[Reporter Chen Wenchan/Kaohsiung Report] In order to improve the water quality of Fengshan River, the Environmental Protection Bureau of Kaohsiung City issued 6 inspections and fined 2.23 million yuan this year. The Water Conservancy Bureau built 2 new pipes to extend Fengshan River from the Fengshan Water Resources Center to match the existing pipelines. In Caogong Town, the upper reaches of Fengshan Creek, a total of 18,000 tons of runoff water is injected every day to improve the water quality of Dadong and Baoan Wetland Park and Fengshan Creek, creating a beautiful water-friendly environment.

There are many factories in the upper reaches of Fengshan River, resulting in poor water quality. The Water Conservancy Bureau promotes sewage user takeover and water purification projects. The Environmental Protection Bureau announced that the upstream section of Fengshan River Dadong Bridge is a water pollution control area. This year, it inspected the Fengshan River Basin and reported 6 cases. A total of 2,231,500 yuan was fined, and a total of 1,442.2 kilograms of waste was cleaned up, and a total of 1,041.5 tons of river waste (including sediment) was dredged.

In the recent dry season, the amount of water is insufficient and the water level is low, resulting in the sediment sediment prone to odor. The Water Conservancy Bureau invested 4.3 million yuan to build 2 new pipelines, extending from the Fengshan Water Resources Center to the Zhonglun Middle School. The designed water injection capacity can reach 3,000 tons per day. , The designed subsidy water volume next to the upstream Bo'ai Bridge can reach 6,000 tons per day, and it will be poured into Fengshan River to improve water quality.

In addition, the Water Conservancy Bureau originally had a pipeline extending from the Fengshan Water Resources Center to Caogongzhen, the upper reaches of Fengshan River. The road collapsed and damaged the pipeline due to heavy rain. The project has been completed and repaired, and it is injected into the ecological pools of Caogongzhen, Dadong and Baoan Wetland Park.

According to the Water Conservancy Bureau, the released water from the Fengshan Water Resources Center is not only open to the public for free, but also can be used as a water subsidy during the dry season. The three pipelines can provide a total of 18,000 tons of discharged water per day to improve the water quality of Fengshan River and maintain the fish ecology during the dry season. Create a beautiful hydrophilic environment.

The Environmental Protection Bureau pointed out that the number of seriously polluted stations in Fengshan River has dropped from 16 stations in 2010 to 5 stations this year, an improvement rate of 69%. The water quality of some rivers is clear and there are fish migrating.

The Water Conservancy Bureau provides 18,000 tons of runoff water every day to improve the water quality of Fengshan Creek. Fish can be seen swimming in it, creating a beautiful water-friendly environment.
