The Trump administration has commenced the construction of a segment of border wall in the Big Bend region of West Texas, a move that marks the first significant construction in that area of the US-Mexico border, though the administration's plans have encountered fierce opposition locally.

川普政府已著手於德州西部大彎地區某段邊境牆之修築此舉標誌著美墨邊境該區域首度展開重大建設該政府之計劃於當地遭遇強烈反對

The commencement of construction constitutes a significant milestone in the administration's $46 billion initiative, which is designed to fortify the border line with walls, barriers, roads, and technology, thereby fulfilling a pivotal campaign pledge of President Donald Trumpthe completion of the border wall.

建設之啟動該政府460億美元計劃之重要里程碑此計劃旨在以牆垣屏障道路及技術沿邊境線佈防以兌現總統唐納德·川普之一項關鍵競選承諾——竣工邊境牆

This development coincides with the assertion by Customs and Border Protection that its pace of constructing the border wall along the US-Mexico frontier has already doubled.

此舉適逢海關與邊境保護局表示於美墨邊境修築邊境牆之速度已然倍增

In a statement to reporters, Customs and Border Protection said that "installation of border wall panels is underway" at a 47-mile stretch in Hudspeth County, West Texas, designated as Big Bend 1.

海關與邊境保護局於致記者之聲明中,「邊境牆面板安裝正在進行中」,其址位於德州西部哈德斯佩斯縣一段綿延47英里名為大彎1號之區域。

The Big Bend area, which spans roughly 500 miles in total, stretching from parts of Hudspeth County south of El Paso all the way to Lake Amistad, is made up of five project segments.

大彎地區總長約500英里埃爾帕索以南哈德斯佩斯縣部分地區迤邐延伸至阿米斯塔德湖由五個項目區所構成

The agency asserted that the first panels had already been erected on September 15.

該機構聲稱首批面板業已於9月15日豎立

In a map published on the agency's website and intended to present the latest updates on border wall construction across the entire southern border, a photograph shows a crane hoisting a 30-foot-tall steel wall panel into position while construction workers look on from the sidelines.

在該機構網站所發布旨在呈現全南部邊境牆建設最新動態之地圖中一幀照片顯示一台起重機正將一塊30英尺高之鋼製牆板吊裝就位建築工人們則於一旁觀看

This recent activity bears no connection to a border infrastructure project near Big Bend National Park.

這一新近活動大彎國家公園附近的一項邊境基礎設施工程並無關聯

In that project, the government, as a gesture of goodwill toward its opponents, has suspended construction.

在該工程中政府為向反對者釋出善意已暫緩建設

In the far vaster Big Bend region of Texas, Customs and Border Protection is confronted with opposition from a united front forged by landowners, environmental organizations, business owners, and ranchers.

在德州幅員更為遼闊的大彎地區海關與邊境保護局面臨著來自土地所有者環保組織企業主牧場主所結成的聯合陣線反對

They maintain that this remote stretch of land is not an area through which undocumented immigrants pour in with any frequency.

他們表示這片偏遠地帶並非非法移民頻繁湧入的區域。

On Friday, activists declared that even though the panels were at the installation stage, they would persist in their struggle against border infrastructure projects in the rest of the Big Bend region.

活動人士於週五宣稱,縱使面板正處於安裝階段,彼等仍將持續抗爭,反對大彎地區其餘部分之邊境基礎設施項目。

Clara Benson is one of the founders of the "No Big Bend Wall Coalition," an alliance that has waged an unrelenting campaign against the plans of Customs and Border Protection.

克拉拉·本森身為「不要大彎牆聯盟」的創始人之一該聯盟持續不懈地反對海關與邊境保護局的計劃

In an interview on Friday, she stated that the organization had repeatedly received reports that trucks were hauling supplies into remote stretches along the Rio Grande, while contractors had been clearing sites for the stockpiling of materials.

於週五受訪時指出該組織屢屢接獲通報,有卡車將物資運入格蘭德河沿岸的偏遠地帶而承包商則一直在清理場地以供堆放物資之用

However, in an interview conducted in Washington, D.C., she asserted that she and other members of the coalition were there to meet with lawmakers; the organization and other groups, she said, would persist in opposing the wall project spanning the entire region.

然而,她於華盛頓特區受訪時聲稱,她本人與聯盟中其他成員正於該地會晤立法者;該組織及其他團體將持續抵制橫貫整個地區的築牆計劃。

"Whatever the outcome may be, we shall continue to fight for this land.

無論結局如何我們都將繼續為這片土地奮戰

We will most certainly fight to the very end," Benson declared.

我們必將戰鬥到底,」本森說道

"If you speak with the people of West Texas, they will tell you that even if they succeed in building it, we will strive to compel them to tear it down.

你若與西德州的人交談他們會告訴你即便他們將其建成我們也會力爭讓他們將其拆除

Thus, this struggle is by no means over."

因此這場鬥爭尚未終結。」

The disclosure of this information comes as the government is accelerating a plan to fortify the entire length of the border, constructing a line of defence with thirty-foot-tall steel bollard walls, barriers designed to stop vehicles from crossing, newly cut patrol roads, and an array of technologies intended to deter and detect migrants or smugglers crossing the border.

此消息披露之際,政府正加速推進一項計劃:沿整條邊境線佈防,以三十英尺高的鋼製柱式牆、旨在遏止車輛越境之屏障、新闢巡邏道路,以及各式用於威懾與偵測移民或走私者越境之技術,構築防線。

U.S. Customs and Border Protection has stated that they are constructing barriers along this 2,000-mile border with Mexico at an average pace of 12 miles per week, and that they recently achieved a milestone: since the second Trump administration took office, 200 miles of new barriers have been built.

海關與邊境保護局表示他們正沿著這條與墨西哥接壤綿延2000英里的邊境以平均每週12英里的速度構築屏障並且近日締造了一項里程碑自第二屆川普政府走馬上任以來已修築了200英里的新屏障

The rate cited earlier this year by Rodney Scott, the head of the agency, is only half the average pace of 12 miles per week.

該機構負責人羅德尼·斯科特於今年早些時候所援引的速度,其兩倍方為每週12英里的平均速度

The opposition confronting the agency spans a diverse array of forces: environmental organizations, small towns anxious that the border wall might cause flooding within their jurisdictions, Native Americans who assert that the construction desecrates sacred sites, and landowners who allege that the building infringes upon their property.

該機構所面臨的反對橫跨多方勢力環保組織憂心邊境牆恐致其轄區洪患小鎮聲稱建設行徑褻瀆聖地美洲原住民,以及指控建設侵犯其土地土地所有者

In Texas, opposition has largely centred on the agency's proposed plans for Big Bend National Park, which lies along the Rio Grande in the south-western part of the state and draws visitors from around the world.

在德州反對聲浪多半聚焦於該機構針對大彎國家公園所擬定的計劃該公園坐落於該州西南部格蘭德河沿岸吸引著來自世界各地遊客

Beyond the park, however, much of the land along the river, both upstream and downstream, belongs to private landowners, many of whom have consistently resisted government action.

然而在公園外河流上下游大部分土地歸私人土地所有者所有其中許多人始終抵制政府的行動

Earlier this week, landowners, ranchers, and business owners in the Big Bend region, together with a nonprofit organization dedicated to preserving the area's landscape and heritage, jointly filed a lawsuit in an effort to halt the government's plans.

本週早些時候,大彎地區之土地所有者、牧場主及企業主,聯同一致力於保存該地區景觀與遺產之非營利組織,共同提起訴訟,以期遏止政府之計劃。

Activists and landowners likewise appeared at county board meetings, pressing their elected representatives not to collaborate with the wall-building contractors engaged by Customs and Border Protection; indeed, numerous landowners refused to allow government officials or contractors to set foot on their land to conduct surveys.
