Environmental impact assessment
Environmental impact assessment is a technique or a process by which information about the environmental effects of a project is collected, both by the developer and from other sources, and taken into account by the relevant decision making body before a decision is given on whether the development should go ahead.[1]
Procedures
John Glasson, Riki Therivel et. al. suggest the following procedures for the environmental impact assessment process, which is developed from their earlier book originally published in 1994. [2]
