How is Wenzhou Longzhou Lake beautiful because of the water?

The mountains outside the city are surrounded by water, and the mountains and rivers are seen in the city. Under the blue sky and white clouds, the clear water is rippling, painting a new picture of the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, which is beautiful......

Since 2023, the Wenzhou Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment has closely focused on the theme of deepening the battle against water pollution, adhered to the core of consolidating and improving the quality of the water environment and the health of the water ecology, continued to deepen the "five water co-governance" clear water action, continued to expand the aquatic industry, and promoted the iterative upgrading of beautiful rivers and lakes to happy rivers and lakes. A beautiful picture of harmony between man and water is slowly unfolding in Wenzhou.

Keep tackling tough problems

The overall water environment of the city is good

"From the perspective of this venue, the water quality and facilities are the best dragon boat races I have seen so far. Fan Guangsheng, President of the Asian Dragon Boat Federation and Chairman of the Chinese Dragon Boat Association, spoke highly of the Asian Games Dragon Boat Race. During the Asian Games, Wenzhou Dragon Boat Lake was used as the venue for the dragon boat project of the Hangzhou Asian Games, which left a deep impression on the guests from all over the world.

Behind the rave reviews is a series of tough measures. Focusing on the main line of "clear water to welcome the Asian Games", the Wenzhou Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment has comprehensively built a "1+2+38" guarantee system to provide the best water environment guarantee for the city's smooth hosting of the Asian Games dragon boat events.These include organizing and carrying out a "1,000 people and 100 days" water control action to welcome the Asian Games in the city, setting up special work classes at the city and county levels, tackling and promoting the "six major measures", accelerating the implementation of a number of water control projects, focusing on overcoming a number of water control problems, and ensuring that the city's overall water environment is good.

Since 2023, the water quality of the Puqi state-controlled section in Yueqing City, Wenzhou has improved significantly and tended to be stable, and the water quality of the section has continued to be stable and controlled in Class III.This is a microcosm of the city's cross-sectional water quality improvement. In 2023, the proportion of class I.-III. water quality and the compliance rate of the handover section of the city's state-controlled section will remain 100%, and the proportion of class I.-III. water quality of the provincial-controlled section and above will reach 93.8%, an increase of 3.8 percentage points compared with 2022, ranking first in the province and setting the best result in history.

This is due to the precise implementation of "governance", focusing on the goal of "achieving III. elimination V." in section water quality, Wenzhou Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment took the lead in carrying out the water environment quality "fighting for 100 days and fighting a good battle" to guide the implementation of 10 national and provincial sections "one point and one policy" precise governance.In addition, the Wenzhou Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment has implemented normal supervision and "management" of the section, and reported the water quality changes and existing problems to river chiefs at all levels in a timely manner, and has sent more than 50 warm reminder letters since September 2023.

At the same time, the Wenzhou Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment adheres to the "one test per day", "one supervision in half a month" and "one notification in one month" of the water quality of the problem section, with a total of more than 60 on-site supervisions, 12 notices have been sent, and the inspection office of the Wenzhou Municipal Party Committee has carried out county-level self-inspection and municipal-level verification of cross-section water environment problems, and completed 88 problem investigations.

Focusing on solving the outstanding "water" problems around the masses, the Wenzhou Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment screened and put forward a list of 15 water-related livelihood facts, including the remediation of odorous rivers, the repair of damaged pipe networks, and the restoration and management of water ecology, etc., turning the "problem list" into a "performance list", and striving to turn the "pain points" of the water environment into "bright spots".

"Point" water into gold

Stimulate new ecological momentum

Walking into Cangnan County along Puwan, the mangrove forests on the tidal flats are lush and green, the egrets on the trees are flying, and there are rows of seaweed drying on the shore, which is a pleasant scene.

In recent years, the Wenzhou Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment has steadily promoted the comprehensive management of sea areas, continued to increase the cultivation and assistance of national pilot projects for the construction of beautiful bays along Pu Bay, and assisted Cangnan to carry out the pilot project of "taking the pulse" of the construction of beautiful bays along Pu Bay. Starting from trial planting, pollution control and ecological restoration projects such as comprehensive remediation, beach surface treatment, and habitat transformation of suitable forests were carried out, and through replanting and expansion, the mangrove "northward army" gradually grew to a scale of 1,000 acres. In 2021, Cangnan began to implement the "Blue Bay" comprehensive renovation action, adding 350 acres of mangrove forests to this "sea forest".

Today, the total area of mangrove forests along Puwan has reached 1558.25 acres. In the mangrove planting area along Puwan, there are as many as 358 species of marine organisms, and more than 20 species of birds that migrate and stay at or above the national level of secondary protection.

In addition to helping restore the ecological environment, mangroves also bring more economic value. The construction of the ecological breeding base increases the income of the local village collective every year. On September 30 last year, Yanpu Town, Cangnan County, completed the first fishery carbon sink transaction, according to statistics, the carbon storage of the mangrove ecosystem along Puwan is about 9,000 tons, according to the market transaction price of about 80-100 yuan per ton, the blue carbon market is full of potential.

In Wenzhou, there are countless examples of relying on high-quality water environment to achieve "green" industry and "gold" for the people. Relying on abundant water resources and good ecology and water quality, Wencheng County has successfully introduced leading enterprises of aquatic products such as "Wahaha", and leading industries such as aquatic products and health food have gradually spread out; Ruian City has taken the Feiyun River as the axis, adhered to the development strategy of "one city, two towns, one belt and three lines", and made use of the superior resources of the longest cross-river weir dam in Zhejiang Province - the dam at the foot of the beach and the superior resources of "freshwater beach and valley Doubleforest", equipped with theme hotels, water sports and other tourism facilities, and built a "water slow city" with the theme of "water" and "slow" to transform water resources into a "water economy......

Nowadays, Wenzhou is actively cultivating the aquatic industry, revitalizing water resources, activating water advantages, developing diversified "wading products", promoting the development of "water resources +" industry, and releasing strong ecological value.

Beautiful because of the water

Dress up and beautify the countryside

Walking into Zhouyang Village, Wanquan Town, Pingyang County, a picture of a quiet and comfortable water town in southern Zhejiang unfolds in front of you: white-walled and tiled houses, clean and tidy roads, and tourists who take selfies and check in......

Who would have thought that many years ago, Zhouyang Village was also rated as the dirtiest village in Pingyang County. It is not only the living environment in front of and behind the house that is dirty, but also the water environment on the surface of the river and lake.A vigorous rectification kicked off. This is a major measure for Pingyang County to thoroughly implement the Wenzhou Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment to deepen the "Five Water Co-governance" clear water action and Wenzhou City's "Opinions on Promoting "Five Water Co-governance" with High Quality to Build an Ecological Civilization Highland", and strive to promote the protection and restoration of water ecology.

What is surprising is that the appearance of the countryside is exchanged for the output value. During the "May Day" period in 2023, the "Poetry and Painting Water Town, Song Yun Wanquan" Cultural Tourism Festival will be held in Zhouyang Village. During the event, the village received more than 100,000 tourists, and the income from tickets and agricultural products reached more than 500,000 yuan.

With water as the medium, because of the beauty of water, Wenzhou has painted a new picture of the beautiful countryside in Wenzhou. Through the construction of the water blue road, Yueqing has connected the villages along the Sidu River in Danxi Town, and created a beautiful landscape line of "Xi Lu Song" through the beads into a chain, realizing the in-depth integration of the beautiful river and lake water blue road and the rural revitalization strategy, and driving the development of rural ecological agriculture, homestays, cultural and creative industries; ......

In the next step, Wenzhou will continue to deeply practice the concept of people's city and park city, sound the rallying cry of "Strong City Action", promote the protection of the water ecological environment with high quality, and create a beautiful Wenzhou.
