en.Wedoany.com Reported - Recently, the Xijiang River Bureau of Guangdong Province, together with the Yunfu Municipal Water Affairs Bureau, conducted a special inspection at the Chenshe river sand mining area in the Xinxing River. The purpose of this inspection was to implement the management responsibilities for river sand mining, standardize the mining order, and ensure the safety of the river ecosystem and flood discharge. The inspection team, led by the Xijiang River Bureau with cooperation from local water affairs departments, carried out an on-site examination of the mining area.

The inspection team went deep into the mineable area site and meticulously reviewed documents such as mining area approval documents, quadruple forms, supervision logs, and sand mining ledgers. During the on-site inspection phase, staff focused on verifying the compliance of mining operation tools, the setting of mining scope markers, the public display of sand mining notice boards, and the operation and maintenance of monitoring equipment. In response to issues discovered during the inspection, such as non-standard notice boards and measurements not verified by a third party, the inspection team demanded immediate rectification by the mining area.

To further standardize sand mining management, the inspection team put forward three requirements. First, strengthen the implementation of responsibilities by strictly enforcing on-site supervision and supervisory duty, ensuring meticulous investigation and rigorous control. Second, strictly adhere to the no-mining red line, rigorously enforcing the prohibition on mining from 7 PM to 7 AM the following day, prohibiting operations beyond the approved mining elevation and scope, and standardizing the measurement and recording of sand extraction volumes. Finally, the inspection team emphasized maintaining a firm safety baseline, strengthening dynamic monitoring of river embankments during the mining period, and coordinating the safety of river flood control, water supply, and water engineering projects.

Relevant officials from the Yunfu Municipal Water Affairs Bureau and the Xinxing County Water Affairs Bureau participated in this inspection. The subsequent rectification status of the river sand mining area will be followed up and supervised by the local water affairs department.
