There are more than 40 rivers flowing
into Bohai such as Yellow River, Hai
River, Luanhe River and Liaohe River ect.
The average annual runoff of these rivers
is about 79.2 billion cubic meters. With the
development of industry, agriculture and
stock raising, land-based sources of
pollution bring a serious impact to the
ecological environment of Bohai Sea. On
the same time, fresh water flowing into the
Bohai Sea is decreasing and weakening the
Bohai Sea ecosystem functions.
Hai basin is an important basin which
drain to Bohai Sea and covers Beijing,
Tianjin, Hebei and other five provinces
(municipalities). This area is the
economical, political and cultural center
of China.

My report has benn divided into 7 parts, Background, Objectives and components of this project, Implementation plan, Characters of this project, actions and outcomes.
Bohai Sea is one of the water bodies in the world which have great ecological significance but are seriously threatened by pollution. It provides important fishery resources to China, Japan, South Korea and North Korea. As well as it is a breeding area for fish and shell of Yellow Sea. From the ecological point of view, Bohai is a large shallow gulf of Yellow Sea. Yellow Sea is continental shallow sea of the Northwest Pacific. It fully shows the global significance of Bohai Sea from the relationship of geography and biology.
There are more than 40 rivers flowing into Bohai such as Yellow River, Hai River, Luanhe River and Liaohe River. The average annual runoff of these rivers is about 79.2 billion cubic meters. With the development of Bohai-rim cities, industry, agriculture and stock raising, land-based sources of pollution bring a serious impact to the ecological environment of Bohai Sea. On the same time, fresh water flowing into the Bohai Sea is decreasing and the Bohai Sea ecosystem functions is being weakened because of the obvious contradiction between the supply and demand of water .
Two main environment issues that Bohai Sea faced are: The land-based pollutants load into Bohai is large, especially the inorganic nitrogen. The flux of freshwater into Bohai sea reduces rapidly, that impacts heavily on the coastwise ecological system.
Hai basin is an important basin which drain to Bohai Sea and covers Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei and other five provinces . This area is the economical, political and cultural center of China. Hai basin freshwater flux is approximately 19.5 billion m3, occupies of about 22% of amount of flow in Bohai Sea.
The Chinese Government has already started to control water pollution and improve water resources management of the river basin. In recent years, the following documents of “Blue Bohai Sea Action Plan”, “Water pollution Prevention and Control Plan of Hai River Basin”, “Integrated Water Utilization Plan of Hai River Basin”, “Overall Plan of Water Transfer Project from South to North” ,etc. have been worked out one after another and are under implementation. Bohai coastal area pollutant resource have been controlled step by step, the environment in coastal area have been improved as before.
Meanwhile, with the efforts of related departments of the Chinese Government and supports of the World Bank, the Global Environment Facility (GEF) grant financed "Integrated Water and Environment Management in Hai River Basin".
The project aims at improving integrated water resources and environmental management, reducing water pollution, thus improving water quality of Bohai Sea.
In September 2004, the project overall went to implement.
Hai River basin is on the west of Bohai Sea. The total area of this basin is 318,000 km2, accounting for 3.3% of Chinese land area.
The total arable land is 10.7 million ha, and irrigation area is 7.3million ha. The main crops are wheat, barley, maize, sorghum, rice, cotton, hemps, beet and tobacco, ect. The population in the basin account for 10% of total population of the nation,the GDP of the region account for 12% of the national GDP,the farming land of the Basin account for 9.0% of the national farming land area and total production of grain account for 10% in China.
In Hai Basin the annual average precipitation is 535mm. In a year, the flood season (June-October) precipitation accounts for about 70-85% of annual, and the maximum annual precipitation is 2.2 times the minimum. In the basin per capita water resources is 300m3, Per ha farmland water resources 230 m3. The quantity of water resources per person and farmland in Hai River basin is the lowest compared with the other major river basins in China.
The total sewage discharge of the basin is 4.8 billion ton in 2004. The waste water discharged from the industrial and construction accounted for 63.2% of the total. The waste water discharged from urban residents accounted for 22.3%. The waste water discharged from third industrial accounted for 14.5%. So far, the entire basin sewage treatment capacity doesn’t reach 50% of the total amount of waste water.
In Hai basin, the contradiction between supply and demand of water resources is obvious and lack of effective control sewage discharge. So that induced a series of ecological environment problems.
According to the statistics, it excessively extracted of groundwater average 4 billion m3 every year up to now. More than 60% inspected river reaches has been severely polluted. And the wetland area in Hai River basin has been reduced from 9 thousand km2 to 1 thousand km2 during 1950s to now. Statistics shows that during 1956 to 1980 about 19.5 billion m3 water flowed into the Bohai Sea every year, but less than 5 billion m3 annual average water flowed into Bohai Sea from 1984 to 2004.
In oder to solve above mentioned problems, the Overall objective of this project is:To promote integrated water and environment management of Hai basin, to realize rational configuration of water resources, to increase the utilization efficiency and benefits of water, to rehabilitate ecological system, to effectively solve the issue of water shortage, to reduce pollution to the Bohai Sea and to really improve the environment quality of Hai basin and Bohai Sea.
the concrete objectives are as follows:
To establish an integrated water and environment management system which suits to the characteristic of Haihe River basin, including the integrated management system based on water rights theory, total pollutants control, compensation policies for the upper stream and down stream, water price policy, sewage license, ground water management, water saving and sewage water reuse.
To decide the mode pilot plans of integrated water resources utilization and pollution control of key regions, including encouraging measures for industrial restructuring, pilot of sewage water treatment plants of small cities, reusing of treated sewage water, agricultural restructuring and management of ground water sustainable utilization.
To strengthen the development capability of Knowledge Management (KM) of the Hai Basin, establish a remote sensing monitoring ET system center, share and communicate the information of water resource and environment between water resource and environment sectors and put ET control and management in practice in the whole basin.
4. According to the demand of new concepts and methods of integrated management, identify projects of water resources managements, water environment control and demonstration plan in key areas. The projects include the Irrigation "true saving" and the ET, the readjustment of the agricultural structure and the sustainable use of ground water management, the measures of industrial restructuring, small urban sewage treatment plants demonstration and pollution control.
To build of sewage treatment plants and approaches their operational modes of medium and small sized cities.
To support the establishment of policy framework and system building of integrated water and environment management of the state level.
Through integrated water resources and environment management in Hai basin will finally reach the targets as follows:
1. Lower the value of farmland comprehensive ET, and control ET under allowing water consumption.
2. Reduce groundwater overdraft to zero and adapt to achieve a balance between exploiting and recharging.
3. Reduce the volume of sewage into rivers within pollutant carrying capacity to meet water quality requirements,Reduce the pollutant load into Bohai sea。
4. make Available surface water resources (including Yellow River diversion, the south-to-north water transfer project) to meet the life and production, at the same time ensure ecological need and change the ecological quality of the Hai River and Bohai Bay.
In the implementation period of Hai River GEF Project, it will put forward Strategic Action Plan (SAP) of Integrated Basin Water Resources and Environment Management up to 2020 and confirm the concrete objectives and tasks. By the end of project, in 2010, at least 10% of the objectives of 2020 will be completed in project areas.

The planed total investment for the project is 33,320,000 USD, of which, the grant of GEF is 17,000, 000 USD and the counterpart funds is 16,320,000 USD. This planed investment is to be decided into two stages.
The preparation period for the project is from July 2002 to December 2003, implementation period is from 2004 to 2010, of which 2004-2007 is the first stage and 2008-2010 is the second stage.
In the first stage is: to carry out strategic studies, to draw out the (IWEMP) PLANs, strategic action plan of Zhangweinan subbasin, put forward the priority actions, Those plans and SAPs should be approved by government.
In the second stage is mainly to implement the planded priority actions, and perfect the IWEMPs and SAPs, draw out the strategic action plan of Hai Basin.
1. To Establish the Cooperation Mechanism of Top-Down and Bottom-Up .The project was prepared incorporating the basic concept that integrated water and environment management (IWEM) is both a top-down and bottom-up set of activities. Top-down activities include establishing laws, policies, regulations standards and water allocations. Bottom-up activities include working with the counties (and the townships, villages and individual water users) in the planning and implementation of IWEM actions, including water rights and well permit administration and enforcement, discharge control, industrial restructuring, real water savings measures, wastewater treatment, treated effluent reuse, etc.
2. To have Maximum Incorporation of Horizontal and Vertical Integration . Horizontal integration includes cross-sectoral cooperation and coordination of actions between water resources and environmental protection sectors, as well as others including agriculture and construction ministries/bureaus. Vertical integration includes direct linking and constant interaction between the Central and Hai Basin component activities and the ZWN subbasin, Tianjin municipality and counties, Beijing municipality and counties, and Hebei province and counties activities.
ET is the most important water consumption and the basis for agriculture irrigation management. The target for water saving in agriculture is to increase the agricultural output while reduce ET value.
The key linkage of water saving and high efficiency use in the Haihe River basin is ET management. To establish remote sensing ET monitoring system (ETMS) in Hai basin, estimate ET value of plain area in the basin by using satellite data and observed weather data and form ET distribution map. To monitor ET by using remote sensing technology provide scientific basis for effective control and management water resources and environment of Hai basin and provide ways and means for increasing management level of basin water resources planning.
Knowledge management (KM) is the process of using departments’ intelligence and knowledge property to create values. It includes knowledge accumulation, knowledge share and knowledge exchange.
The project of KM system of river basin integrated water and environment management will be studied and developed at Haihe River basin level through full cooperation of Haihe River Conservancy Commission of MWR and SEPA. It will be popularized and applied in 16 key counties/districts and Zhangweinan Canal sub basin, Tianjin Municipality, Beijing Municipality and Hebei Province. It can provide a shared platform and means for water quality and quantity management of river basin and regional water resources management.
Established Project Steering Committee and Joint PMOs between water sector and environment protection sector at all levels. Leaders of MWR and SEPA paid close attention on the project, cooperation mechanism between sections has been established.
The minister of MWR Wang Shucheng, vice minister Zai Haohui, and the vice minister of SEPA Zhang Lijun, all of them made important opinion for GEF Hai Project to strongly promotes project developing.
Now, the cooperation mechanism between water conservancy sector and environment protection sector has been established. At the same time, in project implementation, the working model of integrated water and environment management (IWEM) has been established, includes participation of stakeholders, both a top-down and bottom-up activities ect. This model has been agreed and appreciated by government officers, experts and water users. It has came into effect in solving problems of water resources and water environment.
According to GEF project general design requirement, water sector and environment protection sector jointly organized studies and begun to draw integrated water and environment management plans of Tianjin City and 16 pilot counties, and strategic action plans of Hai Basin and Zhang Weinan sub-basin, cooperated by agriculture, construction, land resources sectors. It is the first one that one plan is drawn jointly by two sectors in China.
IWEMPs would not be reports in the bookcase, They will be implemented to improve water resources and water environment management. In drawing of IWEMPs, horizontal and vertical integration were taken, and It encourages stakeholders participation, such as water user association(WUA), and so on.
In order to effectively solve the water and environment problem water sector and environment protection sector will closely cooperated in water management, point and nonpoint sources pollution control, Water-licensing and discharge licensing, information exchanging ect.
KM basic information platform includes information exchange system and database share system. Both sectors of water resources and environment protection maintain and support the system data together. It will provide technical service and decision supported for integrate water and environment management of Hai basin. At present experts from water resources and environment protection work together for establishment of Hai Basin KM system.
project monitor and evaluation(M&E) is important to strengthen GEF Hai basin project management. Now, the management information system(MIS) has been developed successfully and used in project. It increases the project management efficiency. CPMO and PMOs at all levels established project M&E groups. M&E groups in PMOs at all levels carried out M&E according to united arrangement and standard. Presently, M&E system has been established in essence, and baseline survey report has been accomplished.
In implementation of GEF project, up to now, 19 WUAs in five project counties of Hebei province have been established and 12 WUAs have been established in Tianjin project area and 5 WUAs have been established in Beijing project area. The bottom-up developing model of WUA and CDD have been advocated and adopted in the project area of Hebei province, Tianjin municipal and Beijing municipal.
Demonstration projects addressing water rights management, well permit system, development, utilization and management of groundwater in brackish area in Guantao and Cheng-an counties of Hebei Province have carried out. It carried out integrated water saving measures and irrigation participation management of WUA. They strengthened water using management in different sectors, rural and urban areas. The groundwater development and application were effectively controlled. and regional integrated ET value (net consumption) reduced. It ensured the sustainable utilization of water resources and sustainable social and economic development objectives.
The data of the table shows that the water consumption is reduced and the yield is increased.
After project started, PMOs at all levels organized more than 50 training workshops. There are 4800 persons of technicians, managers and farmers from basin(sub basin), province(city), county(city, district) who have been trained.
More than 30 study tours , More than 480 persons participated in these study tours. International consultant assistance group came to the project for 5 times to promote implementation of the project. There were 6 delegations for oversea training and study tour to Germany, Switzerland, America, Canada to study integrated water and environment management, and technology of water resources management based ET management.
Through trainings and workshops at different levels, project concept is promoted to be understood in different level. From the training, study tour and consultation, technicians and managers who participated got new ideas and understood new trend and technical measures in international integrated water and environment management. It makes a good foundation for project implement.
