The specific standard limits are shown in attached Table II. 1.5 AssessmentScope and Target Year 1.5.1 According to the characteristics of the environmental impact during the construction and operation periods, the assessment scope of ecological, acoustic and atmospheric environments is defined as within 200m from the central line of the proposed highway, which may be expanded if there are some sensitive spots such as schools, hospitals or residential areas. The assessment scope of socioeconomic environment is normally defined as within the directly influenced areas. 1.5.2 Based on the construction schedule, environmental predictions are carried out at three stages of design, construction and operation, with the years of 2001, 2010, and 2021 as the representative prediction years. 2. Description of the Project 2.1 The HGE is totally 126. km long with 4 lanes. The technical standards for highways in plain and rolling terrain are adopted: the design vehicle speed is 120km/hr, and the subgrade is 28.Om wide. The whole line is all-sealed, with no grade crossing, and all the entrances and exits are controlled. There are altogether 7 interchanges, 53 grade separations, and 9 large bridges. It is also equipped with relatively complete transport engineering facilities such as 1 service area, 2 administrative sections, and 4 tollhouses. The land-acquisition totals 15160.5mu (i.e., 1010.7hectare, incl. temporary land-acquisition). The subgrade cut and fill amounts to 11380.242km3 . The total investment is estimated as RMB3407 million yuan. 2 SUMMARY OF ENVIRONMENT IMPACT ASSEMENT 2.2 The GAH is a 27.47km long, 4-lane, class-I highway. The design vehicle speed is lOOkmlhr,and the subgrade is 24.5m wide. There are 1 interchanges, 20 grade separation and 2 large biidge through the line, and there is 1 tollhouse. The land-acquisition covers 2507.86mu (i.e., 167.2hectare, incl. temporary land-acquisition).lhe total cut and fill volume is 2644.578km3. The total estimated investment amounts to about RMB500 million yuan. 3. Environmental Baseline 3.1 Topography and Geomorphology The HGE is located in the middle and southwest of Anhui Province, to the south of the watershed between the Changjiang River and the Huaihe River. In terms of geographical division, the project area is a part of the hilly terrain in the Changjiang River and the Huaihe River basins. There are mainly two types of geomorphology in this area: low hilly terrain and river valley plains and undulating plains. The sections in the terrain of separated mounds and ridges total longer than those in the alluvial plains. The earthquake intensity of Hefei-Lujiang section is 7 degrees, while that of Lujiang-Gaohebu section is 6 degrees. The GAH is located in the eastern part of the middle and southwest of the province, and the topography and geomorphology along the line is featured by low hills and level ground between hills. 3.2 Climate and Hydrology The area along the highway belongs to the zone of subtropical humid monsoon, which is featured by remarkable rnonsoon, distinct seasons, mild weather, and moderate rainfall. It is cold in winter and hot in summer, while in spring and autumn the weather is generally mild. The annual average temperature for years ranges 15-17 0 C. It has long winters and summers, and relatively short springs and autumns. The annual average precipitation is 989.3-1327.3mm, with rainfall concentrated in April-August, which is the rainy season that has 55-66% of total rainfall. The annual dominant wind directions vary in different places, mostly are SE, NW, and NE; the wind speed is generally 2.3- 3 SUMMARY OF ENVIRONMENT IMPACT ASSEMENT 3.2mI/s.The annual dominant wind direction of the G-A section is NE, and the wind speed is 3.2mI/s. The rivers within the project area belong to the water systems of the Changjiang River and the Chaohu Lake, and are mostly rivers of rainfall source. Besides, there are a large number of ponds, irrigation canals, and reservoirs. Those water resources are mainly for irrigation. The water quality of the water bodies is generally good. The drinking water for the residents along the highway is mainly from underground. 3.3 SocioeconomicConditions The project area has relatively advanced industry and agriculture; the national economy here occupies a determining status in the whole province. The area is the major place of paddy rice, cotton, tea and oil crops production of Anhui Province, and also the base of metallurgical industry, construction material industry, light and textile industry and food industry. It is shown in the statistics of the year 1995 that the population of the area has amounted to 20.747 million, and population density 412person/km2.The living conditions and education background of the people here are higher than the provincial average,and the cities of Hefei and Anqing are specially developed in higher education. The places like Lujiang, Luan and Anqing in the affected area of the project are rich in mineral resources such as iron, copper, sulphur, alum, gold, and phosphorus. 3.4 Ecological Environment This area is dominated by agricultural production, and so agricultural ecology takes a leading role in the ecological environment here. The agricultural vegetation includes mainly paddy rice, rape and wheat. The dry land yields mainly cotton, beans, sweet potato, sesame and corn. There are only some small areas of forests, and on the gentle slopes of the mounds and the hills there are some artificial woods. There are no protected wild animals or plants within 500m away from the roadside. Also, there are no natural protected areas. 4 SUMMARYOF ENVIRONMENTIMPACT ASSEMENT 3.5 Cultural Relics The field survey and investigation has found no cultural relics along the proposed of the highway. 3.6 Atmospheric Environmental Quality According to field survey, there is no major and stable pollution source. The main pollution sources in the present atmospheric environment are automobile tail gas, twice dust flying on the roads, and the CO and TSP produced by domestic activities and everyday working, but the emission volume is small. Therefore, it is concluded that the present atmospheric environment quality is good. In June 1997 and November 1997, the results show that except the daily average of TSP at one or two spots, all met the standard grade-2 .

Utilization of crop straw resources in Anhui Province, Eastern China. Bulg. J. Agric. Sci., 20: 1302-1310 Returning straw to fields is one of the most effective ways of maintaining and improving soil fertility. However, straw burning is a recurring phenomenon in China. To better understand the current situation facing the utilization of straw resourc- es in Anhui Province, a total of 731 typical fields and farmers were surveyed on a provincial scale in 2011 along a national highway, provincial highway and county road. Moreover, a total of 344 fields and farmers were surveyed on a county scale in three typical counties, i.e., Mengcheng County, Dingyuan County and Xuanzhou District. The average rates of straw return- ing were generally low in Anhui Province, with 30.2% for single-middle-season rice, 16.1% for early rice, 14.3% for wheat, 2.9% for rape, 1.8% for late rice and 1.8% for maize, respectively. The average return rate of wheat in the three typical counties was 13.2%, lower than the rates of the entire province; however, the return rates of other crops in the counties were all higher than those of the entire province.
