Description

*The first practical reference devoted to the emerging field of environmental impact assessment (EIA) follow-up--destined to be the classic text on follow-up * Written and edited by an authoritative team of internationally known experts in EIA * The "must-have" tool for impact assessment professionals, academics, regulators, and proponents working on projects of all scales in all jurisdictionsThis is the first book to present in a coherent manner the theory and practice of environmental impact assessment (EIA) and strategic environmental assessment (SEA) follow-up. Without some form of follow-up, the consequences of impact assessments and the environmental outcomes of development projects will remain unknown.Assessing Impact examines both EIA follow-up and the emerging practice of SEA follow-up, and showcases follow-up procedures in various countries in North America, Europe, and Australasia. It offers theoretical and legislative perspectives through detailed case study examples. The authors present a micro-, macro- and meta-scale analysis of EIA practice ranging from individual plan and project level through to the jurisdictional level, as well as an analysis of the concept of EIA. They give full coverage to the roles of proponents, both private and governmental, EIA regulators, and the affected public in designing and executing follow-up programs.The Contributors: Barry Sadler (Canada), Leonard Ortolano (US), Maria Ros'rio Partid'rio (Portugal), Thomas Fischer (Germany/UK), Bill Ross (Canada), Elvis Au (Hong Kong/China), Ross Marshall (UK), John Bailey (Australia), Bryan Jenkins (New Zealand), Jill Baker (Canada), Simon Hui (Hong Kong/China), Christine May (US), Johan Meijer (TheNetherlands)
