Abstract
AbstractThe development of the practice and purpose of environmental assessment (EA) both in the UK and overseas is reviewed, and the implementation of European Commission EA legislation into the UK planning system is examined, together with its relevance to the water industry. The effects and obligations on the industry are discussed with reference to practice prior to and since the introduction of EA legislation. The process of EA is illustrated by reference to the River Avon Sluices Scheme being undertaken by NRA (Severn Trent), and the environmental statements being prepared in accordance with SI 1217. Likely future developments in EA are suggested.
