of LLC gives them 
freedom of choosing a land and other 
activities. This is so as to avoid conflicts 
between 
administration 
of 
LLC 
and 
representatives of Kazakh nationality 
Is there specified size and location where each 
hired herder should graze a livestock? 
No, there are no specific parameters or rules 
for land allocation. 
How many herders are currently working at the 
Project site and number of leased livestock to 
them (with a breakdown)? 
No response provided 
Does Dzhankeldy LLC have any 
structure/buildings at the project site and if yes 
how many? 
Overall, LLC has approximately 50 
structures, 12 of which are buildings for 
living, located all around the land 
allocated for Dzhankeldy LLC. 
However, we do not know how many of 
them are located within the Project 
boundaries. 
If not owned or constructed by the LLC did the 
herders have to obtain permission from the LLC 
to construct these structures? 
Herders are strictly obliged to get a 
permission from LLC in order to make any 
constructions. 
Does Dzhankeldy LLC allow herders to graze their 
own livestock along with leased ones? 
Yes, LLC allows to graze own livestock to 
support herders. 
Do the herders herding their own livestock have 
to pay any fees to the LLC? 
No, LLC do not charge any fees for livestock 
owned by herders. 
Does Dzhankeldy LLC monitors grazing activities 
of other herders (from local communities, 
seasonal, nomadic ones. 
No, LLC doesn’t monitor any herders, apart 
from those who are officially hired. 
Does the LLC have any assets on the project site 
like water wells, pumps etc? 
There is only one settlement (settlement of 
Perdesh) which is owned by LLC.
Also, LLC owns 4 wells that are located 
within the Project site.
