Excellent little farmer

The road construction issue makes me really feel that I have made some mistakes. It is precisely because I focused on some issues that I thought were more important and ignored these issues related to the needs of the people that this led to these grievances simmering for too long. Finally, through such an opportunity to vent, it is not too late to make amends. Coming up with a remedial plan as soon as possible is enough to show the importance of the county party committee and county government.

"County Magistrate Yaowen, don't worry too much. This kind of thing will continue to increase with the development of the economy in the future. I have experienced a lot of this kind of thing in Yuzhou. With the development of our mausoleum, the urbanization process As the pace continues to accelerate, problems such as land acquisition and demolition, environmental pollution, laid-off and bankruptcies, rural-to-non-subsistence conversion, and other issues will continue to emerge.

The period of social transformation is inherently a period full of contradictions and conflicts. How to develop the economy while maintaining social stability is an important indicator that tests the leadership skills and governance capabilities of the main leaders of a local party and government. "

Tang Yaowen and I have gradually adapted to the relationship between them. The age gap has gradually disappeared with the transformation and adaptation of the roles. Tang Yaowen has also naturally and calmly integrated into the role of county magistrate. , and I also consider issues and handle relationships more rationally from the perspective of the county party committee secretary.

Tang Yaowen sighed and said: "But Secretary Ye, I think the environmental protection and pollution control issues raised by the villagers are indeed worth paying attention to. I contacted the college student. He majored in chemical engineering at Jiangzhou University and was very interested in manufacturing. The large amount of industrial wastewater and chromium pollution produced in the tanning of leather in the leather industry also taught me a good lesson. Later I asked the comrades in charge of this aspect in the environmental protection department, and they basically admitted that what the college student said was true. The development of the leather industry will inevitably bring environmental pollution, which is quite difficult to control and the environmental protection costs are very high."

While I was listening to Tang Yaowen's lament, I was also thinking about how to exchange opinions with Tang Yaowen on this issue and form a unified understanding. Otherwise, the tanning industry will bring a lot of trouble to the development of Lingtai in the future.

Although I have never supported the development of the tanning industry in Lingtai, I have to admit that with the current good conditions in Lingtai County, it can be said that it has unique advantages in developing the tanning industry. If the Lingtai County Party Committee and County Government are concerned about environmental protection, It is an unwise move to kill the tanning industry due to the problem. No matter from any angle, the label of wasting food due to choking will definitely be stuck on one's head for the rest of his life.

Moreover, the introduction of these four companies was determined based on the opinions of the Standing Committee when Li Yongcang was in power, and investment agreements were signed. It is impossible to overturn it now. In other words, what needs to be considered at present is how to convert this Good industrial planning means maximizing production efficiency and minimizing pollution control.

I believe that as Lingtai further expands its investment promotion, there are already four tanning companies of a certain scale in this tanning industrial park, and the two tanning companies that are about to be negotiated will soon enter Lingtai. The general trend of the tanning industry is also irreversible. How to guide this industry to develop in an efficient and environmentally friendly direction is an issue for the Lingtai County Party Committee and County Government to consider.

In my opinion, this is not a matter for the party committee and government. I am afraid that in the next three, five or even ten years, the environmental protection issues in the tanning industry will trouble Lingtai. Rather than having a headache at that time, it is better to deal with it now. Plan well and establish standards first, so that the tanning industry that enters this park in the future will have to abide by the developed development guidelines.

I don’t think I can stay in Lingtai for how long, one year or two years. I don’t know. With Tang Yaowen’s current performance, if it lasts longer, County Magistrate Tang may take over as secretary. If I stay in Lingtai, I don’t know. If Taiwan's stay is too short, then the municipal committee may consider someone else to take over.

But no matter what, Tang Yaowen, who is familiar with the situation, will have considerable say in the future economic development of Lingtai. It is necessary to allow Tang Yaowen to accept his own views and ideas and determine a correct idea for the development of Lingtai in the next few years.

"County Chief Yaowen, the environmental protection issues in the tanning industry are nothing new. It can be said that even in places with higher environmental protection requirements such as Europe, the pollution problem of the tanning industry has not been solved. Therefore, the tanning industry, especially The primary tanning industry will gradually shift from developed countries to developing countries. Since developing countries, including our country, are in the stage of vigorous economic development, their desire for economic development has made us have some limitations in environmental protection standards. Insufficient confidence, or in other words, although the standards have been formulated, the local government is considering developing the economy, but it is not strong enough in implementation to avoid restricting economic development. This situation does not only exist in the tanning industry, but also in other industries. exist."

Tang Yaowen nodded. When he was the deputy director of the Propaganda Department of the Municipal Party Committee, he was in charge of the news and publicity department. The city's media had tracked and reported on the pollution problem of the papermaking industry in Caoji County the year before last. The information they had was quite detailed and the pollution situation was shocking. .

Tang Yaowen had also seen those photos at the time. The situation was indeed quite serious. People from Xiaowangzhuang Town in Caoji County also repeatedly visited the county government. However, although the interview report was revised several times, it was eventually shot. The reporters also Quite speechless.

"Some people believe that economic development will inevitably come at the expense of the environment. I think this issue should be viewed in two. If this kind of pollution that damages the environment is irreversible and cannot be repaired in the future, then We must not use the happiness of future generations to whitewash our current political achievements. If certain pollution can be controlled and repaired, then we should also take precautions, intervene in advance, and limit the impact of these problems to a certain extent as much as possible. , within the acceptable range.”

Tang Yaowen nodded thoughtfully. My views are also representative to a certain extent. It is neither like what he said that some people advocate that development requires a certain price for environmental protection, nor is it like the other extreme view, which is to overemphasize environmental protection. The power of one-vote veto cannot give a green light as long as it involves pollution issues. Of course, the latter is only a theoretical viewpoint. In practice, the former viewpoint basically occupies the absolute mainstream.

There are many people who hold my view, but it is difficult for them to play a role in major issues. Government officials in a place all focus on GDP data, and they can set restrictions on an industry that plays a decisive role in the development of a place because of environmental protection. Tang Yaowen has never seen or heard of the leader.

"The tanning industry in our county is also at a dilemma. The masses are opposed because of pollution problems, but economic development requires it. How to resolve this contradiction, I think the county may have to work hard on this issue."

I looked far-reaching and said slowly: "The pollution problem in the tanning industry is ultimately due to the insufficient scale of the industry and the huge investment in pollution control facilities. Judging from the four tanning companies currently entering the park, even if they are built together according to my original idea These four companies cannot afford a treatment plant that handles wastewater, liquid waste and sludge containing heavy metals. I specifically consulted on this issue when I went to Beijing this time. Even if the county can support this treatment plant with reduced or reduced supporting facilities. , the funding gap is still quite large.”

"Secretary Ye, what do you mean...?" Tang Yaowen asked with a frown.

"As soon as possible, we are negotiating for the two tanning companies to enter the park. In addition, the county will find ways to loan or invest to build a modern standard sewage and sewage treatment plant, which can not only treat sewage and sewage in the industrial park, but also It can treat domestic sewage." I said flatly.

"How much investment does this factory need?" Tang Yaowen was shocked. According to what I described, this enterprise will cost a lot.

"It's estimated to be at least 30 to 50 million." I glanced at Tang Yaowen calmly. Any county magistrate would faint if he heard this number.

Sure enough, Tang Yaowen opened his mouth and gasped, "Thirty to fifty million?" So far, no company has invested more than 30 million yuan in Lingtai at one time. I actually said that building a sewage treatment plant would cost 30 to 50 million yuan. And judging from his tone, it means that the county government must take the lead. , this is too much!

"Secretary Ye, I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Tanneries should be responsible for pollution caused by tanneries. How can our government take the main responsibility? If we help coordinate land use or provide some supporting conditions and policies, then that's okay. Pretty much, the county’s finances simply cannot support such a large public welfare project.”

Tang Yaowen shook his head. On this issue, my views can no longer be described as novel and advanced. They are radical and over-the-top. As the county magistrate, he cannot agree with this view, and he believes that even if I am the leader of the county Although it has a high prestige, it may be difficult to gain support from other members of the Standing Committee.
