Extractions: About the Ramsar Convention Environmental Impact Assessment and the Ramsar Convention This paper was presented by David Pritchard to Technical Session A of the 6th Meeting of the Conference of the Contracting Parties in Brisbane, Australia, March 1996, and is reprinted here from volume 10/12a of the Brisbane Proceedings . It provides a clear and succinct introduction to the question of Environmental Impact Assessment, especially vis-à-vis the Ramsar Convention, and concludes with a potential set of draft guidelines for eventual use of the Contracting Parties. At the April 1997 meeting of the Scientific and Technical Review Panel, BirdLife International undertook to pursue this work further with a view to presenting recommendations to the Standing Committee in September 1997. Web Editor. "Environmental Impact Assessment: Towards Guidelines for Adoption under the Ramsar Convention" D. E. Pritchard BirdLife International/Royal Society for the Protection of Birds Appended to this written version of the technical session presentation is a suggested set of guidelines on environmental impact assessment for wetlands, which have been drawn up following wide consul-tation and which provide a basis for further discussion. The presentation itself begins by concentrating on the policy objectives of the issue, and the question of who needs what kind of standards or guidelines on what, and how to meet the need.

Good Practices - Possible Solutions - Environmental Impact Assessment
GOOD PRACTICES Possible Solutions - environmental impact assessmentIntroduction. environmental impact assessment (EIA) is a tool
http://www.agrifood-forum.net/practices/eia.asp

Extractions: Introduction Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is a tool used to identify the environmental, social and economic impacts of a project prior to decision-making. It aims to predict environmental impacts at an early stage in project planning and design, find ways and means to reduce adverse impacts, shape projects to suit the local environment and present the predictions and options to decision-makers. By using EIA both environmental and economic benefits can be achieved, such as reduced cost and time of project implementation and design, avoided treatment/clean-up costs and impacts of laws and regulations. Key Elements Scoping: identify key issues and concerns of interested parties; Screening: decide whether an EIA is required based on information collected; Identifying and evaluating alternatives: list alternative sites and techniques and the impacts of each; Mitigating measures dealing with uncertainty: review proposed action to prevent or minimise the potential adverse effects of the project;

Environmental Impact Assessment: The Quest For A Holistic Picture
environmental impact assessment The Quest for a Holistic Picture. Dr.Susan Riha, Dr. Lois Levitan and Dr. John Hutson Cornell University.
http://www.pmac.net/eialois.htm

Extractions: This paper is adapted from a presentation by the authors at the Third National Integrated Pest Management Workshop/Symposium, held in Washington DC February 27-March 1 of this year. It was part of the General Session on the Economic, Environmental, Public Health and Social Impacts of IPM. These papers will be published by USDA/ERS in the forthcoming proceedings of the conference. Comments on this paper (or requests for copies sent as e-mail attachments formatted in MS Word) can be addressed to Dr. Lois Levitan. Questions/comments about the IPM Symposium and other papers presented there can be directed to Dr. Sarah Lynch at USDA/Economic Research Service. 1. Defining Environmental Impacts 1.1. Chemical to Biocriteria Although biocriteria are important indicators of environmental impact, their use raises several problems. There is not currently a widely-accepted, multi-dimensional measure of biological integrity/ecosystem quality (Barbour et al. 1995). An index of biotic integrity (IBI) has been developed using biosurvey data to construct a multimetric index of heterogeneous variables (Karr 1981, Simon and Lyons 1995). Criticism of this index approach include ambiguity, eclipsing of one metric by another, arbitrary variance , unreality involved in combining unlike metrics, post hoc justification, single linear scale of response, inability to use in diagnostics, and nonsense results. Simon and Lyons (1995) attempt to defend IBI in the face of these criticisms, but many of Suter's concerns are inherent to such indices and therefore should be taken seriously.

Extractions: Odin Government Ministries Archive ... News Archive Environmental Impact Assessment The right to information on the consequences of encroachment on the environment is guaranteed by the Norwegian Constitution. Regulations in the Planning and Building Act for environmental impact assessments (EIA) make provision for public access to information on the consequences of major development projects which can have serious consequences for surrounding areas. The developer is required to draw up reports on the effects of the proposed project on the environment, natural resources and social structure. These reports ensure that the authorities have the information they need to decide whether the project should be approved. The reports also help ensure that the developer is made aware and obliged to take account of environmental consequences at the planning stage. The relevant sectoral authorities are responsible for supervising and approving the EIA. Regulations on EIAs are set out in Chapter VII-a of the Planning and Building Act. We have had provisions for EIA since 1990. The regulations conform to corresponding legislation in the EU, and are covered by the EEA agreement.

Extractions: REGULATORY IMPACT ASSESSMENT Title of regulatory proposal: The Environmental Impact Assessment (Uncultivated land or Semi-Natural Areas) (Scotland) Regulations 2002. Purpose and intended effect of the measure Issue and objective Issue: To implement obligations arising under Directive 85/337/EEC (as amended by Directive 97/11/EC) as far as they relate to the provisions on uncultivated land or semi-natural areas. Objectives: Risk Assessment Failure to implement these measures would risk further land of environmental value being brought into intensive use without the environmental effects of the change being considered. Non implementation or failure to implement EU obligations fully would also lead to infraction proceedings being brought against the UK at the European Court of Justice.
