A vital role played by FMEnv relates to the approval of Environmental Impact Assessments (EIA). New oil and gas projects require EIA approved by the ministry before any construction can commence. Public Hearing has recently been introduced as an innovation to the approval process. Members of the wider community, particularly in the Niger Delta now have a forum to modify the way potential impacts are mitigated by project sponsors. The Ministry has served as the policy champion for the elimination of gas flares in Nigeria by 2008 and ensuring the country’s adherence to the Kyoto Protocol. | ||
