ABSTRACT

This letter looks at whether important changes introduced to the Polish EIA Act over the last decade (with regard to scoping, cooperation, the rights of the public concerned and non-governmental organisations) have led to simplified EIA as well as to simplified development consent processes. In addition, current draft modifications (the EIA Amendment Draft 2022) are also reviewed with regard to their potential to lead to simplification. It is found that to date, rather than simplifying EIA, amendments have resulted in more complexity and have led to increased uncertainty and risks, in particular for investors.

是否有任何 EIA 简化？：对波兰系统程序方面的思考

摘要

这封信审视了过去十年对波兰环境影响评估法的重要改变（关于范围界定、合作、相关公众和非政府组织的权利）是否导致了简化的环境影响评估以及简化的开发许可程序. 此外，还审查了当前的修改草案（2022 年 EIA 修正案草案）是否有可能导致简化。结果发现，迄今为止，修正案并没有简化 EIA，而是导致更加复杂，并导致不确定性和风险增加，尤其是对投资者而言。
