Enhanced wastewater and solid waste services will also help reduce pollution into the Bohai Sea and contribute to improving Bohai Sea water quality. Has the Project Development Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Program? Public Disclosure Authorized Yes No China-GEF-Liaoning (P090375) Global Environmental Objective (from Project Appraisal Document) The global environmental objective of the LMC-2 project with the GEF enhancements is the reduction of land-based pollution into the Bohai Sea through investments in wastewater and solid waste infrastructure and improved utility regulation, planning and management in the LMC-2 cities and throughout Liaoning Province. Has the Global Environmental Objective been changed since Board Approval of the Program?

Although significant percentage of physical works have been completed and started delivering benefits to target population, the achievement towards sustainability of services is still lagging behind. With respect to improving the performance of the water supply sector in Yingkou, the project has completed a water treatment plant (WTP), which is providing 100,000 tons/day of clean water, and meeting required quality standards. Another WTP of similar capacity in Anshan is Public Disclosure Copy expected to become operational in early 2013. In Xingcheng, the project has upgraded water supply distribution networks, constructed two pumping stations, and installed 2,200 water meters to improve water supply services. Non-Revenue Water (NRW) has improved somewhat in four of the five cities, but cost recovery progress is nil. With respect to improving the performance of the wastewater sector, two wastewater treatment plants (WWTP), each with a capacity of 200,000 m3/day, are now operational in Panjin and Yingkou. The effluent from both WWTPs meets required national standards, allowing them to contribute to the reducing pollution loads flowing into the Bohai Sea. A third WWTP in Gaizhou has been recently completed with a capacity of 50,000 m3/day. Cost recovery has improved in some wastewater utilities but still below the targets. With respect to the solid waste sector, the project is improving solid waste collection and disposal in three cities. Currently, the landfill in Panjin is receiving nearly 550 tons of refuse per day and the landfill in Fushun is receiving nearly 1,200 tons/day exceeding their end-of-project targets of 450 tons/day and 360 tons/day respectively. The Yingkou sanitary landfill will be dropped since a suitable location could not be identified. Progress toward the GEF DO is rated unsatisfactory. Land-based pollution is seeing reductions as the WWTPs come on line. However, the GEF-supported activities, which will improve utility performance and sustainability, are not expected to start until mid-2013 and cannot be completed by the current closing date.

In this paper, we evaluated the sustainability of the 14 cities in Liaoning, China, from 2015 to 2017. Based on the comprehensive consideration of the interactions among the social, economic and environmental systems, the traditional evaluation indicator system is refined. We incorporate the attitude of decision makers into the evaluation model and propose an objective weighting method by considering data distribution to objectively guide the cities to develop towards the established goals. The empirical research results show that cities located in eastern Liaoning performed the best and in western Liaoning performed the worst. The performances of the 14 cities in Liaoning were not perfect. Both the evaluation values and growth rates of 7 cities (accounting for 50.00%) were lower than the overall average level. The evaluation values of the three systems of the 14 cities were not balanced. The evaluation values of the social, economic and environmental systems fluctuated within the range of [0.0159, 0.0346], [0.0151, 0.0677] and [0.0123, 0.0483], respectively.

  • Study on the Economic Competitiveness
    6th International Conference on Management, Education, Information and Control (MEICI 2016) Study on the Economic Competitiveness Evaluation of Coastal Counties: Example as Liaoning Province Qiang Mao School of Management, Bohai University, Jinzhou 121013, China. [email protected] Keywords: Economic competitiveness; Competitiveness evaluation; Coastal counties Abstract. The competitiveness of coastal county is an important area of study on regional competitiveness, and evaluation study on county economy is important basis and foundation to improve the competitiveness of coastal county economy. Based on a brief description of literature review, a method based on stakeholders’ perspective is proposed to solve the competitiveness evaluation problem. In addition, the effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated by the example as Liaoning province. Finally, some countermeasures are proposed to promote coastal county economy according the evaluation result and characteristics. Introduction Due to convenient transportation conditions for international trade, coastal counties get prosperity for trading with the world and will be easy to form manufacturing bases for processing trade. Many scholars are attracted to the research of economic competitiveness evaluation for its widely application background. Liu(2013) established evaluation index system of county economy for Tangshan, and proposed a method for county economy evaluation based on factor analysis [1]. He(2014) designed evaluation index system based on the perspective of economy development demand in county level, and analyzed the supporting ability of science and technology in Anhui by means of analytic hierarchy process(AHP) [2].Above mentioned methods have each superiority, but evaluation results rely too much on experts’ preference. Evaluation objects are considered as passive objects in the above evaluation problems, while evaluation objects always have more complete evaluation information.

Based on DEA model and from the viewpoint of constant scale return and changing scale return, this paper calculates the comprehensive rela- tive efficiency and scale relative efficiency of the infrastructure investment in Liaoning Coastal Economic Belt in 2000-2009, and draws the following conclusion: Infrastructure investments in Dalian, Jinzhou and Panjin are compre- hensively relative efficient, while infrastructure investments in Dandong,Yingkou and Huhudao are comprehensively relative inefficient. Infrastructure investments in Yingkou and Huludao are technically efficient, but inefficient in the sense of scale, and are taking increasing scale returns, while the infrastructure investment in Dandon is inefficient from both the technology and scale senses, and is showing a decreasing scale return.

[email protected] Keywords: Integrated economic strength; Comprehensive evaluation; Coastal counties; Liaoning province Abstract. The integrated economic strength evaluation of coastal counties is an important area of study on regional competitiveness, and the research results may help government to make strategic adjustments in the distribution and structure. Based on a brief description of literature review, a method based on stakeholders’ perspective is proposed to solve the integrated economic strength evaluation problem. In addition, the effectiveness of the proposed method is illustrated by the example as Liaoning province. Finally, some development proposals are proposed to promote coastal counties economy according to the evaluation result and characteristics.

This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. Analysis of human living environmental quality of Shenyang-Dalian urban agglomerations has important theoretical and practical significance in rapid development region. A lot of investigations have been carried for Shenyang-Dalian urban agglomerations, including 38 counties. Based on the carrying capacity of resources, natural and socioeconomic environmental factors and regional changes of human living environmental evaluation are analyzed with the application of geographic information systems (GIS) software. By using principal component analysis (PCA) model and natural breaks classification (NBC) method, the evaluation results are divided into five categories. The results show thatuman theh living environmental evaluation (HLEE) indexes of Dalian, Shenyang, and Liaoyang are higher than other counties. Among these counties, the human living environmental evaluation (HLEE) indexes of coastal counties are significantly higher than inland counties. The range of the human living environmental evaluation index in most of the study area is at III, IV,and V levels, accounting for 80.01%.
