Abstract: In order to develop a scientific, legitimate and effective environmental impact assessment (EIA) index system for industrial park planning, the establishment principles, basic procedures and methods of the EIA index system for high-pollution and energy-intensive industrial park planning were discussed based on relevant domestic and international researches, in combination with EIA objectives and the characteristics of the industrial park. One high-pollution and energy-intensive industrial park was taken as an example. On the basis of considering the constraining factors of regional resources and environment and analyzing the environmental impacts of the planning implementation, by using the methods of checklists, expert consultation, ArcGIS vector overlay, scenario analysis and pressure-state-response analysis, a set of EIA index system suitable for high-pollution and energy-intensive industrial park planning was proposed from the aspects of environmental quality, ecological protection, resource utilization, pollution discharge, risk prevention and control, carbon emissions, centralized governance, and environmental management. Through the determination of the indicator system, the industrial orientation, scale, layout and pollution prevention measures of the planning were optimized and adjusted from the perspective of the ecological environment, which could guide the green and high-quality development of industrial parks. Also, it had specific reference significance for other industrial parks to carry out planning environmental impact assessment.
