Introduced by the EP Law (1989) as a supplement to the Environmental Impact Assessment System, the Three Synchronizations System requires that all measures and facilities of pollution prevention and control for construction project should be designed, constructed, and operated synchronously with the design, construction, and operation of the main body of the construction project. The Three Synchronizations System and the Environmental Impact Assessment System are two major instruments for the environmental management of construction projects in China.
