Discussion
Public hearing is conducted .........
Answer: C
The public hearing is held after preparation of the EIA (draft).
Under India's EIA Notification, 2006, the sequence is screening, scoping (with Terms of Reference), preparation of the draft EIA report, public consultation including a public hearing, appraisal, and then the decision on environmental clearance. The draft report is made available so that local people can comment on it at the hearing.
The hearing cannot come before the Terms of Reference or site selection, because there is no report yet, and it would be pointless after clearance has already been granted.
