The Environmental Standard System is a very important part of environmental protection law. It embodies the goal of environmental protection while it reflects the technological development level of our country. As different kinds of environmental pollution increase, the effect of environmental standards is becoming more and more pertinent in our environmental management, preservation, and social-economic growth. On the other hand, it plays a very important role in economic development and foreign trade. Nowadays, basic theories as the definition and attribute of establishment environmental standard are still in debate. The lack of systemic theoretical research fails to meet the needs of china’s practice. The definition, attribute and significance of environmental standard on a theoretical basis is important to the study of environmental standard. However, ambiguous legal attributes and insufficient legal binding effect makes the environmental standards weak and powerless. In addition, there are many other problems of the establishment of environmental standard in China’s current practice. Capital investment is small; the applicability, operability and scientific of the environmental standard is poor; the protection covers problems; the whole process, the formulation and implementation of release lack coherence; only pay attention to formulate, despise maintenance, modification mechanism is not timely; the lack of association between the amount of coordination with each other. But in contrast, America makes accurate environmental standards, which pay attention to actual effect, emphasis on public participation and support related technology. The standardization management results in incapable of discriminate between environmental standards and product standards. This paper discusses the environmental standard system and the implementation in both China and the USA from the legislative and technical perspectives. It compares the environmental standard system of China and USA, analyzes and summarizes the defects and deficiencies of the environmental standards in China, considers advantages and characteristics of the environmental standards in the USA, and proposes some improvements to the environmental standard system in China to improve the legal effects of environmental protection, and promotes the technological level of environmental protection.
