According to the latest version of the government-approved<br />
Investment Project Catalogue, the approval examination<br />
process is currently passed down to the provincial department.<br />
Nonetheless, the examination has to pass through several<br />
government entities: military, CAAC, provincial Department<br />
of Environmental Protection, provincial Water Resources<br />
Department, provincial Office of Land and Resources, provincial<br />
Development and Reform Commission, Earthquake Management<br />
Department, Cultural Relics Investigation Team, Surveying and<br />
Mapping Institute and Prospecting Team and others.<br />
With encouragement for aviation development and local<br />
government urban planning, a portion of <strong>GA</strong> airports are under<br />
planning to relocate and upgrade. Other <strong>GA</strong> airport innovations<br />
and expansion are made upon needs, but are required to maintain<br />
the capability to serve the <strong>GA</strong> industry.<br />
Apart from CAAC approved airports, other kinds of airports are also<br />
in operation in the country. There are more than 421 <strong>GA</strong> airports and<br />
temporary landing points, serving the purpose of agriculture, pilot<br />
training, aircraft test flight and other mission segments.<br />
