The Binnan industrial project



The Binnan industrial project will affect the living environment of the Black-faced Spoonbills. The Binnan idustrial project planned to build an industrial harbour for an export purpose.
However, this construction would use over 30% of Chigu lagoon, while over 5% usage of lagoon was considered to be harmful to the environment.
The harbour would block wave action between inland and ocean water that might
gradually lead to coastal erosion. The shoreline erosion would cause the
disappearance of Tsengwen wetland, thus in turn would threaten many wild life
habitats inhabiting coastal areas such as black-faced spoonbills. The number of Blackfaced spoonbills might finally decreased.[1]&[2]
