1. Previously, coral reefs were found on the idle reclamation land on Haihua Island. According to the previous regulations on the protection of coral reefs in Hainan Province and the later regulations on the protection of coral reefs, excavation and landfilling are illegal.

2. Ten years after the completion of Haihua Island, it was found that there were no living corals within the range of 300-500 meters, and all of them had died. Many years have passed and they have not relied on the power of nature to repair themselves. It shows that in some sea areas near Haihua Island, the change of coral reef environment is irreversible.
