In 2001, when further planned building works threatened large areas of the lake banks and surrounding land, Chiu Chin-he and others decided to salvage the plants from the imminent danger of the bulldozers. After obtaining permission from the owners of a privately owned scenic area and family shrine on the outskirts of Ilan City named Chienhutang, they were able to transfer the plants from Shuanglienpei to the estate's ponds and fields.
而九十年間的護岸整地工程殺傷力太大，邱錦和等人決定先把植物從怪手下搶救出來，隨後徵得宜蘭市私人風景區陳氏家廟「鑑湖堂」主人首肯，將救下山的植物收容在鑑湖堂的池塘和田地，事情經媒體報導，陸續又有熱心地方人士及羅東運動公園提供水域收容。
