Times News has collected the account opening fee for pipeline gas in Hangzhou for 26 years, and decided to stop collecting it. On May 9th this year, the Provincial Price Bureau issued the Notice on Further Standardizing the Burying and Renovation Fees of Pipeline Gas Facilities (Zhejiang Price Information No.20 1 2128), stipulating that the current charging policies such as opening account fees and initial installation fees for pipeline gas facilities will be stopped from July1this year, and pipeline gas will be charged instead. Yesterday, Hangzhou Municipal Price Bureau, Hangzhou Urban Construction Investment Group and Hangzhou Gas Group jointly announced the adjustment of pipeline natural gas charging policy. Fees include pre-embedded fees, renovation fees and installation service fees. Previously, residents in Hangzhou city had to pay an account opening fee of 1700 yuan to apply for opening pipeline gas. After the implementation of the new policy, what changes will be made to residents? Director Xu Bin of the Service Price Management Office of Hangzhou Price Bureau introduced that according to Zhejiang Price Information No.2012128, Hangzhou Price Bureau issued the Notice on Regulating the Burying and Renovation Charge of Pipeline Gas Facilities in Residential Areas of Our City (Hangzhou Price Service No.2012143), which clarified the pre-burying and renovation of pipeline gas facilities in urban areas. These three kinds of fees, simply put, are embedded fees charged by pipeline gas enterprises to developers of new residential projects; The latter two fees are charged by gas enterprises to gas users. For new residential developers, the pre-embedding fee has been adjusted: the pre-embedding fee was 14 yuan/square meter; After adjustment, the construction area per square meter is 2 1 yuan. Xiaoshan District, Yuhang District and five counties (cities) of the pipeline gas facilities embedded fees and renovation fee standards, proposed by the local government, reported to the Hangzhou Municipal Price Bureau for further approval. Change the maximum payment 1450 yuan the minimum payment for 450 yuan. For resident users, it can be made clear that the account opening fee for each household 1 700 yuan will be stopped from July. Secondly, there are different charging policies for new users. This is mainly divided into two types: one is unventilated residential users; The other is other residential users. For unventilated residential users who apply for opening pipeline gas, they have to pay the renovation fee of pipeline gas facilities 1000 yuan, and the installation service fee of connecting pipes (including metal bayonet) between indoor gas cookers and meters, 250 yuan; If you still use the gas water heater, you have to pay the gas water heater pipe installation service fee, 200 yuan. Other houses apply for opening pipeline gas, as long as they pay the installation service fee of connecting pipes (including metal bayonet) between gas cookers and meters, 250 yuan; If you use a gas water heater, you will pay the service fee for pipeline installation of the gas water heater, 200 yuan. For urban families with disabilities and urban low-income families and families with difficulties who hold the "Hangzhou Family Assistance Certificate" within the validity period, the pipeline gas transformation fee will be charged by half. Of course, the installation service fees and other charges for behind-the-table facilities (metal hoses or rubber hoses connecting the valve in front of the stove to the valve in the stove, etc.) are privately owned by residents, so they are not subject to government pricing, and are charged to users by gas operating enterprises at cost. In addition, some gas facilities that need to install geothermal boilers and other unconventional designs are charged according to the investment cost of unconventional gas use, and the charging standard is published on the portal website and business outlets of the Municipal Gas Group. After the implementation of the new charging standard, users who apply for opening pipeline gas and use gas stoves and gas water heaters at the same time will have to pay 1450 yuan at most; At least as long as pay 450 yuan. Who are the "unventilated residential users" who have to pay more for the renovation of facilities 1000 yuan for the renovation of pipeline gas facilities? Yu Jianguo, general manager of Hangzhou Gas Group, said that these users refer to houses that did not implement gas facilities and did not pay the pre-embedding fee when building. Specifically, some old residential quarters in Hangzhou, which were built before 1993, did not embed gas pipelines in advance before they were put into use, such as Harmony Community and Zhaohui Community. This 1000 yuan renovation fee for pipeline gas facilities is mainly used for the expenses of survey, design, equipment, materials, construction and installation of gas meters and pipeline gas facilities in front of meters. However, most users in newly-built residential quarters in Hangzhou do not have to pay 1000 yuan for the renovation of pipeline gas facilities because they have embedded gas pipelines before and the developers have paid the gas embedding fee. What should I do if I open an account without installing an unfired refundable account and just paid the account opening fee before July/KLOC-0? Hangzhou Gas Group expects that because the account opening fee will be stopped from next month, users who have paid the account opening fee but have not installed it, or have installed it but have not ignited it, can apply for returning their accounts. To go through the formalities of account withdrawal, you can go through the formalities of account withdrawal as long as you hold the original ID card of the original account holder, the original account opening acceptance form and the original account opening invoice, and pay the expenses required for dismantling. General Manager Yu Jianguo said that before, Hangzhou Gas Group accepted very few applications for returning households, from the opening of pipeline gas in Hangzhou in 2006 to 20 1 1 year, only 1 15 households. This time, due to the suspension of 1700 yuan account opening fee, there may be a large number of concentrated applications for account cancellation. Moreover, these users will re-apply for opening an account after returning their accounts. As a result, the next stage will bring the peak of application for opening and installation of pipeline gas in Hangzhou. Serving seven business halls to cope with the peak of account opening one week, Hangzhou Gas's seven business outlets will accept the application for returning households and extend the service hours. These seven outlets are: Tianmushan Road Business Hall, Zhaohui Business Hall, Dongyuan Business Hall, Genshan Road Business Hall, Cai He Business Hall, Jiulian Business Hall and Jianghong Business Hall. The service hours are from 7: 30 to17: 30 from Monday to Sunday. Special users such as widowed elderly people can also entrust the community to make centralized appointments, and Hangzhou Gas Group will provide on-site service. The 24-hour service hotline of Hangzhou Gas Group is 057/KLOC-057 1—88828788. General Manager Yu Jianguo said that since the peak of application and installation will come in July 1, users who need to return their homes or re-apply need not concentrate on the peak of acceptance after July 1, because there is no time limit for returning their homes. After the implementation of the new charging policy, the demolition, modification and repair of pipeline gas facilities caused by the change of house property rights and house decoration can only be paid with the ID card of the applicant and the original valid property certificate. ● Extension 1000 yuan renovation fee involves users. At present, it is difficult to count in Hangzhou. In fact, there are still many users of bottled liquefied petroleum gas. This part of users did not use pipeline gas, some were in unventilated old residential areas, and the other part was that the residential areas were ventilated, but they did not apply for opening. If they didn't pay the pre-embedding fee during the previous residential construction, they may need to pay a renovation fee of 1000 yuan when they apply for opening the pipeline gas. How many residential users are there? Previously, when the special inspection office of Hangzhou Bureau of Quality and Technical Supervision conducted an annual inspection of Hangzhou gas cylinders, the figure obtained was that there were still 750,000 gas cylinders in use in Hangzhou. Hangzhou Baijiang Liquefied Gas Co., Ltd. is the largest liquefied gas company in Hangzhou, with about 200,000 users at present. However, these two data include not only residents, but also suburban and small catering users. Therefore, it is difficult to count the number of unventilated residential users. In the 1980s, Hangzhou began to collect account opening fees. At present, Hangzhou has implemented the account opening fee of 1700 yuan for residents of pipeline gas, based on Hangjia Gongnong [2000] No.048. 1700 yuan's account opening fee, the fee for disabled residents and needy families is halved, that is, 850 yuan/household. According to the relevant person in charge of the Resource and Environment Price Management Office of Hangzhou Price Bureau, the account opening fee for pipeline gas charged by residents in Hangzhou began in the 1980s. 500 yuan's "collection fee" was first charged to each household in 1986. After adjustment, it rose to 1 100 yuan, 1200 yuan, 2,000 yuan, and reached 3,000 yuan in 1996, 20,000 yuan. According to the data of Hangzhou Gas Group, as of 20 1 1 year 1 1 month, there are more than 570,000 residential users of pipeline gas in Hangzhou.
