The national environmental protection authorities have given 40 days for the administrators of the old Summer Palace to submit an environment impact report on its lake seepage prevention project.

The park would then have to pay a heavy penalty fine, up to 200,000 yuan, if they fail to table the assessment report, according to a report in Beijing-based Fazhi Wanbao (Legal Evening News).
