保護(hù)行動動態(tài)

阿查法拉亞盆地護(hù)水者（路易斯安那州，美國）最近與美國陸軍工程兵團(tuán)新奧爾良分區(qū)（MVN）簽署了一份諒解備忘錄，旨在促進(jìn)負(fù)責(zé)任的環(huán)境管理和重要自然資源的可持續(xù)利用。根據(jù)該協(xié)議，MVN承諾與阿查法拉亞盆地護(hù)水者每季度會面，并通過適當(dāng)渠道共享可公開的信息。目標(biāo)是更好地管理當(dāng)?shù)匾吧鷦游锖屠嫦嚓P(guān)者所依賴的盆地生態(tài)系統(tǒng)。作為回報，阿查法拉亞盆地護(hù)水者同意向社區(qū)利益相關(guān)者提供關(guān)于MVN在阿查法拉亞盆地內(nèi)的計劃和擬議項目的準(zhǔn)確信息。

下薩斯奎哈納護(hù)水者（賓夕法尼亞州，美國）最近對約克縣的一家廢品場提起了訴訟，指控其違反聯(lián)邦和州清潔水法。該協(xié)會希望此次法律行動能促使該廢品場恢復(fù)合規(guī)。訴訟稱，J&K Salvage 公司因固體廢物處理不當(dāng)，導(dǎo)致了未經(jīng)授權(quán)和過度的污染。據(jù)護(hù)水者協(xié)會稱，自2024年底以來，J&K Salvage 公司一直在沒有許可證的情況下向水道排放污染物。經(jīng)過三年對該廢品場管道排放物的采樣，協(xié)會發(fā)現(xiàn)了未經(jīng)授權(quán)的污染物，并對附近的濕地造成了污染。已確認(rèn)的污染物包括金屬和有毒化學(xué)物質(zhì)，如PFAs（全氟烷基化合物），這些物質(zhì)會損害水質(zhì)和人類健康。

薩蒂拉護(hù)水者（佐治亞州，美國）正在慶祝，因為一個擬建在薩蒂拉河岸邊的商業(yè)家禽設(shè)施的建設(shè)已被暫時叫停。一群科菲縣（Coffee County）居民在高級法院提起訴訟，尋求禁令以阻止該商業(yè)養(yǎng)雞場的繼續(xù)建設(shè)和運(yùn)營。這個擬建設(shè)施將是密西西比河以東最大的養(yǎng)雞場，一次可容納多達(dá)三百萬只雞。它計劃建在薩蒂拉河50年和100年一遇的洪泛區(qū)內(nèi)。居民們擔(dān)心該設(shè)施離他們的房產(chǎn)、農(nóng)田和商業(yè)地點太近，以及它可能對健康造成的影響。雖然這項臨時禁令阻止了建設(shè)，但并未停止該設(shè)施的規(guī)劃和準(zhǔn)備工作。法院文件還指出，大型家禽養(yǎng)殖場可能產(chǎn)生過量的磷。居民們擔(dān)心該設(shè)施會導(dǎo)致負(fù)面健康影響、環(huán)境問題、房產(chǎn)貶值以及禽流感爆發(fā)的風(fēng)險。

薩旺尼護(hù)水者與圣瑪麗斯護(hù)水者（佐治亞州，美國）正在慶祝阿拉巴馬州一個采礦項目的結(jié)束，因為煤礦工人已被買斷，運(yùn)營已正式停止。在保護(hù)基金會（The Conservation Fund, LLC）、詹姆斯·M·考克斯基金會（James M. Cox Foundation）、堅毅集體（Holdfast Collective，Patagonia旗下）以及所有佐治亞州和佛羅里達(dá)州的護(hù)水者的支持下，這家總部位于阿拉巴馬州的礦業(yè)公司終止了可能造成重大環(huán)境破壞的計劃。2023年，Nutrien公司更新了其在佛羅里達(dá)州漢密爾頓縣（Hamilton County）的磷酸鹽采礦許可，打算在該地點十年內(nèi)結(jié)束運(yùn)營。然而，磷酸鹽礦藏向北延伸得更遠(yuǎn)。作為回應(yīng)，多個縣市已通過決議，敦促州政府保護(hù)整個奧克弗諾基沼澤（Okefenokee Swamp）、圣瑪麗斯河以及佐治亞州南部所有的黑水河（blackwater rivers）。專門負(fù)責(zé)收購高危土地的非營利組織保護(hù)基金會宣布，已購買了奧克弗諾基沼澤附近的土地，這正是阿拉巴馬州公司最初計劃開采的區(qū)域。這項收購立即叫停了一個科學(xué)家和環(huán)保主義者擔(dān)心可能對北美最大的黑水沼澤之一造成廣泛破壞的項目。

孟加拉國護(hù)水者與波蘇爾河護(hù)水者（孟加拉國）為紀(jì)念2025年世界自然保護(hù)日和世界老虎日組織了活動。第一場活動在達(dá)卡的沙莫利公園（Shamoli Park）舉行，旨在宣傳保護(hù)自然的團(tuán)結(jié)信息，推動國家保護(hù)運(yùn)動，并激發(fā)對環(huán)境問題更深入的認(rèn)識。發(fā)言者強(qiáng)調(diào)，恢復(fù)河流和自然生態(tài)系統(tǒng)可以極大地造福社區(qū)。參與者舉著橫幅和標(biāo)語牌，強(qiáng)調(diào)這一日子的重要性并突出了環(huán)境保護(hù)的必要性。第二場活動在蒙格拉烏帕齊拉禮堂（Mongla Upazila Auditorium）舉行，舉辦了一場名為“拯救孫德爾本斯（Sundarbans），拯救老虎”的宣傳活動。活動包括討論會、藝術(shù)比賽和集會等環(huán)節(jié)。發(fā)言者強(qiáng)調(diào)了保護(hù)老虎的重要性，并指出在過去25年中，已有30只老虎死亡——10只死于自然原因，14只死于與當(dāng)?shù)厝说臎_突。老虎不僅面臨人類的威脅，還因受污染的水源導(dǎo)致的疾病而受苦，這凸顯了當(dāng)局迫切需要解決有毒捕魚行為并防止非法老虎販運(yùn)的緊迫性。

NEWS FROM THE MOVEMENT

Atchafalaya Basinkeeper (Louisiana, U.S.) recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the New Orleans District of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (MVN) to promote responsible environmental stewardship and the sustainable use of vital natural resources. In this agreement, MVN commits to meeting with Atchafalaya Basinkeeper quarterly and sharing publicly releasable information through appropriate channels. The goal is to better manage the Basin ecosystem, which local wildlife and stakeholders depend on. In return, Atchafalaya Basinkeeper agrees to provide accurate information to community stakeholders regarding MVN programs and proposed projects within the Atchafalaya Basin.

Lower Susquehanna Riverkeeper Association (Pennsylvania, U.S.) has recently filed a lawsuit against a York County scrapyard, alleging violations of federal and state clean water laws. The association hopes this legal action will encourage the scrapyard to return to compliance. The lawsuit claims that J&K Salvage is responsible for unauthorized and excessive pollution due to improper handling of solid waste. According to the Riverkeeper Association, J&K Salvage has been discharging pollutants into waterways without a permit since the end of 2024. After three years of sampling the discharge from the scrapyard's pipes, the association found unauthorized pollutants and contamination of nearby wetlands. The contaminants identified include metals and toxic chemicals, such as PFAs, which can harm both water quality and human health.

Satilla Riverkeeper (Georgia, U.S.) celebrates as the construction of a proposed commercial poultry facility along the banks of the Satilla River has been temporarily halted. A group of residents in Coffee County filed a lawsuit in Superior Court seeking an injunction to stop the continued construction and operation of the commercial chicken farm. This proposed facility would be the largest chicken farm east of the Mississippi River, capable of holding up to three million birds at a time. It is planned to be built within the 50- and 100-year floodplains of the Satilla River. Residents are concerned about the facility's proximity to their properties, agricultural land, and business locations, as well as its potential impact on their health. While this temporary injunction prevents construction, it does not halt the planning and preparation for the facility. The court filing also notes that a large poultry farm could produce excessive amounts of phosphorus. Residents fear that the facility would lead to negative health effects, environmental issues, decreased property values, and the risk of bird flu outbreaks.

Suwannee Riverkeeper and St. Mary’s Riverkeeper (Georgia, U.S.) are celebrating the conclusion of a mining project?in Alabama, as coal miners have been bought out and operations are officially halted. With the support of The Conservation Fund, LLC, the James M. Cox Foundation, the Holdfast Collective (Patagonia), and all the Waterkeepers of Georgia and Florida, the Alabama-based mining company has ended plans that could have caused significant environmental damage. In 2023, Nutrien renewed its phosphate mining permit in Hamilton County, Florida, intending to conclude operations at that site within ten years. However, phosphate deposits extend further north. In response, various counties and cities have passed resolutions urging the state to protect the entire Okefenokee Swamp, St. Mary’s River and all the blackwater rivers of South Georgia. The Conservation Fund, a nonprofit organization specializing in acquiring at-risk lands, announced the purchase of property near the Okefenokee Swamp, where the Alabama-based company originally planned to mine. This acquisition immediately halted a project that scientists and environmentalists feared could have caused extensive damage to one of North America's largest blackwater swamps.

Waterkeepers Bangladesh and Poshur River Waterkeeper (Bangladesh) organized events in honor of World Nature Conservation Day 2025 and World Tiger Day. The first event, held at Shamoli Park in Dhaka, aimed to promote a message of unity in protecting nature, advance the national conservation movement, and inspire greater awareness of environmental issues. Speakers emphasized that restoring rivers and natural ecosystems can significantly benefit the community. Participants carried banners and placards underscoring the significance of the day and highlighting the need for environmental protection. The second event took place at the Mongla Upazila Auditorium and featured an awareness program titled “Save the Sundarbans, Save the Tigers.” This event included activities such as discussion sessions, an art competition, and a rally. Speakers stressed the importance of tiger conservation, noting that over the past 25 years, 30 tigers have died—10 from natural causes and 14 due to conflicts with locals. Tigers are not only facing threats from humans but are also suffering from diseases caused by poisoned water, highlighting the urgent need for authorities to address toxic fishing practices and prevent illegal tiger trafficking.
