Abstract:

Environmental impact assessment is an important manifestation of the precautionary principle in environmental law,and the result of EIA determines whether EIA actually plays a role in preventing environmental pollution and ecological damage.There are two main system designs,e.g.the entity veto effect and “purely procedural” binding effect.EIA result in our country has an entity veto effect,which determines whether the project development should be approved.However,the entity veto effect is often under question due to lack of actual effect in practice.Considering this,it is not acceptable to neglect the legal tradition of giving importance to entity and ignoring procedure in order to pursue rapid economic growth,nor is it wise to simply pursue pure procedure.

Key words: EIA result, procedure, legal force
