Answer: B
Correct answer: A-2, B-4, C-1, D-3
Four instruments, four jobs. Environmental impact assessment identifies significant effects before the decision is taken. Habitats assessment is the narrower and more demanding test applied where a designated site may be affected. A marine licence permits works below the tideline; planning permission permits development above it. A coastal scheme crossing the shoreline generally needs both.
