在分析隧道及地下工程的环保优势及其对环境的破坏作用（水土流失、地表沉陷、爆破振动、“三废”危害等）的基础上，着重提出减少隧道工程对环境的不利影响的对策： 1）从长计议，合理加大工程投入，适当提高设计与施工标准； 2）设计、施工要查明水环境，保护水资源，重视地质预探预报工作； 3）正确认识 “长隧短打”； 4）较大幅度地提高隧道及地下工程施工机械和专业化水平； 5）做到“达标排放”，强调工程材料无公害； 6）防灾、救援设施和管理制度必须完备。希望有关方面进一步重视隧道及地下工程的环境问题，力争做到积极开发、合理利用、精心构筑、科学运管。

In the paper, the advantages of tunnels and underground works in terms of environment protection and the damage of tunnels and underground works on the environment (including water and soil loss, ground surface subsidence, blasting vibration, waste mucks, waste liquid and exhausted air) are analyzed. Then, the following countermeasures are proposed to minimize the adverse effect of tunnels on the environment: 1) The cost of the project should be increased and the design and construction standard of the project should be improved appropriately; 2) In the design and construction of the project, the water environment should be well investigated, the water resources should be well protected and the geological probing and prediction should be emphasized; 3) The conventional strategy of “sectionalized driving of long tunnels” should be reevaluated; 4) The mechanization and profession level of the construction of tunnels and underground works should be improved dramatically; 5) All the wastes should not be discharged until they have met relevant standards, and the construction materials should be free of pollution; 6) Complete disaster prevention and rescue facilities and complete management system must be provided. It is hoped that relevant parities should pay more attention on the environment issues of tunnels and underground works so as to realize active development of tunnels and underground works, rational utilizing of tunnels and underground works, elaborate construction of tunnels and underground works and scientific operation and management of tunnels and underground works.
