In order to further promote the prevention and control of environmental pollution by solid waste in China, the Ministry of Ecological and Environment released the revised draft of “the Law of the People's Republic of China on the Prevention and Control of Environmental Pollution by Solid Waste” for Comments in July 2018, and expected to be finished in 2019. The Ministry of Ecological Environment in March, 2018, reviewed and approved the “Implementation Plan for the Reform of Solid Waste Import Management System by Prohibiting the Entry of Foreign Waste”. In addition, in order to further standardize the import management of solid waste and prevent the environmental pollution of imported waste, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment has made four adjustments to the “Catalogue of Imported Waste Management”, which has greatly increased the categories of wastes prohibited from import.
