5.
Implement public interviews.
According to the supervision results, the cities where the environmental violations of industrial enterprises are concentrated, the overall air pollution prevention and control work is not well promoted, the implementation of responsibilities is not in place, and the air pollution problem is very prominent, conduct listed supervision or public interviews.

6.
Seriously quantify accountability.
For cities with serious air pollution, frequent heavy pollution weather, and poor environmental quality improvement, or even worsening, the central environmental protection special inspection will be carried out in a timely manner.
Starting from the second stage, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment will coordinate and formulate quantitative accountability measures for various special actions in the fight against pollution, improve detailed rules, and strictly implement them.

In this round of inspections, we will look back in conjunction with environmental protection inspectors, and will crack down on formalism and bureaucracy in the field of ecological and environmental protection, such as rectification, pretend rectification, perfunctory rectification, etc.
, against environmentally illegal companies in various places, ineffective rectification and rectification, and perfunctory rectification.
Lazy governance, lazy governance behaviors, passive response and negligence in rectification and reform of inspections, as well as chaotic supervision, soft supervision, and blind governance issues, have firmly promoted the implementation of the central decision-making and deployment.
