(QINGDAO, October 30) -- The Qingdao government will reinforce the management of local energy resource recycling systems, said officials of Qingdao Economic and Trade Committee on Tuesday.

A registration system for resource recycling operators will be established by the Committee. Those who engage in recycling businesses beginning November 1, 2007, will put their records to recycling industry administration when they receive new business licenses 30 days later.

Operators who obtained licenses before November 1, 2007, need to register no later than December 30, 2007.

Strict regulations and management will foster a positive environment for the development of local resource recycling and standardize the industry criteria.
