Nine departments issued guidance on promoting rural domestic sewage treatment

The "Opinions" propose that by 2020, in areas with basic and favorable conditions such as the eastern region and the suburbs of central and western cities, the rate of rural domestic sewage treatment will be significantly improved, and sewage in villages will flow horizontally and disorderly. Indiscriminate discharge of domestic sewage has been basically eliminated, and an operation and maintenance mechanism has been basically established; in areas with a good foundation and basically the conditions in the central and western regions, the indiscriminate discharge of domestic sewage in rural areas has been effectively controlled and initial results have been achieved; in areas located in remote areas and economically disadvantaged areas, In developed and other areas, the phenomenon of random discharge of domestic sewage in rural areas has been significantly reduced.

The "Opinions" emphasize that it is necessary to "adapt measures to local conditions, respect customs, treat everything, use it first, be close to the place, ecologically cycle, advance in steps, pay equal attention to construction and management, mobilize farmers, The basic idea is to firmly establish and implement the new development concept, starting from the wishes and needs of hundreds of millions of farmers, in accordance with the general requirements of implementing the rural revitalization strategy, and based on the actual situation of our country's rural areas, in order to reduce sewage and classify it locally. Guided by treatment and recycling, we will strengthen overall planning, highlight key areas, select appropriate models, improve the standard system, and strengthen management and protection mechanisms. We will do well and achieve long-term results, and we will embark on a path of rural domestic sewage treatment with Chinese characteristics.

The "Opinions" clarified the key tasks of solidly promoting eight aspects of rural domestic sewage treatment.

First, comprehensively understand the current situation. Investigate the total amount and proportion of rural domestic sewage, disorderly discharge of village sewage, and water pollution, sort out the number, layout, and operation of existing treatment facilities, and analyze the surrounding environment of the village, especially the ecological capacity of the water environment. .

The second is to scientifically prepare action plans. Fully consider the existing work foundation and reasonably determine the target tasks, governance methods, regional layout, construction timing, funding guarantee, etc.

The third is to choose the technical model rationally. A construction model and treatment process that combines pollution control with resource utilization, engineering measures with ecological measures, and concentration with decentralization are adopted according to local conditions.

The fourth is to promote the recycling of water for production and living. Explore the combination of high-standard farmland construction, farmland water conservancy construction and rural domestic sewage treatment, unified planning and integrated design, and achieve a virtuous cycle of agricultural and rural water resources on the premise of ensuring agricultural water safety.

The fifth is to speed up the formulation and revision of standards. According to the zoning and classification, combining leniency and severityIn accordance with the principles of giving priority to reuse, focusing on effectiveness, and facilitating supervision, we must promptly formulate and revise the discharge standards for rural domestic sewage treatment in this region.

Sixth, improve the construction and management and protection mechanism. Adhere to the principle of user-oriented, pay equal attention to construction and management, and take overall consideration of project construction and operation and maintenance during the planning and design stage to achieve simultaneous design, construction, and implementation.

Seventh, make overall plans to promote the rural toilet revolution. Rural domestic sewage treatment and toilet revolution shall be considered in an overall manner, and areas with conditions shall be promoted in an integrated manner, designed simultaneously, constructed simultaneously, and operated simultaneously.

The eighth is to promote the treatment of black and smelly water bodies in rural areas. In accordance with the ideas of hierarchical management, classified treatment, and phased advancement, comprehensive measures such as source control and interception, garbage cleaning, silt dredging, and water purification are adopted to restore the water ecology.
