HISTORY AND CORPORATE STRUCTURE HISTORY OF OUR COMPANY Introduction Our business can be traced back to 1958 when our predecessor, an enterprise owned by the whole people* (全民所有制企業) named Luzhou City Tap Water Plant* (瀘州市自來水廠), was established. Luzhou City Tap Water Plant* (瀘州市自來水廠) was subsequently renamed as Luzhou City Tap Water Company* (瀘州市自來水公司) and then as Luzhou City Tap Water Main Company* (瀘州市自來水總公司).

Abstract. Promoting the construction of characteristic towns under the background of new urbanization is an important way for my country to break the bottleneck of economic development and realize economic transformation and upgrading. In recent years, although the construction of characteristic towns in Sichuan Province has achieved remarkable results and a large number, especially tourist and leisure characteristic towns accounted for the largest proportion, they still face urgent problems such as avoiding redundant construction, achieving scientific development, and overall planning. This study takes 20 cultural tourism characteristic towns selected by the first batch of Sichuan Province as the research object, combined with field research and tourist questionnaire surveys, and screened out relevant influencing factors of characteristic towns from different aspects such as transportation, economy, industry, ecology, historical and cultural heritage. Analyze the correlation with the development level of characteristic towns in order to find out the key factors affecting the development of characteristic towns of this type, provide a policy basis for the scientific development and overall planning of reserve characteristic towns in our province, and contribute to the construction of new urbanization And provide advice and suggestions on the development of tourism industry in our province.

  • 2019 Gustav Lindenthal Medal Application the First Hejiang
    2019 Gustav Lindenthal Medal Application The First Hejiang Yangtze River Bridge - The World’s Largest CFST Arch Bridge The First Hejiang Yangtze River Bridge(Bosideng Bridge) is located in County Hejiang, Luzhou City, China. Hejiang is an un-developed place with urgent demand for transportation. In order to promote its development, Luzhou-Chongqing Expressway was built, which cross the Yangtze River in Hejiang County. According to navigation requirements, the main span should not be less than 500 m. Engineers compared possible bridge types, they are: concrete cable-stayed bridge, steel truss suspension bridge, steel box arch bridge, and Concrete Filled Steel Tube (CFST) truss arch bridge. Finally, the owner chose CFST arch bridge with the least material consumption, the lowest cost and the shortest construction period. The First Hejiang Yangtze River Bridge is 841m long, 4 lanes in two directions, 28m wide and design speed at 120Km/h. It was opened to traffic in October 2017 with cost about 40 million US dollars. The span of The First Hejiang Yangtze River Bridge is 530m and the main arch reaches a height of 120m.The arch is a truss rib with rectangular arrangement of CFST structure. The main girder is composed of steel grid beam and steel-concrete composite deck, connecting arch with suspension cable. The main arch steel tube was installed by cable hoisting and cable-stayed suspension method. The arch rib installation segment is 45m long & 16m high. Its lifting weight is more than 200t, lifting height is 140m and the maximum buckle cantilever is 265m, which has high installation risk and difficult construction control.

  • Genetic Diversity in Population of Largemouth Bronze Gudgeon (Coreius Guichenoti Sauvage Et Dabry) from Yangtze River Determined by Microsatellite DNA Analysis
    Genes Genet. Syst. (2010) 85, p. 351–357 Genetic diversity in population of largemouth bronze gudgeon (Coreius guichenoti Sauvage et Dabry) from Yangtze River determined by microsatellite DNA analysis Futie Zhang and Deqing Tan* Key Laboratory of Aquatic Biodiversity and Conservation of Chinese Academy of Sciences, Institute of Hydrobiology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Wuhan 430072, China (Received 25 August 2010, accepted 23 November 2010) Largemouth bronze gudgeon (Coreius guichenoti Sauvage et Dabry 1874), one of the endemic fish species in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River in China, is a benthic and potamodromous fish that is typically found in rivers with torrential flow. Three dams in the Yangtze River, Ertan Dam, Three Gorges Dam and Gezhouba Dam, may have had vital impacts on the habitat and spawning behaviors of largemouth bronze gudgeon, and could ultimately threaten the survival of this fish. We studied the population genetic diversity of C. guichenoti samples col- lected at seven sites (JH, GLP, BX, HJ, MD, SDP and XB) within the Yangtze River and one of its tributaries, the Yalong River. Genetic diversity patterns were deter- mined by analyzing genetic data from 11 polymorphic microsatellite loci. A high genetic diversity among these largemouth bronze gudgeon populations was indi- cated by the number of microsatellite alleles (A) and the expected heterozygosity (HE). No significant population variation occurred among GLP, BX, HJ and MD populations, but dramatic population differentiation was observed among JH and XB, two dam-blocked populations, versus other populations. Tests for bottlenecks did not indicate recent dramatic population declines and concurrent losses of genetic diversity in any largemouth bronze gudgeon populations.

Methodology: The improved RAPD analysis was performed in nine samples by prolonging the ramp time from annealing to extension by using ten RAPD primers, out of twelve, which were selected randomly to analyze the genetic characteristics. Results: The polymorphism of the nine C. album was 86%, and the similarity coefficient ranged from 0.65 to 1.00. Among the similarity coefficients of the cultivars, the similarity coefficient of sample No. 2, 3 and 6 was highest (1.0), while the similarity coefficient of sample No. 5 and 7 was 0.98, which indicated that they are the same cultivars.

China. E-mail: [email protected] 2Chengdu Institute of Biology, Chinese Academy of Science, Chengdu 610041, P.R. China. Abstract A new genus and species of Asian green pitviper is described from Southwest China based on two female specimens. A new DNA phylogeny recovers the two specimens of the new species as a well-supported clade that is sister group to all sampled representatives of the genera Viridovipera and Cryptelytrops. The new genus is distinguished from other pitviper genera by a combination of morphological characters, including the absence of a lateral stripe, large body size, and deep red eye in adult females. Morphologically the new species is superficially most similar to species of Popeia in body di- mension and scalation, but is genetically extremely distinct. The new genus/species is currently known only from south Sichuan, where it was found at about 1000 m above sea level in less disturbed evergreen rainforest. Key words: southeast Asia, DNA, phylogeny, snakes, taxonomy Introduction One of the key tasks in systematics is to identify and describe new taxa, infer their systematic position, and explore their relationships with related taxa.

Rosen Received: 8 December 2015; Accepted: 25 February 2016; Published: 29 February 2016 Abstract: An interprovincial boundary region is a new subject of economic disparity study in China. This study explored the multi-scale spatio-temporal dynamics of economic development from 1995 to 2010 in the interprovincial boundary region of Sichuan-Yunnan-Guizhou, a mountain area and also the junction area of Tibetan Plateau, Hengduan Mountain, Yungui Plateau and Sichuan Basin in southwestern China. A quantitative study on county GDP per capita for different scales of administrative regions was conducted using the Theil index, Markov chains, a geographic information system and exploratory spatial data analysis. Results indicated that the economic disparity was closely related with geographical unit scale in the study area: the smaller the unit, the bigger the disparity, and the regional inequality gradually weakened over time. Moreover, significant positive spatial autocorrelation and clustering of economic development were also found. The spatial pattern of economic development presented approximate circle structure with two cores in the southwest and northeast. The Panxi region in the southwest core and a part of Hilly Sichuan Basin in the northeast core were considered to be hot spots of economic development.
