5 BREXIT & EIA in the UK UK has today Transposed 2014 Directive amendment, but future legal challenges (>April 2019) likely to end with UK Courts UK EIA Regulations will be covered in the forthcoming Great Repeal Bill Future amendments to EIA Directive very unlikely to directly apply in UK In future, UK EIA Regulations will undergo a performance review at least every 5 years
6 EIA Directive Context
7 Revisions to EU EIA Directive ( ) EIA Directive Time-limit for transposition 85/337/EEC 3 July /11/EC Amendment 14 March /35/EC Amendment 25 June /31/EC Amendment 25 June /92/EU Consolidation No transposition required 2014/52/EU Amendment 16 May 2017
8 2014/52/EU European Commission Goals Core Rule: Maintain the level of environmental protection established within the existing EIA Directive Three Aims to drive Effective EIA: - Harmonisation between Member States - Efficiency to streamline multiple EU assessments & reduce burdens - Quality moving away from a purely procedural focus in EIA laws Also: Improve consideration of Climate Change and Biodiversity in EIA
9 2014/52/EU Significant Scale of Change
10 Transposition EU Progress EU Member States Complete: Bulgaria, (Poland), Luxembourg, Cyprus, Slovenia 16 May 2017: UK, Sweden, Netherlands, (Poland) Later: Portugal UVP Journal on: Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Portugal, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, UK

12 What Did Change? The UK s EIA Regulations:
13 Thank You Josh Fothergill
14 Main Changes via 2014/52/EU A definition of EIA Joint / Co-ordinated HD Time limits Screening Revisions New / revised topics Scoping Revisions Competent Experts ES Content Examination of ES and sufficient expertise in CA Decision Notice Monitoring Penalties & Conflict Interest Transitional arrangements
15 UK EIA Transposition Consultations
16 Transposing 2014/52/EU into UK EIA Regimes Changes in two main formats: - Areas with little discretion - Areas where Member States have some flexibility Also: Opportunity for wider changes and improvements to both Regulations and Practice
17 UK Transposition Consultations Scotland: T&CP and other EIA regimes Oct 16 Wales: T&CP EIA (Wales) regime Nov 16 Defra & others: various EIA Regimes Jan 17 DCLG: T&CP & DCO Feb 17 Northern Ireland: Planning Feb 17 DfT: various EIA regimes Mar 17 BEIS: Electricity Mar 17 Most of Regulations have gone live Today
18 IEMA Transposition Activity IEMA responded to all UK EIA Consultations Consultation responses across 22 EIA Regulatory Regimes 10 August March 2017 Scotland > Wales > Defra (et al) > DCLG > N. Ireland > DFT > BEIS Involved with process since 2008 Broad and on-going member engagement since 2010 Preparatory webinars and guidance since 2014
19 Member views on Consultations Challenges & Opportunities
20 EIA Practice Overview Much of this is already good practice Avoid undue burden An opportunity to streamline How will x,y,z work in practice?
21 Consultation Concerns Three main concerns: - EIA Experts - LPA Expertise - ES based on scoping opinion Also: A key Opportunity Increased interest in EIA provides window to drive more proportionate approach
22 The Town & Country Planning (EIA) Regulations 2017
23 SI available online now:
24 Regulations 2 & 3 Reg 2: Interpretations Consultation Bodies Local Advertisement Monitoring Measure Environmental Impact Assessment - ish Reg 3 Remains the teeth of EIA Regs Unchanged; however, EIA now means something
25 Regulations 4 - New Reg 4(1) Definition of EIA: Preparation of ES Consultation and Publicity Cross Reference steps in Regulation 26 (?Gold-plating?) Reg 4(2) Core of Assessment LPA / SoS have / have access to sufficient expertise to examine ES
26 Regulation 4 (2)-(4): Subject Matter of Assessment Focus on significant effects on listed topics. Broader scope of issues to be considered: Population and human health Biodiversity, particular species and habitats 92/43/EEC & 2009/147/EC Land Soil Operational Effects Water Air Climate Material assets Cultural heritage Landscape Major Accidents & Disasters
27 Screening Parts 2 & 3
28 Regulation 6 (2) (a) (f) Enhanced screening request submission Current Screening Request - A Plan - Description of Development - Any other such information the developer wishes to provide Future Screening Request - A Plan - Description of Development - Development proposal - Sensitivities of proposed location - Aspects of Env likely to be significantly affected - Description of likely significant effects from a list of specifics - Any other information, developer wishes to provide incl: mitigation
29 Regulation 76: Screening Transitional Arrangements Screening Screen request / screened prior to 16 May 2017 follow former 2011 Regs (as amended) screening in future. Screened on / after 16 May new Regulation for Screening. Potentially complex LPA to track for next few years. As such Consultants need to proactively manage for clients
30 Part 4: Preparing ES
31 Regulations Scoping Opinions Scoping Directions Reg 17 Informing LPA of intention to submit an ES Triggers LPA to contact CBs who are required to contact developer and indicate the environmental information they have available.
32 Part 5: ES Submission & Decisions
33 Regulation 18 Reg 18(3) Minimum Content of ES Makes reference to amended Schedule 4, reasonable alternatives amends Reg 18(4) ES based on latest scoping opinion Reg 18(5) Developer ensure ES prep Competent Experts Statement outlining expertise / qualifications
34 Reasonable Alternatives Schedule 4 (2) & (3) Remain developer led studied by the developer However, more effort may be needed in ES: reasonable alternatives = (for example in terms of develop nt design, technology, location, size and scale), and Indication of main reasons selecting chosen option, incl: comparison of the environmental effects. Plus An outline of the likely evolution of baseline scenario without implementation of the project
35 Scoping Scoping remains: Where requested by developer, a LPA will issue opinion on scope and level of detail for ES. LPA consult developer and authorities before it gives opinion. New element: Environmental Statement must be based on scoping opinion where provided = Regulation 18 (4) (a)
36 ES = based on Scoping Opinion Concerns raised as risk to iterative and proportionate EIA. DCLG and NI consultations attempt to address in draft Regs: based on the most recent scoping opinion or direction issued (so far as the proposed development remains materially the same as the proposed development to that opinion or direction) What does this mean? - Can a 2 nd / 3 rd scoping opinion be requested? - What % of development must remain materially the same AND who makes this judgement?
37 Regulations 25 and 26 Reg 25 - Further Info Requests Directly relevant to reaching reasoned concs Suspend determination Reg 26 LPA / SoS Examine Env info Reach Reasoned Conclusions on Sign Effects Integrate Conclusions into decision If grant PP, consider whether monitor Up-to-date conclusions & Monitoring detail
38 Regulation 27: Co-ordination HRA 2014/52/EU require: HD & BD links. [Optional: WFD, IED, SEA, etc] Joint / Co-ordinated approaches available UK Approach = Consistent across 22 EIA Regimes! Co-ordinated HRA and EIA, but NO wider linkages in Regulations Co-ordinated by LPA / SoS
39 Part 6: Directions and Decisions Availability Reg 29 Info accompany Decision Reasoned conclusions Conditions Design features & mitigation monitoring
40 Parts Specific cases 8. Unauthorised development 9. ROMP 10. Sign Transboundary Effects 11. Exemptions
41 Part 12: Miscellaneous Reg 64: Objectivity & Bias Reg 71: Review EIA Regs Reg 76: Transition and Revocation
42 Transitional Arrangements Regulation 76 Screening Screened prior to 16 May 2017 follow existing screening in future. Screened on / after 16 May new Regulation for Screening. The Rest of EIA Amends Scoping request / ES submission pre-16 May, existing Regs. Scoping request / ES sub on / after 16 May, new Regs. Potentially complex for CA / LPA to track for next few years.
