Recently, Shaanxi Provincial Department of Land and Resources and Environmental Protection Department jointly issued the Circular on Accelerating the Supply of Quarry Mines for Ensuring the Market of Stone Materials and proposed that the "Preventive Measures for Special Opening of Mountain Quarries" and the Reorganization of Environmental Inspectors should be reserved Construction of stone mines, pay close attention to rectification and reform before the end of the rectification work; strive to meet the requirements by the end of March next year, not less than 50% of retained mines to resume production; the rest of the remaining mines by the end of June next year to resume production.
It is learned that nearly half of the mines have been closed since the special rectification operation organized by Shaanxi Province and the destruction of the ecological environment of the mines has been checked. However, in some areas, the "one-size-fits-all" approach of completely suspending production for rectification and forbidding production for a long period of time has brought about the shortage of supplies of gravel and the sharp rise of prices in the market.

Notification requirements, to ensure the supply of stone materials market by the municipal government is always lead, county-level government is specifically responsible for. In accordance with the principle of both the root cause of the problem and the principle of removing the plugging and blocking, the shut-down should be closed and the integrated production preserved as soon as possible for acceptance and production. The newly set mines shall be unifiedly planned, rationally laid out and sited precisely, organized as soon as possible for public sale and placement, Newly set mines must strictly abide by the relevant provisions of the ecological protection of nature reserves; improve the joint approval, law enforcement, supervision and long-term mechanism, the establishment of quarrying clearance of green passage.
