保護行動動態(tài)

美國華盛頓哥倫比亞特區(qū)安納科斯蒂亞河護水者，正為該河流慶祝一項重大勝利。司法部長施瓦爾布（Schwalb）宣布，華盛頓燃氣公司（Washington Gas）已同意積極控制持續(xù)滲入安納科斯蒂亞河的有害污染。該公司如今需負責安裝一套全新的浮動攔污柵與過濾系統(tǒng)，以攔截并防止水體污染；此外，還需在河岸線沿線的土壤中修建一道新的防護屏障，配合該行政區(qū)的持續(xù)監(jiān)測工作，且若出現(xiàn)任何違規(guī)行為，需繳納罰款。

美國特拉華州特拉華河護水者宣布，美國環(huán)境保護署（U.S. EPA）已敲定特拉華河費城至威爾明頓段（全長 38 英里）的新水質(zhì)標準。這一決定源于一份旨在更新過時標準的法律請愿書及相關訴訟。新規(guī)定強調(diào)了維持良好水質(zhì)對水生生物的重要性，尤其針對該河流中獨特的大西洋鱘魚種群。特拉華河護水者瑪雅?K?羅瑟姆（Maya K. Rossum）對該決定表示贊賞，強調(diào)其制定基于科學依據(jù)，且具有經(jīng)濟價值。特拉華河護水者組織高級律師凱西?馬納漢（Kacy Manahan）指出，此次規(guī)則制定體現(xiàn)了《清潔水法》（Clean Water Act）在保護水生生物方面的效力。

美國北卡羅來納州 French Broad 河護水者與上紐河護水者（均隸屬于 MountainTrue 環(huán)保組織），正牽頭開展北卡羅來納州西部的環(huán)境清理工作，并評估海倫颶風（Hurricane Helene）對該地區(qū)造成的長期環(huán)境影響。這場颶風引發(fā)了災難性洪水，將包括聚氯乙烯（PVC）管道、工業(yè)廢料及家庭廢棄物在內(nèi)的數(shù)十噸垃圾沖入當?shù)睾恿髋c溪流。

在一筆為期18個月、金額1000萬美元的州政府撥款支持下，MountainTrue組織的工作人員已從五個流域的十余條河流中清理出超過 75 噸垃圾。該組織同時表達了擔憂：倉促推進的災后恢復工作已破壞了敏感的水生棲息地，并對瀕危物種構(gòu)成威脅；他們正推動未來制定更符合生態(tài)保護需求的災害應對規(guī)劃。

美國北卡羅來納州 Sound Rivers 環(huán)保組織的紐斯河護水者兼倡導項目主任薩曼莎?克羅普（Samantha Krop），憑借在利克溪流域取得的兩項重大勝利，獲得了南方環(huán)境法律中心（Southern Environmental Law Center）的認可。多年來，斯威特布賴爾住宅區(qū)開發(fā)項目產(chǎn)生的泥沙不斷侵蝕利克溪流域，導致水質(zhì)惡化，使魚類及其他水生生物難以生存。Sound Rivers 組織對斯威特布賴爾住宅區(qū)下游的水質(zhì)進行了監(jiān)測，兩年多來記錄到大量嚴重違規(guī)行為，其中僅違規(guī)排污行為就超過 300 起。經(jīng)過多年的倡導與訴訟，斯威特布賴爾住宅區(qū)的開發(fā)商最終同意采取措施，防止馬丁支流與颶風溪出現(xiàn)泥沙污染。

本月早些時候，孟加拉國護水者組織（Waterkeepers Bangladesh）及盟友在達卡舉行了一場象征性抗議活動，旨在保護孫德爾本斯（Sundarbans）、希爾沙魚（Hilsha）及鹽業(yè)生產(chǎn)免受煤炭污染。包括布里甘加河護水者、孟加拉國護水者組織執(zhí)行董事沙里夫?賈米勒（Sharif Jamil）在內(nèi)的發(fā)言者警告稱，蘭帕爾（Rampal）、派拉（Payra）及馬塔爾巴里（Matarbari）三座發(fā)電廠正破壞生態(tài)系統(tǒng)、阻礙希爾沙魚洄游，并威脅鹽業(yè)生產(chǎn)，進而引發(fā)糧食安全問題。此次活動是 “亞洲能源網(wǎng)絡”（Asian Energy Network）與 “亞洲人民日期與發(fā)展運動”（Asian Peoples Movement on Date and Development）發(fā)起的全球行動的一部分，呼吁取消煤炭項目，并緊急轉(zhuǎn)向可再生能源。

NEWS FROM THE MOVEMENT

Chattahoochee Riverkeeper (Georgia, U.S.) has requested that LaGrange Mayor Arrington and the city council enact a 90-day moratorium on data center development. This pause would allow the city to create an ordinance that will guide future data center developments. CRK signed a letter stating that this request is a reasonable and cautious step that elected officials can take to engage with an active and motivated community. Data centers require more than just typical economic development projects. The Georgia Department of Community Affairs is currently revising the rules governing the Developments of Regional Impact application and review process to address data centers as a distinct type of development.

Anacostia Riverkeeper (Washington D.C., U.S.) is celebrating a significant victory for the river. Attorney General Schwalb has announced that Washington Gas has agreed to actively contain hazardous pollution that has been seeping into the Anacostia River. The company will now be responsible for installing a new floating boom and filtration system to capture and prevent pollution in the water. Also, they will construct a new barrier in the soil along the shoreline, comply with ongoing monitoring by the district, and pay penalties for any noncompliance.

Delaware Riverkeeper (Delaware, U.S.) announced that the U.S. EPA has finalized new water quality standards for a 38-mile section of the Delaware River between Philadelphia and Wilmington. This decision follows a legal petition and litigation aimed at updating outdated standards. The new regulation highlights the importance of maintaining good water quality for aquatic life, particularly for the unique population of Atlantic sturgeon found in the river. Maya K. Rossum, Delaware Riverkeeper, praised the decision, emphasizing its basis in science and economic value. Kacy Manahan, Senior Attorney at the Delaware Riverkeeper, noted that this rulemaking demonstrates the effectiveness of the Clean Water Act in protecting aquatic life.

French Broad Riverkeeper and Upper New Riverkeeper, part of MountainTrue, (North Carolina, U.S.) are leading efforts to clean up and assess the long-term environmental impacts of Hurricane Helene across western North Carolina. The storm caused catastrophic flooding and washed tons of debris, including PVC pipe, industrial waste, and household materials, into local rivers and streams. With support from a $10 million, 18-month state grant, MountainTrue crews have already removed more than 75 tons of debris from a dozen rivers across five watersheds. The organizations are also raising concerns about how rushed recovery efforts have damaged sensitive aquatic habitats and endangered species, and are pushing for more ecologically informed disaster planning going forward.

Neuse Riverkeeper and Director of Advocacy at Sound Rivers (North Carolina, U.S.), Samantha Krop, was recognized by the Southern Environmental Law Center for two major victories for the Lick Creek watershed. For years, sediment from the Sweetbrier residential development has eroded the Lick Creek watershed, degrading water quality and making it difficult for fish and other aquatic wildlife to survive. Sound Rivers has monitored water quality downstream of Sweetbrier and documented severe and pervasive violations for over two years, including more than 300 instances of permit violations. After years of advocacy and litigation, the developer of Sweetbrier has agreed to take action to prevent sediment pollution in Martin Branch and Hurricane Creek.

Waterkeepers Bangladesh (Bangladesh) and allies staged a symbolic protest in Dhaka to protect the Sundarbans, Hilsha, and salt from coal pollution earlier this month. Speakers, including Sharif Jamil, Buriganga Waterkeeper and executive director of Waterkeepers Bangladesh, warned that the Rampal, Payra, and Matarbari power plants devastate ecosystems, block the migration of Hilsha, and threaten salt production, creating food insecurity. As part of a global action by the Asian Energy Network and Asian Peoples Movement on Date and Development, the event demanded the cancellation of coal projects and an urgent shift to renewable energy.
