Scoping. Prepare and distribute all required project reports, including an Expanded Project Proposal (EPP) or Scoping Summary Memorandum (SSM), as appropriate.
Scoping. Parties shall ensure that key environmental and any associated impacts, such as economic, social, cultural and human health impacts, including potential cumulative impacts and impacts in areas within national jurisdiction, as well as alternatives to the planned activity, if any, to be included in the environmental impact assessments that shall be conducted under this Part, are identified. The scope shall be defined by using the best available science and scientific information and, where available, relevant traditional knowledge of Indigenous Peoples and local communities;
Scoping. The process of deciding the scope and level of detail of an SA, including the sustainability effects and options which need to be considered, the assessment methods to be used, and the structure and contents of the SA Report. Significant Effect – Effects which are significant in the context of the Plan. (Annex II of the SEA Directive gives criteria for determining the likely environmental significance of effects).
Scoping. The identification and prioritization of relevant issues to focus on during an EIA; the decision of what physical works to included as a part of the proposed development (scope of development), and the timeline and geographical limits of issues being assessed (scope of assessment).
Scoping. If the responsible official determines, based on scoping, that it is uncertain whether the proposed action may have a significant effect on the environment, prepare an EA. If the responsible official determines, based on scoping, that the proposed action may have a significant environmental effect, prepare an EIS.
Scoping. This subtask has been completed.
Scoping. Scoping is the distribution or assignment of work on a new project or contract. BIW will continue the scoping of work consistent with past practice. Any requested variations in scoping will be subject to the joint agreement process at Article 39. All the work scope will remain within the bargaining unit.
Scoping. Prior to the assessment, it is important to have an initial discussion to identify the goals that to the City of Xxxxx attempts to achieve. Once knowing the City of Xxxxx'x priorities and desired outcomes will strengthen the overall value of the work performed. During this initial discussion, BPL requests that critical information be provided to facilitate communication, determine if the testing to be performed is appropriate in the given scenario, and obtain formal authorization for all activities to be performed prior to execution.
Scoping. Prepare a scoping study identifying key issues associated with the project and providing information about (a) the general environmental settings of the project area, particularly considering the sensitivities of the project setting and (b) potential impacts of the project and the characteristics of the impacts, magnitude, distribution, sensitive receptors and affected groups, and their duration. This study should (a) assess alternatives for the project considering costs and benefits in terms of financial, social, and environmental issues, and (b) review any available historical environmental baseline data and identify significant gaps. The gap analysis should identify the new monitoring of environmental conditions that will be required.
Scoping. The primary purpose of this step is to resolve and agree on specific objectives of the project. This Phase I Agreement addresses these issues. Components of this step include: ! Stakeholders identified and involved; ! Scope and level of detail resolved in consideration of objectives, funding and criticality; ! roles and responsibilities of participants defined; ! baseline and target watershed performance agreed upon; ! critical issues defined and agreed on; and ! development of a Watershed QMP. As part of this scoping step, the key elements of this Phase I Agreement will be incorporated into the Watershed QMP.
