3. Improve the emergency response mechanism. The provincial environmental protection department should take the lead in formulating and organizing the implementation of the emergency plan for heavy air pollution in the Pearl River Delta region as soon as possible, and announce it to the public in a timely manner. In order to go public at all levels, it is necessary to formulate emergency plans for heavy air pollution in the region, clarify the responsible subjects, organizations, job responsibilities, early warning and response procedures, safeguard measures, etc., and announce them to the public in a timely manner. Local governments should incorporate the emergency treatment of heavy air pollution into the emergency management system of local emergencies and implement the responsibility system of the main person in charge. Establish and improve the regional air pollution prediction and early warning mechanism of monitoring and forecasting-expert consultation-reporting for approval-response implementation. When heavy pollution weather is predicted, local governments should take emergency response measures in time and organize all relevant parties to carry out their work as required.
(eleven) improve the local regulations and technical standards system.
1. Improve laws and regulations. Revise the Measures for the Administration of Pollutant Discharge Permit in Guangdong Province in a timely manner, accelerate the formulation of the Regulations on the Prevention and Control of Air Pollution in Guangdong Province, improve the systems of total control, pollutant discharge permit, emergency warning and accountability, realize the organic connection between administrative law enforcement and criminal justice, and improve the compensation system for environmental pollution damage according to the principle of "whoever pollutes is responsible and pays more for more emissions".
2. Improve the standard system. Strengthen the preparation and revision of local standards in Guangdong Province, speed up the revision of the emission limit standards of atmospheric pollutants in Guangdong Province, formulate the limit standards of harmful substances in low-sulfur loose coal and products, coatings, inks and other products, clarify the emission standards of atmospheric pollutants for biomass briquettes and the emission standards of volatile organic compounds in key industries, establish the emission accounting system of volatile organic compounds in key industries, and strengthen the hard constraints of energy consumption and safety standards.
3. Strengthen technical support. Strengthen the basic research on haze, ozone formation mechanism, source analysis, migration law, etc., and carry out the study on the exposure-response relationship between air pollution and population health. Support the construction of Guangdong National Key Laboratory of Environmental Protection and encourage environmental protection enterprises to build engineering technology research and development centers and engineering research centers (laboratories). Actively develop products and equipment for desulfurization and denitrification, high-efficiency dust removal, volatile organic compounds control, diesel engine (vehicle) emission purification, environmental monitoring, etc., and popularize a number of advanced and practical technologies to solve regional compound air pollution problems.
(12) Improve environmental and economic policies.
1. Improve the price system of resources and environment. Give full play to the leverage of resource prices and guide enterprises to produce green and consume green in society. Study and formulate differentiated and stepped resource price policies, and implement electricity price support policies for existing thermal power units that have adopted new technologies to transform dust removal facilities. Implement the policy of high quality and good price for oil products, and encourage oil refining enterprises to accelerate the pace of upgrading oil products.
2. Increase fiscal and taxation support. At the provincial and local levels, the funds for pollution prevention and control are listed as a whole, and the forms of "replacing compensation with awards", "promoting prevention with awards" and "promoting governance with awards" are adopted to support the prevention and control of air pollution. We will fully implement the preferential fiscal and taxation policies for contracted energy management, and actively explore the integrated franchise mode of investment, construction and operation of pollution control facilities. We will improve the support policies for the collection and emission reduction of sewage charges, and gradually levy sewage charges for volatile organic compounds, dust from construction sites, gas stations and operating catering fumes.
3. Innovative environmental protection financial policies. Establish green credit, green securities and environmental pollution liability insurance systems, incorporate corporate environmental information into the bank credit information system, and strictly restrict environmentally illegal enterprises from obtaining loans or listing financing. Accelerate the pilot work of paid use and trading of emission rights and carbon emission rights such as sulfur dioxide.
(13) Improve the participation mechanism of the whole society.
1. Timely disclosure of environmental information. Since 2014, the provincial environmental protection department will regularly publish the air quality status and ranking of cities at or above the local level every month, and all state-controlled and provincial-controlled air quality monitoring stations in the province will release air quality information to the public in real time. All localities should establish a compulsory disclosure system for environmental information of enterprises in heavily polluting industries, promptly and proactively publish information such as environmental impact assessment approval of new projects, sewage charges, supervision and law enforcement penalties, pollutant discharge of key enterprises, operation of pollution control facilities, and regularly publish environmental credit rating results of key pollution sources.
2. Mobilize the whole people to participate. Actively carry out various forms of publicity, education and training, popularize scientific knowledge of air pollution prevention and control, advocate civilized, economical and green consumption patterns and living habits, and improve the enthusiasm of the public to participate in atmospheric environmental protection. Encourage the public to supervise and report air pollution by opening a hotline for reporting and hiring special supervisors for air pollution prevention and control, and support environmental protection social organizations and environmental protection volunteers to carry out social supervision activities.
Municipal governments at or above the local level shall, in accordance with this action plan, pay close attention to formulating specific implementation plans for the region, decompose and implement tasks, and submit the progress of air pollution prevention and control work in the previous year to the provincial government before March 31 each year.
