Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur
INTRODUCTION
• The Principles of EIA Best Practice document is
organized in two main parts:
Part 1
• Describes the purposes, aims, and approach
used to develop the Principles; and
Part 2
• Presents the definition of EIA, its objectives,
and the Principles of EIA Best Practice.

AIMS AND APPROACH
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 3
1.1 Purpose
• As the premier organization in the field,
International Association for Impact Assessment
(IAIA) is expected to play a leading and proactive
role in the improvement and dissemination of EIA
concepts and practices.
• The Principles of EIA Best Practice are intended to
provide widely agreed guidance to IAIA members
and others involved in applying EIA processes.
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 4
1.2 Aims
• The Principles of EIA Best Practice are designed primarily for
reference and use by those professionally involved in environmental
impact assessment.
• The aim is to promote the effective practice of environmental
impact assessment consistent with the institutional and process
arrangements that are in force in different countries.
• Accordingly, the Principles are broad, generic, and non-prescriptive,
emphasize EIA as a process, and are intended to be applicable to all
levels and types of proposals, having regard to the limits of
available time, information and resources.
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 5
1.3 Approach
• They utilized the results of the International
Study of the Effectiveness of Environmental
Assessment, the UNEP document on Issues,
Trends and Practice in EIA, other guidance
materials on best practice in EIA, and the
expertise and experience of IAIA members.
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 6
PART 2
PRINCIPLES OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
ASSESSMENT BEST PRACTICE
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 7
2.1 Definition of Environmental
Impact Assessment (EIA)
• Environmental Impact Assessment can be
defined as: The process of identifying,
predicting, evaluating and mitigating the
biophysical, social, and other relevant effects
of development proposals prior to major
decisions being taken and commitments
made.
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 8
2.2 Objectives of EIA
• To ensure that environmental considerations are explicitly
addressed and incorporated into the development decision making
process;
• To anticipate and avoid, minimize or offset the adverse significant
biophysical, social and other relevant effects of development
proposals;
• To protect the productivity and capacity of natural systems and the
ecological processes which maintain their functions; and
• To promote development that is sustainable and optimizes resource
use and management opportunities.
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 9
2.3 Introduction to the Principles
• Two tiers of EIA Principles are included in this document: Basic and Operating.
 “Basic Principles” apply to all stages of EIA; they also apply to Strategic
Environmental Assessment (SEA) of policies, plans and programs.
• The list of Basic Principles should be applied as a single package, recognizing that
the Principles included are interdependent and, in some cases, may conflict (e.g.,
rigor and efficiency). A balanced approach is critical when applying the Principles
to ensure that environmental impact assessment fulfills its purpose and is carried
out to internationally accepted standards. EIA thus produces both complete
analyses and the means of reconciling apparently conflicting principles.
 “Operating Principles” describe how the Basic Principles should be applied to the
main steps and specific activities of the environmental impact assessment process;
e.g., screening; scoping; identification of impacts; assessment of alternatives.
• It is also envisaged that subsequent tiers of Principles could evolve, e.g., “activity-
specific,” “state-of-the-art” and “next generation” of impact assessment
principles. However their development would constitute a separate effort, building
on and extending the Basic and Operating Principles presented below.
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 10
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 11
2.3 Basic Principles
Environmental Impact Assessment should be:
• Transparency - the process should have clear, easily understood requirements for EIA
content; ensure public access to information; identify the factors that are to be taken into
account in decision making; and acknowledge limitations and difficulties.
• Certainty – the process and timing of the assessment should be agreed in advanced and
followed by all participant.
• Participation - the process should provide appropriate opportunities to inform and involve
the interested and affected publics, and their inputs and concerns should be addressed
explicitly in the documentation and decision making.
• Practicality - the process should result in information and outputs which assist with problem
solving and are acceptable to and able to be implemented by proponents.
• Flexibility – the assessment process should be able to adapt to deal efficiently with any
proposal and decision making situation.
• Cost-effective - the process should achieve the objectives of EIA within the limits of available
information, time, resources and methodology.
• Credible - the process should be carried out with professionalism, rigor, fairness, objectivity,
impartiality and balance, and be subject to independent checks and verification.
• Accountability – the decision makers are responsible to all parties for their action and
decisions under the assessment process.
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 12
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 13
2.3 Operating Principles
The EIA process should be applied:
• As early as possible in decision making and throughout the life cycle of the
proposed activity;
• To all development proposals that may cause potentially significant effects;
• To biophysical impacts and relevant socio-economic factors, including health,
culture, gender, lifestyle, age, and cumulative effects consistent with the concept
and principles of sustainable development;
• To provide for the involvement and input of communities and industries affected
by a proposal, as well as the interested public;
• In accordance with internationally agreed measures and activities.
Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 14
Specifically the EIA process should provide for:
• Screening - to determine whether or not a proposal should be subject to EIA and, if so, at
what level of detail.
• Scoping - to identify the issues and impacts that are likely to be important and to establish
terms of reference for EIA.
• Examination of alternatives - to establish the preferred or most Environmentally sound and
benign option for achieving proposal objectives.
• Impact analysis - to identify and predict the likely environmental, social and other related
effects of the proposal.
• Mitigation and impact management - to establish the measures that are necessary to avoid,
minimize or offset predicted adverse impacts and, where appropriate, to incorporate these
into an environmental management plan or system.
• Reporting – to prepare the information necessary for decision making.
• Review of the EIS – to check the quality of EIA report.
• Decision making - to approve or reject the proposal and to establish the terms and conditions
for its implementation.
• Follow up - to monitor, manage and audit impacts of project implementation.
• Public Involvement - to inform and consult with stockholders.

A balanced approach is critical when applying the Principles to ensure that environmental impact assessment fulfills its purpose and is carried out to internationally accepted standards. EIA thus produces both complete analyses and the means of reconciling apparently conflicting principles.  “Operating Principles” describe how the Basic Principles should be applied to the main steps and specific activities of the environmental impact assessment process; e.g., screening; scoping; identification of impacts; assessment of alternatives. • It is also envisaged that subsequent tiers of Principles could evolve, e.g., “activity- specific,” “state-of-the-art” and “next generation” of impact assessment principles. However their development would constitute a separate effort, building on and extending the Basic and Operating Principles presented below. Dr. Rajendra Singh Thakur/ EIA 10

  • 12. 2.3 Basic Principles Environmental Impact Assessment should be: • Transparency - the process should have clear, easily understood requirements for EIA content; ensure public access to information; identify the factors that are to be taken into account in decision making; and acknowledge limitations and difficulties. • Certainty – the process and timing of the assessment should be agreed in advanced and followed by all participant. • Participation - the process should provide appropriate opportunities to inform and involve the interested and affected publics, and their inputs and concerns should be addressed explicitly in the documentation and decision making. • Practicality - the process should result in information and outputs which assist with problem solving and are acceptable to and able to be implemented by proponents. • Flexibility – the assessment process should be able to adapt to deal efficiently with any proposal and decision making situation. • Cost-effective - the process should achieve the objectives of EIA within the limits of available information, time, resources and methodology. • Credible - the process should be carried out with professionalism, rigor, fairness, objectivity, impartiality and balance, and be subject to independent checks and verification. • Accountability – the decision makers are responsible to all parties for their action and decisions under the assessment process.

  • 14. 2.3 Operating Principles The EIA process should be applied: • As early as possible in decision making and throughout the life cycle of the proposed activity; • To all development proposals that may cause potentially significant effects; • To biophysical impacts and relevant socio-economic factors, including health, culture, gender, lifestyle, age, and cumulative effects consistent with the concept and principles of sustainable development; • To provide for the involvement and input of communities and industries affected by a proposal, as well as the interested public; • In accordance with internationally agreed measures and activities.

  • 15. Specifically the EIA process should provide for: • Screening - to determine whether or not a proposal should be subject to EIA and, if so, at what level of detail. • Scoping - to identify the issues and impacts that are likely to be important and to establish terms of reference for EIA. • Examination of alternatives - to establish the preferred or most Environmentally sound and benign option for achieving proposal objectives. • Impact analysis - to identify and predict the likely environmental, social and other related effects of the proposal. • Mitigation and impact management - to establish the measures that are necessary to avoid, minimize or offset predicted adverse impacts and, where appropriate, to incorporate these into an environmental management plan or system. • Reporting – to prepare the information necessary for decision making. • Review of the EIS – to check the quality of EIA report. • Decision making - to approve or reject the proposal and to establish the terms and conditions for its implementation. • Follow up - to monitor, manage and audit impacts of project implementation. • Public Involvement - to inform and consult with stockholders.
