Recently, the topic of "gambling" Yellow River water quality in Henan and Shandong has attracted attention. This "gambling" originated from the "Yellow River Basin (Yulu section) horizontal ecological protection compensation agreement" signed in Henan and Shandong in 2021 (hereinafter referred to as the "Agreement"). According to the "Agreement", due to the more than a year, the quality of the Yellow River has maintained the water quality of Lu Shui. As a beneficiary, Shandong Province, as the beneficiary, redeemed 126 million yuan in ecological compensation funds to the upstream Henan Province. Regarding this "gambling", no matter whether Henan or Shandong, no one is a loser, and the "Mother River" Yellow River is also the ultimate beneficiary.

The Liukou Floating Bridge at the junction of the Yellow River Lu and Yu is the "witness" of 126 million yuan in Yu Lu.

A win -win "gambling"

On the Yellow River at the junction of Henan and Shandong, a bridge connects Puyang County and Dongming County, Puyang County, Puyang City. The pontoon bridge is about 1,000 meters long. On the south side of the bridge is Dongming County, and the north is Puyang County. The vehicles of the Henan J and Lu R license plate pass through from time to time.

The rolling Yellow River passed through the bridge quietly. The lush reeds on the beach areas on both sides of the bank, coupled with the learning cool breeze blowing from the river, attracted people on both sides of the strait to come and enjoy the comfort and leisure of this midsummer. "Middle! This scenery is really beautiful" "It's not stubborn here" ... People with different accents meet on this floating bridge, forming a humanistic landscape with the characteristics of Luyu region.

Beginning in April last year, a 120 million yuan "gambling contract" between Lu Yu even made this pontoon significant significant. At that time, Shandong and Henan signed the "Yellow River Basin (Yulu section) horizontal ecological protection compensation agreement". The agreement stipulates that the average annual value of the surveillance section is based on category III. Each improved water quality category, Shandong will give 60 million yuan in compensation funds in Henan for the protection of the Yellow River in Henan in the upstream of Henan; Henan gave Shandong 60 million yuan in compensation funds as compensation for "pollution treatment fees" in Shandong.

The monitoring point of the value specified in the Agreement -Liu Zhuangguo's control face is on Liukou Floating Bridge. From this level, this floating bridge has undoubtedly become the "witnesses" of this "gambling contract" and Lu Yu's provinces.

"Detectors are usually coming in the morning" "They are in the middle of the bridge, taking a few bottles of Yellow River water" ... This is the signing of the "gambling contract" for more than a year. impression.

What the villagers can't see are the changes in Lu Yu's "gambling" for more than a year.

On July 5th, at the press conference of the Shandong Provincial News Office, Yuan Peiquan, deputy director of the Shandong Provincial Department of Finance: The "Agreement" has been signed for one year, and the water quality of the Yellow River has always maintained the water quality above category. The pollutant index continues to decline. As a beneficiary, Shandong "willing to gamble to lose" has completed the delivery of ecological compensation funds of 126 million yuan from 2021 to 2022.

"Gambling" has losing or losing, but this "ecological gambling" is different. Henan worked hard to "control water" to get 126 million yuan; Shandong paid 126 million yuan to win the water quality, and it was also a winner. "In fact, if the upstream does not control the water quality, the downstream may pay more governance costs. Ecological compensation is the" win -win situation "of upstream and downstream." The relevant person in charge of the Ecological Environment of Henan Province said.

Lu Yu's "gambling" benefited from the Mother River of the Yellow River.

Where to win

It is undeniable that the "gambling contract" to win Lu Yu has made a lot of hard work in Henan upstream.

Qilu Evening News · Qilu Yiyi Reporter and Dahe News Heb · Henan Video reporter learned from the Henan Provincial Department of Ecological and Environment that in recent years, Henan scientific planning has been promoted in steps. In 2020, 29 special governance tasks such as the rectification of rivers and sewage were arranged. In 2021, the main points of ecological environmental protection work in the Yellow River Basin were issued, and 35 key tasks were planned. In 2022, the "Key Points for Ecological Environmental Protection of the Yellow River Basin in Henan Province in 2022" was issued, and 40 key tasks were planned.

In terms of water governance, Henan implemented the "one river and one strategy" rectification of the key tributary of the Yellow River. The province implemented a total of 422 comprehensive rectification projects, governing 136 dirty -water sewage outlets, and 298 township -level water source reserves. The Henan Provincial Department of Ecological and Environment has formulated standards for water pollutant emissions in the Yellow River Basin, issued 25 key technical guidelines for emission reduction measures in the water -related industry, and took the lead in completing ultra -low emissions and transformation of key industries such as steel and cement in the basin.

The effect of governance is immediate. In 2021, 35 (34 monitoring of 34) national examination sections under the jurisdiction of Henan Province, according to the average concentration of the assessment factors, 30 water sections of class Ⅰ to Ⅲ, accounting for 88.2%; Diversity is increasing.

And this "gambling contract" also made Shandong full.

On July 5th, at the press conference of the Shandong Provincial Government, Ge Weizheng, a first -level inspector of the Shandong Provincial Department of Ecological and Environment, introduced: In 2021, the proportion of excellent water bodies in Shandong National Control Water Broken Water was increased by 13.1 percentage points year -on -year, and the improvement ranked first in the country. The position, historic and comprehensively eliminating five types of water, and 153 broken water quality meets or better than four types of standards. "From January to May 2022, under the disadvantage of 55.1%less rainfall in the province than less than a year -on -year, and 62.8%year -on -year less, the excellent water body of the state -controlled surface water was still basically the same year -on -year. The proportion remains 0, which continues the good momentum of continuous improvement. "At the same time, the four ministries and commissions such as the Ministry of Finance have given the initiative to take the initiative to act, and lead the way to promote the establishment of the first provincial ecological protection compensation mechanism for the establishment of the Yellow River Basin. Give a special reward of 200 million yuan and promote Shandong in the country.

What's more worth mentioning is that Shandong not only took the lead in establishing the horizontal ecological compensation of the Inter -Provincial Yellow River Basin in the country, but also expanded this reform experience in September 2021, and took the lead in realizing the full coverage of the horizontal ecological compensation of the county watershed across the country across the country. Essence

As of the end of May 2022, Shandong Province's 2021 county -county ecological compensation funds were completed in full, and a total of 324 million yuan in horizontal ecological compensation funds were paid. Among them, the downstream compensation upstream is 217 million yuan, and the upstream compensation is 107 million yuan, and the compensation amount exceeds the compensation amount.

Is there any next round?

With the successful conclusion of the "gambling" of the first round of the Yellow River ecology in the two provinces, what is the progress of the "gambling" renewal?

On July 12, the Qilu Evening News · Qilu Yitian reporter and the Dahe Newspaper · Yu video reporter learned from the Henan Provincial Department of Ecological Environment: With the success of the first round of the Yellow River ecology of the two provinces, Henan Province is actively actively actively actively Promote the renewal of the next round of agreement with Shandong Province.

At present, the significant results of Lu Yu's "gambling" also allowed Henan, Shandong and other provinces to actively carry out joint cooperation between upstream and downstream provinces to jointly focus on great protection and coordinate the promotion of great governance.

It is understood that Henan has completed the signing of the "Agreement on the Union and Control Framework Agreement of Sudden Water Pollution Incident Anti -Pollution Incident Anti -Pollution Incident" with the Yellow River Basin, such as Shaanxi, Shanxi, Shandong and other provinces. The Yellow River Basin Provincial Inter -Provincial Ecological Protection Compensation Agreement.

This means that the scope of "gambling" in Henan and Shandong has further expanded, and Shanxi and Shaanxi will soon join the "gambling game".

During the recent interview, the person in charge of the Shandong Provincial Department of Finance also said that in the next step, Shandong Province will continue to strengthen communication with Henan Province, revise and improve the content of the agreement, gradually expand the scope of compensation, more prominent improvement, and renew the compensation agreement between the two provinces to renew the visa Work continues to promote ecological protection and high -quality development of the Yellow River Basin.

"Gambling" provides a template for the governance of the Greater River Basin

my country is vast. Many large rivers and rivers flow through many provinces and cities. Different regions in the basin often have a large gap in economic development, and the distribution of ecological resources is usually uneven. The successful practice of the first provincial river basin in the Shandong and Henan Yellow River Basin, establish a long -term management mechanism for "clear responsibility, cooperation and co -governance" along the yellow and along the Yangtze River provinces, and use "protectors to benefit, pay beneficiaries". The method of achieving joint protection and coordinating the governance provides a template.

Before Lu Yu's "gambling" Yellow River water quality, other water waters in my country also had similar explorations. for example:

From 2012 to 2014, 2015-2017, 2018-2020, Zhejiang and Anhui provinces continued three rounds of pilots to achieve fruitful results. The road of promoting the common prosperity is the premise of ecological environmental protection, with green development as the path, the goal of governance and win -win results, and the "Xin'anjiang model" of cross -provincial river basin ecological compensation for the construction of the system and mechanism. This is the first nationwide ecological compensation agreement in the provincial river basin.

In 2021, the three provinces of Yunnan, Guizhou, and Sichuan used the "joint decision+regulations" to solve the problems of co -establishment and co -governance and jointly protect the Chishui River Basin. China ’s first local basin co -legislation. The implementation of the "Joint Decision+Regulations" in the protection of the Chishui River Basin will provide strong rule of law for protecting the Chishui River Qingshui and Green Bank.

"Henan and Shandong Yellow River Basin's first Provincial Basin's horizontal ecological protection compensation agreement is both a successful case and a template that can be replicated. Dahu, the sea, etc., including the large areas of flowing water, Song Xiangqing, deputy dean of the Government Management Research Institute of Beijing Normal University and director of the Industrial Economic Research Center. He suggested to summarize the experience of co -governance of the Yellow River in the Yulu and Lu, establish a cross -rivers and lake inter -lake provincial provincial collaboration mechanism, and formulate a contract -sharing system for contracting, marketization and long -term natural environment. The transformation from policy to practical practice, from symbolic to performance and reward and punishment. In the end, on the basis of absorbing relevant experiences and practices, the parties to the basin governance are adapt to local conditions and adapt to things to achieve diversified co -governance and win -win in the field of ecological protection.
