Chemical plants told to clean up their acts
Print Edition
AUTHORITIES in Jinshan District, which is home to a bustling chemical industry, are planning to launch a cleanup campaign before the end of the year, a top official said yesterday.
District Party chief Li Yueqi said the government has set a two-year target to improve air and water quality.
“We will strengthen law enforcement with regards to polluting enterprises,” he said.
“We will rectify problems that need to be rectified, close plants that need to be closed and transform companies that need to be transformed,” he said.
Li said the government is reliant on help from the public to achieve its goals and has set up a hotline (021-67961048) for people to report environmental abuses and provide tipoffs.
“Most companies in Jinshan have the ability to operate in a safe and environmentally friendly way,” the official said.
“But they have abandoned good management methods and rejected new technology, which has resulted in the current situation,” he said.
“With hard work over the next few years, I am confident Jinshan can become the most active district in the city in cracking down on polluters and promoting environmental protection,” he said.
