Establishment of Investment Implementation Scope of Three Principles

Reporters learned from the Shandong provincial government website on September 4 that the "Regulations on the Management of Chemical Investment Projects in Shandong Province" was officially issued. In order to further strengthen and standardize the management of chemical investment projects, the new construction, expansion, reconstruction and technological transformation projects in Shandong Province in the future should strictly abide by the three principles of advanced nature, safety, environmental protection and concentration. In principle, they should be in the chemical industry parks, specialized chemical industry parks and industrial parks recognized by the provincial government. Implement in key monitoring points.

Chemical industry in chemical investment projects includes 25 major categories of petroleum, coal and other fuel processing industries in National Economic Industry Classification (GB/T4754-2017), including 2524 coal products manufacturing, 2530 nuclear fuel processing and 2542 biomass dense briquette fuel processing, 26 major categories of chemical raw materials and chemicals. Manufacturing (excluding the manufacture of 2671 explosives and pyrotechnic products) and 291 medium rubber products. Among them, the advanced principle means that chemical investment projects should strictly abide by relevant laws and regulations and conform to the national industrial policy. We will support the development of incentive projects, strictly control restrictive projects and strictly prohibit the elimination of projects. The principle of safety and environmental protection refers to that chemical investment projects should do a good job of environmental impact assessment and safety production evaluation according to the requirements of relevant regulations, so as to ensure that safety and environmental protection facilities in investment projects are designed, constructed and put into operation at the same time as the main projects. The principle of intensive agglomeration requires all parts of the province to actively promote the entry of chemical enterprises into the park, encourage upstream and downstream collaboration among enterprises, build a chain to strengthen the chain, and promote enterprise restructuring and capacity integration.

Shandong has made it clear that chemical investment projects should be implemented in the chemical industry parks, specialized chemical industry parks and key monitoring points identified by the provincial government in principle, and conform to the relevant planning of territorial space planning and industrial development planning.

Environmental pollution control and hidden safety hazard control projects can be implemented on site in the original plant without restriction of investment amount;

Extraction of bromine from seawater or brine, new large-scale metallurgical projects supporting coking and gas making, chlorine and hydrogen consumption projects in chlor-alkali enterprises can be built on site or with existing enterprises.

2625 Organic and Microbial Fertilizer Manufacturing, 2682 Cosmetics Manufacturing, 291 Classified Rubber Products Industry (except 2911 Tire Manufacturing), and Chemical Investment Projects with EIA Classified Management List as Report Form and Registration Form in the List of Environmental Impact Assessment of Construction Projects, unless otherwise stipulated by the State, may be recognized by the provincial government. The designated chemical industry parks, specialized chemical industry parks and key monitoring points shall be implemented outside the designated chemical industry parks.

New chemical projects producing hazardous chemicals (see the latest edition of Hazardous Chemicals Catalogue for Hazardous Chemicals Details), fixed assets investment in principle not less than 300 million yuan (excluding land costs); listed in the national Catalogue of Guidance for Industrial Structure Adjustment and Catalogue of Guidance for Foreign Investment Industries; encouragement categories and relocation projects It is not subject to the investment limit of 300 million yuan. At the same time, Shandong will strictly restrict the new projects of highly toxic chemicals, so as to realize that the production enterprises of highly toxic chemicals will only decrease but not increase.

In December 2017, the provincial government promulgated the Provisional Provisions for the Management of Chemical Investment Projects in Shandong Province (No. 215 of "Luzheng Office"), which is valid until the end of December. In accordance with the requirements of deepening the reform of "release uniform" and comparing with the above-mentioned Provisional Regulations, Shandong further delegates the authority of examination and approval, clarifies the division of responsibilities among the approval and filing organs at all levels, and implements graded management of chemical projects. New chemical projects involving "two key points and one major" are no longer subject to joint examination at all levels, thus optimizing the flow of management. Cheng will speed up the implementation of the project.

Specifically, the provincial government approval and record-keeping organs are responsible for approving new oil refining projects and expanding primary oil refining projects, new ethylene, p-xylene (PX) and diphenylmethane diisocyanate (MDI) projects, and new coal-to-olefins and new coal-to-coal pairs included in relevant national approved plans. Xylene (PX) project and new coal-to-methanol project with annual output of more than 1 million tons.

The municipal government authorizing and filing organs shall be responsible for the approval or filing of new, expanded and increased production capacity renovation and technical renovation of hazardous chemicals projects beyond provincial authority.

County (city, district) governments approve and record organs are responsible for the record-keeping of renovation and technological renovation of hazardous chemicals projects without additional capacity and investment projects in non-hazardous chemicals chemical industry.

This regulation is valid for 3 years, and the Notice of the General Office of the People's Government of Shandong Province on the Issuance of Provisional Provisions for the Management of Chemical Investment Projects in Shandong Province (No. 215 of Luzheng Office, 2017) shall be abolished at the same time. The approval or filing of chemical investment projects for storage, operation and transportation shall be handled in accordance with the authority and procedures for approval and filing prior to the implementation of the special action for the transformation and upgrading of production safety in the chemical industry of the whole province. Where the State has other relevant provisions, such provisions shall prevail.
