China News Service, Beijing, September 14 (Reporter Ruan Yulin) The forecast of the China Environmental Monitoring Station shows that in the next three days, due to the influence of a long-term weak atmospheric system, atmospheric diffusion conditions will continue to be unfavorable, and cities such as Beijing and Shijiazhuang are expected to experience intermittent moderate to severe pollution.

The Ministry of Environmental Protection informed the media that from the 14th to the 16th, the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region was generally in a weak air pressure field. The cold air in the northwest has weakened significantly, and weak southerly winds will continue. The humidity will increase, and the conditions for the spread of air pollution are unfavorable. By then, the central and southern parts of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region will be dominated by light to moderate pollution. Among them, some cities may reach severe pollution levels during certain periods. The forecast shows that Beijing is affected by southerly winds and high humidity, resulting in unfavorable atmospheric diffusion conditions. It is expected that from the 14th to the 15th, the air quality will be mainly moderately polluted. On the morning of the 16th, diffusion conditions will still be unfavorable. In the afternoon, Beijing will be affected by northerly winds. The diffusion conditions will gradually improve, and the pollution situation will be alleviated. The air quality will be lightly polluted throughout the day. The Ministry of Environmental Protection said that it is expected that from the afternoon of the 16th, due to the influence of cold air, diffusion conditions will improve, and the pollution situation in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region will gradually ease from north to south, with most of the region being dominated by good to light pollution. The Ministry of Environmental Protection stated that starting from September 15, it will carry out inspections on the air pollution control campaign in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei and surrounding areas in the autumn and winter of 2017-2018, and relevant air pollution prevention and control supervision and inspection work is being carried out in an orderly manner.

Recently, a reporter from the Economic Observer Network learned from the Ministry of Environmental Protection that "scattered and polluting" enterprises will be fully cleaned up by the end of September. The Ministry of Environmental Protection requires that companies that have been verified as causing "scattered pollution" should be dealt with in a classified manner based on the principle of "stop first and then cure". For gas-related "loose and polluting" enterprises that have been included in the elimination category, the registration and cancellation system will be strictly implemented to achieve "two interruptions and three cleansing" - cutting off water, cutting off power, removing raw materials, removing products, and removing equipment - to resolutely prevent the relocation and resurgence of banned "loose and polluting" enterprises. In addition, for "scattered and polluting" enterprises that have been integrated and relocated to compliant industrial parks, environmental impact assessments will be conducted in accordance with the principle of developing large-scale and modern industries. Enterprises that are found to have committed environmental violations due to environmental protection verification will be dealt with strictly in accordance with regulations.
The rectification situation is grim. However, the current rectification work for "scattered, messy and polluting" enterprises is still facing a grim situation. The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Environmental Protection told the Economic Observer Network that from September 1 to September 7, the most prominent phenomena were that "loose and polluting" companies falsely reported their completion status, overdue completion of rectification tasks for "scattered and polluting" companies, and "scattered and polluting" companies did not stop production for rectification, accounting for 93.6% of the total number of problems discovered in a week. Among the 8,195 "scattered and polluted" enterprises that had been reported to have completed rectifications, 737 had false reports. Baoding City, Hebei Province (391 companies), Huaxian County, Henan Province (166 companies) and Puyang City (76 companies) found the most problems. “It is also common for companies that have failed to complete rectifications overdue for "scattered pollution". The inspection team found a total of 531 companies - Jincheng City (186 companies), Yangquan City (108 companies) and Changzhi City (96 companies) in Shanxi Province found the most problems. What is even more concerning is that illegal production by "scattered and polluting" companies on the list still exists in some areas. The inspection team found a total of 109 companies - Jiaozuo City in Henan Province (20 companies), Taiyuan City in Shanxi Province (18 companies) and Baoding City in Hebei Province (17 companies). In addition, the heavy pollution weather in autumn and winter this year is relatively early, which undoubtedly makes the ongoing intensive inspection of air pollution face more severe challenges. However, the Ministry of Environmental Protection has already made various preparations and arrangements in advance - debuting the "1+6" combination for the first time, aiming at air pollution control in autumn and winter. And "loose and polluting" enterprises, especially gas-related "scattering and polluting" enterprises, are the focus and difficulty of strengthening supervision work. * * Liu Changgen, deputy director of the Environmental Protection Inspectorate Office, said, “The reason why we should give top priority to the rectification of ‘scattered and polluting’ enterprises is that we must focus on the key points and the key points, and the boundaries must be clear. To pass the inspection, pass * * We will intensify our efforts to solve these problems and promote the comprehensive management of air pollution. ” As of September 7, the first week of the 11th round of intensive inspections on air pollution prevention and control carried out by the Ministry of Environmental Protection for Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and surrounding "2+26" cities has ended. This is also the first week of intensive inspections on the comprehensive air pollution control campaign in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei and surrounding autumn and winter from 2017 to 2018. According to the arrangement, the comprehensive rectification of "scattered, messy and polluting" enterprises and clusters is the focus of this week's inspection. The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Environmental Protection said that during this period, the inspection team conducted random inspections in the five provinces and cities of Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei, Shanxi and Henan and found a total of 1,471 "scattered pollution" and cluster sites with environmental problems - 737 falsely reported the completion of rectification, 531 failed to complete the rectification tasks on time, 109 illegal production or signs of production involving "scattered pollution" related to gas, and 54 did not install pollution control facilities.
The "scattered pollution" enterprises mainly include non-ferrous metal smelting and processing, rubber production, leather tanning, chemical industry, ceramic firing, casting, screen processing, steel rolling, refractory materials, carbon production, lime kilns, brick kilns, cement grinding stations, waste plastic processing, as well as printing, furniture and other small manufacturing and processing enterprises involving the use of coatings, inks, adhesives, organic solvents, etc. They generally have no industrial and commercial, land, environmental protection and other procedures, and most of the production processes have problems such as illegal production, excessive emissions, failure to install pollution control facilities, and abnormal operation of pollution control facilities. Liu Changgen said that the rectification of "scattered and polluting" enterprises was ineffective, the work of replacing coal with electricity and gas was not carried out, the "clearing" of small boilers was not in place, and the off-peak production of key industries was not implemented. These four major problems are the prominent contradictions currently affecting the quality of the atmospheric environment in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei and surrounding areas, and they are also the most discovered problems during the inspection process. According to the relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, "scattered pollution" enterprises are widespread in Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei and surrounding areas. As of the end of June, the number of "scattered pollution" enterprises investigated in the "2+26" cities reached 176,000 - most of them are family workshop-type enterprises or individual industrial and commercial households. They are mainly located in rural and urban-rural areas and at the junction of provinces and cities where regulatory power is relatively weak, and their locations are hidden. Tian Weiyong, director of the Environmental Supervision Bureau of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, said that the strengthened inspections in autumn and winter are more clearly divided into three directions.: The target bottom line cannot be exceeded - 97% of industrial enterprises stably meet emission standards ； The main direction of attack is "two scattered" - "scattered and polluted" will be comprehensively cleaned up before the end of September. "Loose coal" includes coal-fired boilers and the replacement of coal-to-electricity and coal-to-gas clean energy. ； Off-peak production to cope with heavy pollution weather. The overall goal is to minimize the occurrence of polluted weather. Not only in terms of direction, the content of strengthened inspections in autumn and winter has also become more detailed - from the previous 7 aspects, which mainly targeted industrial enterprises to stably meet emission standards and "scattered pollution" control, it has become more clear to 12 aspects, and has been specifically refined to 233 tasks. Each city has its specific tasks and specific lists. As Tian Weiyong said, “During the inspection, I take the list and check it one by one. If it is not completed, I will continue to inspect it one by one to ensure that these tasks can be completed. ” In addition, according to Tian Weiyong, the Ministry of Environmental Protection will also dispatch a group of special working groups to conduct targeted "point-and-shoot" inspections in key areas. For some areas with prominent problems, additional special working groups will be dispatched to help with inspections. In the event of heavy pollution in winter, one or several special working groups will be dispatched according to different pollution channels.
The environmental storm did not dissipate the fog either....
The autumn weather has been crisp recently, and the air feels okay!
This round is not over yet, it’s just that the weather is nice in summer, so everyone kind of forgot about it
If coal is banned in my hometown, who will freeze to death in the winter? Is this considered sacrificing one's own merits to take advantage of the least?
