Environmental Impact Assessment Report Template: Example Format and Sample

An environmental impact assessment report allows stakeholders to address potential issues before they become problems, allowing for changes and preventing irreversible damage to the environment. This encourages inclusive and transparent planning, giving everyone a voice in the project. The environmental impact assessment also ensures compliance with environmental laws, regulations and standards. As a result, projects become not only profitable but also environmentally and socially responsible.

A well-structured environmental impact assessment report format should always include the following sections:

• Project or proposal title
• Location or site details
• Proponent details (such as the organisation, contact person, postal address and contact details)
• Assessment completion date
• Description of proposed action (such as objective/s, justification, timeframes, legislative requirements, community and stakeholder consultation details, etc.)
• Description of the environment and proposals likely impacts
• Summary of impact measures
• Signoff field for the assessor to complete the report
