Prevention and treatment of "garbage storage" during the flood season

It has just passed the summer flood season in many places across the country. The heavy rainfall and floods have caused lakes, reservoirs, and rivers to face the pressure of safe operation, but also encountered risk of pollution.

In the interview with reporters in the half -monthly talk about reporters in the northeast, North China, and southwestern region, after the rainstorm, various types of domestic garbage scattered or stacked on the ground were rushed into the reservoir with the water. Collection pool.

A similar "garbage entry" phenomenon reflects the shortcomings of rural waste governance in some places, and requires relevant responsible entities such as local governments, rivers and reservoirs to strengthen the governance and source governance.

After the rainstorm, "garbage enters the warehouse"

In late July, the reporter came to a large reservoir in a somewhere in the northeast as a large reservoir in the northeast. After several heavy rain, the reservoir was flooding. The reporter saw that there were many waste beverage bottles, packaging bags, foam boxes, agricultural membranes and other white garbage floating on the surface of the reservoir. With the water level, some vegetation on the shore was covered by these garbage.

The reservoir managers told reporters in Banyue to report that when heavy rainfall occurred in the flood season, the flood would bring various garbage to the reservoir together.

These are not all of the garbage. The reporter came to the rear of the reservoir by the reporter. From the top to the downstream, the reservoir set up a total of 4 iron nets to intercept garbage. These nets went deep into the bottom. Wait for garbage. "These webs cannot intercept garbage, sometimes there are too many garbage that rushes, and the network will be washed away." Reservoir staff said.

On the shore of the reservoir, more than 10 workers in life jackets just came off the garbage salvage boat. They said that these garbage used in branches and straws, and white garbage such as plastic bottles and packaging bags also accounted for a large proportion. "You can pick up dozens of sacks in one day to fill a boat."

The person in charge of the reservoir told Banyue Tan reporter that since the flood season this year, the amount of garbage they salvaged had reached 10,000 cubic meters. "There is no other way for this white garbage. It can only be manually salvaged and collected. It has spent more than 100,000 yuan in paying labor costs alone. Especially this year's water is large, and the cost of spending in July has exceeded the sum of the whole year last year. "

In a heavy rain, the phenomenon of garbage was rushed into the reservoir is not uncommon. Since the flood this year, Jiangxi, Hunan, Henan and other places have appeared in "garbage into the warehouse".

Taking the Ouyanghai Reservoir in Hunan Province as an example, the 5 rounds of rainfall since the flood caused 6,000 cubic meters of garbage floating bands with a weight of about 2,000 tons in front of the dam. It is reported that in the past four years, the Ouyanghai Reservoir Administration has invested more than 800,000 yuan a year for special funds for the salvage and cleaning of garbage in front of the dam. This year, this year is expected to exceed 1 million yuan.

Insufficient garbage treatment, insufficient linkage treatment

In addition to affecting the water quality, some garbage will be degraded in the water, causing the water body to be nutritious and affecting the ecological environment of the reservoir. At the same time, garbage deposition will also affect the reservoir capacity, bringing hidden dangers to flood prevention work. The reporter's investigation was disclosed that some rural areas were not in place, and it became an important reason for the "garbage into the warehouse" during the flood season.

In a village near the water source in a province in North China, the reporter saw that a reporter saw that a row of small buildings on the second floor was built by a ditch. The residents of the Lintou often poured the garbage directly into the ditch. The residents here told reporters that when it rained, the water was able to wash away the garbage.

"Affected by traditional production and living habits, rural garbage is abandoned, and the phenomenon of daily sewage flow still exists. These garbage that is casual and saved in the ditch will flow into the library with the rainstorm." Although the region has established garbage and sewage treatment facilities, it does not clearly clearly operate and maintain units. In some areas, the operational funds of some areas are not implemented, resulting in the same formulation of some treatment facilities.

The reporter interviewed in a remote countryside in a remote countryside in a county in southwest. A few years ago, every local natural village built a garbage pond on the side of the village's highway. The garbage in the village was stored here, and it was burned once at a time. However, some leaders in the county believed that the construction of the garbage pond on the side of the road affected the perception and ordered all the demolition. The local area had to uniformly pull the garbage in the village to a remote place in the valley simply.

In April of this year, a large amount of garbage was found 100 meters downstream in a water source in a water source in a county in North China. The surrounding villagers said that the garbage dumped in the area was mainly domestic waste and construction waste. Some garbage exuded a bad odor, forming a sharp contrast to the signs of warning signs, responsibilities, publicity signs, and "first -level drinking water sources" signs.

Some grass -roots cadres said that there are also imperfect linkage governance mechanisms in river governance. Some river channels are often valued only the last paragraph, and the pollution problem may be in the entire river section. What's more, there is a wrong idea of ​​"spending my money and treating your water" in some upstream areas. They are unwilling to strengthen governance and leave pollution to downstream.

Staring at the blind zone of governance and guarding the water

Grass -roots cadres and relevant experts believe that the prevention and control of "garbage entry" needs to start with rural waste governance at the source, and at the same time establish a management and control mechanism of linkage and control of all parties, and improve the construction of reservoir garbage prevention facilities.

In recent years, rural areas have vigorously promoted garbage governance, but the effectiveness of various places has been greatly different. Some villages do real, and some villages are perfunctory. Grass -roots cadres believe that solving the problem of rural waste treatment, we must strengthen classification and collection at the front end, reasonably layout and transfer at the middle end, and strengthen the processing capacity of the process at the back end, especially to supplement the shortcomings of rural waste treatment facilities. Townships and villages should also come up with governance methods, such as incorporating rural health into village regulations and adopting incentive measures to improve villagers' awareness of environmental protection. The phenomenon of "garbage into the warehouse" also puts forward higher requirements for the river and lake system, and the normalized river patrol system needs to further expand depth and breadth. Some areas such as river channels and water sources have been seriously affected by tissues and other organizations, and they have established patrols and other organizations to guard the pollution issues throughout the weather. However, similar temporary team control effects are often short, and long -term law enforcement teams can be established in areas where problems are prominent. At the same time, clarify the responsible subject and division of labor of reservoir garbage, forcing the upstream of the reservoir to do a good job of garbage treatment.

In addition, a number of grass -roots reservoir managers told reporters in the half -month to talk about the need to improve garbage interception facilities to change the current situation of only passive salvage and handling of garbage. For the collected garbage, it is necessary to further clarify the responsibility of the relevant parties, open up all aspects of garbage treatment, and implement the source of funds.
