The EDO is currently preparing a series of science fact sheets on topics related to the environmental planning and development assessment process. The fact sheets will be written in plain English and in a format similar to the EDO's legal fact sheets. Each fact sheet will be reviewed by members of the Expert Register.
The aim of the science fact sheets is to provide clear and relevant information to enable individuals and community groups to better participate in the environmental planning and development assessment process. The fact sheets will complement the advice work of the scientific assessment and advice service.
The science fact sheets will cover a range of topics, including:
- How to write submissions to government agencies on development proposals.
- How to review a flora and fauna assessment.
- How to review a water quality assessment.
- How to review a groundwater assessment.
- How to review an air quality assessment.
- How to review an economic impact assessment.
- How to calculate the greenhouse gas emissions associated with development proposals, with a focus on coal mines.
Other topics will also be covered. The science fact sheets will be placed here as they are finalised.
