(2) Water risk management
Tongwei regularly carries out water risk identification and assessment for all its operations. In 2022, we carried out the annual water risk assessment for all operations, as described below:
Low-risk area: 127
Medium-risk area: 4
High-risk area: 5
Extremely high-risk area: 18
(3) Water risk mitigation measures
① Plant design and planning
• Raise the foundation height of the plant
• Installation of waterproof gates
• Water balance calculation
② Water resources operation and management
• Recycling of recycled water
• Develop comprehensive water pollution indicators
• Require suppliers to implement water resource management
• Monitor water use and discharge and practice water conservation
(4) Company water consumption data for 2022
