This year, Jiangsu will study and issue guiding opinions on sewage treatment fees, and improve the sewage treatment fee policy system, which means that the sewage treatment fees formulated by Jiangsu in 2008 will be adjusted this year.
The sewage treatment fee standard in Jiangsu is currently formulated after the Taihu Lake water pollution incident in 2008. The southern part of Jiangsu is implemented in the range of 1.3-1.6 yuan per ton, and the central and northern Jiangsu is between 1 yuan and 1.2 yuan. Nanjing implements It is 1.42 yuan, which has remained unchanged for 7 years. This year, Jiangsu will issue new guidance on sewage treatment fees, which will be divided into three regions: southern Jiangsu, central Jiangsu, and northern Jiangsu, and the standard of sewage treatment fees will be raised appropriately.
At present, the prices of the three tiers of water for residents in Nanjing are 3.1 yuan, 3.81 yuan and 4.52 yuan per ton respectively. For example, in the first water price of 3.1 yuan, in addition to the basic water price (water supply price) of 1.42 yuan, there are three surcharges, namely, the urban public utility surcharge of 6 cents, the sewage treatment fee of 1.42 yuan, and the water resource fee of 0.2 yuan ( Including South-to-North Water Diversion Fund 0.07 yuan).

At present, the first-tier water in Nanjing covers about 95% of households. According to the new national requirements, the first step is to cover 80% of households, while the second step is set to cover 95% of households, which also means that the water consumption of Nanjing’s first and second steps may change. few.
