CONSOLIDATED REPORT ON ENVIRONMENT EVALUATION

CHINA COASTAL RESOURCE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT PROJECT

(NEW SUB-PROJECTS)

The China Coastal Resource Sustainable Development Project (CHA-4322 ) became effective in December, 1998. The project was originally spread in the coastal provinces including Liaoning, Shandong, Jiangsu and Fujian and its Xiamen Municipality. During MTR in 2002, some endusers applied for a cut of their borrowing from the Bank, including U.S.$ 13 million from Fujian, U.S.$ 7.69 million from Jiangsu and US$ 5.84 million to be reallocated in Shandong, totaling at US$ 26.53 million. With consensus among MOF, MOA and the Bank, it has been agreed that the withdrawn borrowing will be reallocated to new borrowers for the same purpose of the project, with emphasis on coastal zone management and aquatic product processing while taking into consideration small sized aquiculture. In accordance with the SAR and legal agreement of the project, the Bank has mobilized specialists to conduct the pre-appraisal and appraisal together with local experts on the newly proposed sub-projects in Zhejiang, Guangxi, Hebei and Shandong in the respect of socio-eco environment, processing, institutional strengthening and finance. Now all the newly proposed sub-projects have finished their financial guarantee, feasibility study and environment evaluation.

A. Briefing on new sub-project area

1. Xiangshan County, Zhejiang Province

Xiangshan County is located at the center of Chinas east coast with a land territory of 1,175 square Kms and a coastal area of 5,335 square Kms. Its total population is 534,000. The county has a coastal line of 800 Kms. and 600 islands. Major produces from the sea include Hexagrams Lagocephalus, hairtails, butterfish and cuttlefish, while aquiculture largely raises shrimps, oysters, kelp, laver and razor clam. The county is one of China important fishery producers. The volcanic rocks of the Jurassic system dominate Land formation in this county. Pines, shrubs, bushes and grasses cover mountains and hills. The county has a mild and humid climate due to the sub-tropical monsoon influence, with 4 distinct seasons and plenty rainfall. Natural calamities include frost and typhoon. Due to over-catching by the increasing number of fishing boats, the coastal fishery resources are diminishing sharply in recent years. The governments have thus encouraged the fishermen to resettle at the coast for aquiculture and aquatic processing since 1998. Since 2000, the governments have allocated earmarked funds to support the resettlement program every year. To supplement the government effort, the Bank has agreed that the county participates the China Costal Resource Sustainable Development Project. It is expected that such participation will create 1,200 job opportunities with 80 % for women.

The proposed sub-projects, namely, the aquatic processing projects and the aquatic wholesale market are to be located in the industrial development zone of Shipu Town. According to the government rule for sewage discharging, each individual aquatic processing plant and wholesale enterprise has built up its independent sewage treatment facility. The development zone is now building a new sewage treatment plant. It is expected to complete the civil construction by July and to be put into operation by the end of October this year. The newly built plant has a daily capacity of 5,000 tons. The total cost of RMB.9.95 million yuan is entirely borne by the local government Shipu Town is a large fishing port. The town is 36 Km.s away from the county seat. It has a population of 70,000, of whom 40,000 are engaged in fishery production. Of its annual gross output value of RMB. 3.3 billion yuan, the fishery accounts for 1.2 billion yuan. It is also important in terms of trading and fishing boat visit by Taiwan. The town has passenger boats linking with Shanghai, Ningbo and Wenzhou. Its development zone has good access to transportation, communication, post and telecommunication, power and water supply, sewage piping network and living quarter communities. The town has an annual averaged rainfall of 1,392 mm, sunshine of 2,025 hours, frost-free period of 296 days, with the relative humidity of 80% and wind velocity of 5.5 m/sec.. Typhoon is the most dangerous calamity. However, the risk of the town by typhoon is effectively relieved due to the windbreak effect of its 600 islands.

1.1 Coastal Zone Management Center

This sub-project is aimed at the coastal ecologic protection. By completion of the project, it is possible to detect the changes of the coastal fishery resources at the East China Sea with the county itself in particular, for the purpose of fishing programming and protection and management of the fishery resources. It is also possible to monitor and evaluate the nearby inshore and offshore ecologic environment quality, for the purpose of marine environment protection. In addition, emergence of fish diseases will also be monitored to help aquatic product quality and safety control. The training program will also help enhancement of the research and management capability of the staff and participation into environment protection by both the local government and people.

The center is to be built at the county seat proper with a total area of 8,907 square m.s, of which the building space accounts for 4,906 m2. The main building is a 6-stored structure. The floor space will be allocated to the marine environment advisory section, aquatic disease control center, aquatic quality testing center, environment protection training center, supervision center for marine environment protection communication network, and laboratories. The center is also to be equipped with a patrol and inspection boat. The project is to be implemented by the Marine and Fishery Bureau of the County Government at the cost of the county government.

1.2 Marine Ecologic Natural Reserve at the Jiushan Island

This sub-project is aimed at protection of the marine ecologic environment. Jiushan Island is formed by 76 reefs with a total area of 7.3 square Km.s, with the main island of 4 square Km.s. Very few people is living there. Thanks to the warm current from Taiwan and the coastal water systems, the marine area around the island has abundant feeding organisms. Thus it becomes a favorable ground for many marine living beings. The survey reveals that within the reserve of the island there exist 54 species of fishes, 25 species of shellfishes and 7 species of mollusca. In addition, there also exist a great number of precious species of plants, flowers, tea trees and medicinal herbs and 8 species of birds within the national and provincial protection category. To protect from destruction by human activities, it is of urgent need to establish the proposed reserve. Within the reserve area, it is planned to foster 2 publicity boards, 20 floating posters, 20 warning boards and an observatory platform with fencing. A small dock is to be built for the patrol boat. A management station is also to be built with necessary communication and warning equipment. The project is to be implemented by the Marine and Fishery Bureau of the County Government at the cost of the county government.

The green coverage of 2000 square m.s and roads of 3,237 square m.s will be built. The project is designed to have an annual capacity of processing 980 tons of fishes and 620 tons of headless shrimps.

1.6 Chaoxing Marine Bio-product Co. Ltd

The company is located at Shipu Town. The proposed project is to be built in the industrial development zone of the town to produce kelp meal, iodine reinforced soy sauce and kelp fillet, with the cultured kelp as the raw materials. The annual production includes 3,000 tons of kelp meal, 1,000 tons of iodine-reinforced soy sauce and 2,000 tons of kelp fillet. The project is to build a floor space of 12,541 square m.s ( of which processing workshops accounts for 5,280 square m.s, cold storage for 5,412 square m.s, office building with laboratories for 960 square m.s, and dormitories for 889 square m.s), a green coverage of 11,954 square m.s and roads of 8055 square m.s. Xiangshan County has 330,000 hectares of shallow beaches with a depth of less than 20 m.s which favor aquiculture with kelp in particular. The county has a history of kelp culture for more than 30 years and the local people are quite good at it. With financial support by the Bank, the project is able to absorb a great number of fishermen who are willing to withdraw from fishing to aquiculture.

1.7 Zhejiang Aquatic Shopping Center ( Wholesale Market )

Xiangshan County now has a total aquiculture area of 16,000 hectares, which produce about 90,000 to 100,000 tons at a value of RMB. 1.1 billion yuan per annum. More than 50 varieties of products are yielded from aquiculture including laver, hexagrammos lagocelphalus, perch, crabs, eel, grouper and tilapia. 6 culture bases have been established by cage culture, pond culture with marine water and laver culture. Some 20,000 people are engaged in aquiculture. Trading volume by wholesale in 2002 amounted to 290,000 tons at a value of RMB. 1.3 billion yuan. The proposed wholesale market is to be built in the Taiwan Oriented Trading Zone at Shipu Town. The market will occupy 92,000 square m.s with a building space of 42,5000 square m.s ( including the general trading hall of 7,000 square m.s, the open type trading hall of 10,5000 square m.s, the living and perishable product trading zone of 11,000 square m.s, negotiation rooms of 7,000 square m.s, parking ground of 2,000 square m.s, 4 trading wharves with a capacity of 1,000 tons each, and 7 boats).

Its annual turnover is designed to be 46,000 tons at a value of RMB.911 million yuan. In addition, the project has an ice making capacity of 30,000 tons per annum.

2. Penglai Municipality of Shandong Province

Shandong is one of the original provinces that participated the project at the very beginning. At the SAR stage, the sub-project in this province was designated to be located in Weihai Municipality. Due to some reasons, the provincial Department of Finance, Department of Marine and Fisheries and Commission of Planning have subsequently decided to enlend the Bank loan to Penglai Municipality instead.

The municipality has 34 fishery villages with more than 50,000 permanent fishery workers. It has cultured 20,000 hectares of shallow sea and 333 hectares around the reefs. Aquiculture under confinement reaches to 60,000 square m.s. The municipality has 1,500 fishing boats with more than 80,000 h.p. in total, of which the majority are small boats which are just able for inshore fishing. The Penglai Fishing Harbor is a large harbor in North China where fishing boats from South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Southeast Asia are often seen. Penglai is also an important trading zone with South Korea and Taiwan. Due to over fishing, the municipality is also facing the problem of diminishing fishery resources which need to be protected. Moreover, contamination by the industrial, agricultural and domestic sources needs to be controlled; the monitoring and evaluation system needs to be established; and training and education of protection on marine resources and eco-environment need to be strengthened.

2.1 Coastal Zone Management Center

Marine resource diminishing by over fishing and human destructive activities has drawn serious attention of the municipal government. In order to develop and utilize the fishery resources in a rational way, and provide an effective protection on the marine resources and environment to ensure the sustainable development of fishery industry, it is decided to set up a management center for resource protection and environment monitoring with the Band fund. The coastal zone management center has the main tasks as to carry out monitoring , survey and evaluation on coastal fishery resources; to make plans and programs for fishing and aquiculture in a scientific way; and to conduct training and education on resource and environment protection in a planned way. The project is to be built close to the fishing harbor at Beigou Town, about 7 Km.s away from or 5 minutes drive to the city proper. The center is to have a floor space of 2,900 square m.s and a garage of 600 square m.s. The building will be divided into the exhibition hall for protection on marine living beings, laboratories, monitoring rooms, offices and training classrooms. The center will be equipped with marine water testing instruments and communication facilities. Potential pollutants include domestic sewage, solid refuses and discharged water from laboratories.

2.2 Jinglu Fishery Co. Ltd

The company is the largest aquatic processing enterprise in the municipality. It has gone through HACCP accreditation. At present, 90 % of its products are exported to South Korea, Taiwan, Japan, Europe and U.S.. The proposed project is to build 9,504 square m.s, of which 4,500 square m.s for processing workshops, 1,734 square m.s for cold storage, 1,110 square m.s for sewage treatment and 2,160 square m.s for warehouse. The project is to process 1,500 tons of aquatic products per annum, of which flavoring shells account for 1,000 tons and oyster for 500 tons.

2.3 Sewage Treatment Plant at Beigou Town

The plant is about 10 Km.s from Penglai city, located at Beigou which administrate 80 villages with a total population of 60,000 and a total territory of 190 square Km.s. The proposed project is a small sewage treatment plant with an annual capacity of 10,000 tons. The town does not have a sewage treatment plant yet although it has 200 medium and small sized enterprises at the side close to the Penglai city proper. Expanding of aquiculture results in an increasing number of processing plants. Businessmen from Japan and South Korea import the finished products from the cultured raw materials which are largely processed by small sized plants, who, in order to make remarkable profits, always build the processing facilities without sewage treatment. It has become aware that pollution has affected the environment, the tourist attraction and the aquiculture. The Penglai Municipal Government has made up its mind to control pollution by the processing industry. It is then decided to build a sewage treatment plant for the proposed project and the adjacent processing plants with the Bank fund. More sewage plants will be set up following this example. The plant, with an annual capacity of 10,000 tons, is to occupy 9,900 square m.s and have a green coverage of 3,500 square m.s.

2.4 Sewage Treatment Plant at Chaoshui Town

The proposed project is a small sewage treatment plant with an annual capacity of 10,000 tons. The plant is to occupy 20,000 square m.s and have 3,500 square m.s of green coverage.

3. Fangchenggang Municipality of Guangxi

Fangchenggang Municipality is located at Chinas southwest coastal end. It is facing the North Bay and neighbors with Vietnam. Its total population is 780,000 and total territory of 6,181 square Km.s with a city proper of 17 square Km.s. Guangxi is a large agricultural producer and its southern part is particularly important for sugar cane, fruit trees and paddy rice. The North Bay is a traditional fishing ground. Due to the signing of the fishing agreement between Chinese and Vietnamese governments, the Chinese fishermen have to retreat from a part of the bay where they used to fish. To offset the affection on the fishermens livelihood, the Chinese government has set up a resettlement program for those fishermen who are to shift from fishing to aquiculture. The proposed sub-projects are a part of the mentioned efforts. MOA and local government will provide financial support to the participating fishermen.

3.1 Coastal Zone Management Center

The center is aimed at protection on marine resources and environment. Fangchenggang has a coastal line of 584 Km.s, which need to be monitored and protected. The government has decided to set up a center to monitor the coastal resources, protect the environment and control the fish diseases with the Bank fund. The project is to be implemented by the municipal government with joint participation of the fishery bureau and the marine administration that are both involved in marine resource monitoring and environment protection. The center is to be built at the newly established city proper with a total area of 6,000 square m.s including 2,000 square m.s of green coverage. The main building will be used for fish disease control center, marine planning section, offices and technical training rooms.

3.2 Yuanyi Aquatic Product Processing Plant

No existing processing plant conforms to HACCP or European standards. The proposed project aims at the largest processing plant with HACCP standard in the municipality. The plant is to be built in the municipal industrial and economic development zone. It is to occupy 30,000 square m.s with a green coverage of 4,200 square m.s. It has an annual processing capacity of 6,500 tons and an ice making capacity of 9,000 tons. The project is to employ more than 200 fishermen retired from banned fishing. At the busy season, the total employment will exceed 1,000 workers. 80 % of the job opportunities will be offered to women due to the labor-intensive nature of the process. Guangxi is the ethnic concentration region although Fangchenggang has few ethnic groups. The proposed project has made the plan to employ ethnic people of the Zhuang Nationality in first priority. Part of the processed products will be exported to Hong Kong, South Korea, Japan and Southeast Asia but the majority is to be supplied to the domestic markets such as Guizhou, Guangzhou, Nanning and Shanghai. The plant management believes there is no much difference between export and domestic sales in terms of profitability and market access.

3.3 Marine Fish Hatchery

The hatchery is to be built at Qisha Town, about 31 Km.s away from Fangchenggang city proper. It is surrounded by the sea at 3 sides, with a total area of 167,000 square m.s including a green coverage of 3,000 square m.s. The hatchery is to produce quality figurines including 800,000 heads of groupers and 7.7 million heads of snappers per annum. Qisha is the second largest fishing harbor in Guangxi. Its annual trading turnover amounts to 170,000 tons. Aquatic trading and processing forms the pillar of the local economy. Qisha harbor has close linkage with Vietnamese fishing boats. About 60% of the fishing boats trading in the harbor is from Vietnam while a few is from Taiwan and Indonesia.

3.4 Marine Cage Culture

Fangchenggang is facing at the North Bay. With few industrial operations, the natural environment is well preserved. At present, there is no deep marine cage culture yet. The proposed project is to be located at the coastal side of Tiantangpo Township by building 20 cages to be laid at the depth of 10 15 m.s. Each cage has a diameter of 13 15 m.s with a depth of 6 8 m.s. The site has the sub-tropical marine water features with an annual averaged temperature of 20 degrees centigrade. Tide current is of the normal whole day type with a fluctuation of 2.2 m.s. Water quality is in conformity of Grade I of the National Standard.

4. Tangshan Municipality of Hebei Province

Tangshan Municipality, located at the northern part of the Bohai Sea, is Hebeis important fishery producer. It has a coastal line of 210 Km.s. Tangshan is also an important port for shipment of coal, iron and steel. In tradition, Tangshan is an important shells supplier to South Korea and Japan. In recent years, Tangshan has become the pioneer in culture of shrimps combined with jellyfish.

4.1 Shells Hatchery

The proposed project is to be built in Ruannan County, about 30 Km.s from the Tangshan city proper. The county located at the northern part of the Bohai Sea is an important fishery producer of Hebei Province. It has highways linking with both Beijing and Tianjing. With a coastal line of 80 Km.s, the county administrates 21 fishing villages with a total population of 50,000 including a total labor force of 15,000 to operate more than 1,000 fishing boats. The county is a traditional shells producer and exporter. The hatchery is to be built at the coastal beaches about 3 Km.s away from the Bohai Sea.

4.2 Coastal Zone Management Center

The center is to be built in Kaiping District of the municipality, which administrates 6 townships with a total population of 260,000 including 120,000 engaged in agriculture. Along the 210 Km.s coastal line, there exist operations of shipbuilding, iron and steel making, chemical industry, coal shipment and tourism. The municipal marine and fishery bureau has done a great deal on marine environment protection and executes quite rigid and strict rule when endorsing use of marine waters. However, following the regional economic development, much more serious attention must be paid to the protection on marine environment and coastal resources.

Refrigerating agent ( liquid ammonia ) is a dangerous chemical, which is to be shipped and stored subject to the national rule on control of shipment and storage of dangerous chemicals. There exists mangrove at the nearby coast. Study by the Guangxi Mangrove Research Institute has proven that mangrove contributes to control of water and soil contamination. Discharged waste water up to the national standard is not harmful but provides nutrients such as N and P to mangrove. However, attention will be paid to monitoring the growth situation of mangrove in accordance with experts advice.

3.3 Marine Fish Hatchery

Of its total cost of RMB.16.23 million yuan, the Bank funding accounts for U.S.$ 748,000 and cost on environment protection for RMB.660,000 yuan. Major potential pollutants are: dust and noise during construction of civil works; during normal operation, there is water with organic nitrogen an organic phosphate discharged from the hatchery, together with feed residue, fish manure and contaminated mud; water pumps and boilers make noises and displace waste air and coal residue; and in addition, it also produces domestic garbage.

Measures to be undertaken: Noise and dust are to be controlled during construction according to pertinent national rules and ground be promptly paved or green covered. Domestic solid refuses are to be collected for unified disposal by sanitation departments. Boilers are to consume anthracite coals and smoke is displaced through high chimney after dust removal. Drugs and chemicals are to be subject to strict control to minimize figurine and water contamination. Waste water is discharged in batches after sedimentation, degradation and sterilization in aseptic ponds. Mud from sedimentation is to be dehydrated and used for brick making or road building. Low noise making mechanical equipment is to be employed or silencers are to be installed.

3.4 Marine Cage Culture

The project cost RMB.6.97 million yuan in total of which the Bank funding accounts for US$ 393,000. In line with the national rules, application of nation-wide forbidden drugs is strictly prohibited at any time during operation. It is to exercise a regular test and inspection system on marine water and fishes. Feeds are to be analyzed by sampling to prevent contamination by poor quality feeds. The site sees fast tide current at a velocity of 80 Cm./sec. Under normal situation, water can be dispersed to 25 Km.s away in 10 hours. Therefore it is hard to cause contamination to surrounding marine environment by feed residue or fish manure. However, it is recommended by aquatic experts that cages should be moved from time to time and foreign attachments on cages be cleared when possible.

3. Tangshan Municipality of Hebei Province

4.1 Costal Zone Management Center

Of its total cost of RMB.25 million yuan, the Bank funding accounts for U.S.$ 1.12 million and cost on environment for RMB.200,000 yuan. The project itself is aimed at environment protection which brings forth little impact on surrounding environment, except a few amount of waste water, waste air, domestic garbage and sewage and dust and noise during construction need to be properly disposed. It is to install higher displacement outlets for laboratories. Domestic garbage and solid refuses are to be collected for unified disposal by sanitation departments. Dust and noises are to controlled according to national rules on urban construction of civil works. It is also recommended by specialists that a pre-warning and pre-forecasting system should be set up to encounter emergent accidents by the center together with pertinent departments such as the port administration, ocean shipment, fuel tanks, wharfs, cargo shipment and coal shipment, etc. since Tangshan is rather developed along the coast.

4.2 Shell Fish Hatchery

Of its total cost of RMB.19.92 million yuan, the Bank funding accounts for US$ 1.538 million and cost on environment protection for RMB.1.6 million yuan. The hatchery is located 3 Km.s away from the coast. Perfect inlet and outlet canal system is available. The hatchery is largely to use underground water for hatching operation, which is recycled after sedimentation, biological treatment and ozonic sterilization. Shell fishers have the effect on water purification. Scientific culture of shell fishes helps protect marine environment. So the hatching process does not pollute environment. The hatchery has a small boiler to operate 20 days a year when small hatching ponds need to be heated. It is recommended to use anthracite coals to alleviate pollution. It has been noticed that the hatchery is to be built within the Bohai Oil Field Development Zone. Oil harvesting machines are spread in this area. Under normal situation, the machines are well maintained and the oil piping lines are well sealed. However, it is recommended by experts that joint efforts need to be made to protect against oil leakage accidents together with the oil field administration.

C. Monitoring on the Project Environment

1. Necessary Monitoring System to Be Established on Project Environment

The project is designed to aim at promotion of sustainable development of coastal resources. On one hand, the project helps build a number of coastal zone management centers to strengthen the technical and administrative capabilities on monitoring and evaluation of coastal resources. On the other hand, the project helps set up aquiculture and processing subprojects to create more job opportunities for the fishermen who are willing to shift from fishing to land stationed activities, thus to help alleviate heavy burdens on natural environment and resources. Therefore, the sub-projects, with the coastal zone management centers in particular, are requested, with the Banks financial and technical assistance, to make great efforts for the purpose. When the sub-projects are implemented, their impact on the surrounding environment must be minimized by every means, while monitoring and evaluation systems and procedures are formulated to ensure that human activities are always subject to careful and rigid inspection and they would not cause destructive affection on marine waters, coastal zones and offshore islands. It is also requested that reports on environment monitoring and evaluation must be prepared and submitted to both MOA and The Bank on regular basis.

2. Environmental Monitoring on Coastal Zone Management Centers

Construction of a number of the centers is a very important component of the project. Cost of the centers as a whole accounts for 16% of the total cost of the project. China is the pioneer to carry out coastal zone management with the Bank loan.

The center itself does not imply negative impact on environment. Dust and noises during construction will disappear automatically when the construction of civil works is completed. All the centers are to be built in cities where there is well built sewage discharging networks and garbage disposal means. Local governments always appropriate funds through their annual budget to sufficiently support the sanitation departments to handle these matters. In addition, the departments also charge on the amount they have disposed for the users according to agreements between the users and the departments that clearly specify the annual discharging volume by each particular user.

3. Environmental Monitoring on Aquatic Processing Plants

6 aquatic processing plants are newly proposed plus 1 wholesale market. These sub-projects are to produce a large quantity of waste water, waste air and solid refuses. They are requested to operate under strict control of pertinent national rules and regulations. However, Experts have recommended that MOA and local governments should undertake measures to further monitor their surrounding environment as follows:

a. In design scheme, the sub-projects should have technological flow for waste water treatment, which need to be endorsed by the local environment protection agencies. Cost of the waste water treatment facilities must be incorporated in budgets of the total costs. Solid garbage must be collected for unified disposal by the sanitation departments and fees should be budgeted into the operational cost;

b. Processing and environment protection facilities must be built simultaneously;

c. Reimbursement is only effected when it is proven that the waste water treatment facilities are completed and put into normal operation;

d. During normal operation, reports on running of waste water treatment facilities together with analyzed results of the discharged water must be submitted twice a year to the CPMO, MOA, by June 30 and December 31 respectively in both Chinese and English. Storage and use of the refrigerating agent ( liquid ammonia ) and measures to protect against emergent accident must be specified in the reports. A condensed consolidated report will be prepared by CPMO and submitted to the Bank and local environment protection agencies.

e. Cost for discharging water after treatment, disposal of solid refuses, laboratory test and analysis, training on environment protection and procurement of environment protection facilities must be planned and budgeted in a consolidated scheme.

4. Environmental Monitoring on Hatcheries, Cages and Mangrove

Marine water and soil at the adjacent and surrounding area must be tested and analyzed on regular basis to assess the pollution and contamination potential by the project. Necessary measures must be taken when problems are identified.

a. Water quality, both of marine water where the cages are located and of water in hatcheries must be tested twice a year and corrective actions be taken when necessary in accordance with national rules. The reports must be submitted to CPMO by June 30 and December 31 respectively, both in Chinese and English. Drugs if any, feeds used and diseases identified and their impact on environment must also be specified. CPMO will prepare a condensed report and submit to the Bank and local environment protection agencies.

b. According to experts recommendations, cages should be removed at a certain area every 1-2 years.

c. Though Ruannan County in Hebei Province is exporting shellfishes to Japan and South Korea, its proposed hatchery is to be built in an area with many petrol oil harvesting machines. It has been noticed that the machines are well maintained and protected and the oil piping lines are well sealed. However, it is recommended by experts that there exists oil leakage risks, which may contaminate ground water and soils. Therefore, it is required, on one hand, the hatchery keeps close contact and takes joint efforts with the oil field to protect against emergent accident, and on the other hand, the hatchery analyzes the ground water and soils regularly. It is requested that the hatchery submits the result reports twice a year to CPMO, the Bank and the local environment protection agencies. It is recommended by MOA that the Bank may entrust a research institution at the national level to monitor the hatchery for 3 successive years and submit reports twice a year to MOA, the Bank and local environment protection agencies, just similar to the practice by Yingkou on marine water test. The cost is estimated at US$ 30,000 and hopefully to be budgeted into the Bank loan.

d. Yuanyi aquatic processing plant in Fangchenggang Municipality is to be built close to the coast where there exists a mangrove plantation. It has been noted that the plant is to build its own waste water treatment facility and the water discharged will conform to the national standard. However, it is recommended by experts that attention must be paid to the quality variance of the marine water at the discharging outlet. It is required that the processing plant should entrust the local environment protection bureau to carry out evaluation on marine water and mangrove twice a year. The reports should be submitted to CPMO and the Bank. The plant should make budget for this action accordingly.

Crops have mainly: Wheat, corn, grain, potato, beans, vegetable and industrial crop etc.

Description of the quality of environment

The environmental quality and its major problems of the construction site (environmental air, surface water, ground water, sound environment, ecological environment etc)

1.Analysis of the atmosphere quality

The average daily intensity of SO2 of this area is 0.016 ~ 0.028 mgs/ m3, the average intensity an hour is 0.011-0.042mgs/ m3. The average value of a day and an hour surpass the standard. ( the standard value is 0.15mg/m3). The average daily intensity of TSP is 0.103 ~ 0.799mg/m3, its average daily value exceeds the standard value by 76.7%.

According to the said atmospheric environmental quality, it is found that the TSP pollution is serious. There are many pollutive sources, especially the structural pollution is serious, the contaminant is discharged heavily, the emission of part pollutive sources can not reach the standard stably, besides, the construction places and stock fields and bare ground can cause dust by the wind, and the transportation can cause dust as well. All the said pollutive sources cause a high TSP density in atmosphere.

2. Analysis of the surface water quality

There are Dou river and pomegranate river in the district. The average water quality of the urban areas belongs to 5th class of bad water quality. The major contaminant is COD and NH3-N, come from the industrial effluent and sewage. Though, the sewage treatment plants have been established in north suburb and east suburb, partial industrial effluents and sewage directly emit into Dou river without any treatment because the city pipe net system has not been completed.

The front part of the pomegranate river has a better water quality, but after the industrial effluent and sewage being poured into it, the water quality gets worse. Before the pomegranate river enter the Dou river, an inspection of this section shows that the density of CODcr and BOD5 is 43.82 mg/L and 9.93 mg/L respectively.

3. Analysis of noise environment

North to the construction is Tang Gu highway, therefore the environmental noises are mainly caused by the traffic..

4. Analysis of the biological environment

Since the coal mining causes ground sinking, the ground buildings are destroied , the land using function reduces, a lot of industrial solid junks piled in farmland such as coal stone, slag and coal ash pollute the environment.
