As defined in the summary environmental impact assessment (SEIA) for Songhua River Basin Water Pollution Control and Management Project (the Project) under ADB Loan, independent environmental reports (EMRs) are to be prepared in order to evaluate and assess overall project activities to ensure the effective implementation of the environmental management plan (EMP). 2. The purpose of the EMR is to document a screening of the environmental activities and consequences of this project for the period of January to December 2011. As the second annual EMR, it will not only cover the construction, commissioning and operation phases, but also demonstrate compliance with the EMP for the design, bidding, and construction preparation stages. In line with targets aimed at reducing the negative environmental impacts of the Project and in accordance with all the relevant specifications and standards of China, as well as the policies of the Asian Development Bank (ADB), this report will emphasize: (i) progress made in implementing the EMPs, (ii) implementation of mitigation measures, (iii) environmental compliance, (iv) institutional strengthening and training, (v) public consultation, and (vi) problems that have occurred and corrective actions taken. B. Project Objective and Components 3. The Project (Jilin Component) will enhance the urban environment and improve public health and the quality of life for urban residents in the project cities and counties in Jilin Province. This will be achieved by increasing wastewater treatment coverage, and enhancing solid waste management (SWM). The outcome of the Project will be reduced pollution and improved wastewater management, and SWM in the Songhua River Basin (SRB). 4. The Jilin component has three subcomponents: (i) wastewater treatment, (ii) solid waste management (SWM), and (iii) river improvement. The first subcomponent includes the construction of 9 WWTPs with a total capacity of 178,000 m3/day and 368 km of sewer pipelines. The second subcomponent includes the construction of 10 sanitary landfill facilities with a total capacity of 2,400 tons per day with service life ranging from 13 to 22 years. The third subcomponent includes river improvement at the source of the Songhua River including (i) 2 WWTPs with total capacity of 3,100 m3/day, (ii) 3 solid waste transfer stations with a total capacity of 40 tons per day, and (iii) 3.8 km of sewer pipelines. C. Project Implementation Progress 5. The Project implementation period is from January 2009 to December 2013 and is proceeding as scheduled. The Project period has elapsed 60%, 36 months out of 60 months. The Project implementation has progressed on weighted average about 75% as of December 2011. The project implementation progress is briefly described in Table 1.1 (as of December 2011). 6. The status of environmental acceptance and audit report preparation for each completed component by a qualified institute in accordance with the Management Guideline on Project Completion Environmental Audit (2001) is summarized in Table 1.2 (as of December 2011). 2 Table 1.1 Project Implementation Progress (as of December 2011) No. Project Status Implementation Description I.

  • Evaluating Poverty Alleviation by Relocation Under the Link Policy: a Case Study from Tongyu County, Jilin Province, China
    Article Evaluating Poverty Alleviation by Relocation under the Link Policy: A Case Study from Tongyu County, Jilin Province, China Cunming Zou, Jianzhi Liu, Bencheng Liu, Xuhan Zheng and Yangang Fang * School of Geographical Sciences of Northeast Normal University, Changchun 130024, China; [email protected] (C.Z.); [email protected] (J.L.); [email protected] (B.L.); [email protected] (X.Z.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +86-431-85099550 Received: 7 September 2019; Accepted: 10 September 2019; Published: 16 September 2019 Abstract: Land, nature, and the social environment in contiguous poor regions are harsh and difficult to change. The poor adaptive capacities of the socio-ecological systems of these regions are the main causes of deep, persistent poverty. In February 2016, the Chinese government issued a policy proposing to promote poverty alleviation by relocation (PAR) by means of the “Linking increases in urban construction land with decreases in rural construction land” policy (or simply, the “Link Policy” or LP), which intends to realize the sustainable social and economic development of local villages. Since then, many pilot projects have been carried out across the country based on local resources, environment, and economic development; however, few related studies on these cases have been conducted. After a review of poverty alleviation policies, this paper first introduces the unsustainable conditions of poor rural areas and the implications and advantages of PAR under the Link Policy; we then analyzed the complete PAR process, including formulation, implementation, and completion, by taking Tongyu County in Jilin Province as an example. The study found that the “whole village relocation” model practiced in Tongyu County was relatively successful in terms of improving the living environment, income, and public services of local villagers.

  • Sources of Metasilicate in Mineral Water of Jingyu County, Northeastern China
    E3S Web of Conferences 98, 01052 (2019) https://doi.org/10.1051/e3sconf/20199801052 WRI-16 Sources of metasilicate in mineral water of Jingyu County, northeastern China Changlai Xiao1, Yajie Yuan1, Xiujuan Liang1,*,Weifei Yang1, and Ying Sun1 1Key Laboratory of Groundwater Resources and Environment, Ministry of Education, Jilin University, No 2519, Jiefang Road, Changchun130021, PR China Abstract. The source of metasilicate in mineral water of Jingyu County. located in Changbai Mountains of northeastern China, was analysed through two groups of water-rock interaction experiments. One is a hydrolysis immersion experiment using basalt and the other is an immersion experiment utilizing a mixture of soil, scoria, and clastic basalt under the same conditions. Results indicate that the metasilicate in mineral water is mainly derived from the hydrolysis of silicates and silica in the basalt, scoria, and soil. In the first immersion experiment, the release of metasilicate is linear, with dissolved metasilicate increasing continuously through time at a stable release rate of about 0.01 mg/(kgday). The second experiment indicates that the contribution of soil and scoria to metasilicate in mineral water is higher than that of clastic basalt under the same conditions. 1 Introduction Many studies on hydrogeochemical characteristics of groundwater and on water-rock interactions have been conducted by different scholars [1-4]. Natural mineral water has attracted much attention due to its special components that are beneficial to our health [2-4]. Changbai Mountains is one of the three largest natural mineral water sources in the world, comparable to the Alps and the North Caucasus mountains. It is also a source of mineral water, with a large area of 16,300 km2 covered with basalt.

Academic Editor: Miklas Scholz Received: 29 June 2015 / Accepted: 24 July 2015 / Published: 30 July 2015 Abstract: This paper introduces a surrogate model to identify an optimal exploitation scheme, while the western Jilin province was selected as the study area. A numerical simulation model of groundwater flow was established first, and four exploitation wells were set in the Tongyu county and Qian Gorlos county respectively so as to supply water to Daan county. Second, the Latin Hypercube Sampling (LHS) method was used to collect data in the feasible region for input variables. A surrogate model of the numerical simulation model of groundwater flow was developed using the regression kriging method. An optimization model was established to search an optimal groundwater exploitation scheme using the minimum average drawdown of groundwater table and the minimum cost of groundwater exploitation as multi-objective functions.
