Xiaoling: Pipeline planning and urban planning should be well connected

People's Daily Beijing, October 28, the 11th meeting of the NPC Standing Committee this morning, the "oil and Gas Pipeline Protection Act (draft)" was considered in groups.　　Xiaoling pointed out that if pipeline planning and urban planning can not be well connected, not only the historical problems still exist, new problems will continue to arise.　　Xiaoling said that the pipeline planning and construction is now a lot of problems, after the pipeline is laid, there are a lot of illegal buildings, and some are not illegal buildings, the original pipe was built away from the building, away from the city, but the city development, to the pipeline near and above the pipeline, which involves the urban planning problem. Xiaoling that the laying of oil and gas pipelines is not only the problem of enterprises, but also related to the national energy supply security issues, as the State Council energy authorities for the national planning, should be higher than all local planning, according to this principle, 12th, 2nd, " The competent department of Urban and Rural planning of the local people's government at or above the county level shall examine whether the pipeline construction plan conforms to the urban and rural planning requirements and incorporate the piping construction plan according to the requirements into the local urban and rural planning. Xiaoling that this can not be done, local urban and rural planning to be subject to the country's macro-planning, because the state to prepare the national pipeline development planning, and pipeline enterprises to build pipelines, but also in accordance with national planning to build, the place to obey the central.　　Otherwise, the place has its own plan, do not follow the national planning, the pipeline can not be built. Xiaoling also noted that the pipeline could not be well maintained because the local government, which had been through the pipeline, had assumed a lot of responsibility, but had not received the corresponding benefits and the financial guarantees paid for the responsibility. In this case, the local government is only responsible, not the necessary financial security, the maintenance of the pipeline is not the responsibility to carry out. Therefore, in her view, in the general provisions, it should be stipulated that according to the responsibilities of local governments, to give certain financial security, or economic benefits to share. Some scholars suggest that it is possible to determine a certain amount of tax in the local government, or according to the length of the maintenance pipeline, or according to the local use of gas, oil and so on.
