(SUS) is proposing for ADB funding, a WTE project in the Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province, People’s Republic of China (PRC) (the WTE Project) as first subproject of the PRC: Eco-Industrial Park Waste-to-Energy Project. As part of its due diligence, ADB requires an environmental and social compliance due diligence of the subproject (Taiyuan WTE) for ADB financing, including a review of key documents, including the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) report and an on-site assessment, to identify past or present concerns related to risks and impacts on the environment, involuntary resettlement and Indigenous Peoples during construction and operation. The objectives of the environmental and social compliance due diligence are to determine whether actions were and are in accordance with the requirements of ADB’s SPS, SUS’s enhanced ESMS, applicable national laws and regulations and good international industry practices, identify if there are outstanding compliance issues and prepare a corrective action plan, if needed. Construction of Taiyuan WTE plant was commenced in September 2017 and is expected to be complete in March 2019. The commissioning is scheduled in June 2019. At the time of the on- site assessment, which was conducted on 11 to 12 December 2018, the construction progress is estimated at 70%.

  • Reconstructing the Evolutionary History of Chinese Dialects
    Reconstructing the Evolutionary History of Chinese Dialects Esra Erdem Institute of Information Systems, Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria [email protected] Feng Wang Department of Chinese Language and Literature, Peking University, Beijing, China [email protected] Evolutionary relations between languages based on their shared characteristics can be represented as a phylogeny --- a tree where the leaves represent the extant languages, the internal vertices represent the ancestral languages, and the edges represent the genetic relations between the languages. On the other hand, languages not only inherit characteristics from their ancestors but also sometimes borrow them from other languages. Such borrowings can be represented by additional non-tree edges, turning a phylogeny into a phylogenetic network. With this motivation, we reconstruct the evolutionary history of languages in two steps: first we compute a plausible phylogeny with a minimal number of incompatible characters, and then we turn this phylogeny into a perfect phylogenetic network, by adding a small number of lateral edges, so that all characters are compatible with the network. For both steps, to formulate the problems and to solve them, we use answer set programming --- a new form of declarative programming. This method has been successfully applied to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Indo-European languages. In the following we summarize its application to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Old Chinese and the following 23 Chinese dialects: Guangzhou, Liancheng, Meixian, Taiwan, Xiamen, Zhangping, Fuzhou, Nanchang, Anyi, Shuangfeng, Changsha, Beijing, Yuci, Taiyuan, Ningxia, Chengdu, Yingshan, Wuhan, Ningbo, Suzhou, Shangai 1, Shangai 2, Wenzhou. We have started with a dataset consisting of 200 lexical characters (the Swadesh wordlist), each with 1--24 states.
