One month after the "321" explosion accident in Xiangshui, Jiangsu, the improvement and improvement plan for the chemical industry in Jiangsu Province was promulgated.

One month after the "321" explosion accident in Xiangshui, Jiangsu, the improvement and improvement plan for the chemical industry in Jiangsu Province was promulgated.

A few days ago, the General Office of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee issued the "Jiangsu Province Chemical Industry Safety and Environmental Protection Improvement Plan" (hereinafter referred to as the "Plan"), proposing that the province should substantially reduce the number of chemical companies in the riverside area and cancel some chemical parks.

Jiangsu Province is a major producer of China's chemical industry, especially pesticides, dyes, and petrochemicals.

In terms of reducing the number of chemical companies, chemical companies in riverside areas, environmentally sensitive areas, and chemical companies below the designated size have become the focus of rectification.

Significantly reduce the number of enterprises and cancel the positioning of some chemical parks

Compared with the previous draft of opinions, the "Plan" did not put forward the goal of "reducing the number of chemical production enterprises in the province to 2,000 by the end of 2020", but it still clarified the requirements for chemical companies to "retreat from the city and enter the park".

The "Plan" proposes that all chemical production enterprises within 1 km on both sides of the Yangtze River and outside the chemical park will withdraw or relocate in principle by the end of 2020.

In addition, the "Plan" requires that the number of chemical production companies below the designated size be reduced.

On the other hand, the "Plan" clarifies the requirements for the division of chemical parks, and emphasizes that the number of chemical parks (concentration areas) will be reduced.
It did not mention the "reduction of chemical parks to about 20" that appeared in the draft opinion.

At present, there are 53 chemical parks (chemical concentration areas) in Jiangsu Province.
In the list of the top 30 chemical parks in China in 2018, 7 parks in Jiangsu were on the list, ranking first in the country in terms of number, including 24 in southern Jiangsu, 12 in central Jiangsu, and 17 in northern Jiangsu.

The "Plan" proposes that the whole province of Jiangsu Province will fully carry out the re-evaluation of chemical parks (concentrated areas), and identify those with large-scale production, complete industrial chain, complete infrastructure, and high level of comprehensive management as chemical parks; Certain industrial agglomeration effects, higher industrial levels, better management foundations but not clear industrial chains are identified as chemical concentrated areas; small scale, low industrial relevance, imperfect infrastructure, prominent safety and environmental issues, and densely distributed surrounding sensitive targets Cancel the positioning of the chemical park.
In the parks (concentration areas) where the chemical positioning has been cancelled, new chemical projects are strictly prohibited, and the number of existing enterprises is drastically reduced.

At the same time, the "Plan" encourages companies that meet safety and environmental protection standards to move into areas with strong environmental carrying capacity; for a small number of chemical companies with standardized management, advanced technology, high-grade products, and controllable safety and environmental risks, they will be listed by the municipal governments.
It is a key monitoring point for the chemical industry.

To establish an integrated safety information management, the company must improve the environmental impact assessment and safety assessment reports

In terms of safety supervision, on the basis of the draft opinions, the "Plan" proposes to strengthen the ability of informatization supervision and the safety awareness of enterprise personnel.
At the end of 2019, chemical production enterprises should build an information management system that integrates major hazard monitoring information, combustible and toxic gas detection and alarm information, enterprise safety risk zoning information, production personnel on-the-job information, and enterprise production process management information.

In addition, the legal representative of the company and the largest shareholder, technical person in charge, safety person in charge, environmental protection person in charge, and special operations personnel need to participate in the emergency management department, the ecological environment department and its authorized agencies to participate in the practice ability training and assessment, and hold a certificate to work every year.
Receive no less than 16 hours of technical retraining for related positions.
The retraining time for other employees shall not be less than 20 hours per year.
When adjusting jobs in the enterprise or re-starting after leaving the job for more than one year, the targeted safety training shall be carried out again.

Compared with the draft opinion, the "Plan" emphasizes the strict management of hazardous waste disposal, including that chemical companies must accurately and comprehensively evaluate the types, quantities, attributes, and generation, storage, utilization, or disposal of solid waste in the environmental impact assessment report.
At the same time, in the safety assessment report, the safety assessment of solid waste storage, utilization and disposal is carried out, and the facilities and equipment for storage, utilization and disposal of hazardous wastes are designed, constructed or modified in accordance with standards and specifications.
Manufacturers should declare and dispose of waste hazardous chemicals in accordance with relevant management requirements.

The emergency management, ecological environment and transportation departments study and formulate hazardous waste risk assessment and supervision and disposal measures, and implement the entire chain and entire process of supervision and management of the generation, collection, storage, transportation and disposal of hazardous waste.
Districts and cities with heavy chemical supervision tasks should have no less than 20 persons, and key chemical counties should have no less than 10 persons for hazardous chemical safety supervision and law enforcement teams.
All types of production parks (concentration areas) should have separate safety supervision.
Institutions, the ratio of professional supervisory personnel shall not be less than 75% of the in-service personnel.
The Provincial Safety Committee organizes counties (cities, districts) with many chemical companies and heavy supervision tasks to hire relevant professional experts from chemical companies and chemical design units to be permanent.

At the same time, the "Plan" requires increased enforcement penalties and punishments for untrustworthy enterprises that violate safety and environmental protection laws and regulations.
Enterprises that cannot stably meet discharge standards, have incomplete "three wastes" treatment facilities, imperfect supporting facilities, and operate abnormally will suspend production or be ordered to shut down in accordance with the law.
