One of the worst hit towns, Beichuan, was sealed off again after crowd problems arose when survivors were allowed to return to collect possessions. Shelter Need: An estimated 15 million people have been displaced of whom one third – about fi ve million – are homeless. Tents: Some 1.58 million tents have been delivered. The international Red Cross has delivered about 88,300 of 103,000 tents that it planned to bring in. However, because of the speed with which transitional housing is being built, the unused tents are likely to be sent elsewhere. Transitional Shelter Plan: The Ministry of Housing and Urban Rural Devel- opment has told local authorities to build one million temporary or transitional earthquake-resilient shelters by August. By the end of June, nearly 314,000 transitional houses had been built, 32,000 more were under construction, and materials were in place for close to 64,000 more. Transitional House Specifi cations: The authorities specify that the transition- al homes should either be assembled with steel sandwich panels or made from light-weight steel and plywood kits. Each unit should cover 20 sq, m. Materials should be recyclable. The homes should last three-to-fi ve years.

One middle school should be built for every 2,000 transitional homes. Price Controls: The government has ordered controls on the prices of con- struction material. It is not clear for how long this will be maintained if short- ages arise.

Habitat for Humanity’s Response Appeal: Habitat for Humanity has launched an initial US$5 million appeal cam- paign for the fi rst-phase of a long-term and sustained effort to rebuild homes and lives following the earthquake in China.

Three-part Response: Working with the local Jingyang district government and subject to clearance from higher authorities, Habitat envisages a three-part response: • Habitat will work with local government and home partners to provide technical assistance in designing earthquake-resilient buildings, and in construction management. Most homes will be rebuilt in existing villages. • Habitat will work with partners to meet government guidelines to build a certain number of schools, clinics and other facilities along with the houses. • Habitat will leverage donor funding by working with the local au- thorities and fi nancing institutions to provide micro-fi nancing facilities to supplement the cost of construction. The local and central govern- ments are due to provide shelter grants of RMB20,000 (US$2,900) for each family.

Leadership: Habitat for Humanity has appointed an experienced project direc- tor to lead the program. A decision has still to be made on whether to base the response team out of Chengdu or closer to Jingyang. CEO Visit: Habitat for Humanity International’s chief executive met families and offi cial in Jingyang and other earthquake-devastated communities during a visit to Sichuan at the end of June. Fund Raising: Habitat for Humanity supporters around the world are raising money in aid of Habitat’s reconstruction efforts. Events that have taken place or are planned include charity walks; student-fund raisers; a photo exhibition; a wine auction and a gala ball. Publicity: Broadcasters worldwide, including Australia’s ABC and TVS Syd- ney, and US-based CNNI and Discovery Networks have agreed to show a pub- lic service announcement to raise awareness and funds for Habitat’s recon- struction program. Volunteers: There are opportunities for volunteers to participate in Habitat reconstruction programs after natural disasters, but usually once reconstruction programs are up and running. When the programs in Jingyang and elsewhere reach that stage, Habitat will welcome volunteers.

Abstract: Cd and Pb in farmland topsoil are controlled by many factors. To identify the source of potential toxic metals in the farmland topsoil around Mianyuan River, the chemical analysis and multivariate statistical analysis are performed in this study. The results indicate the following: (1) The concentration of Cd and Pb in soil exceed the background value of Chinese soil elements. (2) Cd is significantly enriched in the whole region and Pb is locally enriched, both of them are more or less influenced by human activities. (3) The contents of Cd and Pb increase significantly following the flow direction of river. (4) Pb isotope analysis indicates that the main source of Pb in the soil include the air dust, coal and phosphate plant, and the contribution of them decreases successively. (5) Linear correlation analysis and principal component analysis show that the main sources of Cd in the soil are mining phosphate rock, air dust, phosphate plant and coal mining.
