On November 23, the Ministry of Environmental Protection gave an example. Aiming at promoting the third-party governance of environmental pollution, Yu Yanxin, head of the Planning Finance Department of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, pointed out that the market is not very active at present, and the next step is to focus on these four aspects.
According to the microblog of the Department of Publicity and Education of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, on November 23, the Ministry of Environmental Protection gave an example of a press conference. Yu Yanxin, head of the Planning and Finance Department of the Ministry of Environmental Protection, pointed out that the supervision of third-party governance should be strengthened, and third-party units should be encouraged to publicize relevant information voluntarily and accept social supervision.
At the meeting, a reporter asked: In August this year, the Ministry of Environmental Protection promulgated the "Opinions on Promoting the Implementation of Third Party Governance of Environmental Pollution". What are the next targeted measures?
You Yanxin introduced that environmental pollution control is very professional and technical. The document issued by the Ministry of Environmental Protection in August is of great significance to the promotion of environmental protection.
First, it is conducive to improving the efficiency of enterprise pollution control. The implementation of third-party environmental pollution control by professional and technical personnel, as well as the operation of environmental service companies with rich management experience, is conducive to reducing the cost of enterprise pollution control and improving the efficiency of pollution control.
Second, it is conducive to promoting the healthy development of the environmental protection industry. The environmental protection service company has expanded from the simple equipment manufacturing in the past to the operation and management of the project construction, which has provided a new impetus for the growth of the enterprise itself, and further promoted the rapid development of the entire environmental protection industry and the improvement of environmental governance.
Third, it is conducive to promoting the improvement of environmental quality. The responsibility of sewage treatment enterprises is transferred and centralized to environmental service companies through contracts. As the main body of pollution control, sewage treatment enterprises will supervise environmental protection enterprises together with environmental protection departments, which can effectively reduce the risk of environmental pollution incidents and promote the improvement of environmental governance.
You Yanxin introduced that from the current work of third-party pollution control, enterprises are very enthusiastic and enthusiastic to participate. But because some local policies are still relatively backward, the system and mechanism are not perfect, the key is that some safeguard mechanisms have not been established, so the reflections of sewage enterprises are not uniform. We believe that there are still some problems in advancing this work. For example, the responsibility is not clear, the industry is not standardized, the information is asymmetric, and the price mechanism is not perfect.
You Yanxin pointed out that the market is still not very active, and the next step is to focus on these four aspects of work.
The first is to guide and regulate the behavior of third party governance, follow up the responsibility of third party, guide and regulate the operation of third party facilities, strengthen the guidance and guidance of supporting policies, explore the mechanism of introducing third party payment, guarantee the rights and interests of pollutant discharge units and treatment units by means of environmental performance payment, and establish compulsory insurance system for environmental pollution.
Second, we should strengthen the supervision of third-party governance, comprehensively implement the relevant requirements of environmental protection laws and regulations, further strengthen environmental supervision and law enforcement, increase media exposure to major typical cases, and explore the formulation of supporting policies for third-party governance enterprise supervision.
Third, we should encourage the innovation of third-party governance mechanisms and modes, establish a reserve of third-party governance pilot projects, compile and publish some relevant cases, and guide and encourage enterprises to innovate related mechanisms and modes.
Fourth, encourage information disclosure, the key to third-party governance is also information disclosure, accelerate the relevant policies of third-party information disclosure, project experience, and build information platforms, encourage third-party units to take the initiative to publish relevant information on these platforms and accept social supervision.
