Zhongwei Rural Renovation: Mobile Toilets

The current rural toilet renovation policy in Zhongwei City does not explicitly cover the renovation of mobile toilets. The existing policy primarily focuses on the construction and renovation of fixed sanitary toilets. Here is a detailed analysis:

I. Policy Coverage Mainly Targets Fixed Toilets
According to the 2024 rural toilet renovation plan in Shapotou District, the focus is on promoting the construction of demonstration villages across the entire village, with two fixed toilet models clearly adopted:

1. Centralized Sewer Collection Type: Suitable for villages with sewage pipeline network coverage, with a subsidy standard of 2,500 yuan per household;
2. Three-chamber Septic Tank Water-saving and Anti-freezing Type: Suitable for cold regions or scattered households, with a subsidy standard of 4,000 yuan per household.
   Both models require the construction of underground septic tanks or connection to sewage pipelines, falling within the typical scope of fixed toilet renovation.

II. Renovation of Problematic Household Toilets Does Not Involve Mobile Toilets
In the 2025 renovation requirements for historically problematic toilets (1,703 households) and newly identified problematic toilets (1,012 households), it is clearly stipulated that they must meet 'safety and hygiene, sewage treatment, accessibility, and environmental protection standards'. However, the renovation measures are concentrated on the repair or reconstruction of fixed toilets, such as repairing damaged septic tanks and improving anti-freezing facilities, without mentioning the renovation or replacement of mobile toilets.

III. Subsidy Standards Are Not Related to Mobile Toilets
Although the 2026 subsidy standards for some household toilets in Shapotou District are tiered (3,000 yuan per unit, 2,500 yuan, 3,500 yuan, 4,000 yuan, etc.), they are all aimed at the construction costs of fixed toilets, such as material costs, construction costs, and anti-freezing treatment costs. Mobile toilets, which do not require underground works, have a significantly different cost structure from fixed toilets, making the existing subsidy policies inapplicable.

IV. City-wide Toilet Renovation Data Supports Policy Direction
In 2025, Zhongwei City renovated a total of 4,800 rural household toilets (400 in Shapotou District), with the renovation direction focusing on 'centralized sewage treatment' and 'universal access to sanitary toilets', emphasizing the utilization of sewage resources and long-term usage efficiency, which are inconsistent with the temporary and mobile nature of mobile toilets.
