论我国环境影响评价制度中公众参与机制的完善

On the Public Participation in the Assessment System of Environmental Impact in China

我国2002年颁布的《中华人民共和国环境影响评价法》虽然对公众参与的规定较之此前有了实质性的进展,但在公众参与环境影响评价的制度建设方面尚存在着立法及具体操作层面上的诸多缺陷。这些将大大弱化公众参与环境影响评价的实效,也制约着环境影响评价制度中公众参与机制的形成。因此,结合我国的环境法制状况和具体国情,应完善我国环境影响评价制度中公众参与机制。

Although the regulations in the assessment law of environmental impact in PR China issued in 2002 gained substantial progress than in previous years, there still leaves much to be desired in the aspects of legislation and practical implementation with regard to the system improvenaent concerning the public participation and the assessment of environmental influence. All these will prevent the positive effect of public participation in the assessment of environmental impact into full play, and curb the formation of the public participation systena in the assessment system of environmental impact. Therefore, we should improve the public participation system in the environmental impact with the present situation of environmental law and practical situation in China taken into account.
