The 2022 No. 1 Central Document continues to focus on rural black and smelly water bodies

2022-06-17

On February 22, 2022, the "Opinions of the CPC Central Committee and The State Council on Comprehensively Promoting the Key Work of Rural Revitalization in 2022", i.e., the First document of the CPC Central Committee in 2022, was released.




Rural revitalization strategy is one of the seven development strategies in China, among which improving the rural environment is an important means and measure of rural revitalization. The no. 1 document of the Central Committee points out a roadmap for improving the rural environment for rural vitalization, which will be followed by a five-year campaign to improve the rural living environment.




It has to be seen that black and smelly water, as a big obstacle on the way of water ecological environment improvement, has become an important battlefield under the big project of rural living environment improvement. The no. 1 central government document also pointed out that the treatment of black and odorous water bodies in rural areas is one of the key tasks for rural revitalization this year, and will be accelerated.




It is not easy to eradicate the problem of black and smelly water bodies in rural areas




In the final analysis, black and smelly water is a problem of water ecology. Ecological improvement is not a matter of one or two days. It is common to "invest more but get less return". When the main battlefield of black and smelly water was still cities, the problem of black and smelly water often occurred. It reminds us that there is no shortcut to water ecological environment restoration and there is a long way to go to solve the problem of black and smelly water.




At present, the treatment of black and smelly water is gradually extended to rural areas. The leap from the city to the countryside is another re-examination of the experience acquired from the black and smelly water body and the further improvement of the treatment scheme. The governance of rural black and odorous water bodies also presents more difficulties. Industry experts point out that black, smelly water in rural areas not only affects the local water environment and aquatic life, but also affects the whole basin. This also shows to a certain extent that the governance of rural black and smelly water bodies is a comprehensive governance work that affects the whole body. It is necessary to find every black and smelly problem from the point and surface for collaborative governance. On the basis of the complex problem of black and smelly water bodies, exploring a new mode of local collaborative governance obviously increases the difficulty of governance.




In addition, according to the head of the Ministry of Ecology and Environment, the three-year project to clean up black and smelly water is still to be completed, and the direct investment has exceeded 1.5 trillion yuan. Time consuming, energy consuming and money consuming is another factor affecting the difficult treatment of black and smelly water bodies. If the governance of black and smelly water body is not thorough and fundamental, and it cannot be eliminated in a real sense, it may even show its true form again because of a heavy rain.




Good samples of black and smelly water treatment can only be exchanged for time and time again.




Rural black and smelly water treatment is halfway




In Handan, Hebei province, 78 rural water bodies with black and odours will be regulated by 2021




Handan city, hebei province in 2021, completed 78 out of the black smelly water in accordance with the "territorial management, graded responsibility, who is trying to identify who is responsible for" principle, has been clear about the responsibility main body, and in strict accordance with the "rural black smelly water management work instructions (try out)" regulation built up a parameter list, make sure the black smelly "identity" of the registration information to carry out the water, The county, township and village three levels of investigation responsibility were identified, and measures such as source control and pollution interception, dredging, water purification and ecological greening were taken to carry out rectification. After the inspection, local governments have set up a "responsibility card for the management and protection of rural black and odorous water bodies", installed a monitoring "eye", and established a regular control mechanism based on local conditions.




Guizhou province completed the control of black and odorous water bodies in six rural areas last year




According to the Guizhou Department of Ecology and Environment, the province had completed the remediation of six rural black and odorous water bodies by the end of 2021. Among them, sewage treatment and resource utilization will be carried out in areas with concentrated black and smelly water bodies in accordance with local conditions. For the rural black and smelly water bodies under supervision, "pull strips to charge the accounts and write off the numbers one by one", take the black and smelly water bodies that people generally care about and pay attention to as the focus of treatment, and gradually solve the prominent problems of rural water environment.




In the next step, Guizhou province will continue to promote the implementation and refinement of rural domestic sewage treatment. By 2025, 60% of rural black and smelly water bodies will be regulated by the state.




At the national level, the key tasks for the treatment of rural black and smelly water bodies in the future are as follows:




We will get to the bottom of the country's rural black and malodorous water bodies, establish a treatment ledger, and define the priority of treatment. We will carry out trials for the treatment of black and malodorous water bodies in rural areas, focusing on those in front and back of houses, rivers, ponds and canals, and those in which the public has strong complaints. We will take comprehensive measures to control source and cut off pollution, remove silt and dredge, restore ecosystems, and purify water bodies, so as to basically eliminate large areas of black and malodorous water bodies, and develop a number of models that can be copied and promoted. Establish and improve the long-term operation and maintenance mechanism to improve water quality.
