　　INTERIM PROVISIONS FOR THE ADMINISTRATION OF THE ENVIRONMENT IN

　　THE ECONOMIC ZONES OPEN TO THE OUTSIDE WORLD

　　These Provisions are formulated for the purpose of strengthening the

　　administration of the environment in the economic zones open to the

　　outside world, preventing and remedying environmental pollution and the

　　disruption of ecological balance, safeguarding human health and protecting

　　and creating good investment environment so as to promote economic and

　　social development.

　　Article 2

　　The term "economic zones open to the outside world" as used in these

　　Provisions refers to the special economic zones, the open coastal cities

　　and the coastal economic development areas approved by the State.

　　All units and individuals that are engaged in production and business

　　activities in the economic zones open to the outside world shall abide by

　　these Provisions.

　　Article 3

　　People's governments at various levels in the economic zones open to the

　　outside world shall adhere to the principles of "having prevention as the

　　main concern and combining prevention with remedying" and strengthen the

　　work for the comprehensive improvement of the environment. They shall

　　incorporate environmental protection into the economic and social

　　development plans of their own localities and specify the targets, tasks

　　and measures with respect to environmental protection and organize the

　　implementation thereof.

　　Article 4

　　It shall be imperative to evaluate the impact on the environment, carry

　　out overall planning and ensure rational distribution, if construction of

　　new areas is to be undertaken in the economic zones open to the outside

　　world. All departments concerned shall carry out the construction in

　　strict accordance with the requirements in respect of planning and

　　distribution.

　　The existing irrational distribution of the economic zones open to the

　　outside world shall be rectified gradually in conjunction with urban

　　reform and industrial readjustment. In residential areas, water-resource

　　reserves, health resorts, nature reserves, tourist resorts, scenic spots

　　and places of historic interest, and other areas which need special

　　protection, no projects that may cause environmental pollution may be

　　constructed and a deadline shall be set for any such projects that have

　　been completed to be improved, readjusted, or removed.

　　Article 5

　　With respect to projects that are not covered by the State provisions

　　concerning the standards of environmental quality, the people's

　　governments of the provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities

　　directly under the Central Government having jurisdiction over the

　　economic zones open to the outside world may formulate their own local

　　supplementary standards. If the implementation of the State standards

　　concerning the discharge of pollutants fails to satisfy the requirements

　　for environmental quality of their own localities, they may formulate

　　their own local standards concerning the discharge of pollutants which are

　　stricter than the State standards concerning the discharge of pollutants

　　and submit them to the State departments for environmental protection for

　　the record.

　　The local standards concerning the discharge of pollutants formulated in

　　accordance with the provisions of the preceding paragraph shall be

　　implemented by the enterprises and institutions in the localities.

　　Article 6

　　Technology and equipment introduced from abroad into the economic zones

　　open to the outside world shall conform to the requirement that they shall

　　cause no pollution or little pollution. If the technology or equipment to

　　be introduced from abroad will cause pollution and no means is yet

　　available at home to tackle it, the corresponding environmental protection

　　facilities shall be introduced simultaneously. With respect to all newly-

　　constructed projects, alteration projects or expansion projects, it shall

　　be imperative to ensure that both the supporting facilities for preventing

　　and remedying environmental pollution and the principal part of the

　　project are put into operation simultaneously.

　　Article 7

　　When entering into an economic contract, all units and individuals in the

　　economic zones open to the outside world shall specify the obligations and

　　responsibilities of each of the parties thereto in respect of

　　environmental protection and ensure that measures for preventing and

　　remedying environmental pollution are duly stipulated. The contract may

　　not contain anything that runs counter to the laws and regulations of the

　　State or of the locality for environmental protection.

　　Article 8

　　Units that intend to engage in developmental construction in the economic

　　zones open to the outside world shall, in accordance with the pertinent

　　provisions of the State, submit an environmental impact report/form(s) and

　　a text on environmental protection in the preliminary design of a

　　construction project and shall, upon completion of the project, submit a

　　report on inspecting and accepting the completed environmental protection

　　facilities.

　　The department for environmental protection shall, within 45 days of

　　receipt of the environmental impact report/form(s) or within 30 days of

　　receipt of the text on environmental protection in the preliminary design

　　of a construction project and the report on inspecting and accepting the

　　completed environmental protection facilities, give an official written

　　reply to the unit that has submitted the above-mentioned documents. If no

　　such reply is given within the prescribed period of time, the documents

　　submitted shall automatically become effective.

　　Article 9

　　Enterprises and institutions in the economic zones open to the outside

　　world that have to discharge pollutants shall apply to the departments for

　　environmental protection under the local people's governments for

　　permission to discharge pollutants and fill in forms to report truthfully

　　on the pollutant discharging and treating facilities that they possess and

　　the kind(s) of pollutants to be discharged, the mode(s) of discharging,

　　and the quantity and density of the pollutants under normal operational

　　conditions. Their production or business operations shall begin only

　　after the application has been verified and approved and the document for

　　the registration of pollutant discharge has been obtained. If changes have

　　taken place in the discharge of pollutants, these shall be reported in

　　good time to the departments for environmental protection under the local

　　people's governments.

　　Those that discharge pollutants in excess of the State or local standards

　　shall pay an excess pollutant discharge fee in accordance with the

　　pertinent provisions of the State; those that discharge pollutants into

　　water shall pay a pollutant discharge fee in accordance with the pertinent

　　provisions of the State.

　　Article 10

　　The departments for environmental protection under the people's

　　governments at various levels in the economic zones open to the outside

　　world shall be responsible for organizing, co-ordinating, supervising and

　　inspecting the work of environmental protection in their own localities.

　　The units that are subjected to supervision and inspection shall provide

　　the actual relevant information and data.

　　The departments for environmental protection shall undertake the

　　obligation and responsibility to maintain the confidentiality of the

　　information and data provided by the units that are subjected to

　　supervision and inspection.

　　Article 11

　　The departments for environmental protection under the people's

　　governments at various levels in the economic zones open to the outside

　　world or other competent departments may order those units that have

　　violated these Provisions and caused pollution damage to remedy the

　　situation within a prescribed period of time, pay the expenses for

　　eliminating the pollution and compensate for the losses thus incurred and

　　may also give them a warning or impose a fine on them.

　　Any party concerned that does not accept the penalties may file a suit

　　with a people's court within 15 days of receipt of the written decision

　　concerning the penalties. If no suit is filed and yet the decision is not

　　carried out within the prescribed period of time, the departments for

　　environmental protection or other competent departments may apply to the

　　people's court for the compulsory enforcement of the decision.

　　Article 12

　　The people's governments of the provinces, autonomous regions and

　　municipalities where the economic zones open to the outside world are

　　located may formulate measures for the implementation of these Provisions

　　in accordance therewith.

　　Article 13

　　These Provisions shall go into effect on the date of promulgation.
