Ministry of Ecology and Environment requires local punishment and follow-up supervision
35 ministries approved 25 construction projects with illegal problems
□ Our reporter Yan Jianrong
Since the "Thirteenth Five-Year Plan" period, some key construction projects approved by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment have had problems with the "three simultaneous" environmental protection issues and the independent acceptance rate of completion as high as 71.4%.
The Ministry of Ecology and Environment has recently publicly announced that from November to December 2020, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment and the ecological environment departments of 19 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities) have reviewed the 35 key construction projects approved by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment since the 13th Five-Year Plan. At the same time, special inspection results were carried out for the implementation of the system and the independent acceptance of environmental protection after completion.
The inspection found that 25 of the 35 construction projects had problems with the implementation of the “three simultaneous” system of environmental protection and the independent acceptance of environmental protection after completion.
The Ministry of Ecology and Environment has publicly exposed 25 illegal projects and related illegal issues.
The Ministry of Ecology and Environment pointed out that the emergence of the problem reflects that some local governments, eco-environmental departments and construction units still have insufficient implementation of environmental supervision responsibilities and insufficient implementation of the main responsibilities of environmental governance.
The Ministry of Ecology and Environment requires local governments to impose penalties and follow-up supervision on 25 illegal projects.
10 projects with unfulfilled main responsibilities were named
According to the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the inspection found that some construction units did not strictly implement the main responsibility for environmental protection, and some construction units did not write environmental protection chapters in the preliminary design documents of the project, did not implement measures to prevent environmental pollution and ecological damage, and investment budgets for environmental protection facilities.
For example, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment has such a problem with the 20 million tons/year heavy oil processing project of Guangdong Petrochemical of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, which is being constructed in Jieyang City, Guangdong.
According to the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, there is no environmental protection in the preliminary design documents of the product terminal, crude oil terminal, refining area, a combined 3 million tons/year delayed coking unit, a combined atmospheric and vacuum distillation unit, and a three combined catalytic gasoline hydrogenation unit. Chapter,
Down to the third edition
Succeed to the first edition
The measures to prevent and control environmental pollution and ecological damage and the investment budget of environmental protection facilities have not been implemented, and there is no specific investment budget of environmental protection facilities in the preliminary design document of the seven joint oil refining area.
During the inspection, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment also found that some construction units did not strictly follow the environmental assessment documents and approval requirements during the construction of the project to implement pollution prevention and control measures, build supporting pollution prevention facilities, and change the production process and scale without authorization.
The Ministry of Ecology and Environment pointed out that the new Beijing-Tangshan intercity railway project, the refining and chemical integration project of Shenghong Refining & Chemical (Lianyungang) Co., Ltd., the 20 million tons/year heavy oil processing project of Guangdong Petrochemical of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, and the Jiuxian County of Shanxi Coal Import and Export Group Open-pit Coal Industry Co., Ltd. merger and reorganization integration project changes, Shanxi Lu'an Mining (Group) Co., Ltd. high-sulfur coal clean utilization, petrochemical and electric heating integrated demonstration project, Shanxi Xiaohuigou Coal Industry Co., Ltd. Xiaohuigou Mine 3 million tons / 9 construction projects including the annual new construction change project, the 40 million tons/year refining and chemical integration project of Zhejiang Petrochemical Co., Ltd., the Jinghe Dongzhuang Water Conservancy Project in Shaanxi Province, the Shaanxi Xiaobaodang Mining Co., Ltd. Xiaobaodang No. 2 Mine Construction Project, etc. The project has such problems.
"Shaanxi Xiaobaodang Mining Co., Ltd. Xiaobaodang No. 2 mine construction project is particularly typical. The scale of the project has changed from 8 million tons of raw coal to 13 million tons per year. Ton/hour coal-fired boilers, newly-built return air shaft exhaust air waste heat recovery system.” The Ministry of Ecology and Environment pointed out that the project has undergone major changes during the construction process and has not resubmitted the environmental assessment documents for approval.
The inspection also found that some construction units were not strict in checking procedures such as irregular procedures, incomplete content, and low reliability of conclusions during the process of independent acceptance.
According to the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the new Beijing-Xiongan New Area Intercity Railway Project, Shanxi Lu’an Mining (Group) Co., Ltd. High-sulfur Coal Clean Utilization Oil-Chemical-Electric Integrated Demonstration Project, Ningbo-Zhoushan Port Fishing 300,000 Tons of Oil Such problems exist in five projects including the Yulin Shenhua Energy Co., Ltd. Qinglongsi Coal Mine Project, the 4 million tons/year indirect coal liquefaction demonstration project environmental assessment change of Shenhua Ningxia Coal and the comprehensive utilization of coal slime project.
The Ministry of Ecology and Environment specifically pointed out that Shanxi Xiaohuigou Coal Industry Co., Ltd. Xiaohuigou Mine 3 million tons/year new construction change project is a typical one. The project did not implement the requirements of the environmental impact assessment approval and installed the cloth bag dry type of the raw coal crushing and screening system without authorization. The dust removal system was changed to a wet fan dust removal system, the gangue underground filling was changed to be contracted to Shanxi Xintai Construction Company Construction Co., Ltd., and the mine water treatment station scale was changed from 7,200 cubic meters per day to 576 cubic meters per day. A major change in the project was resubmitted to the EIA document for processing, and it was not stated in the acceptance, but it passed the independent acceptance on September 23, 2019.
A project in Shanxi has not been inspected and put into production for a long time without rectification in place
The Ministry of Ecology and Environment stated that the inspection found that some local eco-environmental departments did not implement the deepening of the reform of "delegation, management, and service" in the field of eco-environment. The phenomenon of "emphasizing pre-event and neglecting the post-event" still exists, and failed to design, construct, and accept construction projects. , The implementation of environmental protection "three simultaneous" during production or use and various environmental management regulations have been carefully carried out one by one supervision and inspection, and there are a large number of problems that illegal acts are not investigated and dealt with in a timely manner and are not in place.
According to the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, Shenghong Refining & Chemical (Lianyungang) Co., Ltd. refining and chemical integration project, Guangdong Petrochemical 20 million tons/year heavy oil processing project of China Committee, Zhejiang Petrochemical Co., Ltd. 40 million tons/year refining and chemical integration project, Jinsha The Batang Hydropower Station in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, and the optimization and adjustment of the PetroChina Yunnan 10 million tons/year oil refining project (PetroChina-Saudi Aramco joint venture Yunnan 13 million tons/year oil refining project) 4 project areas are inspected by the ecological environment department on average once a month, but the environmental impact assessment documents And the issue of non-implementation of approval requirements still exists.
According to the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, Shanxi Lu’an Mining (Group) Co., Ltd. has a long-term “uninspected and put into production” behavior in the clean utilization of high-sulfur coal, oil, chemical, and electric heating integration demonstration project since 2017, and the territorial ecology and environment department has not urged construction units according to law. Rectification is in place.
Part of the project's government commitments are not fulfilled
"In order to increase investment promotion, the government made a lot of promises when handling environmental assessment procedures for some construction projects, but the government promises were not fulfilled or not fulfilled as expected after the projects were implemented." The Ministry of Ecology and Environment said that the inspection found 4 projects. Involve such issues.
Among them, the Guangdong Petrochemical 20 million tons/year heavy oil processing project of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the Jieyang City Government promised to complete the air pollutant reduction measures and water pollutant reduction measures to be completed by the end of 2020, but were not completed as scheduled.
Up to now, 8 of the 149 companies that should reduce nitrogen oxides have not yet completed, 14 of the 50 companies that should reduce sulfur dioxide have not yet completed, and 7 of the 25 companies that should reduce smoke and dust have not completed, and should be reduced 42 of the 135 companies with volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have not yet completed, and the 36 companies that should use shore power for docking ships, 18 have yet to complete, and 5 urban sewage treatment plants in Huilai County should be completed and put into operation The factories are under construction.
