Overview 1.1 Project Background China has included the poverty relief and development into the overall planning of national economy and social development, and meanwhile formulated and implemented the political measures supporting the development of rural areas plagued by poverty. It has given high priority to the investment in poverty relief and regarded this as the major task of the public financial budget and poverty-stricken areas as the major areas for which public finance shall provide endorsement, and has decided to gradually enhance the strength of supporting the poor areas and implementation of poverty relief strategy. Under the lead and supervision of the Poverty Relief Office of the State Council, the Demonstration Pilot Project of the Chinese Poor Areas through Industrial Development initiated by the Foreign Investment Center Organization was officially listed in the 2013-2015 project planning of the National Development and Reform Commission and Ministry of Finance Utilizing the World Bank Loans, and was approved by the State Council. The project is the sixth poverty relief project supported by the World Bank loans that has been approved by the Chinese government, i.e. the Sixth Poverty Relief Project by World Bank Loans. With an overall investment of RMB 1.96 billion, among which, USD 150 million is expected from the world bank loans, The project is aimed to develop the highly efficient, eco-friendly and value-added industries, promote the adjustment of industrial structure in the poor areas to eventually realize the optimization of ecological environment and sustainable increment of famers living with poverty, and meanwhile explore the good mode and method of reducing the poverty via industrial development in the centralized poor areas which are connected geographically. The poverty relief plan makes good use of the World Bank loans to carry out the demonstration pilot program of the Chinese poor areas through industrial development at 27 state-level poverty-stricken counties in three provinces of the western regions (Guizhou, Sichuan and Gansu). In accordance with the relevant environmental protection policies in China as well as the Policy of the World Bank on Safety and Safeguard, it is a must that the project needs to come with an evaluation report on the influence of environment, with a purpose to ensure that the possible negative influence on social environment can be realized and avoided as much as possible, and meanwhile figure out the ways to minimize the unavoidably negative impact. With the entrustment by the Foreign Investment Project Organization Center of the Poverty Development Office of Guizhou Province, the Guangzhou Environmental Protection Engineering Design and Research Institute have undertaken the aforesaid evaluation task. According to the feasibility report on the engineering of the project and other relevant materials, the members from the evaluation team have finished the compilation of the Report From of the Environmental Influence of the Demonstration Pilot Program of the Chinese Poor Areas through Industrial Development Supported by World Bank Loans for the verification and approval of the Department of Environmental Protection of Guizhou Province, World Bank Poverty Relief Team and other associated organizations, and for providing the suggestions
