It is also one component in "Three Longitudes and Three Latitudes" in Xinjiang 30-year Highway Network Program and one part of "Y-shape" main passage. It lies in the middle of Eurasian Continental Bridge. Since ancient times, it has been the only road that must be passed for international trade and cultural exchanges between the countries of middle and western Asia and China. Of 13 opened passes in Xinjiang, the Kuisai Highway reaches 8. Therefore, it is the crucial highway in Xinjiang to connect eastern and western areas. With the implementation of the Western Region Exploitation Policy, Kuisai Highway, as one of the significant projects of infrastructure construction, will play a significant role in the development. However, the existing road from Kuitun to the Sailimu Lake is of low standard and poor quality with poor service. Its current condition cannot meet the requirements of fast social and economic development. Following the opening of the Urumqi - Kuitun Highway, it will undoubtedly become a bottleneck to traffic in the section from Urumqi to Korgas Pass. In principle, the State Development and Planning Committee, the Ministry of Communication and the World Bank have all agreed to construct the proposed Kuisai Highway Project with the World Bank Loan. The Project Executive Office of Xinjiang High Grade Highway Construction Authority has authorized Xinjiang Environmental Techniques and Assessment Center to undertake the environmental impact assessment. Kuisai Highway Environmental Assessment Group January 2002 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OF EIA -XKSHP January 2002 Chapter 1 General 1.1 Objectives and CategoriesofAssessment The objectives of engineering environmental impact assessment of Kuisai Highway are to survey and understand the social and economic status, the natural ecological status, the acoustic environment and the air quality along the alignment. In accordance with characteristics of highway construction and future traffic status, the assessment will forecast and analyse the impact degrees and scopes by the Project in respect of acoustic and air environment, natural ecology, agriculture and husbandry production, and social economic environment during its construction and operation periods. It will raise some practical techniques and economical and reasonable prevention measures for environmental protection and provide a scientific basis for the design and administration departments to minimise any unfavourable impacts to environment by the Project so as to realize the co-ordinated development of economy and environment. According to the stipulations in the Guidelines of Environmental Akssessment by the World Bank (OP/BP/GP4.01) and the comments on TOR by the State Environmental Protection Bureau and by the World Bank, the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) has been completed as "A-type" for Kuisai Highway. 1.2 PreparationBasis 1) The Entnistment Letter to Undertake the EIA for Kuisai Highway Project" by the Project Executive Office of Xinjiang High Grade Highway Construction Authority; 2) "Feasibility Studies Report of Kuisai Highway Project" by Xinjiang Highway Planning, Survey & Design Institute; 3) "The Approval on Constniction of Kuisai Highway Project"; 4) Document No. 253 of State Council, P.R.C --- "Management Regulations for Environmental Protection of Project Constriction"; 5) Document No. 324 [1993] "Circular on Strengthening Management of the EIA of the Projects Financed by International Financial Organizations" by the SDPC, the State Environmental Protcction Bureau, the NIOF and the Bank of China; 6) The Guidelinies of Environmental Assessment by the World Bank (OP/BP/GP4.0l); 7) "Environmental Protection Law of P.

Considering the features of environmental impacts by highway constriction and the general development programs and the futuire functions of the towvns and cities along the roLute, it foctises on ecological and acoustic environment evaluations. The Assessment covers: 1) Evaluate eco-environmental impacts in different sections; 2) Impacts of traffic noise on major sensitive protected objectives; 3) Impacts of vehicle exhaust emissioni on Air environmiient; 4) Impacts on surface water along the Highway with the construction; 5) Impacts on social and economic enxironment: 6) lmpacts on eco-environment by noise and tail gas during constriction; 7) Analysis on comparison, selection and alternatives of the Project; 8) Mitigation measures of environmnental impacts and investment estimation: 9) Public consultation, in particular, investigates residents and herdsmen in the directly influenced areas and states the measures to be taken in the Report. 1.4 Assessment Standards 1.4.1 Water Environment The assessment factors are PH, F-, general hardniess, petrol sorts, COD,\,, and BOD5. The assessment standard adopts the ones stipulated in "Environmental Quality Standard of Surface Water" GIIZBI-1999.

BMC Ophthalmology (2021) 21:316 https://doi.org/10.1186/s12886-021-02065-4 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Prevalence and associated factors for climatic droplet keratopathy in Kazakhs adults: a cross-sectional study in Tacheng, Xinjiang, China Zhixiang Hua1,2,3, Xiaoyan Han1,2,3, Guoqing Li4,LiLv5, Xiaolan He4, Laman Gu4, Jianfeng Luo6,7,8*† and Jin Yang1,2,3*† Abstract Background: Investigation of the prevalence of climatic droplet keratopathy (CDK) in Tacheng, Xinjiang, China. Methods: A total of 1030 participants, in their 40s or older, from the Kazakh ethnic group in Tacheng, were randomly sampled by stratification method. Ophthalmic examinations and surveys were carried out on these participants. Factors associated with CDK were analyzed with logistic regression models. Results: CDK was found in 66 (6.4%; 95% confidence interval [CI]: 4.9–7.9%) Kazakh individuals. After multiple regression model analysis, it demonstrated that age (< 0.001), exposure time (< 0.001), exposure protection (< 0.001), and vegetable intake (< 0.001) were of correlation with CDK, of which age (OR = 1.21[CI]: 1.16– 1.27) and long-term outdoor exposure (OR = 2.42[CI]: 1.26–4.67) were the risk factors, and that vegetable intake (OR = 0.29[CI]: 0.14–0.59) and wearing a hat (OR = 0.24[CI]: 0.10–0.56) were protective factors. Conclusions: This study has revealed the risk and protective factors of CDK, providing a new insight on related research. Keywords: Climatic droplet keratopathy, Prevalence, Risk factors Background of CDK varies widely in different regions and ethnic Climatic droplet keratopathy (CDK) is also known as the groups, with rates as low as 2.7% [5] and as high as spheroidal keratopathy, Labrador keratopathy, or Bietti’s 100% [6].
