Regarding the online transmission of "Guangdong Jieyang First Anti-Japanese War Memorial Park suspected to be illegally exploited in many places", the local government responded
China News Service, Jieyang, September 15 (Reporter Li Yiqing) The Internet reported that "the Memorial Park of the First Anti-Japanese War in Jieyang, Guangdong is suspected of being illegally exploited in many places" has attracted much attention.
The reporter learned from an interview on the 15th that the Jiedong District Committee and District Government of Jieyang City set up an investigation team to organize the Jiedong Branch of the City’s Natural Resources Bureau, the Jiedong Branch of the Ecological Environment Bureau, the District Agriculture and Rural Bureau and Yujiao Town to carry out investigations and verifications. .
The Press Office of the People's Government of Jiedong District reported that the Dajiling Anti-Japanese Relic Site (the "Dajiling Anti-Japanese War Memorial Park" reported on the Internet) is located in Banyang Village, Yujiao Town, Jiedong District, Jieyang City.
In 2015, Yujiao Town invested 3.63 million yuan to build Dajiling Memorial Square on the site, covering an area of more than 3,000 square meters, and simultaneously repairing beacon towers, trenches and bunker fortifications.
The site is a county-level patriotism education base, and the entire area is currently intact.
In the case of "Illegal Mining Sites Around Dajiling Anti-Japanese War Memorial Park", the site is about 1 km away from Dajiling Memorial Square in a straight line, and is not within the scope of Dajiling Memorial Square.
This area is forest land (commercial forest) with an area of 1084 mu, and the owner is the collective of Banyang Village, contracted by Banyang Villager Chen Zhisheng.
During the contract period, the contractor applied for a forest logging permit in May 2018, with a total approved logging area of 287 mu. The logging was completed in July 2018.
Chen Zhisheng originally planned to apply for a pig farm. In May 2019, he started to renovate some of the logging sites, sparse woodland and unforested land within the mountain range (an area of about 130 mu).
Relevant functional departments considered ecological and environmental issues and refused to approve them, and ordered them to restore the greening of the mountains.
This mountainous area will be re-greened by the end of November 2019, planting a total of 10,000 African jasmine, 6,000 mangoes, and 4,000 camphor trees.
The photo of the excavator operation posted on the Internet is the work site during the renovation of the mountain last year.
Regarding the situation of "another site allegedly located on the west side of Jilongshan illegal mining site".
The site is located on the west side of Jilong Mountain. After investigation, the reservoir is not a source of drinking water and is mainly used for irrigation.
No mechanical equipment was found at the site, but there were traces of rain washing the exposed mountains and muddy water flowing into the reservoir.
The preliminary investigation was due to the recent heavy rain.
In recent years, it has been discovered that some villagers secretly digging and borrowing soil from the mountains near the reservoir. Through strengthening supervision, investigation and publicity and education, the problem of digging and borrowing soil has been effectively controlled.
Judging from the scene, the re-greening of the soil taken from the mountain was not in place, resulting in water and soil erosion on rainy days; no cement slag dumped into the reservoir was found, but there were some villagers dumping construction waste in the place.
At present, it has been implemented that the agricultural and rural departments quickly organize the restoration of green, and implement the Yujiao Town to organize the cleaning of construction waste and the restoration of the mountains near the reservoir.
Regarding the situation that "Yujiao Town Farm has been stolen for a long time and used resources to build machine bricks"
According to the report, the farm is located in the mountainous area of Xiajingxiang in Yujiao Town. The site is a borrowing point for key projects such as the Fengjiang Embankment Construction Project, the Water Diversion Project from South Korea, and the Sino-German Metal Eco-City Park.
No phenomenon of illegal mining soil used in brick factory production was found.
Jiedong District of Jieyang City stated that it will conduct further investigations and verifications and strengthen daily supervision. If problems are found, they will be reformed and those who are not well supervised will be held accountable in accordance with laws and regulations.
