"For us is hard choice, give up now, preparations thrown so much may be at stake, if it goes through, we will become the target of environmentalists. "Office of the Jiangxi Provincial Bureau of water resources one of the 21st century business Herald reporters admit they" stranded ".

This Office have said is Lake water control project. On July 25, the national development and Reform Commission convened on Poyang Lake project item demonstrates "seminar" Organization of experts and relevant sectoral programme of demonstration project of Poyang Lake, results may be released in the near future.

As a general rule, once approved by the NDRC, Hydroproject construction of Poyang Lake have handed the initiative to the local government hands.

This means the near future, Poyang Lake might build a Lake stretches for approximately 2.8 km to stop gate.

It is understood that the current programmes will be adjusted "dam" is "sluices" practicing "adjustable dry no flood, blocking water impoundment" new ideas, also canceled power project.

Why changes the dam sluices, because as early as 2001, put forward in Poyang Lake in Jiangxi provincial water resources Bureau built dam scheme. But due to a blocked the rivers and Lakes of the programme without State support.

Later in 2008, Jiangxi in order for the project, engineering ideas previously "dry flood control regulation" with the words "dry smooth regulating flood", that is communicated maintain the rivers and lakes and flood in Poyang Lake flood diversion, play roles, in the dry season the water storage. But at the national level was somewhat more cautious.

For the sluices Symposium, Chinese Academy of Sciences researcher at the Nanjing Institute of geography, Lakes Jiang Jiahu believes that water control project of Poyang Lake wetland in Poyang Lake and its devastating impact on wetland plant, Jiangxi will not do any good.

"Fish of the Poyang Lake will be extinct, finless porpoises migrate due to Habitat fragmentation, obstruction of a duct end of the white cranes and waiting for oriental white stork Bird Habitat will be destroyed, stop the water and may even behave as 98 floods, which move and diffusing of oncomelania hupensis, led to resurgence of epidemic situation of schistosomiasis. "Jiang Jia Hu to 21st century business Herald reporter pointed out.

The face of opposition, Jiangxi has made many changes. For schistosomiasis control in Poyang Lake Water Conservancy construction against questioning, Wu Zhijun, President of the Institute of Jiangxi province Jiangxi University of finance and economic development, said after the completion of higher water, but do not breed of Schistosoma, even controlling epidemic diseases.

"If the Poyang Lake project to build and enhance waterway transport capacity, and promote the development of shipping traffic, and Chang Jiufeng a bench along the Lake will be able to achieve economic growth of urban agglomerations, forming of Jiangxi economic development growth poles, break the fragmentation of current development situation and effective drive in Jiangxi regional economic growth. "Nanchang University, Department of Economics, school of Economics and management associate Zhou Wenjie, pointed out that the benefit of the project is approved.

At present, despite the demonstrated results have still not been announced, but experts believe that after numerous demonstration project of Poyang Lake in Jiangxi province, taking fully into account the need for ecological protection and significant for Poyang Lake ecological economic zone, so the more likely to win approval.

In this regard, the Chinese society of professional Committee, Deputy Director of water resources, water resources and Environment Research Center, Chen Xiaohong Sun Yat-sen University said in an interview with 21st century business Herald, "to solve the problems of the Poyang Lake, must be system-wide, the entire Yangtze River basin based on planning must come from national level alone does not solve the underlying problems in Jiangxi province.
