In September 2018, the staffs of PECC found multiple pollution sources during the investigation in Jipai Town, Danyang City, and our staffs immediately reported to Zhenjiang Environmental Protection Bureau and Danyang Environmental Protection Bureau.

On-site report from PECC

Danyang Environmental Protection Bureau attaches great importance to the report from PECC. On September 6th, 2018, Danyang Environmental Protection Bureau gave the active response and immediately set up an investigation team to rush to the scene to investigate and deal with it.

Accepted by Danyang Environmental Protection Bureau

On September 15th, 2018, after a joint investigation by the investigation team, Danyang Environmental Protection Bureau made a written reply about the investigation of special result to PECC. Among them, the three enterprises reported by PECC were ordered to suspend production for rectification and were investigated.

1. Jiangsu Jinsheng Automobile and Motorcycle Exhaust System Co., Ltd.

On September 15th, Danyang Environmental Protection Bureau replied: after on-site investigation, the serious dust accumulation on the wall caused by the reported enterprise is due to the inadequate sealing of the collection pipe and the overflow dust; and because of the large air volume of the fan, part of the water in the water tank is blown out of the box, which generates the rust. The company is ordered to: 1. Immediately stop production for rectification and accept investigation; 2. Clean up the dust on the exterior walls, properly dispose of the rusted iron powder, and improve the dust collection and treatment process.

On September 15th, Danyang Environmental Protection Bureau replied: After on-site investigation, the enterprise is engaged in the production of street lamps, and a large amount of exhaust gas and dust are generated when the cover of street lamp is die-casting and demoulding and spraying the release agent. Jiepai Town Government has taken the following measures: 1. Instruct the enterprise to suspend production for rectification; 2. File a case for investigation of the enterprise.
