The document discusses environmental impact assessment (EIA), which is defined as systematically identifying and evaluating potential environmental impacts of proposed projects. An ideal EIA system applies to all projects with significant environmental effects, compares alternatives, and includes public participation and enforcement. The goals of EIA are to conserve resources, minimize waste, recover byproducts, efficiently use equipment, and enable sustainable development.
EIA is a process of evaluating the likely environmental impacts of a proposed project or development, taking into account inter-related socio-economic, cultural and human-health impacts, both beneficial and adverse.
EIA 1994 and the further amendments are explained i.e. 2006 and 2020.
This chapter describes some of the simplest techniques and methods for EIA, and gives information to
help choose the most appropriate method for a given situation.
This presentation was delivered as part of ICEM and PACT training course on Strategic Environmental Assessments in the context of energy development in the Greater Mekong Subregion in May 2016.

Developing Guidelines for Public Participation on Environmental Impact Assess...Ethical Sector
On 24 February 2016, MCRB and PACT MPE (Mekong Partnership for Environment) co-organised a discussion in Yangon of public participation in EIA with the objectives of sharing experience which could be used to guide development of regional guidelines on public participation in EIA for the Mekong region (Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, and Vietnam) as well as planned public participation guidelines for the implementation of Myanmar’s new EIA procedures.
U Than Aye, (Yangon office of ECD, MOECAF) gave a presentation on the public participation provisions of the Myanmar government’s EIA Procedures which were adopted on 29 December 2015, highlighting the requirements for consultation and disclosure at different stages of the EIA and Initial Environmental Examination (IEE) processes; and the resource constraints and faced by MOECAF.
a general term that can reflect various types of evaluations intended to identify environmental compliance and management system implementation gaps, along with related corrective actions.
In this way they perform an analogous (similar) function to financial audits.

최윤제 (Yunjey Choi)는 고려대학교에서 컴퓨터공학을 전공하였으며, 현재는 석사과정으로 Machine Learning을 공부하고 있는 학생이다. 코딩을 좋아하며 이해한 것을 다른 사람들에게 공유하는 것을 좋아한다. 1년 간 TensorFlow를 사용하여 Deep Learning을 공부하였고 현재는 PyTorch를 사용하여 Generative Adversarial Network를 공부하고 있다. TensorFlow로 여러 논문들을 구현, PyTorch Tutorial을 만들어 Github에 공개한 이력을 갖고 있다.
개요:
Generative Adversarial Network(GAN)은 2014년 Ian Goodfellow에 의해 처음으로 제안되었으며, 적대적 학습을 통해 실제 데이터의 분포를 추정하는 생성 모델입니다. 최근 들어 GAN은 가장 인기있는 연구 분야로 떠오르고 있고 하루에도 수 많은 관련 논문들이 쏟아져 나오고 있습니다.
수 없이 쏟아져 나오고 있는 GAN 논문들을 다 읽기가 힘드신가요? 괜찮습니다. 기본적인 GAN만 완벽하게 이해한다면 새로 나오는 논문들도 쉽게 이해할 수 있습니다.
이번 발표를 통해 제가 GAN에 대해 알고 있는 모든 것들을 전달해드리고자 합니다. GAN을 아예 모르시는 분들, GAN에 대한 이론적인 내용이 궁금하셨던 분들, GAN을 어떻게 활용할 수 있을지 궁금하셨던 분들이 발표를 들으면 좋을 것 같습니다.

What are the aspects and impacts of Environmental Impact Assessment_.pdfJagriti Agarwal
It is mandatory of projects to get environment clearance from the MOEFCC for certain categories in order to be set up. The categories of projects are specified in the Schedule of the EIA notification and include industries like mining, thermal power plants, river valley projects, and many more.
Environmental conservation is becoming increasingly important given the current scenario of booming industries in India. Businesses more than ever before, are expected to behave in a sustainable manner through improved environmental assessment and management. A sustainable business results in value creation for the company, its employees, customers, shareholders and the society as a whole. Therefore, before undertaking any project or major activity, it is important for you to undergo Environmental Impact Assessment.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

1. ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT
ASSESSMENT
Prepared by
Prof. B. Mohanty
Department of Civil Engineering
SALITER, Ahmedabad
2. Introduction…
Defined as the systematic identification and
evaluation of potential impacts of proposed
projects, plans or actions on physical,
chemical, biological, cultural and socio-
economic components of environment.
3. EIA planning tool, helps planner in predicting
future impacts of different developments.
EIA must be conducted for projects like
highways, airports, canals, dams, power plants
etc. which disturb environment.
Applicable for developmental activities which
involves plans, programmes and policies.
4. Need of EIA
When a project undertaken it disturb
environmental equilibrium.
To maintain quality of environment it is essential
to study impacts of project on environment.
This also suggest remedial measures for
development of projects.
5. An ideal EIA system…
Apply to all projects that have a significant
environmental effects.
Compare alternatives of proposed effect,
management techniques, mitigation measures.
Preparation of EIS (Environmental Impact
Statement).
Include broad public participation and
administrative review procedure.
6. Be timed to provide information for decision
making.
Be enforceable.
Include monitoring and feedback procedures.
7.
8. Goals of EIA
Resources conservation
Waste minimization
Recovery of by product
Efficient use of equipments
Sustainable development
9. Methodology of EIA
Organizing the job
Performing the assessment
Writing the EIS
Review of EIS
10.
11. Organizing the job
Interdisciplinary team is constituted to conduct
analysis of impacts on environment.
Consists of a group of geologists, agronomists,
chemists, ecologists, hydrologists, engineers, etc.
Decide whether project is required or not.
12. Performing the assessment
Site visit
Identification and evaluation
Discussion of alternatives
Preparation of checklist
Measurement of environmental impact due to
project
13. Preparation of EIS
EIS is conclusion of EIA
It is a written statement to ensure that policies and
goals of NEPA (National Environment Policy Act)
included in ongoing project.
It contains following items:
1. Description of site
2. Description of proposed project, purpose of action,
goals and objectives.
3. Environmental impact of proposed project
14. 4. Alternatives of activity
5. Relationship of proposed activity to the existing
land use plans
6. Relationship between local short term uses and
long term productivity of resources involved
7. Indentifying measures that can be taken in order
to minimize adverse effects
8. Incorporating the modifications in proposed
project
15. Review of EIS
After completion of EIA report, public must be
informed and consulted on proposed project.
Anyone likely to be affected by the project is
entitled to have access to the executive summary
of the EIA.
16. The affected person may include:
Bonafide local residents
Local associations
Environmental groups active in area
Other person located at project sites
They have to give suggestion
One month given for public inspection
After final review decision is taken either
approve or reject of proposed project.
17. EIA in India
Formal legislation for EIA. It has been enacted
by making an amendment in the Environment
Protection Act 1986.
Limited involvement of public and government
agencies in the initial phases.
No provision in place to cover landscape and
visual impacts in the Indian EIA regulations.
18. Earlier scoping was done by consultant or
proponent with an inclination towards meeting
pollution control requirements, rather than
addressing the full range of potential
environmental.
Most reports in English and not in the local
language. In some case, executive summary is
translated into local language.
19. Limitations of EIA
1. Should undertaken at policy and planning level
rather than the project level.
2. Possible alternatives is often small
3. There is no criteria to decide what types of
projects undergo EIA. Because many projects
do not require in depth EIA.
4. Lack of comprehensive environmental
information, base limitations of time,
manpower, financial resources.
20. 5. More research and development of improved
methodologies required to overcome limitations
relating in data.
6. EIA report too academic, bureaucratic and
lengthy. Difficult to understand for common
people.
7. In actual, EIA ends immediately after project
clearance, no follow up taken.
21. Critical issues in EIA guidelines
Can local environment cope with additional
waste and pollution that the project will
produce?
Will project location conflict with nearby land
use?
Can project operates safely without serious risk
of accidents or long term health hazards?
Is there sufficient infrastructure to support the
project?
22. How much resources will project consume and
are adequate supplies of these resources
available?
What kind of human resources will it require or
replace and what will be its social impacts?
What damage will it cause to national/regional
assets such as natural resources, tourist areas or
historic or cultural sites etc?
23.
24. Introduction
Main aim to quantify environmental
performance and position of an
industry/organization.
It is done for improving performance and
position.
Act as tool for achieving sustainable
development.
25. According to USEPA, EA is a systematic,
documented, periodic and objective review by a
regulated entity of facility operations and
practices related to meeting environmental
requirements.
Govt. of India march 13, 1992 made mandatory
for all industries to provide annual
environmental audit reports of their operations.
26. EA provide answers to the following questions:
What are we doing ? Are we compliance with
govt. regulations, guidelines, code of practice,
permit conditions ?
Can we do it better ? Are there non regulated
areas where operations can be improved to
minimize the impact on environment ?
27. Components of EA
I. Assessment :
Provides expert judgment/opinion on hazards,
associated risks and management and control
measures.
It provides basis for recommendations to
improve the organization’s management
systems and environmental performance.
28. II. Verification :
It determines and document performance by
evaluating the application of and adherence to
policies and procedures.
It certifies validity of data and reports, evaluates
the effectiveness of management systems.
29. Basic steps in audit process
Pre-audit activities
Audit process
Post audit activities
30. Types of EA
Compliance audit
Environmental management audit
Due diligence audit
Supplier audits
Programmes audit
Single issues audits
Risk definition or hazard identification
31. Benefits of auditing
Ensuring compliance, not only with
laws, regulations but also with company policies
and requirements of environment.
Enabling environmental problems and risks to
be anticipated and responses planned.
Demonstrate organization impact on
environment.
32. Increase management and employee awareness
of environmental issues.
More efficient resources use and financial
savings.
Promotes “Good Practice”.
Providing better private and public image and
security to top management.
