• Pipelines through wetlands
• River crossings’strategy
• Red data bird species
• Land management• Biodiversity• Non-WGW marine
mammals• Benthos (dredging

fisheries
• Beach landing facility, OPF
• Air quality, noise & groundwater
• Steller’s Sea-eagle
• Road safety
• Solid waste management
• Oil spill response
• Geohazards and seismicity
• Occupational hygiene and safety
• Major design changes
Dual Approach
Fundamental differences between Russian environmental approval and international environmental decision-making processes that cannot be fully resolved through application of goal-setting standards
Leading to:Risk of misalignment between decision-making processesDifficulty in providing HSE assurance for decisions taken at each stage of major capital projectsUncertainty regarding HSE compliance during execution of each stage of major capital projects

Public Consultation in Practice
Russian FederationTwo-stages: TEO-I and TEO-C.Restricted to single public hearings on EIAsLargely restricted to the affected population within boundaries of the project area.
International EIALarger aspect of the EIA processUndertaken throughout the project cyclePublic hearings, interviewing and questionnaires/surveys, use of media (e.g. adverts), printed materials (e.g. newsletters) and information sessions/roadshows.Includes interest groups (e.g. NGO’s, academic) ESPOO Convention (1997) – transboundary impacts‘Spirit’ of international approach captured in the Aarhus Convention (1998).
