　　Central affirmation, local support, people’s praise and remarkable results.

　　The central environmental protection inspector is powerful: from 2016 to 2017, it completed the full coverage of 31 provinces across the country.

　　The intensity of pollution control is unprecedented, and the speed of environmental quality improvement is unprecedented.

　　"China Economic Weekly" reporter Zhang Yujing Li Yonghua Liu Zhaopu | Reports from Beijing, Jiangxi, Hunan, Jiangsu and Guizhou

　　(This article was published in the 43rd issue of China Economic Weekly in 2017).

　　"Building an ecological civilization is a Millennium plan for the sustainable development of the Chinese nation."

　　"Accelerate the reform of the ecological civilization system and build a beautiful China."

　　From a series of important conclusions made by the Supreme Leader General Secretary in the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, we can see the importance of ecological civilization construction.

　　"Pollution prevention and control" is also listed as the "three major battles" to build a well-off society in an all-round way, along with preventing and resolving major risks and getting rid of poverty accurately.

　　As Li Ganjie, Minister of Environmental Protection, said, the report of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China put forward a series of new ideas, new requirements, new goals and new arrangements for the construction of ecological civilization and the protection of ecological environment.

　　In the five years since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the construction of ecological civilization has achieved remarkable results, which can be seen from a set of data: in the past five years, China’s forest coverage rate has been continuously improved, from 21.38% in 2012 to 22.3% in 2016; In 2016, the average concentration of PM2.5 in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei, Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta decreased by more than 30% compared with 2013. Since the implementation of the "Water Ten Articles", the proportion of surface water I-III sections has increased from 6% to 67.8%, and the proportion of inferior V sections has decreased from 9.7% to 8.6%… …

　　Li Ganjie described China’s achievements in the field of ecological environmental protection and ecological civilization construction in the five years since the 18th National Congress with five "unprecedented": unprecedented awareness, unprecedented efforts in pollution control, unprecedented frequency of system introduction, unprecedented strictness in supervision and law enforcement, and unprecedented speed in improving environmental quality.

　　Behind the continuous improvement of many environmental data, in the past five years, a major reform measure of ecological civilization system and mechanism — — The central environmental protection inspector undoubtedly played a great role.

　　Since the central environmental protection inspector launched a pilot project in Hebei Province in January 2016, in the two years from 2016 to 2017, the central environmental protection inspector has completed the full coverage of 31 provinces across the country, with more than 17,000 people accountable. Li Ganjie summed up the effect of the central environmental protection inspector with "praise from the people, affirmation from the central authorities, local support and problem solving".

　　Why does the central environmental protection inspector show such power? What is the rectification situation of the inspected area after the inspector group left? Is there a situation that "the inspector group left and the pollution came back"? How can local governments and enterprises achieve a win-win situation between environmental protection and development? The reporter of China Economic Weekly will take you around to have a look.

　　Why is the central environmental protection inspector so powerful?

　　From environmental supervision to environmental supervision, from "supervising enterprises" to "supervising government"

　　Central environmental protection inspectors launched a pilot project in Hebei in January 2016. By August 2017, the fourth batch of central environmental protection inspectors had completed their stationing in eight provinces including Sichuan and Jilin. So far, from 2016 to 2017, the central environmental protection inspector has completed the coverage of all provinces in the country.

　　On July 1, 2015, the 14th meeting of the Central Leading Group for Comprehensive Deepening Reform deliberated and adopted the Environmental Protection Supervision Plan (Trial) (hereinafter referred to as the Supervision Plan), and took the places with prominent environmental problems, frequent major environmental incidents and poor implementation of environmental protection responsibilities as the early inspection targets, focusing on the implementation of the Party Central Committee’s decision-making and deployment, solving outstanding environmental problems and implementing the main responsibility of environmental protection.

　　In fact, environmental protection supervision is the normal state of environmental protection work, but opening the central environmental protection inspector has put pressure on many provinces. Traditional environmental monitoring, even cross-regional monitoring, only targets enterprises. Although pollution problems can be found, a lot of energy is spent on point source supervision, which solves local problems, and often "monitoring leads to pollution again".

　　"A problem, reported many times, although it is handled at different levels, will eventually be transferred back to the local, and the local ‘ Land policy ’ The arbitrary decision-making of leaders and human relations will directly affect the solution of the problem, so a problem is still a problem after several years. " An environmental protection industry insider told reporters.

　　The central environmental protection inspector, from the environmental protection department leading to the central leading, from focusing on enterprises to "focusing on supervision and supervision", is regarded as a major change in China’s environmental supervision model.

　　The "Inspector Program" requires that the inspection work be carried out in the form of the central environmental protection inspector group to the provincial and municipal party committees and governments and their relevant departments, and sink to some municipal party committees and government departments. Environmental protection inspectors emphasize that "the party and the government share the same responsibility" and "one post and two responsibilities", which means that local party committees accept supervision together with the government, and the inspection results serve as an important basis for the assessment and evaluation of the appointment and dismissal of leading cadres.

　　According to the requirements, the inspection team will be stationed for about one month. During the inspection period, each inspector group will set up a special duty telephone and postal box to receive letters and calls from the inspected provinces on environmental protection. Other letters and visits that are not within the scope of acceptance will be handled by the inspected regions, units and relevant departments according to regulations. A mobilization meeting should be held before the inspector’s action begins, and a feedback meeting should be held after it ends. The rectification plans of all provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities shall be submitted to the State Council within 30 days, and the rectification situation shall be submitted within 6 months, and shall be disclosed to the outside world simultaneously.

　　Generally speaking, inspectors are stationed in three stages: provincial-level inspectors, inspectors in sinking cities, and sorting, analyzing and archiving. The three stages have their own emphasis and are promoted in turn.

　　The first stage is the inspector at the provincial level, and the inspector group has a clear division of labor. Some people talk to a number of provincial leaders, including provincial party Committee secretaries and governors, as well as the main leaders of provincial departments closely related to environmental protection, such as the letter, development and reform, and housing construction. Others read materials, visit inquiries, hold meetings to study and focus on problems.

　　The second stage is the sinking inspector, the purpose of which is to do a thorough job and verify and collect evidence for the problems at the provincial level. Generally, no new problems are found. Some specific issues need special supplementary inspectors.

　　The third stage is the stage of combing, summarizing and writing reports, which integrates provincial inspectors, sinking inspectors and accepted report clues to write inspector reports. Every question clue in the report is supported by dozens of materials such as inquiry transcripts.

　　Take Hebei, the province where environmental protection inspectors first entered, as an example. Gao Jianmin, Party Secretary and Director of the Environmental Protection Department of Hebei Province, said that Hebei Province was the first in the country to establish an environmental protection inspection system, and the provincial party committee and government set up an inspection team. From June 2016 to June 2017, Hebei Province inspected its 13 cities, achieving full coverage of environmental protection inspectors throughout the province. At the same time, Hebei Public Security Department also established an environmental police team earlier, specializing in cutting pollution with swords and cracking down on criminals.

　　"At present, it should be said that the initial reform goal has been achieved, and from the actual operation point of view, it has exerted the greatest effect in implementing the strictest ecological environmental protection system and strict environmental supervision." Gao Jianmin said.

　　The central environmental protection inspector achieved remarkable results: 135,000 cases were accepted, and the completion rate exceeded 98%.

　　How strong is the central environmental protection inspector? In the two years from 2016 to 2017, the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group has completed the coverage of 31 provinces across the country, and the number of accountable people has exceeded 17,000.

　　Take the fourth batch of central environmental protection inspectors as an example. On September 5, 2017, the Ministry of Environmental Protection revealed that the sinking phase of the fourth batch of central environmental protection inspectors was over, and all localities further strengthened the work of border supervision and border reform. As of September 4, the fourth batch of environmental protection inspectors filed 226 cases for investigation and detained 285 people; 2914 people were interviewed and 4129 people were held accountable.

　　According to the State Environmental Protection Inspector’s Office, as of September 4, 8 inspectors had received 44,134 reports from the masses, accepted 32,277 valid reports, and after combing, merging and repeating reports, a total of 29,189 were transferred to the inspected places; 18,565 cases were investigated and dealt with in each inspected place, among which 5,625 cases were filed for punishment, with a penalty amount of 280,878,300 yuan.

　　How to evaluate the effect of environmental protection inspectors? Will the inspector group come back as soon as it is polluted, or will many enterprises have the problem of "you come and I stop, you go and I continue to produce"? How to form a long-term and effective shock in the supervision mechanism? What kind of specific deployment will there be in the future?

　　In view of these problems, Li Ganjie, Minister of Environmental Protection, said that the Central Environmental Protection Inspector is a major reform measure of the ecological civilization system and mechanism promoted by the General Secretary of the Supreme Leader after the 18th National Congress. "The central environmental protection inspector who lasted for two years should say that the effect is very good. Someone summed it up and asked the people to praise it, the central government affirmed it, local support and solve problems."

　　Specifically, Li Ganjie said, environmental protection inspectors first greatly enhanced the awareness of strengthening ecological environmental protection and promoting green development in all aspects, and the situation of neglecting ecological environmental protection in the past has obviously changed. Secondly, it has effectively solved the outstanding environmental problems around a large number of people.

　　According to statistics, in the process of four batches of central environmental protection inspectors, a total of 135,000 reports from the masses were accepted, except for some repeated cases. After the merger, 104,000 reports were handed over to the local authorities, and so far 102,000 reports have been settled. About 80,000 of them involve garbage, oil fume, odor, noise, enterprise pollution and black and odorous water problems.

　　Environmental protection inspectors also promoted the transformation and upgrading of local industrial structure. Li Ganjie said that many places regard the central environmental protection inspector as a good opportunity and motivation to promote green development and supply-side structural reform, and take this opportunity to strengthen pollution prevention and control of enterprises, internalize environmental costs, and let law-abiding enterprises have a more level playing field, especially those scattered, chaotic and polluted enterprises, which has better solved the prominent problem of "bad money driving out good money" in some places.

　　"Central environmental protection inspectors have also effectively promoted the improvement and perfection of local environmental protection and ecological civilization mechanisms. Many places regard the central environmental protection inspector as a good opportunity, carefully sort out and analyze problems, and speed up the establishment and improvement of relevant laws and regulations. There are about three or four hundred rough statistics. " Li Ganjie said.

　　In response to the question of whether there will be "inspectors leaving and pollution coming back" in the future, Li Ganjie said that special "mobile and acupoint-pressing" inspectors will be organized for key areas, key industries and key issues at the end of this year or early next year.

　　At the same time, the Ministry of Environmental Protection is also fully summarizing the first four batches of environmental protection inspectors. "To study and promote the formulation of relevant laws and regulations concerning central environmental protection inspectors. Put the effective mechanism of this work into the track of rule of law and standardization, and let it develop and persist for a long time. " Li Ganjie said.

　　The central environmental protection inspector closely tracks economic data during the process.

　　How do green mountains and green hills become Jinshan Yinshan? Will environmental protection affect GDP development? Is there a contradiction between economic development and environmental protection?

　　Zhang Yong, deputy director of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that pollution control will require some highly polluting enterprises to implement certain control measures, which will affect certain benefits for the enterprises themselves. However, for the overall situation, it is necessary to better accelerate the construction of ecological civilization.

　　"In the long run, from a macro perspective, from the overall situation, environmental protection has no impact on economic development. Strengthening environmental protection, promoting green development and strengthening the construction of ecological civilization are positively related to economic development. " Li Ganjie said.

　　On October 19th, the report card of national economic operation released by the National Bureau of Statistics showed that China’s GDP growth rate was 6.9% in the first three quarters of 2017, which was the same as that in the first half of the year and 0.2 percentage points faster than that in the same period of 2016.

　　"Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, especially in the past two years, environmental protection has not affected economic development, whether it is the central environmental protection inspector we have carried out or the special environmental law enforcement actions currently being carried out in some key areas." Li Ganjie said, "In the process of the central environmental protection inspector, we also closely tracked the economic data of these areas and found that all economic indicators have not been affected, and in a sense, they are better than in the past."

　　Li Ganjie said that in the process of promoting and strengthening environmental protection, it is necessary to fight both tough battles and protracted wars. The accumulation of problems is not a day or two, and it is by no means overnight to solve them. Therefore, in the process of concrete implementation, on the one hand, some enterprises that violate laws and regulations and pollute the environment will be treated with zero tolerance according to the law and regulations; But on the other hand, we should also follow the principle of classified guidance, one factory, one policy, and analyze specific problems to avoid "one size fits all"

　　Leping, Jiangxi: Can we solve the pollution control cycle of the chemical city?

　　"Since the central environmental protection inspector last year, the strange smell here has indeed decreased, and the water in Le’ an River has also become clear." A villager near Tashan Industrial Park, leping city, Jingdezhen City, Jiangxi Province, told the reporter of China Economic Weekly, "But I am afraid that the pollution here may still be the same."

　　Tashan Industrial Park is the industrial pillar of leping city, which has concentrated the main local chemical enterprises. Since it was put into operation, its increasing pollution problem has made the contradiction between the sewage enterprises and the surrounding villagers increasingly fierce, triggering round after round of protests. Local governments are often forced to carry out whirlwind pollution control actions and close polluting enterprises, but pollution returns again and again after the storm has passed.

　　Leping city is caught in "pollution — Protest — Pollution control — In the cycle of "rebound", it has become the "hardest hit" of environmental pollution in Jiangxi.

　　From July 14 to August 14, 2016, the Fourth Environmental Protection Inspector Group of the Central Committee conducted environmental protection inspections in Jiangxi Province. In the feedback to the Jiangxi Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government on November 17th of that year, the inspector group pointed out that "the Leping Industrial Park in Jingdezhen is seriously polluted", and mentioned that the enterprises in the park have long used rainwater ditches to secretly discharge wastewater, the government introduced a "soil policy" that hindered environmental law enforcement, and used financial funds to pay sewage charges for enterprises.

　　Under the high-voltage line of the central environmental protection inspector, can leping city’s pollution control get out of the previous vicious cycle?

　　When the south wind blows, half the people in leping city will be "smelly"

　　On October 22nd, 2001, Tashan Industrial Park officially broke ground. As the second industrial park in leping city, it has a total planned area of 10 square kilometers and a built-up area of 6.3 square kilometers, which is about 9 kilometers away from Leping City.

　　The reporter saw such an introduction on the bulletin board of the park, "The park has 60 fine chemical and biomedical enterprises, of which 50 have been recycled with chlor-alkali basic chemicals and derivatives, and the chemical products have reached more than 200 kinds in ten categories. Tianxin Pharmaceutical’s output of vitamins B6 and B1 accounts for 70% and 40% of the global share. Shilong Industrial is the largest producer of AC foaming agent and thionyl chloride in China, and the glyphosate products of Jinlong Chemical are in a dominant position in China.

　　An official in leping city told reporters that the manufacturers and affiliated enterprises of these products are big polluters. For example, when producing vitamins B6 and B1, the strong smell of rotten eggs was a nightmare for the surrounding residents.

　　A villager in Shenjialing Village of Tashan Industrial Park said, "Many of our windows are sealed and we never dare to open them. These companies often steal at night, and the smell is too heavy, so that people can’t sleep. " A citizen of Leping City said, "Sometimes when the south wind blows, the smell of rotten eggs wafts from Tashan, and half the people in the city will be awakened."

　　"Long-term use of rainwater ditches by enterprises in the park to steal wastewater" is a problem criticized by the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group. On September 13th, 2017, at the sewage outlet of Dashan Temple in Tashan Street Office, the reporter of China Economic Weekly saw that only a small amount of wastewater was discharged to Le ‘an River, and the water body was crystal clear. A villager who is hoeing the ground said, "This kind of water is treated by sewage. There is no sewage these days because someone has come to check it. "

　　After the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group came,

　　In November, 2016, after the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group criticized many times in its feedback, leping city has become the key rectification target of Jiangxi environmental protection inspectors, and rounds of unannounced visits followed.

　　The government of leping city has also taken many measures. A Report on the Environmental Renovation of Tashan Industrial Park, which was obtained by China Economic Weekly, said, "With the development of the chemical industry park, the contradiction between the environmental problems of the park and the demands of the people has become increasingly prominent. In order to improve the environmental quality of the park, in recent years, the Leping Municipal Party Committee and the municipal government have vigorously promoted the environmental renovation of the park and actively explored the treatment methods. The treatment of wastewater and waste gas in the park has achieved remarkable results and the environment of the park has been significantly improved."

　　In the remediation work, the problem of wastewater smuggling pointed out by the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group is the focus of remediation.

　　Peng Jianfei, head of the leping city Environmental Protection Working Group, introduced that the renovation project of the rainwater pipe network in the park was started at the end of 2016, and the closed and deep-buried trench pipes that were not conducive to the supervision of the environmental protection department were gradually transformed into surface-oriented open rainwater pipe network, "from underground to surface". At present, most of them have been completed and put into use except for a few sections, and the old rainwater pipe network is being completely blocked.

　　"From May 1 this year, we commissioned a third party to install a rainwater monitoring system." Peng Jianfei said that all enterprises in the park should install online monitoring equipment for rainwater outlets to ensure that the water quality (pH value, COD, total phosphorus, ammonia nitrogen, etc.) of enterprise rainwater outlets is monitored 24 hours a day. At the same time, strengthen the supervision of the sewage power pipe network in the park to ensure that all sewage reaches the standard of receiving pipe and enters the power pipe network.

　　In addition to the illegal discharge of wastewater, malodorous gas is another problem that local residents reflect the most and strongly. Peng Jianfei said that there is no specific national standard to define malodorous gas emissions at present. "Sometimes smelling an odor is not a serious pollution."

　　The person in charge of environmental protection work of Tianxin Pharmaceutical, an enterprise in the park, said that the raw materials for producing vitamins do have a certain smell, and the poor sealing of vehicles during transportation will also leak the smell. "These are difficult to avoid completely, but this does not mean air pollution. We have made a lot of environmental protection investment to improve this situation."

　　On September 13, 2017, in Tianxin Pharmaceutical Park, the reporter could smell a slight smell, but it was not strong. Many villagers in Tashan Park said that in the past six months, because most enterprises closed down and stopped production, the smell was really weak.

　　According to the Report on Environmental Renovation of Tashan Industrial Park, according to preliminary statistics, after the enterprises in the park invested about 144.25 million yuan in environmental renovation in 2015, they successively invested 105.38 million yuan in environmental renovation in 2016. In 2017, on the previous basis, the upgrading and transformation of enterprises will be further promoted, and the level of "three wastes" treatment of enterprises will reach a new level.

　　The close distance between residential buildings and the factory is regarded as one of the direct factors of frequent environmental conflicts. While renovating the environment, leping city has also launched a large-scale demolition operation. The reporter of China Economic Weekly saw around Tashan Park that a number of houses and enterprise dormitories had been pushed into rubble. Peng Jianfei said that more than 2,000 houses are planned to be demolished.

　　Choose environment or GDP? To have both, the government faces a big exam.

　　In this storm of environmental protection supervision, Tianxin Pharmaceutical and Jinlong Chemical, as local star enterprises, have not been greatly affected, and they are all in the state of construction, while the production of most small and medium-sized enterprises in the park has been suspended.

　　Peng Jianfei introduced that at present, most enterprises are in the stage of suspension of production and rectification. If enterprises think that environmental protection measures are up to standard after self-inspection, they will apply to the government for restarting work, and they can resume production only after being evaluated by a third-party evaluation agency. "From May to now, no company has passed the review."

　　Leping city said in the Report on Environmental Renovation of Tashan Industrial Park, "Strictly do a good job in the resumption of production and acceptance of enterprises that have stopped production in the park, and enterprises whose wastewater treatment facilities cannot meet the standards will resolutely not resume production."

　　This practice has been "spit" by many park enterprises. A person in charge of the company said, "Our production is also legal and compliant. Now we stop production and rectify. I don’t know when it will resume production. The loss is too great."

　　At the time of rectification, it is indeed the fastest way to control pollution by stopping production. On November 20, 2016, CCTV reported that an industrial park in Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province, shut down all enterprises to cope with environmental protection inspectors. "Overnight, the Jishan Chemical Industry Park was clear in Wan Li." Unfortunately, the inspector group just left, and the pollution has revived.

　　This response highlights the local government’s dilemma between environment and GDP. Chemical industry is a highly polluting industry, but it is also the economic pillar of Leping. It is not a good policy to suspend production for a long time and rectify it on a large scale.

　　In 2015, residents protested against pollution in Leping. In August of that year, official website, the government of leping city, said, "For the sake of fresh air and ineffective environmental protection, we will never retreat." Later, he published a letter to the public, saying: "For enterprises that stop production and rectify, safety assessment, environmental assessment or ‘ Three wastes ’ If the emissions are not up to standard, production will not be resumed. "

　　However, just in 2015, as pointed out by the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group, Leping, which was highly dependent on the chemical industry, also introduced a "land policy" to obstruct environmental law enforcement. From 2012 to 2014, the leping city Municipal Government even violated the Regulations on the Collection and Use of Sewage Charges, and paid 11.47 million yuan of sewage charges for 36 polluting enterprises out of its own pocket.

　　Such contradictory practices have done great harm to the credibility of the local government. After the Central Environmental Protection Inspector, although the local environment did improve obviously, many people interviewed by China Economic Weekly still had doubts about the strength and effect of the government’s subsequent rectification.

　　At the same time, the reporter of China Economic Weekly learned from many sources during the local investigation that Tashan Industrial Park still had intermittent stealing behavior for more than a year after the central environmental protection inspector. "Not long ago, the water discharged here in the middle of the night was still very large, scarlet and smelly." A resident near the sewage outlet of Dashan Temple said.

　　As of September 13th, only Tianxin Pharmaceutical, Shilong Industrial, Jinlong Chemical, Hongbai Chemical and other large enterprises of 60 enterprises in Tashan Park were producing as usual, and the future of the other 50 enterprises is still unknown.

　　In the Report on Environmental Renovation of Tashan Industrial Park, leping city said that enterprises are encouraged to merge and reorganize, and those who are not sure will quit the park themselves. Peng Jianfei emphasized that "chemical parks only do subtraction, not addition. Small and micro enterprises should shut down when they shut down, and they cannot damage the environment for a little GDP."

　　On July 10th this year, Mei, the mayor of Jingdezhen, was also interviewed by the Ministry of Environmental Protection. According to media reports, Mei also said, "As the mayor, I feel very heavy." On July 27th, Mei Yi, when supervising the progress of environmental protection rectification in Leping, said that environmental protection is not only a big test faced by the government, but also related to the life and death of enterprises, and it is also a good opportunity for enterprises to be reborn from the ashes, so that the enterprises that should be shut down can be closed in time and the merged enterprises can be merged in time.

　　Mei also said that leping city should go all out to do a good job in environmental protection rectification, and ensure that the data of environmental quality indicators can only get better and not worse, so as to win the recognition of environmental protection departments and the trust of the masses.

　　Shaodong, Hunan Province: Industrial Transformation and Upgrading under Environmental Protection Inspector

　　There are two brick factories in Aiyao Village, which started production in 2012. The production waste residue was dumped in the river, and the chimney exhaust gas was polluted.

　　There is an unknown factory painting operation about 50 meters behind Xingwang Restaurant next to Ping ‘an Driving School in Sanyi Village, Heitianpu Township.

　　The galvanizing plant of Hunan Jianxiong Line Equipment Co., Ltd. is located in Longshi Village, Huangpiqiao Township, Shaodong County. The smoke and dust in the plant have not been directly discharged without any treatment, and there are no environmental protection measures in the plant.

　　The sewage from Lianqiao Paper Mill in Shaodong County has been discharged directly into Tongjiang River for decades.

　　… …

　　The above content comes from the Shaodong task dispatch list of Shaoyang City, Hunan Province, which cooperates with the Central Environmental Protection Supervision Coordination Liaison Group. From April 24 to May 24, 2017, the Sixth Environmental Protection Inspector Group of the Central Committee conducted environmental protection inspections in Hunan Province. On July 31st, the inspector group gave feedback to the Hunan Provincial Party Committee and the provincial government about the environmental protection inspectors. The inspector group pointed out that the environmental protection work in Hunan Province has achieved positive results, but the contradiction between development and protection is still outstanding, and some areas and regions have frequent environmental problems, and the situation is still grim.

　　In the feedback, Shaodong County of Shaoyang City was not on the list. Most of the 49 cases assigned by the Central Inspector Group were practical problems that seemed trivial as cited above, but actually polluted the environment and affected people’s lives and health.

　　At the same time, almost every assignment of environmental protection inspectors involves a private small and medium-sized enterprise. For Shaodong County, a well-known small commodity economy county in Hunan, how to force industrial transformation and upgrading through environmental protection inspectors requires both wisdom and determination.

　　"Shut down" has become a high-frequency word.

　　"Shut down" is a high-frequency word since the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group came to Hunan in April this year. The reporter of China Economic Weekly obtained a report on environmental protection in Shaodong County made by the county party committee and government in August this year, which showed that all departments cooperated with each other to control the environment, and the enterprises that the environmental protection department made administrative decisions such as banning, closing, stopping production and limiting production, the industrial economic department and the electric power department took power-off and power-off measures according to law.

　　In September, official website, the government of Shaodong County, said that all the 130 livestock and poultry farms in the no-breeding area had been retired, 165 polluting enterprises such as small paper mills, coking plants and electroplating plants had been shut down, and 37 quarries had been shut down.

　　In addition, the indigenous oil refinery, trench tile kiln and green tile kiln were closed, the factory buildings were pushed down and the chimneys were blown up. 113 illegal brick factories in the county, including 75 clay brick factories, were completely shut down as planned.

　　On September 11th, the reporter of China Economic Weekly happened to meet the representative of the paper mill who came to handle the withdrawal compensation when interviewing with Shaodong County Environmental Protection Bureau. Huang Xiangtian, Party Secretary and Director of Shaodong County Environmental Protection Bureau, said that the plan of Shaodong County is to close all papermaking enterprises in China.

　　Paper-making enterprises are big polluters of water environment. There used to be more than 60 papermaking enterprises in Shaodong County, which was once very prosperous. However, from 2008 to 2016, the overall performance of the paper industry was sluggish, and small paper mills were unsustainable and closed down one after another. By 2013, there were 15 paper mills in the county, and only 8 in the first half of 2017.

　　Huang Xiangtian admits that these enterprises have complete procedures and meet the discharge standards. Even so, Shaodong County is still determined to completely quit the paper industry, the main reason is the overall environmental carrying capacity of the local area. According to the data, Shaodong is located in the arid corridor of Hengshao, Hunan Province, which belongs to the rocky desertification area and is seriously short of water. Its "mother river" Tongjiang has a narrow water surface, small water volume and poor self-recovery function. Once it is polluted, it is difficult to be repaired. Huang Xiangtian explained, "meeting the discharge standard only means that the discharged pollutants are within the scope permitted by the national standards, but the pollution still exists."

　　Chen Bowen, deputy head of Shaodong County, who is in charge of environmental protection, said that Shaodong County has arranged more than 50 million funds this time to encourage eight enterprises to completely quit pollution, but it is not mandatory. "It is determined to invest so much money, but it is not across the board."

　　A business owner told the reporter of China Economic Weekly that he was willing to quit. First, although the industry situation has improved this year, it is hard to say what will happen in the future; Second, the compensation given by the government is reasonable; Third, "the pressure of environmental protection is increasing, and the government does not encourage production."

　　Huang Xiangtian said that if enterprises choose to continue production, they must sign a letter of commitment, and they can’t sneak into the row. Once pollution problems are found, they will be forced to close without any compensation.

　　By the end of August, seven of the eight paper-making enterprises had signed an agreement to withdraw, six enterprises had dismantled their equipment, and one remained for its own reasons. According to the compensation exit policy, each enterprise received 6 million yuan in compensation.

　　On the one hand, the existing enterprises are strictly investigated, on the other hand, the environmental protection requirements for new projects in the future are stricter. Chen Bowen said that in the future, the relevant departments will not approve industrial projects without environmental impact assessment, issue planning permits or submit land for approval.

　　Secretary of Shaoyang Municipal Party Committee: Some enterprises should be closed, so don’t care about a little tax.

　　The feedback from the Sixth Environmental Protection Inspector Group of the Central Committee pointed out that the implementation of environmental protection in Hunan is not strong enough, such as not daring to manage the environmental problems of large enterprises. Most non-ferrous metal mining and smelting enterprises in Hunan Province are subordinate enterprises of China Minmetals Group. Since 2013, these enterprises have accumulated dozens of environmental violations that have not been investigated and dealt with according to law, which makes enterprises "bully customers", pay no attention to their own environmental problems, do not rectify, and violate laws and regulations for a long time.

　　Shaodong County is located in the middle of Hunan Province. Although there are no major environmental pollution projects such as large-scale chemicals, steel and nonferrous metals, similar phenomena still exist. The Shaodong County Party Committee and the county government said in the above-mentioned report materials that "many illegal enterprises have fought and survived, and they have revived in pursuit of economic interests."

　　On September 12th this year, when the reporter of China Economic Weekly interviewed the Liuguangling Reservoir in Shaodong County, a local resident said, "All the children in the school directly drink the water in the reservoir, but the water is black and smelly."

　　The school referred to by this resident is Liuguangling Town Middle School, which takes water directly from Liuguangling Reservoir. According to public information, Liuguangling Reservoir is a medium-sized water conservancy project which mainly focuses on irrigation, combines flood control and power generation, and provides domestic water sources for tens of thousands of residents in Liuguangling Town, Shashi Town and Tuanshan Town. At the same time, it is also the main water source for farmland irrigation in some towns and villages in Shuangfeng County.

　　However, the reservoir has been continuously polluted for many years.

　　According to local media reports, since 2005, Liuguangling Reservoir Management Office under Shaodong County Water Affairs Bureau contracted the reservoir to Li Zhijie, an individual owner, to raise fish. Because Li Zhijie put a lot of organic feed into the water, the water quality of the reservoir was gradually polluted and destroyed. On September 17, 2011, more than 400 villagers poured into the Liuguangling Reservoir Management Office, knocking over the window glass, desks, filing cabinets, telephones and other office supplies in the office building and smashing them to the ground.

　　After the crisis broke out, Shaodong County handled it urgently, saying that the contract of Liuguangling Reservoir was terminated unconditionally, and the contractor Li Zhijie completely withdrew. The Liuguangling Reservoir Management Office shall not contract or lease the reservoir to others for breeding in the future.

　　However, after investigation, the reporter of China Economic Weekly learned that less than half a year after the crisis, on April 26th, 2012, the five-year lease contract for fish farming in water body signed by contractor Li Zhijie and Liuguangling Reservoir Management Office expired on April 26th this year, but the contract was still being fertilized for fish farming.

　　On September 3rd this year, Chen Bowen, deputy head of Shaodong County, presided over the on-site office meeting of water pollution of Liuguangling Reservoir in Liuguangling Town, and made it clear that the behavior of fertilizing fish in Li Zhijie is the main cause of water pollution. It is required that according to the Notice on Prohibiting Fertilizing Fish in Small and Medium-sized Reservoirs issued by Shaodong County in 2014, the county water affairs bureau should inform the contractor not to renew the contract, and the county water affairs bureau and reservoir management office should not contract the reservoir to individuals to raise fish. The illegal behavior of fertilizing fish in Liuguangling Reservoir should be severely cracked down and dealt with according to law.

　　In fact, from the perspective of economic accounts, it is not cost-effective for local governments to retain polluting enterprises. Eight paper-making enterprises in Shaodong contributed about 3 million yuan in tax revenue throughout the year, and the compensation for this closure cost 50 million yuan. Another example is that after the closure of the indigenous lead smelting enterprise in Shiquan Village, Shuidongjiang Town, the county left more than 80,000 tons of lead-containing waste residue, and the government will invest 6 million yuan in special funds to build a waste residue storage. Others, such as problems left over from manganese mining and pollution from small electroplating enterprises, need to invest a lot of money, but these projects have not brought much contribution to local tax revenue.

　　The reporter of China Economic Weekly learned that on September 8th, Gong Wenmi, secretary of Shaoyang Municipal Party Committee and director of the Standing Committee of the Municipal People’s Congress, made it clear that environmental issues are the key concerns of the provinces and cities in Shaodong. "Everyone must make up their minds, and the enterprises in this customs must be shut down, so don’t care about a little tax. The environment is not good and there is pollution. Can more than 1.3 million Shaodong people live happily? "

　　Huang Xiangtian introduced that at present, 48 pieces of 49 pieces assigned by the central government have been rectified, and one piece is being rectified according to the rectification plan. Among them, there are three main situations in the 48 delivered parts that have been rectified in place. First, they have been completely shut down and stopped production; Second, the complaint reporting is untrue; The third is to actively rectify the situation after the production is stopped.

　　Chen Bowen said, "If there is still black smoke after this round of rectification, it can’t be said."

　　Environmental protection forces industrial upgrading.

　　On September 25, People’s Daily commented: "Environmental protection inspectors are not only a defense war for the ecological environment, but also a protracted war of transformation and upgrading, which will surely promote the supply-side structural reform."

　　Shao Dong also hopes to embark on an industrial upgrading road under the pressure of environmental protection inspectors. Chen Bowen said, "It is impossible and unnecessary to shut down all traditional enterprises, but to promote enterprises to invest and upgrade in environmental protection." For example, for the small-scale and polluting packaging, printing and plastic products industries, the Shaodong county government organized 24 enterprises to jointly develop and build a new printing industrial park, uniformly plan and build standardized workshops, and introduce advanced technology and equipment to achieve environmental protection and discharge standards.

　　More importantly, industrial upgrading and transformation. Gong Wenmi, secretary of Shaoyang Municipal Party Committee, thinks that the short board that Shao Dong needs to fill now is to introduce large industrial projects. Shao Dong’s advantage is that there are many small and medium-sized enterprises with strong supporting capacity, which is a very good condition.

　　Zhou Yufan, the county magistrate of Shaodong County, said that there are many private enterprises and indeed many small and medium-sized enterprises in Shaodong, but there is a lack of "indomitable spirit" pillar enterprises with an output value of over 2 billion yuan, 5 billion yuan or even 10 billion yuan. It is precisely because of the lack of such pillar enterprises that it is difficult for Shaodong’s industry to form agglomeration effect and economic development to break through the bottleneck.

　　Hardware industry is one of Shaodong’s pillar industries, with more than 2,500 production and operation enterprises, including 48 large-scale enterprises and more than 300 professional production lines, forming a complete industrial chain of smelting, forging, injection molding and logistics, with more than 50,000 employees.

　　Electroplating is an indispensable link in the hardware industry chain, but it is also notoriously heavy pollution. This year, after the closure of 39 small electroplating enterprises in the hardware industry, Shaodong has built one of the best electroplating centers in China and Tiantian Electroplating Center, and invested 12 million yuan to build a sewage treatment station with a daily treatment capacity of 800 tons.

　　At the same time, including the electroplating center, Shaodong plans to invest 2 billion yuan to build a hardware science and technology innovation industrial park, covering an area of 1,000 mu. After completion, it will become the largest hardware industrial park in Central and South China, and cultivate 30 enterprises with an annual output value of over 100 million yuan, with a national market share of over 50%.

　　Zhou Yufan said that efforts should be made to introduce high-end projects in the industrial chain and value chain to promote the transformation and upgrading of traditional industries and the cultivation of new kinetic energy.

　　Jiangsu: "reborn" under "unprecedented pressure"

　　Like Jiangsu’s economic development level, Jiangsu’s environmental protection level has always been at the forefront of the country. However, under the "eye-catching" of the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group, Jiangsu has been found to have many environmental problems.

　　On July 15th, 2016, the Third Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group officially stationed in Jiangsu to carry out a one-month environmental protection inspector.

　　On November 15th of that year, when the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group gave feedback, it pointed out sharply and to the point that although Jiangsu’s environmental protection work has made remarkable progress, the contradiction between the rapid economic and social development and the carrying capacity of resources and environment is still very prominent. Some structural and regional environmental problems have not been fundamentally solved, and the environmental security risks are great. There are still problems in implementing the national environmental protection decision-making, preventing environmental risks and improving the regional ecological environment.

　　In this regard, the "top leaders" of Jiangsu Party and government seized the opportunity of the rectification of the central environmental protection inspector, and used the "supervision" means of environmental protection inspectors for reference to launch the "263 Special Action", that is, the "two reductions, six governance and three promotion" special action plan.

　　"I don’t know if I don’t check, I’m shocked if I check."

　　The director of the Environmental Protection Bureau of a prefecture-level city in Jiangsu told the reporter of China Economic Weekly that Jiangsu, which is at the forefront of the country in all indicators, has always been not afraid of appraisal inspection, but what it did not expect was that "if you don’t check, you will be shocked". After the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group acted according to the process, it found many problems.

　　In the feedback, the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group pointed out three problems. First, the implementation of the national environmental protection decision-making and deployment is still not in place. Second, the environmental risk problem has not been effectively solved. Third, the ecological environment problems in some areas are outstanding.

　　Some of the feedback points directly to the chemical industry as a "pillar industry" in Jiangsu. For example, the inspector found that there are 125 enterprises in the chemical concentration area of Lingang Industrial Zone in Guanyun County, all of which are pesticides, dyes and intermediates projects explicitly prohibited, restricted or strictly controlled by the planning EIA.

　　Some feedback opinions also reflect the characteristics of the central environmental protection inspector’s "supervising politics". For example, the feedback points out that there is still a soft assessment problem in Jiangsu Province in implementing environmental protection with the same responsibility of the party and the government. In October 2015, Jiangsu clearly took environmental quality as the red line of responsibility of local governments at all levels. However, when assessing the responsibility of ecological civilization construction in various places in 2015, there were no clear measures to deal with the problem of water quality rising instead of falling in Qiqiaotun, Nanjing and Zhaotun, Kunshan. There are no clear requirements for Wuxi and Taizhou to encroach on green space or illegal construction in violation of the ecological red line. In the assessment of Taihu Lake governance target responsibility from 2013 to 2015, no rectification requirements were put forward for the responsible units and personnel of 11 rivers whose total phosphorus and total nitrogen failed to meet the national governance target, such as Zhihu Port and Wujin Port.

　　The central environmental protection inspector is not a scarecrow, but an "imperial envoy" who dares to touch the truth, which can be seen through a detail.

　　In July 2016, when the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group was stationed in Jiangsu, the reporter of China Economic Weekly was reporting on the illegal transfer of hazardous wastes by a chemical company in Zhangjiagang, southern Jiangsu. After the publication of the manuscript "Investigation on the illegal transfer of hazardous wastes by Zhangjiagang Xinyi Chemical", Chen Jining, then Minister of Environmental Protection, gave instructions. The Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group, who had just stationed in Jiangsu, rushed to Zhangjiagang for on-the-spot investigation and evidence collection, and the Jiangsu environmental protection system also responded quickly. The company was quickly ordered to stop production, and then made corresponding measures.

　　Drawing lessons from the means of "supervising government", "263 Special Action" promotes the transformation of environmental protection work ideas

　　What is "263 Special Action"? According to the leaders of Jiangsu Provincial Environmental Protection Department, this is the special action of "two reductions, six treatments and three promotions" initiated by the main leaders of Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee and provincial government to seize the rectification opportunity of the central environmental protection inspector. The action plan was issued in the whole province on December 1, 2016, and then a special meeting was held for deployment and mobilization.

　　The above-mentioned director of the Environmental Protection Bureau said that the so-called "two reductions" are to focus on reducing the total coal consumption and reducing the backward chemical production capacity, and to adjust the coal-based energy structure and heavy chemical industry structure that Jiangsu has formed for a long time, so as to reduce the burden on the ecological environment from the source; "Six treatments", that is, focusing on the six problems of ecological civilization construction in Jiangsu, which are most prominent, most closely related to people’s lives and most strongly reflected by the people, focus on the treatment of Taihu Lake environment, domestic garbage, black and odorous water, livestock and poultry breeding pollution, volatile organic pollution and environmental hazards; The "three upgrades" are to improve the level of ecological protection, the level of environmental economic policy regulation, the level of environmental supervision and law enforcement, and provide a solid guarantee for the construction of ecological civilization.

　　Many targets in the "263 Special Action" are aimed at the outstanding problems raised by the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group. For example, the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group clearly pointed out in its feedback that Jiangsu Province needs to achieve a negative growth in total coal consumption by the end of 2017, but in the assessment of air pollution prevention and control in the whole province in 2014 and 2015, the total coal consumption control requirements were not included in the assessment scope of cities.

　　The reporter of China Economic Weekly learned that the "263 Special Action" incorporated all the questions and letters and visits raised by the central environmental protection inspector into the plan, put forward rectification opinions, set a time limit for completion, and ensured that "everything was settled and everything responded", which effectively promoted the rectification of the central environmental protection inspector’s problems.

　　In addition to "prescribe the right medicine", Chen Mengmeng, director of Jiangsu Environmental Protection Department, believes that "263 Special Action" fully draws lessons from the "supervising government" means of the central environmental protection inspector to promote the change of thinking of Jiangsu’s environmental protection work. The "number one" in the province personally promoted it with unprecedented strength, and a leading group headed by the main leaders of the provincial government was established at the provincial level; Leading bodies for special actions have been set up in various cities, and the "top leaders" have personally grasped the deployment, coordination and supervision, and implemented them layer by layer, interlocking with each other, forming a strong momentum of promotion. All departments have their own duties, worked closely together, and made concerted efforts to push forward the special actions in accordance with the requirements of "managing development must manage environmental protection, managing business must manage pollution". At the same time, the system of "263 Special Action" inspection and assessment, accountability and other systems will be established, and the key inspectors who promote the implementation, the lack of promotion, the failure to complete the annual key tasks, and the obvious deterioration of regional environmental quality will be thoroughly investigated and seriously held accountable.

　　"Central environmental protection inspectors really put unprecedented pressure on the petrochemical industry in Jiangsu Province"

　　Although the central environmental protection inspector has changed more from "supervising enterprises" to "supervising government", it is also a thoroughly remoulding process for Jiangsu enterprises.

　　The reporter learned from Jiangsu Chemical Industry Association that as the second largest chemical industry province in China, chemical industry has long been a pillar industry in Jiangsu. In 2016, its main income was 2.09 trillion yuan, with 63 chemical parks and 4,085 enterprises above designated size. "The huge volume of the industry and the outstanding structural defects have made the petrochemical industry in Jiangsu Province feel unprecedented pressure." Qin Zhiqiang, president of Jiangsu Chemical Industry Association, said, "But the supervision pressure is becoming the driving force for governance. It is this kind of supervision pressure that has accelerated the pace of upgrading the petrochemical industry in Jiangsu Province."

　　"In the past, enterprises lacked awareness of environmental protection, and passed ‘ 263 Special Action ’ And government propaganda, the factory spent more than a month on centralized rectification and purchased equipment such as oil fume purification and sewage treatment. Now there is no oil fume in the workshop, which not only protects the environment, but also enhances the company’s image and improves the working environment, and the workers are also very satisfied. " A person in charge of a township enterprise in Jiangsu told the reporter.

　　A machinery manufacturing enterprise in Yangzhou, Jiangsu Province was reported by the masses during the inspection. Many equipment of environmental protection companies were produced in this factory. After investigation, it was found that the enterprise had problems such as unapproved new projects and irregular management of hazardous wastes, and was ordered by the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group to rectify immediately. The person in charge of the enterprise said that before, they felt that they were not chemical enterprises and there was no waste water and waste gas discharged, so they thought that environmental protection had little to do with him. After environmental protection inspectors, they realized that the waste paint barrels and waste engine oil used by enterprises are not only pollution sources, but also hazardous wastes. Enterprises set up environmental protection groups to link environmental protection work with every production link.

　　The person in charge of a petrochemical enterprise in Nantong did not pay attention to environmental protection work at first, and no one asked about the online monitoring exceeding the standard. He only signed the operation record book. After this inspection, the person in charge of this enterprise realized that they should take care of production, safety and environmental protection. They have worked out detailed management rules. In addition to the existing online monitoring system, they also conduct manual sampling monitoring twice a day. Once there is a problem, the whole factory will stop production immediately and will not resume production until the problem is solved.

　　The reporter of China Economic Weekly found that the central environmental protection inspector not only improved environmental awareness, but also improved production processes and techniques, which promoted enterprises to accelerate the pace of transformation, upgrading and upgrading. A biomass power plant in Nantong was punished for environmental pollution, but it was still "incomprehensible". After the central environmental protection inspector, the enterprise took the initiative to invest more than 2.6 million yuan in renovation, which greatly reduced dust and noise pollution. At the same time, it also established an environmental inspection and assessment system. The leaders of the municipal and county environmental protection departments all went to the enterprise to urge rectification, and also organized experts to demonstrate the rectification plan, help improve the production process, and finally solve the pollution problem smoothly. The person in charge of the enterprise finally figured it out, "environmental protection has reached the standard, and the enterprise has not only realized upgrading, but also achieved sustainable development."

　　In the eyes of many business leaders in Jiangsu, the central environmental protection inspector not only shocked environmental violations, but also released a positive signal to the entire environmental protection industry. A business owner said that in the hazardous waste disposal industry, some unscrupulous enterprises used various illegal means to reduce costs, which in the long run caused "bad money to drive out good money" and the whole market was seriously hurt. After the central environmental protection inspector and the standardized management of the hazardous waste industry, everyone will compete fairly, which is extremely important for the healthy development of the industry in the long run.

　　Guizhou: Guiyang’s achievements in water pollution control have been affirmed

　　In April 2017, the Central Seventh Environmental Protection Inspector Group stationed in Guizhou Province to carry out a one-month environmental protection inspection.

　　On August 1, the inspector group gave feedback to Guizhou, and more than a month later, Guizhou welcomed the "Water Ten Articles" supervision team of the Ministry of Environmental Protection in mid-September.

　　Guizhou has successively welcomed inspectors and supervision teams, and Guiyang’s achievements in water pollution prevention and control have been affirmed.

　　At the end of April 2017, the Central Seventh Environmental Protection Inspector Group stationed in Guizhou to carry out a one-month environmental protection inspection. Guizhou province attaches great importance to the central environmental protection inspector, strictly investigates environmental cases complained by strict people and makes them public. By the end of June 2017, 3,453 environmental reporting problems assigned by the inspector group had been basically settled, 1,496 cases were ordered to be rectified, 773 cases were filed for punishment, and a fine of 59.958 million yuan was imposed; 33 cases were investigated and 32 people were detained; 1180 people were interviewed and 338 people were held accountable.

　　At the end of May, four months after the end of the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group, Guizhou welcomed the Environmental Protection Supervision Group again.

　　From 17 to 21 September, the Ministry of Environmental Protection, together with the Ministry of Commerce, the Health Planning Commission and a delegation of 20 experts, was divided into six supervision groups, namely, the water environmental quality group, the double-deck tank renewal or anti-seepage pool setting group and the black and odorous water body group, to conduct special supervision and inspection on the implementation of the 2017 Water Pollution Prevention Action Plan (namely "Water Ten Articles") in Guizhou Province, and held an on-site supervision and summary exchange meeting in Guizhou Province.

　　After three days of spot checks, the supervision team confirmed that there was no black and odorous water body in Guiyang, and fully affirmed the achievements made by Guiyang in water pollution prevention and control actions.

　　According to reports, the supervision team randomly selected 22 on-site points. Among them, the water environmental quality team inspected six sites, including Qingshan Sewage Treatment Plant, Shixihe River, Guancheng River, Xinzhuang Phase I Sewage Treatment Plant, Xinzhuang State-controlled Section and Nanming River Main Stream, and fully affirmed the achievements made in the comprehensive environmental management of Nanming River in Guiyang.

　　According to the remote sensing data of the satellite center of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, the supervision team found that there were 13 sections of rivers in Guiyang that were suspected to have black and odorous water bodies, and randomly selected the sections of Kechuang North Road, the northern section of Chemical Industry Road in the west, and the 7 sections of Nanmen River, Maixihe River and Xiaowan River in Guanshanhu District for on-site verification, confirming that there were no black and odorous water bodies in Guiyang.

　　In 1970s, Nanming River in Guiyang was still a river for drinking water directly. Since 2004, with the rapid development of economy and society and the rapid growth of urban population, a large number of domestic sewage and industrial wastewater have been directly discharged into the river, and the construction of urban sewage treatment facilities and collection pipe network has been seriously lagging behind, resulting in serious damage to the river ecosystem, complete loss of self-purification ability, and the black odor phenomenon is very prominent, making it a "river without life".

　　Although the Nanming River in Guiyang has undergone many renovations, the treatment method of "treating the head with a headache and treating the feet with a pain" has had little effect after all, and the masses have complained a lot, and the environmental problems have gradually evolved into economic and social problems. In November 2012, Guiyang adopted PPP model and introduced China Water Environment Group as a social capital partner, focusing on river interception, dredging, sewage treatment, odor control, ecological control and other projects. In just two years, it has achieved remarkable results.

　　Gao Lin, general manager of Guizhou Regional Company of China Water Environment Group, said that Nanming River is a weather vane for the construction of ecological civilization in Guizhou Province, and it is also a project widely concerned by ordinary people. After being well managed, ordinary people living on both sides of the river have never dared to open windows before, and now waterfowl have returned to the river. It can be said that Nanming River in Guiyang has achieved good ecological benefits through PPP mode.

　　The PPP project of comprehensive improvement of Nanming River water environment in Guiyang City has become an example of the treatment of black and odorous rivers in domestic cities. In 2014, it was listed as one of the first eight new PPP demonstration projects in China by the Ministry of Finance. One of the key sub-items of the project, Guiyang Qingshan sunken reclaimed water system, is the first successful case in China in which the effluent standard reaches Class IV of surface water and ecological water replenishment is realized. At present, the project has been designated as the permanent meeting place of Guiyang International Forum on Ecological Civilization.

　　Gao Lin said that water environment management is a systematic, comprehensive and holistic project. We must resolutely overcome the traditional governance model of "treating the headache and treating the foot", "compartmentalizing and controlling the water", and realize "professional people do professional things" through scientific research and technological innovation.

　　Nanming River in Guiyang City adopts PPP mode, and innovatively adopts the "double-river-length" system of the government and the people, and mobilizes the people to conduct river inspections. When problems are found, the government river-length will deal with them in time, forming an effective joint force and improving the management level of Nanming River.

　　It is reported that since the river patrol in 2015, more than 40 cases of construction wastewater have been discovered, with 24 leaks along the coast, 2,300 river patrol trips, more than 4,000 manual trips and more than 200 tons of garbage removal.

　　To protect the ecological environment of the Yangtze River, Guizhou’s environmental quality is in the leading position in the country.

　　"To promote the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, we must consider the long-term interests of the Chinese nation, take the road of ecological priority and green development, and make the green mountains and green mountains produce great ecological, economic and social benefits, so that the mother river will always be full of vitality." On January 5, 2016, General Secretary of the Supreme Leader held a symposium to promote the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt and delivered an important speech. He pointed out that the restoration of the ecological environment of the Yangtze River should be placed in an overwhelming position, with great protection and no major development.

　　Guizhou is located in the upper reaches of the "two rivers", of which 66% of the land area belongs to the Yangtze River basin, which is an important ecological barrier in the upper reaches of the "two rivers". Guizhou’s geographical environment can explain why water pollution prevention is particularly important to it.

　　Since 2016, 25 counties (cities) in Guizhou, which have been incorporated into national key ecological function area, have implemented the responsibilities of ecological development and environmental protection, and established a negative list system for industrial access. This year, Guizhou began to implement the five-level river length system of province, city, county, township and village, and set up more than 20,000 river lengths for more than 3,000 rivers. Guizhou strives to build an ecological barrier in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River.

　　Through hard work, the excellent water quality ratio of 151 provincial control sections of eight major water systems in the province is 96%. At the same time, Guizhou Province organized the preparation of the implementation plan of the National Ecological Civilization Experimental Zone, promulgated and implemented the Regulations on Promoting the Construction of Ecological Civilization in Guizhou Province, and put the construction of ecological civilization in a prominent position in the form of laws and regulations. Take the lead in setting up environmental protection courts and environmental protection courts in China. Explore the establishment of 12 ecological civilization reform systems in Chishui River to provide reference for the ecological environment protection of the basin.
