Environmental Assessments Defining Practical And Effective Controls For Your Projects

In addition to the legal requirement to assess environmental, social, and health effects of a proposed development, an EIA provides the means to set practical and effective measures to eliminate, control and mitigate environmental impacts. AIE deliver EIA reports which provide decision makers the guidance they need to genuinely improve environmental management, not just provide a tick in the box to submit to the regulator.

AIE follow international standards for EIA as well as incorporating national requirements into the process. Typically this will consist of the following steps:

• Screening to determine whether an EIA is required
• Scoping to focus on the most significant impacts and issues
• Description of Baseline Conditions and Baseline Studies
• Impact Prediction
• Impact Assessment
• Mitigations
• Environmental Management Plan

After completion of the various steps, a detailed Environmental Impact Assessment report is then issued that documents the entire EIA process and includes the environmental effects/ potential impacts of the proposed project and recommended mitigation measures to be taken.
