Xianghe Township and Chunshui Town of Biyang County, due to the large number of mountains, quartz, potassium feldspar, marble deposits are extremely rich, granite reserves are among the best in the province.

At present, Biyang County Stone Development Zone has been built, and hundreds of stone processing enterprises have been gathered. “There are more than 300 sets of sawing and polishing machines and other equipment in the development zone, and the daily production of various types of stone reaches 15,000 square meters”. The largest distribution center for processing, production and sales of North Sesame White Granite series products, the products are radiated all over the country and exported to foreign countries.

However, due to extensive production, backward technology, and inadequate environmental protection facilities, the local people have been suffering from the pollution and have become increasingly fierce.

Controversy "milk water"

Recently, the media came to the stone gathering area of ​​Biyang County in Chunshui Town. On the road to the iron hat Xucun Road, dozens of stone processing enterprises are busy producing, looking to the various factories, processing finished products and The processed waste, as well as the stone to be processed, are all piled up together, and are not as "official storage" as the official said.

According to an insider, "These companies have almost no environmental protection facilities, and the production wastewater is directly discharged outside the factory, and finally flows into the river and enters the reservoir."

In the “Xishan” after the iron cap Xucun, the white sewage flowing out from a stone processing enterprise at the foot of the mountain was transferred into the small reservoir of Biyang County named Xu Laowen through the ditch.

Along the white sewage flow, the media came to the reservoir, and the surface of the reservoir was milky white.

"This reservoir has been completely polluted. There is no living thing in it. It is not so much water, it is like 'milk'. The reservoir flows through the flooded river and finally flows to the Banqiao Reservoir, which is more than ten kilometers away, from the Xu Laowen Reservoir to the Manliuhe Village. There are also dozens of stone processing plants that have been discharged into the sewage," the local villagers said.

It is also known that the Banqiao Reservoir is the source of drinking water for hundreds of thousands of people in the urban areas of Luohe and Zhumadian. As to whether it affects the safety of drinking water, the media has been consulted by many parties and failed.

Previously, the Biyang County Environmental Protection Bureau responded to this by saying that the water quality indicators were in compliance with national standards and there was no pollution.

"If it is pure stone refining, why not precipitate it? Now the water is always white like milk, indicating that the water quality is definitely contaminated." A person familiar with the matter disagreed with the reply.

A masse who worked in a stone factory told the media that “a coolant is used in the processing of stone. This chemical contains mercury and lead, which is very toxic. If the animal drinks such water, it will die. The wastewater containing these chemical materials is doped into the stone refining and directly discharged outside the plant into the river."

The villagers near the Huozhuang Reservoir in Xianghe Township also said that “every time there is heavy rain, when the mine mouth sewage flows into the reservoir, the fish will die, and the white flowers will float on the water surface.” “This is especially serious in the flood season. Last year, because of this, the owner of each mine lost 10,000 yuan to the fish farmers."

Before the media inspection, the Biyang County Government issued instructions for water pollution around the plant in 2010, requiring all wastewater in the plant area to be recycled, not allowed to be discharged, and a rainwater collection pool must be built.

However, two years have passed and the situation has not changed.

At the same time that stone enterprises bring water pollution, dust pollution is also difficult for local people to bear.

The villagers of Chunshui Town Iron Cap Xu said that they live in the dust every day. "The trucks that pull the stone from the nearby mountains are flowing, the dust is flying, and a layer of ash is falling every day. Every morning and evening, you can't open the window and ventilate, and dare not be outdoors. Clothes drying."

What's more, "I have two people in Iron Cap Xu because they work in the factory, inhaling too much dust and suffering from pneumoconiosis. Now I can't do anything. I heard that it is an incurable disease and can only wait for death." The villagers revealed.

In the village of Manliuhe, the media also heard the villagers reflect that under Han and Mazhuang, two people died of pneumoconiosis last year. "Dust pollution is too serious. Although it works there, it can earn hundreds of dollars in a day, but compared with life, money is worth what."

Stacking in the "Time Bomb"

In the local area, the transportation of stone mainly relies on a truck that is called “gunner” by the locals. This type of vehicle has no license plate and no guardrail. It is a scrapped car that the villagers spend tens of thousands of yuan to buy.

"Many of them are scrapped from the army. Some are still painted with camouflage. They are four-wheel drive. They are powerful and suitable for mountain work. In these two towns and towns, there are hundreds of such 'gunners'." .

On the mountain road, the media encountered more than a dozen such "gun cars", and the speed was fast.

Like the resident of the Hexiang Township Government, the “gunners” walked through the downtown area, ignoring the security risks brought to the surrounding.

In the stone processing plant, many liquefied gas cylinders and oxygen cylinders used to make "burning boards" are stacked in the yard without any covering, and are directly exposed to the sun.

It is understood that the cylinders containing compressed gas should be regularly inspected according to the regulations, and the temperature in the warehouse where the cylinders are stored must not exceed 30 degrees Celsius.

However, some of these cylinders have been "rusted" and apparently have been used for a long time. Since the summer, the area has continued to be hot, but these cylinders do not have any "heatstroke prevention and cooling" measures.

According to nearby residents, these liquefied gas cylinders and oxygen cylinders are stacked in the yard all year round, just like "time bombs."

In addition to these potentially dangerous moments endangering personal safety, the most feared workers in the factory are saws for cutting stone. "This kind of saw weighs a lot. Last year, two people in Yangzhuang were killed by this kind of saw. The people in the vicinity know that the last boss lost more than 100,000 yuan to settle the matter. It is really a sweatshop."

Reporting pollution is referred to ulterior motives

The development of the stone industry in Biyang County has been six or seven years. The most intuitive feeling for the ordinary people in the vicinity is that “there is less and less green.” The mountain body “small skin without hair, bruises everywhere”, the water is not as clear as before. sweet".

“Because of the surface mining exposed due to disorderly mining, waste accumulation, geological disasters such as landslides and mudslides are prone to occur during flood seasons. It is hoped that local authorities will increase protection and increase vegetation coverage,” said provincial geologists.

In Huo Zhuang, Xianghe Township, the villager Lao Feng introduced to the media, “There are mountains and waters in this place. The trees on the mountain were very thick, and there are many wild boars, wild sheep and other animals. It is also a good choice to develop tourism in the past. Just like the neighboring Wugang City."

During the visit, the media also heard about a local poem that was circulated in the local area: “There are hundreds of merchants in stone investment, and the health of the people is the price. The mercury in the sewage is hidden in the sewage, and the sewage is smashed. The investment is development, and the environment is sacrificed to make money. The sewage flows to the natural river, and the fish, shrimp, and crabs have nowhere to hide. The cattle and sheep drink the water in the river, and they will die for a long time."

“Xianghe has been known as the “Zhongjia Zhangjiajie in the Central Plains, the Taihang Mountain in the Middle Kingdom”, the Wufeng Mountain in the Tianzhong Taihang Mountain, the Guanshan Mountain in the Longwangzhang, the Acacia and the Dazhai Mountain, as well as the Shitagou and Daluo. Ditch, Xiaolugou, oil road ditch and other quiet valleys."

“The Stone Basin Sword Waterfall and the Shenniu Circle Waterfall are more fascinating and lingering. The river is beautiful, the forest is dense, the mountains are rocky, the cliffs, the wild vegetables, wild flowers, wild fruits, Chinese herbal medicines are all over the mountains, and many wild animals. Perched in. The river like the river is a virgin land that maintains the original ecology." Baidu Encyclopedia defines Elephant River Township, and such Xianghe Township may only remain in the memory of the older generation.

For the above chaos, Biyang County Environmental Protection Bureau replied, "You have been here for only a few days. We have been here for many years. It is clearer than you. If there is no EIA, how can they start production? For reporting pollution Things do not rule out the ulterior motives of individual people."

"The EPA does come often, but they are just coming to eat and take it." A villager in the overflowing river said to the media with anger.

In 2010, when Biyang County responded to public opinion supervision, it said that it had been rectified in various aspects.

“The cultivated land is occupied, the green hills are destroyed, and the environment is polluted. Although the stone industry can indeed drive taxes, but the tax revenue has increased, how much has to feed back our local farmers? This is the clearest government.”

"When the mountain is finally finished, what should we do then? The cost of re-cultivation is several times higher than what we have now." The local people said.

"It is true that we cannot deny the contribution of local government investment promotion to county economic development, but in the face of public concern and criticism, we must also reflect on the materialistic desire of the entire social environment." Some people commented on this.
