The State Environmental Protection Administration will start environmental risk investigations in 127 sensitive chemical projects and accept “security inspections”.

On February 7, Pan Yue, deputy director of the State Environmental Protection Administration, said that from now on, the State Environmental Protection Administration carried out environmental risk investigations on 127 chemical projects located in the vicinity of environmentally sensitive areas such as coastal areas, densely populated areas, and nature reserves throughout the country.
After the Songhua River water pollution incident occurred, the State Environmental Protection Administration conducted a national environmental safety inspection. The inspection results show that there are obvious structural and structural environmental risks in the chemical and petrochemical industry. In the event of a sudden pollution accident, the consequences will be very serious. To this end, the State Environmental Protection Administration decided to conduct environmental risk assessment and emergency plan investigations for 127 key chemical and petrochemical projects located in the vicinity of environmentally sensitive areas such as coastal areas, densely populated areas, and nature reserves.
It is understood that these projects involve 25 provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities with a total investment of nearly 450 billion yuan. Among them, 87 were distributed in the coastal areas of the rivers, lakes and lakes, accounting for 68.5%; 60 were located in the vicinity of the city or densely populated areas, accounting for 47.2% of the total; are located at the intake (or production) of water sources or natural reserves, important fisheries Thirty-seven (37.1%) of the aquatic and rare aquatic habitats accounted for 29.1%. Pan Yue said that the chemical and petrochemical complex industrial parks, bases and construction projects and other toxic and hazardous materials construction projects that are found to have hidden potential environmental risks during the investigation will be formulated, improved, and implemented for environmental risk accident prevention and emergency response plans. Risk assessment management measures.
At the same time, SEPA decided to deploy Shandong Jinan Yuxing Chemical Plant on the bank of the river, Gansu Lanzhou New West Vinylon Co., Ltd., Liaoning Liaoyang Qingyang Chemical (Group) Co., Ltd., and Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province Chemical companies, Qinghai Yuzhong County Xinfei Chemical Co., Ltd., Hunan Zhuzhou Zhuzhou Chemical Group Co., Ltd., Anhui Province Tongling Ananda Titanium Industry Co., Ltd., and other 11 companies with outstanding environmental problems are listed and supervised. The deadline for rectification.
In addition, the State Environmental Protection Administration also works on 180,000 tons of synthetic ammonia and 300,000 tons of urea for Shanxi Jincheng Chemical Fertilizer Plant, 300,000 tons of alumina project for Pingdingshan Huiyuan Chemical Industry Co., Ltd., and 1 million tons of annual coke for Shanxi Sunshine Coking Group Co., Ltd. Ten construction projects that violated the "three simultaneous" regulations, including technological reform projects, were investigated and dealt with.
