RECORD OF CHANGES TO THE PROJECT ADMINISTRATION MANUAL 107 ANNEX Environmental Management Plan Project Administration Manual Purpose and Process The project administration manual (PAM) describes the essential administrative and management requirements to implement the project on time, within budget, and in accordance with the policies and procedures of the government and Asian Development Bank (ADB). The PAM should include references to all available templates and instructions either through linkages to relevant URLs or directly incorporated in the PAM. For this project two PAMs were developed to better serve the two distinct component types of the project and the respective parties involved: (i) Project Administration Manual: Investment Project Components (Section A) to be referred to as PAM (Section A), which is this PAM (Section A) and is now updated to include the additional financing loan (to cover the gap from originally planned cofinancing that did not materialize) which helps finance civil works and goods of outputs 3–5; and (ii) Project Administration Manual: Financial Intermediation Component and Business Development Services Subcomponent (Section B) to be referred to as PAM (Section B) for the original loan. The Heilongjiang Provincial Government (HPG), the executing agency; and the four implementing agencies: the Hegang Municipal Government (HMG), Jixi Municipal Government (JMG), Qitaihe Municipal Government (QMG), and Shuangyashan Municipal Government (SMG); are wholly responsible for the implementation of ADB-financed projects, as agreed jointly between the borrower and ADB, and in accordance with the policies and procedures of the government and ADB. ADB staff is responsible for supporting implementation including compliance by HPG, HMG, JMG, QMG, and SMG, of their obligations and responsibilities for project implementation in accordance with ADB’s policies and procedures. At loan negotiations, the borrower and ADB shall agree to the PAM and ensure consistency with the loan agreement. Such agreement shall be reflected in the minutes of the loan negotiations. In the event of any discrepancy or contradiction between the PAM and the loan agreement, the provisions of the loan agreement shall prevail. After ADB Board approval of the project's report and recommendations of the President (RRP), changes in implementation arrangements are subject to agreement and approval pursuant to relevant government and ADB administrative procedures (including the Project Administration Instructions) and upon such approval, they will be subsequently incorporated in the PAM. I. PROJECT DESCRIPTION A. Rationale 1. The project cities were important bases for coal mining and electricity production in the People's Republic of China (PRC), particularly between 1949 and 2013. 1 Their fundamental reliance on coal mining and related industries made their economies vulnerable, especially when coal prices dropped steeply in 2013. Changing global and domestic energy and climate change policies also contributed to rapid economic decline, wage reductions, unemployment, urban poverty, and population loss in the project cities.2 In 2014, the project cities had an average per capita gross domestic product of CNY26,600, 33% lower than the average rate in Heilongjiang Province, which in turn was about 16% below the national average. 2. The project cities suffer from environmental degradation (pollution of soil, water, and air) caused by more than 60 years of coal mining. This, along with inadequate urban infrastructure and services—e.g., water supply, wastewater management, drainage, and district heating systems—makes for poor livability. Project cities lack adequate road maintenance, public transport, bus lanes, bus stops, and sidewalks; and urgently need road rehabilitation. Some rivers, especially in Hegang and Jixi, flood during heavy storms, have narrow channels, and are polluted by sediments and untreated discharge of domestic and industrial wastewater. 3. Value added by the Asian Development Bank (ADB) assistance. ADB helped identify and comprehensively tackle key economic development challenges through non-coal diversification, sustainable and inclusive private sector development, and job creation. It enabled a holistic investment project that will generate cross-sector synergies. It prepared a diversification road map and small and medium-sized enterprise (SME) development and financing program to leverage ADB funds and strengthen the local finance sector. It contributes to regional public goods by preparing initial mining remediation strategies and identifying pilot projects that improve the environment and public health, and initiate a change of image from dirty coal cities to livable, clean, and green cities. ADB assessed the climate risk and proposed adaptation measures that are included in the overall project. 4. Strategic fit. The project builds on more than 20 years of partnership between ADB and Heilongjiang Province, including several strategic priority projects such as reducing pollution and flood risk in the Songhua River Basin with both public and private sector support.3 It supports government strategies to revitalize the PRC’s challenged northeastern region. Through its strategic and holistic approach, the project will support the (i) 13th five-year plans of the governments of the PRC, Heilongjiang Province, and project cities to transform the economy and improve financing of new industries and SMEs;4 (ii) Transformation Development Planning of Coal Cities in Heilongjiang Province, 2014–2020 by assisting SMEs in non-coal pillar industries such as green food processing, graphite high-tech materials and products, machinery, tourism, 1 Heilongjiang Provincial Government (HPG). 2016.

    2017 3rd International Conference on Education and Social Development (ICESD 2017) ISBN: 978-1-60595-444-8 Research on Employment Difficulties and the Reasons of Typical Resource-Exhausted Cities in Heilongjiang Province during the Economic Transition Wei-Wei KONG1,a,* 1School of Public Finance and Administration, Harbin University of Commerce, Harbin, China [email protected] *Corresponding author Keywords: Typical Resource-Exhausted Cities, Economic Transition, Employment. Abstract. The highly correlation between the development and resources incurs the serious problems of employment during the economic transition, such as greater re-employment population, lower elasticity of employment, greater unemployed workers in coal industry. These problems not only hinder the social stability, but also slow the economic transition and industries updating process. We hope to push forward the economic transition of resource-based cities and therefore solve the employment problems through the following measures: developing specific modern agriculture and modern service industry, encouraging and supporting entrepreneurships, implementing re-employment trainings, strengthening the public services systems for SMEs etc. Background According to the latest statistics from the State Council for 2013, there exists 239 resource-based cities in China, including 31 growing resource-based cities, 141 mature, and 67 exhausted. In the process of economic reform, resource-based cities face a series of development challenges. In December 2007, the State Council issued the Opinions on Promoting the Sustainable Development of Resource-Based Cities. The National Development and Reform Commission identified 44 resource-exhausted cities from March 2008 to March 2009, supporting them with capital, financial policy and financial transfer payment funds. In the year of 2011, the National Twelfth Five-Year Plan proposed to promote the transformation and development of resource-exhausted area.

  • Regional Ecological Risk Assessment of Wetlands in the Sanjiang Plain with Respect to Human Disturbance
    sustainability Article Regional Ecological Risk Assessment of Wetlands in the Sanjiang Plain with Respect to Human Disturbance Hui Wang 1,2, Changchun Song 2,* and Kaishan Song 2 1 College of Tourism and Geography, Jiujiang University, Jiujiang 332005, China; [email protected] 2 Key Laboratory of Wetland Ecology and Environment, Northeast Institute of Geography and Agroecology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Changchun 130102, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 31 December 2019; Accepted: 27 February 2020; Published: 5 March 2020 Abstract: Characterization of the intensity of regional human disturbances on wetlands is an important scientific issue. In this study, the pole-axis system (involving multi-level central places and roads) was recognized as a proxy of direct risk to wetlands stemming from human activities at the regional or watershed scale. In this respect, the pole-axis system and central place theory were adopted to analyze the spatial agglomeration characteristics of regional human activities. Soil erosion and non-point source (NPS) pollution, indicating the indirect effect of human activities on wetlands, were also considered. Based on these human disturbance proxies, which are considered regional risk sources to wetlands, incorporated with another two indicators of regional environment, i.e., vulnerability and ecological capital indexes, the regional ecological risk assessment (RERA) framework of wetlands was finally established. Using this wetland RERA framework, the spatial heterogeneity

Vol. 27, No. 3 (2018), 1165-1174 DOI: 10.15244/pjoes/75190 ONLINE PUBLICATION DATE: 2017-12-13 Original Research Analyzing Ecological Functions in Coal Mining Cities Based on RS and GIS Ling Liu1, 2, Jinsheng Zhou1, 2* 1School of Humanities and Economic Management, China University of Geosciences, P. R. China 2Key Laboratory of Carrying Capacity Assessment for Resource and Environment, Ministry of Land and Resources, Beijing 100083, China Received: 16 March 2017 Accepted: 21 June 2017 Abstract Ecological problems have long been a hard issue in mining cities. This paper tried to present ecological functions in mining cities from two aspects: landscape ecology and ecological carrying capacity. The city of Qitaihe, one of the coal cities in Heilongjiang Province in northeastern China, was chosen as a typical study area. Remote sensing data from 1957, 1985, 2000, and 2015, and geographic information system (GIS) techniques were employed to obtain land use and cover information. Methods of landscape pattern indexes and a modified model of ecological carrying capacity which added social and economy index were used to study the spatial and temporal variation of the ecological condition. Results showed that the landscape pattern changed tremendously during the study period due to interference from human activity. The degree of aggregation, dominance, and fragmentation of mining land showed an increasing trend. On the other hand, the ecological carrying capacity per capita declined by 37.4% from 1985 to 2000. Except for the growth of population, the dim social and economic conditions had an impact on this decline too. In addition, spatial distribution of land types and ecological carrying capacity also had some correlation with the city’s overall planning.
