Description

The practical application of strategic environmental assessment (SEA) is becoming increasingly common.

A growing number of SEAs are being undertaken around the world, and several countries have issued guidance on how these should be carried out.

However, few countries as yet have formal SEA regulations, and few completed SEAs have demonstrated all the elements of current best practice.

The Practice of Strategic Environmental Assessment aims to provide a unique analysis of SEAs which have been undertaken, drawing on a variety of methods and circumstances to illustrate how best practice can be achieved, and providing inspiration for those considering studying, commission or carrying out an SEA.

Part I sets the rest of the book in context, giving a review of international SEA guidance and regulations, and discussing models and methodologies.

Part II then analyses a comprehensive set of case studies from countries which have extensive experience in SEA, or which provide particularly good examples.

The case studies are discussed in three sections ? sectoral SEAs, SEAs of land-use plans and SEAs of policies ? and provide examples of different scales and approaches, as well as country-specific experience.

The final chapter draws out some constraints to effective SEA, as well as positive themes which show how effective SEA can contribute to wider environmental assessment.

Written by an international team of SEA practitioners and experts, this volume will be of particular use to students of environmental policy and management, environmental consultants, local authorities, policy-makers and anyone involved in the commissioning, process or review of SEAs.
