Explanation:

Procedural law is about the process and methods of enforcing legal rights and duties. It focuses on how legal actions are carried out. Option D, "The order in which the steps of a trial take place", is related to the process of a legal proceeding (a trial), which is the essence of procedural law. Option A is about substantive rights (substantive law). Option B is likely an environmental regulation (substantive law in a sense). Option C is about what one can do (substantive rights in public).
