Abstract:The concept, properties, contents and classification of Environmental Geological Engineering (EGE) are proposed in this paper. Environmental Geological Engineering (EGE) is the integrated techniques and measures for preventing and controlling geological hazards and geoenviron-mental problems. It is the combination of environmental geology with engineering on the basis of environmental geological theories. EGE is benifit-free and characterized by complexity and integrity, so it is not simple and standard engineering but integrated systematic engineering. EGE comprises regionalization, management survey, design, operation, monitoring and supervision. The typical example and strategies of EGE in China have also been proposed in this paper.
