This is also China's first natural gas automotive industry management regulations.
The Chongqing Municipal Science and Technology Commission introduced that the "Clean Vehicle Natural Gas Vehicle Safety Management Measures" took three years to draw up and formulate, and after several revisions and expert verifications, three written opinions were solicited from the relevant departments, and the proposed reasonable opinions were revised and improved. Under the guidance and supervision of the Chongqing Municipal Government's Legal Affairs Office, three legislative demonstration meetings were held successively to perfect the approach. Finally, the Chongqing Municipal Government passed the review and will formally promulgate and implement it on July 1, 2008.
The Chongqing Science and Technology Commission stated that natural gas vehicles are emerging green industries. Until now, there have been no relevant laws and regulations in the country. In recent years, there has been a law enforcement vacuum in the management of natural gas vehicles. For example, the conversion and maintenance of natural gas vehicles have no law enforcement bodies, and some natural gas vehicles and gas Bottles and other related parts have been used for many years and have reached a high incidence of accidents, and there are significant safety risks. Therefore, it is imperative to regulate the management of natural gas vehicles, stations, and bottles through legislation and guide the sustainable, healthy and stable development of the natural gas auto industry. The measures promulgated by Chongqing are the first laws and regulations for the management of the natural gas auto industry in the country. It is a landmark for the strengthening of the management of the natural gas auto industry in Chongqing and for the promotion and promotion of the safety and regulatory management of the natural gas industry in China.
