the IEE is an initial environmental examination, and it is a preliminary small study to see if a project harms the environment while the EIA is a full assessment of the effects of the project on the environment
Why IEE IS A RELATIVELY SHORT AND SIMPLE STUDY AND EIA IS A MORE COMPLEX AND DETAILED STUDY OF ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT.
An experienced Environmental Appraiser would prescribe IEE (Initial Environmental Evaluation) exercise, when impacts from proposed Project are, apparantly, not significant and prefer to prescribe EIA (Environmental Impact Assessment) exercise based on higher impact potential.
If the environmental impacts of the projects are not very significant then the Project Proponent may be asked to do an Initial Environmental Examination, which is a relatively short and simple study. However, if the potential impacts appear to be more significant the Project Proponent may be asked to do an Environmental Impact Assessment, which is a more detailed and comprehensive study of environmental impacts.
