China News Service, May 8 (Xinhua) According to the official Weibo news of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, according to the "Regulations of the Central Ecological Environmental Protection Inspection Work", the Central Second Ecological Environmental Protection Inspection Team (hereinafter referred to as the Inspection Team) launched a second round of Fujian Supervise the ecological environment protection, and carry out special inspections on the destruction of the marine ecological environment. With the approval of the Party Central Committee and the State Council, the inspection team recently gave feedback to the Fujian Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government. The inspector pointed out that the concept of putting emphasis on development rather than protection in some places in Fujian has not been fundamentally reversed, and some even demanded that protection make way for development.

  The inspector pointed out that although Fujian Province has made important progress in eco-environmental protection, it still faces many problems in dealing with the relationship between development and protection. Some local and departmental ecological priorities, and the concept of green development are not strong enough. The attitude towards environmental problems is not firm enough, and the work is not in place.

  First, some localities and departments are not yet in place to implement the central government's decision-making and deployment.

  Some localities and departments have a blind optimism about the local environmental quality. They have a poor understanding of the extreme importance, long-term and arduous nature of fighting pollution control and accelerating the construction of ecological civilization, and have a weak sense of urgency and responsibility. During the stationing period, the inspection team received a large number of reports from the masses, which involved as many as 947 problems involving deforestation and land occupation, indiscriminate digging, river occupation, and illegal sea use. Individual localities and departments ignored the demands of the masses, and the masses expressed a strong problem of stinking and disturbing the residents in the Nigel Provincial Development Zone, Yong'an City, Sanming, which has long delayed the lives of the surrounding residents.

  Ningde City does not have a thorough understanding of the rectification of the inspectors, and is not firm in its attitude. Based on the lack of construction land, the construction of sewage treatment facilities has been seriously lagging for many years. Since 2013, there has been no new sewage treatment capacity in the central urban area. In 2018, the domestic sewage treatment rate was actually less than 50%, and a large amount of sewage was discharged directly into the environment. The construction of sewage treatment capacity in Xiamen has been lagging behind for a long time, and it is required to build and expand 700,000 tons / day of sewage treatment capacity by the end of 2019. It will not start the construction of 515,000 tons / day of sewage treatment capacity until the first half of 2019, and only increase it by July 2019 The sewage treatment capacity is 65,000 tons / day, and a large amount of sewage is discharged directly, which seriously affects the water quality of the coastal waters.

  In some places, the concept of stressing development rather than protecting it has not been fundamentally reversed, and some even require protection to make way for development. In order to make room for the construction project, Ningde City illegally adjusted the scope and functional zoning of the Water Sand Mangrove Nature Reserve in the Sanduao Wetland in 2012 and 2015 twice, resulting in a sharp reduction of the area of ​​the nature reserve to 2442.64 hectares, a reduction of 94 %. The Sanming City Party Committee Government and the provincial housing urban and rural construction, natural resources and other departments have not fulfilled their environmental protection management responsibilities in accordance with law, and found reasons and openings for the retention of mining rights for the two limestone mines of Yongan Jinyinhu Cement Co., Ltd. The ecological protection of Shilin National Key Scenic Spots has a greater impact.

  The second is that some inspectors are not strict and correct.

  The inspector found that some localities and departments acted rashly during the rectification of the inspector. Zhangzhou City's rectification and reform implementation has been weak, and construction should start in March 2018 and the Zhangzhou North (Hua'an) and Zhangzhou West (Pinghe) Waste Incineration Power Plants that will be put into operation at the end of 2019 have not yet started construction as of the time of inspection, and the city's domestic waste disposal capacity is short. At 1,700 tons per day, some waste treatment plants have to operate overloaded, and the problem of landfill leachate pollution is particularly prominent. The Fujian Petrochemical Group Meizhou Bay Chlor-Alkali Industry Company is "mixed with factories and villages", which has outstanding environmental risks. The rectification plan requires the company to complete the relocation by the end of 2021. However, the Fujian Petrochemical Group and Quanzhou City have not yet substantially started the relocation of the enterprise until the inspection; the Provincial Department of Industry and Information Technology and the Provincial Petrochemical Group unauthorizedly relax the requirements and postpone the time limit for the relocation to 2025.

  Zhangzhou Youli Graphite Co., Ltd. ’s long-term excessive emission of waste gas from Zhangan Youli Graphite Co., Ltd., which was complained by the public, was dealt with in a perfunctory manner by the government and related departments of Zhangzhou Hua’an County. The inspector found that the waste gas of the enterprise was still exceeding the standard, and even used the infiltration pit to discharge strong acid wastewater. In order to deal with the inspectors, the Huaan County government also forged the special meeting minutes, deliberately made frauds, and were of a bad nature. After the first round of inspectors pointed out that some places in Fujian Province have invaded coastal wetlands, some departments have not yet implemented the wetland occupation and compensation balance system as required. The original Provincial Department of Oceanography and Fisheries approved three sea-use projects in violation of regulations in 2018, all of which failed to implement relevant national wetland protection requirements, occupying 117.5 hectares of wetland.

  Zhangpu County, Zhangzhou City, failed to implement the inspection and rectification requirements, and the illegal mining of stone mines was very serious. In 2018, there were 98 illegally mined mines in the county, with a mountain destruction area of ​​nearly 10,000 acres; there are currently 15 licensed decorative stone mines, 14 of which have illegal cross-border mining activities, and there are large “hanging white” phenomena around the mining area. In response to the inspectors, the local even placed potted seedlings on the site where ecological restoration should be carried out, and laid the turf directly on the concrete floor, blatantly falsified.

  The government of Minhou County, Fuzhou City, has poor supervision over the fraud of enterprises. Minxin Building Materials Co., Ltd. reported in 2018 that it has completed the conversion of biomass boilers and received government subsidies for boiler refueling. However, in order to reduce costs, it is still using coal in large quantities. unsolved. During the on-site inspection, in order to cover up the fact that coal was burned for a long time, the company temporarily covered the biomass pellet fuel on the coal pile in an attempt to confuse it.

  Third, there is still a shortage of marine ecological environment protection.

  The inspectors found that some localities and departments were not effective in protecting important marine functional areas. Fujian Dinghaiwan Industrial Co., Ltd. changed the way of using the sea without permission and illegally constructed the Lianjiang Dinghaiwan mountain and sea sports and leisure project, but since 2016, the provincial development and reform, marine and fisheries departments have successively determined it as a key project in Fujian Province and a major marine economic project. , Fuzhou City will be included in the first batch of city-level characteristic township creation list. In 2018, in order to promote the construction of the project, the Lianjiang County Government specially researched and issued the "Controlling Detailed Plan for the Eastern Area of ​​Hasha in Dinghai Bay".

  In April 2017, in order to promote the construction of Gulei Refining and Chemical Integration Project, Zhangzhou Gulei Port Economic Development Zone Management Committee entrusted Fujian Zhanglong Construction Investment Group Co., Ltd. to implement illegal reclamation projects without obtaining sea-use procedures. , Occupying the Dongshan Bay wetland, as of October 2018, a total of 5,820 acres of land were reclaimed. The local marine and fishery department has ordered the project to stop construction twice, but the Gulei Port Economic Development Zone and Fujian Zhanglong Construction Investment Group Co., Ltd. continued to carry out reclamation until completion. From 2012 to 2019, Xiangnei Village, Shuitou Town, Nan'an City continued to fill the sea illegally in the Anhai Bay area of ​​Nan'an City, occupying more than 500 acres of the wetland at Dayingxi River Estuary, causing severe degradation of local ecosystem functions and significantly deteriorating the water quality of the coastal waters. The Quanzhou Municipal Government has repeatedly tried to legitimize the illegal reclamation by adjusting the marine functional zoning without the approval of the superior marine department.

  Pollution prevention and control of coastal waters in some places are not in place, and the upgrading of sewage treatment plants in Jiangyin Gangcheng Economic Zone of Fuqing City has lagged. Since 2015, nearly 20,000 tons of industrial sewage have been discharged into Xinghua Bay every day, with a total nitrogen concentration of 110 mg / L, 4.5 times over standard. Fuzhou Yaolong Chemical Group Company has set up a private dark pipe to secretly discharge industrial wastewater through rainwater drains for a long time. Jiangyin Town and Xincuo Town have a population of 80,000, and they produce more than 10,000 tons of domestic sewage every day for long-term direct discharge into Xinghua Bay. The water quality near Xinghua Bay continues to deteriorate.

  Fourth, the inspector also found some other outstanding problems.

  The inspector found that the problem of illegal sales of unqualified oil products in Fujian Province has not been effectively curbed. Since 2017, the province has investigated and dealt with 141 unsatisfactory vehicle diesels sold at gas stations, and the market supervision department has fined them all. Tracing the source. The market supervision, commerce, transportation and other departments of Fujian Province have unclear responsibilities, and there is a gap in the supervision of the fuel stations installed in enterprises. A large number of fuel stations in enterprises operate under the guise of "self-use fuel" and illegally sell unqualified diesel.

  The ecological environment of the Minjiang River Basin cannot be ignored. There are currently 2897 small rural hydropower units registered in the Minjiang River Basin, of which more than 80% are diversion-type hydropower stations, which have a negative impact on the downstream river ecosystem. A large amount of industrial and construction waste is randomly piled on the Wulong River in the Menkou Industrial Zone of Minhou County, and the hidden environmental risks are prominent. There are 13 drainage ditches and sewage outlets along the river. During the on-site inspection, all 5 drainage outlets were seriously exceeded. Fujian Taiming New Century Technology Co., Ltd., located on the south bank of Minjiang River in Changle District, Fuzhou, built the "1 million tons annual processing of stainless steel coils (solution heat treatment) project", illegally felled 119.5 acres of woodland, involving 21.06 cubic meters of forest stock, illegal A large amount of stone is mined for the construction of wharf projects and destroys the ecology along the Minjiang River.

  The inspectors requested that Fujian Province should strengthen the overall ecological protection and systematic comprehensive governance of important river basins such as the Minjiang River; it is necessary to promote the construction and operation of urban and rural environmental infrastructure as a whole; strengthen the supervision of natural reserves and ecological protection of wetlands, and accelerate the non-coal mine ecology Repair and increase efforts to protect the marine ecological environment. It is necessary to take serious accountability in accordance with regulations and disciplines, and to instruct the relevant departments to conduct further in-depth investigations, clarify responsibilities, and hold the accountable in accordance with relevant regulations. Those who need to carry out compensation for ecological environmental damage or need to file a public interest litigation shall be dealt with in accordance with relevant regulations.

  The inspector emphasized that Fujian Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government should study and formulate rectification plans based on the inspector's report, and report to the Party Central Committee and the State Council within 30 working days. The rectification plan and the implementation of the rectification shall be disclosed to the society in accordance with relevant regulations.

  The inspection team also sorted out the issues of accountability for the found ecological and environmental damages, which have been transferred to the Fujian Provincial Party Committee and Provincial Government in accordance with relevant regulations.
