INTRODUCTION A. Report Purpose and Rationale 1. As defined in the domestic environmental impact assessments (EIAs) and Program Safeguard Systems Assessment (PSSA) for Air Quality Improvement in the Greater Beijing– Tianjin–Hebei Region—Henan Cleaner Fuel Switch Investment Program (the Project) and Project Administration Manual, semi-annual environmental monitoring reports (EMRs) should be prepared by the borrower in order to evaluate and assess project activities and to review progress and ensure the effective implementation of the environmental management plan (EMP) prepared for the subprojects under the Project. 2. The purpose of this 2nd EMR is to document the project and environmental management activities and compliance with the PSSA for this Project from 1 January to 30 June 2021. As the 2nd EMR, it mainly covers the project preparation, implementation and operation phases. 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 the PRC, as well as the policies of the Asian Development Bank (ADB), this report emphasizes: (i) progress made in implementing the EMP, (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. 3. This report is prepared by the YTNE (Yu-Tian New Energy Co. Ltd) with the assistance from the independent external consultant. B. Project Objective and Components 4. The Project will support the transition from coal to cleaner fuel for residential, commercial, and industrial users in selected less-developed counties of Henan Province, thereby reducing a major source of air pollution in the greater Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei region. The outcomes of the program include: (1) 1.2 million customers connected to cleaner fuel; (2) 316.63 million normal cubic meters (Nm3) of gas consumed annually; and (3) private and public funding mobilized after 2022. The program will have four outputs: (i) Output 1: Gas network system expanded. The program will construct natural gas network systems, including 26,880 kilometers of medium and low-pressure small diameter distribution pipelines and 12 gas stations, together supplying 316.63 million Nm3 of gas to 1.2 million customers by 2023. (ii) Output 2: Alternative clean fuel developed. The program will develop 1.7 million cubic meters of annual biogas production capacity using the first utility- scale dry fermentation process plant that makes use of agricultural waste, which is readily available in the target counties. (iii) Output 3: Cleaner fuel use awareness enhanced. The program will help change end-user’s use of traditional energy, and enhance awareness about cleaner fuel use and gas safety. It will give special attention to gender impacts, including improved health outcomes and reduced time spent preparing household energy among women. (iv) Output 4: Institutional and organizational capacity enhancement. The program will support institutional and organizational capacity enhancement by (i) upgrading the information and management system; (ii) strengthening financial and risk management; (iii) unlocking access to commercial financing; and (iv) increasing implementing agency staffing with gender targets, for sustainable overall program implementation towards 2030. 5. The program considers adopting ADB’s result-based lending (RBL) modality. ADB’s RBL program supports the financing of the program for the time- slice of 2019–2023 in the overall investment program for 2019–2030. The Project supports the Government’s objectives as outlined in the Three-Year Action Plan to Win Blue Sky War (2018–2020), issued in June 2018. The Action Plan includes policy actions to accelerate (i) closing of heavily polluting industries; (ii) reduce surplus production capacity in industries; (iii) shift to less air polluting transportation modes; and (iv) build cleaner and less air polluting energy systems to reduce air pollutant emissions by more than 15% for NOx and SO2, and more than 18% for PM2.5 by 2020 as compared with the emissions level in 2015. In 2018 the provincial government also issued the Three-Year Action Plan for Henan Province to Combat Blue Sky War (2018–2020), which targeted to (i) reduce annual average PM2.5 to 58 μg/m3 by 2020; and, (ii) achieve the annual average national air quality category II standard of 35 μg/m3 by 2023. 6. The program scope during 2019–2023 covers (i) expanding gas network systems including distribution pipelines (26,880 km) and gas stations, thereby replacing the old coal burning facilities; (ii) developing 17 million Nm3 annual production capacity of pilot biogas plant facilities, which can be sourced from wastes from agricultural crops; (iii) strengthening the institutional capacity of Zhongyuan Yuzi Investment Holding Group (ZYIG) and China Tian Lun Gas Holding Limited (CTLG) to raise the additional funding needed to complete the cleaner fuel switch investment program by 2030; and (iv) enhancing awareness about safety of cleaner fuel use and indoor air pollution reduction among the gas end users, with special attention to gender impacts. The project is aligned with national and provincial development plans and the Asian Development Bank’s (ADB) country partnership strategy for the PRC, 2016–2020.

  • Transmission of Han Pictorial Motifs Into the Western Periphery: Fuxi and Nüwa in the Wei-Jin Mural Tombs in the Hexi Corridor*8
    DOI: 10.4312/as.2019.7.2.47-86 47 Transmission of Han Pictorial Motifs into the Western Periphery: Fuxi and Nüwa in the Wei-Jin Mural Tombs in the Hexi Corridor*8 ∗∗ Nataša VAMPELJ SUHADOLNIK 9 Abstract This paper examines the ways in which Fuxi and Nüwa were depicted inside the mu- ral tombs of the Wei-Jin dynasties along the Hexi Corridor as compared to their Han counterparts from the Central Plains. Pursuing typological, stylistic, and iconographic approaches, it investigates how the western periphery inherited the knowledge of the divine pair and further discusses the transition of the iconographic and stylistic design of both deities from the Han (206 BCE–220 CE) to the Wei and Western Jin dynasties (220–316). Furthermore, examining the origins of the migrants on the basis of historical records, it also attempts to discuss the possible regional connections and migration from different parts of the Chinese central territory to the western periphery. On the basis of these approaches, it reveals that the depiction of Fuxi and Nüwa in Gansu area was modelled on the Shandong regional pattern and further evolved into a unique pattern formed by an iconographic conglomeration of all attributes and other physical characteristics. Accordingly, the Shandong region style not only spread to surrounding areas in the central Chinese territory but even to the more remote border regions, where it became the model for funerary art motifs. Key Words: Fuxi, Nüwa, the sun, the moon, a try square, a pair of compasses, Han Dynasty, Wei-Jin period, Shandong, migration Prenos slikovnih motivov na zahodno periferijo: Fuxi in Nüwa v grobnicah s poslikavo iz obdobja Wei Jin na območju prehoda Hexi Izvleček Pričujoči prispevek v primerjalni perspektivi obravnava upodobitev Fuxija in Nüwe v grobnicah s poslikavo iz časa dinastij Wei in Zahodni Jin (220–316) iz province Gansu * The author acknowledges the financial support of the Slovenian Research Agency (ARRS) in the framework of the research core funding Asian languages and Cultures (P6-0243).

Abstract. Hetu and Luoshu, the cultural heritages that reflect ancient Chinese wisdom, are the origins of Heluo culture. The paper will focus on the present study of Hetu and Luoshu and give a prospection of the study trend by combing and analyzing related texts and documentaries. Hetu and Luoshu, or the Yellow River trigrams and the Luo River trigrams, also the first mystical images in Chinese graphemic culture, are regarded as the origin of Heluo culture and feature prominently in the history of Chinese culture and Chinese thoughts. The Legend of Hetu and Luoshu, which was included in the fourth group of National Intangible Cultural Heritage List in 2014, is the fountainhead of Chinese nation and witness the long history of Chinese civilization. A Retrospect of the Study of Hetu and Luoshu in China Hetu and Luoshu are the origins of Heluo culture, Chinese yin and yang and five elements and reflect ancient Chinese wisdom. Honored as the Rubik’s Cube of the universe, Hetu and Luoshu are also recorded in Chinese Classics such as Shang Shu, The Zhou Book of Change, The Book of Rites and The Analects. However, as a study subject, the loss of the text of Hetu and Luoshu results in the present situation that all commentaries and studies are the furthermost of the original text and bear significant interpretations.
