Abstract: | The proposed project involves construction and set up of a new sewage treatment plant on Adaaran
Select Meedhupparu resort. Development of such structures require the submission of an
environmental impact assessment report as specified in the EIA Regulations of Maldives that came
effective in 2007. A scoping meeting to agree on the Terms of Reference (ToR) was held at EPA on 11th
May 2011. Based on the description of project components at the scoping meeting it was agreed
among the stakeholders that a full EIA would not be required for the project. This was based on the
small scale of the project and also its related impacts based on the environmental setting and location
of the project. It was decided that an Initial Environmental Evaluation (IEE) would be sufficient.
This Initial Environmental Evaluation report thus fulfils the requirements specified in the Terms of
Reference prepared for this project as the output of the scoping meeting held at EPA between the EIA
consultant, proponent, representatives from EPA and other relevant stakeholders. In preparing the
report, consideration has been given to cover the environmental requirements that need to be
covered by EIA regulations giving due consideration to the scale, location and usage of the project and
its outputs. The Terms of Reference for the project was approved by EPA on 5th June 2011. A copy of
the ToR for this project is given in Appendix 1.
This IEE was based on the fieldwork visit by the consultant to Adaaran Select Meedhupparu Resort in
June 2011 to collect site specific information on the project and qualitatively assess the environmental
components that would be affected from the implementation of the project. |
