ABSTRACT

Among largely industrial and agricultural categories, Schedule 2 includes

infrastructure projects involving industrial estates and urban development projects

exceeding 0.5 hectares.

For our purposes, it is the nature of the required assessment that is

important. This is set out at Schedule 4 of the regulations and specifically includes the

description of the architectural and archaeological heritage affected by such a

development, and the assessment of direct, indirect, secondary, cumulative, short-,

medium-and long-term, permanent and temporary, positive and negative impacts.
