NEB to dissolve key EIA panels

The National Environmental Board (NEB) will dissolve three expert panels that study Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) reports for government projects and other activities, in a bid to end what officials say is a double standard in consideration of EIA reports on government projects versus private



Office of Natural Resources and Environmental Policy and Planning (ONEP) secretary-general Santi Boonprakub said his agency proposed the plan to dissolve the three panels at an NEB meeting chaired by Deputy Prime Minister Plodprasop Suraswadi on Monday.
