The removal of open-pit garbage in Hoh Xil has been completed and entered into normal management.

  China News Service, Xining, June 24 (Li Jiangning) The reporter learned from the official of Qumalai County, Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province on the 24th that up to now, the garbage belt at Wudaoliang on the Qinghai-Tibet Highway has been completely cleared.

  According to reports, Qumalai County, Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province recently urgently dispatched 25 classified garbage bins from the county seat. The Sanjiangyuan National Park Management Office and Qumalai Management Office publicized and guided the business premises door by door, and the Qumalai County Market Supervision Administration comprehensively clarified the implementation of the three-package responsibility in front of individual industrial and commercial households, and carried out garbage sorting and plastic-limiting work.

  On June 20th, the report that "the huge open-air garbage belt reappears in Hoh Xil area of Qinghai-Tibet Plateau" attracted the attention of the outside world. In this regard, the government of Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture in Qinghai and the government of Qumalai County attached great importance to it. The secretary of Qumalai County Party Committee led the executive deputy magistrate of the government, the Qumalai Management Office of Sanjiangyuan National Park and the leaders of relevant departments to the incident and disposed of it overnight.

  After field investigation, the garbage belt is located around Wudaoliang in Hoh Xil Nature Reserve and 200 meters west of K3012 of National Highway 109. According to administrative divisions, the Qinghai-Tibet Highway is under the jurisdiction of Qumalai County on the east side and Zhiduo County on the west side, where resident herders live scattered. As the only way to enter Xizang, it has naturally become a stop for freight cars to rest and self-driving tourists to stay on the Qinghai-Tibet line. Because it is located in the protected area, there is no landfill, and it is 402 kilometers away from Qumalai County and 452 kilometers away from Zhiduo County, it is a difficult problem to manage the domestic garbage of hotels, and tourists throw garbage in the past.

  In the early morning of June 21st, Qumalai County urgently dispatched 21 transport trucks, 2 loaders and 4 excavators to centrally clean the open-air garbage belt, and under the coordination of the provincial and state housing and construction departments, transported the garbage to Xidatan landfill, 153 kilometers away from Wudaoliang, for standardized landfill.

  On the morning of the same day, Qumalai and Zhiduo counties in Yushu Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture organized nearly 1,000 ecological managers to clean up the garbage along the road from unfrozen spring to Fenghuo volcano for more than 200 kilometers.

  "Next, together with the Sanjiangyuan National Park Administration, we will hold a joint meeting with the traffic management department of Xizang and Golmud City of Haixi Prefecture to discuss the establishment of a long-term mechanism for garbage disposal along the Qinghai-Tibet Highway. For example, in accordance with the principle of territorial management, we will implement the three guarantees in front of the merchants along the way, introduce the reward and punishment mechanism for garbage disposal along the way, and at the same time increase publicity and guidance for surrounding merchants, people, tourists and drivers to avoid and prevent such situations from happening again. " Bao Chenglin, member of the Standing Committee of Qumalai County Committee, told the China News Service reporter.

  It is reported that the 200-kilometer section of the Hoh Xil section has entered the stage of normal management, and relevant departments of all parties are negotiating and docking a long-term mechanism for garbage disposal along the Qinghai-Tibet Highway.

  Hoh Xil is one of the regions least affected by human beings in the world, an important habitat for rare wild animals such as Tibetan antelope and wild yak, and the most typical and well-preserved natural landscape in the world.
