Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is one of the most important
tools employed in contemporary environmental management. Presenting
the component activities of EIA within a coherent methodological
framework, Environmental Impact Assessment: A Methodological
Approach provides students and practitioners alike with a rigorous
grounding in EIA theory, including biophysical, social, strategic
and cumulative assessment activities, and examines the crucial
role, and limitations, of the science of EIA. Deliberately designed
to be relevant world-wide, the author focuses on the common skills
and generic aspects of EIA that underpin all impact assessment
work, independent of country or jurisdiction, such as screening and
scoping, impact identification, public involvement, prediction and
monitoring, evaluation, and quality control. The variety of
approaches are identified along with their associated strengths and
weaknesses, enabling potential, new and experienced practitioners
to make informed choices and to improve their working practices
through a better understanding of EIA activity. The ultimate aim of
this book is to move from the notion of EIA as a technical
procedure towards a concept of EIA as a particular form of
problem-solving with varied methodological requirements.
