Ceng Wenhua, Mayor of danjiangkou city, Ceng Wenhua

In the autumn of June, the sky is high and the clouds are light. We came to danjiangkou city, the source of the Middle Route of South-to-North Water Transfer Project. A pool of crystal clear water is rippling in the microwave. The green hills on both sides of the strait roll up gentle arms to defend the sacredness of the source. Thinking that in four years, people from Henan, Hebei, Beijing and Tianjin will share a river with them, we are full of gratitude to the people of Danjiangkou. We found Ceng Wenhua, deputy secretary of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and mayor of danjiangkou city, and let him meet our concerns. Reporter: danjiangkou city is a city with a population of 500,000. We should not only do a good job in urban development, but also ensure that a pool of clean water is sent to Beijing? How do you do these two things?

Mayor Ceng Wenhua said, "Save water first, then transfer water, pollute water first, and then use water". The South-to-North Water Diversion Project has pushed Danjiangkou to the forefront of the historical stage, and protecting a Qingshui reservoir has become a political task for danjiangkou city. Therefore, as early as the beginning of this century, we blew the horn of "building a city by ecology", changed the development goal from "industrial tourism city" to "eco-tourism city", and the pursuit of "green GDP" became the unanimous understanding of the four leaders of the city and also became the action guide of the people of the city.

Over the years, under the guidance of Scientific Outlook on Development, our city has seized important opportunities such as the construction of the middle route of South-to-North Water Transfer Project, the new stage of poverty alleviation and development, the implementation of the strategy of the rise of central China, the construction of eco-cultural tourism circle in western Hubei, and the pilot project of poverty alleviation in the whole province, giving full play to the ecological advantages of mountainous counties and cities, scientifically handling the relationship between protection and development, establishing the concept of "green economy" and vigorously developing eco-industry, eco-agriculture and eco-tourism.

In order to protect the water quality in the reservoir area, our city strictly prevents and controls industrial pollution, successively shutting down 20 small metallurgical, paper-making, leather and chemical enterprises, building more than 20 sets of water pollution prevention facilities, and closing 120 pollution sources, reducing the annual COD emission by 4,000 tons. Vigorously rectify air pollution, build more than 0 sets of environmental protection facilities 10, and reduce dust emission140,000 tons every year. At the same time, strictly manage the environment of new projects, and resolutely veto projects that do not conform to environmental protection planning, industrial policies and serious pollution.

In order to protect the water source, our city holds high the "green banner", vigorously develops modern agriculture and new industrialization, and relies on structural adjustment, technological transformation and investment attraction, initially forming a "four big and one new" industrial pattern with metallurgy, auto parts, pharmaceutical and chemical industries, green food and high-tech industries as the mainstay. A large number of well-known enterprises at home and abroad, such as Nongfu Spring, Yurun Group and Alishan Agricultural High-tech Company in Taiwan Province Province, have successively settled here, and 29 key processing enterprises for livestock, poultry, citrus and aquatic products have been developed, and 93 farmers' professional cooperative organizations have been established. It has formed a dominant agricultural product base with citrus, animal husbandry and aquatic products as the main products, including 300,000 mu of citrus with an annual output of 300,000 tons. It was listed as a national regional advantage agricultural product base by the Ministry of Agriculture and awarded the title of "Hometown of Fruits" in the whole province. Aquaculture has formed a scale of 1 1.5 million mu, with an annual output of 70,000 tons of aquatic products, and was awarded the title of "featured aquatic county" in the province.

In order to strengthen the control of agricultural non-point source pollution, the city has vigorously carried out the construction of ecological agriculture, increased the comprehensive utilization of agricultural residues, and promoted a virtuous circle of agricultural production and ecological environment. Actively carry out the construction of pollution-free agricultural products bases, support enterprises to build bases and connect with farmers, implement standardized production, and promote the development of pollution-free, green and organic food in water transfer areas. Establish a demonstration project of harmless treatment of human and animal manure. Taking the "five reforms and three constructions" as the main body (circle reform, toilet reform, kitchen reform, water reform, road reform, biogas digesters, rich gardens and ecological courtyards), the city has built 6,543,800 household biogas digesters and 86,000 firewood-saving stoves, protecting 400,000 mu of forests from firewood harvesting every year, with an annual income increase and expenditure reduction benefit of more than 30 million yuan, with economic and ecological benefits.

Soil and water conservation is an important measure to prevent soil erosion. For this reason, in a short period of five years, our city has implemented comprehensive management of 16 small watersheds, and built a number of demonstration small watersheds such as Dabaihe River, Qingtang River and Heigou River. After national acceptance, 1 1 has reached the standard, and Hamakou small watershed has been named as the national soil and water conservation ecological environment by the Ministry of Water Resources and the Ministry of Finance. The total area of soil erosion control in the project area is 333.35km2, and the national investment is16.058 million yuan, initially forming a new pattern of comprehensive control and ecological protection system of "ecological restoration in distant mountains, efficient agriculture in short cuts and high-quality citrus in the reservoir area".

Forestry ecological construction is the basic work to protect Qingshui reservoir. Therefore, the city has firmly established the ecological development concept of "grasping ecology means grasping development", established the Forest Public Security Bureau and part-time rangers, and vigorously implemented the projects of returning farmland to forests, closing hillsides to facilitate afforestation and afforestation. Up to now, closing hillsides to facilitate afforestation10.8 million mu, returning farmland to forests for 370,000 mu, and barren hills suitable for afforestation10.8 million mu have been completed and built along the reservoir area. Through unremitting efforts, the area of forestry land in the city increased by 7.5%, the forest area increased by 15.3%, and the area of soil erosion decreased from 1697 square kilometers to 1645 square kilometers.

At present, most of Danjiangkou Reservoir meet the first-class water quality standard except that the total nitrogen is better than the second-class water quality standard.

Reporter: danjiangkou city is an immigrant city, and now it is faced with the heavy responsibility of resettling because of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project. How will the living standards of ordinary people improve after immigration?

Ceng Wenhua: The first-phase project of Danjiangkou Water Control Project was implemented in a very difficult national economy, with 654.38+600,000 immigrants. The core area of agricultural development was flooded, the per capita cultivated land of immigrants in the reservoir area decreased from 1. 12 mu before flooding to 0.32 mu, the per capita ration decreased from 432 kg to 222 kg, and the per capita distribution decreased from 80 yuan to 35 yuan. Since then, danjiangkou city has been reduced from a moderately developed city in Hubei Province to a famous poverty-stricken county in the province.

The Middle Route of South-to-North Water Transfer Project focuses on immigrants, and the focus of immigrants is in danjiangkou city. The second phase of South-to-North Water Diversion Project in danjiangkou city plans to relocate more than 92,000 people, including 54,000 people in the city and 38,000 people outside the city, mainly distributed in 98 resettlement sites in 10 counties and cities in the province. The resettlement work in the dam area was completed ahead of schedule as early as 2005. On April 29th this year, the last batch of 23 households 102 pilot immigrants from Junxian Town, danjiangkou city successfully moved to the resettlement site of the second branch of Denglin Farm in Yicheng City, marking the completion of the relocation task of the pilot immigrants in our city, 1557 households with 6,625 people. On June 10, 52 households 18 1 immigrants from Langhekou Village in Langhe Town successfully moved to their new homes in Qihui Village, Datan Seed Farm, huangpi district, Wuhan, becoming the first batch of immigrants to move in Danjiangkou Reservoir Area of Hubei Province on a large scale in the Middle Route of South-to-North Water Transfer Project, which marked the official start of the large-scale relocation of danjiangkou city immigrants. This year, according to the general goal of "basically completing the four-year task in two years and thoroughly cleaning up the mess in three years" put forward by the Hubei provincial government, danjiangkou city will complete the task of resettling 755 1 household and 3 1.293 people by the end of September.

"Moving out, staying stable and developing" is the goal of danjiangkou city's immigration work. We adhere to people-oriented, harmonious relocation, and put immigration first. The city firmly establishes the service concept of all for immigrants and all for immigrants, and from the reality of immigrants, it has feelings, responsibilities, empathy and family service. First, increase immigration skills training. On March 12 last year, danjiangkou city organized more than 90 immigrants from Guanmenyan Village, Junxian Town, to party member people, and conducted free technical training on greenhouse vegetables, cotton production, ammoniated cattle raising and other planting and breeding industries. Over the past three years, danjiangkou city has held more than 80 training courses specifically for immigrants, which effectively enhanced their instinct to get rich and strengthened their confidence in starting a business. The second is to properly handle practical problems that immigrants care about and affect their immediate interests. In specific work, major issues related to immigration work, such as letters, visits and hot spots and difficulties in the process of resettlement, are personally questioned by the main leaders, adhere to the national immigration policy, seek truth from facts and solve them in time. Third, selfless dedication and family service. Since the relocation and resettlement work started, the city has carried out the activity of "thousands of teams staying in villages and ten thousand people entering households". All migrant workers and cadres give up holidays, consciously work overtime, work selflessly and contribute selflessly, eat and live in the front line of immigration work, and actively act as "staff officers" in the production and life of immigrants while promoting the relocation work in an orderly manner. At the same time, the vast number of immigrants take care of the overall situation and know the overall situation, and actively support and support the construction of national key projects with practical actions. Although most immigrants moved twice, they still have no regrets, such as: Jiang Shuiqing, a veteran who took the lead in moving twice; Fenggou Village, Xijiadian Town, which took the lead in helping other immigrants move, immigrated to Wang Lun; Open a supermarket one year in advance in the resettlement area to serve the immigrant brothers who moved, and the time is equal. Fourth, implement the national and provincial immigration support policies to the letter. For example, in terms of production development, the Hubei provincial government put forward the goal of "six ones", that is, to ensure that everyone has a stable and efficient grain field of not less than 1.5 mu to solve the problem of immigrants' eating; Every household has a living environment with convenient production, convenient life, complete facilities and beautiful environment; From the date of completion of the relocation, the migrant agricultural population will be included in the scope of later support, and each person will directly subsidize 600 yuan every year to solve the living difficulties of immigrants for 20 consecutive years; Training and transferring one labor force per household to solve the employment problem of immigrants; Every eligible immigrant should apply for an old-age insurance to solve the problem of old-age care. At the same time, in the continuation of the policy of benefiting farmers, immigrants continue to enjoy the policies that have been implemented in rural areas.

Judging from the situation of immigrants who have moved out at present, the production and living environment and housing conditions of immigrants in the reservoir area of our city have improved significantly, reaching the basic stability of the reservoir area and the basic satisfaction of immigrants.

Q: As a water source, has danjiangkou city considered "heart-to-heart" with people in Beijing and other water-receiving areas, and "hand in hand" with enterprises or departments in water-receiving areas to achieve a win-win situation in economic and social interests?

Ceng Wenhua: Since ancient times, danjiangkou city has become a blessed place for social, economic and cultural development with its special geographical position. Now, the world-renowned South-to-North Water Diversion Project in China has once again created unparalleled investment and development advantages for danjiangkou city. Danjiangkou city, in particular, has fertile land and rich products, and enjoys the reputation of "Pearl of Hydropower" and "Green Water Capital of China". Danjiangkou city is rich in hydropower mineral resources, with more than 40 kinds of proven mineral resources, among which the reserves of titanium, iron and vanadium rank first in Hubei Province. Non-metallic minerals include dolomite, limestone, electrolytic stone, marble, asbestos, etc., with large reserves and high grade.

People often say that planting a plane tree will attract a phoenix. First of all, we should accelerate the transformation of government functions, strengthen social management and public service functions, continue to deepen the reform of the administrative examination and approval system, clean up, reduce and standardize administrative examination and approval matters, and explore the establishment of a supervision and management mechanism for examination and approval and licensing matters. Second, constantly improve and perfect the investment promotion methods, increase the efforts of online investment promotion, conference investment promotion, business investment promotion, media investment promotion, agency investment promotion and affiliated investment promotion, eliminate institutional obstacles, and support and cultivate the great development of the private economy. Third, actively build "Phoenix" new houses, adhere to the construction of industrial parks as an important platform for industrial development, shift the focus of work to industrial parks, and tilt the capital policy to industrial parks. At present, four industrial parks have been basically formed, namely Jinjiawan Industrial Park, Liu Liping Industrial Park, Langhe Industrial Park and Sanguandian Industrial Park, with 225 enterprises. The agglomeration effect of industrial parks is gradually emerging, and the park economy is gradually becoming an important "growth pole" of the city's industrial economy.

In short, we hope that in the future, through the "golden signboard" of the South-to-North Water Transfer Project and the strong support of the news network media, more people with lofty ideals will know about Danjiangkou, know Danjiangkou and invest in Danjiangkou. We will also rely on our own efforts to build Danjiangkou and welcome friends from all over the world with a beautiful and harmonious Danjiangkou! (Peng Tieyuan)
