Activities and/or projects on public or private property that require the execution of any of the above works, embankments or earthworks in general, which are detailed in the text, are subject to an environmental impact assessment. All the above activities require prior authorisation by the Government.
The Environmental Impact Assessment of projects or activities shall identify, describe and appropriately assess the direct and indirect effects of a project on human beings, fauna and flora, water, air, climate and landscape, as well as the interaction between these factors and material assets and cultural heritage.
