Huang Runqiu, Minister of Ecological and Environment, led a team to Tangshan, Hebei Tangshan.Implement issues such as emission reduction requirements, fake production records, and ventilation letter.

Huang Runqiu emphasized that the environmental violations, especially falsifying the law, must be resolutely investigated and punished according to law with a zero tolerance, and the suspected crimes must be transferred to the public security organs to seriously investigate the responsibilities of relevant personnel in accordance with the law.

Hebei is a large Chinese steel production province, and Tangshan City is the city with the largest steel production capacity in Hebei Province. Steel enterprises emissions are an important source of air pollution in Beijing -Tianjin -Hebei.

Relevant sources in Beijing pointed out that during the two sessions from March 4th to 11th, Beijing has been shrouded in haze, causing some people's congress deputies and members of the CPPCC to question the effects of Beijing, Tianjin, and Hebei.Expressing dissatisfaction.Huang Runqiu went to Tangshan, where the steel company gathered at the end of the two sessions on the day of the two sessions to conduct an assault inspection.

According to the news released by the official website of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment yesterday, in the early morning of March 11, Huang Runqiu and his party came to Tangshan City.Municipal Chunxing Special Steel Co., Ltd. and Tangshan Donghua Iron and Steel Enterprise Group Co., Ltd. asked the company's production conditions and carefully check the records of the enterprise production account, production conditions, online monitoring and other records to understand the implementation of emergency emission reduction measures for heavy pollution weather for enterprisesEssence

Inspection found that four companies were produced at high load production during the emergency response period of heavy pollution, and the corresponding emission reduction requirements were not implemented.The clues have been transferred to the local public security department.

Huang Runqiu pointed out that the current situation of air pollution prevention and control is still severe. It is necessary to increase political standing, strengthen the sense of responsibility and mission, and take the opportunity to solve the problems exposed to inspection.Implementation, ensure that supervision and inspection achieves practical results, and do not perfunctory things.We must adhere to the problem orientation, dare to move the truth, effectively increase the enforcement efforts, severely crack down on the violations of the atmospheric environment, and form a continuous high -pressure deterrent.It is necessary to strengthen capacity building, give full play to the role of ecological environmental protection professionals, and use online monitoring and other means to improve the effectiveness of law enforcement.

He also emphasized that steel enterprises are large emissions, and they are also responsible subjects of air pollution control. They cannot just look at benefits and leave pollution to the local people.Environmental protection departments should help local findings, pay attention to the rectification of the problem, and effectively transmit pressure to local party committees, governments and relevant departments.

Difficult to compress the steel production capacity of the steel due to environmental protection

However, the relevant person analyzed that although Huang Runqiu said a lot of ruthless words, steel is the pillar industry and important tax sources of Hebei Province. The local government and enterprises are unlikely to significantly compress the steel production capacity due to environmental protection. Otherwise, it will directly affect the local area.Employment and economic growth.

At the same time, due to funding and operating costs, some steel companies have not strictly invested in environmental protection facilities in accordance with national emission standards.Even if there are environmental protection equipment, some companies are only placing flowers. They are usually not used, and they only turn on when someone checked.Therefore, it is not easy to cure illegal discharge behaviors of Hebei Iron and Steel and other enterprises.
