With the full launch of the third batch of central environmental protection inspectors, the central environmental protection inspectors have covered 23 provinces, and the results of phased inspectors have also been announced recently. The national environmental protection supervision office announced on may 11 that the seven inspection teams that are conducting the third batch of central environmental protection inspectors in 7 provinces and cities have completed the first phase of provincial level supervision tasks and officially entered the sinking supervision phase. 7 provinces and cities have changed, and 1278 people have been held accountable. So far, the central environmental protection inspector has lasted for more than a year, with a wide range, a long time and great strength. It is called the largest action directly organized at the national level in China’s environmental protection history. Looking back on the past, the problems found by the central environmental protection inspector were solid and the accountability was strict, which had a great deterrent effect on local government and enterprises. In response to the recent “re-departure” of this campaign, the reporter from Economic Information Daily found that while the grass-roots cadres expect the intensity of environmental protection inspectors to continue, they also expect the contents and forms of inspectors to deepen further, relevant work is further institutionalized, standardized and specialized. Environmental Inspector Cheng sharp blade On may 11, the national environmental protection supervision office announced that the seven inspection teams that are conducting the third batch of central environmental protection supervision in 7 provinces and cities have completed the first phase of provincial level supervision tasks and officially entered the sinking supervision phase. 7 provinces and cities have changed, and 1278 people have been held accountable. It is reported that the third batch of seven central environmental protection inspection teams successively implemented inspectors to Tianjin, Shanxi, Liaoning, Anhui, Fujian, Hunan, Guizhou and other provinces (cities) from April 24 to April 28. So far, the central environmental protection inspector has covered 23 provinces. As of May 9, 7 inspection teams received 14479 reports from the masses, including 1431 in Tianjin, 1236 in Shanxi, 2537 in Liaoning, 1587 in Anhui, 2847 in Fujian and 3037 in Hunan, guizhou 1804 pieces. After sorting out and merging repeated reports, the inspection team transferred 9194 pieces to the supervised area in total. So far, this action, which is called the largest direct organization at the national level in China’s environmental protection history, has lasted for more than a year. In July 2015, the 14th meeting of the central deep reorganization deliberated and approved the “environmental protection supervision plan (Trial)”, which clearly established the environmental protection supervision mechanism. The supervision work will be carried out in the form of the central environmental protection inspection team to the provincial, district and municipal party committees, governments and their relevant departments, and will sink to some municipal Party committees and government departments. At the same time, for the first time, the plan puts forward “the same responsibility of party and government” and “one post and two responsibilities” for environmental protection, which means that local party committees will accept supervision together with the government, the results of supervision will serve as an important basis for the assessment and evaluation of the appointment and removal of leading cadres. At the end of 2015, the central environmental protection inspector opened a pilot project in hebei-the central environmental protection inspector group talked individually with 26 provincial and ministerial leading cadres and 12 major heads of relevant departments, and told the provincial party committee, 18 relevant departments of the provincial government conducted interviews and inquiries. The inspection team not only accepted letters and reports from the masses, conducted supervision and spot checks, but also carried out sinking inspections in Shijiazhuang, Baoding, Handan, Xingtai and Tangshan. From the end of november to the end of december 2016, the second batch of central environmental protection inspection teams entered 7 provinces and cities including beijing, shanghai, chongqing, hubei, guangdong, gansu and shaanxi. The water quality of some rivers and reservoirs has deteriorated obviously, the environmental quality in some areas has deteriorated sharply, and the transmission of environmental protection pressure has declined layer by layer. After 4 months of supervision and inspection, the inspection results have emerged in the air: “There is still a big gap between hebei province’s emphasis on environmental protection and its efforts and the requirements of the central government and the expectations of the masses” and “the former main leaders of the provincial party committee do not really attach importance to environmental protection, there is no real catch” and so on. This is part of the problems mentioned by the central environmental protection inspection team when feeding back the supervision opinions to Hebei province. Not only Hebei, but also the central environmental protection inspector can’t tolerate any “hiding dirt”. Guangxi was dug out the truth because the functional departments were lazy to fulfill their responsibilities and resort to fraud. The situation that petrochina ningxia petrochemical company illegally dumped gypsum and stole sewage and ignored environmental protection and violated the rules and regulations was also investigated thoroughly. In 2016, the central environmental protection inspector covered 16 provinces (autonomous regions and municipalities), accepted more than 33000 reports from the masses, punished more than 8500 cases, fined more than 0.44 billion yuan, filed more than 800 cases for investigation, 720 people were detained, 6307 were interviewed, and 6454 were held accountable. Pang shengjun, deputy director of the environmental protection bureau of cangzhou city, hebei province, said that the central environmental protection inspector was like a sharp sword, with great strength and exposed many sharp problems, which really made people alert. Many enterprises had pressure and crisis, for the grass-roots environmental protection work, it is a favorable opportunity to comprehensively sort out their own work and check for leaks and fill vacancies. We hope that a new round of environmental protection inspectors will not be changed. Environmental protection work is no longer “steamed rice” With the roaring sound of cranes, a small coal-fired boiler of Hongye company in Qinghe county, Xingtai city, Hebei province was dismantled, and the “clearing operation” of coal-fired boilers in Qinghe county was officially launched. The reporter learned in a recent interview that by the end of April, 220 small coal-fired boilers in the county had been dismantled and cleared, and more than 100 “scattered pollution” enterprises had stopped production and rectified, reducing pollution emissions from the source. Du Jinhai, director of the environmental protection bureau of Shahe city, Hebei province, believes that environmental protection work used to be “steamed rice” in many places. Due to the high level of the central environmental protection inspector and the implementation of the same responsibility of the Party and government, more attention should be paid to the handling of supervision results and the accountability of personnel, so that the ideological understanding of governments at all levels can be transmitted layer by layer and leverage the levers of many existing environmental protection deadlocks can be leveraged. Only then can the self-inspection and autonomy actions like Qinghe County be taken. Including Hebei province, all provinces named by the central environmental protection inspection team are focusing on solving various problems found in the central environmental protection inspection. It is understood that in response to the clues of the transfer of the central environmental protection inspection team, Hebei province specially set up a leading group for investigation and accountability, and held 487 responsible persons seriously accountable. Among them, 431 cadres at the department level and below are involved, 7 are the main responsible persons of the enterprise, 12 are other management personnel of the enterprise, 294 are given disciplinary punishment by the party, 117 are given to talk with others, 10 persons were dismissed or transferred, and 5 persons were transferred to judicial organs. Moreover, in order to strengthen the implementation of ecological and environmental protection responsibilities, guangdong and other provinces have also carried out provincial-level environmental protection inspectors for some cities in the province to promote the implementation of environmental protection responsibilities and various environmental protection decisions. “At present, the county Party committee secretary’s direct focus on environmental protection has become the normal state of grass-roots environmental protection work. However, from the inspection process, some problems were indeed neglected and neglected in the past, which needs further attention and solution.” Du Jinhai said that at present, the work of environmental protection supervision has been basically normalized, and the concepts of governments at all levels and local enterprises have changed greatly, and the problems should be implemented and rectified without compromise, pressure conduction needs to be continued. Institutionalization, standardization and specialization of grass-roots supervision In May, the air pollution situation in various places improved, and the previous “the largest inspector in history” had launched a rapid attack. In response to “the situation that some environmental problems occur repeatedly in different regions, the pressure transmission is not in place, and the implementation of measures is not in place for a long time”, at the beginning of April this year, the Ministry of Environmental Protection transferred 5600 environmental law enforcement personnel from the whole country, determine the “2+26” city of Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei air pollution transmission channel to carry out a one-year enhanced supervision of air pollution prevention and control. By May 7, the inspection team had supervised 8447 Enterprises (units) and found that 5594 enterprises had environmental problems, accounting for about of the total number of inspections. Although Hebei has passed the “baptism” of the central environmental protection inspector, some enterprises are still at the top of production when facing environmental emergency response at the inspector sites in Langfang, Shijiazhuang and other places, and there is a phenomenon of stealing and leaking. Some environmental experts said that after the heavy blow of the central environmental protection inspector, the level of government supervision and law enforcement at all levels has improved, but some enterprises are still “stubborn” and do not abide by laws and regulations, and their ideas cannot be changed. A number of grassroots cadres interviewed said that the work of the central environmental protection inspector has been normalized at present, and they expect that the environmental protection inspector will gradually move towards institutionalized operation in the future, reducing the influence of human factors, and making the problem be implemented and rectified without compromise, it is also necessary to sum up experience and raise supervision procedures and norms to the level of laws and regulations. In addition, we should further strengthen the construction of environmental protection system, cultivate citizens’ awareness of environmental protection, enhance the initiative of enterprises and institutions, social organizations and organizations to participate in environmental protection, and highlight the implementation of the reward and punishment mechanism of environmental protection inspectors. In addition, they expect: first, in form, more departments will participate in the inspection team, and at the national level, they will perform their duties according to the next level of functional supervision, which will make environmental protection inspectors more professional, the effect is more obvious; Second, in terms of content, new problems should be found, and old problems should also be solved. Some problems that have been found are problems accumulated over a long period of time, which should be taken as a key point, make up the short board. 3126 with the full launch of the third batch of central environmental protection inspectors, the central environmental protection inspectors have covered 23 provinces, and the results of phased inspectors have also been announced recently. The national environmental protection supervision office announced on May 11 that it is conducting the third batch of central authorities in 7 provinces and cities.
