An environmental impact assessment (EIA) was Assessment undertaken for each of the investment components under the Project. The summary EIA was circulated to the Board of Directors and uploaded on the website of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) on 14 August 2008. Project Description Wuzhou city is a medium-sized city in the Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region. Over centuries, Wuzhou has served as a gateway city and regional transportation center to connect Guangxi with national and international markets, particularly through river transportation. In line with the Government’s development program, Wuzhou will be developed into a multimode regional transportation hub through domestically funded ongoing transportation projects. However, geological and geographic conditions constrain urban development in Wuzhou. The city is in a mountainous region divided into three parts by two big rivers. Because flat urban land is lacking, the residents tended to build their houses in the marginal lands, which were gradually expanding up the mountains along slopes of major valleys. The mountains in Wuzhou are mainly formed by loose earth, eroded granite, and clastic rocks. As such, they are vulnerable to rain-triggered geological disasters (known as geohazards) in the form of landslides, slope collapse, and mud and debris flows. Many of these valleys, though densely populated, have been classified as geohazard-prone zones. With support from the central Government, the Wuzhou municipal government (WMG) has made enormous investments to strengthen the control of geological disasters, mainly by building and rehabilitating of the slope protections and retaining walls. However, such traditional control measures have not always been economical and optimal solutions. Under severe weather conditions, these slope protections and retaining walls can be washed away together with houses and other buildings. ii The Guangxi Wuzhou Urban Development Project will adopt a new approach to address the geohazard concern of the city. The basic principle of this new approach to geohazard management is a shift from disaster rehabilitation to prevention. Under the Project, geological disasters are to be prevented through holistic urban planning and integrated public investment. The combination of these efforts will result in (i) carefully designed urban planning for long-term urban expansion, (ii) relocation of the people living in the geohazard-prone valley to the newly developed geohazard- free urban area, (iii) engineering measures for geohazard control to convert the evacuated geohazard-prone valley into geohazard- free land for urban redevelopment, and (iv) stronger geohazard forecasting and early warning capability to improve the effectiveness of the city’s geohazard management system. Rationale Wuzhou is a less developed, medium-sized city in western PRC. The Project will help the city deal with geohazards–a major development constraint–and help free thousands of people from the threat of geological disasters. The Project will introduce an innovative approach to address the geohazards in urban development. The Project is expected to play a demonstration role for many other cities facing similar geological conditions in the PRC. Impact and Outcome The impact of the Project is sustained urban development and better living standards for the people in Wuzhou. The outcome of the Project is a reduction in the geohazard threat to the life and property of the Wuzhou people and in the geohazard constraints to urban development. Project Investment Plan The investment cost of the Project is estimated at $263.3 million, including taxes and duties of $4.9 million. Financing Plan Source Amount % of Total ($ million equivalent) Asian Development Bank 100.0 38.0 Wuzhou Municipal Government 82.5 31.3 China Construction Bank 80.9 30.7 Total 263.3a 100.0 a Numbers may not add up due to rounding. Source: Asian Development Bank estimates. A loan of $100 million from ADB’s ordinary capital resources will be provided under its London interbank offered rate (LIBOR)- based lending facility. The loan will have a 25-year term including a grace period of 5 years, an interest rate determined in accordance with ADB’s LIBOR-based lending facility for US dollar loans, a commitment charge, and such other terms and conditions set forth in the draft Loan and Project Agreements. iii The ADB loan will finance 38% of the project cost. WMG will cofinance 31.3% of the Project cost, while China Construction Bank will cofinance 30.7%. Allocation and Relending The Government will relend loan proceeds to the Guangxi Zhuang Terms Autonomous Region government, which will then onlend the proceeds to WMG. The loan will be relent to WMG on the same terms and conditions as those of the ADB loan, with WMG bearing the foreign exchange and interest rate variation risks of the ADB loan. Period of Utilization Until 31 December 2014 Estimated Project 30 June 2014 Completion Date Executing Agency Wuzhou municipal government Implementation WMG has established a project leading group, chaired by the Arrangements executive vice mayor, to direct the Project and provide policy guidance during project implementation. Under the project leading group, WMG has set up a project management office (PMO) to undertake and coordinate the day-to-day activities in connection with the Project. By entering into an undertaking agreement, WMG will designate Dongtai State Assets Operations Corporation—a company wholly owned by the WMG that specializes in urban construction—to be the implementing agency. It will carry out the day-to-day implementation of the Project, including procuring goods and works under the Project.

PORTER3 1State Key Laboratory of Integrated Management of Pest Insects and Rodents, Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing 100101, China 2E-mail: [email protected] 3USDA-ARS, Center for Medical, Agricultural and Veterinary Entomology, 1600 SW 23rd Drive, Gainesville, FL 32608 ABSTRACT The red imported fire ant, Solenopsis invicta Buren is a serious invasive insect that is native to South America. Its presence was officially announced in mainland China in Jan 2005. To date, it has been identified in 4 provinces in mainland China (Guangdong, Guangxi, Hunan, Fujian) in a total of 31 municipal districts. The total area reported to be infested by S. invicta in late 2006 was about 7,120 ha, mainly in Guangdong Province (6,332 ha). Most of the re- ported human stings are in the heavily infested area around Wuchuan City. The most com- monly reported reactions have been abnormal redness of the skin, sterile pustules, hives, pain, and/or fever. It has been predicted that most of mainland China is viable habitat for red imported fire ants, including 25 of 31 provinces. The probable northern limit of expan- sion reaches Shandong, Tianjing, south Henan, and Shanxi provinces. Traditional and new insecticides including the bait N-butyl perfluorooctane sulfonamide and the contact insecti- cide Yichaoqing have been developed and used to control S. invicta. The Ministry of Agricul- ture and the Chinese government have established an 8-year eradication program (2006 to 2013) for S.

  • Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor?
    DOI:http://dx.doi.org/10.7314/APJCP.2015.16.8.3579 Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor? RESEARCH ARTICLE Anisotropic Patterns of Liver Cancer Prevalence in Guangxi in Southwest China: Is Local Climate a Contributing Factor? Wei Deng1&, Long Long2&*, Xian-Yan Tang3, Tian-Ren Huang1, Ji-Lin Li1, Min- Hua Rong1, Ke-Zhi Li1, Hai-Zhou Liu1 Abstract Geographic information system (GIS) technology has useful applications for epidemiology, enabling the detection of spatial patterns of disease dispersion and locating geographic areas at increased risk. In this study, we applied GIS technology to characterize the spatial pattern of mortality due to liver cancer in the autonomous region of Guangxi Zhuang in southwest China. A database with liver cancer mortality data for 1971-1973, 1990-1992, and 2004-2005, including geographic locations and climate conditions, was constructed, and the appropriate associations were investigated. It was found that the regions with the highest mortality rates were central Guangxi with Guigang City at the center, and southwest Guangxi centered in Fusui County. Regions with the lowest mortality rates were eastern Guangxi with Pingnan County at the center, and northern Guangxi centered in Sanjiang and Rongshui counties. Regarding climate conditions, in the 1990s the mortality rate of liver cancer positively correlated with average temperature and average minimum temperature, and negatively correlated with average precipitation. In 2004 through 2005, mortality due to liver cancer positively correlated with the average minimum temperature. Regions of high mortality had lower average humidity and higher average barometric pressure than did regions of low mortality.

Read Full License Page 1/20 Abstract Background: Taxilli Herba (TH) is a commonly used Chinese medicinal herb that parasitizes different tree types, but objective methods to determine its quality and detect contamination from host substances have not been reported. Thus, we aimed to establish methods to improve the safety and quality of TH.
