Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA)

This DCLG web page provides links to a range of documents on EIA and further sources of information. EIA is a procedure that must be followed by certain types of development before they are granted development consent. The requirement for EIA comes from a European directive (Directive 85/33/EEC as amended by Directive 97/11/EC).
