Jiangsu Party Secretary Li Qiang reiterated the need to achieve high standards in treating Taihu Lake's pollution during a June 6 visit to a treatment plant.

Minimizing the levels of Taihu Lake's pollution and controlling the algae problem is particularly critical during the early summer months and Li's visit proved a timely reminder of the work that stands ahead in terms of waste-water treatment and reducing the quantity of sewage.

In reference to the algae bloom that often forms in late May and early June on account of agricultural over-fertilization, the senior official encouraged local enterprises to employ the latest technological advancements to transfer algae into useful resources such as biofuel.

Li was joined by Li Xiaomin, Wuxi's Party secretary, and Fan Jinlong, secretary-general of Jiangsu Province, all of whom took part in a symposium discussing the Taihu Lake water pollution situation in Wuxi, Suzhou, and Changzhou.
