There are two main contents of environmental impact assessment in China: planning environmental impact assessment and construction project environmental impact assessment. That is, the specific content of the project owner's case, the environmental background of the construction site, the possible impact and damage on the environment after the project is completed and implemented, the countermeasures to prevent these impacts and damage and its economic and technical demonstration.

The Environmental Impact Assessment Law will be officially implemented in 23. In an interview with reporters today, Zhu Xingxiang, director of the Supervision Department of the State Environmental Protection Administration, said that one of the most important innovations of the law is to regulate "public participation" as an important principle and procedure in environmental impact assessment. The state encourages relevant units, experts and the public to participate in environmental impact assessment in an appropriate way, and the people have the right to speak on environmental issues of construction projects, thus ensuring the public's right to know and participate in environmental protection.

the environmental impact assessment law stipulates that the way to involve the public in the environmental impact assessment of the draft special plan is to fully understand the true opinions of relevant units, experts and the public on the draft environmental impact report of the plan by holding demonstration meetings, hearings or other forms, such as holding symposiums, getting information individually and soliciting opinions in writing, before the draft plan is submitted for approval.

The Law on Environmental Impact Assessment stipulates that "the compiling organ shall seriously consider the opinions of relevant units, experts and the public on the draft environmental impact report

, and shall attach an explanation on whether the opinions are adopted or not in the environmental impact report submitted for review".
