G/Scm/Q2/Chn/59 G/SCM/Q2/CHN/59 21 April 2016 (16-2252) Page: 1/297 Committee on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures Original: English SUBSIDIES REQUEST FROM THE UNITED STATES TO CHINA PURSUANT TO ARTICLE 25.10 OF THE AGREEMENT The following communication, dated 15 April 2016, is being circulated at the request of the Delegation of the United States. _______________ In the report that it prepared for China's most recent Trade Policy Review, held in July 2014, the Secretariat included information that it had uncovered on 30 support programs for China's fisheries sector.1 The Secretariat's Report noted that China had not notified any of these support programs to the Committee on Subsidies and Countervailing Measures (Committee) and that China could not verify any of the information provided to it by the Secretariat. During the ensuing Trade Policy Review meetings, China responded to Members' questions about these support programs by stating that it needed more time to identify and verify information regarding these support programs. In April of last year, the United States submitted questions to China with respect to these programs and other fishery support measures the United States had uncovered through its own efforts.2 Once again, despite its obligation under Article 25.9 of the Agreement to provide answers "as quickly as possible and in a comprehensive manner", China to date has not meaningfully responded to the United States' request and has refused repeated requests to meet bilaterally to discuss the issue, and the issue of subsidy notifications more generally. 1 See WT/TPR/S/300, page 88, paragraph 3.126, and pages 191-98, Table A3.6. 2 See G/SCM/Q2/CHN/52, 17 April 2015. G/SCM/Q2/CHN/59 - 2 - In November of last year, China submitted its latest subsidy notification covering the period 2009 through 2014.3 In this notification, China did not include: (1) any of the fishery subsidy programs identified in China's 2014 TPR report, (2) any of the additional measures identified by the United States in its Article 25.8 submission or (3) any of the fisheries subsidies measures identified in the 2014 Article 25.10 submission of the United States.4 Beyond the obligations all WTO Members have to notify their subsidy programs under Article 25 of the SCM Agreement, the dire state of the world's fisheries has led to calls for greater disciplines on fisheries subsidies that contribute to overfishing and overcapacity. While reaching agreement on such disciplines has been difficult, countries have recognized that an initial step should be greater transparency with respect to the fisheries subsidy programs currently in place. For example, on 28 August 2014, at the 4th APEC Ocean-Related Ministerial Meeting, APEC Ministers agreed to the Xiamen Declaration. Paragraph 21 of this Declaration states: In light of the Rio+20 outcome document, particularly paragraph 173, we encourage APEC members to further improve the transparency and reporting of existing fisheries subsidies programmes through the WTO, and to eliminate subsidies that contribute to overcapacity and over-fishing, and to refrain from introducing new such subsidies or from extending or enhancing existing such subsidies, without prejudice to the WTO Doha negotiations. In light of China's failure to substantially respond to questions raised in the context of its trade policy review, and the questions submitted by the United States under Article 25.8, the United States, once again, has no other choice but to avail itself of the mechanism under Article 25.10. The United States requests that China notify the programs and measures identified below to the Committee under Article 25.10 of the Agreement. Should a notification not be made promptly, the United States reserves its right to raise the alleged subsidies for discussion at the next regular meeting of the Committee. Although not required under Article 25.10, full translations of each of the measures cited below are attached to this submission. I. POLICIES TO DEVELOP MARINE FISHERIES 1.

  • A New Freshwater Psammodictyon Species in the Taihu Basin, Jiangsu Province, China
    144 Fottea, Olomouc, 20(2): 144–151, 2020 DOI: 10.5507/fot.2020.005 A new freshwater Psammodictyon species in the Taihu Basin, Jiangsu Province, China Qi Yang1, Tengteng Liu1, Pan Yu1, Junyi Zhang2, J. Patrick Kociolek3, Quanxi Wang & Qingmin You1* 1 College of Life Sciences, Shanghai Normal University, Shanghai 200234, China; *Corresponding author e– mail: [email protected] 2 Jiangsu Wuxi Environmental Monitoring Center, Wuxi 214121, China 3 Museum of Natural History and Department of Ecology and Evolutionary Biology, University of Colorado, Boulder, CO 80309, USA Abstract: We describe a new species of diatom, Psammodictyon taihuensis sp. nov., collected from the Taihu Basin, Jiangsu Province, China. There are several features of this diatom that suggest it should be included in the genus Psammodictyon, notably the possession of panduriform valves characterized by a longitudinal fold near the apical axis, coarsely areolate striae, and a keeled raphe system present on the valve margin. This species is distinct from others in the genus by its small size, being only 16.5–25.0 μm long and 10.0–12.5 μm wide in the central region, and with the widest valve being 10.5–13.5 μm in width. There are 8–11 distinct fibulae per 10 μm and the striae are composed of 18–22 coarse areolae per 10 μm. This is the first report of a freshwater member of the genus Psammodictyon in China, which expands the known geographical and ecological distributions of the genus and enhances our understanding of freshwater diatom diversity in China. Key words: diatom, new species, Psammodictyon, Taihu Lake, taxonomy Introduction opposing sides of the valves of the frustule (similar to the diagonal symmetry of other members of the family The genus Psammodictyon D.G.

Milne Edwards, 1853): those from the native culture area in the Yangcheng Lake, Yangcheng Lake-labeled crabs from the market, and those from aquaculture ponds. The electronic tongue data showed that umami was the most predominant taste in the steamed meat, followed by sweetness. The aftertaste of umami was clearly observed in all crab meat samples. Saltiness and bitterness varied widely depending on the geographic origin. There was only a little aftertaste of bitterness and no discernable sourness, astringency, or aftertaste of astringency. Principal component analysis (PCA) exhibited a clear grouping trend among the three crab groups. Linear discriminant analysis revealed that the crab groups can be separated from each other with 100% accuracy on the basis of the aforementioned measurable taste values. The taste sensing system can accurately profile the taste characteristics of crabs native to Yangcheng Lake, those marketed as Yangcheng Lake-labeled crabs, and those of pond-cultured crabs.

    Harnessing the Huai River Planned by Zhang Jian And the American Red Cross by QIAN Jian (Yulizi)① (Faculty of Liberal Arts, University of Nantong, Jiangsu, China. Postcode 226007) Abstract from p.1; Preface from p.2; Part one from p.3; Part two from p.6; Part three from p.11; Part four from p.14; Part five from p.19; Epilogue from p.22. Abstract： Flood out of the Huai River has yet not been completely forestalled, the terrible disaster happened frequently for several hundred years. Zhang Jian, who called for the harness of the Huai River as early as in 1887, set up the Department of Survey and Draw inside the Tungchow Teachers School in 1905. He was appointed Participating-Officer General of the Preparing Bureau of Releasing Huai next year. In 1909, he founded the Company of Water Conservancy Facilities along the Yangtze and Huai Rivers. In 1911, he established further the Bureau of Conservancy and Survey in the Yangtze and Huai Rivers and started formally the survey and plan of harness of the Huai River. In the same year, when the Huai River brought up a flood while the American Red Cross tried to relieve the people during the disaster and assigned an engineer to make survey at the same time and drew up a project for dredging up the Huai River.
