Environmental Impact Statement
An Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is a document required by law that evaluates the potential effects of a proposed project on the environment. It assesses factors like air and water quality, wildlife, and natural resources, considering both positive and negative impacts. The EIS process allows stakeholders, including the public, to understand the implications of a project and provides a basis for decision-making. Ultimately, it aims to ensure that environmental considerations are integrated into planning and development, promoting sustainable practices and informed choices.
