    Case 1: A case of falsification of environmental monitoring data by a third-party monitoring agency in Chongqing Case 1: A case of falsification of environmental monitoring data by a third-party monitoring agency in Chongqing According to the "Regarding Strengthening the Supervision and Management of Ecological Environmental Monitoring Organizations" issued by the Ministry of Ecology and Environment and the State Administration of Market Supervision In the spirit of the “Notice”, the Chongqing Municipal Bureau of Eco-Environment and the Chongqing Municipal Market Supervision Bureau jointly carried out the supervision, inspection and proficiency testing of the ecological environment monitoring agency, according to the "Environmental Monitoring Data Falsification Judgment and Handling Measures" issued by the former Ministry of Environmental Protection, combined with During the on-site inspection, the inspection team found that some of the original monitoring data archives filed by an environmental protection company in Chongqing were suspected of falsification.
    For this reason, the Chongqing Municipal Ecological Environment Bureau assigned the Chongqing Municipal Environmental Administrative Law Enforcement Corps to investigate and deal with it.
    In March 2019, the Chongqing Municipal Environmental Administrative Law Enforcement Corps, together with relevant offices of the Municipal Ecological Environment Bureau, the Nan'an District Environmental Administrative Law Enforcement Detachment, and the Municipal Public Security Bureau’s Environmental Safety Protection Corps, conducted a joint investigation on the company and found that the company was commissioned by a county water authority , On May 22 and 23, 2018, sampling and monitoring of wastewater discharged from 26 local sewage treatment plants.

    The Environmental Monitoring Agency of Changzhou City has deployed encrypted sites for manual monitoring, collected more than 1,260 samples, conducted continuous and repeated sampling of main tributaries, branches, and sections, and moved testing equipment and instruments to the site, and set up temporary laboratories to achieve immediate collection.
    Measure now.
    Four new automatic monitoring stations for total phosphorus water quality will be built in Xili Caohe Tianjing Bridge, Jiangzhuang Bridge, Huadu Bridge and Xiyangshu Bridge, and the 5 automatic water quality monitoring stations of Anqiao, Dongjian, Daixi, Fenzhuang and Zhongxi have been built.
    The monitoring stations constitute a rigorous water quality monitoring network.
    The Changzhou City Department of Ecological Environment conducted analysis and judgment based on the investigation and multiple rounds of monitoring data, and discovered the suspicious points and regularities of abnormal fluctuations in total phosphorus, which were preliminarily determined to be caused by ships dumping pollutants.
