The new legislation demands developers to include local public views in the first stage of EIA reports. This greatly enhances citizens’ rights to express their views about large development projects.
Environmental impact assessments are currently divided into two stages. Those required by law to carry out an EIA must compile an EIA report which is to be submitted to the EPA or local Environmental Protection Bureau (EPB) for review. This report is known as the First Stage EIA. After review by the EPA or EPB, if the development is suspected of having a serious environmental impact, the developer must proceed to the Second Stage EIA.
As for the timing of public hearings, according to current regulations, those developers whose First Stage EIA report has passed the review session should hold a public hearing after receiving a permit from the relevant competent authority and before beginning construction. Those developers required to proceed to a Second Stage EIA should make the EIA report open to the public after the announced expiration date; these actions should be simultaneously carried out along with the Second Stage EIA. The EPA explains that according to the current status of reviews carried out by various levels of environmental protection agencies, about 75% of development activities pass the First Stage EIA, meaning that the EIA report has already passed reviews and a development permit has already been obtained before a public hearing has been held. Many citizens have protested this framework, as it often reduces the public hearing to a briefing on development that has already been permitted, giving citizens no opportunity to participate.
To rectify this problem, the EPA revised regulations in 2004, hoping to move up the scheduling of public hearings and increase methods for public participation. While this regulation was being revised, developers were worried that holding public hearings in advance would have an impact on development plans, and increased citizen participation would prolong the time required to compile EIA reports. As full citizen participation and environmental action are already global trends, it behooves developers to cease evasive behaviour and take initiatives to engage in constructive dialogue with the public.
According to the newly revised work guidelines (criteria), developers can publicly invite local citizens or related organizations to meetings concurrently during the period it takes to compile EIA reports. The developer can share accurate data with citizens by recording the dates of surveys and investigations on the environmental status of the proposed development site. This method should not prolong the work schedule. Developers can also take steps beforehand to understand the concerns of citizens and related groups, and come up with response measures in advance. Doing so will shorten the time required to supply this information later when their EIA report undergoes review.
The revised regulation, promulgated on 22 December 2004, requires that developers publicly invite local citizens or related organizations to convene a meeting before their EIA report is written up. Developers are also required to compile a report on what measures they have done to communicate with citizens and how they have responded to citizen concerns. An advisory stipulation has also been added, recommending developers to deem whether it is necessary to hold further public hearings, meetings or discussions to publicly display plans or use other appropriate means to allow citizens to participate and express their views. , 欄位全文的內容是A new era of citizen participation in environmental impact assessments has dawned.

A new era of citizen participation in environmental impact assessments has dawned.
