Nanjing Wutongshu Event Related Events

/kloc-in the autumn of 0/999, when the autumn wind was still full of green leaves, a row of 50-year-old buttonwood trees on Zhanyuan Road in Nanjing were facing the bad luck of being cut down-the reason for cutting down was to expand the road. A media reporter called an attractive old scholar, and the old scholar immediately contacted eight professors from Nanjing University, Southeast University and Nanjing Forestry University. When they arrived at the scene, a big tree had been sawn off.

Eight professors jointly wrote a letter to the municipal government, calling for the protection of these big trees. This incident alarmed a reporter of People's Daily, so in the East China edition of People's Daily the next day, a report entitled "These big trees should not be cut down" was published in the headline of 14 edition. The tree was finally preserved, and the traditional space around the exhibition garden was also preserved. Shortly after the opening of the 200 1 Shanghai-Nanjing Expressway, the six rows of buttonwood trees in Zhongshan Gate section of Zhongshan East Road were ordered to cut off four rows in order to allow cars to enter Nanjing immediately after getting off the expressway. As a result, more than 20 experts and scholars jointly wrote to the Ministry of Construction, asking our builders to "show mercy".

The Minister of Construction personally went to Nanjing to understand the situation and agreed to the expert's suggestion of "cutting two rows and protecting four rows", otherwise Nanjing will be disqualified from Greentown. Although four rows of trees were preserved, the two rows of trees that were cut down were still sad. Southern Weekend 20065438+0 March 15 expressed deep regret with the title "A tree that died unhappily". When Marshal Liu Bocheng was the mayor of Nanjing, when he saw a wooden stick on the hillside, he asked, Did he cut down the trees in Zijinshan? At that time, the person who cut down the highest tree on the mountain was sentenced to 12 years.

When Premier Zhou Enlai visited the Purple Mountain, he found someone chopping down trees and severely criticized: "No matter how poor the country is, it can't move a tree on the Purple Mountain."

Today, 20,000 trees have been cut down in Purple Mountain, which is the first time in 55 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

The old man over the age of 70 cried.

Lao Song, a 70-year-old landscape engineer, stands on the Purple Mountain. The scene at the scene made him so sad that he couldn't bear to open his eyes: the original lush virgin forest here is now only bare yellow land and broken piles.

The cut virgin forest is located in the upper reaches of Huang Ma Reservoir and the lower reaches of Huangma Reservoir on the east side of Zijin Mountain, and Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum is located in the south side of Zijin Mountain. Lao Song, who has worked in Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum for 42 years, told reporters that Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum and Purple Mountain are integrated in the minds of Nanjing people-"Destroying Purple Mountain is destroying Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum."

It was the villagers in Huangma Village who first discovered that someone was cutting down trees on the Purple Mountain. Villager Liu said that at the end of August, he saw someone cutting down trees in the Woods, and no one was in charge. Lao Song didn't believe it at that time. "In the 55 years since the founding of the People's Republic of China, I have never seen such a courageous person."

10 10 On 24th October, Lao Song and more than forty old workers who had worked in Zhongshan Cemetery Administration (hereinafter referred to as Administration) came to the Upper Huang Ma Reservoir and were stunned by what they saw. "They cut down trees not with saws, but with large excavators waving digging arms and sweeping all the way." Someone recalled the scene at that time, "Many cut trees were buried directly in the ground." A 70-year-old man who came to the scene for the first time, his lips trembled and kept repeating: "What are they going to do? What are you doing? "

More than forty old workers immediately built a human wall hand in hand to stop the excavator from advancing, but the excavator waved an iron arm over their heads and did not stop. Four large excavators carried out a 24-hour "sweeping" in the forest. First, cut the tree directly with a digging arm, and then someone will clean up the remaining branches and leaves immediately. Finally, the stump was sawed off and uprooted. The old workers rushed to Ma Reservoir and found the same situation. According to their experience, the total area of forest land destroyed twice was nearly 100 mu, and nearly 20 thousand trees were cut down. They don't believe everything in front of them at all: once a gardener mistakenly cut down a sick tree on the Purple Mountain, which was greatly recorded by the administration; Nine years ago, a gardener stole 28 Chinese fir trees and was sentenced to two years in prison.

This group of over-aged old people cried. Because this is the best protected virgin forest on the Purple Mountain, with diversified trees and perfect ecology, birds can be heard everywhere when you walk into the forest, sika deer and roe deer are playing and running in the forest, and even wolves 10 years ago can be seen drinking water by the lake.

Who is the tree cutter?

654381On October 23rd, the reporter interviewed the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum Administration. A staff member surnamed Liu in the office of the Administration Bureau explained, "The East Engineering Command of the Comprehensive Management Project of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum is under construction on the east side of Zijin Mountain, but it will not cut down trees, but only transplant or clean up miscellaneous trees according to procedures." However, Lao Song, a landscape engineer, questioned the statement of "clearing miscellaneous trees": "Even if miscellaneous trees below 5cm are cleared, strict planning and approval should be made, not to mention cutting down big trees with DBH exceeding10cm or even dozens of centimeters." The reporter found on the website of Nanjing Municipal Government the document of Nanjing Municipal Government in 20061February 16. (2004) 126 "Notice of the General Office of the Municipal Government on Establishing the East Engineering Construction Command of the Comprehensive Treatment Project of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum" (hereinafter referred to as "East Engineering Command"-reporter's note) mentioned that the purpose of establishing the East Engineering Command is to "further strengthen the leadership on the construction of supporting facilities for the 10th National Games and improve the tourism service function of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum Scenic Area. The post was published on September 24th, 2004.

At the construction site of Zijinshan, the reporter found the specific construction unit-Ma Real Estate Co., Ltd. and the full name of the construction project "Nanjing East Reception Center Reconstruction and Expansion Project (tentative name)".

The reporter searched the information of "Ma Real Estate Co., Ltd." on the Internet and found no information about the company. According to informed sources, the company is funded by government departments and specially set up for the reconstruction and expansion project of "East Reception Center". The reporter asked several staff members of the company, and the other party said that they had just joined the company and did not understand the company.

Director Tai of the comprehensive department of the real estate company explained that the procedures for cutting down trees have been strictly examined and approved. He refused to disclose the specific amount of felling, only stressed that the felling of each tree was approved by the Garden Management Office of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum Administration in accordance with normal procedures. Wang Xing, a staff member of the Garden Management Office of the Administration Bureau, said that the number of trees cut down this time is indeed very large, which is rare in history. However, Huang Ma Company has complete procedures for cutting down trees, and is currently counting the trees to be cut down with Huangma Company. "It may be that the construction party is in a hurry, so it was cut first."

"Where is the reason for cutting down trees before counting?" Old Song, who had dealt with trees all his life, couldn't help jumping up. "According to the procedure, after obtaining the cutting permit, count the number and types of trees to be cut down, and then cut down trees under the supervision of relevant departments."

Huang Ma Company said that it had applied to Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum Administration for the first phase of the project on September 30th, "92 trees1plant need to be transplanted and 8 trees11plant need to be cut down". After receiving the application, the Administration Bureau asked the Nanjing Municipal Government for instructions in the form of documents in June 5438+1October 65438+February 65438+1October. But the old gardeners believe that the actual number of trees cut down is far more than that. "transplant? Where is the transplanted tree? 9, 10 The growth period of the tree has not completely ended, and it will die as soon as it is transplanted! " Lawyer Sun of the law firm also expressed different opinions on the reply received by the company.

According to the Regulations on the Administration of Nanjing Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum Scenic Area (hereinafter referred to as the Regulations), the Administration has the right to cut down trees below 10 and trees above 10, which shall be pre-examined by the Administration and reported to the Municipal People's Government for approval.

"The Regulations do not stipulate the upper limit for approval by the Municipal People's Government." Lawyer Sun told the reporter, "According to the second paragraph of Article 16 of the Forest Law, if the area of special-purpose forest land is occupied or requisitioned more than 10 hectare, it will be examined by the competent forestry department of the State Council."

"The forest law of the superior law is superior to the provisions of the subordinate law." Lawyer Sun explained that the trees in Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum Scenic Area belong to special-purpose forests. According to the planning area of 2,000 mu for the reconstruction and expansion project of the East Reception Center, which has far exceeded the upper limit of 10 hectare, Jiangsu Province has no right to audit, and it should be reported to the competent forestry department of the State Council for audit.

On June 1 65438+1October1day, the reporter called the management bureau to inquire about the specific logging approval matters. A staff member surnamed Han in the office said that it was "inconvenient to be interviewed" and instead asked the reporter to "find the director of the general office of the company".

Illegal construction projects? No project?

According to the "Regulations", "in the planning control area, no construction projects other than the planning of scenic spots and the detailed planning of various scenic spots shall be built". The deforested forest land is just within the planned control area. However, in the detailed planning of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum officially approved by the Jiangsu Provincial Construction Department on June 26, 65438, only Huangma Waterfront Leisure Park in the northeast of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum was planned, and the reporter did not find any project about the reconstruction and expansion of the East Reception Center. "To build a leisure park, only one pavilion and two paths are needed. Where can I use thousands of acres of land? " An old gardener said. For the reconstruction and expansion project of the "East Reception Center", the old gardener said that "there has never been such a unit as the" East Reception Center ".

A staff member of the Administration confirmed this to the reporter: "Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum has never had an' Eastern Reception Center', but there has always been an' Eastern Leisure Center' on Huanling Road, which covers an area of 1. 1.000 square meters and has existed for seven years." According to local media reports in Nanjing, the "Oriental Leisure Center" located in the planning control area of Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum was identified as an illegal building as early as the beginning of this year, and was completely demolished on August 16.
