Facing the severe situation of water pollution control in Huaihe River Basin, how can we effectively promote the implementation and implementation of water pollution control planning in Huaihe River Basin? Recently, the Jiangsu Provincial Government forwarded the Interim Measures for Assessing the Implementation of Water Pollution Control Planning in the Huaihe River Basin of Jiangsu Province (hereinafter referred to as the "Measures"), which was jointly promulgated by the Department of Environmental Protection of Jiangsu Province and other six departments. The people's governments of Xuzhou, Nantong, Lianyungang, Huai'an, Yancheng, Yangzhou, Taizhou and Suqian in the Huaihe River Basin of Jiangsu Province will implement the water pollution control Conduct assessment.
Which indicators are assessed?
The Measures assess the three major indicators for the implementation of water pollution control planning in the Huaihe River Basin, including water quality indicators, engineering indicators and other indicators. As for the assessment of water quality indicators, the comprehensive compliance rate of water quality sections determined in relevant national and provincial plans, plans and plans will be comprehensively assessed. Data sources are mainly manual monitoring data, supplemented by monitoring data from automatic water quality monitoring stations and Huaihe River Commission of the Ministry of Water Resources or local water resources departments. Among them, the manual monitoring data include the self-monitoring data of all localities and the supervisory monitoring data of Jiangsu Environmental Monitoring Center.
Assessment of Engineering indicators is to assess the completion rate of water pollution prevention and control projects in Huaihe River Basin, including national and provincial plans, plans and schemes for industrial pollution control, construction of urban sewage treatment facilities, and pollution prevention and control in key regions. The acceptance report or approval documents of the relevant administrative departments shall be the basis for the assessment of the completion of the water pollution prevention and control project.
The assessment of other indicators will include the completion of investment in pollution control projects, the discharge of wastewater from sewage treatment units up to the standard, the treatment rate of urban sewage and the rate of innocuous treatment of domestic refuse and the charging situation, the protection of drinking water sources, the installation and operation of online monitoring facilities and the networking situation, etc. The assessment will be based on the materials provided by relevant functional departments.
How to assess?
As to the method to be adopted in the assessment, the Measures also give a detailed description. The assessment will be scored by percentage system, including water quality index 50 points, Engineering Index 30 points and other indicators 20 points. Examination results are divided into good (80 points above), good (70 points above, 80 points below), general (60 points above, 70 points below), poor (60 points below). The assessment is carried out by the combination of on-site verification and key spot checks. In the process of key spot checks, if there is a case of fraud, 0.5 points will be deducted and the deduction will be completed. If the result of the assessment is poor, it will be recognized as failing the annual assessment. The people's governments of provincial municipalities that fail to pass the annual assessment shall, within 30 days, make written reports to the provincial people's governments, propose rectification measures within a time limit, submit them to the provincial people's governments and copy them to the office of the provincial environmental protection committee. For each case of environmental events caused by water quality exceeding the standard, according to the level of events determined by the National Emergency Plan for Emergency Environmental Emergencies, 10, 8, 6 and 4 points are deducted respectively from the responsible party for the particularly serious (Grade I), major (Grade II), larger (Grade III) and general (Grade IV) environmental events. If the water quality of rivers in neighbouring provinces or cities has changed significantly due to illegal sewage discharge, the responsible party shall be deducted 2 to 6 points as appropriate.
The people's governments of the provinces and municipalities under the jurisdiction of the Huaihe River Basin conducted annual self-checks on the implementation of the plan. The self-checks included water quality indicators, engineering indicators, investment completion of pollution control projects, discharge of wastewater from sewage treatment units up to standard, treatment rate of urban sewage and harmless treatment rate of domestic refuse and charges, protection of drinking water sources, installation and operation of online monitoring facilities and networking, etc. 。 The self-investigation report is submitted to the office of the leading group of water pollution prevention and control in Huaihe River Basin before the end of December every year.
The Office of the Leading Group of Water Pollution Prevention and Control in the Huaihe River Basin of Jiangsu Province will organize the relevant departments of the province to assess the implementation of the previous year's planning in the cities under the jurisdiction of the Huaihe River Basin, and report the results of the assessment to the provincial people's government before the end of January each year. After the approval of the provincial people's government, it will inform the people's governments
What will be the impact of the assessment results?
Jiangsu has assessed the implementation of water pollution control planning in eight provincial municipalities of the Huaihe River Basin. What impact will the assessment result have on the provincial municipal governments?
The Measures require that the results of the assessment be submitted to the Organizational Department of the Provincial Party Committee with the consent of the Provincial People's Government, and in accordance with the relevant provisions, they serve as an important basis for the comprehensive assessment and evaluation of the leading groups and cadres of the provincial and municipal people's governments.
The results of the assessment are good, and the provincial finance gives priority to increasing the support for the construction of the project included in the national and provincial water pollution prevention and control plan; for those who fail to pass the assessment, the provincial environmental protection department suspends the approval of the construction project of the new water pollutant discharge in this area.
For those who fail to pass the examination and fail to rectify or make significant social impact due to inadequate work, the supervisory department shall investigate the responsibility of the relevant personnel in accordance with the Interim Provisions for the Punishment of Environmental Protection Violations and Discipline Violations. The regions that conceal or falsely report the situation in the assessment work shall be notified and criticized. Personnel directly responsible should be dealt with seriously.
