● To check environmental implications
on environmental variables (air,
ground water quality, soil quality etc)
in that particular area.
● Help in measure and prediction of the
impact of the project.
● Analyse the impact and decision
making.
● Monitoring the project.
OBJECTIVE
● The purpose of
an EIA is to
determine the
potential

social, and
health effects of
proposed
development.
History of EIA
