Authorities plan online monitoring of discharge after on-site checks
Data from all major sewage discharge points in the Yangtze River basin are to be shared among environmental authorities using an online monitoring platform to boost pollution controls.
The move comes after the Yangtze River Water Resources Commission and Taihu Lake Basin Authority completed on-site inspections last year at more than 8,800 locations in 887 counties.
