The NCEA commented on draft sector guidelines for EIA in Georgia and provided recommendations for their improvement.

Significant details

The NCEA was asked to comment on sector guidelines that were developed for EIA in Georgia. It issued an advice of the secretariat, in which some of the main comments were:

  • The guidelines provide a lot of information and can provide good guidance;
  • They are however not user-friendly due to their layout as a legal document, unclear structuring, and high information density.

Recommendations were given to improve the issue of user-friendliness. Apart from these general comments, specific comments were provided on the guidelines for the waste sector, the roads sector, and the ports sector.
