WHEN IS ENVIRONMENTAL
IMPACT ASSESSMENT REQUIRED?
Screening is a procedure used to determine whether a proposed project is
likely to have significant effects on the environment.
It should normally take place at an early stage in the design of the project.
However, it can also occur after a planning application has been made or
even after an appeal has been made.
They are empowered to make directions in relation to the need for Environmental
Impact Assessment.
Where the local planning authority’s opinion is that Environmental Impact Assessment
is required, or where a local planning authority fails to adopt a screening opinion within
3 weeks (or within an extended period agreed in writing with the person making the
request), the person who requested the screening opinion of the local planning
authority may request to make a screening direction.
