Industrial construction is put in the first place while urban construction lags behind relatively in the past. In order to build Panzhihua City into a modernized metropolis, the urban construction process must be accelerated and the urban environment, improved. The environment improvement project which World Bank loan will be used is just to meet the demand of Panzhihua City development. The whole project consists of riverbank slope protection, upper section of Binjiang Road, interceptor and trunk sewers, scenery project and last section of Bingren Road. The four subsections are named as environmental improvement project along the Jinsha River. The gross investment budget of the project is RMB 1220.65 millions Yuan (nearly $ 147.42 millions), and the budget of RMB 577.94 millions Yuan (nearly $ 69.80 millions) will be from the World Bank loan. The construction of the project will improve the urban environment infstructure of Panzhihua City and improve the landscape along the Jinsha River. It can also provide an essential basis for continued urban development and living environment, and lay a solid foundation for turning Panzhihua into a beautiful city. At the same time, it can improve traffic condition of the city, irmpove the urban zoning, and broaden the developmental space and development potential of the city. This project is in accordance with the national policies. Based on the relevant laws, rules, policies and the specifications on environmental protection by China National Environment Protection Agency (NEPA) and the stipulations in the Guideline of Environmental Assessment by the World Bank, the environment impact assessment of the project should be carried out. For this reason, Chengdu Hydropower Investigation Design & Research Institute (CHIDI) of China Hydropower Engineering Consultant Group Corporation (CHECC) was commissioned to undertake the EIA of the proposed project by Panzhihua Urban Construction Investment Management Co., Ltd. Based on the analysis of project design files, the EA team carried out an project site survey and collected materials related to the project. According to "Technology Guideline of Environmental Impact Assessment", "Environmental Impact Assessment Specifications of Highway Construction Project" and the World Bank related environment assessment business policies, the project environmental impact pre-assessment report was completed in May, 2005, and submitted to the World Bank delegation for pre-assessment of the project. At the same time, "Environmental Impact Assessment Outline of the Environment Improvement Project in Panzhihua City" was completed. At the request of Sichuan Environment Protection Bureau (SEPB), Sichuan Environmental Engineering Evaluation Center hosted the technical appraisal meeting of the outline on May 18, 2005 in Chengdu. According to opinions and suggestions of the attending representatives and experts, the final edition of the outline was completed in August 2005.. According to the document issued by SEPB and opinions and requirements of the World Bank, the EA team carried out several rounds of site survey and investigation, and entrusted Panzhihua Environment Monitoring Station to monitor the acoustic environment and substrate sludge in the The Jinsha River River supplementally. On the basis of these work, "Environmental Impact Assessment Report of Environment Improvement Project in Panzhihua City" was prepared in October 2005 to submit to the World Bank for project appraisement, and to SEPB for examination. The compilation of this report have obtained the supports from Panzhihua Urban Construction Investment Management Co., Ltd, related municipal departments of Panzhihua City government, Chengdu Municipal Engineering Design & Research Institute, and Southwest Jiaotong University, as well as guidance from from the World Bank experts.

In the Sichuan province, livelihood security and social development are particularly sensitive to changes in the sloping farmland, due to the region’s large portion of hilly territory and its over-dense population. In this study, we focused on spatiotemporal change of the sloping farmland and its driving forces in the Sichuan province. Sloping farmland areas were extracted from geographic data from digital elevation model (DEM) and land use maps, and the driving forces of the spatiotemporal change were analyzed using a principal component analysis (PCA). The results indicated that, from 2000 to 2015, sloping farmland decreased by 3263 km2 in the Sichuan province. The area of gently sloping farmland (<10◦) decreased dramatically by 1467 km2, especially in the capital city, Chengdu, and its surrounding areas.

  • RESEARCH Eastern Margin of Tibet Supplies Most Sediment to The
    RESEARCH Eastern margin of Tibet supplies most sediment to the Yangtze River Gregory K. Wissink* and Gregory D. Hoke DEPARTMENT OF EARTH SCIENCES, SYRACUSE UNIVERSITY, 204 HEROY GEOLOGY LABORATORY, SYRACUSE, NEW YORK 13244, USA ABSTRACT Zircon provenance studies of modern and ancient fluvial systems help reveal the relative contributions and importance of upstream sediment sources. A 2014 study of detrital zircon U-Pb age distributions from the Yangtze River (China) and its tributaries proposed a strong anthropo- genic control on sediment flux. Those data, along with other data from the region, were reanalyzed using multiple detrital zircon U-Pb age distribution comparison techniques and a distribution-mixing model to construct an improved and quantitative view of provenance. The variability in the Yangtze River trunk stream U-Pb age distributions is evaluated with respect to trunk-to-trunk stream comparisons, trunk-to- tributary comparisons, and in mixture models that consider tributary and bedrock contributions, the latter using a comprehensive compilation of bedrock source terranes. Uniformity in the zircon age distribution of the Yangtze River trunk stream is established in the upper reaches, downstream of the first bend, and maintained by the left-bank tributaries to its outlet. Whether considering the bedrock source terranes or only the modern Yangtze River sediments, the major source of sediments contributing to Yangtze River is clearly the eastern edge of the Tibetan Plateau (e.g., Songpan Ganze complex, Longmenshan Range), where rock uplift rates are high. The purported increase in anthropo- genic impact on sediment yield in the lowlands, at least as viewed through detrital zircon age distributions, is insignificant.

Ⅰ. The Main Characteristics of the Urbanization Development in Sichuan The reflection of urbanization in essence is from the industry cluster to population cluster., we tend to divided the process of urbanization into four stages, 1949-1978 is the first stage, 1978 – 1990 is the second stage, 1990 -2000 is the third stage, After the year of 2000 is the fourth stage. In view the particularities of the first phase, this paper researches mainly after three stages. 1. The level of the urbanization enhances unceasingly. With the reform and opening-up and the rapid development of social economy, the urbanization in Sichuan has significant achievements. The average annual growth of the level of urbanization is 0.8 percent in the twelve years of the second stage. The average annual growth in the third stage and the four stages is individually 0.5 and 1.3 percentage. The average annual growth of urbanization in the fourth stage is faster respectively 0.5 and 0.8 percent than the previous two stages which reflects obviously the rapid rise of the urbanization after the fourth stage in Sichuan.

  • Planning and Construction History of Panzhihua During the Three-Front Strategy Period: Backgrounds, Process, and Mechanism
    PLANNING AND CONSTRUCTION HISTORY OF PANZHIHUA DURING THE THREE-FRONT STRATEGY PERIOD: BACKGROUNDS, PROCESS, AND MECHANISM BIN XU, LINXING XIAO Address: School of Architecture, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China, 100084. e-mail: [email protected] ABSTRACT: The western region, which contains 60% of the nation’s land and also is rich in natural resources, always holds an important strategic position in China. In the Republican period, Sun Yat-sen proposed the “National Development Strategy” aiming to bring China into the world capitalism system based on the development of the western region. During the War of Resistance against Japan, key industries were forced to move into inland China. Therefore the Republican government determined the strategy concentrating on the development of Sichuan and Chongqing. After the establishment of the People’s Republic of China, Mao’s government accepted the aid from the Soviet Union. During the “First Five-year Plan”, 156 key projects were carried out in the northwestern region close to the Soviet Union. That was the first time the P.R.C government changed the industrial layout from eastern coastal region to western inland areas. Later in the 1960’s, both northern and southern borders of China were under the military threats from the Soviet Union, the U.S.A, Indian and Vietnam. In that situation, the government adopted a regional policy called the “Three-Front Strategy”. Its aim is to render China’s fledgling industries immune from attack by hiding them “in the mountains, in dispersion and in caves” of the western regions, such as Sichuan, Yunnan and Guizhou provinces.
