Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of Marine Structures - A Case Study

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

The purpose of this research is to outline the issues that needed to be considered when establishing an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) for ports, harbors, marinas and other related facilities. The study explains the steps done when preparing the EIA study for establishing four jetties in front of four hotels and two jetties in front of two marinas, the site lies within a number of touristic villages in El Sharm El Quible region on the coastal area of the Red Sea, located 34 km south of El Qusair city, Red Sea Governorate. The EIA study includes site selection, baseline environmental, project impact on the environment,environmental impact assessment, mitigation measurement, and environmental management plan. The study will examine all aspects and activities of the study area in terms of the impact on the environmental components, provide the best alternatives to preserve the environment, and avoid potential negative effects during the establishment and operation of the project in order to outline the issues that need to be considered when establishing an EIA for ports, harbors, marinas and other related facilities.
However, as each development intervention is unique, the one size fits all is not applicable. Key issues may differ from project to another. Accordingly, specific key issues may be identified through a planning focus meeting and through consultation with the existing community.
