EIA is a mandatory requirement meant to meet some governmental regulations before the commencement of the project. This begins by carryingout baseline studies (often conducted by a team of experts of related disciplines) on those aspects of the physical, biological and social environment at the project site  that could be affected by the  project activities under consideration.

 All is aimed at identifying potential environmental impacts of the project(or an investment) early in the design stage, predicting the effects and evaluating and interpreting the impacts; and to identify ways of improving the intervention by preventing, minimising or mitigating adverse environmental impacts of the proposed project  or compensating for the adverse environmental effects.

In this analysis the various impacts on the environment must be well spelled out between significant positive and negative impacts, direct and indirect impacts, immediate(short-term) and long-term impacts.

EIAs have resulted in rejection of development projects which are of high environmental impacts while others have led to the project modification and some have led to proposing alternative development projects of lesser impacts.
