Type of crime should not be a mystery sewage pollution 

 

China Environmental News: June 6, Jingjiang City, Jiangsu Province, after a pollution incident in the past nearly a month, Jingjiang City Environmental Protection Bureau said: occurred in May 9th of water pollutants is indeed "dimethyl disulfide." . Previously Jiangsu Province Environmental Protection Bureau has also announced, the cause of water pollution in Jingjiang, basically identified crime type discharge or dump waste illegally behavior, but sources still a mystery. Jiangsu Province Environmental Protection Bureau, said "the event has been transferred to the police detective work," but it was the police department's denial, "So far, we have not received any news." 

 

Speaking from the emotional people, all dumping of pollutants to the water source can be said to be criminal behavior. Moreover, last year introduced two high environmental criminal cases in the judicial interpretation of environmental law to incriminate lowering the threshold, the more stringent standard punishment. Judicial interpretation for the first time defined the 14 "serious pollution of the environment," the scope and recognized standards, discharge, dumping and disposal of radioactive wastes, wastes containing infectious pathogens, toxic substances, hazardous substances, including heavy metals, persistent organic pollutants , constitutes the crime of serious environmental pollution. These standards to control water pollution incident is a crime Jingjiang is basically a virtual certainty. Occurred in May of Jingjiang pollution incident, resulting in suspension of the city's water supply, people have to go to the supermarket panic rush under water, while not directly cause the death of people, but they have caused the adverse impact in terms of non-small-incrimination. 

 

The problem comes, since it is a crime, why commit crimes a month, not able to bring perpetrators to justice? Objectively speaking, the Yangtze River water pollution incidents frequently, is not accidental. The country more than 20,000 chemical companies, there are nearly ten thousand in the Yangtze River. Data of the Yangtze River Water Resources Protection Bureau show that in 2010 the Yangtze River reached 33.9 billion tons of emissions. But even many suspect, even if the local environmental protection department said, long Jiang Jingjiang section of river is more complex, dense river network, so that the perpetrators go unpunished month also justified. Face such a major pollution incident, the environmental protection department of force alone can not break, why not be unified local government conduct a thorough investigation, why not take the initiative to the public security department intervention necessary? The current situation is, the local environmental protection department investigation released slowly, the hanging of the month after the public appetite, it tells you what pollutants, sources tell you a mystery, said detective work transferred to the police, the public security authorities said that did not receive any messages. To receive a message to file, in order to find those who pour pollutants it? The key is to have a month later, still find it? 

 

After Jingjiang water pollution incident occurred on May 9, there is directed at users around the upstream chemical industry and sewage are Taixing Chemical Park is illegal. In fact, there are many Taixing Chemical Park Production and Demand "dimethyl disulfide," compounds of the enterprise, and basically built along the river. In the case of suspected users can probably determine the scope of our government still could not give an answer, it is difficult to make people satisfied.
