» The Ministry of Environmental Protection started to release real-time data on surface water quality via its Web site on July 1, which will be updated every four hours and easily accessible to the public.
» Many incidents of water pollution, such as the outbreak of toxic cyanobacteria in Lake Tai and the contamination of the Songhua River by a chemical plant explosion, have necessitated a release of real-time data.
» An expert at an environment research center called the move "a good start," but added that the information should also include data on tributaries and be presented in a systematic and comprehensible way.
