Abstract

The newly revised Law of the People’s Republic of China on Prevention and Control of Water Pollution is crucial for pollution prevention and control in China. In this paper, we first review the achievements of the law in eight aspects since its implementation on January 1, 2018. Subsequently, we analyze the issues in implementing the law from four perspectives: (1) water environment management system and mechanism, (2) supervision over water pollution law enforcement, (3) drinking water source protection and groundwater pollution prevention, and (4) water pollution prevention and control. Accordingly, four countermeasures are proposed from the aspects of management system, law enforcement capabilities, water source protection, and pollution prevention. Specifically, efforts should be put into coordinated watershed management, river chief system perfection, and water quality improvement, thus to promote the up-to-standard discharge of industrial wastewater, pollutant interception and treatment of municipal pipe networks, recycling of municipal activated sludge, low-carbon and economical treatment of rural sewage, and rural non-point source pollution prevention.

中国水污染防治法综合评价

新修订的《中华人民共和国水污染防治法》对中国的污染防治至关重要。本文首先从八个方面回顾了该法自2018年1月1日实施以来取得的成就。随后，从水环境管理体制机制、水污染执法监督、饮用水源保护与地下水污染防治、水污染防治四个方面分析了《水污染防治法》实施中存在的问题。据此，从管理体制、执法能力、水源保护、污染防治等方面提出了四项对策。从流域协调管理、河长制度完善、水质改善等方面着手，促进工业废水达标排放、市政管网污染物截流处理、城市活性污泥资源化利用、农村污水低碳经济处理和农村面源污染防治。
