Eliminate production capacity lag, illegal sewage discharge! The two places were named by the Central Environmental Protection Inspector Group.

　　CCTV News:On July 20, 2019, the inspector of Wushan County, Chongqing, found that the vertical kiln cement production line that should have been eliminated by Chongqing Mining Development Co., Ltd. of Yongnian Group in 2012 was still in illegal production, and the environmental pollution problem was outstanding. The supporting limestone yard seriously damaged the ecology of nature reserves, and the masses reacted strongly.

　　The inspector group found that Yongnian Cement Plant adopted Φ 4.2×11mJT kiln belongs to a kind of cement machine shaft kiln, and the actual maximum production capacity of cement clinker is 400 tons/day, which belongs to the backward production capacity explicitly eliminated by the Industrial Structure Adjustment Guidance Catalogue (2011 edition). However, this enterprise has always ignored the national industrial policy, and since its completion in March 2012, it has been producing illegally for a long time.The enterprise was still in production when the inspector group conducted on-site inspection.

　　The inspector also found that Yongnian Cement Plant has been illegally discharging pollutants for a long time, seriously polluting the surrounding environment. Since 2016, the enterprise has been repeatedly punished by the local ecological and environmental departments for its abnormal operation of pollution control facilities, excessive discharge of air pollutants, inadequate dust control in the factory area, and serious unorganized discharge. The monitoring of Wushan County Environmental Monitoring Station on August 29th, 2016 found that the emission concentration of particulate matter and sulfur dioxide in this factory exceeded Chongqing Comprehensive Emission Standard for Air Pollutants in Cement Industry by 27.68 times and 4.657 times respectively. On-site inspectors found that the bag dust collector supporting the raw meal mill and clinker mill of the enterprise was not working normally, the "three prevention" measures of the raw material warehouse were not in place, the unorganized emission of dust was very prominent, the equipment and the ground were seriously dust-collected, and the thick smoke discharged from the chimney persisted for a long time, and the whole factory area was shrouded in a "haze".

　　Jianping limestone quarry of Yongnian Cement Plant (including two limestone mining rights) is located in the experimental area of Jiangnan Municipal Nature Reserve in Chongqing. Since it was completed and put into operation in 2012, it has been engaged in limestone mining activities for a long time, occupying a total area of 0.114 square kilometers. After the closure of the limestone quarry, the enterprise failed to actively fulfill the statutory responsibility of ecological restoration, and the ecological damage has not been restored so far. Found at the scene,About 50,000 square meters of environmental wounds formed by mining.It is like a "scar".

　　The inspector group reviewed the complaints about environmental letters and visits in Wushan County in recent years and found that the environmental pollution and ecological damage of Yongnian Cement Plant have always been the hot spots of local people’s complaints. After the central eco-environmental protection inspector group entered Chongqing, the masses repeatedly reported the environmental pollution and ecological damage of Yongnian Cement Plant by telephone.

　　In view of the long-term illegal production of Yongnian Cement Plant, the Party Committee and government of Wushan County have long allowed and even supported Yongnian Cement Plant to produce illegally under the nose. In August, 2015, knowing that Yongnian Cement Factory was an enterprise eliminated by the state, it was excluded from the renewal of cement production license, and requested the relevant parties to agree to renew the cement production license on the grounds that the factory needed to cooperate with the disposal of domestic sludge. In 2017, after Chongqing Eco-environmental Protection Inspector pointed out this problem, the Party Committee and Government of Wushan County still turned a deaf ear, and arbitrarily relaxed the closure time limit to December 31, 2020 on the grounds that the formalities of the enterprise were complete.

　　Since 2012, the economic and information departments of Chongqing and Wushan County have never included Yongnian Cement Factory in the annual elimination plan, knowing that it belongs to the scope of backward production capacity elimination. The former Chongqing Municipal Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision also illegally renewed the cement production license for the enterprise in January 2016, resulting in the continuous illegal production of the enterprise to this day. The land and resources department of Wushan County has twice illegally approved the mining right of the enterprise located in the Jiangnan municipal nature reserve, and urged the enterprise to implement the ecological restoration of the mine.

　　The forestry department of Wushan county failed to fulfill the responsibility of nature reserve construction and management, and turned a blind eye to the long-term illegal mining of Yongnian cement plant in nature reserve, which led to the long-term illegal mining of enterprises and seriously damaged the ecological environment; The environmental supervision of Yongnian Cement Plant by the ecological and environmental department of Wushan County is not in place, and there is a phenomenon of custody by punishment.

　　In response to the above problems, the inspector group will further verify the relevant situation and ask the local authorities to investigate and rectify the situation according to the law. (CCTV reporter Jassamyn Liu)
