ABSTRACT

The daily penalty system in environmental protection laws is a crucial mechanism designed to enhance legal deterrence and improve the effectiveness of environmental enforcement. This system stipulates that enterprises failing to rectify environmental violations within the specified time frame will incur daily cumulative fines based on the duration of the infraction. This approach not only elevates the cost of wrongdoing but also encourages enterprises to rectify environmental violations more promptly, thus playing a significant role in environmental protection. In recent years, with the heightened awareness of environmental issues and the increasing severity of environmental problems, the study and practice of the daily penalty system have garnered widespread attention. A thorough investigation into this system could further refine the environmental protection legal framework, enhance the efficiency and fairness of environmental enforcement, and thereby promote the healthy development of environmental protection efforts in our country.
