a seminar by
Dr. Steve Bonnell
Adjunct Professor, Environmental Policy Institute, School of Science and the Environment, Grenfell Campus
Environmental Assessment Practice Leader, Amec Foster Wheeler
Overview: In this Environmental Policy Institute seminar, Dr. Bonnell will provide an
overview of environmental assessment (EA) principles and the various EA processes that
apply to proposed development projects in Newfoundland and Labrador. Based on his
experience as an EA practitioner and his research in this field, he will also explore various
enablers and impediments to the EA process being viewed and used by developers and
other EA participants as an “environmental planning” process, rather than simply as a
regulatory approval and “permitting” requirement.
