Environmental Review Process

The environmental review process is a formal assessment used to evaluate how a proposed project might impact the environment. It ensures that potential effects—like pollution, habitat disruption, or resource use—are identified and addressed before approval. This process typically involves analyzing plans, consulting with experts and the public, and exploring ways to minimize negative effects. Its goal is to promote responsible decision-making, balancing development needs with environmental protection, and ensuring that stakeholders are informed and involved throughout the project’s planning stages.
