According to the content of the report,As early as September 2022, people have reported to the Fengshun Branch of the Meizhou Ecological Environment Bureau that someone was dumping solid waste in Rongshujiao, Hou'an Village, Tangkeng Town. After entrusting a hazardous waste identification agency to sample and test the dumping site, in April 2023, the Fengshun County Public Security Bureau filed a case for investigation.
Zhang Shunliang, deputy director of the Fengshun branch of the Meizhou Municipal Bureau of Ecology and Environment, said that after receiving the report, an agency had been commissioned to sample and test the dumping site, and the identification report showed that the landfill did not have the dangerous characteristics of leaching toxicity exceeding the standardHowever, it has the dangerous characteristics of excessive toxic substance content and belongs to hazardous waste. The site has a polluted area of about 400 square meters, a depth of about 3 meters, and an estimated total of 1,800 tons of pollutants.
Xu Bilin, chairman of the Tangkeng Town People's Congress, also said that the main work is to dispose of the illegal dumping of hazardous waste, and the dangerous goods should be excavated and sorted to the warehouse next to it for temporary storage, and finally transported to a professional company for disposal.
The first sampling was carried out half a month after receiving the report
In response to the circular, some voices on the Internet questioned whether there was a delay in processing.

Therefore, half a month later, on October 11, 2022, the Fengshun Branch of the Meizhou Ecological Environment Bureau and Tangkeng Town** sent personnel to the site for the first time to take samples and send the samples to the Meizhou Ecological Environment Monitoring Station for testing and analysisThere is no delay in taking samples until four months later.

The staff member said that in January 2023, the Fengshun Branch of the Meizhou Ecological Environment Bureau commissioned a hazardous waste identification agency to conduct sampling at the landfill site is the second sampling and testing, and the main purpose is to confirm whether the landfill is hazardous waste and determine the specific type of hazardous waste.
Clean-up and disposal work
Why is it delayed until 2024?
Regarding the CCTV reporter's mention of why the clean-up and disposal work was delayed until 2024, the staff member said that because the hazardous waste identification agency entrusted with secondary sampling and testing only issued an identification report on March 28, 2023, confirming that the landfill is hazardous waste. Only when there is a relevant report can the Fengshun Branch of the Meizhou Municipal Ecological Environment Bureau transfer the case to the County Public Security Bureau. Out of the need to investigate and collect evidence during the investigation, Tangkeng Town protected the scene.
Subsequently, on April 24, 2023, the Fengshun County Public Security Bureau filed a case for investigation; On August 2, 2023, the county public security bureau took criminal detention measures against Xu Mouli, a criminal suspect suspected of polluting the environment; On August 7, Xu Mouxiang was criminally detained; On November 16, the county public security bureau took criminal coercive measures against Xu Moufa, the owner of the dumping convoy.
