Proiect Obiectives and Description: The proposedproject is designedto promoteeconomic growth and alleviatepoverty in one of the less developed provincesof China. The main projectobjectives are to: (a) increasethe developmentof non-pollutingand cost- effectivehydropower resources to provideneeded peaking power in a predominantlythermal system; (b) increase agriculturalproduction to meet the needs of the growing population;(c) increasethe income of the poor farmersby intensifyingagricultural production and increasingthe productivityof croplandby alleviatingwater shortages and optimizingthe croppingpattern; (d) improvethe environmentalquality and public health of the regionby implementingan environmentalmanagement program; (e) strengthenlocal capabilitiesin developmentplanning of both power and agriculturalsectors; (f) promote rationalpricing of power ar..irrigation water; and (g) enhancethe operationa'efficiency and financial managementof HEPCO. The project includestwo main categoriesof components, power and agriculture/resettlement.The major power componentscomprise: (a) constructionof a 56 m high, 719 m long gravitydam of roller-compactedconcrete (RCC), flankedby about 5,100 m long earth embf.ibments; (b) constructionof an undergroundpowerhouse, equipped with four 60 MW generationsets, a surge shaft and 420 m long twin tailracetunnels; (c) erectionof about 36 km This document has a restricted distribution and may be used by recipients only in the performance ui their official duties. Its contents may not otherwise be disclosed without World Bank authorization. - ii - double circuit 220 kV transmissionline and Changjiang substation; (d) installationof a computerizedload dispatch system for the Hlainanpower grid; and (e) tech- nical assistance and training in project design, power system planning and tariff studies, utility and financial management. The major agricultural/resettlementcompo- nents comprise: (a) constructionof about 16-km long High Main Canal (HMC), about 154 km long branch/lateralcanals and on-farm works for the first stage development of irrigation totalllng about 12,700 ha in Dongfang County, of which about 1,400 ha would be related to resettlement; (b) resettlementof about 23,800 people in Dongfang and Ledong Counties, and provision of housing, infrastructure, on-farm works and land development for irrigation of about 2,300 ha; (c) provision of agriculturalsupport services; (d) provision of environmentalmanagement; and (e) tech- nical assistance fcr the preparationof an agricultural deve'lopmentplan. Benefits: Cost-effectivesupply of needed peaking power and irriga- tion water under the project would promote economic development and raise the standard of living in an impoverishedregion. The proposed power component is part of a least-cost power developmentprogram in Hainan. The overall economic rate of return of the project is 15 percent. Average per capita income of the farmers in the project area would increase from about US$75 to US$253 at full development. These ir;comeincreases would be significantin reducing the income imbalance of some 5,000 of the poorest families in Hainan. Farming activities under the project would generate abcut 14,300 new jobs, including increased employment opportunitiesfor women. Other unquantifiablebenefits of the project include institutionalbuilding, improved water supplies in a drought-proneregion and mitigation of environmental degradation. The development of renewable hydropower resourceswould mitigate air pollutior through the avoid- ance of burning some 300,000 tons of raw coal per year in Hainan. The water quality and public health in the region would also be enhanced by the implementationof the environmentalmanagement program (includingwastewater treatmentand a monitoring process) under this project. Risks: No major risks, includingenvironmental pro..lems, are foreseen for the proposed project. The tecehiicaland geological risks are expected to be minimal, as the project has been well investigatedand site conditions favor rapid constructionof the dam. To minimize potential risks associatedwith the execution of the project, including resettlement,assurances were obtained from the Government that it would ensure an adequate and timely flow of funds, and maintain effective project implementationmanagement. - lii - Estimated Costs: Local Forsizn Total ------ (USS million) ------ Preparatory Works 4.9 0.2 5.1 Resettlement 25.9 2.9 28.8 Environmental Management 1.2 0.7 1.9 Civil Works (Dam and Power Facilities) 35.3 0.9 36.2 HMC and Sanjiaolu canal system 7.5 2.5 10.0 Canals and on-farm works beyond resettlement 12.0 3.1 15.1 Major construction materials 1.0 25.7 26.7 Gates and Hoists 3.0 1.3 4.3 Turbines and Generators, and other plant equipment 13.5 1.2 14.7 T & G Governors and Static Excitation 0.2 3.8 3.9 PLC Equipment, transmission line, substation 2.2 5.1 7.3 Load Dispatch System for Hainan Island Grid 0.0 2.5 2.5 Agricultural f.pport Services 0.8 0.0 0.8 Project Management and Engineering 5.2 1.3 6.3 Technical Assistance and Training 1.0 1.4 2.3 Total Base Costs /a 113.6 52.2 165.8 Contingencies: Physical 10.5 2.9 13.4 Price 9.8 4.0 13.7 Total Prolect Costs 133.8 59.1 193.0 Interest during Constructions IBRD loan /b 4.8 2.0 6.8 Other loans 17.9 0.0 17.9 Total Financing Required /c 156.5 61.1 217.7 Project Financina Plan IBRD/IDA 17.0 50.0 67.0 TCC II 1d _ 0.3 0.3 UNDP - 0.1 0.1 Ministry of Water Resources 12.0 - 12.0 State Energy Investment Corporation 21.0 - 21.0 Hainan Provincial Government Loans 98.5 10.7 109.2 Grants 8.0 - 8.0 Total 156.5 61.1 217.7 Estimated IBRD/IDA Disbursements IBRD/IDA Fiscal Year 1992 1993 1994 1995 1996 -___________----- (US$ million) ---------- Annual 27.1 17.5 14.7 7.2 0.5 Cumulative 27.1 44.6 59.3 66.5 67.0 Economic Rate of Return: 15L La The project is exempt from taxes and import duties. /b Interest during construction (IDC) is based on onlending rate for projected disbursements of loan/credit proceeds.

  • Status of Wintering Waterbirds on Hainan Island: Results of Annual Waterbird Surveys Between 2008−2020
    FORKTAIL 36 (2020): 79–89 Status of wintering waterbirds on Hainan Island: results of annual waterbird surveys between 2008−2020 FEI LI, GANG LU, BOSCO PUI LOK CHAN, XI ZHENG, ZHI-QIN ZHOU & YAN-NI MO We conducted annual surveys on wintering waterbirds at a total of 81 wetland sites on China’s Hainan Island from 2008 to 2020. These surveys recorded 82 waterbird species. Little Egret Egretta garzetta, Lesser Sand Plover Charadrius mongolus and Kentish Plover C. alexandrinus were the most abundant species, while Little Egret, Chinese Pond Heron Ardeola bacchus and Common Sandpiper Actitis hypoleucos were the most widespread. We discovered a new and important wintering site for the endangered Black-faced Spoonbill Platalea minor in Danzhou Bay. Our data also suggest that Hainan may be a regular wintering site for a small number of Great Knot Calidris tenuirostris and Nordmann’s Greenshank Tringa guttifer. Sites of particular importance included Dongzhaigang, Houshui Bay, Danzhou Bay, Beili Bay, Changhuajiang River Estuary and Yinggehai Saltpans, but not all of them are formally protected at present. Our longitudinal data suggest an increasing trend in the total number of waterbirds counted, but this most likely reflects increased survey effort over the years, improving field skills of surveyors and a growing knowledge of important waterbird sites. The average annual count of waterbirds recorded during our 13-year survey period was relatively low compared with some nearby wetlands of importance on the mainland. Our surveys also detected continuous declines of waterbirds at some sites. To safeguard the future of Hainan’s waterbirds and their habitats, we recommend establishing new or expanding existing protected areas at key sites, and enhancing management and enforcement efforts throughout the island.

The significance and functions of the education in the mother tongue dialect to the growth of human should not be underestimated. However, in the current education system in China, what people accepts since childhood is the education in mandarin. To the university, only the students majoring in Chinese in some colleges and universities have the opportunity to contact the knowledge on the dialect, most people have not been educated in dialect. The serious absence of the education in dialect is the main cause of the ecological crisis of Chinese dialects. Teenagers are the main force carrying a dialect culture, which is also the special group of language users. How often they learn and use a dialect is crucial to its future development. Based on the investigation of the language use and education in dialect of the teenagers in the Jun Dialect area of Hainan Island, this paper analyzes the current situation of the development of Jun Dialect and puts forward the development direction of education in dialect in the future.
