Hoʻonohonoho kahi kikowaena hydropower i ka pū waikele no ka mālama ʻana i nā holoholona lōhiu ma Tanzania

ʻO ke kūkulu ʻia ʻana o nā mea kanu wai wai nui loa i loko o ka Selous Game Reserve ma ka ʻaoʻao hema o Tanzania ua hoʻāla ʻia ka puʻupuʻu i nā mea mālama holoholona hihiu e hopohopo nei e ʻike i nā hopena maikaʻi ʻole i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka mākaʻikaʻi i loko o kēia wahi mālama holoholona hihiu nui loa ma ʻApelika.

Makaʻu ka poʻe akamai i ka mālama ʻana e ʻike i ka mea kanu mega-power ma Stiegler's Gorge ma Selous Game Reserve i mea e pale ai i ka mālama ʻana i nā holoholona hihiu a me ke ʻano i loko o kēia mālama holoholona hihiu nui loa o ʻApelika, i hoʻopilikia nui ʻia e nā poachers elephant.

Makau lākou i ka Stiegler's Gorge hydropower hanauna hanauna e paipai i nā ʻoihana hana ma nā ʻāpana ʻākau o ka Selous Game Reserve, kaulana no ka mālama holoholona holoholona ma ʻApelika.

ʻO ke aupuni Kelemānia ma o Frankfurt Zoological Society (FZS) a me ka WWF Fund for Nature nā mea kōkua nui i ka mālama ʻana i ka Selous Game Reserve ma o nā papahana anti-poaching a me ke kaiāulu.

ʻO ka World Bank kahi ʻoihana honua ʻē aʻe e hoʻolako kālā nei i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka mākaʻikaʻi ma Southern Tanzania kahi e hāʻule ai ka Reserve i waena o nā wahi mākaʻikaʻi nui.

ʻO ke kūkulu ʻia ʻana o ka mea kanu hoʻoulu wai wai hoʻopaʻapaʻa ma Stiegler's Gorge i loko o ka Selous Game Reserve e manaʻo ʻia e hoʻomaka i ka hopena o Pepeluali 2018 i ka manawa i loaʻa ai i ke aupuni Tanzanian ka mea ʻaelike kūpono no ka pāhana mega-power.

Ua mālama ʻia kahi hui kuhina nui ma Dodoma, ke kapikala hou o Tanzania no ke kūkulu ʻana i ka hale mana wai 2,100 Megawatt i loko o ka Selous Game Reserve.

ʻO kā lākou hālāwai Kuhina i manaʻo e hoʻoikaika i ke kūkulu ʻana i ka papahana hydropower nui ma Stiegler's Gorge no ka hoʻokō ʻana i ka manaʻo a Pelekikena John Magufuli e hoʻonui i ka lako mana ma Tanzania. Manaʻo ʻia ʻo Stiegler's Gorge Hydropower e uku ʻia he $ 2.6 biliona.

ʻO ka luna nui o ka Stiegler's Gorge Power Project Engineer Leonard Masanja i ʻōlelo i nā tenders e hoʻopaʻa i kahi ʻaelike no ka hoʻokō ʻana i hoʻomaka ʻia ma Pepeluali.

Ua haʻi hou aku ʻo Pelekikena Magufuli i kāna hoʻolālā e kūkulu i kahi papahana mega-power generation ma Stiegler's Gorge. ʻO ka electrification a me ka ʻenehana nā kumuhana waiwai nui ma lalo o ka hoʻolālā ʻelima makahiki o ka Pelekikena Magufuli 2016/17 a 2020/21.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia e ʻimi ana kāna aupuni e kūkulu i ka Stiegler's Gorge Hydro-power plant ma ke ʻano he hoʻolālā e hoʻonui ai i ka lako mana a hoʻoikaika i ka hoʻomohala ʻoihana ma Tanzania.

Ua loaʻa i ke kūkulu ʻia ʻana o ka pāhana hydropower ma Selous Game Reserve ka hoʻohewa a me ke kūʻē ʻana mai nā pūʻulu mālama holoholona a me ke ʻano, me ka ʻōlelo ʻana e hōʻeha nui ia i ke kaiapuni a me ke kaiaola i ka Selous Game Reserve, ka ʻāina wao nahele nui loa o ʻApelika.

ʻO ka Stiegler's Gorge Hydropower generation station a me ka US$ 215 miliona Kidunda Dam ma Morogoro region, nā mea a pau i loko o ka kaiaola Selous i hoʻohuli i nā kūʻē a puni ka honua, e kāhea ana i ke aupuni o Tanzania e ʻimi i nā mea ʻē aʻe e hoʻoulu ai i ka uila, ka hapa nui o ke kinoea maoli.

Ua ʻōlelo ka WWF i kāna hōʻike 2017 e pili ana ka hopena o ka pāhana Hydropower i loko o ka Selous Game Reserve i ka mākaʻikaʻi a me ka mālama holoholona hihiu ma ka mālama ʻana me nā hopena maikaʻi ʻole i 200,000 poʻe e nalowale ana ko lākou ola ma o ka mahiʻai a me ka lawaiʻa a hiki i ka delta Rufiji. ma ka moana Inia a me na mokupuni ma o aku.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo WWF International i kāna hōʻike e pili ana ka Stiegler's Gorge hydroelectric power project i ka pōʻino i nā ʻāina wai koʻikoʻi o ke ao holoʻokoʻa ma kona wahi o Rufiji, Mafia a me Kilwa Marine Ramsar Site.

E kūkulu ʻia ka Stiegler's Gorge Hydropower Project ma kahi awāwa 8-km ka lōʻihi a me 100 mika ka hohonu. Noho ka awawa ma waenakonu o ka Selous Game Reserve, kekahi o nā wahi holoholona hihiu nui loa o ka honua i pale ʻia a nui loa, ʻo ia ka nui o Switzerland, wahi a WWF i kāna hōʻike.

Ua noi aku ka poʻe kaiapuni i ke aupuni e hoʻopaʻa i ka papahana, nona ka hana e hana ʻia ma ka puʻuwai o Selous Game Reserve, aia ma ka papa inoa o ka UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Ua lilo ka Reserve i United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Paena Hoʻoilina o ka Honua no ka waiwai nui o ke ao holoʻokoʻa o kona kaiaola kū hoʻokahi i ka makahiki 1982.

Eia naʻe, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Pelekikena Magufuli ua paʻa kona aupuni e hoʻokō i ka papahana, i hoʻomaka ʻia ma mua o 40 mau makahiki i hala. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia, ʻo ke kūkulu ʻia ʻana o ka pāhana e loaʻa kālā ma ka ʻāina e ke aupuni ponoʻī o ka hoʻoulu ʻana i nā kumuwaiwai kūloko.

ʻO ka Selous Game Reserve, ka hoʻoilina waiwai a me ka makamae i nā kānaka, piha me nā holoholona hihiu ʻole, mai ka liʻiliʻi liʻiliʻi a hiki i ka makua kāne Elepani kahiko loa. Eia nō naʻe, ʻo kēia mālama ʻana, ke kaena nei i ka nui o nā elepani ma ka honua - ʻoi aku ma mua o 110,000 mau puaʻa, he microcosm ia o ka mōʻaukala o kēia ʻāpana o ka honua.

E uhi ana ma luna o 50,000 kilomika square, ʻo ka Selous Game Reserve kekahi o nā mālama holoholona hihiu nui loa i mālama ʻia ma ka honua a ʻo kekahi o nā wahi wao nahele nui hope loa o ʻApelika. Hāʻawi ka Reserve i US $ 6 miliona mai nā mākaʻikaʻi i kēlā me kēia makahiki.
