Public hearing is conducted

  • A.Prior to site selection
  • B.Prior to approval of Terms of Reference
  • C.After preparation of EIA
  • D.After environmental clearance

Answer: C

A public hearing is conducted after the preparation of the EIA, since it is held on the draft EIA report and its executive summary. Under the Indian EIA notification, the hearing gives local people and others affected the chance to comment on the project and its predicted impacts, and the comments are placed before the appraisal committee. Site selection and the Terms of Reference come earlier, in screening and scoping, and the environmental clearance is the decision made after the hearing, so it cannot come first.
