Who will rescue these trees that have been "buried alive"?
"Come on! On the demolition site outside our community, some people are destroying the green, and the construction personnel directly use the excavator to push the trees down and bury them alive, who will rescue these trees that are 'buried alive'? Mr. Sun, a resident of the Amber Garden Community, said that the site next to the community was originally a plot of Nanjing Compressor Factory, and since last month, the construction team has entered the construction site to demolish the original building on the site. However, in the course of the construction work, everyone found an abnormality.
"These tall trees on the construction site are not removed, but buried directly!" Just remove the tree, why bury it? It's a shame to do that. Mr. Sun said that many citizens have seen the scene of the big tree being "buried alive", and everyone feels sorry that the tree that grows so thick is buried alive. What exactly is going to happen here? Why bury these trees "alive"? Citizens hope that the relevant departments will pay attention to this matter.

The Chengguan Law Enforcement Brigade intervened to track down the buried trees
According to the Nanjing Urban Greening Regulations, excavating and destroying flowers and trees is an act of harming urban greening that is explicitly prohibited. After receiving the report, the law enforcement personnel of the Yuhuatai District Chengguan Law Enforcement Brigade immediately rushed to the scene. In the face of on-site investigation by law enforcement officers, the construction director of the site said that it is difficult to ensure the survival rate of transplanting trees in this weather, so they adopted this decisive approach of burying trees.
"It's all small trees, and we haven't moved the big trees." The person in charge of on-site construction said lightly. "Obviously, these are all big trees, thicker than your thighs, so who let you bury them?" The reporter asked.
A road manager who claimed to be the person in charge of the compressor plant plot said that the demolition plot belonged to the Fengsheng Group, which would be collected and stored in the near future, in order to make the land have the conditions for collection and storage as soon as possible, only then did the workers operate in violation of the law to rush the construction period.
"We have stressed that the construction unit does not move the tree. Because the original houses here are three or four meters high, mechanical in and out, when demolished, it is possible to touch the big tree, which may cause the destruction of the big tree. Buried, I don't know. Road manager said.
Fan Kai, a law enforcement officer of the Yuhuatai District Chengguan Law Enforcement Brigade, said that after on-site verification, most of the buried trees are magnolias, and there are four or five trees that are being buried at the scene.
"There were trees lying in the foundation pit, and we took a look at the trees on the spot and measured the trunk diameter of the trees, about 20 centimeters. We must confirm with the relevant departments, including the ownership unit of the tree, to investigate and investigate. Fan Kai introduced.
According to the Nanjing Municipal Urban Greening Regulations, such acts of green destruction will be ordered by the competent greening administrative department to stop the infringement, restore the original state, compensate for losses, and impose a fine of between 500 yuan and 5,000 yuan; if the circumstances are serious, a fine of between 5,000 and 20,000 yuan.
