  Core reading

  Recently, in order to resolutely curb irresponsible, indiscriminate and fraudulent actions against the EIA documents, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment has made frequent blows and severely cracked down. In addition to regularly reporting the problems found in the review of the EIA documents, it has also included environmental impacts on the management objects for the first time. The evaluation credit platform's deadline for rectification lists and untrustworthy "blacklists" will be publicly exposed. This practice has formed a powerful deterrent to the fraudulent and indiscriminate fabrication of environmental assessments.
