Chinese Authorities are increasingly shifting their focus from permitting of industrial facilities to ensuring operational compliance. In the last 12 months, over 30,000 violations were issued under the new Environmental Protection Law, with over 6,500 industrial facilities being ordered to suspend or shutdown operations, resulting in business interruption and supply chain disruption.

Across the country, environmental regulators have drawn up “Supervision Lists for Key Polluting Enterprises” and published these online. In Shanghai alone, over 1,000 companies were named as “Key Polluting Enterprises” in January 2018. Half of these companies are either foreign JVs or wholly owned foreign enterprises. These facilities can expect increased inspections and enforcement actions in 2018.

Join AmCham Shanghai's Environmental Committee on Tuesday, April 17 from 10:00am-12:00pm, to hear our industry experts explain how the Chinese government' s crackdown on environmental compliance is likely to play out over 2018, present a new risk prevention and early warning approach, and provide solutions to help companies foresee and minimize impacts on their business and supply chains.
