Xi Jinping stressed: "We must firmly establish and practice the concept that green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains, and plan for development from the perspective of harmonious coexistence between man and nature." Bearing in mind the entrustment of the General Secretary, Danzhou has thoroughly implemented Xi Jinping's ecological civilization thought, firmly established the concept of "green mountains are golden mountains and silver mountains", and continued to crack down on a series of illegal activities such as sand mining with an iron fist to protect green mountains and rivers. On July 3, the reporter learned from the comprehensive law enforcement detachment of Danzhou Comprehensive Law Enforcement Bureau that as of June 15, 27 cases of illegal sand mining had been filed and investigated, 19 cases had been investigated, and the remaining 8 cases were under investigation and evidence collection.

On the same day, reporters from the comprehensive law enforcement detachment of Danzhou Comprehensive Law Enforcement Bureau noticed that in the most prominent place of the detachment's office, there were statistical tables on the handling of cases. "This is our'battle map ', we will update it in time every month, brighten the clues found, and mark the handling of sand mining cases on the'battle map' at the first time to ensure that the cases can advance in time." Chen Xiang, captain of the Mineral Law Enforcement Brigade of the Comprehensive Law Enforcement Detachment of Danzhou Comprehensive Law Enforcement Bureau, said.

According to Chen Xiang, at present, the ecological cases cracked in Danzhou City show the characteristics of multi-point outbreak and "ant moving". In order to avoid the attack of law enforcement departments, illegal gangs have formed organizations with clear division of labor, including pre-exploration, land contracting, on-site excavation, sand sales, road stalking, etc., which bring a lot of resistance to law enforcement actions. In view of the current situation, our methods and means of handling cases are also changing rapidly. With the help of scientific and technological forces, we use unmanned aerial vehicles to carry out patrol and other law enforcement work. In addition, we also keep close contact with the masses and actively broaden the sources of illegal information. In addition to the 12345 reporting platform of the municipal government, our detachment has also set up a special reporting telephone. Next, we will adhere to the idea of large-scale law enforcement and case handling, crack down on a series of illegal activities such as stealing and mining mineral resources with an iron fist, further standardize the order of mineral resources development in Danzhou, and protect the green mountains and rivers.

It is understood that since this year, the comprehensive law enforcement detachment of Danzhou Comprehensive Law Enforcement Bureau has transferred a public security case, jointly cracked down on one illegal sand mining gang, dispatched 1310 law enforcement officers and 382 law enforcement vehicles, and effectively cracked down on 47 illegal sand mining activities on the spot. 97 illegal sand mining vehicles were seized, 78 sand loading vessels (foam rafts) were destroyed, 8 sand pumping machines were destroyed, 324 square meters of sand mining platforms were dismantled, and about 500 cubic meters of river sand were cleared and backfilled, which formed a powerful deterrent to illegal sand mining activities.
