Lessons Learned
Alternative project considerations can offer a backdrop of
information regarding different forms of meeting the project under questions
specifications, however most of these are not taken seriously in light of the
main goal of promoting the project under question.
Following the guidelines religiously with no deviation or
outside thought should not be encouraged. This can leave room for information
that has not been taken into consideration by the joint review panel to be
ignored.
The Alternative Means of carrying out the project are the
most important subjects to understand well – when reviewing an EIS
– as they normally act as the backbone to which each assessment is based
upon.
