The Environmental
Assessment Office (EAO) is a neutral provincial agency that
coordinates assessment of the impacts of major development proposals
in British Columbia. It reports to the Honourable George Abbott,
Minister of Sustainable Resource Management.
The Environmental Assessment Report describes
the works during the construction phase of the Sea-to-Sky Highway
Improvement Project, along with operations and maintenance activities,
and works associated with the decommissioning and abandonment of
construction works and highway facilities.
The assessment process results in recommendations to either grant
or refuse an Environmental Assessment certificate. The recommendations
are considered, and a decision made by the Minister of Sustainable
Resource Management, Minister of Water, Land and Air Protection
and a third appropriate minister.
