Recently, the MEP held a video conference on banning the entry of foreign rubbish to promote the reform of the import management system of solid waste, which emphasized that it is necessary to firmly establish and faithfully implement the 'Four Awareness' and resolutely implement the spirit of General Instructions on General Instructions from Xi Jinping and unswervingly grasp Good prohibition of foreign garbage into the territory of this landmark ecological civilization initiatives.Then, the foreign garbage control what progress? How effective? This edition of special tracking information to readers.
A firm attitude, many departments have introduced measures
'The implementation plan for the reform of the ban on the import of foreign rubbish to promote the reform of the import management system of solid waste (hereinafter referred to as the' program ') is a great advantage for the recycling of domestic renewable resources', said Tang Yanju, the business unit director of China Renewable Resources Recycling Association.
Since the issuance of the "Program", MEP, in conjunction with all localities and departments, has taken all measures and taken various measures in various ways to achieve a general reduction in the volume of solid waste imports. As Minister of Environmental Protection Li Ganjie emphasized, We must profoundly understand, accurately grasp, and follow suit "the program", implement the new development concept, improve the quality of the environment, protect the health of the people, and enhance the level of domestic solid waste recycling.
Tang Yanju said: "Combating the smuggling of foreign rubbish and strengthening the regulation of imported waste reflects the determination of the rulers, which is conducive to nurturing enterprises that are governed by the environmental protection requirements, phasing out enterprises that are not self - managing, and urging industries to upgrade their management standards.
In recent years, our country has achieved remarkable results in combating the smuggling of foreign rubbish and strengthening the supervision of imported waste.Underbiting the import of foreign rubbish as a landmark measure for the construction of ecological civilization, we must unswervingly promote this reform and strictly control the various control measures. All departments should exercise their respective roles and actively cooperate with each other to deepen, refine and implement the various tasks.
MEP further perfected the system and strictly controlled the access threshold for solid waste. The Catalog of Imported Waste Management (2017) was printed and distributed in 24 categories including 4 types of waste plastics, unsorted waste paper and waste textile raw materials Solid waste was transferred to the Catalog of Import Banned Solid Waste, and 11 "Control Standards for Environmental Protection of Solid Waste Imported as Raw Materials" were being revised to increase the control index of the entrained material comprehensively.
As a foreign rubbish import and export control department, the customs department actively carried out relevant actions.Zhang Guangzhi of the General Administration of Customs spokesman said in an interview that in recent years, the General Administration of Customs has deployed the 'hedge', ' Sword 'and many other special operations and the' Goddess of the earth 'international joint enforcement actions to crack down on foreign garbage smuggling, and achieved remarkable results.
In order to implement the "plan," the next step will be to continue cracking down foreign trade in smuggling of smuggled garbage and severely crack down on smuggling of foreign rubbish and domestic illegal processing and sales. Meanwhile, the supervision and special Inspection, continue to increase the fight against hiding cargo channels, smuggling and smuggling of smuggled sea smuggling efforts, resolutely refused to toxic and hazardous waste outside the country.
Import of solid waste inspection is a highly professional work. "Program" after the introduction of the relevant departments in charge of quality inspection departments told reporters that will actively adjust the inspection and quarantine regulatory policies to improve and perfect the inspection system of imported raw materials inspection and strengthening of capacity-building , Take targeted measures to prevent foreign imports of rubbish.
2 achieved remarkable results. Positive progress was made in the management of 'foreign litter'
'Foreign trash' so rampant is driven by the interests of the results.Industry sources, 'foreign trash' in the selection of waste newspapers priced at over 2,000 yuan per ton, sorted out Coke bottles, bottles of mineral water and other waste plastics Prices of more than 40,000 yuan per ton, the profit turned a few times, hundreds of times. In the face of high profits, some unscrupulous elements at the risk of recklessly, in their own self-interest wantonly imported 'foreign trash' In some places, foreign trash smuggling , Solid waste import license transfer has even formed a complete black industry chain.
In response, the environmental protection department strictly supervises and comprehensively applies policies, and withdraws import licenses in accordance with laws and regulations in response to serious environmental violations such as deceptive fraud and illegal transfer of permits.
Tang Yanju said: "The policy will be tightened and the strict rules will be imposed to force exporters to sort the rubbish for export before re-export, meanwhile, to standardize enterprises' applications for the import license for solid waste."
Strict supervision at the same time, but also to crack down on illegal activities.In July this year, cracking down on imports of waste processing and use of corporate environmental violations of special operations, 1700 people formed 60 inspection teams, went around the country on the 1792 import waste processing enterprises, Pull network, full coverage of different places of law enforcement inspection, greatly deter the environmental violations.Especially lack of environmental awareness, legal awareness, there are chances of the enterprise, as well as the implementation of the responsibility of local government enterprises in place, conducted in-depth and meticulous Check the local environmental protection departments without proper reason not to investigate and deal with the case, the implementation of ineffective, slow progress, interviews with the main people in charge of the local municipal people's government; after the interview is still not done, start the accountability mechanism.
Through the integration of environmental law enforcement, monitoring, solid waste management forces, the integrated use of access to archives, on-site exploration and other means, the entire special action put forward a total of 1074 companies put forward proposals for handling the punishment, accounting for 60% of the country by the end of this year, environmental protection The ministry will also carry out a "look back" on the special campaigns in 2017 to effectively consolidate the effectiveness of special campaigns and promote the rectification and reform of illegal enterprises.
Multi-sectoral linkage, played a beautiful combination of punches.Accounting Department of the General Administration of Customs, Ministry of Public Security, AQSIQ jointly launched a 9-month intensive supervision and strict crackdown on illegal activities of foreign rubbish, The whole process of supervision of imports of solid waste supervision.
On September 3 this year, Hangzhou Customs implemented a return shipment of 1075 tons of solid waste "electrolytic aluminum anode block" that was banned in Wenzhou port.
On Sept. 13, 318.7 tons of unqualified environmentally-friendly waste paper seized by the Nanjing Customs under Lianyungang Customs was lifted by CNOOC Long Beach in Lianyungang Port.
On Sept. 21, a batch of more than 1,000 tons of solid waste seized by Shijiazhuang Customs was transported out of Jingtang Port with "Guangping" round.
The exposure of these typical cases demonstrates our firm determination to crack down on environmental violations in the processing and utilization of imported waste.
3 multi-cooperation, long-term mechanism is taking shape
The supervision of foreign rubbish involves many departments, and the MEP will further increase its cooperation with relevant law enforcement departments such as the General Administration of Customs, quality inspection and other relevant departments to intensify the crackdown on illegal activities of smuggling solid waste and give full play to the enforcement information of environmental protection, customs and quality inspection departments Circular mechanism to strengthen the whole process of solid waste imports supervision. Multi-party cooperation, and resolutely 'foreign garbage' blocking the country outside.
More than 10 days after the "Proposal" was announced, MEP dismantled the joint development and reform commission, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Ministry of Public Security, Ministry of Commerce, SAIC, dismantling e-waste, waste tires, waste plastics, Recycling and other industries, carried out a period of 5 months of clean-up rectification.
The rectification and elimination according to law banned a number of heavily polluting illegal recycling companies, focusing on remediation processing and utilization of distribution centers, while regulating the healthy development of a number of recycling enterprises .At present, the rectification action has been completed deployment, Mo Pai, is in the stage of clean-up rectification. , Will complete the sampling summary.
In the coastal provinces where the enterprises that import and process solid waste are concentrated and utilized, many cities and districts are strengthening cooperation among departments and improving the coordination and cooperation mechanism. While strengthening the management of imported solid waste and environmental management, we formulate or plan system measures to promote the import management of solid waste System reform, build a solid 'foreign trash' prevention and control system.
In Fujian, the customs department seized 3 smuggled solid waste gangs in the first quarter of this year and seized more than 2,000 tons of solid waste imported by the state on the spot. After the environmental protection departments learned the facts, they listed the illegal enterprises as "blacklists" and carried out investigations in various places. Prevent similar problems from happening.
In Guangdong, Lufeng organized law enforcement forces such as public security, transportation, self-defense and environmental protection, and market supervision. They were divided into two operational teams on land and sea to conduct 24-hour non-stop inspections and control over the Jishiwan waters and surrounding roads, Illegal inflows.
In addition to carrying out special actions at the national level, the long-term mechanism for blocking the entry of foreign rubbish also needs to be established and perfected in order to solve the problem of foreign rubbish. This includes implementing the principal responsibilities of enterprises, strengthening the supervision of daily law enforcement and intensifying the investigation and punishment of illegal activities; Establishing an international cooperation mechanism, launching regional joint law enforcement operations in due course; promoting the transformation of trade and processing modes and opening up new channels for renewable resources.
Related companies are the main sense of responsibility is increasing.Shanghai Tianqiang Environmental Protection Technology Co., Ltd. is engaged in recycling of waste plastics, a domestic enterprise, Vice President Hu Xichao told reporters: 'The prohibition of foreign garbage entry policy for domestic plastic recycling opportunities. Actively respond to the past six months, increased channel construction, the prospects are bright.
In the past, enterprises focused more on the treatment of water and gas and ignored the importance attached to the soil, and strengthening the management of solid waste disposal was instrumental in urging enterprises to make leaks and fill vacancies in a self-sufficient manner as required by environmental protection policies, Tang said.
At present, in order to promote the development of the domestic solid waste recycling industry, the resource recycling industry has been included in the strategic emerging industries. We will explore the improvement and breakthrough of technologies that will render solid waste harmless and resource efficient, and continuously improve the management of waste recycling and utilization Waste classification level, promote enterprises, social organizations and the public to participate in environmental protection and resource conservation.
