5.2 CHECK LIST METHOD
The detailed impact analysis and form the curse of the environmental impact
assessment one has to use a checklist method for identifying the possible impact
during and after the completion of the proposed cogeneration power plant. The
check list include modification of regime, land transformation and construction,
resource extraction, processing, land alternation, resource renewal, changes in
traffic, waste replacement and treatment, chemical treatment and accident has to be assessed. This comprehensive and user friendly checklist is invaluable aid for
several activities of EIA, particularly scoping and defining baseline studies. The
check list has been prepared for non-specialist and enables much time consuming work to be carried out in advance of expert input. It includes extensive data collection sheets. The collected data can then be used to answer a series of questions to identify major impacts and identify shortage of data. The
result sheet from the checklist is reproduces in the following table 4.
