Zhaoqing uses ecological "green content" to enhance development "gold content"
From January to September 2024, a total of 285 projects were approved, including 23 projects for preparing environmental impact reports and 262 projects for preparing environmental impact report forms. The total project investment exceeded 47.9 billion yuan, and the environmental protection investment exceeded 4.2 billion yuan.
The reporter recently learned that since the beginning of this year, the Ecological Environment Bureau of Zhaoqing City, Guangdong Province has deepened the implementation of policies and measures for the high-quality development of ecological and environmental protection services, given full play to the leading, optimizing and pressing role of the ecological environment, and coordinated the promotion of high-quality economic development and high-level protection of the ecological environment, effectively stimulating the development of green productivity and new quality productivity.
"In terms of the EIA approval work, we proposed 'seven-star service'." A staff member of the Zhaoqing City Ecological Environment Bureau said that the bureau has strengthened access guidance, intervened in the preliminary work of project environmental impact assessment approval in advance, guided all localities to fully explore the emission reduction potential of major pollutants, optimize the allocation of total pollutant indicators, and provide high-quality and efficient environmental impact assessment approval services for project implementation. Promote the rapid implementation and effective implementation of projects.
At the same time, we will strictly enforce environmental access, give full play to the role of "regulators" and "control valves" in the project environmental assessment, and give priority to supporting the introduction of green and low-carbon projects that are in line with the region's leading industries, are in line with the "three lines and one order", with clean production levels, major pollutant emissions and carbon emission intensity. Green and low-carbon projects that are at the advanced level of international and domestic industries, strictly enforce the access of high-energy-consuming, high-emission, and low-level projects to further improve the "green content","carbon content" and "gold content" of the project.
In order to promote the greening, recycling and scientific industrial layout, the Zhaoqing City Ecological Environment Bureau, with the consent of the Zhaoqing City Government, issued the "2023 Dynamic Update List of Ecological Environment Zoning Control Achievements of Zhaoqing City" on July 11 this year, continuing to strengthen ecological environment source control, giving full play to the leading role of ecological environment zoning control in the source prevention system, and strengthening the role of "three lines and one single" ecological environment zoning control results in industrial layout, park planning, Application in project site selection and other aspects. At the same time, promote the linkage between planning environmental assessment and project environmental assessment, and continue to give full play to the leading role of planning environmental assessment in regional development and industrial layout.
The Zhaoqing City Ecological Environment Bureau has also strengthened assistance planning guidance and promoted the planning and warehousing of EOD projects. By strengthening policy guidance for local units to plan EOD, we will do a good job in municipal audits, coordinate and connect provincial reviews, and promote projects to enter the provincial project library and strive to enter the national project library.
Up to now, the EOD project in Gaoyao Xiweiyong in Zhaoqing has been included in the provincial project library, with a total investment scale of 1.88 billion yuan, of which approximately 390 million yuan is invested in ecological environment management projects and approximately 1.49 billion yuan is invested in industrial investment.
