Brief
Introduction
I. Main Contents
This chapter
contains information that reflects natural resource conditions and the development
of environment protection in
Data on natural conditions cover land area, mountain ranges, rivers,
ocean and meteorological phenomena.
Data on natural resources cover use of land, water resources,
forest resources, mineral resources and meteorological phenomena.
The development of
environment protection mainly include water supply and utilization, discharge
and treatment of industrial and other waste water; urban air quality, emission
and treatment of waste gas; production, treatment and utilization of industrial
solid wastes, collection and disposal of consumption wastes in cities; national
monitoring of road traffic noise and urban environmental noise in key
cities; afforestation, grassland construction and natural
protection; incidences of geological, seismic, marine and forest disasters, environmental
emergency investment in environment pollution treatment, etc.
II. Sources
of Data
Data on natural conditions are compiled by the Department of
Comprehensive Statistics of the National Bureau of Statistics using relevant
historical data.
Data on meteorological phenomena, mineral and water resources, collection and disposal
of urban consumption wastes, use of land, forest resources, grassland
construction marine disasters, etc. are provided respectively by National
Meteorological Administration, Ministry of Land and Resources, Ministry of
Water Resources, Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development, State
Forestry Administration, Ministry of Agriculture and State Oceanic
Administration.
Data on
environmental pollution and treatment, pollutants from consumption, acoustic
environment and on investment in the treatment of industrial pollution are provided
by the Ministry of Environmental Protection.
III.
Scope of Statistics and Methods of Survey
1) Scope of
statistics: industrial enterprises, urban living and other urban units which
discharge pollutants.
2) Survey methods
for discharge and treatment of industrial pollutants: comprehensive survey is
conducted on all key industrial enterprises, while overall estimation is
carried out for non-key enterprises. Data on discharge of pollutants of key and
non-key enterprises make up the total discharge of the region.
Data
on pollution from consumption and other sources are estimated using relevant
statistics and technical parameters.
