  On March 25, 2022, the third central ecological and environmental protection inspection team entered the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region to carry out inspection work. Tumet Zuoqi responded to the findings of the central environmental protection inspection team due to illegal mining of sand and gravel in its territory to form sand pits and damage the ecological environment. Insufficient rectification of the problem has resulted in the problem not being effectively managed.
