COURSE OBJECTIVE: Acquire knowledge of all steps in the environmental impact assessment process. Introduction to the legal provisions. Preparation of a study within the framework of the seminar.
COURSE IMPLEMENTATION PROGRAM:
1. Introduction. Types of environmental impact assessment: single project assessment (EIA) and strategic environmental assessment (SEA). Legal framework for EIA. Inclusion of health and sociological impacts in EIA.
2. Steps in the assessment process (screening and scoping, prediction and assessment of impacts, identification of environmental protection measures, preparation and assessment of the environmental impact study, decision making, monitoring and performance analysis). Post assessment measures: monitoring, control, evaluation.
3. Post assessment measures: monitoring, control, evaluation.
4. Screening: objectives, methods and ideas of screening; examples of positive and negative screening lists
5. Scoping: results and methods.
6. Prediction of impacts and their assessment: steps (description of current situation, prediction techniques, environmental components and prediction methods, uncertainties).
7. Description of the current situation, relevant environmental data for the preparation of the EIA.
8. Inventory of demonstrations. Comparison of alternative solutions. Example.
9. Impacts of different types, streams and methods of waste disposal.
Quantification procedures. Example.
10. EIA tools. Techniques for identifying and assessing impacts; opportunities and limitations.
11. Direct, indirect, cumulative and interactive impacts on the
Environment; characteristics, assessment and mitigation techniques.
12. Computational methods in EIA; application criteria and model parameterization. Examples.
13. Concept of significance in EIA process; types of reference values.
14. Mitigation: types of mitigation measures and hierarchies.
Criteria for selection of environmental mitigation measures.
15. Advantages and disadvantages of public participation and prerequisites for effective participation in the assessment. Presentation of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) by the Environmental Impact Study (EIA), content and review of the EIA.
