Regulations 2(1) and 9A
Textual Amendments
1. The information to be provided shall include at least:—N.I.
(a)a description of the project comprising information on the site, design, size and other relevant features of the project;
(b)a description of the likely significant effects of the project on the environment;
(c)a description of the features of the project and/or measures envisaged in order to avoid, prevent or reduce and, if possible offset likely significant adverse effects on the environment;
(d)a description of the reasonable alternative studied by the developer, which are relevant to the project and its specific characteristics, and an indication of the main reasons for the option chosen, taking into account the effects of the project on the environment;
(e)a non-technical summary of the information referred to in sub-paragraphs (a) to (d); and
(f)any additional information specified in Part 2 of this Schedule relevant to the specific characteristics of a particular project or type of project and to the environmental features likely to be effected.
1. Description of the project, including in particular:—N.I.
(a)a description of the location of the project;
(b)a description of the physical characteristics of the whole project including, where relevant, requisite demolition works and the land-use requirements during the construction and operational phases;
(c)a description of the main characteristics of the operational phase of the project (in particular any production process), for instance, energy demand and energy used, nature and quantity of the materials and natural resources (including water, land, soil and biodiversity) used;
(d)an estimate, by type and quantity, of expected residues and emissions (such as water, air, soil and subsoil pollution, noise, vibration, light, heat, radiation) and quantities and types of waste produced during the construction and operation phases.
2. A description of the reasonable alternatives (for example in terms of project design, technology, location, size and scale) studied by the developer, which are relevant to the proposed project and its specific characteristics, and an indication of the main reasons for selecting the chosen option, including a comparison of the environmental effects.N.I.
3. A description of the relevant aspects of the current state of the environment (baseline scenario) and an outline of the likely evolution thereof without implementation of the project as far as natural changes from the baseline scenario can be assessed with reasonable effort on the basis of the availability of environmental information and scientific knowledge.N.I.
4. A description of the factors specified in regulation 9(3) likely to be significantly affected by the project: population, human health, biodiversity (for example fauna and flora), land (for example land take), soil (for example organic matter, erosion, compaction, scaling), water (for example hydromorphological changes, quantity and quality), air, climate (for example greenhouse gas emissions, impacts relevant to adaptation), material assets, cultural heritage, including architectural and archaeological aspects, and landscapes.N.I.
5. A description of the likely significant effects of the project on the environment resulting from, including:—N.I.
(a)the construction and existence of the project, including, where relevant, demolition works;
(b)the use of natural resources, in particular land, soil, water and biodiversity, considering as far as possible the sustainable availability of these resources;
(c)the emission of pollutants, noise, vibration, light heat and radiation, the creation of nuisances, and the disposal and recovery of waste;
(d)the risks to human health, cultural heritage or the environment (for example due to accidents or disasters);
(e)the cumulation of effects with other existing and/or approved projects, taking into account any existing environmental problems relating to areas of particular environmental importance likely to be affected or the use of natural resources;
(f)the impact of the project on climate (for example the nature and magnitude of green house gas emissions) and the vulnerability of the project to climate change;
(g)the technologies and the substances used.
The description of the likely significant effects on the factors specified in regulation 9(3) should cover the direct effects and any indirect, secondary, cumulative, transboundary, short-term, medium-term and long-term, permanent and temporary, positive and negative effects of the project. This description should take into account the environmental protection objectives established [F2in Union legislation or under other national legislation] which are relevant to the project.

6. A description of the forecasting methods or evidence, used to identify and assess the significant effects on the environment, including details of difficulties (for example technical deficiencies or lack of knowledge) encountered compiling the required information and the main uncertainties involved.N.I.
7. A description of the measures envisaged to avoid, prevent, reduce or, if possible, offset any identified significant adverse effects on the environment and, where appropriate, of any proposed monitoring arrangements (for example the preparation of a post-project analysis). That description should explain the extent, to which significant adverse effects on the environment are avoided, prevented, reduced or offset, and should cover both the construction and operational phases.N.I.
