　　On the banks of Dongting Lake in early summer, Zhitinglan, the verdant green reeds on the open and flat wetland undulate with the wind, contrasting with the clear water of the river.

In "Finless Porpoise Bay", it is common for finless porpoises to jump out of the water, round up small fish in the water, or chase and play with wild ducks.

　　The "Fresh Porpoise Bay" is also called Hualong Wharf. It used to be an illegal sand mining wharf. It occupies an area of ​​300 acres of the Yangtze River beach. The dust, waste water and residue generated by the wharf seriously damage the wetland ecology and pollute the Yangtze River.

But in only three years, profound changes have taken place here.

　　On April 25, 2018, General Secretary Xi Jinping and his entourage entered Yueyang, Hunan from Hubei, and went to the Junshan Hualong Wharf, Dongting Lake and the Yangtze River Basin's hydrological "barometer" Chenglingji Hydrological Station to observe the illegal sand and gravel wharf ban and rectification. Re-greening and wetland restoration, understanding the comprehensive monitoring and management of water resources in the southern part of the Yangtze River and the Dongting Lake basin, as well as disaster prevention and mitigation.

　　"How long is the Hunan section of the Yangtze River coastline? Have the polluting companies shut down? What measures have been taken to the original site after the shutdown? The general secretary asked each question very carefully and truthfully, and immediately mentioned the pain points of work and Difficulties.” At that time, it was Wang Yiou, who was the director of the Hunan Provincial Department of Land and Resources and the current secretary of the Yueyang Municipal Party Committee, who reported to the General Secretary at Hualong Wharf.

　　Wang Yiou still clearly remembered that when it was reported that the water quality of 11 monitored sections of Dongting Lake had been improved from 3 Grade IV water quality and 8 Grade V water quality in 2015 to Grade IV through centralized rectification, the general secretary was relieved. Smile.

"The general secretary also emphasized that the ecological environment of the Yangtze River must not be allowed to continue to deteriorate in the hands of our generation, and we must leave a clean and beautiful Yangtze River for future generations!"

　　Wang Yiou introduced that Yueyang has 163 kilometers of the Yangtze River coastline, more than 50% of the Dongting Lake water area, and more than 1,500 square kilometers of East Dongting Lake wetland.

In order to implement the instructions of the General Secretary, Yueyang has focused on ecological priority and green development in the past three years. It has carried out the largest scale of water treatment and pollution control in history, and finally reproduced the beautiful green scenery on the shore and clear rivers. .

　　"Before the rectification, there were 39 illegal docks along the main stream of the Yangtze River (Hunan Province); after the rectification, all the ships that were moored here were evacuated." Li Jianhua, secretary of the Party Working Committee of Chenglingji New Port District, sighed. The loading and unloading efficiency of Chenglingji Port has been doubled, and it has also saved 750 meters of space on the shoreline of the Yangtze River, and the shoreline has all been re-greened into a beautiful landscape.

　　The ecological management plan has been rolled out in an all-round way, and the public is encouraged to participate in environmental protection.

　　Zhu Zaibao, a 93-year-old veteran of the Korean War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea, has driven hundreds of thousands of volunteers to fight on the front line of environmental protection and "sow green seeds in the hearts of young people."

In Yueyang, there is a group of young people who voluntarily participate in water management and water conservation. They form the "River Xiaoqing", and they take the initiative to patrol, clear and protect the lake all year round.

　　Some important ecological indicators of the Yangtze River and Dongting Lake have now shown positive changes: in 2020, the water quality of the Yueyang section of the Yangtze River will reach 100%, and the water quality of Type II will account for 95.7%; the comprehensive evaluation of the water quality of Dongting Lake has reached the assessment standard; the winter migratory birds of Dongting Lake will exceed 28.8 There are 10,000 finless porpoises and more than 200 elk in stable habitats, respectively.

　　"Guarding a river and clear water" is not only related to the environmental protection work of a domain, but also a strategic project related to the overall situation.

In order to protect the Yangtze River, Hunan is committed to achieving the ultimate in every task and carrying the banner of "green development".

　　Ports and wharfs that do not meet environmental protection requirements and have not been approved are fully shut down, and all the beaches and closed wharves are restored to green; coordinated management of "one lake and four waters", dredging and dredging of ditches, ponds and dams, and illegal sand and gravel wharves are closed; Shut down "scattered and polluted" enterprises, industrial park sewage treatment, black and smelly water treatment... Nowadays, the Xiangjiang River has drinking water everywhere, and one lake with four waters is clear and green.

　　At present, Hunan is implementing the strategy of "three highs and four new". The incumbents emphasized that the construction of the Yangtze River Economic Belt should be integrated with it, and the organic connection of water environment, water ecology, water culture, and shoreline should be considered in order to protect it. The actual actions of grasping governance and grasping construction have demonstrated new responsibilities in promoting the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt.
