Huang Biao, Secretary of the Panyu District Party Committee, pointed out in his speech that the construction of Qiaonan Water Purification Plant and Central Water Purification Plant (Phase II) is the key task of Panyu District to implement the rectification of the central ecological and environmental protection inspectors and treat both the symptoms and the root causes, and promote water control for three years. As of the end of August this year, the progress of the three-year water control task has reached 89.6%, 1,723 kilometers of sewage transmission pipe network has been built, 128 villages and residential areas have been renovated for rain and sewage diversion, and the comprehensive progress of 4 new (expanded) water purification plants has reached 80.4%.
Huang Biao stressed that ecological construction is half 90 miles away, and we still need to carry the pressure forward, take into account the water environment, water ecology, water resources, and water security, continue to deepen the "four treatments" mechanism of pollution and waterlogging, waterfront co-governance, collaborative good governance, and both symptomatic and root causes, and fight the battle to defend the blue sky, clear water, and pure land, and create a production and living environment with industry priority, traffic optimization, high-quality service, and superior ecology, so as to leave green waters, green mountains and nostalgia for the 4 million people and future generations of Panyu, and strive to build Panyu into the main battlefield of the real economy. It is a carrier of new quality productivity, a relay hub for southward expansion and eastward expansion, a high-quality living circle in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and a cradle of Lingnan cultural heritage.
