Beijing announces special rules for snow clearing during epidemic
The Beijing government announced a special snow clearing requirement during the COVID-19 epidemic, stating snow piles and drifts should not be transported outside of communities which are under control at present.
During the recent COVID-19 outbreak, several residential communities where confirmed cases were reported in Beijing's Fengtai and Changping districts were under control measures. The residents are required to self-quarantine at home. Some students and teachers in Chaoyang district are under centralized quarantine after a confirmed student case was reported.
According to the requirement, snow in those places should be stored and dealt with in the area.
