Strategic Environmental Assessment. Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA) is a legal requirement under the Environmental Assessment (Scotland) Xxx 0000 that applies to all plans, programmes and strategies (known as ‘PPS’). This Single Outcome Agreement (SOA) – including the SOA Action Plan which is Part Three of the Agreement – is a high level executive summary of goals, targets and existing plans, programmes and strategies. It is therefore a strategic document which does not describe in detail how the targets will be achieved. In addition, the detailed plans, programmes and strategies sitting below the SOA will continue to be subject to Strategic Environmental Assessment as appropriate, in line with the legislation. Whilst a number of these will have an environmental impact, the level of environmental impact of the SOA in itself and as a whole is likely to be minimal. In summary, having regard to the terms of the 2005 Act and the content of the SOA, it is our view that there is therefore no requirement to expose the SOA to a Strategic Environmental Assessment.
Strategic Environmental Assessment. The Institute will prepare a Strategic Environmental Assessment and an Environmental Management Plan and integrate these into the Institute Implementation Plan. These two documents will address the overarching environmental management policies and guidelines for the Institute, as well as the environmental management functions, including waste management, recycling, greenhouse gas, etc. All activities of the Institute will be evaluated against these policies and guidelines. Environmental assessments of the Institute’s initiatives and projects will also be carried out. All project managers will complete set-up forms and checklists when new projects are initiated to categorize the project/initiatives in terms of environmental impact. This information will be used to determine the scope of the environmental activities (including baseline data collection, monitoring and auditing) that will be required throughout project implementation. Project reporting mechanisms will also be established and monitored. Coalition Member institutions have in-house expertise to produce the Strategic Environmental Assessment and Environmental Management Plan and ensure positive impact on the environment of the Institute activities. Dr. Dirk van Zyl (Professor and UBC’s Chair of Mining and the Environment) will be the environmental technical lead. Other in-house environmental specialists are also available to provide additional support if required. Due to the wide geographical distribution of the Institute’s projects, regional contacts will be contracted on an as-needed basis to advise project teams with respect to cultural aspects, local regulatory awareness and logistics. If needed, the Institute could also call upon the expertise of Strategic Partners to support regional and country specific implementations of project environmental plans and in operational programming.
