Public Consultation in Environmental Assessments 1997-2000 : Findings from the Third Environmental Assessment Review
According to internal and external
reviews of the public consultation process, public
consultations have increasingly become a standard part of
the environmental assessment process in Bank operations.
However, the current challenge for Bank operations focuses
on the quality of public consultations and the extent to
which they influence project design and effect project
impact. In an attempt to evaluate how projects were meeting
this challenge, the Third Review assessed whether
qualitative and quantitative improvements in EA public
consultations had taken place for Category A and B
Bank-financed projects (A project is classified as Category
A if it is "likely to have significant adverse
environmental impacts that are sensitive, diverse or
unprecedented." On the other hand, a project is
classified as Category B if it will not have significantly
adverse impacts on human populations or environmentally
important areas including wetlands, forests, grasslands, and
other natural habitats.) In order to provide guidance for
improving public consultation in future EA processes, the
review also identified challenges and best practices, and
briefly examined whether these improvements were similarly
reflected in the work of financial intermediaries and
regional and sectoral environmental assessments (SEAs).
