PURPOSE: to ensure a high level of protection of the\nenvironment and human health through establishing common minimum\nrequirements on the assessment of the effects of certain public and\nprivate projects on the environment (EIA).
\nPROPOSED ACT: Directive of the European Parliament and\nof the Council.
\nBACKGROUND: Directive 2011/92/EU (which codifies\nDirective 85/337/EEC and its three subsequent amendments) contains\na legal requirement to carry out an environmental impact assessment\n(EIA) of public or private projects likely to have significant\neffects on the environment, prior to their authorisation. The\nDirective has become a key instrument of environmental integration\nand has also brought environmental and socio-economic\nbenefits.
\nThe\nmid-term review of the 6th Environment Action Programme\nand the latest Commission report published in 2009 on the application and efficacy of\nthe EIA Directive (Directive 85/337/EEC) stressed the need for\nimproving the assessment of environmental impacts and to adapt\nthe Directive to the policy, legal and technical context which has\nevolved considerably.
\nThe general objective of the proposal is to adjust the\nprovisions of the codified EIA Directive (Directive 2011/92/EU), so\nas to correct shortcomings, reflect ongoing environmental and\nsocio-economic changes and challenges, and align with the\nprinciples of smart regulation. The revision of the EIA Directive\nsubscribes to the Europe 2020 strategy, in particular the priority\nof sustainable growth.
\nIMPACT ASSESSMENT: the impact assessment, which is\nsubmitted with the proposal, identified shortcomings in the current\nEIA legislation that lead to unsatisfactory implementation and\nsocio-economic costs in the implementation of the Directive. The\nshortcomings of the Directive can be grouped into three specific\nproblem areas: (1) the screening procedure, (2) the quality and\nanalysis of the EIA and (3) the risks of inconsistencies within the\nEIA process itself and in relation to other legislation.
\nThe IA assessed a number of policy options with the\naim of identifying cost-effective measures to address these\nproblems.
\nNine of the twelve amendments analysed are expected to\nprovide significant environmental and socio-economic benefits\nwithout additional administrative costs; moderate savings are also\nexpected.
\n\n· \nTwo amendments (assessment of alternatives and\nmonitoring) are expected to provide high environmental and\nsocio-economic benefits at moderate costs for developers and with\nlimited or negligible costs for public authorities.
\n\n· \nOne amendment (adaptation of the EIA to new\nchallenges) is expected to provide high benefits at moderate to\nhigh costs for developers and public authorities.
\nIn the long term, the significant environmental and\nsocio-economic benefits and the moderate savings associated with\nthe proposed amendments are likely to exceed the administrative\ncosts.
\nLEGAL BASIS: Article 192(1) of the Treaty on the\nFunctioning of the European Union.
\nCONTENT: the proposal for the amendment of Directive\n2011/92/EU aims to : (i) strengthen the provisions concerning\nthe quality of the EIA with the aim of achieving a high level of\nenvironmental protection; (ii) enhance policy coherence and\nsynergies with other EU law instruments and (iii) simplify\nprocedures, with a view to reducing unnecessary administrative\nburdens. The main amendments are as follows:
\n\n· \nInitial screening: it is proposed to clarify the screening\nprocedure, by modifying the criteria of Annex III and\nspecifying the content and justification of screening decisions.\nThese amendments would ensure that EIAs are carried out only for\nprojects that would have significant environmental effects,\navoiding unnecessary administrative burden for small-scale\nprojects.
\n\n· \nQuality and analysis of the\nEIA: it is proposed to: (i) introduce\namendments to reinforce the quality of the process (i.e.\nmandatory scoping and quality control of EIA information), (ii)\nspecify the content of the EIA report (mandatory assessment\nof reasonable alternatives, justification of final decisions,\nmandatory post-EIA monitoring of significant adverse effects) and\n(iii) adapt the EIA to challenges (i.e. biodiversity,\nclimate change, disaster risks, availability of natural\nresources).
\n\n· \nRisk of inconsistencies: it is proposed to: (i) specify the\ntime-frames for the main stages required by the Directive\n(public consultation, screening decision, final EIA decision) and\n(ii) introduce a mechanism, a kind of EIA one-stop shop to\nensure coordination or joint operation of the EIA with the\nenvironmental assessments required under other relevant EU\nlegislation, e.g. Directives 2010/75/EU, 92/43/EEC,\n2001/42/EC.
\nBUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS: the proposal has no\nimplications for the EU budget.
\nDELEGATED ACTS: the proposal contains provisions\nempowering the Commission to adopt delegated acts in accordance\nwith Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European\nUnion.

\nThe Council held a public policy debate on proposed\nchanges to the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive\n(Directive 2011/92/EU). The outcome of discussions will\nprovide guidance for further work on this proposal.
\nMinisters focused\non three questions prepared by the Presidency:
\n\n1. Do Member States agree with the proposal to introduce an\nobligation for a joint or coordinated assessment of a project\nunder one competent authority in all cases, where the\nobligation to assess its effects on the environment arises from\nvarious Union legislative instruments?
\n\n2. Do Member States consider that the scoping of the\nenvironmental impact assessment by the competent authority should\nbe mandatory in all cases as foreseen in Article 5 of\nthe proposal?
\n\n3. Do Member States think that the proposal for a system of\naccredited experts entitled to draw up an environmental\nreport is necessary to ensure the quality such reports?
\nDuring the debate,\ngeneral agreement was expressed on the objective to review the\nDirective in order to simplify the EIA procedures and to improve\ntheir quality. However, considerable concerns were raised with\nregard to the type of measures proposed by the Commission to\nachieve this aim.
\nMinisters expressed\nconcerns on the compatibility of the proposed provisions with the\ndifferent environmental assessment systems in Member States. In\nparticular, Member States pointed out the risk of increased\nadministrative burden and additional costs. Many delegations\nconsidered it not to be appropriate to establish a very\nprescriptive system at EU level. Most delegations were in favour of\nflexibility left to Member States to cater for specific situations\nand to adapt to the existing provisions.
\nThe Commission\nindicated that some change to the current systems was inevitable to\nimprove the EIA processes for the benefit of the users and the\nenvironment. It also showed its openness to Member States' concrete\nsuggestions to make progress on the proposal.

\n\n1. Do Member States agree with the proposal to introduce an\nobligation for a joint or coordinated assessment of a project\nunder one competent authority in all cases, where the\nobligation to assess its effects on the environment arises from\nvarious Union legislative instruments?
\n\n2. Do Member States consider that the scoping of the\nenvironmental impact assessment by the competent authority should\nbe mandatory in all cases as foreseen in Article 5 of\nthe proposal?
\n\n3. Do Member States think that the proposal for a system of\naccredited experts entitled to draw up an environmental\nreport is necessary to ensure the quality such reports?
\nDuring the debate,\ngeneral agreement was expressed on the objective to review the\nDirective in order to simplify the EIA procedures and to improve\ntheir quality. However, considerable concerns were raised with\nregard to the type of measures proposed by the Commission to\nachieve this aim.
\nMinisters expressed\nconcerns on the compatibility of the proposed provisions with the\ndifferent environmental assessment systems in Member States. In\nparticular, Member States pointed out the risk of increased\nadministrative burden and additional costs. Many delegations\nconsidered it not to be appropriate to establish a very\nprescriptive system at EU level. Most delegations were in favour of\nflexibility left to Member States to cater for specific situations\nand to adapt to the existing provisions.

\nThe Committee on the Environment, Public Health and\nFood Safety adopted the report by Andrea ZANONI (ADLE, IT) on the\nproposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the\nCouncil amending Directive 2011/92/EU of the assessment of the\neffects of certain public and private projects on the\nenvironment.
\nThe committee recommends that Parliaments\nposition adopted in first reading following the ordinary\nlegislative procedure should amend the Commission proposal as\nfollows:
\nProjects: the report\nstates that projects must include: (1) the execution of\nconstruction works, or of other installations or\nschemes, including demolition works directly linked to the\nexecution of construction works; (2) other interventions in the\nnatural surroundings and landscape including those involving the\nresearch and extraction of mineral\nresources.
\nConflicts of interest:\nMembers consider that experience acquired in a number of Member\nStates has shown that specific rules need to be introduced\nto put an end to the issue of conflicts of interest, in order to\nensure that the aim of the environmental impact assessment\nprocedure is effectively achieved. Accordingly, the competent\nauthorities charged with carrying out assessments must not, under\nany circumstances, overlap with developers nor be dependent on or\nsubordinate to them.
\nDrafting and verification of reports: an amendment states that environmental reports must\nbe prepared by qualified and technically competent\nexperts and/or committees of national experts whose\nnames shall be made public.
\nThe experts must provide appropriate guarantees of\ncompetence and impartiality when verifying environmental\nreports. These experts shall be responsible for the\nenvironmental impact assessments they conduct or supervise or on\nwhich they have issued a positive or negative opinion.
\nPublic participation:\nthe public shall have the right to request an environmental\nimpact assessment of a given project considered to be a matter of\nconcern, to that end employing active participation arrangements\ninvolving residents, local authorities, or NGOs in particular. The\nreport adds new clauses regarding access to information on revision\nor amendment of an environmental impact report as well as on\nmeasures regarding mitigation or compensation.
\nWith a view to strengthening access and transparency,\na central portal providing timely environmental information\nelectronically should be made available in each Member\nState.
\nCross-border projects:\nMember States and neighbouring countries involved shall\ntake all measures necessary to ensure that respective\ncompetent authorities cooperate in order to provide jointly\nfor one integrated and coherent cross-border\nenvironmental impact assessment from an early planning stage, in\naccordance with applicable legislation on\nUnion co-funding.
\nMonitoring and measures on mitigation and\ncompensation: the amended text\nspecifies that Member States shall take the necessary measures to\nprovide that projects are constructed and operated in accordance\nwith the following principles:
\n\n· \nall appropriate preventive measures are taken\nagainst pollution and no significant pollution is\ncaused;
\n\n· \nthe best available techniques are applied and\nnatural resources and energy are used efficiently;
\n\n· \nwaste generation is prevented and, where waste\nis generated, it is prepared for re-use, recycled,\nrecovered;
\n\n· \nthe necessary measures are taken to prevent\naccidents and limit their consequences;
\n\n· \nthe necessary measures are taken upon definitive\ncessation of activities to avoid any risk of pollution and return\nthe site of operation to a satisfactory state.
\nWhere monitoring indicates that mitigation or\ncompensation measures are not sufficient or unforeseen significant\nadverse environmental effects are observed, the competent authority\nshall lay down corrective mitigation or compensation\nmeasures in accordance with the relevant\nlegislation.
\nPenalties: based on\nexperience, to ensure the harmonised and effective application of\nthe Directive, the legal systems of Member States need to provide\nfor effective and dissuasive penalties where national provisions\nare infringed, in particular with regard to cases of conflict of\ninterest or corruption.

\nShale gas: the report\nproposes to include the exploration, evaluation and extraction of\ncrude oil and/or natural gas trapped in gas-bearing strata of shale\nin Annex I of the directive regarding projects that must be made\nsubject to an assessment.
\nPURPOSE: to ensure a high level of protection of the\nenvironment and human health through establishing common minimum\nrequirements on the assessment of the effects of certain public and\nprivate projects on the environment (EIA).
\nPROPOSED ACT: Directive of the European Parliament and\nof the Council.
\nBACKGROUND: Directive 2011/92/EU (which codifies\nDirective 85/337/EEC and its three subsequent amendments) contains\na legal requirement to carry out an environmental impact assessment\n(EIA) of public or private projects likely to have significant\neffects on the environment, prior to their authorisation. The\nDirective has become a key instrument of environmental integration\nand has also brought environmental and socio-economic\nbenefits.
\nThe\nmid-term review of the 6th Environment Action Programme\nand the latest Commission report published in 2009 on the application and efficacy of\nthe EIA Directive (Directive 85/337/EEC) stressed the need for\nimproving the assessment of environmental impacts and to adapt\nthe Directive to the policy, legal and technical context which has\nevolved considerably.
\nThe general objective of the proposal is to adjust the\nprovisions of the codified EIA Directive (Directive 2011/92/EU), so\nas to correct shortcomings, reflect ongoing environmental and\nsocio-economic changes and challenges, and align with the\nprinciples of smart regulation. The revision of the EIA Directive\nsubscribes to the Europe 2020 strategy, in particular the priority\nof sustainable growth.
\nIMPACT ASSESSMENT: the impact assessment, which is\nsubmitted with the proposal, identified shortcomings in the current\nEIA legislation that lead to unsatisfactory implementation and\nsocio-economic costs in the implementation of the Directive. The\nshortcomings of the Directive can be grouped into three specific\nproblem areas: (1) the screening procedure, (2) the quality and\nanalysis of the EIA and (3) the risks of inconsistencies within the\nEIA process itself and in relation to other legislation.
\nThe IA assessed a number of policy options with the\naim of identifying cost-effective measures to address these\nproblems.
\nNine of the twelve amendments analysed are expected to\nprovide significant environmental and socio-economic benefits\nwithout additional administrative costs; moderate savings are also\nexpected.
\n\n· \nTwo amendments (assessment of alternatives and\nmonitoring) are expected to provide high environmental and\nsocio-economic benefits at moderate costs for developers and with\nlimited or negligible costs for public authorities.
\n\n· \nOne amendment (adaptation of the EIA to new\nchallenges) is expected to provide high benefits at moderate to\nhigh costs for developers and public authorities.
\nIn the long term, the significant environmental and\nsocio-economic benefits and the moderate savings associated with\nthe proposed amendments are likely to exceed the administrative\ncosts.
\nLEGAL BASIS: Article 192(1) of the Treaty on the\nFunctioning of the European Union.
\nCONTENT: the proposal for the amendment of Directive\n2011/92/EU aims to : (i) strengthen the provisions concerning\nthe quality of the EIA with the aim of achieving a high level of\nenvironmental protection; (ii) enhance policy coherence and\nsynergies with other EU law instruments and (iii) simplify\nprocedures, with a view to reducing unnecessary administrative\nburdens. The main amendments are as follows:
\n\n· \nInitial screening: it is proposed to clarify the screening\nprocedure, by modifying the criteria of Annex III and\nspecifying the content and justification of screening decisions.\nThese amendments would ensure that EIAs are carried out only for\nprojects that would have significant environmental effects,\navoiding unnecessary administrative burden for small-scale\nprojects.
\n\n· \nQuality and analysis of the\nEIA: it is proposed to: (i) introduce\namendments to reinforce the quality of the process (i.e.\nmandatory scoping and quality control of EIA information), (ii)\nspecify the content of the EIA report (mandatory assessment\nof reasonable alternatives, justification of final decisions,\nmandatory post-EIA monitoring of significant adverse effects) and\n(iii) adapt the EIA to challenges (i.e. biodiversity,\nclimate change, disaster risks, availability of natural\nresources).
\n\n· \nRisk of inconsistencies: it is proposed to: (i) specify the\ntime-frames for the main stages required by the Directive\n(public consultation, screening decision, final EIA decision) and\n(ii) introduce a mechanism, a kind of EIA one-stop shop to\nensure coordination or joint operation of the EIA with the\nenvironmental assessments required under other relevant EU\nlegislation, e.g. Directives 2010/75/EU, 92/43/EEC,\n2001/42/EC.
\nBUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS: the proposal has no\nimplications for the EU budget.
\nDELEGATED ACTS: the proposal contains provisions\nempowering the Commission to adopt delegated acts in accordance\nwith Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European\nUnion.
\nPURPOSE: to ensure a high level of protection of the\nenvironment and human health through establishing common minimum\nrequirements on the assessment of the effects of certain public and\nprivate projects on the environment (EIA).
\nPROPOSED ACT: Directive of the European Parliament and\nof the Council.
\nBACKGROUND: Directive 2011/92/EU (which codifies\nDirective 85/337/EEC and its three subsequent amendments) contains\na legal requirement to carry out an environmental impact assessment\n(EIA) of public or private projects likely to have significant\neffects on the environment, prior to their authorisation. The\nDirective has become a key instrument of environmental integration\nand has also brought environmental and socio-economic\nbenefits.
\nThe\nmid-term review of the 6th Environment Action Programme\nand the latest Commission report published in 2009 on the application and efficacy of\nthe EIA Directive (Directive 85/337/EEC) stressed the need for\nimproving the assessment of environmental impacts and to adapt\nthe Directive to the policy, legal and technical context which has\nevolved considerably.
\nThe general objective of the proposal is to adjust the\nprovisions of the codified EIA Directive (Directive 2011/92/EU), so\nas to correct shortcomings, reflect ongoing environmental and\nsocio-economic changes and challenges, and align with the\nprinciples of smart regulation. The revision of the EIA Directive\nsubscribes to the Europe 2020 strategy, in particular the priority\nof sustainable growth.
\nIMPACT ASSESSMENT: the impact assessment, which is\nsubmitted with the proposal, identified shortcomings in the current\nEIA legislation that lead to unsatisfactory implementation and\nsocio-economic costs in the implementation of the Directive. The\nshortcomings of the Directive can be grouped into three specific\nproblem areas: (1) the screening procedure, (2) the quality and\nanalysis of the EIA and (3) the risks of inconsistencies within the\nEIA process itself and in relation to other legislation.
\nThe IA assessed a number of policy options with the\naim of identifying cost-effective measures to address these\nproblems.
\nNine of the twelve amendments analysed are expected to\nprovide significant environmental and socio-economic benefits\nwithout additional administrative costs; moderate savings are also\nexpected.
\n\n· \nTwo amendments (assessment of alternatives and\nmonitoring) are expected to provide high environmental and\nsocio-economic benefits at moderate costs for developers and with\nlimited or negligible costs for public authorities.
\n\n· \nOne amendment (adaptation of the EIA to new\nchallenges) is expected to provide high benefits at moderate to\nhigh costs for developers and public authorities.
\nIn the long term, the significant environmental and\nsocio-economic benefits and the moderate savings associated with\nthe proposed amendments are likely to exceed the administrative\ncosts.
\nLEGAL BASIS: Article 192(1) of the Treaty on the\nFunctioning of the European Union.
\nCONTENT: the proposal for the amendment of Directive\n2011/92/EU aims to : (i) strengthen the provisions concerning\nthe quality of the EIA with the aim of achieving a high level of\nenvironmental protection; (ii) enhance policy coherence and\nsynergies with other EU law instruments and (iii) simplify\nprocedures, with a view to reducing unnecessary administrative\nburdens. The main amendments are as follows:
\n\n· \nInitial screening: it is proposed to clarify the screening\nprocedure, by modifying the criteria of Annex III and\nspecifying the content and justification of screening decisions.\nThese amendments would ensure that EIAs are carried out only for\nprojects that would have significant environmental effects,\navoiding unnecessary administrative burden for small-scale\nprojects.
\n\n· \nQuality and analysis of the\nEIA: it is proposed to: (i) introduce\namendments to reinforce the quality of the process (i.e.\nmandatory scoping and quality control of EIA information), (ii)\nspecify the content of the EIA report (mandatory assessment\nof reasonable alternatives, justification of final decisions,\nmandatory post-EIA monitoring of significant adverse effects) and\n(iii) adapt the EIA to challenges (i.e. biodiversity,\nclimate change, disaster risks, availability of natural\nresources).
\n\n· \nRisk of inconsistencies: it is proposed to: (i) specify the\ntime-frames for the main stages required by the Directive\n(public consultation, screening decision, final EIA decision) and\n(ii) introduce a mechanism, a kind of EIA one-stop shop to\nensure coordination or joint operation of the EIA with the\nenvironmental assessments required under other relevant EU\nlegislation, e.g. Directives 2010/75/EU, 92/43/EEC,\n2001/42/EC.
\nBUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS: the proposal has no\nimplications for the EU budget.
\nDELEGATED ACTS: the proposal contains provisions\nempowering the Commission to adopt delegated acts in accordance\nwith Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European\nUnion.
\nThe Committee on the Environment, Public Health and\nFood Safety adopted the report by Andrea ZANONI (ADLE, IT) on the\nproposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the\nCouncil amending Directive 2011/92/EU of the assessment of the\neffects of certain public and private projects on the\nenvironment.
\nThe committee recommends that Parliaments\nposition adopted in first reading following the ordinary\nlegislative procedure should amend the Commission proposal as\nfollows:
\nProjects: the report\nstates that projects must include: (1) the execution of\nconstruction works, or of other installations or\nschemes, including demolition works directly linked to the\nexecution of construction works; (2) other interventions in the\nnatural surroundings and landscape including those involving the\nresearch and extraction of mineral\nresources.
\nConflicts of interest:\nMembers consider that experience acquired in a number of Member\nStates has shown that specific rules need to be introduced\nto put an end to the issue of conflicts of interest, in order to\nensure that the aim of the environmental impact assessment\nprocedure is effectively achieved. Accordingly, the competent\nauthorities charged with carrying out assessments must not, under\nany circumstances, overlap with developers nor be dependent on or\nsubordinate to them.
\nDrafting and verification of reports: an amendment states that environmental reports must\nbe prepared by qualified and technically competent\nexperts and/or committees of national experts whose\nnames shall be made public.
\nThe experts must provide appropriate guarantees of\ncompetence and impartiality when verifying environmental\nreports. These experts shall be responsible for the\nenvironmental impact assessments they conduct or supervise or on\nwhich they have issued a positive or negative opinion.
\nPublic participation:\nthe public shall have the right to request an environmental\nimpact assessment of a given project considered to be a matter of\nconcern, to that end employing active participation arrangements\ninvolving residents, local authorities, or NGOs in particular. The\nreport adds new clauses regarding access to information on revision\nor amendment of an environmental impact report as well as on\nmeasures regarding mitigation or compensation.
\nWith a view to strengthening access and transparency,\na central portal providing timely environmental information\nelectronically should be made available in each Member\nState.
\nCross-border projects:\nMember States and neighbouring countries involved shall\ntake all measures necessary to ensure that respective\ncompetent authorities cooperate in order to provide jointly\nfor one integrated and coherent cross-border\nenvironmental impact assessment from an early planning stage, in\naccordance with applicable legislation on\nUnion co-funding.
\nMonitoring and measures on mitigation and\ncompensation: the amended text\nspecifies that Member States shall take the necessary measures to\nprovide that projects are constructed and operated in accordance\nwith the following principles:
\n\n· \nall appropriate preventive measures are taken\nagainst pollution and no significant pollution is\ncaused;
\n\n· \nthe best available techniques are applied and\nnatural resources and energy are used efficiently;
\n\n· \nwaste generation is prevented and, where waste\nis generated, it is prepared for re-use, recycled,\nrecovered;
\n\n· \nthe necessary measures are taken to prevent\naccidents and limit their consequences;
\n\n· \nthe necessary measures are taken upon definitive\ncessation of activities to avoid any risk of pollution and return\nthe site of operation to a satisfactory state.
\nWhere monitoring indicates that mitigation or\ncompensation measures are not sufficient or unforeseen significant\nadverse environmental effects are observed, the competent authority\nshall lay down corrective mitigation or compensation\nmeasures in accordance with the relevant\nlegislation.
\nPenalties: based on\nexperience, to ensure the harmonised and effective application of\nthe Directive, the legal systems of Member States need to provide\nfor effective and dissuasive penalties where national provisions\nare infringed, in particular with regard to cases of conflict of\ninterest or corruption.
\nShale gas: the report\nproposes to include the exploration, evaluation and extraction of\ncrude oil and/or natural gas trapped in gas-bearing strata of shale\nin Annex I of the directive regarding projects that must be made\nsubject to an assessment.

\nIn the long term, the significant environmental and\nsocio-economic benefits and the moderate savings associated with\nthe proposed amendments are likely to exceed the administrative\ncosts.
\nLEGAL BASIS: Article 192(1) of the Treaty on the\nFunctioning of the European Union.
\nCONTENT: the proposal for the amendment of Directive\n2011/92/EU aims to : (i) strengthen the provisions concerning\nthe quality of the EIA with the aim of achieving a high level of\nenvironmental protection; (ii) enhance policy coherence and\nsynergies with other EU law instruments and (iii) simplify\nprocedures, with a view to reducing unnecessary administrative\nburdens. The main amendments are as follows:
\n\n· \nInitial screening: it is proposed to clarify the screening\nprocedure, by modifying the criteria of Annex III and\nspecifying the content and justification of screening decisions.\nThese amendments would ensure that EIAs are carried out only for\nprojects that would have significant environmental effects,\navoiding unnecessary administrative burden for small-scale\nprojects.
\n\n· \nQuality and analysis of the\nEIA: it is proposed to: (i) introduce\namendments to reinforce the quality of the process (i.e.\nmandatory scoping and quality control of EIA information), (ii)\nspecify the content of the EIA report (mandatory assessment\nof reasonable alternatives, justification of final decisions,\nmandatory post-EIA monitoring of significant adverse effects) and\n(iii) adapt the EIA to challenges (i.e. biodiversity,\nclimate change, disaster risks, availability of natural\nresources).
\n\n· \nRisk of inconsistencies: it is proposed to: (i) specify the\ntime-frames for the main stages required by the Directive\n(public consultation, screening decision, final EIA decision) and\n(ii) introduce a mechanism, a kind of EIA one-stop shop to\nensure coordination or joint operation of the EIA with the\nenvironmental assessments required under other relevant EU\nlegislation, e.g. Directives 2010/75/EU, 92/43/EEC,\n2001/42/EC.
\nBUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS: the proposal has no\nimplications for the EU budget.
\nDELEGATED ACTS: the proposal contains provisions\nempowering the Commission to adopt delegated acts in accordance\nwith Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European\nUnion.
\nPURPOSE: to ensure a high level of protection of the\nenvironment and human health through establishing common minimum\nrequirements on the assessment of the effects of certain public and\nprivate projects on the environment (EIA).
\nPROPOSED ACT: Directive of the European Parliament and\nof the Council.
\nBACKGROUND: Directive 2011/92/EU (which codifies\nDirective 85/337/EEC and its three subsequent amendments) contains\na legal requirement to carry out an environmental impact assessment\n(EIA) of public or private projects likely to have significant\neffects on the environment, prior to their authorisation. The\nDirective has become a key instrument of environmental integration\nand has also brought environmental and socio-economic\nbenefits.
\nThe\nmid-term review of the 6th Environment Action Programme\nand the latest Commission report published in 2009 on the application and efficacy of\nthe EIA Directive (Directive 85/337/EEC) stressed the need for\nimproving the assessment of environmental impacts and to adapt\nthe Directive to the policy, legal and technical context which has\nevolved considerably.
\nThe general objective of the proposal is to adjust the\nprovisions of the codified EIA Directive (Directive 2011/92/EU), so\nas to correct shortcomings, reflect ongoing environmental and\nsocio-economic changes and challenges, and align with the\nprinciples of smart regulation. The revision of the EIA Directive\nsubscribes to the Europe 2020 strategy, in particular the priority\nof sustainable growth.
\nIMPACT ASSESSMENT: the impact assessment, which is\nsubmitted with the proposal, identified shortcomings in the current\nEIA legislation that lead to unsatisfactory implementation and\nsocio-economic costs in the implementation of the Directive. The\nshortcomings of the Directive can be grouped into three specific\nproblem areas: (1) the screening procedure, (2) the quality and\nanalysis of the EIA and (3) the risks of inconsistencies within the\nEIA process itself and in relation to other legislation.
\nThe IA assessed a number of policy options with the\naim of identifying cost-effective measures to address these\nproblems.
\nNine of the twelve amendments analysed are expected to\nprovide significant environmental and socio-economic benefits\nwithout additional administrative costs; moderate savings are also\nexpected.
\n\n· \nTwo amendments (assessment of alternatives and\nmonitoring) are expected to provide high environmental and\nsocio-economic benefits at moderate costs for developers and with\nlimited or negligible costs for public authorities.

\nThe European Parliament adopted amendments (339 votes\nto 293 with 28 abstentions) to the proposal for a directive of the\nEuropean Parliament and of the Council amending Directive\n2011/92/EU of the assessment of the effects of certain public and\nprivate projects on the environment.
\nThe matter had been sent back to the competent\ncommittee for re-consideration. The vote was put back to a later\nsession.
\nThe main amendments adopted in plenary were as\nfollows:
\nProjects: Parliament\nspecified that projects within the meaning of the directive meant\ninterventions in the natural surroundings and landscape including\nthose involving the research and extraction of mineral\nresources.
\nThe definition of development consent' was\nclarified to state that it means the decision of the competent\nauthority or authorities that entitles the developer\nto start the project.
\nShale gas: Members\nproposed to include in the list of made subject to environmental\nimpact assessment exploration and hydraulic fracturing extraction\nactivities for non-conventional hydrocarbons (shale gas and\noil, tight gas, coal bed methane), regardless of\nthe amount extracted.
\nConflict of interest: in\nthe light of experience acquired in certain Member States,\nParliament proposed to insert specific to avoid the conflict of\ninterest that can arise between the developer of a project that is\nsubject to environmental impact assessment and the competent\nauthorities. In particular, the competent authorities should not\nalso be the developer nor in any way be dependent on, linked to or\nsubordinate to the developer.
\nChecking reports: the\namendments proposed aim to ensure that the persons who check the\nenvironmental reports have, due to their qualifications and\nexperience, the necessary technical expertise to carry out the\ntasks set out in Directive 2011/92/EU in a scientifically objective\nmanner and in total independence from the developer and the\ncompetent authorities themselves.
\nPublic participation:\nMembers adopted amendments to ensure that the public would be\ninformed and consulted. The public should have the contact\ninformation of and easy and quick access to the authority or\nauthorities responsible for performing the duties arising from the\ndirective. Due attention must be paid to the comments made and\nopinions expressed by the public.
\nWith a view to strengthening public access and\ntransparency, a central portal providing timely\nenvironmental information with regard to the implementation of this\nDirective electronically should be made available in each Member\nState.
\nCross-border projects:\nMember States and neighbouring countries involved shall take\nall measures necessary to ensure that respective competent\nauthorities cooperate in order to provide jointly for one\nintegrated and coherent cross-border environmental impact\nassessment from an early planning stage.
\nIn the case of projects that could have cross-border\neffects on the environment, the Member States concerned should set\nup, on the basis of equal representation, a joint liaison\nbody responsible for dealing with all the stages in the\nprocedure. The consent of all the Member States concerned should be\nrequired for final authorisation of the project.
\nPenalties: Member States\nwill lay down the rules on penalties applicable to infringements of\nthe national provisions adopted pursuant to the directive. The\npenalties provided for must be effective, proportionate and\ndissuasive.

\nThe European Parliament adopted by 528 votes to 35\nvotes with 15 abstentions, the proposal for a directive of the\nEuropean Parliament and of the Council amending Directive\n2011/92/EU of the assessment of the effects of certain public and\nprivate projects on the environment.
\nThe matter had been sent back to the competent\ncommittee by the plenary session of 9 October 2013. Parliament\nadopted its position at first reading following the ordinary\nlegislative procedure. The amendments adopted in plenary are the\nresult of an agreement negotiated between the European Parliament\nand the Council.
\nAssessment of effects:\nit is clarified that Member States shall adopt\nall measures necessary to ensure that, before development\nconsent is given, projects likely to have\nsignificant effects on the environment by virtue, inter alia, of\ntheir nature, size or location are made subject to a requirement\nfor development consent and an assessment with regard to their\neffects on the environment.
\nThe environmental impact\nassessment means a process consisting of:
\n\n· \nthe preparation of\nan environmental impact assessment\nreport by the developer;
\n\n· \nthe carrying out of\nconsultations with the authorities likely to be affected by the\nproject;
\n\n· \nthe examination by\nthe competent authority of the information\npresented in the environmental impact assessment report and any\nsupplementary information provided, where necessary, by the\ndeveloper and any relevant information received through the\nconsultations
\n\n· \nthe reasoned conclusion by\nthe competent authority on the significant effects of the project\non the environment, taking into account the results of the\nexamination and, where appropriate, its own supplementary\nexamination; and
\n\n· \nthe integration of the\ncompetent authority's reasoned conclusion into any of the decisions\non givinig autorisation.
\nMember States may decide, on a case-by-case basis, not\nto apply this Directive to projects, or parts\nof projects, having defence as their sole\npurpose.
\nFactors to take into account: taking into account the direct and indirect\nsignificant effects of a project on the following factors: a)\npopulation and human health; b) biodiversity, with particular attention to\nprotected species and habitats; land, soil, water, air and climate\n(for example, gas emissions); d) material assets, cultural heritage\nand the landscape.
\nThe effects referred to shall\ninclude the expected effects deriving from the vulnerability of the\nproject to risks of major accidents and/or disasters that\nare relevant to the project concerned.
\nEvaluation\nreport: where an\nenvironmental impact assessment is\nrequired, the developer shall prepare and submit an environmental impact assessment report. The information to be provided by the developer\nshall include:
\n\n· \na description of the\nproject comprising information on the site, design, size and other\nrelevant features of the project;
\n\n· \na description of the likely\nsignificant effects of the project on the\nenvironment;
\n\n· \na description of the\nfeatures of the project and/or measures envisaged in order to\navoid, prevent or reduce and, if possible, offset likely\nsignificant adverse effects on the environment;
\n\n· \na description of the\nreasonable alternatives studied by the developer, which are\nrelevant to the project and its specific characteristics, and an\nindication of the main reasons for the option chosen, taking into\naccount the effects of the project on the\nenvironment.
\nWhere requested by the developer,\nthe competent authority, taking into account the information\nprovided by the developer, shall issue an opinion on\nthe scope and level of detail of the information\nto be included by the developer in the environmental impact assessment report. Member States may also require the competent\nauthorities to give an opinion, irrespective of whether the\ndeveloper so requests.
\nConsultation of the\nauthorities and public consultation: the authorities likely to be\nconcerned by the project by reason of their specific environmental\nresponsibilities or local and regional competences shall be given\nan opportunity to express their opinion on the information supplied\nby the developer and on the request for development\nconsent.
\nIn order to strengthen\ntransparency, the relevant environmental information shall be\nelectronically accessible to the public, through at least a\ncentral portal or easily accessible points of access, at the\nappropriate administrative level.
\nDecision to grant development consent: this shall include: a) the\nreasoned conclusion of the competent authority on the effects of\nthe project on the environment; b) any environmental\nconditions attached to the decision, a description of any features of the project and/or measures\nenvisaged to avoid, prevent or reduce and, if possible, offset\nsignificant adverse effects on the environment as well as, where appropriate, monitoring\nmeasures.
\nThe decision to refuse\ndevelopment consent shall state the main reasons for the\nrefusal.
\nConflicts of interest:\nParliament proposed specific standards to put an end to the\nphenomenon of conflict of interests.
\nIn cases where the competent\nauthority is also the developer, Member States should at least\nimplement, within their organisation of administrative competences,\nan appropriate separation between conflicting functions of\nthose authorities performing the duties arising from the\ndirective.
\nPenalties: Member States should lay down rules on penalties\napplicable to infringements of the national provisions adopted\npursuant to this Directive. The penalties thus provided for should\nbe effective, proportionate and dissuasive.
\nThe Council held a public policy debate on proposed\nchanges to the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive\n(Directive 2011/92/EU). The outcome of discussions will\nprovide guidance for further work on this proposal.
\nMinisters focused\non three questions prepared by the Presidency:
\n\n1. Do Member States agree with the proposal to introduce an\nobligation for a joint or coordinated assessment of a project\nunder one competent authority in all cases, where the\nobligation to assess its effects on the environment arises from\nvarious Union legislative instruments?
\n\n2. Do Member States consider that the scoping of the\nenvironmental impact assessment by the competent authority should\nbe mandatory in all cases as foreseen in Article 5 of\nthe proposal?
\n\n3. Do Member States think that the proposal for a system of\naccredited experts entitled to draw up an environmental\nreport is necessary to ensure the quality such reports?
\nDuring the debate,\ngeneral agreement was expressed on the objective to review the\nDirective in order to simplify the EIA procedures and to improve\ntheir quality. However, considerable concerns were raised with\nregard to the type of measures proposed by the Commission to\nachieve this aim.
\nMinisters expressed\nconcerns on the compatibility of the proposed provisions with the\ndifferent environmental assessment systems in Member States. In\nparticular, Member States pointed out the risk of increased\nadministrative burden and additional costs. Many delegations\nconsidered it not to be appropriate to establish a very\nprescriptive system at EU level. Most delegations were in favour of\nflexibility left to Member States to cater for specific situations\nand to adapt to the existing provisions.
\nThe Commission\nindicated that some change to the current systems was inevitable to\nimprove the EIA processes for the benefit of the users and the\nenvironment. It also showed its openness to Member States' concrete\nsuggestions to make progress on the proposal.

\nThe vote in the\nEuropean Parliaments Committee on the Environment, Public\nHealth and Food Safety is scheduled for July 2013.
\nPURPOSE: to ensure a high level of protection of the\nenvironment and human health through establishing common minimum\nrequirements on the assessment of the effects of certain public and\nprivate projects on the environment (EIA).
\nLEGISLATIVE ACT: Directive 2014/52/EU of the European\nParliament and of the Council amending Directive 2011/92/EU on the\nassessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on\nthe environment.
\nCONTENT: this Directive amends Directive 2011/92/EU in\norder to: (i) strengthen the quality of the environmental impact\nassessment procedure; (ii) align that procedure with the\nprinciples of smart regulation; and (iii) enhance coherence and\nsynergies with other Union legislation and policies, as well as\nstrategies and policies developed by Member States in areas of\nnational competence.
\nThe amendments adapt the Directive to the policy,\nlegal and technical contexts, which have evolved considerably\nin the last decade.
\nAssessment of impact:\nthe Directive clarifies that before development consent is\ngiven, projects likely to have significant effects on the\nenvironment must be made subject to a requirement for development\nconsent and an assessment with regard to their effects on the\nenvironment.
\nThe environmental impact assessment (EIA) is defined\nas a process consisting of:
\n\n· \nthe preparation of an environmental impact\nassessment report by the developer;
\n\n· \nthe carrying out of consultations with\nauthorities likely to be concerned by the project;
\n\n· \nthe examination by the competent\nauthority of the information presented in the environmental\nimpact assessment report and any supplementary information\nprovided, where necessary, by the developer, and any relevant\ninformation received through the consultations;
\n\n· \nthe reasoned conclusion by the competent\nauthority on the significant effects of the project on the\nenvironment; and
\n\n· \nthe integration of the competent authority's\nreasoned conclusion into decision on development consent.\n
\nMember States may decide, on a case-by-case basis, not\nto apply this Directive to projects, or parts of projects, having\ndefence as their sole purpose.
\nFactors to be taken into account: over the last decade, environmental issues, such as\nresource efficiency and sustainability, biodiversity protection,\nclimate change, and risks of accidents and disasters, have become\nmore important in policy making.
\nAccordingly, the directive provides that the EIA shall\nidentify, describe and assess, in the light of each\nindividual case, the direct and indirect significant effects of a\nproject on the following factors:
\n\n· \npopulation and human health;
\n\n· \nbiodiversity, with particular attention to\nspecies and habitats protected under Directive 92/43/EEC and\nDirective 2009/147/EC;
\n\n· \nland, soil, water, air and climate;
\n\n· \nmaterial assets, cultural heritage and the\nlandscape.
\nThe effects include the expected effects deriving from\nthe vulnerability of the project to risks of major accidents\nand/or disasters that are relevant to the project\nconcerned.
\nConsultation of interested parties: Member States must take measures to:
\n\n· \nensure that the authorities likely to be\nconcerned by the project are given an opportunity to express\ntheir opinion on the information supplied by the developer and on\nthe request for development consent;
\n\n· \nsee that the public is informed through at\nleast a central portal or easily accessible points of access,\nat the appropriate administrative level.
\nConflicts of interest:\nin accordance with the wishes of the European Parliament, the\nDirective establishes clear standards to put an end to conflicts of\ninterest.
\nThus, where the competent authority is also the\ndeveloper, Member States shall at least implement, within their\norganisation of administrative competences, an appropriate\nseparation between conflicting functions when performing the duties\narising from the Directive.
\nPenalties: the Directive\nrequires Member States to lay down rules on penalties applicable to\ninfringements of the national provisions adopted pursuant to the\nDirective.
\nENTRY INTO FORCE: 15/05/2014.
\nPURPOSE: to ensure a high level of protection of the\nenvironment and human health through establishing common minimum\nrequirements on the assessment of the effects of certain public and\nprivate projects on the environment (EIA).
\nPROPOSED ACT: Directive of the European Parliament and\nof the Council.
\nBACKGROUND: Directive 2011/92/EU (which codifies\nDirective 85/337/EEC and its three subsequent amendments) contains\na legal requirement to carry out an environmental impact assessment\n(EIA) of public or private projects likely to have significant\neffects on the environment, prior to their authorisation. The\nDirective has become a key instrument of environmental integration\nand has also brought environmental and socio-economic\nbenefits.
\nThe\nmid-term review of the 6th Environment Action Programme\nand the latest Commission report published in 2009 on the application and efficacy of\nthe EIA Directive (Directive 85/337/EEC) stressed the need for\nimproving the assessment of environmental impacts and to adapt\nthe Directive to the policy, legal and technical context which has\nevolved considerably.
\nThe general objective of the proposal is to adjust the\nprovisions of the codified EIA Directive (Directive 2011/92/EU), so\nas to correct shortcomings, reflect ongoing environmental and\nsocio-economic changes and challenges, and align with the\nprinciples of smart regulation. The revision of the EIA Directive\nsubscribes to the Europe 2020 strategy, in particular the priority\nof sustainable growth.
\nIMPACT ASSESSMENT: the impact assessment, which is\nsubmitted with the proposal, identified shortcomings in the current\nEIA legislation that lead to unsatisfactory implementation and\nsocio-economic costs in the implementation of the Directive. The\nshortcomings of the Directive can be grouped into three specific\nproblem areas: (1) the screening procedure, (2) the quality and\nanalysis of the EIA and (3) the risks of inconsistencies within the\nEIA process itself and in relation to other legislation.
\nThe IA assessed a number of policy options with the\naim of identifying cost-effective measures to address these\nproblems.
\nNine of the twelve amendments analysed are expected to\nprovide significant environmental and socio-economic benefits\nwithout additional administrative costs; moderate savings are also\nexpected.
\n\n· \nTwo amendments (assessment of alternatives and\nmonitoring) are expected to provide high environmental and\nsocio-economic benefits at moderate costs for developers and with\nlimited or negligible costs for public authorities.
\n\n· \nOne amendment (adaptation of the EIA to new\nchallenges) is expected to provide high benefits at moderate to\nhigh costs for developers and public authorities.
\nIn the long term, the significant environmental and\nsocio-economic benefits and the moderate savings associated with\nthe proposed amendments are likely to exceed the administrative\ncosts.
\nLEGAL BASIS: Article 192(1) of the Treaty on the\nFunctioning of the European Union.
\nCONTENT: the proposal for the amendment of Directive\n2011/92/EU aims to : (i) strengthen the provisions concerning\nthe quality of the EIA with the aim of achieving a high level of\nenvironmental protection; (ii) enhance policy coherence and\nsynergies with other EU law instruments and (iii) simplify\nprocedures, with a view to reducing unnecessary administrative\nburdens. The main amendments are as follows:
\n\n· \nInitial screening: it is proposed to clarify the screening\nprocedure, by modifying the criteria of Annex III and\nspecifying the content and justification of screening decisions.\nThese amendments would ensure that EIAs are carried out only for\nprojects that would have significant environmental effects,\navoiding unnecessary administrative burden for small-scale\nprojects.
\n\n· \nQuality and analysis of the\nEIA: it is proposed to: (i) introduce\namendments to reinforce the quality of the process (i.e.\nmandatory scoping and quality control of EIA information), (ii)\nspecify the content of the EIA report (mandatory assessment\nof reasonable alternatives, justification of final decisions,\nmandatory post-EIA monitoring of significant adverse effects) and\n(iii) adapt the EIA to challenges (i.e. biodiversity,\nclimate change, disaster risks, availability of natural\nresources).
\n\n· \nRisk of inconsistencies: it is proposed to: (i) specify the\ntime-frames for the main stages required by the Directive\n(public consultation, screening decision, final EIA decision) and\n(ii) introduce a mechanism, a kind of EIA one-stop shop to\nensure coordination or joint operation of the EIA with the\nenvironmental assessments required under other relevant EU\nlegislation, e.g. Directives 2010/75/EU, 92/43/EEC,\n2001/42/EC.
\nBUDGETARY IMPLICATIONS: the proposal has no\nimplications for the EU budget.
\nDELEGATED ACTS: the proposal contains provisions\nempowering the Commission to adopt delegated acts in accordance\nwith Article 290 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European\nUnion.
\nThe Council held a public policy debate on proposed\nchanges to the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) Directive\n(Directive 2011/92/EU). The outcome of discussions will\nprovide guidance for further work on this proposal.

\n\n3. Do Member States think that the proposal for a system of\naccredited experts entitled to draw up an environmental\nreport is necessary to ensure the quality such reports?
\nDuring the debate,\ngeneral agreement was expressed on the objective to review the\nDirective in order to simplify the EIA procedures and to improve\ntheir quality. However, considerable concerns were raised with\nregard to the type of measures proposed by the Commission to\nachieve this aim.

\nThe vote in the\nEuropean Parliaments Committee on the Environment, Public\nHealth and Food Safety is scheduled for July 2013.
\nThe Committee on the Environment, Public Health and\nFood Safety adopted the report by Andrea ZANONI (ADLE, IT) on the\nproposal for a directive of the European Parliament and of the\nCouncil amending Directive 2011/92/EU of the assessment of the\neffects of certain public and private projects on the\nenvironment.
\nThe committee recommends that Parliaments\nposition adopted in first reading following the ordinary\nlegislative procedure should amend the Commission proposal as\nfollows:
\nProjects: the report\nstates that projects must include: (1) the execution of\nconstruction works, or of other installations or\nschemes, including demolition works directly linked to the\nexecution of construction works; (2) other interventions in the\nnatural surroundings and landscape including those involving the\nresearch and extraction of mineral\nresources.
\nConflicts of interest:\nMembers consider that experience acquired in a number of Member\nStates has shown that specific rules need to be introduced\nto put an end to the issue of conflicts of interest, in order to\nensure that the aim of the environmental impact assessment\nprocedure is effectively achieved. Accordingly, the competent\nauthorities charged with carrying out assessments must not, under\nany circumstances, overlap with developers nor be dependent on or\nsubordinate to them.
\nDrafting and verification of reports: an amendment states that environmental reports must\nbe prepared by qualified and technically competent\nexperts and/or committees of national experts whose\nnames shall be made public.
\nThe experts must provide appropriate guarantees of\ncompetence and impartiality when verifying environmental\nreports. These experts shall be responsible for the\nenvironmental impact assessments they conduct or supervise or on\nwhich they have issued a positive or negative opinion.
\nPublic participation:\nthe public shall have the right to request an environmental\nimpact assessment of a given project considered to be a matter of\nconcern, to that end employing active participation arrangements\ninvolving residents, local authorities, or NGOs in particular. The\nreport adds new clauses regarding access to information on revision\nor amendment of an environmental impact report as well as on\nmeasures regarding mitigation or compensation.
\nWith a view to strengthening access and transparency,\na central portal providing timely environmental information\nelectronically should be made available in each Member\nState.
\nCross-border projects:\nMember States and neighbouring countries involved shall\ntake all measures necessary to ensure that respective\ncompetent authorities cooperate in order to provide jointly\nfor one integrated and coherent cross-border\nenvironmental impact assessment from an early planning stage, in\naccordance with applicable legislation on\nUnion co-funding.
\nMonitoring and measures on mitigation and\ncompensation: the amended text\nspecifies that Member States shall take the necessary measures to\nprovide that projects are constructed and operated in accordance\nwith the following principles:
\n\n· \nall appropriate preventive measures are taken\nagainst pollution and no significant pollution is\ncaused;
\n\n· \nthe best available techniques are applied and\nnatural resources and energy are used efficiently;
\n\n· \nwaste generation is prevented and, where waste\nis generated, it is prepared for re-use, recycled,\nrecovered;
\n\n· \nthe necessary measures are taken to prevent\naccidents and limit their consequences;
\n\n· \nthe necessary measures are taken upon definitive\ncessation of activities to avoid any risk of pollution and return\nthe site of operation to a satisfactory state.
\nWhere monitoring indicates that mitigation or\ncompensation measures are not sufficient or unforeseen significant\nadverse environmental effects are observed, the competent authority\nshall lay down corrective mitigation or compensation\nmeasures in accordance with the relevant\nlegislation.
\nPenalties: based on\nexperience, to ensure the harmonised and effective application of\nthe Directive, the legal systems of Member States need to provide\nfor effective and dissuasive penalties where national provisions\nare infringed, in particular with regard to cases of conflict of\ninterest or corruption.
\nShale gas: the report\nproposes to include the exploration, evaluation and extraction of\ncrude oil and/or natural gas trapped in gas-bearing strata of shale\nin Annex I of the directive regarding projects that must be made\nsubject to an assessment.
\nThe European Parliament adopted amendments (339 votes\nto 293 with 28 abstentions) to the proposal for a directive of the\nEuropean Parliament and of the Council amending Directive\n2011/92/EU of the assessment of the effects of certain public and\nprivate projects on the environment.
\nThe matter had been sent back to the competent\ncommittee for re-consideration. The vote was put back to a later\nsession.
\nThe main amendments adopted in plenary were as\nfollows:
\nProjects: Parliament\nspecified that projects within the meaning of the directive meant\ninterventions in the natural surroundings and landscape including\nthose involving the research and extraction of mineral\nresources.
\nThe definition of development consent' was\nclarified to state that it means the decision of the competent\nauthority or authorities that entitles the developer\nto start the project.
\nShale gas: Members\nproposed to include in the list of made subject to environmental\nimpact assessment exploration and hydraulic fracturing extraction\nactivities for non-conventional hydrocarbons (shale gas and\noil, tight gas, coal bed methane), regardless of\nthe amount extracted.
\nConflict of interest: in\nthe light of experience acquired in certain Member States,\nParliament proposed to insert specific to avoid the conflict of\ninterest that can arise between the developer of a project that is\nsubject to environmental impact assessment and the competent\nauthorities. In particular, the competent authorities should not\nalso be the developer nor in any way be dependent on, linked to or\nsubordinate to the developer.
\nChecking reports: the\namendments proposed aim to ensure that the persons who check the\nenvironmental reports have, due to their qualifications and\nexperience, the necessary technical expertise to carry out the\ntasks set out in Directive 2011/92/EU in a scientifically objective\nmanner and in total independence from the developer and the\ncompetent authorities themselves.
\nPublic participation:\nMembers adopted amendments to ensure that the public would be\ninformed and consulted. The public should have the contact\ninformation of and easy and quick access to the authority or\nauthorities responsible for performing the duties arising from the\ndirective. Due attention must be paid to the comments made and\nopinions expressed by the public.
\nWith a view to strengthening public access and\ntransparency, a central portal providing timely\nenvironmental information with regard to the implementation of this\nDirective electronically should be made available in each Member\nState.
\nCross-border projects:\nMember States and neighbouring countries involved shall take\nall measures necessary to ensure that respective competent\nauthorities cooperate in order to provide jointly for one\nintegrated and coherent cross-border environmental impact\nassessment from an early planning stage.
\nIn the case of projects that could have cross-border\neffects on the environment, the Member States concerned should set\nup, on the basis of equal representation, a joint liaison\nbody responsible for dealing with all the stages in the\nprocedure. The consent of all the Member States concerned should be\nrequired for final authorisation of the project.
\nPenalties: Member States\nwill lay down the rules on penalties applicable to infringements of\nthe national provisions adopted pursuant to the directive. The\npenalties provided for must be effective, proportionate and\ndissuasive.
\nThe European Parliament adopted by 528 votes to 35\nvotes with 15 abstentions, the proposal for a directive of the\nEuropean Parliament and of the Council amending Directive\n2011/92/EU of the assessment of the effects of certain public and\nprivate projects on the environment.
\nThe matter had been sent back to the competent\ncommittee by the plenary session of 9 October 2013. Parliament\nadopted its position at first reading following the ordinary\nlegislative procedure. The amendments adopted in plenary are the\nresult of an agreement negotiated between the European Parliament\nand the Council.
\nAssessment of effects:\nit is clarified that Member States shall adopt\nall measures necessary to ensure that, before development\nconsent is given, projects likely to have\nsignificant effects on the environment by virtue, inter alia, of\ntheir nature, size or location are made subject to a requirement\nfor development consent and an assessment with regard to their\neffects on the environment.
\nThe environmental impact\nassessment means a process consisting of:
\n\n· \nthe preparation of\nan environmental impact assessment\nreport by the developer;
\n\n· \nthe carrying out of\nconsultations with the authorities likely to be affected by the\nproject;
\n\n· \nthe examination by\nthe competent authority of the information\npresented in the environmental impact assessment report and any\nsupplementary information provided, where necessary, by the\ndeveloper and any relevant information received through the\nconsultations
\n\n· \nthe reasoned conclusion by\nthe competent authority on the significant effects of the project\non the environment, taking into account the results of the\nexamination and, where appropriate, its own supplementary\nexamination; and
\n\n· \nthe integration of the\ncompetent authority's reasoned conclusion into any of the decisions\non givinig autorisation.
\nMember States may decide, on a case-by-case basis, not\nto apply this Directive to projects, or parts\nof projects, having defence as their sole\npurpose.
\nFactors to take into account: taking into account the direct and indirect\nsignificant effects of a project on the following factors: a)\npopulation and human health; b) biodiversity, with particular attention to\nprotected species and habitats; land, soil, water, air and climate\n(for example, gas emissions); d) material assets, cultural heritage\nand the landscape.
\nThe effects referred to shall\ninclude the expected effects deriving from the vulnerability of the\nproject to risks of major accidents and/or disasters that\nare relevant to the project concerned.
\nEvaluation\nreport: where an\nenvironmental impact assessment is\nrequired, the developer shall prepare and submit an environmental impact assessment report. The information to be provided by the developer\nshall include:
\n\n· \na description of the\nproject comprising information on the site, design, size and other\nrelevant features of the project;
\n\n· \na description of the likely\nsignificant effects of the project on the\nenvironment;
\n\n· \na description of the\nfeatures of the project and/or measures envisaged in order to\navoid, prevent or reduce and, if possible, offset likely\nsignificant adverse effects on the environment;
\n\n· \na description of the\nreasonable alternatives studied by the developer, which are\nrelevant to the project and its specific characteristics, and an\nindication of the main reasons for the option chosen, taking into\naccount the effects of the project on the\nenvironment.
\nWhere requested by the developer,\nthe competent authority, taking into account the information\nprovided by the developer, shall issue an opinion on\nthe scope and level of detail of the information\nto be included by the developer in the environmental impact assessment report. Member States may also require the competent\nauthorities to give an opinion, irrespective of whether the\ndeveloper so requests.
\nConsultation of the\nauthorities and public consultation: the authorities likely to be\nconcerned by the project by reason of their specific environmental\nresponsibilities or local and regional competences shall be given\nan opportunity to express their opinion on the information supplied\nby the developer and on the request for development\nconsent.
\nIn order to strengthen\ntransparency, the relevant environmental information shall be\nelectronically accessible to the public, through at least a\ncentral portal or easily accessible points of access, at the\nappropriate administrative level.
\nDecision to grant development consent: this shall include: a) the\nreasoned conclusion of the competent authority on the effects of\nthe project on the environment; b) any environmental\nconditions attached to the decision, a description of any features of the project and/or measures\nenvisaged to avoid, prevent or reduce and, if possible, offset\nsignificant adverse effects on the environment as well as, where appropriate, monitoring\nmeasures.
\nThe decision to refuse\ndevelopment consent shall state the main reasons for the\nrefusal.
\nConflicts of interest:\nParliament proposed specific standards to put an end to the\nphenomenon of conflict of interests.
\nIn cases where the competent\nauthority is also the developer, Member States should at least\nimplement, within their organisation of administrative competences,\nan appropriate separation between conflicting functions of\nthose authorities performing the duties arising from the\ndirective.
\nPenalties: Member States should lay down rules on penalties\napplicable to infringements of the national provisions adopted\npursuant to this Directive. The penalties thus provided for should\nbe effective, proportionate and dissuasive.
\nPURPOSE: to ensure a high level of protection of the\nenvironment and human health through establishing common minimum\nrequirements on the assessment of the effects of certain public and\nprivate projects on the environment (EIA).
\nLEGISLATIVE ACT: Directive 2014/52/EU of the European\nParliament and of the Council amending Directive 2011/92/EU on the\nassessment of the effects of certain public and private projects on\nthe environment.
