Major steelmaking districts in China's Hebei province plan to slash output ...
SHANGHAI/BEIJING - Major steelmaking districts in China’s Hebei province plan to slash output in the last week of September to improve air quality ahead of National Day celebrations next week, documents reviewed by Reuters show.
The output curbs coincide with the celebrations of the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People’s Republic of China in Beijing. Industrial firms in the province of Hebei, which surrounds the capital, are under pressure to try to prevent emissions from drifting across the city as ceremonies get underway.
Three local government notices reviewed by Reuters do not mention National Day specifically, saying only that Hebei faces a sustained period of “unfavorable” weather that makes it harder to disperse smog, triggering more stringent industry curbs starting from Sunday.
