The scene of the press conference.

In recent years, the Zhongshan Municipal Department of Ecology and Environment has continued to promote ecological and environmental legislation, standardize environmental governance standards, and timely issue supporting work guidelines for key work.

Build a production chain of ecological environment education and publicity.

Ecological and environmental education is an important part of ecological and environmental protection. In recent years, the ecological and environmental education in Guangdong Province has been improved and developed through the establishment of education bases, but there are still many problems. In order to effectively solve the contradictions in ecological and environmental education, Guangdong Province has formulated the Regulations on Ecological and Environmental Education in Guangdong Province (hereinafter referred to as the "Regulations").

The Regulations clarify the responsibilities of state organs, schools, families, key environmental supervision units and other parties for ecological and environmental education. Du Min, director of the Zhongshan Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment, introduced that the "Regulations" proposed that state organs, enterprises and institutions, and mass organizations should strengthen the ecological and environmental education of their staffEncourage all schools to organize and carry out teaching, scientific research and social practice activities related to ecological and environmental education, and at the same time encourage, guide and support science and technology museums, cultural centers, scenic spots, nature reserves, parks and enterprises, scientific research institutes, laboratories, environmental protection facilities and other units or places with ecological environmental publicity and education functions to create ecological environmental education bases.

In order to effectively promote the effective implementation of the system, the "Regulations" also require the people at or above the county level to make overall plans to ensure the funding of ecological and environmental education, and strengthen daily supervision and education, the competent department of ecology and environment shall, in conjunction with relevant departments, organize and carry out ecological environmental education teacher training and curriculum development, build a learning platform under the framework of the digital system, and share educational resources with the society. At the same time, the "Regulations" stipulate that collectives and individuals who have made outstanding contributions to ecological and environmental education shall be commended and rewarded from both positive and negative aspects.

Next, we will evaluate the effect of the relevant municipal departments (units) and the ecological environment education work in Zhongshan City, and include the ecological environment education work in the assessment of the responsibility of pollution prevention and control, so as to build a three-in-one ecological civilization propaganda and education pattern of 'government, enterprise and society'. Du Min said, "The Zhongshan Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment will take the "Guangdong Provincial Ecological Environment Education Regulations" as an opportunity to formulate the "Zhongshan City Implementation of the Guangdong Provincial Ecological Environment Education Regulations" Action Plan and related normative documents, carry out 'deep processing' of resource products, and form a standardized ecological environment education and publicity boutique production chain." ”

Save the processing time of enterprises.

In order to further optimize the administrative examination and approval procedures, shorten the administrative examination and approval time, and innovate the "benefiting enterprises" initiative, Zhongshan City revised the "Implementation Plan for the Parallel Examination and Approval of Environmental Impact Assessment Documents and Pollutant Discharge Permits of Zhongshan Ecological Environment Bureau (Trial)" (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan"), which is guided by the optimization of ecological environment approval services and takes linkage examination and approval as the starting point to further optimize the approval procedures and shorten the approval time.

The reporter learned that according to the previous conventional work process, the environmental impact assessment document of the construction project is approved before applying for its pollutant discharge permit, and the total time required for the two approval items is relatively long, which is not conducive to the investment and construction projects of enterprises. The implementation of the "Plan" can achieve the goal of "submitting one material and completing two approvals" to benefit enterprises and reduce the processing time of about one month for enterprises.

Hu Ziguan, deputy director of the Zhongshan Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment, introduced that the applicant submitted the application materials for the two approval items simultaneously through the "Guangdong Government Service Network" (environmental impact assessment and approval items) and the "National Pollutant Discharge Permit Management Information Platform" (pollutant discharge permit approval items).

The Plan is applicable to the joint examination and approval of the environmental impact assessment documents (hereinafter referred to as the "project EIA") and the pollutant discharge permit of construction projects within the jurisdiction of Zhongshan City. The examination and approval department will simultaneously conduct a formal review of the application materials for the two approval items submitted by the enterprise, and inform the applicants who are not within the scope of application of the Plan, the application materials are incomplete or do not conform to the statutory form on the spot or within the statutory time limit. After the acceptance is passed, the examination and approval department will simultaneously review whether the application for the two approval items meets the statutory conditions and standards, and at the same time carry out public participation in the approval process, and promise that the time limit for the joint examination and approval of the two matters will not exceed 3 working days (excluding the time for technical assessment and publicity).

The project EIA approval materials meet the requirements of the approval, and the problem with the pollutant discharge certificate materials will not affect the approval of the project EIA. Hu Ziguan said, "In the process of applying for linkage approval, if the project EIA approval application meets the statutory conditions and standards, but the application for pollutant discharge permit approval does not meet the statutory conditions and standards, the project EIA approval application will be approved in accordance with the law, and the application for pollutant discharge permit approval will not be approved in accordance with the law." In addition, the materials provided by the enterprise in the application for linkage approval process are exactly the same as all the materials required for the two approval matters separately, and the enterprise only needs to check the option of 'applying for the linkage approval of the environmental impact assessment document of the construction project and the pollutant discharge permit' in the "Application for Approval of the Environmental Impact Assessment Document of the Construction Project", and does not need to provide other materials. ”

Assist in the supervision of river outlets.

The sewage outlet into the river is an important node of the ecological and environmental protection of the river basin, which plays an important role in strengthening and standardizing the supervision and management of the sewage outlet, improving the quality of the water ecological environment, and protecting and building beautiful rivers, lakes and bays. However, the situation of the river outfall is complex, and in actual work, the staff often encounter problems such as the unclear definition of various types of outfalls, the difficulty in implementing the main body of responsibility, and the inconsistency of supervision and operation standards, so a set of clear and clear work guidelines is urgently needed.

To this end, Zhongshan City took the lead in the province to comprehensively and systematically sort out the work related to the supervision and management of river outlets, and issued the Guidelines for the Supervision and Management of River Outlets in Zhongshan City (hereinafter referred to as the "Work Guidelines"), which is the first comprehensive and systematic work guide in Guangdong Province to comprehensively and systematically sort out the supervision and management of river outlets.

The "Work Guidelines" cover the scope of application, the classification of sewage outlets, the formulation of sewage outlet lists, the implementation of responsible entities, the establishment of audits, etc., and specifically stipulate the work requirements for setting up audits, setting up acceptance, etc., and provide staff with clear and practical operational guidelines.

Deng Yaojie, chief engineer of Zhongshan Ecological Environment Bureau, introduced that the "work guidelines" clarified the classification of sewage outlets, the formulation of sewage outlet lists, and the implementation of the main body of responsibility, which are the three foundations for promoting the remediation and supervision of sewage outlets into the river. The "Work Guidelines" fill the gap in the supervision and regulation of river outlets in Zhongshan City, and at the same time help the development of the supervision of river outlets.

In addition, the "Work Guidelines" also clarify the main content scope of the supervision and management of river outlets, summarize and classify the work, delineate the direction and objectives of the work, and also provide detailed operation steps, corresponding flow charts and summary tables to supplement the explanation.

In order to better implement the "Work Guidelines", the relevant departments will do a good job in publicity and interpretation, standardize the supervision of sewage outlets, take the remediation and supervision and management of sewage outlets as an important part of the work, and include them in the city's environmental protection responsibility and pollution prevention and control assessment, and strengthen public participation in supervision, forming a good situation of joint supervision and collaborative governance of the whole society. Deng Yaojie said.
